"Host, why don't you hire a sales clerk?"
“I need to go back to the system space to replenish my energy every few days, and I can’t always be outside handling these miscellaneous tasks for you. Why don’t we just hire a salesperson?”
After helping Lin Xue for a few days in the guise of Hanmei, 629 had to return to the system space.
This is the system's mechanism, and there's no way to change it.
Seeing its host working so hard all by itself, it really felt sorry for it.
"We can wait a bit before hiring. We'll call my sister-in-law over later. We can't let others make the money!"
"When you're able to come out next time, I'll call home in advance and ask my sister-in-law to come and help!"
"Just say you own this clothing store, and you can pay my sister-in-law's salary later!"
This shop definitely can't be said to belong to Lin Xue; people's eyes will turn red when there's enough profit to be made.
Although the Han family seems to be doing well now, who can guarantee they won't have other ulterior motives when faced with huge profits?
"Fine, anyway, your sister-in-law's children are all grown up, and she doesn't plan to have any more!"
"Since we've already invited your sister-in-law, why not invite your brother too? The garment factory we work with is hiring delivery drivers, so let your brother give it a try!"
He said he was just trying it out, but since 629 said it out loud, it means he was confident.
"Alright, once the couple has settled down in the city, it's up to them whether they want to bring the kids over!"
"I've been exhausted these past two days while you were gone. I didn't expect our clothes to sell so well. I have to go pick up the goods every two days. I feel like no matter how much the garment factory produces, it won't be enough to meet our demand!"
Lin Xue truly hadn't expected that women of this era would be so persistent in their pursuit of fashion.
Moreover, the clothing designs created by 629 are indeed beautiful.
Several of these styles are haute couture pieces, and their prices have always been very high. In an era when the average worker's salary is only seven or eight hundred yuan, those few haute couture pieces are equivalent to half a month's salary for a worker.
In this way, several sets of those clothes were sold in the past two days.
Originally, only ordinary workers came to buy from this small shop, but after a few days, even wealthy upper-class women would often come to take a look.
Although I don't buy it every time, just one purchase is equivalent to dozens of other outfits.
"Host, you have to trust my judgment. I believe I understand you better than you humans do!"
629's words were a little arrogant, since he was the one who designed all those clothes.
Although it incorporates perspectives from several worlds, it doesn't simply copy them; instead, it adds its own insights.
"Yes, my system is the best!"
After stealing a moment of respite from her busy schedule, it was soon time to leave work, and a large influx of customers poured in, forcing Lin Xue to return to her hectic state.
When 629 told her she could be released the next day, Lin Xue immediately called her hometown.
"Hello, is this Han Family Village?"
"Yes, I am the village chief of Hanjiacun Village. Who are you looking for?"
"Uncle Han, it's me! I'm Han Xiaoxue, the daughter of Cai Dajiao."
[Oh, it's Xiaoxue! I heard you went out to work. How's it going?]
"I'm doing fine here, but we're short-staffed and a bit overwhelmed, so I called my older brother and sister-in-law to ask if they'd be willing to come over!"
【You mean you found jobs for your older brother and sister-in-law? That's great! I'll go get your parents right now. Call me back in five minutes!】
After saying that, Village Chief Han hung up the phone without waiting for Lin Xue's reply and ran towards Old Han's house.
Village Chief Han is now over 50 years old, but he was clenching his fists and jogging as he arrived at Old Han's house.
The villagers on the road were quite surprised. What urgent matter had the village chief encountered that made him run around like this?
"Sister-in-law, is she home?"
As soon as they arrived at the gate of Old Han's house, Village Chief Han shouted for people to come inside.
"I'm at home, village chief. What do you want?"
Han's mother was mending clothes for her grandson at home when she heard the village chief's loud voice and immediately came out to greet him.
"Your Xiaoxue is calling, she wants you and your eldest son to go over and answer the phone!"
"I heard their factory is short-staffed, and I was wondering if your eldest son would be willing to go there!"
In his haste, the old village chief didn't realize that he had only conveyed half of his message.
Lin Xue was referring to his elder brother and sister-in-law, but in his mouth, they became the eldest son of the Han family.
"Wow, it seems Xiaoxue's classmate is reliable; she thought of home so quickly!"
Han's mother patted the dust off her clothes and followed the old village chief toward the village office.
Just before leaving, he remembered to call out to his eldest son's family, but upon hearing the news, his other sons and daughters-in-law couldn't help but follow him.
I bumped into Old Man Han, who was strolling back from outside, as soon as I stepped out. Now, the entire Han family, young and old, had gone to the village office.
The village chief sat in his office chair, with the elderly Han couple sitting opposite him, while the other young people stood around him.
Everyone stared intently at the landline on the table, their gazes so intense they almost made the phone smoke.
"Ring ring!"
As soon as the phone rang, the old village chief answered it immediately.
"Hey Xiaoxue, your parents are here. I'll give them the phone now!"
The village chief chuckled and handed the phone to Han's mother. It was clear to everyone that Old Man Han had a low status in the Han family.
"Mom, phone calls are expensive, let's keep it short!"
【Okay, fine!】
"Daughter, just tell me what's wrong. I heard from the old village chief that you want your older brother to go and help you, is that true? Will the factory even hire him?"
In the Han family, only the last two children went to high school; the highest level of education among the older children was only junior high school.
Han Laoda only has a primary school diploma, and it was only through his mother's insistence and perseverance that he was able to finish fifth grade.
You have to understand that back then every family was poor, and not every family was willing to let their children go to school.
Moreover, at that time, primary schools only had five grades, and most children would only study for one or two years to learn some characters before moving on.
“I mainly hire female workers here, and I wanted my sister-in-law to come and help me. But I was thinking that if my sister-in-law came, my brother would definitely have a hard time on his own, so I asked my brother to come along too!”
"Hanmei found me a job hauling goods at the factory we're working with. It's a three-wheeled vehicle, and it doesn't require much skill. My older brother can do it!"
Lin Xue kept the conversation brief on the phone, explaining that phone calls in those days were charged by the minute, and the prices weren't low.
So after saying what needed to be said, Han's mother was asked to go back and discuss it with her family.
The main reason is that the eldest brother and sister-in-law have no children to burden them, and their youngest child is already 6 years old, so the two elderly people can help take care of him for the time being.
The other brothers have younger children at home, and the children are too young to be separated from their mother.
