Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-Nine: The Clothing Exhibition

In fact, Gu Chen had never worried about making money.

If selling goji berries and medicinal materials could make money, wouldn’t selling Spirit Spring Water make money as well?

Naturally, it was impossible.

Although because of the early arrangements to target Xu Qingmu, this batch of Spirit Spring Water wouldn’t make a lot of profit.

However, it should be enough to make up for some of the losses that the Ji Family had incurred during this period.

That’s right, Gu Chen had never planned to accept this money from the beginning.

Elder Master Ji had used so many human and material resources in Chuan City to help him do business.

And now he had even been angered to the point of vomiting blood and being hospitalized, causing great losses to the Ji Family’s business.

Gu Chen naturally couldn’t just sit back and ignore this, especially since the other party was Pianran’s biological father.

He thought it was about time for him to show some filial piety as well.

As for the business in Chuan City that couldn’t be carried out, other cities’ channels were still open.

It was just that they weren’t as strong as the Ji Family’s sales network.

Goji berry retail and the like, after losing the Ji Family’s factory, couldn’t be done in the short term either.

It could only be said that it did have an impact on Gu Chen, but it was not as big as Bai Guang had imagined.

Moreover, this was not Gu Chen’s only business.

As for the impact of a large number of high-quality medicinal materials on the market, it actually did not affect the Ji Family itself.

After all, the Ji Family’s main business in Chuan City was still department stores and catering, and proprietary Chinese medicines were not their forte.

Although Elder Master Ji had previously been keen on using Gu Chen’s goji berries to create a brand for the Ji Family.

To open up a new source of income for the Ji Family’s business.

But unfortunately, Xu Qingmu outmaneuvered them right from the start, leading to a severe drop in reputation now.

Although a lot of money was lost, it did not fundamentally affect the Ji Family’s business.

As for what happens to Chuan City’s proprietary Chinese medicine market next.

It would have nothing to do with the Ji Family in the short term.

Afterward, Gu Chen and Butler Bai Guang talked a lot in the warehouse, until the light of dawn began to appear the next day.

Only then did Bai Guang use the Ji Family’s special channels to quietly take away the batch of Spirit Spring Water from Haicheng.

...

A few days later, Gu Chen’s clothing store was finally ready before the exhibition.

Looking at his new store, located in the prime commercial area of Haicheng, Gu Chen felt quite satisfied.

Soon after, the Haicheng Clothing Exhibition arrived as scheduled.

This time it was held in a newly renovated large sports stadium.

Although from Gu Chen’s future perspective, the grand event was somewhat rudimentary.

Even the set design, runway, lighting, and camera coordination and so on, could not be considered very professional.

But in the context of this era, it was already considered a rare large-scale urban event for the public.

More importantly, the internet had not yet become widespread, even among the residents of a city like Haicheng.

Their leisure activities on normal days were not exactly abundant.

Even in many households, there were only a few TV channels.

The signal was intermittent, not as stable as a radio.

However, this fashion show, preparing to align with international standards, was extremely important and received high attention in Haicheng.

It was comparable to an all-out carnival for the entire city.

On the day of the exhibition, the streets outside Haicheng Sports Stadium were lined with a long queue.

Glancing from one end, those arriving late couldn’t even see where the line ended.

And at the entrance of the exhibition venue, all sorts of rarely-seen luxury cars filled the parking lot.

You might occasionally spot a few cars whose prices were more commonly affordable, but if you took another look at the license plates.

It was enough to immediately instill a sense of awe about the organization to which the car belonged.

At this moment, Gu Chen held his daughter Tangtang in his arms, her face brimming with excitement as she looked around.

His other hand was holding onto Ji Pianran, who seemed a bit nervous; the family of three made their way directly through the crowded throng.

Gu Chen felt fortunate that, as one of the clothing manufacturers attending, he had access to a special passage and didn’t have to queue; otherwise, with today’s turnout.

They might have had to sleep on the ground and line up until tomorrow and still not get in.

"Daddy, Mommy, there are so many pretty clothes around here~"

Tangtang’s adorable, big eyes were wide open at the moment.

Her little head turned in every direction, finding everything exceptionally novel.

After all, for Tangtang, who had always stayed in the village up until now, this was the first time she had experienced an event of such massive commercial scale.

"Do you like it here, Tangtang?" Gu Chen asked with a smile.

Without hesitation, Tangtang nodded her little head vigorously.

"I like it! I super like it, Daddy! I want to buy lots and lots of pretty clothes; they feel so great to wear!"

"Hahaha, buy whatever you want, and later you can pick them out with your mom."

Gu Chen said with a smile, as the reason he brought his whole family was exactly to take his daughter and wife shopping.

Especially seeing Ji Pianran occasionally looking so worried these days.

Gu Chen felt even more heartache, wishing he could trade all his wealth

for a happy smile from his wife.

"Wow, thank you, Daddy! Mommy, hug!"

Tangtang happily kissed Gu Chen on the face, then ran into Ji Pianran’s arms.

Seeing her daughter so happy, Ji Pianran couldn’t help but reveal a tender smile.

"Husband, our exhibition area is up ahead, right?" Ji Pianran asked curiously.

"That’s right!"

Gu Chen nodded, and soon the family of three arrived at the exhibition space they had rented in advance at the venue.

By now, Wang Zhong and a few salespeople had already changed into uniforms and had started bustling about early on.

Seeing Gu Chen and Ji Pianran arriving, the staff warmly greeted their boss and lady boss.

"President Gu, you’ve arrived."

"Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, good to see you."

Seeing everyone’s respectful demeanors, Gu Chen couldn’t help but become moved for a moment.

He mused about how just a few months ago, he was nothing but an ordinary person.

But now, he had become somewhat famous as an entrepreneur in Haicheng.

Even without counting the farmland contracted in his hometown, he now had over one hundred employees under him.

Just then, the lights inside the venue suddenly dimmed, followed by the loudspeakers placed all around.

At that moment, they emitted a deafening sound.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first Haicheng International Clothing Exhibition..."

Gu Chen felt a jolt in his heart as he heard the announcer’s voice through the loudspeakers, knowing the exhibition was finally about to begin officially, and his gaze immediately turned towards the huge runway opposite.
