Chen Xingling, who had just rushed to buy supplies at the supermarket before the city lockdown, transmigrated into a novel, and became the tragic female lead of a heartbreaking abuse story! The ori...
Forehead?
Big crab? ?
Chen Xingling asked curiously: "Where else is there?"
The old father chuckled and lowered his voice: "It's quite far away. It takes more than an hour for the boat to get there. The number is not as many as that on the island, but it's not small either."
Chen Xingling thought about it calmly and analyzed: "There are no major festivals now, so I'm afraid it won't sell well even if we try to sell at a high price. Let's wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival. The crabs will be fatter and juicier at that time. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a major traditional festival, so customers will be more willing to pay for crabs."
Business must be profitable to be done. You can't have a whole family busy for a day or two but not make a single penny.
It requires both vehicles and people, and it has to travel long distances, so the labor cost and transportation cost are high. Therefore, a large truck of crabs must be sold at a high price in order to have a sufficiently attractive profit margin.
Ordinary people rush around for three meals a day, and basically they pursue food and clothing, living frugally.
Only during festivals would every household be willing to spend more money to buy meat and delicious food.
Even for people in the provincial capital, most are in the same situation.
"Mid-Autumn Festival is the most important and lively traditional festival in the year besides Chinese New Year." Chen Xingling analyzed: "It is also the season when sea crabs begin to become fat, and crabs will sell better at that time."
Chen Sanshui nodded continuously: "Okay, whatever you say, I'll do it. I'll listen to you."
My daughter is now a college student. She is well-educated and capable of making money. Her analysis makes sense, so it is right to listen to her.
If I could earn an extra 100 or 200 yuan like I did when I was young, that would be great!
Liu Peiyun served roast chicken to her grandchildren and asked, "Lingling, are your brothers still in the factory?"
"Yes." Chen Xingling explained: "Big brother and second brother are helping to clean the second floor. Ma Dali and Master Mo made the wooden doors and stair railings themselves, and third brother and third brother are helping. Don't worry, Xiao Xing prepares lunch for them every day, so they will be well fed."
Liu Peiyun asked in surprise: "Ma Dali also knows how to do carpentry work?"
"I know!" Chen Xingling nodded. "He is a master at this level, and his craftsmanship is very good. When he is free, he will make some wooden toys for Xiao Huzi. The wooden horse and windmill at home are all made by him. He loves Xiao Huzi very much."
Liu Peiyun narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Who wouldn't feel sorry for our little tiger? He's really lovable! What is that - the handrail you mentioned just now?"
Chen Xingling explained: "There are two floors in my house. The stairs to the first floor are paved with bricks, not wood. Bricks are harder and more durable, and the cost is lower. There must be handrails on the stairs, otherwise it would be unsafe, so I asked Ma Dali and his team to make the handrails. No matter whether it is the elderly or children, they don't have to worry about falling when they go up."
"Oh!" Liu Peiyun nodded continuously: "That's great! You must remember to make it higher, at least high enough that even little Huzi, who is only a teenager, can't climb up."
Chen Xingling said with a smile: "About 1.2 meters, about the same height as little tiger. Don't worry, little tiger won't crawl."
"What do you know!" Liu Peiyun said, "Little Tiger is very sensible and knows not to do anything dangerous. Other children of his age are all climbing up and down! The fourth child and his family will live there in the future. It is only a matter of time before they have children. We must be careful."
The old man thought it through carefully, so Chen Xingling could only say yes.
The sisters-in-law at the other table heard it and started teasing Zhu Siya with laughter.
"Fourth brother's wife, when the fourth brother comes, you have to work hard!"
"The factory needs to be run and the baby needs to be born, so hurry up!"
Zhu Siya blushed and said, "...No hurry, wait a little longer."
The eldest sister-in-law shook her head: "We have to be anxious. The fourth child is already in his thirties, not young anymore! When our eldest child was in his thirties, he was already the father of three children."
"That's right! Be quick. The sooner you give birth, the faster your body will recover!"
"Xiaoya, you are already quite old, you'd better hurry up!"
After all, Zhu Siya had just gotten married not long ago, and everyone kept teasing her, which made her blush unconsciously. She didn't know how to respond, so she could only eat shyly with her head down.
"Alright, alright." Liu Peiyun interrupted with a smile: "Everyone, eat first. The baby can grow slowly. If you don't eat, it will be hard. It's more important to eat first!"
