Although Su Xuemei and Zhao Lingdang initially priced the watches at 300 yuan, they later selected several better and more exquisite models and sold them at higher prices, with the most expensive one selling for 420 yuan.
Even so, demand still exceeds supply!
Not only their colleagues at the textile factory, but even the leaders privately bought several watches from them, the most expensive of which was bought by their deputy factory director.
Even Song Li came to Ye Weiwei's door to inquire about the watch.
He helped Su Xuemei and the others with their onboarding procedures, and he knew their family situation better than anyone. He knew without a doubt that the watch came from Ye Weiwei.
Moreover, the fact that Ye Weiwei performed exceptionally well on a mission in another city had spread to the higher-ups, making it impossible to keep it a secret.
"Sister-in-law, you can't be biased and hide all the good stuff."
Old Master Song's illness has been cured thanks to Ye Weiwei's skillful treatment, but because he still needs to recuperate, he asks Ye Weiwei to come over every now and then to check his pulse and prescribe some medicine to help him recover.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to examine Old Master Song's pulse, Song Li pestered Ye Weiwei for favors.
He has no other hobbies except collecting watches.
He couldn't take his eyes off the watches on the Huo brothers' wrists, especially the one on the deputy director of the textile factory's wrist.
After learning that the medicine had come from Ye Weiwei, he begged Old Master Song to come to Ye Weiwei's house to have her take his pulse. Otherwise, according to the usual schedule, he would have to wait at least another week.
Ye Weiwei gave him a disgruntled look, said "wait," and went upstairs.
Song Li stared longingly at the stairwell, and when Ye Weiwei came out of the room, her smile was so ingratiating that even Old Master Song couldn't bear to look at her!
Ye Weiwei saw three gift boxes on the table, two of which contained men's watches and one contained women's watches.
Song Li couldn't wait to open it, and when she saw the watch inside, her mouth stretched from ear to ear with joy.
These three watches are clearly high-end products, even more classy than the deputy factory director's. They look great no matter how you look at them.
"Little sister-in-law, I knew you were the best!"
Song Li held a watch with obvious delight, and sweet words flowed from her lips effortlessly.
Grandpa Song coughed and scolded, "Alright, alright, look at you, so useless. When will you learn from your sister-in-law? I've raised you for nothing."
Song Li wasn't angry even after being scolded; she obediently took the three boxes and went to the side.
oops!
All three watches are great, and he wants to collect them all. What should he do?
Or should I just hide it and not give it to my parents?
Grandpa Song chased away his good-for-nothing grandson and looked at Ye Weiwei with a smile: "Weiwei, you've given us all these gifts, but haven't you brought anything for this old man?"
After saying that, without waiting for Ye Weiwei's reply, he pretended to be dejected and said, "Oh dear, it's normal that you can't think of something like this, it's okay if you don't have it. It's just that I don't know what's wrong with me lately, I always feel sleepy, I often can't muster up any energy, and my mind isn't as sharp as usual. It would be great if I had something to refresh my mind."
Ye Weiwei: ……
Okay, now you know what's going on.
This is a roundabout way of asking him for tea.
Helpless, Ye Weiwei had no choice but to go upstairs to the study and get some for Old Master Song, about an ounce or so.
"Old Song, I really don't have any tea leaves left. I secretly stole this from the jar my dad keeps. My dad treasures it very much. This is all I can get for you. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good if he found out if I had more."
"That's good enough! It's good enough to have some!"
Grandpa Song didn't mind at all. He happily took the tea leaves from Ye Weiwei's hand, stuffed them into his breast pocket, and looked up at the time: "I think it's getting late. I still have things to take care of at home, so I won't bother you any longer."
Ye Weiwei: ……
Grandpa Song was overjoyed.
I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain this time.
Old Qin usually wouldn't even take this tea out to serve guests; he treasured it like it was something precious.
He naturally retreated as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, if that old guy comes back and we run into him, I'll definitely give him a piece of my mind!
The old man and the young man from the Song family went home happily.
Ye Weiwei saw the person to the door and ran into Wang Lan, who was visiting with her grandson.
Wang Lan greeted Old Song and, after everyone left, handed Ye Weiwei a cloth bag she was carrying.
“I took a few pairs of shoes with multi-layered soles and made two pairs for your father-in-law and you two. You can wear them casually. The craftsmanship isn’t very good, so please don’t complain.”
Ye Weiwei laughed and said, "Auntie, what are you saying! Everyone in this compound knows that your craftsmanship in making layered soles is top-notch. My father-in-law likes to wear these, saying they are breathable and comfortable. It just so happens that I don't know how to make them, so you've really hit the nail on the head."
When Wang Lan heard Ye Weiwei say that, she felt extremely relieved.
A while ago, Ye Weiwei and her family returned from a business trip and brought back a lot of local specialties for the family, including both adults and children, which made the whole family very happy.
Especially the face cream she gave to her family, the smell was so much better than the ones in the department store. Not only did it smell good, but it also worked well on her face. Her skin was very dry and often peeled, making her face look very rough.
After applying the face cream that Ye Weiwei gave me, I could clearly feel that my face was more moisturized, my skin was not so dry, and it didn't peel anymore.
Her colleagues at work all say she looks much younger lately.
Having received so many gifts, she didn't know how to reciprocate. Then she remembered that Old Qin liked to wear shoes with multi-layered soles, and since she had that skill, she quickly made a few pairs and sent them over, as a token of her goodwill.
After being criticized by Lao Duan that time, she realized her own problem.
Although she couldn't be as generous as Ye Weiwei, she still had to reciprocate with gifts. She should keep an eye on things here and help out whenever she saw someone in need.
She knew that the reason Ye Weiwei gave so many things to her family was because she had been bringing her younger siblings here to help take care of the children lately, and the family appreciated it.
After selling all forty watches they had, Su Xuemei and Zhao Lingdang made a net profit of about four thousand yuan, after deducting the cost they gave to Ye Weiwei.
The two families split the money equally, and with the money they had saved over the past few months, they not only paid back the cost of the watch, but also the money Ye Weiwei had spent to help them find a job.
Although my savings were completely depleted after paying off the debts, the feeling of being debt-free, having a job, and having hope for the future couldn't be better.
