Liu Hongying immediately had the urge to wear this hairpin to show off in front of the childhood sweetheart who had humiliated her before.
"I like this. It's so pretty." Liu Hongying couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. She turned the hairpin over and over again, as if she wanted to see a flower.
"As long as you like it." Ruan Mianmian didn't say much. She pointed to the hair band that Liu Hongying was holding in her other hand and asked, "Can you give this back to me?"
Liu Hongying was stunned for a moment, then after she realized what was happening, she smiled and said embarrassedly, "Can you sell this to me?"
When she said this, her voice was very low, and only Ruan Mianmian and Ding Rong, who were standing nearby, heard it.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Liu Hongying continued, "I like this one too, so I want to keep it for myself. You have such a skillful hand, you should be able to make something better looking."
She liked the remade hairpin very much, but she also liked the hair band, so she didn't want to return it.
Ruan Mianmian nodded, "Sure. Just give me this number." Then, Ruan Mianmian held up four fingers.
Liu Hongying immediately understood, took out four cents from her pocket and stuffed it into Ruan Mianmian's hand, then left quickly.
It seemed as if he was afraid that she would go back on her word.
Ding Rong looked at Liu Hongying's back and silently gave Ruan Mianmian a thumbs up.
Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "How long will it take until I get off work?"
Ding Rong looked at the clock on the wall in the middle of the supply and marketing cooperative and said, "It's still a while. What's the matter? Do you want to talk to me about something?"
Ruan Mianmian nodded, "There is something I want to discuss with you."
Ding Rong had a vague idea in her mind, so she said to Ruan Mianmian, "Wait for me at the back door." Then she went directly to the office of the director of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Ruan Mianmian didn't say anything more and went straight to the agreed place to wait for Ding Rong.
By the way, I went over my thoughts again in my mind.
"Let's go. I've asked for leave. Let's find a place to talk while walking." Ding Rong came to the back door of the supply and marketing cooperative, took Ruan Mianmian and left.
Since we want to discuss something, we have to find a place where there are not many people.
It was obviously not appropriate to go to Ding Rong's house, as she had a large family, and Ruan Mianmian had no place to stay in the county. The state-owned restaurant was also crowded. In the end, the two had no choice but to go to the park and find a deserted grassy area to sit down.
"Tell me what you think." After the two of them sat down, Ding Rong was the first to lose her temper. She didn't know if what Ruan Mianmian wanted to say to her was the same as what she thought.
Ruan Mianmian looked at Ding Rong's face and asked directly, "Does your supply and marketing cooperative accept decorations such as hairpins?"
Ding Rong shook her head helplessly, "No. Because they are not easy to sell. The ones originally in the supply and marketing cooperative were also purchased a long time ago. At least before I went to work in the supply and marketing cooperative."
"Your products are too ugly. If I replace them with the ones I made today, will they sell well?"
"I'm not sure about that." Ding Rong was also unsure.
She herself liked it very much, and seeing how other people around her saw it today, they should like it too.
But this kind of liking doesn't cost any money, so of course it doesn't matter.
If they were really asked to spend money to buy it, it would be a completely different story.
"How about this? I'll make some similar designs to today's, and some others, and you can help me sell them privately first. I'll give you a commission for every piece sold." Ruan Mianmian said what she was thinking.
It was already the autumn of 1975, and it would not be long before the wind changed.
Strictly speaking, the wind direction has already begun to change in some places. But the country is like a huge moving machine. If you want to change the direction of movement, you need to do it step by step.
If the movement is too big or too quick, it is easy to cause huge and irreversible damage to the machine.
You can only do it bit by bit, slowly.
Today's lesbians are severely suppressed, and they actually have an impulse for beauty in their hearts.
Instead of spending several dollars or even tens of dollars on clothes, shoes, etc., it is easier to buy a small item with just a few cents, or even less.
Even if you don't wear it out, it's good to keep it in your hand and treasure it.
However, these are just Ruan Mianmian's ideas, and she still needs to put them into practice.
According to the current rate at which Ruan Mianmian was making money, she really didn't need this little money. However, she wanted to help the captain.
The team leader really had nothing to say to her. Because of the incident between the Ruan family and Liu Shixian, this year's Xiangyang Brigade was no longer eligible to participate in the selection of outstanding production teams.
Ruan Mianmian knew that the captain's obsession was to have the Xiangyang Brigade recognized as advanced during his term of office.
This kind of selfishness is not for himself. Ruan Mianmian actually admires him very much.
She thought that if her idea could be realized, she could set up a production group for handmade decorations in the village. If the village took the lead, the products could be sold to the county, city, or even the province.
If our village has such a village-run enterprise, it should not be difficult to make Xiangyang Brigade more advanced.
After hearing what Ruan Mianmian said, Ding Rong nodded and agreed without hesitation.
She had originally been thinking about whether she could sell the things made by Ruan Mianmian privately.
But she saw today in the supply and marketing cooperative, the female comrades who saw the hairpins modified by Ruan Mianmian, all had sparkling eyes.
She knitted sweaters for others, but she earned very little money after all the hard work. And it took a long time to knit a sweater.
This thing just needs to be sold. Her job is to sell things. For her, it is not difficult.
"Here, pick one you like from these and I'll give it to you. You can help sell the rest." Ruan Mianmian took out a few other hairpins that they had made together before. They were all made of fabric and decorated with different rhinestones.
However, these ones are not of gray-black base, but brighter colors.
There is also the large intestine hair ring that I exchanged from the system mall. I sold one to Liu Hongying, and there are nine left.
In the system mall, Ruan Mianmian can easily change to materials of various colors and textures. Of course, she wants to make it look better.
Ding Rong was delighted when she saw the pile of little things in front of her.
It’s so beautiful, there’s no need to worry about no one wanting it.
She picked out a red double-layer bow clip with rhinestones and put it on the back of her head. She turned around and asked, "Does it look good?"
"It looks good." Ruan Mianmian really thinks it looks good.
