“Good morning, Miss Soraya!”

As Soraya stepped into the bicycle factory, Jilly came up and said, “You’re so early.”

This made Soraya feel a bit embarrassed because she had stayed up late last night playing Fight the Landlord with Mystery Moon and Lily which made her wake up half an hour later than usual. When Wendy was not around, everyone became slightly lazy, of course… except for Anna and Agatha. Whether it was work or learning, they had always set a great example for the other sisters, especially Agatha. She always arrived early and stayed late.

Soraya asked Jilly, “Is the material ready?”

“Yes, please follow me,” Jilly replied

As a student in the first graduating class, Jilly became Soraya’s assistant after graduation. Her main job was to inform Soraya of her daily schedule. A year ago, Soraya would have never believed that ordinary people and witches could work together in harmony.

“Are those the finished bicycles?” Soraya asked since she suddenly noticed that the factory was a bit different today. The steam machine was not in operation and everyone stood around and stared at a row of brand-new vehicles.

“Yes, these are the first batch of products,” Jilly said with a smile. “20 bicycles in total. It’s not easy to make, especially the chains and wheels. The rate of the finished products was less than 50%.” She finished.

“It’s not easy indeed,” Soraya thought. The factory was built last autumn, but since then, it had experienced all kinds of difficulties, such as the equipment not being ready, a serious shortage of human resources and so on… It was clearly less prioritized when compared to the steam assembly plant and chemical plant next door. Both of the neighboring plants operated in three shifts and people were working at all times. However, the bicycle factory only operated during the daytime. Once, even Jilly complained that her friend, who had worked for the chemical plant, had a salary three times more than hers, but she had never seen a single bicycle made.

Now Jilly finally obtained a bicycle of her own.

As Soraya walked into her office, she saw that the ground had already been paved with a layer of white paper that was about 40 square meters. The white paper made the floor look as if there was snow on the ground.

“Sorry to disturb you, the part we need to process today is the inner tire,” Jilly explained to Soraya and then bowed.

“Okay,” the witch nodded and said, “You may go on with your work.”

“Well, please call me if you need any help.” She laughed. “I’m just around the door.”

Seeing Jilly leave excitedly, Soraya knew that she could not wait to ride the bicycle.

Soraya smiled and shook her head as she took off her shoes and stepped on the tiled paper floor.
