"Come on, tell me something, if there's money to be made, I can't be left out!"
Song Shiwei laughed unhappily and said, "How could I miss you last time? This time, even if I wanted to, I couldn't leave you out! I was just about to call you! I wanted you to ask the sisters-in-law in the family compound if anyone is willing to earn some money. I'm going to make a batch of mops. All you have to do is tie the cloth to the mop handle tightly. The labor fee for tying one mop is three cents. As long as you find the people, they will give you a commission of one cent for each mop they make!"
Sun Meimei rubbed her hands together happily. "That's wonderful! Weiwei, you're so considerate! So, how much can we do? I'll see how many people we can find!"
Song Shiwei thought about it and realized that as Xiao Cui said, there were quite a few scraps of cloth.
"At least we can make one or two thousand!"
Sun Meimei roughly estimated in her mind that if she could get one cent for each one, wouldn't that mean she could get more than ten yuan for a thousand?
As long as she finds enough people, she can probably finish the work in one or two days. She can earn more than ten yuan in one or two days, which is equivalent to a month's salary for a temporary worker in the city!
Wow, how come Weiwei is so good at making money!
Since she started working with her, she felt that she was no longer hesitant when buying things! She could buy meat whenever she wanted. Lao Zheng would send part of his salary back to his parents, but she could spend the rest of her earnings on herself and her children.
I bought meat every two days and also bought new clothes and shoes for the children.
Even Jian Qiu and Wang Chunxiang were extremely envious.
Jian Qiu is a soft-hearted person and doesn't want to contact so many people. Wang Chunxiang wanted to, but who made her mention it first?
There can only be one person in charge of the family compound. If there are too many people, it will become chaotic.
The two nearby villages also belong to Sun Meimei. If Wang Chunxiang wants to do something, she can only develop in villages farther away.
That's too far away, and she was hesitant, but in her heart she was very envious of Sun Meimei.
Why didn't she think of it sooner?
When she heard Sun Meimei say that Song Shiwei wanted to make a mop, she immediately agreed.
"I'll do it. I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway, so I might as well make some extra money!"
One costs three cents, and I can make dozens a day, which is enough money for food!
Jian Qiu also agreed: "I'll do it too!"
She mainly doesn't like interacting with people, and this job doesn't require her to talk or run around, so she is naturally happy about it!
In the afternoon, Sun Zeyan had someone deliver those scraps of cloth to Song Shiwei, a whole cart full of them!
He really didn't expect that Xiao Cui would mention to him today that she wanted to buy the pile of scraps of cloth in the warehouse. When he asked, he found out that it was indeed Song Shiwei's idea.
She actually thought of using these scraps of cloth to make a mop. He really admired her brain, which was so quick!
In their factory, these scraps of cloth are considered waste. Even if they are sold to others, they are sold by the truckload, and each truckload only sells for a few dollars. It would be better for him to use these few dollars to repay the favor he owed Song Shiwei!
She helped their factory solve such a big problem, what are these scraps of cloth worth?
So, someone delivered it that afternoon.
Why doesn't he make mops from these scraps of cloth in his own factory?
Their factory is a garment factory that produces clothes, not mops. Besides, to make a mop, you need a mop handle, right?
Where can he get it? He can't go to the carpentry factory to buy wood just to make a mop, and even if he did, who would he sell it to?
Their factory's sales still depend on Song Shiwei, so he would never steal her business!
Instead, when he heard that it was her who wanted it, he immediately arranged for someone to deliver it to her.
When these scraps of cloth were delivered, the people in the village that Xiao Cui had contacted also brought some peeled wooden sticks.
She asked Sun Meimei to buy a few reels of thin iron wire, and everyone started to work.
Even Lian Fengxia came.
When she saw Song Shiwei, she greeted her with a smile. Damao is now over one and a half years old and can walk very steadily.
When he saw Song Shiwei, he would grin and call her "Auntie!"
Song Shiwei really liked him, so she quickly grabbed a handful of candy from the house and handed it to him.
The little guy was so happy.
Everyone worked in the large open space in front of the family compound, and they didn't even sit on stools.
The scraps of cloth that Sun Zeyan brought were all wrapped with large pieces of patchwork cloth.
After untying the clothes and spreading them on the ground, everyone sat on the ground and started working.
Song Shiwei herself didn't do it. She was pregnant and had to hunch her belly when sitting on the ground.
I simply moved a stool and sat aside, chatting with everyone while playing with Damao and the other kids.
Sun Meimei's execution ability is still very good. She ran around almost the entire family compound in the morning. Anyone who had nothing to do at home came to help Song Shiwei mop!
This mop is the easiest to tie. Roll out the cloth strips, wrap them around one end of the wooden stick and tie them tightly with wire. Then turn the cloth strips over and tie them again. Finally, turn it over and wrap them around the wire a few more times.
Some people are nimble and can make several in a short time!
Everyone worked together, talked and laughed, and time passed very quickly.
Song Shiwei saw Zhou Xiaomei not far away from him, looking at them hesitantly.
I think she also wanted to make money by making mops, but unfortunately Sun Meimei didn't inform anyone else but her.
Because everyone knew what kind of person she was, no one wanted to pay any attention to her after she had approached Song Shiwei several times.
After a while, Song Shiwei saw Zhou Xiaomei hesitate again and again, but finally came over.
Sun Meimei also saw it and hurried to stop her.
"Hey, Zhou Xiaomei, don't come over here. Can't you see we're busy?"
Wang Chunxiang also rolled her eyes at her: "Zhou Xiaomei, if I were you, I would definitely not be able to stand here!"
Several sisters-in-law who were working nearby also echoed this.
"Zhou Xiaomei, stop getting in the way and go home!"
"That's right, this job is very difficult. You should know how you treat others. How can you have the nerve to approach them?"
Now that they are taking Song Shiwei's money, they naturally want to distance themselves from Zhou Xiaomei.
You can make money by following Song Shiwei, but what are the benefits of following her Zhou Xiaomei?
Putting this aside, just based on what Zhou Xiaomei has done several times, she is not likable!
No one in the entire family compound wanted to pay attention to her.
Zhou Xiaomei knew that she was boring, so she said awkwardly: "I, I just came here to look for Xiaodouzi, but I don't know where he has been! I didn't want to work at all, I have a lot of things to do..."
Before she could finish her words, she heard Xiaodouzi's voice from the intersection ahead: "Mom! Look what we found on the beach!"
Everyone looked over there and saw Xiaodouzi and a few other boys holding something in their hands and running towards them with smiles on their faces!
When he ran over, everyone saw that he was holding a thing in his hand that was still wriggling and looked like a worm that was dozens of times larger.
It will also wriggle back and forth.
Song Shiwei suddenly opened his eyes wide!
