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 come up 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

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.

“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.

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 for me as 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 come in 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.

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 from L.Moon Studio. Winter is coming, and I’d like to
send the children a batch of winter clothes. If you’re interested, you can
