Chapter 47 I used all my salary to buy a jade bracelet



Zheng Baozhu said that she wanted to settle the wages of Ding Peizhi and Li Na.

The two of them just wanted to help and didn't expect to get much money.

When Zheng Baozhu gave them 69 yuan each, they were both surprised.

Li Na said, "We've only been working for less than a month, why are you paying us so much?"

Zheng Baozhu said: "I pay you based on your production. You worked 23 days last month and each of you cooked 100 kilograms of seafood every day. I paid you 0.3 cents per kilogram."

Ding Peizhi said: "Seafood is only 5 cents a pound, you gave us 3 cents, that's too much."

"This is from your labor office."

Feng Ying and Lu Fang initially thought that they could only earn some pocket money by working for Zheng Baozhu, but when they saw that Li Na and the others were earning so much, they realized that they could actually earn 90 yuan a month.

Feng Ying and Lu Fang were a little bit unbelieving and asked how much their salaries were.

Zheng Baozhu said: "The unit price is the same, calculated based on the output you produce. The more you work, the more you earn. Under normal circumstances, each person can produce 100 kilograms of seafood per day."

The two looked at each other, their eyes unable to hide their joy.

Zhao Li regretted the whole day at home, wondering why she spoke so quickly.

Otherwise, since we are both military wives, she might be able to work in Zheng Baozhu's house.

Ding Peizhi and Li Na are always in high spirits when they come home from get off work every day. It is easy to imagine that they can definitely make money.

The military wives all followed Zheng Baozhu to the beach, and Zhao Li followed them.

I saw Zheng Baozhu buying seafood from fishermen, processing it at the beach, and bringing it back.

With so much seafood, it must be able to sell for a lot of money.

Zhao Li smiled shamelessly and came up to them: "What are you doing?"

Zheng Baozhu said: "Buying seafood, you have seen it all."

"I mean, why do you buy so much seafood? Can you sell it all?"

Ever since Li Na and Ding Peizhi started working at Zheng Baozhu's house, she has been keeping an eye on Zheng Baozhu.

They buy hundreds of kilograms of seafood on the beach every day. Zheng Baozhu takes a few cardboard boxes out of the island every day and comes back soon.

She followed Zheng Baozhu several times, but lost her every time. She didn't know to whom Zheng Baozhu gave the cardboard box.

Li Na sold seafood for a while, but the competition was too fierce, so she quit. However, Zheng Baozhu was able to sell the seafood.

Of course you can make money if you can sell it. These people will definitely make money by following Zheng Baozhu. If others can do it, why can't she?

Zhao Li thought that the two of them mixed the prepared seafood with that made by Zheng Baozhu, and then Zheng Baozhu sold them all.

Catching up with Zheng Baozhu, he said, "I'll join you in making seafood. I can give you a small commission after selling it."

Everyone felt that Zhao Li was very shameless regarding her request.

Zheng Baozhu said: "Everyone works for me, and I pay them wages."

"How much do you pay them?"

"For every pound of seafood produced, the wages are 3 cents."

"You are too ruthless. The seafood you cook is sold at 40 cents per pound, and you only give 3 cents. Even if the price is a little lower, 20 cents per pound, you still make more than this."

"You've sold it yourself, don't you have any idea how much money you can make?"

"It's because I didn't cook well. The seafood you cook tastes good, so of course you can earn money."

Li Na said: "There are many people selling seafood in the market now, and the price has dropped a lot. I can't sell all the seafood I made that day, otherwise I would definitely continue to sell it."

"Zheng Baozhu is not able to be sold. Being able to sell it means making money."

Zheng Baozhu said: "Why should I do a business that doesn't make money? If you think you can make money selling seafood, just do it yourself."

If she could make money working alone, Zhao Li would not have looked for Zheng Baozhu.

Zhao Li wanted to follow Zheng Baozhu to sell seafood, but thought the salary was too low, so she turned her attention to Li Na, Ding Peizhi and others.

"Zheng Baozhu only pays you so little, and you're letting her exploit you like this?"

Ding Peizhi said: "I am willing. I can make 3 yuan by cooking 100 kilograms of seafood a day at a unit price of 3 yuan."

“3 dollars!”

Zhao Li quickly did the math in her mind and it came to 90 yuan a month, which was 10 yuan more than her husband's salary.

Don't worry, as long as you complete the designated work every day, you can get a fixed salary.

Although she had offended Zheng Baozhu, Zhao Li could swallow her pride for the sake of money. She took the net bag from Zheng Baozhu and said, "You are so delicate, how can you do such heavy work?"

Zheng Baozhu knew her intention, so she said, "I sell seafood for small profits but quick turnover. After deducting the cost of raw materials, packaging, and transportation, my current income is only enough to pay the salaries of the five of us. If you want to help me, I thank you, but I have to make it clear that I don't have the money to pay you."

Zhao Li was stunned for a moment. What’s the point of working without salary?

But this time, she learned her lesson.

We can't offend Zheng Baozhu. She's such a good cook, who knows if she can make something delicious and valuable in the future.

But now I have no money, so I must not work for nothing.

Putting down the net bag, Zhao Li smiled and said, "I still have some clothes to wash at home. You guys go do your work. I'll go back first."

Song Zhiting also received his salary today. Before he came back to give the money to Zheng Baozhu, Captain Zhao asked him to go out with him.

After finishing their work, the two were driving back when they saw that the road ahead was blocked.

Song Zhiting got out of the car to check and found an old man kneeling on the side of the road with a little boy lying on the ground next to him, covered with a tattered cotton jacket.

The road was blocked because there were too many people watching.

The reason why everyone was watching was that the old man took out a jade bracelet and wanted to sell it for 100 yuan to pay for his grandson's medical treatment.
