Wan Feng has accumulated assets worth about 6,000 yuan in the clothing industry, and Luan Feng also has assets of about the same amount.
Wan Feng deposited the money for her at the credit union, with a deposit certificate for 3,000 yuan and another for 2,000 yuan.
The rest is used as working capital.
It only took seven or eight months for me to go from making a few hundred yuan a month at the beginning to making over a thousand yuan a month now.
During the past six months, the number of people employed has grown from one sewing machine making a few pieces of clothing a day to more than a dozen sewing machines making hundreds of pieces of clothing a day, and the number of people employed has grown from one or two people to dozens of people including those around them.
Looking back, I feel a sense of accomplishment.
When passing by the carpenter's shop on his way back from the county town, Wan Feng took back five wooden shells from Wang He, and Wang He promised to deliver the remaining five wooden boxes tomorrow afternoon.
After handing over the accounts to Luan Feng, Wan Feng returned to his grandmother's house and started assembling the tape recorders. By dark, all five tape recorders were assembled.
I will bring one to Xia Qiulong tomorrow, and keep the rest at home for future use.
After dinner, when Wan Feng came to Luan Feng's house again, he found that there were several more sewing machines in the sewing workshop, and they were placed in a row under the east wall.
Now this workshop no longer has that empty feeling.
Master Feng stood with his hands behind his back, observing Luan Feng and Jiang Min testing the machine.
"Some parts of the other four sewing machines have been replaced with other sewing machines. They really cannot be repaired unless we go to the manufacturer to get spare parts." There seemed to be regret in Master Feng's words.
"That's great. It's beyond my expectations. Thank you, Master Feng."
After the work was completed, Wan Feng settled the wages for Master Feng. He counted the two and a half days as three days and gave Master Feng 15 yuan in wages.
The trial run was very effective, and Luan Feng showed a satisfied expression.
Gu Qiaoling followed Jiang Min like a little shadow. She learned very hard and Jiang Min taught her sincerely. In just one day, she could cut and make shorts by herself.
At this rate she would be able to cut and sew the pants by simply attaching two legs to the crotch.
The other six new apprentices are already able to cut and sew trousers.
These six apprentices have clearly stated that they will work for Luan Feng after they finish their apprenticeships, so now that there are sewing machines, Luan Feng has allocated one to each of them. By combining theory with practice, the time it takes them to finish their apprenticeships will be greatly shortened.
Now Wan Feng can finally breathe a sigh of relief, as Luan Feng's workshop finally looks like a garment factory.
"Today my brother-in-law came to deliver some clothes and brought a piece of news. Do you think it's helpful? The Black Lagoon Commune is planning to hold a market on the third day of the twelfth lunar month, which is March 8th."
Sanba refers to the 38th day of the lunar calendar, which is the market day.
The opening time of the Black Reef Commune is basically consistent with Wan Feng's memory. If there is no mistake, Qingshan Town will also open the market in the twelfth month of this year. As for the Warrior Commune, it will not open until May next year, followed by the Daying Commune.
The market days for these markets are staggered, with Qingshan on the 5th, Daying on the 16th, and Yongshi on the 27th.
The original market day of Gushan was the 48th, but it was changed to the 49th.
This has created a market cycle with no blind spots in the nearby communes.
At almost the same time, markets were also held in northeastern communes such as Lifang, Huayuan, and Gaoling. Markets also appeared in Hongya County, Goudong County, and especially in Haiyanghong Town near Hongya.
The emergence of these markets can be regarded as a small sign of reform, which shows that the authorities have begun to relax the channels for farmers to do business and provide a small platform.
Some people who are unwilling to participate in rural labor but have a passion and talent for business can become professional market goers.
The emergence of these markets has gradually enriched the variety of goods traded in the markets. Wan Feng asserts that there will soon be people specializing in selling clothing.
If those who sell clothes want to get goods in Hongya, the first choice is naturally Luan Feng. There is also a trend that the Xiliu Clothing Fair will open at the end of August 1.
Wan Feng was wondering if they could make an impact, would the nationally renowned Xiliu Market become the Wahou Market in the future?
This ambition seems a bit too big.
The emergence of Xiliu Market was entirely due to the support of Li xx, who later became a member of the Central Committee and served as the secretary of Anshan at that time. It was because of his support that Xiliu Market developed like a balloon.
However, there seems to be no such leader on the Hongya side.
Regardless of whether such a leader appears or not, Wan Feng firmly believes that as long as he does his best, opportunities will come naturally. Now the goal of the garment factory is to establish itself in the Hongya market and expand to surrounding counties and cities.
As a result, he became nervous again after just feeling relieved about the garment factory's small scale.
If one wants to occupy the clothing market in this coastal area, the current scale of clothing factories is simply not enough, and Luan Feng's factory alone cannot support this market.
If there were more than a dozen garment factories producing on a large scale, perhaps this would be possible.
Wan Feng thought of Chu Guoyi and wondered if his clothing store would still exist after the cloth coupons were gone.
If he exists, shouldn't we support him?
"Of course this is good news for us. We can sell clothes at the market and give your sister some new styles. Let her make more styles and save up some goods so we can set up a stall at the market on the first day. Maybe it will be a big hit. Winter is coming soon, and there is still a month before the Black Lagoon market opens. There is still time."
"Okay, Erman happens to be going back tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to tell me the news."
"Hmm? What's Erman going back for?"
"Jiang Wen asked me to go to Erman's house to propose marriage, so Erman has to go back and report it."
Wan Feng approached Erman with a sinister look on his face and stared at her intently.
Li Erman had a feeling of being unlucky.
"What are you looking at me for?"
"Hey, Sister Erman, at this rate of development, you'll probably become a descendant of the Wa family next year, right?"
"So what?"
"I'm really looking forward to your wedding. It's going to be a great day. I'm going to buy a pound of soybeans."
An apprentice named Yueying, standing in the depression behind Li Erman's machine, asked, "Why are you picking soybeans for Erman's wedding?"
"Hey, this is a secret and I can't tell you."
Li Erman felt like crying. Damn the little monster! A pound of soybeans! If the little monster really hid all the soybeans on Jiang Wen's body on the wedding night, she would have nothing to do all night but look for soybeans.
"Is it okay if I don't call you Master's Wife anymore?"
When Yueying heard the name "Master's Wife" and smiled like Pan Jinlian, Wan Feng's target shifted to Yueying.
"Your smile is quite creative. I guess I'll have to buy two pounds of soybeans when you get married."
Yueying didn't understand the meaning of Huangdou and didn't take it seriously.
When Li Erman heard that Yueying had more soybeans than her, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
