"Host, as a super professional Gourmet System, I would never do something like selling clothing designs!" the System said firmly.
"The new underwear I bought yesterday is quite comfortable. System, your improvements are excellent," Meg said with a smile.
"Of course, the System has combined the design concepts of the top underwear designers in the world to create the most stylish underwear. At the same time, it has chosen the best fabric, breathable and absorbent, and maintains the best temperature at all times. Wearing the underwear I designed..." the System said proudly.
"Tsk tsk, our super professional Gourmet System is also super professional when it comes to making underwear. If this is the case, it shouldn't be a problem to sell a few sets of clothing designs, right?" Meg interrupted the System with a teasing tone.
"This... that... that... that, of course, this matter can still be discussed. However, the host must uphold the most basic integrity of a businessman and ensure that the transaction is transparent and fair. The design cannot be sold a second time!" the System said sternly.
"System, if you sell a pair of shoes, why do you care how others wear them?" Meg curled his lips, but quickly smiled and said, "Of course, as an excellent businessman, I still agree with some of your words. As for the designs, let's sell them at the price of 20 gold coins each. You half, I half. In other words, I will pay you 10 gold coins for each design. After that, you can pack a thousand sets of women's clothing designs in one go. It would be best if they were based on the design concepts of the top designers. At the same time, they should be perfectly integrated with the style of this world to create the best women's clothing designs."
"Ding! The transaction is confirmed. 10,000 gold coins have been successfully deducted! "
"Ding! The designs are being drafted. The estimated time is 5 minutes. Host, please make the final confirmation. Do you want to add other clothing items? "
The System's cheerful voice sounded.
"Then it's settled. 800 sets of women's clothing designs, 150 sets of children's clothing designs, and 50 sets of children's clothing designs." Meg said after thinking for a while. In the end, he said with a meaty face, "System, you directly deducted 10,000 gold coins from me and gave me 100 sets of women's clothing designs. This kind of thing is too easy for a high-level System like you. This request shouldn't be too much, right? We should give them some benefits. "
"Ding! Order confirmed. 150 sets of women's clothing designs are being drafted. The order is free. "the System's voice sounded.
"Very good." A smile appeared on Meg's face. He ignored the system and continued to look at Gloria, waiting for her reply.
Gloria looked at Meg with her mouth slightly open. She thought she had been rejected by Meg. She didn't expect him to throw out an even bigger surprise in the blink of an eye. He was actually willing to design a batch of clothes for her. But what did he mean by sincerity?
If it was about expenses, Mars had already made a plan before coming here. But if it wasn't about money, could it be that Mr. Meg wants me to … do something for him? After all, I haven't seen his wife for so long … Gloria's face flashed with a hint of red. She tried her best to get rid of the strange thoughts in her head. She looked at Meg and stuttered a little, "Mr. … Mr. Meg, thank you very much for your trust. If you are willing to draw the designs for us, we are willing to pay you 100 gold coins for each design."
Gloria paused for a moment and continued with a little embarrassment, "But because the Suede doesn't have much cash on hand right now, we can only pay for 5 designs at most."
"Host! I want to increase the price! What you said is not the market price! What you are doing is cheating! "the System roared in Meg's mind.
"System, our deal has already been confirmed. If you go back on your word now, it will seriously affect my evaluation of your credibility. Honesty is the most basic quality of a merchant. Plus, this is the price she offered. I haven't accepted it yet." Meg said with a calm expression. The price of 100 gold coins was enough to see Gloria's sincerity. She was willing to gamble with the last of her money for a fabric shop that was on the brink of bankruptcy. It was also enough to see the decisiveness of this beautiful girl.
She had a keen sense for business opportunities and a decisive way of doing things … These were all qualities that a good merchant should have. Meg's impression of Gloria had been completely refreshed by her. At the same time, a plan appeared in his mind. He looked at Gloria's sincere and nervous eyes and shook his head, "100 gold coins is indeed a good price, but I want to change the way we work together."
"Change the way we work together?" Gloria looked at Meg in confusion.
"I can give you the blueprints first. You don't have to pay me. After you make the clothes and sell them, I want 20% of the net profit." Meg smiled.
"20% of the net profit …" Gloria furrowed her brows in thought. Before coming to Mars, the highest price she had ever heard of was 150 gold coins per blueprint. She had never heard of a partnership where the blueprints were split.
"But Mr. Meg, if we don't sell many of the clothes we make, the Suede fabric shop will most likely close down in a month. You won't be able to get much of a reward then." Gloria was a little worried. Even though she was quite confident in her idea, this was still a completely new idea. She didn't want Meg to take this risk with her.
"I believe in Miss Gloria's ability. I also believe that this business model will become the trend of the clothing industry in the future." Meg shook his head and said calmly, "Besides, a business without risk isn't worth investing in."
Gloria looked into Meg's eyes. She could feel the trust and encouragement in his eyes. Her conflicted heart became firm again. She nodded solemnly and said, "Alright, I accept your proposal. 20% of the net profit of every piece of clothing sold in Suede will belong to Mr. Meg."
"Also, I have a request and a suggestion." Meg said.
"Go ahead." Gloria nodded slightly.
"If Miss Gloria becomes the head of Family Moreton in the future and controls the Aden Chamber of Commerce, I hope you can abolish all the discrimination against half-breeds in the Aden Chamber of Commerce. This is my request." Meg said with a serious expression.
Gloria looked at Meg, and her eyes gradually lit up. She knew why Meg wanted this. This was a fatherly love that was even deeper than a hug. She was a little envious and touched. Without any hesitation, she nodded seriously and said, "I promise, if I become the head of the Aden Chamber of Commerce in the future, I will abolish all the discrimination against half-breeds."
Meg looked into Gloria's eyes for a while, and a smile reappeared on his face as he continued, "My suggestion is that before you release your clothes, the Suede Textiles Shop will be independent from Family Moreton. If you want to become the sole heir to Family Moreton, this will be the only business you can rely on. With this clothing shop that combines both manufacturing and sales, even if you can't become the heir to Family Moreton, you will still be able to become a renowned businesswoman in Chaos City. "
Gloria's eyes lit up even more. She stood up and bowed to Meg. "Thank you. I'll get them to speed up the process when I get back. We'll be waiting for your blueprints."
"There's no need to wait. I just happen to have three blueprints for autumn outfits. Let's make autumn outfits before autumn passes." Meg made his way over to the counter, and pulled out three blueprints for dresses from a large stack before handing them over to the surprised Gloria.
Meg shrugged with a smile, and said, "There's no need to be too surprised. Designing clothes is a hobby of mine, and I'm sure all professional tailors will be able to read these blueprints. I want all of the clothes I design to be respected, and the same goes for all of my customers."
Gloria nodded with a serious expression, and said, "I'll find the best tailors and get them to make the best clothes. Your designs definitely won't go to waste."
Meg contemplated momentarily before offering, "I know a friend who's very adept at embroidery. If you need her help, I can recommend her to work in your shop. Perhaps she'll be able to provide you with a lot of help. One of these three outfits requires some embroidery skills."
"That's great! I hope Mr. Meg can recommend her to our Suede Textiles Shop." Gloria's eyes lit up.
"I still have to ask her for her opinion." Meg nodded with a smile. He stood up, extended his right hand toward Gloria, and smiled as he said, "Then I look forward to working with you."
