Stepmother: 248. Clothing Exhibition
Mao Ni's heart is tired, and she has such a mother... If it weren't for such a mother, she would not have the chance to go to secondary school: "We have to go to the factory tomorrow morning, and we don't have time to wash."
"Then wash the day after tomorrow." The **** said, "It will be fine for a day or two later."
Mao Ni thought, "You're okay, I'm okay: "Third sister said earlier that when workers come over tomorrow, people will see oil on your head, and they will think that I am just as unclean as you are. People will say Me?"
"She dares!" said the bitch, "who said you, me, I—"
Song Zhaodi interrupted her: "No one else will come tomorrow, but the brother and sister-in-law of an officer next door. They can use sewing machines, and they can become regular workers when they come here."
"The officer's brother?" The **** stood up, "What kind of worker are you not a soldier. Isn't this a job with our family Mao Ni? Walk around, take a shower and wash your hair."
Mao Ni came here this time, not only brought all the quilts and clothes, but also the towels and the tea jar. Seeing that her mother finally let go, she quickly said: "You wait for me outside, I'll get the towel. "
"You still have a way." Zhong Jianguo whispered.
Song Zhaodi: "She expects Mao Ni to be the director to make money. People like her don't dare to seize her weakness and ask her to toss."
The next morning, Song Zhaodi and the others went to the second floor of the staff dormitory. Song Zhaodi walked to the far east, opened the door and called three people in: "There is a bed and a table inside, and the curtains have been fixed for Mao Ni. She can stay here tonight and cook downstairs."
"The kitchen is the row of tile-roofed houses against the south wall?" Song Laibao asked.
Song Zhaodi nodded.
The **** is very satisfied: "It's good. By the way, Zhao Di, I see that there are curtains in the two rooms on the west side. Who are they prepared for?"
"One belongs to Erwa and the other belongs to the factory manager." Song Zhaodi told Mao Ni last night that another factory manager would arrive in two days. "The bed and table are the same as Mao Ni's." Immediately, he said to Mao Ni, "You make the bed first, and I'll take you to buy anything else."
The son of a **** hurriedly asked: "Are you going to buy it?"
"You pay." Song Zhaodi said, "I'll buy it."
The **** pouted: "You are too stingy."
"Then reduce Mao Ni's salary to 30?" Song Zhaodi said, "What does she want, what can I buy for her."
The **** hurriedly shook her head: "That can't be done."
"Mom, I work here, the villagers won't talk about me anymore, and I can make a lot of money in the future to buy you TVs, refrigerators and fans." Mao Ni said, "You and Dad are bored at home, You can also come and stay for a few days. If I don't work here, I'll have nothing."
The son of a **** thought about it, her daughter was right: "Let's go buy a stove." After saying that, she went outside.
Mao Ni is helpless: "Mom, don't worry, wait for me to put things away."
"Throw the bed first." The voice of the **** came in from outside.
Song Zhaodi gave her the key: "Let's go. It's rare for your mother to be diligent once."
"Oh, I didn't ask her to come." Mao Ni said, "she said every day that this place is far away from Binhai, and she was worried. My father got a headache from her nagging, so he asked me to bring her here. I'm not worried, I just want to come out and play."
"Maurney, Maury—"
Mao Ni hurriedly ran out: "Come, come."
Song Laibao is helpless: "This woman is not sensible at all."
"I don't want her to work." Song Zhaodi whispered, "Mao Ni knows what kind of virtue her mother is, and even if she leaves Mao Ni to talk nonsense, Mao Ni will not listen to her."
Song Laibao: "That's true. You go out first, I'll lock the door."
Song Zhaodi went outside and shook her head helplessly when she saw the **** waving at her, telling her to hurry up.
Since this place is designated as a special economic zone, there are more people selling things on the street, and many things are cheaper than Binhai. A **** buys something cheap when she sees it.
Mao Ni told her that her salary will not be paid until the end of next month. Now that she has used up the money, she will have no money to use next month, so she can honestly calculate what she should buy and what she can't buy for the time being. Rao is like this, or buy a large package of things.
Jiang Xiaoqin did tell Song Zhaodi that her brother-in-law and sister-in-law could come here today. Song Zhaodi and the others didn't go back in the afternoon. The four of them made do with a meal, and Song Zhaodi took the three of them to the factory to disassemble the machine. Halfway through, Jiang Xiaoqin came.
Lu Liang's younger brother put down the bag when he entered the door, and helped Song Zhaodi pack up together. Afterwards, the seven went to the staff dormitory together. Except for Erwa, Cai Kun, and Mao Ni's room with curtains, the other rooms only have beds and small tables.
