Chapter 161 Solving the Dilemma of Dyeing and Printing Raw Materials
Solution to the Dilemma of Printing and Dyeing Raw Materials
Su Yunlan frowned. The joy she had felt from the new dyeing equipment was now overshadowed by the stumbling block that was supplier Wu.
She took a deep breath to suppress her agitation.
It seems that solving the raw material problem is the most urgent task if we want to truly establish a dyeing and printing workshop.
"Yuhan, I plan to go again. I must finalize the raw material issue no matter what," Su Yunlan said to Xiao Yuhan, turning her head with a firm tone.
Looking at the flames burning in her eyes, Xiao Yuhan knew that she had made up her mind.
He nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "I'll have Old Twenty accompany you, so you can look out for each other."
Su Yunlan knew that Xiao Yuhan was worried about her safety, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
She gave him a grateful look and said softly, "Okay."
The next day, Su Yunlan led Young Master Xiao on a journey to Wu Yuansheng.
The morning sunlight shone on her, but it couldn't dispel the worry in her heart.
The scenery along the roadside was still beautiful, but in Su Yunlan's eyes at this moment, it seemed to carry a hint of severity.
Upon arriving at Wu Yuanshang's mansion again, the opulent atmosphere immediately filled Su Yunlan with disgust.
The gatekeepers remained as arrogant as ever, as if they were there to beg rather than to discuss business.
"Oh, isn't this Madam Su? What, not satisfied with the price last time? You've come to offer more money?" Wu, the raw material merchant, said in a mocking tone from inside the hall.
Su Yunlan took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and stepped inside.
They saw Wu, the raw material supplier, sitting comfortably in a grand chair covered with tiger skin, holding a cup of tea in his hand, squinting at them with greed written all over his face.
"Mr. Wu, we have come with sincerity, and we hope you can show the same sincerity in return." Su Yunlan tried to keep her tone calm.
Upon hearing this, Wu, the raw material supplier, put down his teacup and smiled contemptuously: "Sincerity? My sincerity is to raise the price of this batch of raw materials by another 30%!"
"You!" Young Master Xiao, in his youthful arrogance, was furious upon hearing Wu, the raw material supplier, make such an outrageous demand, and was about to step forward to argue.
Su Yunlan grabbed him and gestured for him to calm down.
She raised her head and looked directly at Wu, the raw material supplier.
"Mr. Wu, are you sure you want to do this?" Su Yunlan's voice was soft, but it carried a chilling aura.
Wu, the raw material supplier, felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze, but he quickly regained his composure and sneered, "Of course I'm sure! This batch of raw materials is mine alone. If you want it, you'll have to pay the price!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yunlan's lips suddenly curled into a meaningful smile. She slowly took out a document from her sleeve and handed it over.
"Mr. Wu, take a look at this..."
Su Yunlan's actions froze the atmosphere in the entire hall.
Wu, the raw material supplier, froze instantly, replaced by a hint of doubt and unease.
He took the document from Su Yunlan with suspicion and squinted to read it carefully.
What he saw was a raw material supply contract stamped with a bright red seal. The supplier's name was completely unfamiliar to Wu, the raw material supplier, but the terms on it made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
Not only were the raw materials priced far below his monopoly price, but their quality was also superior to the goods he possessed.
"This...this is impossible!" Wu, the raw material merchant, exclaimed in shock. His teacup trembled, spilling water and soaking his expensive silk robe.
He suddenly raised his head, staring wide-eyed at Su Yunlan as if trying to see right through her, "Where did you get this?!"
Su Yunlan looked at his dejected appearance and a smug smile appeared on her lips.
Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on her face, casting a golden halo around her and further highlighting her confidence and composure.
“Mr. Wu, the business world is like a battlefield. The old trick of using monopolies to raise prices is outdated.” Su Yunlan spoke softly, her voice clear and melodious, yet every word was piercing. “Do you think you’re the only one who can provide these raw materials? You’re overestimating yourself.”
Wu, the raw material supplier, was pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He knew that he was really in trouble this time.
He originally intended to extort a large sum of money, but unexpectedly, the other party cut off his source of income.
"You...you..." Wu, the raw material supplier, stammered for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence. He could only watch helplessly as Su Yunlan took back the contract and turned to leave.
"Twentieth Brother, arrange for people to receive the new raw materials immediately!" Su Yunlan walked out of Wu's raw material merchant's residence and immediately gave the order, his tone full of joy and excitement.
"Alright!" Young Master Xiao responded excitedly, and he immediately began to arrange manpower, as he had been unable to contain himself for a long time.
Inside the dyeing workshop, the workers cheered when they learned that the raw material crisis had been resolved.
They could almost see the dyeing workshops reopening, and all sorts of brightly colored fabrics being born from their hands.
Su Yunlan stood at the entrance of the dyeing workshop, watching the busy crowd, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.
She knew that the future of the dyeing workshop would be even more glorious.
She felt a warm, large hand holding her tightly.
Su Yunlan turned her head and saw Xiao Yuhan looking at her with admiration in his deep eyes.
Xiao Yuhan held Su Yunlan's hand tightly, his fingertips gently caressing her delicate skin, the warm touch conveying silent admiration.
"Lan'er, you are truly my lucky star." His deep voice carried a hint of amusement, and his eyes reflected Su Yunlan's confident smile, as dazzling as starlight.
Su Yunlan looked at him, her eyes sparkling, and a sweet smile appeared on her lips.
"This is all thanks to my husband's support," she replied softly, her fingertips grasping his large hand, feeling the warmth of his palm.
The two smiled at each other, and without a word, they could feel the tacit understanding and love between them.
The air around them seemed to be filled with a sweet fragrance. The workers in the dyeing workshop looked at them and couldn't help but smile with envy. They had never seen such a loving and harmonious couple.
With a sufficient supply of raw materials, the workers in the printing and dyeing workshops were overjoyed, like parched land receiving timely rain, and immediately threw themselves into the intense and orderly production.
Inside the dye vat, dyes of various colors tumbled and emitted a faint, pleasant fragrance, quite different from the pungent smell emanating from the inferior raw materials supplied by Wu's supplier.
The workers skillfully operated the new printing and dyeing equipment, and bolts of brightly colored and soft fabric slowly emerged from the machines, spreading out like flowing water.
Sunlight streamed through the window lattice, scattering across the fabric and refracting into a kaleidoscope of colors, illuminating the entire dyeing workshop and the hopeful faces of the workers.
Looking at these new dyeing and printing products, Su Yunlan felt a great sense of accomplishment.
The quality and color of these fabrics far surpassed those of the inferior dyeing and printing workshops supplied by Wu's raw material supplier. Many passersby couldn't help but stop and watch, attracted by the brightly colored fabrics, and inquired about the price and how to purchase them.
Looking at these potential customers, Su Yunlan smiled confidently.
However, Su Yunlan was not blinded by the success she had just achieved.
She knew that relying solely on these passing customers was not enough to open up the market for the new printing and dyeing products.
She needs more effective promotional methods to let more people know about and accept these new products.
Su Yunlan gazed into the distance, secretly pondering her next plan.
"Twentieth Brother, prepare the car." Su Yunlan's tone was firm, his eyes gleaming.
