Chapter 299 You can’t cheat me like this, right?
"I'm thinking, there are two main things we need to solve now. The first is the sewing machine, which must be repaired!"
"The second thing is to get the job. Today's trip to the supply and marketing cooperative was a failure, so next time we must succeed!"
Meng Xiaoxiao and Xia Jing both nodded. They also knew this truth, but how to change the situation now?
"The sewing machine is a rare item, and there may not be anyone in town who can repair it, but we can ask others for help!"
"Who do you want to help?" Meng Xiaoxiao looked at Zhou Hao in confusion. It was said that this was a rare item and not many people knew how to use it, let alone repair it.
"Xiaoxiao, have you forgotten that there are many soldiers on the reservoir? Some of them must have done maintenance work when they were in the army, right? Even if they haven't repaired sewing machines, the maintenance of many things is similar. We can ask them to come over and help!"
Meng Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. How could she forget the soldier at the reservoir?
There are indeed people here who know how to do repairs, and some are good at it. Maybe there are even people who have repaired sewing machines before?
"That's fine. I'll go to the reservoir and ask later!"
Meng Xiaoxiao took the job. She didn't want to lose too much money. She didn't ask for much profit, but at least she shouldn't lose money, right?
"What about your second question?"
Xia Jing's eyes lit up a bit, Zhou Hao continued, "The second thing is to open up sales channels at the supply and marketing cooperatives! I just heard you say that the clothes made by Jingjing are mainly a little ahead of the times, so why should we be ahead of the times? Can't we make them according to the previous styles?"
Meng Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and Xia's mother also felt as if something had suddenly dawned on her.
"Yes, Jingjing, you can make that kind of formal clothes, right? You don't have to think too much about it, can't you just make it according to the original Xia Liang?"
"This..." Xia Jing frowned. She followed Xia Liang's instructions, but she always felt like she was picking up something Xia Liang didn't want.
She still wants to have her own personality, but the current conditions do not allow it!
"Xia Jing, just tell me something. Can you make the kind of decent clothes I just mentioned?"
Xia Jing nodded hastily, but there was some hesitation on her face: "I can make that kind of clothes, but the people at the supply and marketing cooperative no longer believe me!"
After what happened today, her reputation in the supply and marketing cooperative was completely ruined. She could still clearly remember the way people looked at her, as if they were looking at a psychopath!
It's obvious that they have no vision, so why do they think she did a bad job?
"So the second method I mentioned is also very simple! We first save up some money and go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cloth. This time we don't need to buy the best cloth, just ordinary cloth, and let Jingjing make two ordinary clothes, also according to the size of ordinary people. After they are made, we send them to the supply and marketing cooperative and use a relatively low price to impress them!"
Zhou Hao's words left the women silent.
Meng Xiaoxiao still had the twenty yuan she had just received in her hand! Zhou Hao's idea was good, but she knew without thinking that she was the one who had to pay!
But on what basis? Meng Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that Zhou Hao also had money. This was his wife, and the money they earned was split equally between them. She had already paid more than two hundred yuan, so it wouldn't be too much for Xia Jing to pay for the rest, right?
So Meng Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but Mother Xia spoke first: "I think this idea is good! Although we have to spend money to buy fabrics at the beginning, we can sell them at the supply and marketing cooperative after they are made. If someone likes them, the price can be negotiated! In the end, we won't lose money! But now that the sales channel is opened, we will make more money in the future!"
Zhou Hao was the one who put forward the suggestion, so naturally he didn't object!
“I think that’s true too!”
Several people looked at Meng Xiaoxiao together.
"I have no problem with that either, but I'm out of money. I only have these twenty dollars left, and I'm keeping them for future use. You guys should figure out how to invest this time!"
"Hey, Xiaoxiao, please don't be like this! You know we don't have any money!"
Mother Xia was immediately displeased. She quickly ran to Meng Xiaoxiao, grabbed her arm, and said with an extremely courteous look: "Xiaoxiao, my good girl, this is an opportunity for us to make money together. Just lend it to Jingjing first!"
Meng Xiaoxiao was still a little uncomfortable with Xia's mother's approach. She quickly took two steps back and pulled her arm away: "I really have no money on me. Don't think about taking my twenty yuan."
Meng Xiaoxiao said bluntly, her eyes fell on Zhou Hao: "Even if you want to take advantage of me, you don't have to chase me alone!"
Mother Xia...isn't it because they have no money?
Xia Jing...it's not like I won't share some with you when I make money in the future, right?
Zhou Hao...he is also a poor man!
"Zhou Hao, why don't you lend your hundred yuan to Xia Jing?"
Zhou Hao was speechless, as he only had a hundred yuan on him, which was left to him by his mother, saying that it was for emergency use.
If he had known this, he shouldn't have taken it out yesterday. Damn it, it was his own fault for not thinking it through.
…
"Xiaoxiao, how could you trick me?"
After discussing the future, Meng Xiaoxiao decided to go to the reservoir to find someone who could repair the sewing machine. Zhou Hao hurriedly followed.
"After all, I saved you once, you can't cheat me like this, right?"
Zhou Hao felt very aggrieved. Now he and Meng Xiaoxiao lived under the same roof. How could Meng Xiaoxiao cheat him?
"Hey, Zhou Hao, I don't like what you said. Do you think your wife will cheat you?"
"Don't forget that Xia Jing is your wife. I bought the sewing machine, and I've already paid the bulk of the bill. You two don't want to pay anything? You don't want to pay anything but yourself, and you and I share the money. How can you be so shameless?"
Zhou Hao...can he say that he has been with Xia Jing for a long time and feels that he is an unreliable person? If it were Xia Liang, he would definitely take out the money without hesitation!
"I, I didn't mean that!"
"Then what are you afraid of?" Seeing Zhou Hao's hesitation, Meng Xiaoxiao sneered. In fact, neither of them believed Xia Jing. They both knew it clearly, so they didn't need to pretend!
"Besides, your money is only temporary! Once she finishes making the clothes and sells them, won't the money be returned to her?"
Zhou Hao was a little confused. Can the clothes made by Xia Jing really be sold?
He shouldn't have taken out the hundred dollars yesterday.
"Okay, I still have to find someone to help fix the sewing machine! Only when the sewing machine is fixed can we move on to the next step, otherwise, we can't do anything!"
That bitch Xia Liang asked for ten dollars a day. They dared not continue to go there to borrow the sewing machine!
