Two days later, Tang Yiyi rode his bicycle to the black market early in the afternoon after class.
When the proprietress saw her coming, she quickly pulled her with a flattering smile on her face. This familiar scene reminded Tang Yiyi of the proprietress in Ancheng.
"Sister, you came and the dress you made was sold the next day. Several people looked at it and said it was too expensive, so they hesitated. Unexpectedly, someone who came later bought it directly. They wanted it but couldn't, so they kept asking me to buy it back.
I'm anxious too, I've been waiting for you."
Tang Yiyi smiled and said, "Then will you do it? Should I give you the drawings or should I make them myself? I have other things to do and don't have time to do it. If it's one or two, I can do it, but if it's more than that, I can't do it."
She had to go to school and take care of her children, so she really didn't have time to make clothes. Besides, she didn't want to earn this little money herself, so she wanted to sell the blueprints from the beginning.
It depends on whether she does it or not.
"But I still don't know how to make clothes. Your clothes are beautiful, but it's useless to give me the drawings. How about you take some time to make them?" The boss lady was also in a dilemma.
I am good at talking, but I am not very clumsy with my hands.
Tang Yiyi had no choice, she didn't want to make things difficult for herself.
"No, there's nothing I can do. I can't make it. If you want the blueprints, I'll sell them to you, but I don't make clothes."
"How can we do this? These clothes sell so well, how can we not make so much money?" The proprietress has tasted the sweetness. The price of these clothes is much higher than the cloth.
And many people have seen it and asked about booking it themselves.
With such a good business, she really wants to grab Tang Yiyi, the God of Wealth.
With a flattering smile, he said, "Sister, please spare some time to do it. If you really can't do it, you can do less in a month. Didn't you make two pieces in a short time in the past two days?"
Seeing that the boss lady was so insistent, Tang Yiyi was not unwilling to do it. She said: "It's okay to do it, but you have to make it into a custom order, one piece a day, which is seven pieces a week. I won't do more than that. I can make a few samples for you, you hang them up, and whoever makes them will do it.
I won't do more than that. Do you think this is okay? If it is, then do it. If not, forget it."
Tang Yiyi didn't really want to do it, but the boss's wife did.
"Do it, do it, it can be more expensive if it's made in advance. Do it, I'll do it."
"Okay, then let's talk about the wages. How much do you sell a piece of clothing for?" Tang Yiyi roughly knew the price, so it depended on how the boss lady sold it.
"A skirt is ten dollars, and a coat is six dollars," said the proprietress.
Tang Yiyi didn't know whether it was true or false, but it didn't affect her asking price.
"To make clothes, you provide the fabric, I provide the craftsmanship and the design. We'll split the price you sell it for in half. Is that okay with you?"
Split in half? The proprietress thought for a moment, wouldn’t that mean she would have to get five dollars for each skirt? How would she make any money then?
A skirt requires seven feet of fabric, which costs nearly three dollars.
She's not worth it.
While she was calculating, Tang Yiyi was also calculating that she must be making more money than she was selling fabrics, and she must not have told him the truth about the price.
She waited in silence for the proprietress to speak.
The lady boss hesitated for a while, then finally spoke: "Sister, can you give me a little less? I won't make any money this way, so I can earn some. How about giving you four dollars?"
She was still a little nervous, fearing that Tang Yiyi would disagree, be unhappy, and then refuse to do it.
"No, let's split it fifty-fifty. I don't have the time anyway, and I don't have to do this. And remember to give me the money for those two clothes later." Tang Yiyi refused to give in, mainly because she didn't really want to do it.
I don’t make much money in the first place, and I’m wasting my time on it. I might as well use that time to sell chicken feet.
Seeing that Tang Yiyi was unwilling, the proprietress agreed: "Okay, okay, let's split it in half." She thought to herself that she could just increase the price later.
The clothes are so beautiful, it’s okay to sell them at a higher price.
"Okay, then it's a deal. You give me the fabric and I'll go back and make samples. If someone wants to order something, they can choose the sample. You measure the size. When I come to pick it up, you can divide the fabric and the size into portions, and I'll go back and make it directly.
I come every Saturday, and you can only do six pieces a week. If you do more than that, I won’t do it.”
The proprietress nodded in agreement and asked her what kind of fabric she wanted.
Tang Yiyi selected the fabric, collected the money and left.
The boss lady's heart was bleeding, but there was nothing she could do. She could still make money this way. She thought about it at the stall and decided to calculate the money for the fabric and the money for the custom-made clothes separately.
This way you can earn more.
Tang Yiyi didn't know what the boss lady was thinking, but she didn't care. As long as she could make money, it was fine. Tuesday or Wednesday a week, a few dozen dollars a month, which was pretty good.
When I got home, I saw that it was almost time, so I went to the nursery to pick up the two little ones. I happened to meet Shen Huilan who was also there to pick up the two little ones.
"Mom, you didn't go to work today?"
Shen Huilan saw Tang Yiyi and smiled: "No, I'm taking a day off today. I thought you guys were in school and didn't have time, so I came to pick up the kids."
"I came here because school got out early this afternoon. Is Dad taking a break?"
"No, but I'll be back early tonight. Let's have dinner at home. Your sister-in-law and your brother are both home tonight. I've bought some groceries, and we'll have dinner together tonight."
Tang Yiyi nodded: "Okay."
After picking up the child, I went back to Shen Huilan's home.
According to the time, Xu Yan should be back, so Tang Yiyi went home and called Xu Yan to go to Shen Huilan's house for dinner.
At the dinner table.
Xue Wanning was eating well, but then she started retching for a while, and her face turned red.
