Abigail’s Second Life

Chapter 400 Change of Strategy Before, Abigail had suggested using overseas suppliers. However, overseas import seemed impractical, especially for an item this small. Those companies probably wouldn't even take them seriously if they were to request it, thinking that it was a prank call.

"Let's try contacting foreign processing factories," Abigail said to Luna.

They were at their wit's end; they had to try every possible avenue to cup with a workable. solution.

"I'll give it a shot." If only they could change the material... Alas, the hangtag was also a brand's logo. Many consumers had a preconceived notion about the brand, and buying with that trust felt secure. Changing it would make them uneasy.

"There's a clothing exhibition in Sicuaro next week. Let's attend it together," Luna said after contacting the foreign clients.

"To find suppliers?" Abigail inquired.

"Yes. I didn't plan on going, but that was before all this. We didn't lack subcontractors prior to this. Now, this is looking like our one last resort," Luna said, a touch of resignation in her voice.

As soon as the call ended, an assistant rushed in from outside, saying, "The fabric scheduled for today is deemed substandard and has been detained by foreign customs!" The workers were all waiting to start making clothes with this batch of fabric. Now, something like this happened? "Did they say what the problem is?" Abigail asked the assistant.

"They didn't say anything. They just wouldn't let it through. I doubt we'll ever get this batch back," the assistant reported.

Luna knew she was likely right. Once foreign customs confiscated something, it was incredibly difficult to resolve, even with a hefty fine. If people were obstructing their business behind the scenes, this batch was almost as good as lost.

Originally, this fabric was supposed to arrive today, and the workers would have a month's worth of work. Now... Abigail didn't want to give up like this. So, she called Ronaldo.

Soon, Ronaldo answered her call.

1/3 "I need your help with something. Foreign customs have detained our goods. Do you have any way to retrieve them? This is urgent!" Abigail asked Ronaldo.

"Clearly, even if I had the authority, I can't do it..." Ronaldo also felt helpless.

After a brief acknowledgment, Abigail hung up the phone.

This was something Ronaldo couldn't handle. Even if he had the power, it would be too easy to find leverage against him and implicate his family.

Luna also felt dejected after seeing Abigail falling into grave silence.

Abigail dazedly held her phone for a moment before asking Luna, "Do you know how to negotiate with the other party?" "I do. Do you want to give it a try?" Luna asked gently.

"We have to try, no matter what. We're running out of time," Abigail said urgently.

If they didn't inform the workers today that they had fabric, they would start resigning one after another. This chain reaction would lead to the company's collapse. Luna quickly gave Abigail a quick run down.

Despite their efforts, the other party refused to release the goods and insisted on a penalty.

Abigail's frown deepened after she ended the call. "This won't work." "Dang it!" Luna cursed in frustration.

After a moment of contemplation, Abigail said, "I'll give you a design, take it to the sample room, and have them make a sample foras soon as possible." She picked up her tablet, printed out a design, and handed it to Luna.

"Do we use the standard children's size chart?" Luna asked.

"Yes. You're smart." Abigail beamed.

After Luna left, Abigail called out to her assistant outside, "Notify the workers to cin for the afternoon shift." "Alright!" The assistant, not understanding how Abigail planned to solve this, went off excitedly to make the calls.

Abigail took out the inventory of fabric and selected several rolls of fabric that had been stored for many years. She had the warehouse start shipping them.

2/3 After she completed these tasks, Abigail opened TikTok and messaged a teacher from a rural village.

'Hello, I've been following you for a long time. I'm a designer fromL.Moon Studio. Winter is coming, and NO I'd like to send the children a batch of winter clothes. If you're interested, you can contact me.' She was about to exit thewhen the teacher responded. Sear*ch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

'Miss Alana, I really like the clothes you design. I'm so happy that you're willing to help the children. What do you needto do?" I hope you can visit a few villages and tally up the number of children. It would be best if we can reach a quantity of 2000' For such impoverished villages, having over a hundred students in one school was already impressive. Achieving over two thousand was extremely challenging.

'2000? That many? I'll let the village secretary know right away. Thank you, Miss Alana!" After the arrangements were made, Abigail couldn't help but exhale a sigh of relief.

This plan was originally intended for next year, but now, she had no choice but to implement it early.

She had started following this teacher because she found the rural teaching videos interesting Them langer she watched those videos, the more she felt that now that she had the means, she should make sfree clothes for the children. Now, her wish was granted ahead of time.

After all, the workers on the assembly line couldn't afford to be idle. These were the workers trained by L.Moon, and Abigail didn't want a single one of them to quit.

When the children's clothing production started, the teacher Abigail was following sent over the student count.

'Miss Alana, there are a total of 2243 students, of which 800 are children who can't afford to go to sch6d1.1 hope you can make over 200 more pieces because they also desperately need winter clothes. 'Don't worry. I'll make as many as needed. Hence, the company's situation temporarily stabilized now that the workers had something to focus on.
