Jin Yuanyuan's Top-Tier Life

Jin Yuanyuan was very busy because she had her eye on a new sock knitting machine. Although she didn't know much about this kind of machinery, her greatest strength was her willingness to learn and ask questions. Moreover, with the internet so developed these days, she had looked at many advanced sock knitting technologies from abroad and studied the advantages of their equipment.

She did the math: Jin Yaya Socks Factory currently has 200 sock knitting machines with a daily output of 300 pairs each, costing around 20,000 yuan each. Assuming one person manages four machines, it would need 50 employees: 30 in the shaping and heating workshop, 20 in the packaging workshop, 10 in sales, and another 20 in logistics, finance, and warehouse management… The factory currently has 180 employees, which is perfectly adequate for current production needs. However, if they could introduce advanced sock knitting machines, production could double, and the machines would be much easier to operate; one person could even manage eight machines…

In this situation, the only problem is whether there are enough orders.

After careful consideration, she felt it was worth the risk of purchasing some new equipment. She also wanted to produce floor socks, disposable cotton socks, and specialty socks to enrich Jin Yaya's product range.

Currently, Jin Yaya mainly produces ordinary cotton socks, but these are considered "mass-produced" and lack any distinctive features. Apart from some changes in the patterns, they have no special characteristics whatsoever.

Nowadays, people are living more comfortable lives, and every household is renovating. Many families have underfloor heating, so wearing a pair of non-slip floor socks at home is very comfortable. Disposable socks are very practical and versatile, similar to disposable towels or underwear, and have a large market potential. Specialty socks are more unique, designed for people with large feet. Although the quantity may not be large, if the quality is good and the designs are novel, they can still gain a group of loyal customers.

After some planning, she even considered selling her small apartment in Shanghai to buy new equipment.

Therefore, she still went back to Shanghai to find Ye Huanxi.

The two met at Starbucks in Sinan Mansions.

Ye Huanxi looked as exquisite as ever, even more stunning than before. This made Jin Yuanyuan extremely jealous, to the point of being unrecognizable. "Quickly, get your powder compact out so I can touch up my makeup."

Ye Huanxi smiled happily and took out a makeup bag for her. "I knew you were too lazy to bring such things, so I prepared everything for you."

Jin Yuanyuan pushed the tiramisu in front of her, "Eat, eat, eat a little fatter so I can look better."

"It's okay, I signed up for a yoga class and I go to practice for an hour every day after get off work. It makes me feel so good." Ye Huanxi took a big bite and said with a smile, "I've suddenly realized that being alone is pretty good. I can do whatever I want and eat whatever I want."

"That's true." Jin Yuanyuan nodded in agreement. "It's quieter when you're alone, and it's also easier to study."

"You... well, alright, you're a top student, I won't say anything more." Ye Huanxi's smile was bright, indicating she was in a good mood. "I sent all of Liu Zheng's things to him by express delivery; there's no need to see him again anyway."

"Actually, what did your parents say?" Jin Yuanyuan felt that this was not a very good question to ask.

"My parents have never liked Liu Zheng. They think his job is unstable, he lacks ambition, and he doesn't own a house... Oh well, that's just how it is," Ye Huanxi said with a wry smile. "Whatever, I guess they're probably quite happy about it."

What can be said now that things have come to this?

A balanced relationship isn't just about feelings; it involves many other factors. Therefore, it's becoming increasingly difficult for people to truly be together.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Jin Yuanyuan began to tell Ye Huanxi about her plans. Ye Huanxi was quite supportive and even offered another idea: "You remember how much we hated washing socks during our military training? So, if you really want to make disposable socks, you could add the keyword 'military training' to the beginning, and I guarantee a lot of people will buy them."

Jin Yuanyuan thought what she said made a lot of sense and immediately wrote it down in her notebook.

"By the way, let me stay in your small apartment for a few days. I'll lend you 4 yuan so you can buy four new machines to try out." Ye Huanxi was surprisingly generous and magnanimous.

"Why?" Jin Yuanyuan asked immediately.

"I've put my house up for sale. I can't keep thinking about that man every time I come home..." There was still a hint of sadness in Ye Huanxi's eyes.

"Alright then." Jin Yuanyuan could only nod again.

Now that we have new sock knitting machines, it's time to start developing new business and new production methods. Things are complicated, but we have to do it step by step to find out what problems we will encounter and then solve them.

The first batch of disposable socks was produced. To test the effect, Jin Yuanyuan sent them directly to her friends in security, fire protection, transportation and other fields so that they could try them on and give suggestions for improvement.

Surprisingly, the group really liked them, finding the socks very convenient, and several people even bought over a thousand pairs directly from her.

This definitely boosted Jin Yuanyuan's morale, and she immediately used the new equipment to produce three thousand pairs of shoes, which she then sold in her live stream. She then launched into her usual casual conversation, talking about the "incidents" that occurred during celebrity security operations.

They chatted idly for an hour, and three thousand pairs of socks were sold.

What to do next?

Continue production.

Jin Yuanyuan was quite hardworking; she even went to meet a client in place of Cao Xiaoyu, who had a fever.

Cao Xiaoyu said that this customer was quite meticulous and asked her to bring the instruction manual for the new sock knitting machine's parameters, just in case she was asked about these things.

Jin Yuanyuan carried a large bag to meet the client. She had even made a special detour to Wanghu Pavilion to return the military overcoat she had worn that day. Zhao Zhuoran was washing dishes in the kitchen, and he looked surprisingly handsome, which made Jin Yuanyuan very jealous.

"Why do you, the boss, have to wash the dishes?"

Zhao Zhuoran wore a black apron over his white shirt, with the sleeves rolled up, revealing the muscles in his forearms and giving him a sense of strength.

"Be familiar with every step of the process so you won't panic in any situation."

"That sounds reasonable," Jin Yuanyuan agreed, because she was the same way. However, facing this boy five years younger than her, she found it difficult to have any improper thoughts. After all, her mind was currently filled with the 30 million betting agreement.

"Sister Yuanyuan, where are you going with all this stuff?" Zhao Zhuoran asked, wiping his hands.

"Meeting clients, meeting clients, meeting clients." Jin Yuanyuan sighed. "A boss who makes work safety products said he'd like to learn about our disposable socks made with our new machine. I'll go and explain it to him."

"Do you want to take me with you? I'd like to learn too." Zhao Zhuoran's thirst for knowledge was quite unexpected.
