In less than an hour and a half, three quarters of the more than 8,000 hair bands brought by Zhao Zhenzhu and her team were sold.
As work hours approached, the crowd gradually thinned out.
"Sister, after we sell all these hair circles, can we go to a state-owned restaurant for a meal?" He Bo patted his shoulder bag and looked at Zhao Zhenzhu with sparkling eyes.
He Bo estimated that in just over an hour, they had sold more than one thousand and almost two thousand yuan.
He Bo knew that he could make money by following Zhao Zhenzhu, but he didn't expect to make so much.
"No need to wait until all the goods are sold out to eat. Let's close the stall now and go." Zhao Zhenzhu waved her hand, signaling Erniu to quickly pick up the hair ties on the ground.
It's already past one in the afternoon, and in order to sell hair bands, Zhao Zhenzhu and the other two didn't even have lunch.
After making money, it is only right to have a good meal at a state-owned restaurant.
"Brother He, let me stay! Just bring me two buns later." Erniu said weakly.
Erniu was reluctant to leave.
Such a good business, if you delay it for half an hour, you will lose a lot of money!
Besides, it was so expensive to eat at a state-owned restaurant! He Ge paid him two yuan a day, including food, lodging and train tickets. This treatment was good enough. He couldn't let He Ge spend any more money.
"Sister Zhenzhu, look..." He Bo knew Erniu's little thoughts and couldn't help but look at Zhao Zhenzhu.
"No, let's go together." Zhao Zhenzhu disagreed.
Erniu was honest and hardworking. He did a lot of work in half a day.
Zhao Zhenzhu never treats honest people unfairly.
It’s just a meal, it’s not like Zhao Zhenzhu can’t afford it.
"Erniu, listen to Sister Zhenzhu and pack your things quickly." He Bo squatted down and started putting the hair ties into the bag.
Their stall was very simple. There was a piece of plastic cloth on the ground with more than a hundred hair bands lying on it. When they were almost sold out, they would take a few more hair bands out of the bag.
Anyway, each of these hair bands looks good when taken individually, and people who buy them won’t have any objections.
"Brother He, let me clean up. You and Sister Zhenzhu stand here and take a rest." Erniu hurriedly rushed to do the work.
"Sister, will we come again after dinner?" He Bo asked.
"No need to come. No one will come out to buy things during working hours. You can come after get off work, or you can set up shop in front of other factories." Zhao Zhenzhu suggested.
"Sister, Erniu and I should come here after get off work! We'll go to another place tomorrow. They should change shifts the day after tomorrow, so we'll come here again." He Bo thought for a moment and said.
Women workers in cotton mills make up the majority of those working in the workshops.
The workshop works in three shifts.
The day shift is from 8am to 4pm. The midday shift is from 4pm to 12pm, and the night shift is from 12pm to 8am. There is also a shift of workers who take turns to rest.
There are four shifts of workers, who rotate every two days.
"Okay, you arrange the sales matters yourself! I will go back to Taohua Town after dinner." Zhao Zhenzhu said.
The more than 3,000 kilograms of scraps of cloth purchased today are still waiting for Zhao Zhenzhu to go back and arrange production!
Zhao Zhenzhu watched for more than an hour and had a rough idea of the aesthetic taste of the female workers in Qingshan County.
Erniu was very efficient. While Zhao Zhenzhu and He Bo were talking, Erniu had already packed up his stall. The mouth of the cloth bag containing the hair band was also tied tightly.
Erniu picked up the cloth bag and the three of them were preparing to leave.
"Hey! Wait, hey, those guys selling hair bands in front, wait a minute." At this time, a woman shouted and trotted over.
Zhao Zhenzhu looked up and thought, oh, life is full of surprises...there is no joy.
The person who came was Zhao Zhenzhu's sister-in-law Zhou Meimei.
Zhou Meimei stayed at her parents' home for a day. After taking five yuan from Ding Ermei, she hurried back to the county town early the next morning.
If she stayed any longer, Zhou Meimei was afraid that her fact that she had taken the hospital's six-dollar refund would be exposed and the money would be taken back by Zhou Bingqiang.
Anyway, Ding Ermei is in good health. Zhou Meimei feels that instead of staying at her mother's house, it would be better to go back to the county town to take apart the quilts and other things at home and wash them!
Because she didn’t go to work today, Zhou Meimei missed the opportunity to buy “the new and trendy goods from Guangzhou City” at noon today.
Zhou Meimei watched the trio selling hair bands leave from afar and quickly trotted over.
Zhou Meimei's eyes were fixed on the bag in Erniu's hand, and she ignored Zhao Zhenzhu.
Zhao Zhenzhu is dressed so fashionably today.
In Zhou Meimei's impression, her third sister-in-law Zhao Zhenzhu was an old-fashioned, timid and unpresentable rural woman.
The "fashionable beauty" in front of me couldn't possibly be Zhao Zhenzhu.
"Comrade, what do you want from us?" He Bo couldn't help but ask when he saw Zhou Meimei catch up with them and her eyes were fixed on the cloth bag in Erniu's hand.
"You're selling hair bands, right? I want to buy one. Please pour them out so I can choose." Zhou Meimei said bluntly.
Zhou Meimei wanted to pick out the prettiest hairband and go back to slap Su Xiaoyun in the face.
Zhou Meimei and Su Xiaoyun entered the factory at about the same time and worked in the same workshop.
At the beginning, Zhou Meimei and Su Xiaoyun were good friends.
When Xiaoyun and Zhou Meimei's husband Wang Liping went on a blind date, it was Zhou Meimei who accompanied Xiaoyun.
As a result, Wang Liping and Zhou Meimei got together.
After Su Xiaoyun and Zhou Meimei had a falling out, she found a better-off in-law family than Wang Liping's.
Zhou Meimei felt uncomfortable. No matter what Su Xiaoyun did, Zhou Meimei always felt that Su Xiaoyun was trying to compete with her.
This afternoon, Su Xiaoyun bought a hair band and tied her hair into a high ponytail after returning to the dormitory building.
After taking a look, Zhou Meimei's husband Wang Liping repeatedly said that Su Xiaoyun looked different today than usual.
Zhou Meimei felt like there was a thorn in her heart.
Zhou Meimei felt that a naturally beautiful person like herself would definitely be more beautiful than Xiaoyun with a hairband.
After Wang Liping went to work, Zhou Meimei cleaned up the dishes and hurried to the factory gate to buy a hair band.
"Oh." Hearing that Zhou Meimei wanted to buy a hair band, the honest Erniu responded and put the bag on the ground.
Erniu was about to untie the rope tied around the bag when he was stopped by He Bo.
He Bo's stomach was growling with hunger. In addition, Zhao Zhenzhu had promised to go to the state-owned restaurant to eat delicious food, so He Bo's heart had already flown to the state-owned restaurant.
Plus, when Zhou Meimei said she wanted to buy a hair band, her tone wasn’t good at all.
When she bought a hair tie, she even asked to pour out the whole bag of hair ties for her to choose from. He Bo didn't want to serve.
"We are closing the stall. Please come back after four o'clock to buy." He Bo said.
"Why aren't you selling it anymore? I'm here now, so just pour them out so I can pick one." Zhou Meimei was unhappy.
"Erniu, let's go." He Bo was too lazy to talk to Zhou Meimei, so he greeted her and led the way forward.
Erniu always listens to He Bo.
As soon as He Bo called out, Erniu immediately picked up the cloth bag and followed.
"You can't leave." Zhou Meimei was anxious and grabbed the bag in Erniu's hand and dragged him back.
