Chapter 117 Level Up
"Director Ma, what are you doing here?" Chen Yi walked over and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Seeing her coming back, Ma Li asked, "What else can you do? You said you were drawing a blueprint. You've been gone all afternoon and it's almost dark."
"I said I'd file a report with the factory, but he didn't come back. How can I not be anxious?"
Chen Yi felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, because she hadn't thought of asking the master to do it at first.
She came out to find a place to make clothes, but when she saw the department store, she thought of asking others to do it.
"I'm sorry, Director Ma, I didn't explain the situation."
Ma Li waved her hand, "It's okay, go in first."
She was also worried about Chen Yi, otherwise she wouldn't be waiting here. She didn't know where the person had gone, so she could only wait and couldn't go out to look for her.
The two people entered the house, and Chen Yi took out the things in the bag and handed them to her.
Ma Li looked at the paper and guessed what it was. She was a little excited. She opened the drawing and took a look, but she didn't understand it.
Well, she's not that talented either.
"Sister Li, take a look at this dress." Chen Yi spread the clothes out on the table.
"This..." Ma Li's eyes lit up. Isn't this dress so beautiful?
Although she didn't understand what the dress was, she thought it would look good in her clothes.
After thinking about it, she said, "Chen Yi, put it on and let me see. It won't look good if it's laid flat."
After all, I have worked as a purchasing department cadre for so many years, so I have a lot of opinions on this aspect.
Clothes can only be seen when they are worn. What can you see when they are hung on the wall?
Chen Yi thought about it and agreed, so she closed the curtains and changed her clothes.
This dress is in a small size. After all, there are not many fat people at that time. Generally, clothes are divided into two sizes, large and small. People who are fatter have to have them custom-made. Ready-made clothes are rare.
The clothes fit her perfectly after she put them on. No wonder the master didn't ask for the size. It turned out that he could see what size was suitable for her.
"It looks great. Is this a shirt?" Ma Li couldn't help but nodded when she saw her wearing it.
The collar of that shirt is not a folded collar like an ordinary shirt, but a medium-high collar with a circle of patterns on it, which looks very good.
This is a style of clothing that I have never seen before. It is both novel and beautiful.
Chen Yi replied: "It can be considered a type of shirt. The collar can be exposed when wearing a coat. It looks better than wearing a gauze scarf or silk scarf."
Ma Li nodded and said, indeed, those things are easy to fall off when worn, and they will hurt the neck if tied too tightly.
This kind of clothes saves the trouble of tying a scarf, it is beautiful and convenient.
"You are so amazing. This dress will definitely please that foreigner." Ma Li said as she put on her bag.
"You wait here, I'm going to finish my call and then we'll go out for dinner." After saying that, she left without looking back.
Before Chen Yi could say anything, the man slipped away.
She wanted to wait and see what Mario thought. After all, he had not yet decided whether to place an order. If he didn't want it, wouldn't the factory be disappointed?
But now that everyone had left, she was no longer bothered. She just said it, anyway, she could sell it in Chuncheng, in any supply and marketing cooperative or department store.
Judging from her vision, these clothes can’t be said to be selling well, but at least they should be comparable to white shirts, right?
After about half an hour, Chen Yi ate something to fill her stomach.
It's already six o'clock and she is already hungry.
"Chen Yi." The door opened and Ma Li came back excitedly.
"The factory manager said that if this thing can be accomplished, your salary will be raised by one level!"
Chen Yi was a little surprised when she heard this. At that time, the salary was fixed. Although her salary doubled last month, it did not double every month.
The purchasing department is like this, sometimes good, sometimes not. At most, you can earn a basic salary. For ordinary staff like them, it makes 42.5 yuan a month.
Needless to say, Ma Li's basic salary is just over 76 yuan, and she works hard.
If Chen Yi's salary is increased by one level, it will be fifty-six yuan.
This happens every month, not just one month.
"Really? That's great." Chen Yi smiled but wasn't too excited.
After all, it’s not even ten dollars, so it’s okay to give her something else.
Seeing her like this, Ma Li couldn't help but say, "Don't be ungrateful. Several people in our department have worked for two or three years and are paid an ordinary salary. No one has been promoted by a level or even half a level."
"Besides, we don't know what will happen when we go back. It's just a temporary decision now. We can't say whether there will be other benefits in the future."
What she meant was that salary increase was certain, but benefits were uncertain.
Chen Yi nodded, "I know, Sister Li, let's go eat first? I'm starving."
She felt helpless. It was already so late and she was almost going crazy with hunger.
"That's not a big deal, I forgot about it. Now that you mention it, I'm hungry too." Ma Li quickly took her out to eat.
The next morning, the two of them had breakfast and went out.
There was no way, Ma Li couldn't sit still and had to wait first.
Chen Yi glanced at the time. It was just past eight o'clock and there were still more than two hours until the agreed time.
She sat there helplessly and could only wait.
Seeing that she was sweating a little, Ma Li said, "I'm going to buy two bottles of soda. Wait for me."
Chen Yi didn't say anything. It's nice to drink something cool when it's hot. Northeast China is still good. You should wear long sleeves at this time.
The two of them drank soda and chatted, since they were just staying there anyway.
"Chen Yi, did you draw that picture? And the clothes, did you make them after you left for a while?"
Ma Li was very curious and forgot to ask yesterday.
Chen Yi shook her head. "I drew a rough outline of the blueprint and asked a tailor to perfect it. The clothes were also made by someone else. I didn't learn how to make them."
"Someone else made it?" Ma Li was stunned for a moment and said, "Then this dress must have been copied by someone else?"
This is no small matter. What if someone else makes clothes and sells them first? What will they do then?
Chen Yi saw her worry and said, "I have already made an agreement with the master that it will not be leaked. But don't worry, when new styles of clothes come out, people will naturally imitate them. And I will have new ideas in the future, don't worry."
Isn't this the case with the clothing industry? Everyone imitates others.
If you have a new model, I will buy one and make the same one.
However, there are fewer styles of clothes now, and clothes from many factories are similar.
Seeing how confident she was, Ma Li didn't say anything more.
After all, this dress was Chen Yi's idea, so she had no objection.
Time passed quickly, and while the two were chatting, the agreed time was almost up.
This time, Ma Li didn't chat anymore. She just stared at the door, as if she was afraid of missing someone.
There are three more chapters to go, I will write them slowly(_)