The **** was very satisfied when she saw that the table in the room was not as big as the table in Maoni's side, and it was not comparable to her daughter.
Song Zhaodi told Jiang Xiaoqin before that Jiang Xiaoqin brought two curtains this time. Lu Liang's younger brother and sister-in-law were used to farm work, and they tidied up the room in a while.
As soon as this place was cleaned up, Zhong Jianguo's soldiers arrived. Song Zhaodi took the four to the dormitory, and then took them to the workshop. Then he gave all the remaining keys to one of them, and told him that there were still people coming in these two days, and Song Zhaodi went back.
Lu Liang's younger brother and sister-in-law and Mao Ni did not go back. They want to get acquainted with the environment, see what is still missing, and buy it tomorrow.
Mao Ni used to study at Binhai, lived alone, and experienced marriage. She was not a little girl who had just left the society. Four veterans lived in the male staff dormitory next to them. There were so many people in , Song Zhaodi is also relieved.
Back on the island, Zhenxing and Liu Jingjing have already cooked and are waiting for them to come back.
After dinner, Song Laibao and Damn Niang went upstairs to watch TV. Song Zhaodi called Liu Jingjing in front of her: "Has your eldest sister resigned?"
"My eldest sister wants to resign, but her mother-in-law doesn't allow it." Liu Jingjing was very embarrassed, "Her mother-in-law said that private factories are not as reliable as state-owned units. Her mother explained to my eldest sister's mother-in-law that Erwa is not someone else, but Zhenxing's younger brother. , her mother-in-law also disagrees. Today you go to Yongcheng, I call my mother, and my mother doesn't know what to do."
Song Zhaodi: "Is your eldest brother-in-law their only child?"
"No, he also has a younger brother and an older brother." Liu Jingjing said.
Song Zhaodi wondered: "Then why didn't she agree?"
"I don't understand either." Liu Jingjing said, "eldest sister also said before that her mother-in-law thinks their family eats too much. It stands to reason that my eldest sister came to work here, and the child was sent to my mother's house, and there were four fewer people. You should be happy when you eat."
Song Zhaodi instantly understood: "Does your eldest sister give her mother-in-law a lot of money every month?"
"You, you mean her mother-in-law——" Liu Jingjing moved her heart and opened her mouth, "I'll call my eldest sister tomorrow."
Song Zhaodi: "Speak well. After all, she is the eldest brother-in-law's mother, and your brother-in-law is in a bad mood." Turning to the kitchen, "Zhenxing, I'll do the dishes later, I'm looking for you."
"Teacher, I can hear you," said Zhen Xing.
Song Zhaodi: "Go to Yongcheng tomorrow afternoon to find six more workers, and those who can cut clothes will be given priority."
"Six people?" Zhong Jianguo calculated, "There are only ten people in total, how many clothes can you make?"
Song Zhaodi: "There is also a strong sister, who specializes in sewing buttons. There are two children who are young and easy to teach. When they get started, they will find them on the island next month. There will be about ten in our family area. One. Erwa does not need military family members or fishermen on the island to set up a factory, and the commander will have to talk to you when he comes back.”
"No wonder you're not in a hurry." Zhong Jianguo said, "I thought you asked Big Sister or Aunt Liu to help you find someone."
Song Zhaodi: "No. Jingjing, call tomorrow. If you are afraid of arguing with your mother, ask Zhenxing to help you."
"Okay." Liu Jingjing said, "Teacher, please go up and take a rest. Zhenxing and I will pack up and lock the door for you."
Song Zhaodi stood up: "I have to wash my face. After running for such a day, my legs and feet are sore and sore."
"I told you to learn to ride, but you didn't." Zhong Jianguo said, "If you learn, do you still need to walk?"
Song Zhaodi: "I don't want to learn. I will ask Erwa to buy me a car tomorrow."
"You're a money printing machine." Zhong Jianguo got up and went to the kitchen to bring hot water and put it in front of Song Zhaodi, "scalding your feet."
Seeing this, Liu Jingjing ran to the kitchen, cleaned up and dragged Zhenxing to the school family home.
The next morning, Song Laibao packed up his clothes and asked the **** to go back with her. The **** was not happy and wanted to play for another two days. Song Laibao frightened her and made Zhao Di angry. She found someone else to be the workshop director, and Mao Nicole had no money to buy her a refrigerator, TV, electric fan.
As soon as these words came out, the **** hurriedly packed her things and went to Yongcheng with Song Laibao, fearing that Song Zhaodi would change her mind. After eating at Mao Ni's place, the two went to Hangzhou by car in the afternoon, and then took the train back from Hangzhou.
