Chapter 811 Xu Wanning's conjecture
: "Because the materials of each fabric are different, the charging standards are also different. You choose the fabric first, and then I will calculate the overall price. You need to pay me a 30% deposit in advance."
The concept of deposit, Zhang Yuling also learned from Xu Wanning.
Although it's not bad to find a tailor shop to customize clothes, you still have to collect a deposit just in case to better bind the buyer and seller.
The 30% was also determined after various calculations, which just covered the fabric and other costs.
Of course, labor and rent are not included.
In this way, even if the clothes are ready and the customer regrets not wanting them, Zhang Yuling will not suffer too serious a loss.
Ren's mother carefully selected among the four fabrics for a long time, and finally settled on the most expensive one.
When quoting the price, Zhang Yuling once again ran into trouble.
According to her previous pricing standards, clothes made from this fabric would cost between eighty and eighty-five yuan, and the net profit would be between forty and forty-five yuan.
Because this kind of fabric is the most expensive to buy, she is worried that the price is too high and customers will not be able to accept it.
But Xu Wanning had just told her that their tailor shop should take a high-end route. Since it is high-end, the price cannot be too low.
Moreover, the cost of her drawing the design drawings must also be included in the calculation.
"The price of one piece of clothing is one hundred and thirty yuan. I'll charge you two hundred and fifty-five yuan for two pieces. You need to pay me a total of seventy-seven yuan as a deposit for the two pieces of clothing."
After quoting the price . From now on, Zhang Yuling still felt a little uneasy, fearing that Ren's mother would object.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually took out eight big unity cards and handed them over: "Eighty yuan, no need to change."
"Okay." Zhang Yuling accepted the money, counted it in front of Ren's mother and Ren Doudou, and confirmed After there was no problem with the amount of money, he locked the money in the drawer, wrote two more receipts, signed both, and handed one of them to Ren's mother.
"This is the receipt. In three to five days, please take the time to come back and take a look at the two style pictures I drew. If you have no objections to the style, I can prepare to make it as soon as possible."
Ren's mother took the receipt and said After a casual glance, she put it away: "Okay, I'll be here on time."
After saying that, she took Ren Doudou's hand and left.
Before leaving, Ren Doudou did not forget to wave to Xu Wanning: "Comrade Xu, when are you going to the housing authority again? Remember to come and play with me."
"Okay." Xu Wanning responded with a smile. .
But as soon as Ren's mother and Ren Doudou left, the smile on Xu Wanning's face instantly faded.
Zhang Yuling whispered in a low voice: "It's so strange, why would someone choose to show off chrysanthemums on their skirt?"
In the distant ancient times, literati and poets called plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum the four gentlemen. Some literati, whether sincerely or not, will state that their favorite flower is chrysanthemum.
But later, as the times changed, the meaning of chrysanthemum changed, and it became the most popular flower variety at funerals.
Therefore, in the inherent concept of Chinese people, chrysanthemum represents unlucky.
Especially white chrysanthemums.
This is what Xu Wanning finds unusual.
What was unusual was not only Ren's mother who said she wanted to show off her chrysanthemums, but also Ren Doudou who had no objection to it.
It seems that both mother and daughter think this is a normal thing.
Xu Wanning already had some thoughts in her mind.
When they went to the housing authority to sell hair dryers, Xu Wanning and Ren Doudou met again and felt that the girl was innocent and sincere, and did not look like a person with bad intentions.
After several contacts, Ren Doudou felt like this to Xu Wanning.
So slowly, Xu Wanning has let go of her doubts about Ren Doudou.
In addition, she was about to face the final exam, and her time every day was very tight, so she didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the Japanese people.
But the unusual behavior of Ren Doudou and his mother just now made Xu Wanning's heart skip a beat again.
This discovery must be reported to the uncle as soon as possible.
Thinking like this, Xu Wanning opened the curtain again and entered the backyard, saying to Chen Ye and Zhang Wenting: "It's getting late, let's go home first. It's cold now, and it's too late to go home. I'm afraid that the second sister-in-law will blow the wind and then go home." Infected with wind and cold."
"Aning is right, Wen Ting doesn't dare to get sick now. Once you get sick, you can't even take medicine, and you have to fight it by yourself."
Zhang Wenting originally wanted to say it's okay, but after hearing this. The two of them immediately set off and followed them back to the army compound.
Fortunately, the entire Xu family gathered at Xu Wanning's parents' home to chat.
Therefore, Xu Wanning went directly to her uncle.
"You mean there is a problem between Ren Doudou and his mother?"
The uncle's brows were knitted together, his tone and expression were solemn.
Xu Wanning nodded: "I feel there should be something wrong. As a Chinese, she may not want it if you give her a handful of fresh chrysanthemums, let alone embroidering the flowers on the clothes she often wears?"
Just based on this To point out that there is a problem between Ren Doudou and his mother is actually a bit reckless.
But by chance, what Ren's mother asked for by name was the chrysanthemum.
Everyone thinks that the national flower of Japan is the cherry blossom, but this is not the case. The people of Japan, especially the nobles, like the chrysanthemum the most.
It may be that when the ancestors of the Japanese people smuggled themselves to the Japanese country from China, the meaning of chrysanthemums still represented purity and purity, so those arty Japanese people all followed the trend and liked chrysanthemums.
Of course, there is another reason. It is an unofficial history that Xu Wanning read later. It tells the story of a prince of the Japanese country who was falsely accused of making a mistake and was exiled to the mountains. Without food, he could only rely on drinking dew from chrysanthemums. Life, I didn’t expect that this drink would last for hundreds of years.
Therefore, chrysanthemum also represents longevity in the inherent concept of Japanese people.
"Uncle, I think this cultural difference is not groundless. If you can, I hope you can investigate Ren Doudou and his mother as much as possible. If the investigation turns out that there is no problem with them, then it is my fault for making such a fuss. If the investigation It shows that there is something wrong with their mother and daughter..."
Then, they can follow this mother and daughter and uproot all those people who have been hiding in China for many years but still firmly believe that they are Japanese.
This matter cannot be delayed.
The uncle felt very heavy.
Because Ren Doudou's father and Ren's mother's lover held a high position in the Chinese government and had great power, and he also behaved like a gentleman in daily life.
If the investigation results are what they suspected...
