A Promising Youth novel Chapter 12

I really didn't expect Director Lau to be so knowledgeable that he recognized the color right away.

But I didn't know how to answer him. Before leaving prison, Master told me never to reveal my relationship with these people in prison.

After all, most of my teachers were special prisoner inmates. No one knew whom they had offended before. If others knew that I was a disciple of these people, there was a possibility that they might bring me trouble or even revenge.

Seeing that I was silent, Director Lau asked again.

“Young man, what is your relationship with the Stone Family? Do you have the technique of dyeing cloth of ‘Mermaid'?”

“No, I don't know the Stone Family, much less ‘mermaids’.”

Taking a deep breath, I tried my best to hide it.

“Director Lau, since no one can dye this cloth, the Blue Butterfly's design is a deceptive decoration. Please make the decision at once. Everyone is still busy!”

Carrie hugged her arms, urging.

But Director Lau shook his head, took a deep breath and said.

“This cloth is called ‘General Grey’. There was a brand that really dyed it. I had the pleasure of seeing it once when I was a boy, and it was beautiful! No, we can't use ‘beautiful’ to describe it. If we can wear this kind of fabric in this summit, it can definitely give investors a shock, and may even take back the name ‘Textile City’!”

Hearing this, the pretty girl immediately looked at me with bright eyes, while Carrie, who was on the opposite side, mocked with a crooked nose.

“What is ‘General Grey’, ‘Mermaid’? Why haven't I heard of it?”

“You youngsters of course have never heard of it, because this brand disappeared decades ago.”

When he finished, he let out a long sigh and looked at me again with great regret.

“You really don’t know the Stone Family?”

“No.”

I shook my head decisively.

“Well then, time is running out, and I'll have to give the bidding to JL Company.”

I immediately interrupted him.

“Why?”

Is our Blue Butterfly's design inferior to JL Company?”

Director Lau shook his head and laughed lightly.

“This foreign man is right. If you can't dye this kind of cloth, no matter how good you design is, it's just for show.”

“Who says we can't dye this kind of cloth? Director Lau, although I don't know anything about 'General Grey', I can definitely get the color of this fabric!”

Lifting my head, I looked at him with immense confidence.

“How old are you, young man? 23? Don't brag so much It's not like no one has ever tried it in all the textile mills in R City, and those experienced workers who have been immersed in the dyeing and weaving industry for years had never able to make it.”

I turned my head to look at the pretty girl. Her excited eyes instantly dimmed so much. Looking at her despondent look, for some reason, I felt pain in heart. ‘Girl, you saved my life, how could I let you down?’

Tilting my head back, I said firmly.

“Director Lau, we have no proof. I hope you can give me half an hour. I'll take this ‘General Grey’ of fabric to you!”

“So, you can dye? Can I have a look?”

Having said that, he felt wrong and said, “Don't get me wrong. There is confidential technology involved and I would never peek at it.”

“Ok.”

I nodded. I could see that Director Lau had some relations with Clara, and he was not bad. Most importantly, let ting them on the site increased the persuasive power, lest Carrie slandered us that the cloth was from elsewhere.

Afterwards, Clara took me as well as several leaders to the dyeing and weaving workshop. Other representatives of enterprises involved in the bid naturally did not follow, after all, they were all in the same industry. Dyeing and weaving technology was the lifeblood of the enterprise, so they were not allowed to visit. Beside if they saw it on the site, they could not get it.

The dyeing and weaving workshop, because the factory could not pay wages, had long been stopped running. Clara called several works to bring dye and open the dye tank.

Honestly, it was hard for a factory owner to beg employees to work.

It was good that everything was ready. Before the dyeing, Clara came up to me, looked at me and asked.