Speaking of which, Zhenhai County is not big, and it is really not easy to find six people who can cut clothes. There are not only state-run garment factories, but also private garment factories here. There is no shortage of jobs for people who can make clothes.
Zhengxing later showed that Erwa was a top student at Imperial University, and said that there were no restrictions on men and women, the salary was 30, and there was a bonus at the end of the year. Only six people were found, two men and four women.
On the 22nd of the first lunar month, in the morning, Erwa and Cai Kun came back. Rest at home overnight and go to the factory the next morning. On the morning of the 24th, the artillery was fired.
Erwa asked someone to make a long wooden board, wrote the four characters "Spring and Autumn Clothing", and nailed it to the wall next to the gate. The next afternoon, Liu Jingjing's sister and brother-in-law also arrived.
Erwa worries about teaching the workers and being poached by others. Therefore, a dozen people, including Liu Jingjing's sister and brother-in-law, were divided into three workshops. In the future, when there are more people, appointing them as group leaders is actually separate teaching.
There are six factories in total. If Erwa doesn't plan to recruit more people, it will definitely not build so many. At this time, the people were still very simple, and they didn't separate the husband and wife, and they didn't find any problems with the two babies being so divided.
Everyone saw that Erwa's clothes were much different from those on the market. It seemed that Erwa's clothes were better than the ones on the market. Following such a talented and practical boss, everyone felt at ease.
On the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month, the Spring and Autumn Clothing Factory is on the right track. Zhenxing gave all the money in his hand to Erwa and kept Erwa to buy cloth.
Erwa has prepared 30 kinds of clothes this time, including spring and autumn clothes, all of which are popular styles. By the 26th of April in the solar calendar, 600 sets have been made, and all the money for revitalization has been used up.
Zili and Dawa knew that Erwa needed money to set up a factory, so they sent their wages to Erwa, and Gengsheng also gave his money to Erwa. Erwa handed over the workers' wages to Song Zhaodi and asked Song Zhaodi to help him pay the wages.
On the afternoon of the 26th, Erwa told everyone that Saturday and Sunday would be off for two days, and the wages would be paid on the afternoon of the 30th, so she and Cai Kun took 300 sets of clothes to the imperial capital by plane.
Elder Qi knew from a long time ago that Erwa's clothes look good, and he was very supportive when he learned that he set up a clothing factory. As soon as Erwa got on the plane, Qi Lao sent his attendant to drive to the airport.
It is not easy to enter the Zitengyuan with a car of clothes, so the attendant simply parked the car in the community where Qi Mingwei is located. Qi Mingwei saw that Qi Lao even sent out his own orderlies to support Erwa with actions. Although he felt that Qi Lao was partial and had never been so supportive to his son, on the morning of the 28th, Erwa held a clothing exhibition, and Qi Mingwei and his daughter-in-law still called friends to support him.
At the clothing exhibition, Qi Mingwei saw Lian Hui's three brothers and sisters, Lian Lie's ex-mother-in-law and brother-in-law were there. Otherwise, Qi Lao knew that the Lian family were all gone, but if he didn't go, he would have to let him go.
The venue was set up by Lian Hui. Lian Hui wanted to make a big effort to sell the magazine "Travel Spring and Autumn" she founded to thousands of households. The floor on which the model walks is covered with white cloth, and the chairs that the audience sits on are borrowed by her from the relevant unit, all of which are exactly the same.
On the 28th, when it was dawn, the layout began. The sun rose and the layout was completed. When passers-by saw the large characters of "Spring and Autumn Clothing and Spring and Autumn Clothing Exhibition", they couldn't help but stop and ask someone about the origin of Spring and Autumn Clothing.
Pedestrians didn't find out, but they attracted reporters from other newspapers. When Lian Hui proposed to start a bimonthly magazine, many people opposed it. The leaders knew Lian Hui's background and did not dare to offend her. During the meeting, they told everyone to try it first.
On the 28th, it happened to be a Sunday. The reporters of the travel newspaper were very unhappy when they were called over to work overtime. However, when they found that they were sitting and waiting for the models to enter the venue, other newspapers could only watch with the onlookers. Point unwilling to disappear instantly.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the sun is high, the person is drowsy, and the model comes out.
As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and Buddhas rely on gold. The models were picked by Lian Hui from the art troupe. The men were beautiful and beautiful, and they put on well-fitting clothes and leather shoes. There were eight models, three men and five women.
Cai Kun took the microphone to the stage, told everyone that it was gone, and then bowed with the model, thank you for your support. Finally, let me tell you that they brought 300 sets of clothes this time, which are exactly the same as those worn by the models. There are sizes, but each set only has ten pieces. If you like it, you can buy it next to you.
