Chapter 889 Making Cotton Jackets

Lin An said: "Now that the back mountain has been closed, everyone uses firewood from their homes for the winter. The more firewood they give us, the less they can use at home, so the price is two cents." It's true that

the firewood is not valuable, but it also depends on the season.

It is true that if he pays a cent for a bundle of firewood, there will be many people willing to sell it,

but in this case, Lin An will not be able to get over it first.

Because winter is difficult for everyone, if you want to be more comfortable, you have to make the firewood rack more prosperous.

If everyone sells firewood to them, there will be less firewood for their own use, so he will charge a higher price so that everyone can enjoy it. I can earn more money to buy some daily necessities. A bundle of firewood only costs one

yuan, and ten yuan can buy a lot of firewood for several days.

Although he is rich and powerful, making money is easier than that of his fellow villagers. He cannot give him what he shouldn’t, and he will definitely not be taken advantage of, but he must not give him less than he deserves

. I'll move to your house and you can just give me the money on the spot

. "Okay. But I have one request. You can't cut corners. Everyone knows how much a bundle of firewood is. If someone wants to make more money, they will change the amount of firewood." It’s reduced, then I don’t want

it. “Don’t worry about this. If this happens, don’t talk about you. I don’t even agree

. After telling Lin An, the team leader used the loudspeaker to notify the shoe news.

"The Lin family is indeed rich, and they actually spent money to buy firewood!"

"It's understandable, after all, burning the kang really consumes too much firewood. I won't go into details, I'll go see how much firewood my family can evenly produce.

Two cents is it. It wasn't much, but it was enough to buy some small things.

So, Lin An and the other three went and came back empty-handed.

After returning home, facing Xu Wanning's confused eyes, Lin An explained: "I went directly to the store. Captain, the captain used the loudspeaker to notify the villagers that the firewood sellers will be delivered directly to our homes later.

"This is good, it can save a lot of trouble.

After waiting for a while, all the firewood sellers came."

The rest of the Xu family had never seen this battle before and wanted to go see it, but the clothes they wore were not enough to withstand the severe cold in the Black Province. Even if they went out for a second, their faces would be frozen to death, so they could only sit in the room. He warmed himself by the fire and listened to the noise outside.

Xu Wanning originally wanted to go out, but as soon as she reached the door, she was stopped by Xu's mother,

"It's so cold outside and you're getting firewood. If you go out, you might bump into someone." What should you do? Just sit in the room obediently.

"Well, Anzi is such a big man, can't he even solve this kind of thing?"

Xu Wanning had no choice but to stay in the main room obediently.

In the yard, every time Lin An collected firewood from a family, he would give the money to them on the spot.

Basically, they are sold in bundles of five or five, which makes it easy to calculate accounts.

In the end, the room where the Lin family stacked firewood could no longer fit.

After buying firewood, Lin Quan found Aunt Cheng again.

"Aunt Cheng, my sister-in-law's family is here. There are more than ten people here. They are all from Beijing and cannot adapt to the cold in our black province, so my sister-in-law wants to make a cotton-padded jacket for each of them. I will use the fabric and cotton. My sister-in-law took it and paid the corresponding craft fee for making a cotton-padded jacket.

"Aunt Cheng, you have the best relationship with my mother, and your skills in making cotton-padded jackets are also good, so I will approach you first about this matter, and then you can help me." We asked a few aunts to make it together. We were in a hurry.

Aunt Cheng said hurriedly: "This is no problem. Let me calculate. If I only have a cotton-padded jacket, I can make four or five pieces a day. But if you include cotton trousers, I can make up to I can make three sets. How many people are there in your sister-in-law's family?"

Lin Quan thought silently.

The eldest aunt, the second aunt, the aunt, the elder sister-in-law, the third sister-in-law, the fourth sister-in-law, the fifth sister-in-law, younger brothers and sisters, and cousins, there are nine sets of women's models in total.

The eldest uncle, the second uncle, the uncle, the eldest brother, the third brother, the fourth brother, the fifth brother, the younger brother, and the cousins, there are ten men's sets in total.

There are also two little guys, Shi An and Shi Yi.

Shi'an Shiyi had already put on warm, thick cotton clothes that Song Han and Chu Lin had worn before.

But after all, you have to make a new body, right?

My sister-in-law said, cotton and cloth are enough.

"It's easy for the two children to make it in half a day's work. But for the adults, there are nineteen sets in total. I guess it will take a few more people to make it. After all, the sooner you make it, the sooner you can wear it.

" Right, right, That's the truth. Aunt Cheng, how many people are suitable for you? "

If you include me, let's find five more people. On average, each person will make three sets. I will make one more set, together with the two children. What do you think?" "

No problem

." Aunt Cheng said with some embarrassment: "Quanquan, how much can your sister-in-law give me to make a set of clothes?"

Regarding the price, Lin Quan had discussed it with Mother Lin before.

"The men's model is larger and the women's model is smaller, so I will pay 50 cents more for the men's model, two and a half yuan per set, and two yuan for the women's model. One piece for the two children, what do you think?" "

This price is a price that can satisfy both parties.

In Beijing, making a piece of clothing, not counting the fabric, but just the craftsmanship, costs four or five yuan at the cheapest price, and it is still the simplest style.

It takes a lot of work to make such thick cotton clothes, especially if there is no sewing machine, and everything has to be sewn by hand.

So for the price of two yuan, it’s not expensive at all.

But for Xu Wanning and Lin Quan, the inexpensive price was enough to make the villagers cheer.

If you make three sets of clothes, you can earn as little as six yuan and as much as seven and a half yuan!

She could make two more sets for children and earn two more dollars.

For more than ten yuan, you can really live a good year.

"Tsuenquan, don't worry, I promise to find someone with good character and quick hands and feet to make clothes for you

. "Aunt Cheng, our price is not low, but you have to do it well. If it's not done well, not only will you not be paid, but you will also be charged. I need to find someone to collect the loss of fabric and cotton.

"Don't worry, my aunt promises you that this will never happen

. "Okay, then I'll go find someone first.

Lin Quan went back to the house and told Xu Wanning about asking Aunt Cheng to make clothes.

Xu's mother asked incomprehensively: "When we were building a house before, we only paid 50 cents a day for manual labor. After working for seven or eight days, we could only earn a few yuan. Why do we only need two yuan to make clothes?" Money? "

Mother Xu definitely doesn't care about the money.

She just didn't understand what the reason for giving money was, and how could it be so different?

Lin Quan explained: "Auntie, building a house is a manual job. Basically anyone with the strength can do it, but making cotton-padded jackets is not something everyone can do.
