Chapter 241 Mingzhu is a profiteer
Mingzhu chuckled: "Who in the world doesn't have worries? You know it makes you upset, so don't let it affect your emotions. Just put it aside. Maybe when you wake up the next day, you will find that it doesn't matter."
Wang Cuiju couldn't help but give Mingzhu a thumbs up: "If I had known you a few years earlier, I would have had fewer quarrels with Zhao Shengping."
"It's not too late now," Mingzhu patted her shoulder with a smile: "Okay, sister-in-law, let's go. There is one less person to work this afternoon. We have a difficult task."
The group came to Mingzhu's house together.
Because the environment must be kept clean when packaging the cream, Su Guimei was afraid that the two children would be difficult to control, so she simply took them to play in the yard.
Mingzhu and the other two went into the house to package.
Song Ke was in charge of filling the jars, Wang Cuiju was in charge of smoothing them, and Mingzhu was in charge of sealing the jars with tin paper.
When they were almost done, Wang Cuiju suddenly remembered and asked, "Zhuzhu, we can sell this cream tomorrow, right? How much is it priced?"
Mingzhu said calmly, "Three dollars and fifty cents a jar."
Wang Cuiju and Song Ke looked at Mingzhu in surprise at the same time.
"Is it so expensive? The vanishing cream outside is only fifty or sixty cents a bag."
"The ones out there are just ordinary vanishing creams that don't require any medicinal ingredients, but ours is a medicinal cream that focuses on therapeutic effects."
Mingzhu picked at her fingers and calculated the costs for the two of them: "The various good medicinal ingredients, beeswax, jars, and tin paper in here all cost money. Even if we hire someone to do the packaging for this afternoon, the labor costs will also be charged. With this calculation, the cost will be at least two dollars and fifty cents. For
every jar you sell, you get a commission of fifty cents. I make this stuff by myself, so I have to keep fifty cents from each jar. What's more, with the amount we give, if applied thinly, one jar can be used for a month. On average, it's only a little over ten cents a day. For a woman who loves beauty, it's really nothing."
Wang Cuiju thought that she also thought the medicated plasters were expensive before, but didn't they still sell well?
Sometimes, she really underestimated women's love of beauty.
Moreover... earning 50 cents for each can, this is really tempting.
She nodded immediately: "Zhuzhu, your ideas have never been wrong, I will listen to you."
Mingzhu smiled. In fact, after careful calculation, minus the beeswax, box, tin foil, and their sales expenses, she earned 2.5 yuan for each can of tearful blood.
She felt that she seemed to have more and more potential to be a profiteer!
But it didn't matter. Her goal at the moment was to make money.
Once the policy was opened, there were so many places to spend money, such as building factories, buying houses, and buying advanced medical equipment abroad. Now it was not too much to make any money.
The three of them spent an afternoon and packed 120 cans.
Seeing that it was getting evening, Wang Cuiju thought of the appointment she had made with Zhao Shengping to go back to her parents' home for dinner in the evening, but she was a little worried when she saw the two children of the Qin family.
Su Guimei took the initiative to say, "Don't worry about it. Hurry up and find your old Zhao to go back to her parents' home. Just leave the child to me. When Qin Ling comes back later, I will return the child to him before leaving."
"Guimei, I have caused you trouble because of what Zhao Shengping took over. I am really sorry for you."
"Oh, let's not talk about this. Go quickly."
Wang Cuiju left in a hurry. After Song Ke asked Mingzhu about the time, he went home to cook.
Mingzhu and Su Guimei were the only ones left in the yard.
Mingzhu picked some spinach from the small vegetable garden where she built a vegetable shed, and asked as she picked: "Sister, you are back to the family yard today, you don't feel awkward, do you?"
Su Guimei shook her head: "No, I thought I would feel uncomfortable seeing that yard, but you say it's strange, today I saw the mess inside, and thought that this family has been living a worse and worse life since I left, I feel particularly happy."
Mingzhu chuckled: "Do you feel a sense of satisfaction that they have been punished for their evil deeds?"
Su Guimei also smiled and nodded: "Really."
The two were chatting, Jiang Duo came back, and was a little surprised to see Su Guimei with the two children of the Qin family.
Mingzhu greeted him and told him about Qin Ling's visit to Wang Cuiju in the afternoon.
Su Guimei was also very perceptive. She didn't intend to disturb the young couple, so she asked, "Xiao Jiang, has Qin Ling come back?"
"When I came out, I didn't notice if there was anyone in his office."
Su Guimei said, "Then I'll go and see. You two should cook quickly. I'll send the child back to him and go back to my aunt's place first."
"Sister, I'll go with you."
"No, it's just a small matter of sending a child. I can do it myself. You and Xiao Jiang go ahead."
She held Qin Aijun and led Qin Aiguo out the door and went to the front row.
When she arrived at the Qin family's door, she saw that the door was still locked. She was about to take people to the family compound to wait when she saw Qin Ling running back in a hurry with a bag.
He walked forward breathlessly, took Qin Aijun from Su Guimei and thanked her: "Sister-in-law...you and Liu Caiqing are divorced. It's not appropriate for me to call you sister-in-law now, so what should I call you?"
"I'm one year older than you and Chen Fengjiao. You can call me Sister Guimei."
Qin Ling nodded: "Okay, Sister Guimei, thank you so much today."
As he spoke, he took out two ten-yuan bills from his pocket and handed them to Su Guimei: "The money in my family is all with Chen Fengjiao. I can only give you this for now. After I get my salary this month, I will..."
"No need," Su Guimei waved her hands: "With Zhuzhu's help, I'm living a comfortable life now. You can keep the money to buy things for the children."
"This is just a little gift from me. You can keep it."
Su Guimei took a step back and refused: "Really, it's not necessary."
The two were pushing and refusing when a sarcastic laugh suddenly came from behind: "Hey, isn't this Su Guimei, the one from the Liu family who was driven away and can't lay eggs? You have a sharp nose. Chen Fengjiao just gave up Qin Ling yesterday, and you come to pick up the bargain today."
Su Guimei turned around and saw Huang Yu walking towards her with a bag in her hand.
Before she could say anything, Qin Ling said, "Huang Yu, I asked Sister Cui Ju to help me take care of the child, and Sister Cui Ju asked Sister Gui Mei to come and help take care of the child temporarily. Be careful with your words!"
Huang Yu curled her lips and looked at Qin Ling: "Who would believe it? Your wife just had an accident yesterday, and she came to help you take care of the children today? Bah, she clearly has a purpose! Su Guimei, you have the best relationship with Mingzhu, is it that little bitch Mingzhu who taught you to pry the wall, morally corrupt?"
Su Guimei gritted her teeth, "Huang Yu! You said I can, but you are not allowed to humiliate Mingzhu!"
"What's wrong with me humiliating her? She is a bitch!"
Su Guimei was about to step forward to argue with her, when she heard a familiar sneer coming from the alley at the corner: "Hey, how can I be more cheap than you? You are the best in the world, the most invincible in the universe!"
