Although the weather was hot, the trendy clothing store, as the first individual business to open in Qingshan County, still caused a sensation.
On the first day of trial operation, there were many people watching and quite a few people came into the store to buy, so business was quite booming.
As one piece of clothing after another was sold, Lian Rongrong finally felt relieved. It seemed that Jiang Yue would definitely make a profit, so she wouldn't have to return her wages to Jiang Yue.
It's just over two hundred yuan, but it's her husband's salary for most of the previous six months. She has worked hard on the sewing machine every day for the past two months, and it's also earned through her labor. If she wants to return it, she will cry to death.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Yue and Lian Rongrong were exhausted after working non-stop all day, so they decided to close the shop and go home early.
"Rongrong, my sister-in-law will come over later. I'll treat you to a meal! You've worked so hard today!" Jiang Yue had no idea of Lian Rongrong's worries. She was just very touched to see that Lian Rongrong had been working very hard to help greet guests throughout the day.
Lian Rongrong felt a little embarrassed, wondering if she was being a little petty. "Jiang Yue, don't be polite to me. You have helped us become rich, and I can't thank you enough!"
Jiang Yue rubbed his waist and smiled: "Then let's not be polite, let's count first and see how much we have sold today."
After counting the empty hangers, Lian Rongrong was shocked. "A total of 186 tops and 62 pairs of shorts and skirts were sold."
"We also sold eleven pieces of women's clothing!" Jiang Yue had actually expected that business would be good before opening the store, but she didn't expect sales to be so hot on the first day.
It seems that she still underestimated the purchasing power of the residents of this era and their desire to buy that had been suppressed for too long!
The problem is that the denominations of the money are too small, and Jiang Yue and Lian Rongrong had to count the money head to head for half an hour before they could sort it out.
Because Jiang Yue was having a promotion today of 20% off for one item and 25% off for two items, many people bought two in a row. Even if they didn't buy two T-shirts, they would buy a T-shirt and shorts or a short skirt together. Together with the women's clothing, the total sales today amounted to 1,123 yuan.
"That's a lot of money!" Lian Rongrong had never seen such a thick stack of bills in her life. Her eyes widened, her hands trembled, and her brain could hardly think. She said excitedly, "Jiang Yue, if you can make a thousand yuan a day, you will be rich!"
"Today is the first day of opening, so business will be better. Tomorrow it may not be so good." Jiang Yue is still very rational. He will not be carried away by today's booming business and think that he can sell thousands of dollars every day in the future.
But now she has a clear idea in her mind that selling clothes is the right path to take.
Jiang Yue divided the money into denominations, tied them up with rubber bands, and put them into the leather bag she carried with her. She found this bag in the closet and it should be Gu Ye's. Although it was a bit big, it could hold a lot of things.
As soon as the money was put in, the wallet immediately became bulging.
At this time, Mrs. Zhao came over with Ningning and Zhao Yuanqi, and Zhao Cui followed behind.
Jiang Yue was busy today, so she entrusted Ningning to the care of Sister Zhao.
After learning that business was good today, Mrs. Zhao felt relieved and helped tidy up and clean the store with Zhao Cui.
Jiang Yue closed the window. At that time, the door was still made of wooden boards, which had to be inserted into the grooves on the ground one by one. The grooves between each board had to be aligned, and finally the door panel could be installed.
The door panel was so heavy that Jiang Yue didn't know how to take it down the first time. After she finally took it down, she couldn't put it back up again. It was with He Jingxuan's help that she finally figured out how to put this old-style door panel down.
Thinking of He Jingxuan, Jiang Yue glanced at the floor-standing electric fans in the store.
It is now July, the weather is hot, and there are many customers today. Jiang Yue and Lian Rongrong are busy all the time. After a while, they are soaked in sweat. Jiang Yue was thinking about bringing the electric fan from home tomorrow, but He Jingxuan brought her a floor fan first.
Jiang Yue was definitely embarrassed to ask for it, but He Jingxuan said that he had two fans at home and this one could be lent to Jiang Yue first, so Jiang Yue couldn't refuse.
Jiang Yue had more contact with He Jingxuan during this period. She could feel that He Jingxuan had a kind nature, good character, strong abilities, and was very enthusiastic. She didn't know what was wrong with him in the original book, and why he turned evil inexplicably.
He Jingxuan had to go to work, so he took some time in the morning to deliver the electric fan and then left. Jiang Yue planned to thank He Jingxuan for his help after the store stabilized in a few days.
The group went to a state-owned restaurant, and Jiang Yue generously ordered braised pork, Kung Pao chicken, shredded pork with fish flavor, scrambled eggs with seasonal vegetables, and mushroom egg soup.
"Jiang Yue, let's go back and eat. This little piece of land is too much! What a waste!" When Mrs. Zhao and Lian Rongrong saw Jiang Yue taking out five dollars and a handful of food coupons, they hurriedly stopped her.
"Sister-in-law, Rongrong, you have all worked hard today. You don't eat out every day, so let's have a good meal and treat ourselves!" Jiang Yue didn't think it was a waste. The purpose of making money was to enjoy life. Eating out in a restaurant occasionally would make both adults and children happy.
The dishes cooked in the state-owned restaurant were rich in fat and tasted good. Everyone was very satisfied with the meal and it was already past seven o'clock in the evening when they returned to the staff quarters.
When Jiang Yue returned home, she put the money away first. She had a locked iron box. She kept some change and put the rest of the money in the iron box, locked it, and then hid it in the innermost part of the closet.
After a tiring day, Jiang Yue and Ningning took a shower and went to bed soon after.
Jiang Yue knew she was dreaming again because she saw Gu Ye again, this time not in the dense forest, but in a very empty field.
Gu Ye was still wearing his combat uniform and carrying a combat backpack, walking cautiously in the dead silent field. Beside him, there were more than a dozen soldiers with the same equipment, all of them looked solemn and nervous.
Although the combat helmet blocked his face, Jiang Yue could still feel Gu Ye's nervousness. His exposed jaw was tense and he seemed to have considered every step for a long time. Beads of sweat dripped down his well-defined jaw and fell onto his collar.
Jiang Yue unconsciously wanted to reach out and touch Gu Ye, but a ripple seemed to spread out in front of her eyes, and her hand was blocked by something.
Gu Ye's grip on the gun seemed to tighten, and his drooping eyelashes trembled.
Jiang Yue was a little anxious. She didn't know where she was, nor was she sure whether the scene she saw was real or just a dream, but she clearly felt the tense atmosphere that was suppressed to the extreme.
What is Gu Ye doing?
Jiang Yue wanted to call Gu Ye, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she suddenly opened her eyes and gasped.
Jiang Yue sat up suddenly from the bed, feeling her throat tighten and her heart beating as if it was about to explode.
"Huh!" In the darkness, Jiang Yue was gasping for breath, his mind was in a mess and he could hardly think.
The next morning, before the wakeup call was sounded, Jiang Yue had already gotten up and knocked on the door of Political Commissar Tang's house.