All the sisters-in-law laughed happily.
Zhu Siya looked at her mother-in-law with gratitude, pursed her lips and smiled softly, feeling warm in her heart.
After lunch, a group of sisters-in-law helped to clean up. Some wiped the table, some washed the dishes, and some swept the floor. Soon everything was cleaned up.
Chen Xingling said goodbye to everyone and was about to leave with his bicycle, but was stopped by Zhu Siya.
"I... I just thought about it and I feel that I can't move into the city yet." Zhu Siya was a little at a loss: "If your fourth brother doesn't come, I don't dare to sleep alone in the factory."
Chen Xingling was in a dilemma and explained, "But our embroidery factory has to start operating right away. We have to rush out a large batch of goods while business is good. We need to recruit employees and prepare fabrics and threads, which are not something that can be done in a short time."
If it can't sell well, it has to be produced quickly and rushed to the market.
There is such demand in the market now, but it may not be there in the future, so we must seize this opportunity quickly. Time waits for no man, and if we miss it, we will definitely not make money.
It would take at least a month for the fourth brother to come, and it might take more than two months. Because the typhoon season was coming, the ship would most likely be delayed at sea, and the itinerary could not be fixed.
He can't come for the time being, but the embroidery factory can't wait until he comes.
In addition, she and Ma Dali will be busy with Director Guo's house, and they have to go to Yuda from time to time. They are busy during the day and at night, so they can't spare that much time to help out at the embroidery factory.
The first chapter has just begun, and the embroidery factory must have a permanent soul figure. She and Ma Dali are incompetent, and the fourth brother is far away overseas, so this person can only be the fourth sister-in-law in front of her.
Chen Xingling explained: "Sister-in-law, I am planning to produce a large batch of goods before my fourth brother comes. This time it is 1,000 pieces, and we will try to produce 1,000 pieces next time. Such a large quantity cannot be produced in a day or two, so we must do it quickly. When my fourth brother comes, he can go to the shipping company to ask his colleagues for help and send the goods out again. It is not easy to make a delivery, and it will take at least one and a half months. In addition, it will take at least three or four months to prepare for the receipt of the goods. The cycle of making money is very long, so we must control the time well."
Zhu Siya was also embarrassed and whispered: "It's too unfamiliar over there, and there are not many neighbors nearby..."
She had only been to the city a few times, and stayed in Huiqiao Village the rest of the time. She only knew a few people in the city, and they were all around her sister-in-law.
The factory site was very spacious, and the factory building was empty inside and out. Asking her to move there immediately, and live alone - the thought of it made her feel uneasy.
Chen Xingling groaned, and said, "After two days, we'll finish packing and hold the housewarming ceremony first, and then we'll discuss it later. It's really not safe for you to live alone, so you can stay over at Sanyuan at night, and I'll accompany you there during the day. By the way, Fourth Sister-in-law, can you ride a motorcycle now?"
"No." Zhu Siya stopped: "I don't know how to ride a motorcycle, I only know how to drive a car - a sedan."
Chen Xingling didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then no one drives the motorcycle my fourth brother bought?"
"Yes!" Zhu Siya pointed to her own house. "It's just on the first floor and attracts dust. My eldest brother and his friends drive a tractor into the city every day and come back in the evening. They can't drive a motorcycle. It seems that only the fourth and third brothers in the family can drive, and no one else can."
Chen Xingling couldn't bear to listen any longer and couldn't help asking, "Why don't you guys learn?"
If she didn't have one at home, it would be understandable that she couldn't drive. But she had already bought a motorcycle for half a century, why didn't she learn how to drive it? Why didn't her other brothers learn from her?
Zhu Siya shook her head in disdain: "It's too heavy and hard to push. Your fourth brother taught me, but I always have trouble controlling the clutch and the accelerator. If your fourth brother hadn't been behind me and took over in time, I would have fallen to the ground. After that incident, I was completely afraid."
Chen Xingling shrugged helplessly: "If you can drive a motorcycle, it will be much more convenient to go back and forth. It will take at most ten minutes to get to the village. Leave in the morning and come back in the evening. You don't have to spend so much time on the road. If that's the case, you don't have to stay at the factory at night."
"No." Zhu Siya refused without a second thought, "I don't dare to learn anymore... Besides, outside the village, the rest of the roads are all dirt roads, full of potholes and hard to ride."
