Chapter 118: Zhao Bin Appears

When Jiang Lu came the next day, it was Zhou Chunhe who drove Wang Ziqiang's tractor to send her over, along with the sewing machine.

The simple shed had been set up, and Jiang Lu bought some extra hangers and hung up the clothes one by one.

As soon as the stall was set up, a group of people gathered around to watch the fun.

"What are you doing? To set up a stage?" asked the old man.

"Uncle, we are selling clothes." Zhou Chunhe replied.

"Oh my god, how can you sell clothes to build such a big shed?" The uncle didn't believe it.

"Uncle, we have a lot of clothes. Come and take a look and see if you like anything. The quality is guaranteed."

"Are you going to pay for it if it breaks?" a young man joked.

"If it's worn out within seven days, we'll compensate you." Jiang Lu answered the call.

Zhou Chunhe pushed her and whispered, "You dare to say this."

"Of course, the product must be of high quality, and it should match the clothes for everyone. You can't recommend the wrong product, otherwise people will return it when they take it home."

"And mine." There was another girl standing next to the girl, and they came together.

"Girl, please help me choose men's models. My man is about this tall," the aunt said, "about a hundred pounds."

"That's unheard of, Comrade Jiang Lu, aren't you afraid that people will wear it for you and take it back?" Fu Peiya was even worried for her.

Fu Peiya also wanted to come over to help, but Jiang Lu didn't agree and just let her wear clothes and act as a living model.

It was almost noon, and there were fewer people on the street. Children were after school and workers were getting off work. They were all rushing towards home, and fewer people stopped to look at their clothes.

"Let your mother-in-law take care of the baby."

"If you talk to people and talk to ghosts, if they are happy, the business will be half successful." Jiang Lu said while straightening his clothes.

"What do you think of this one?" Jiang Lu took out a quilted Chinese tunic suit, "The color matches your outfit perfectly."

"Okay." The girl waited aside and looked at other clothes casually.

"Free modification?" The two of them said in unison, never hearing such a good thing.

"There is such a good thing, girl, please see if there are any clothes suitable for my old lady." The aunt asked.

After finishing this work, Jiang Lu made a rough calculation and found that he had sold more than 20 pieces of clothing.

"What about the other half?"

Fu Peiya curled her lips, "I can't bear to leave it to my hometown. My mother-in-law can't take care of it herself, and the child can't take care of it even more."

"Okay, that's it." The aunt said cheerfully.

"Here, you two have a look." Jiang Lu handed over a pair of jeans.

"It's okay." Jiang Lu smiled, "When I've finished it, you can go back and do your work."

"You returned the goods?" Fu Peiya was shocked again.

The aunt was so elated by Jiang Lu's words that she immediately put down the vegetable basket and picked up clothes. There were three pieces in one pick, and she had them all ready inside and out.

Jiang Lu hurriedly stopped what he was doing and replied, "Yes, I'll look for it for you two."

At noon, Fu Peiya would invite Jiang Lu to eat at a state-owned restaurant.

Fu Peiya went to order food and asked Jiang Lu to help take a look at her shop.

Jiang Lu smiled at her and mouthed "thank you".

"Okay." Jiang Lu had no objection.

"Looking at what you said, she is an old woman. She is not old at all. If she buys clothes in a more festive color, she will still be a flower in the village."

"It's okay, this is called service." Jiang Lu thought, this has been popular in later generations, she just learned from it.

"Yes, the fitting room is inside." Fu Peiya reacted and ushered the person in.

"I usually make my own clothes, so it's not a problem to change the trousers. I don't have an iron here. You can take it back and put hot water in a dental vat and iron the edges, and it won't be visible at all." Jiang Lu said with a smile.

"Comrade, your craftsmanship is really good." The girl praised.

"Do you want to do it with me?" Jiang Lu invited.

"The trouser legs are on the floor." A girl felt a little regretful.

"I really didn't realize that you are so proficient in business." Fu Peiya was completely impressed.

"This..." Jiang Lu looked around. They were all open areas, so it was really not easy to try.

"Can I try on clothes here?" the girl said awkwardly.

Jiang Lu packed all the clothes for the aunt and told her to bring them back if they didn't fit. The aunt paid the money and left happily with the clothes.

"Okay, then cut it shorter for us." The two girls happily agreed.

"I have confidence in these clothes. If the customer looks good on them, why would they want to return them? Unless they didn't look good when they tried them on and were tricked into buying them. They will regret it when they get home. I recommend this to people sincerely."

If it's suitable, why would someone back out?" Jiang Lu said with a smile.

Jiang Lu stepped on the sewing machine smoothly, raised and lowered the knife, threaded the needle and thread with skillful and natural movements, and re-hemmed the jeans. After finishing, there was no trace of cutting at all.

"It's high, it's really high." Fu Peiya praised repeatedly.

"Sister, I sell clothes. If the clothes or trousers are too long, I can trim them for free." Jiang Lu answered patiently.

"I, let's forget it." Fu Peiya shook his head, "Although my job is not as profitable as yours, the harvest is guaranteed despite droughts and floods, and when the child is born, I will probably be busy."

"Free." Jiang Lu nodded and confirmed again.

"Comrade, do you have these jeans in my size?" A girl came over and asked.

"I would like to go, but what about my stall? Let's just have a bowl of noodles." Jiang Lu said.

Seeing this, Jiang Lu stepped forward and said, "I have a sewing machine here, and I can shorten it for you for free. Can you think of it?"

"Return, there is no reason to return or exchange." Jiang Lu said.

"I don't want to eat noodles. I just want to eat some meat today. Can I ask them to pack it?" Fu Peiya suggested.

After the two of them tried it on, everything else looked good, but it was a little too long.

Following Jiang Lu's words, those onlookers came up to look at the clothes.

Jiang Lu smiled and said, "It's best if you can take it with you."

Fu Peiya looked at the forty yuan that Jiang Lu received and was really impressed, "Your method is really good."

"Okay, okay." The two girls paid and waved to Jiang Lu before leaving.

"The color and style are quite suitable," said another.

People passing by saw Jiang Lu displaying clothes and sewing machines, and asked Jiang Lu what he did.

Jiang Lu looked at a tall figure walking in the distance. At first, she thought it was Zhou Chunhe, but soon, she rejected this idea. Zhou Chunhe was taking his mother back to her parents' home today, so she would not have the time to come.

The man came closer again, wearing a windbreaker and slicked-back hair, and walked leisurely towards her.

Jiang Lu suddenly realized that this was Zhao Bin!

Is he back from the south?

Before Jiang Lu came back to her senses, Zhao Bin had already walked to her stall, smiled lightly, and asked, "Is business going well?"
