Li Linlin watched Su Xiaotian look at her, feeling nervous herself, her fair hands clasped tightly together.
"Xiaotian, is there something wrong?" Li Mumu asked before his sister could speak.
Su Xiaotian smiled and said, "There is a little. She needs good care. Brother Mumu, you've taken good care of Sister Linlin over the years."
It was thanks to his dedicated care that Linlin's body hadn't continued to weaken with even the slightest issue.
"However, the environment here is too hot and not suitable for Sister Linlin to recuperate. If possible, I still hope Sister Linlin can go to the capital," Su Xiaotian said this without any ulterior motives.
She simply felt that Linlin's body was more suited to the crisp, clear autumn weather of the north.
"Xiaotian, will my illness get better if I go to the capital?" Li Linlin looked at Su Xiaotian with hopeful eyes.
She had never imagined that her long-standing illness could be due to the environment and climate.
However, the capital was a completely unfamiliar place to her. Whether she could adapt if she went there was still a question.
"After the summer vacation, autumn will be here soon. The autumn in the capital is crisp and clear, very suitable for you to recuperate," Su Xiaotian said with a sweet smile.
"Moreover, our family has many children. Not only me and my brothers, but also Sister Xiaomei, Brother Xiaogang, and Brother Yiyuan."
"With so many of us accompanying you, your mood will be better, which will be beneficial for your treatment."
Li Linlin probably had no friends here. From their earlier conversation, she could tell that Li Linlin was a very lonely child.
Being alone for a long time also had negative effects on one's health.
When Mumu heard Su Xiaotian say this, he hesitated. It was one thing not to want his sister to leave, but if his sister could get better by going to the capital, he was willing to let her go.
In fact, Mumu felt that it would be fine even if he accompanied her.
"Linlin, since going to the capital is good for your health, let's go to the capital!"
Li Mumu's words surprised everyone present. "We?"
Did he mean they would all go together?
"Brother, you're going with me?" Li Linlin asked in shock.
Her brother's entire foundation was here. How could he even consider going to the capital? It must be for her sake.
"Of course I'm going with you. I can only be at ease when I see you settled,"
Li Mumu always spoke very gently to his sister!
"Mumu, you're such a good brother!" Su Ciliang praised with a smile.
"I'll write you a prescription first, Sister Linlin. You can take it for a few days. When we get to the capital, I'll make them into pills for you, which will be more convenient to take."
The conditions weren't right here, so Su Xiaotian couldn't make pills for Li Linlin. For now, she could only drink the medicine.
Li Linlin nodded repeatedly.
As long as she saw hope, she never feared taking medicine.
Only after watching Su Xiaotian and the others walk away did Li Mumu remember that he had initially planned not to let Linlin take the medicine prescribed by Su Xiaotian.
How did he end up not only agreeing but also promising Su Xiaotian that Linlin would live in the capital for a while?
"Brother, I think Xiaotian is a reliable person!" Li Linlin said with a smile, looking at the receding figures.
Su Xiaotian quietly said to Su Shouwen, "Big Brother, you should thank me!"
Su Shouwen panicked for a moment. Had he revealed himself so obviously? He shouldn't have, right?
Su Xiaotian looked at Su Shouwen meaningfully.
Su Shouwen became even more flustered.
Su Xiaotian giggled and walked ahead, leaving Su Shouwen stunned on the spot.
In the following days, the group of young people began their treasure hunting in Rongcheng.
They followed the same approach as before, choosing to observe first.
After wandering around for two consecutive days, they felt that Rongcheng had changed a lot in half a year.
The goods that had been selling quickly before now seemed to be experiencing slow sales.
On the other hand, clothes were selling better.
After all, after wearing black, white, and gray for so many years, the Chinese finally had a concept of aesthetics, and wearing new clothes had become a dream for many.
Rongfa Trading Company also had a clothing section, but the styles were limited.
It was too far to source goods from Rongcheng, so they could only select styles they found acceptable from nearby places like the capital and Tianjin.
Su Xiaotian was also extremely picky, and ordinary styles didn't appeal to her.
But it had to be said that the clothes Su Xiaotian chose were indeed easier to sell.
The clothes that Su Si thought were good-looking but Su Xiaotian didn't, sold poorly.
This time, Su Xiaotian's visit also included an inspection of the Rongcheng clothing market.
Rongcheng's development was currently the fastest.
Even the capital couldn't compare.
The reason for the rapid development here was the difference in concepts.
Being closer to Hong Kong and having more contact with Hong Kong merchants, the concepts and aesthetics here were superior to those in the capital.
In the clothing industry, it was many years ahead of other places.
To expand the clothing business, Rongcheng and Modu would definitely be more suitable.
Su Xiaotian shared her thoughts.
The others were somewhat silent.
Although clothing was also good, there was a big difference between carrying electronics and carrying clothes.
Wholesaling clothes was not cost-effective in small quantities, and they couldn't handle large quantities.
"Then let's go take a look. At this time, we can buy a small amount of summer clothes and focus more on autumn clothes."
Chi Yiyuan stood beside Su Xiaotian and greatly approved of her opinion.
He had also noticed in the capital that the electronics business was not as easy as before.
Instead, due to the market opening up, many people started paying attention to dressing up, and the market for clothing was better. He also had some.
"But if there are too many clothes, what if we can't bring them back?" Su Shouwen worried.
"Summer and autumn clothes are not made of very thick material. If each of us carries a bag, it should be enough."
Before Su Shouwen could say anything else, Chi Yiyuan added, "We're not going to purchase only clothes. We can also buy some accessories, such as hats, necklaces, and brooches."
They had brought a lot of money with them this time, but it was impossible to say that they could bring back a large quantity of goods.
Su Shouwen, seeing Chi Yiyuan's persistence and his younger sister's eager eyes, could only agree.
"Alright!"
Mumu, hearing that they also planned to focus on the clothing business, was very supportive.
"I've recently contacted sales personnel from some factories. Let's finalize the styles we need, and then we'll take a batch of goods and head to the Northwest as previously discussed."
Mumu had blind trust in the Su siblings.
Su Xiaotian nodded.
Doing business for a long time had its advantages, but making quick money also had its benefits.
In recent years, many people had made money as speculators. They had to go to school and didn't have much time, but they could earn a few bucks during their holidays.