Lian Hui's friend, Qi Mingwei's friend, Liu Ping's colleague, these people are all good at money. They saw a satin dress costing dozens of yuan, and it was too cold to wear it, so they didn't hesitate to buy it.
Rich people buy expensive clothes, while onlookers buy cotton and linen clothes. The crowd dissipated and the clothes were sold out. Liu Ping called out, "Why don't you leave me two pieces?"
"I'll keep it for you." Erwa didn't expect that three hundred pieces of clothes would be sold out in a while, so she handed the wallet to Cai Kun, "There are still three hundred pieces in my factory, tomorrow, Lianhui's unit will make magazines. Come out, just tick the one you like, Cai Kun will go back and bring the clothes, and I will send them to you."
Liu Ping hurriedly asked: "Anything else?"
"There are many more." Erwa said, "Thank you for bringing your colleagues over today." Liu Ping brought her colleagues over, which was beyond Erwa's expectations, "Among the people who bought clothes today, there are several self-employed businesses. Household, I told them that if you want to wholesale, you have to go to my factory, and they plan to visit me. You can also buy clothes here in the future.”
Lian Hui was surprised: "Self-employed? They know where your factory is?"
"We have business cards." Cai Kun took out a stack of cards from his pocket, "Miss Lian, do you want it?"
Lian Hui smiled: "Just call my name."
After the clothing exhibition, the Lian family and Qi Mingwei and his wife left. Now there are only Erwa, Cai Kun, Qi Lao's attendant, Lian Hui, Liu Ping and Lian Hui's friends and models.
"Erwa, let's agree, one person will give fifty yuan, and you can give the money to those people." Lian Hui reminded him.
Erwa: "Where are they?"
"Change clothes under the tent over there." Lian Hui pointed to the tent not far away.
Erwa: "You guys wait for me here for a while." Seeing people, he gave them money and gave them the clothes they wore.
Eight models did not expect Erwa to be so generous, so they all left their contact information when they left, asking Erwa to contact them directly next time.
The second baby smiled and came out with the contact information. Lian Hui's friend also left, and Liu Ping was still there. Erwa was a little surprised: "Aunt Liu Ping, why haven't you gone back yet?"
"I'll go back with you." Liu Ping glanced at the wallet in Cai Kun's hand, bulging, "Er Wa made a lot of money today, right?"
Erwa: "I've made my money back."
"Capital?" Liu Ping was surprised, "So much money is enough?"
Erwa: "My factory has to pay nearly 2,000 yuan in wages this month. After removing the fabric, Cai Kun and I have to travel back and forth, as well as the money for the model. How much do you have left?"
"It's really not that much." Liu Ping said, "If Lian Hui didn't help you with the venue, you might have to pay for it."
Er Wa nodded: "Yes. Lian Hui, thank you. I won't say anything else, just give me your family's size tomorrow, four sets of clothes for each person."
"Do you have mine?" Liu Ping hurriedly asked.
Lian Hui is quite speechless: "Are you our Lian family?"
Liu Ping choked. She asked this because she asked Erwa to make clothes before, and Erwa ignored her: "Then what you promised me just now, will you give it back to me?"
Er Wa smiled and said, "Of course I'll give it to you. The four sets of clothes are thanks to Lian Hui for your help, and the one for you is thank you for bringing your colleagues to join us. It's different. By the way, Lian Hui, tomorrow when your unit publishes newspapers and magazines. , remember not to show the model's feet."
"Why?" Liu Ping was curious.
Erwa: "I bought the shoes the model was wearing today from a local shoe factory in Yongcheng. They saw my clothes were in the newspapers and they were selling well, and they would also look for Lian Hui and his unit—"
"Host a shoe exhibition?" Liu Ping answered.
Erwa wanted to roll her eyes: "I will sponsor Lianhui's unit for a sum of money, and ask Lianhui's unit to put their shoes on it."
"Then, can Lian Hui also get the money?" Liu Ping asked.
Lian Hui: "I am the founder, and the unit really receives the sponsorship fee and will give me a bonus."
"That's fine." Liu Ping looked at Erwa, "I didn't expect you to be the most skilled person in your family." Noticing Lian Hui's pouting, an idea flashed in her mind, "Lian Hui , when will your friend pull up the chair?"
Lian Hui: "It will take a while. If you want to go back, take the car at Grandpa Qi's house and go back first."
"Then I'll go back." Liu Ping glanced at Erwa, then at Lian Hui, and urged Old Qi's attendant to drive.
