Chapter 341

No one could be more excited than Wu Lei. Since coming here, money had only been flowing out without coming back in. Although he didn't show it on his face, the pressure he felt mentally could be imagined.

In any case, the products had finally been manufactured, and the effects were also very significant. As long as they were marketed properly, there was no need to worry about being unable to sell them.

Everything was within his expectations. Although Su Ying was also very happy, she was far less excited than Wu Lei.

These were the first batch of products manufactured in their factory. For now there were three types: lotion, milk, and cream. The main benefit promoted was skin whitening.

Su Ying tried some. Although she couldn't see the effects yet, it felt very refreshing and moisturizing when applied, especially during this hot summer without any greasy feel.

"Brother Wu, you and Hu Zhou worked hard over this period. The factory will still rely on you two to operate in the future. Keep up the good work. Although you don't have much shares this time, there will definitely be more opportunities for you to invest when we expand the factory and open branches in the future."

Wu Lei was not being polite either. "Okay, you said it, and I've made a mental note."

"Oh yes, the money for the machinery..."

"130,000 in total. I paid for it first. Let's wait until the factory starts making profit before paying me back." Su Ying said.

,000 was not a high price at all. What he and Hu Zhou had contacted earlier would cost 150,000, and they would have to pay a deposit first to get the machinery delivered. The two of them were also afraid of getting cheated. If they paid the money and the other party ran away, wouldn't it all go down the drain!

Moreover, with the total capital of 200,000, 120,000 was spent on the land. They really couldn't take out that much money anymore. "Okay, let's just make this agreement that the first thing is to pay back your money after we start making profit." As a shareholder, Wu Lei had the final say on the big and small matters in the factory since Su Ying had to go back to Jin Cheng while Hu Zhou knew nothing about these things.

After half a year in Shenzhen, the tense feeling in his heart finally eased a little.

Hearing about Wu Xiaohua's recent situation from Su Ying, to be honest, no matter what Liu Xuan's personality was like, Wu Lei was grateful to him for Wu Xiaohua's improvement.

He had never been a petty person, nitpicking over immediate interests right in front of him.

In his opinion, no amount of money could buy a capable person. Wu Xiaohua was very smart when she was young. It was purely because she was led astray by him and that woman, which made her become so muddled now.

If she could really change, no amount of money could buy that.

"Alright, the holiday is almost over and I have to go back too. Bring me a few sets of the new products, especially more trial kits. I plan to take them back to give to people to try to open up the sales channels." Su Ying thought and said, "The overseas market would probably not be easy to tap into. We should focus on the domestic sales first to build up our reputation. The future path would naturally become easier then."

Considering the current circumstances, domestically it was still an era of shortage for various supplies. It was easy for foreign goods to come in, but there would be some difficulty in exporting their own products out.

But Su Ying believed in her products. As long as they were effective and could build up their reputation, there would be no lack of sales channels.

The idea for the trial kits was also Su Ying's. They used small sachet packaging that contained enough product for 7 days, just the right amount of time to better showcase the effects.

"Alright, we've just about finished producing the first batch of products. Let's get them to make some more trial kits over the next few days. You can take some with you, and I'll prepare the rest to give out as free gifts at a beauty event, to attract customers..."

Su Ying couldn't make it for the trade show here, because An Zhiren had specifically taken the trip to send them over. Wu Lei also understood why, and insisted that she take the three children back instead of letting Hu Zhou send them.

As a result, the trial kits didn't need to be mailed either. Hu Zhou could just carry them by hand.

By the time they returned home, the sky had already darkened. The place where Hu Zhou lived was probably quite messy from being unoccupied for so long. It was also inappropriate for him to stay at Su Ying's place, so he could only get Hu Zhou to stay temporarily at the storefront of An Zhiren's shop for now.

Some fabric for Su Ying was still being stored there.

Hu Zhou had just left when Xiao Liu and Yue Ya were already drowsy and falling asleep. Wan Qing also closed her eyes and flopped onto the bed. Su Ying was reluctant to ask her to get up again to wash up, so she simply dampened a towel and wiped her clean.

When it was the two little ones' turn, they had already fallen deep asleep.

There was a knock on the door outside. Su Ying hurried to open it, and Old Master, Old Madam, and Su Ying were all standing outside. "I knew I heard sounds. This old fella insisted I was hearing things. As soon as we came out, I saw that the padlock on your door was unlocked, so I knew you must be back." Old Madam glared at Old Master and asked Su Ying, "Are the children all well? How come I don't see them come out?"

Especially that little rascal Xiao Liu. Usually at the slightest sound he would have run out already to see what was going on. Wan Qing was becoming more ladylike as she grew up. It was unbelievable that Su Ying used to worry that this little girl was unruly and unfeminine.

"They were tired and fell asleep indoors." Su Ying quickly moved aside to let them in.

After entering the house, Old Master asked about the factory situation. She selectively shared some good news without mentioning difficulties. Although there were quite a few small issues, they could all be resolved with some effort, so there was no need to get the elders worried over this.

Old Madam said worriedly, "I say, girl, Jin Cheng is so big and we know this place so well, yet you insist on running off to some remote corner to set up your factory. When something comes up it'll be hard for us to help out."

"Granny, don't worry. Brother Wu and Hu Zhou are trustworthy people. Being far away means they can handle things without me worrying." Su Ying was not insisting on going to that remote area on purpose. Looking at it from a long term perspective, that place had more promising prospects for future development.

For now, small scale trade had opened up. In the future there would be more and more people going there to do business. Jin Cheng was good but couldn't compare with there for the time being.

"You're a smart girl anyway." Old Madam said, "I'm old, shouldn't be worrying anymore. As long as you children are safe and happy then that's good."

"That's right Granny, I brought back gifts for you and my sisters-in-law..."

Su Ying promptly took out the skincare products she brought back. Only Old Madam's set was different from the others'. This anti-aging wrinkle set was not yet in production at their factory. Instead it was obtained from the aquaculture magnate from a few years ago who had also ventured into the beauty industry. With him blazing the trail ahead of them, Su Ying could avoid some pitfalls.

Old Madam had used it before when Su Ying claimed she had personally formulated it. Now professionally packaged, it looked even more high-end and classy.

"Is this produced in your factory?"

"Mm-hmm." Su Ying gave an ambiguous answer. "Granny, this set is specially prepared for you. Yours is the only set right now. What's currently in production is this kind for my fourth sister-in-law, more suitable for younger users."

Su Ying deliberately looked at her accusingly. "No wonder your skin looks so good. Turns out you've been secretly using the best stuff for yourself."

What woman doesn't care about looks? Of course Su Ying was no exception.

"Of course not. Didn't I bring some for fourth sister-in-law too?" Su Ying still needed to flatter and cajole. "And I brought even better stuff for you. Guaranteed that in less than half a month, fourth sister-in-law's skin will become as tender as the membrane under an eggshell. Her husband will be stunned speechless when he comes back and sees her next time."

"Oh stop teasing me." Su Ying said unhappily.
