Chapter 1233: Wage increases

are not limited to women’s clothing, the best-selling items should be children’s clothing.

In this era, children's clothing styles are far less selective than women's clothing. There are just a few styles over and over again, and they all look the same and have no characteristics at all.

The children's clothing made by Mother Lin is not particularly conspicuous at first glance, but the differences in small details naturally lead to different effects.

Beijing is different from other places. There are many rich people here, and many people pursue quality of life. They are willing to spend money on themselves, and they are even more willing to spend money on their children.

Because children's clothing uses less fabric, the price is much cheaper than women's clothing.

A girl's dress only costs about ten yuan a piece, and the most expensive one is no more than twenty yuan. If it is a suit of top and pants or top and skirt, the price is between twenty and twenty-two yuan.

Boys basically wear tops and shorts, and the price is around 20.

Girls' clothes will be given a head flower of the same color according to the color pattern of the fabric.

Naturally, Mrs. Lin made the head flowers with scraps of fabric. She had been selling head flowers for a while before. With the current market situation in Beijing, they would still cost one yuan each, but the cost price was no more than 20 cents. , it doesn’t hurt at all to give it away.

If the boy has no hair and does not give a headband, then he will give a handkerchief. It is also a scrap of fabric and only needs to be hemmed. There is basically no cost for bringing the handkerchief.

But it can make the children happy, and the parents will naturally be happy if they pay for it.

As for men's clothing, Xu Wanning specializes in hand-tailored suits.

Nowadays, Chinese tunic suits are still popular in China. They look upright, but they look too serious.

Some young people who have been exposed to foreign cultures have begun to wear suits, but foreigners are generally taller and burlier than Chinese people. Using foreign methods of making suits, when worn on Chinese people, they look loose and lethargic.

The custom-made suits made by Chen Jianbin are tailor-made according to the individual's body shape. They are a bit expensive, but the feeling of wearing them is completely different.

Because of the hot weather, the clothing store had been open for a long time without even selling a single suit.

But after the reputation of the ready-made clothing store became popular, more and more people came to customize suits. Chen Jianbin received more than 20 orders and was busy every day.

In addition, there are few styles of men's clothing, only short-sleeved tops with stand-up collars, casual suit pants and jeans. If you have to talk about style, you can only choose the color of the fabric, but most of them are black, dark gray, Navy blue are some common colors.

Gay men are relatively reserved and don't have that much pursuit of clothing. Basically, the female relatives at home help customize their clothes.

After sending her three classmates to the clothing store, Xu Wanning hadn't gone to the clothing store for a while, and she didn't know that the clothing store's business was so good.

"Those three classmates of yours were a big help. If they hadn't helped me, Lao Chen and Xiao Chen would have been too busy!"

The suits and cheongsams were made by the Chen family themselves, and the three classmates only They dare not look at it but don't dare to do it, for fear of damaging the fabric, but they are already very skilled at pressing clothes.

"Aning, I think we can give them a proper salary increase. They work hard every day."

They have food and accommodation in a clothing store, so the three of them don't have time to commute. Even after work hours, they will still work overtime. Make clothes.

If Mother Lin hadn't repeatedly told Ao that the lights were too dim and Ao's eyes were broken, the three of them could have worked for more than ten hours a day.

Mother Lin saw the vigor and enthusiasm of young people in them, and also knew that the family background of the three of them was not good, so she used her summer vacation to earn some money, thinking that she could help them.

Even if each person's salary is increased by twenty or thirty yuan, this amount of money is nothing to her, but it can make the lives of the three children better.

Xu Wanning rejected Mother Lin's proposal. "The salary is agreed upon from the beginning and cannot be changed at will, otherwise it will be inconvenient to manage in the future

. Although they work hard, they also get commissions on the finished garments. This commission alone is a lot of money."

Personal commissions must not be as high as Mr. Chen's. Xu Wanning set a commission of two yuan for a skirt, and a commission of three yuan for a top and bottom suit.

The number of orders for dresses is not as large as that of cheongsams, but there are still hundreds of pieces. Calculated based on one hundred dresses, the commission will be two hundred yuan.

And this is the order volume and commission during this period, not one month.

It is only late July now, and although the hottest period has passed, summer is not over yet. Although the order volume of ready-made clothing stores will decrease, there are still many orders every month, and their commissions are not small.

In Beijing in 1982, the per capita salary of ordinary workers was only fifty or sixty yuan. Three college students could earn four to five hundred yuan during more than forty days of summer vacation, which was already a considerable amount of money. .

Xu Wanning knew that Mother Lin felt pity for the three of them and wanted to help them.

But the basic salary is only that much. Even if the salary is increased, it will only increase by twenty or thirty yuan at most. Compared with the commission, it is really not much, so it is better not to increase it.

"However, there will be no salary increase. Before they leave at the end of the summer vacation, I will give everyone a red envelope as a reward for their hard work during this period."

Xu Wanning has not yet decided how much money will be in the red envelope, but it will definitely be more than two thousand dollars. More than ten dollars.

After hearing what Xu Wanning said, Mother Lin couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Aning has always been successful. If she just proposed a salary increase, wouldn't it put Aning in trouble?

But as a family, if we talk about it, there will be no conflicts.

"Mom, I know that you are happiest when the business of the clothing store is improving, but you must also balance work and rest, and you must not be tired, otherwise we will feel sorry for you."

Mother Lin is still in good health Tough.

She is only about fifty years old now. Because she eats well and has fewer worries, coupled with Xu Wanning's subtle influence, she is also used to taking care of herself, so she looks a few years younger than her peers.

But after all, as we age, our body functions are different from those of young people, and we may not be able to withstand long-term and high-intensity work.

Xu Wanning opened a ready-made clothing store for Lin's mother, not to make a lot of money, but mainly to find something for Lin's mother to do, so that she would not be tired from thinking all day long.

But it would not be good if Mother Lin's health was affected by the clothing store business.

Hearing Xu Wanning's concern, Mother Lin smiled and said, "I also want to tell you about this today."

Xu Wanjing listened quietly to Mother Lin's words.
