Chapter 946: Striving for Excellence (Additional Update 1)
Tang Ting realized that she was the only one who focused all her energy on making money.
Earning money makes people feel happy, especially the sense of accomplishment when she uses her labor income to buy things for her parents, brother and sister-in-law, which she cannot experience doing anything else.
However, after listening to Xu Wanning's remarks and comparing Chen Qiaoqiao and Gu Meng, Tang Ting felt that she had indeed put the cart before the horse.
Making money is important, but for the present, it is more important to complete your studies first.
"Then I will be like you, study hard first, and use my spare time to go to Wanning's boutique to help. By the way, Wanning, do you have any ideas about the boutique?"
Xu Wanning thought for a while and said, "First of all, we need to First choose a location. My idea is to open it near our school. In the specific location, we should first see if there are any houses for rent around the school, and then choose the most suitable one.
Wen Yan, Tang Ting patted her chest. : "This is all mine. Tomorrow at the latest, I will be able to decide on the location.
Before the Chinese New Year, Tang Ting and Chen Qiaoqiao used their free time to look for houses near the school, and have already selected a few, but they didn't follow up. Xu Wanning communicated that she did not commit to renting a house until she was not sure whether the boutique could really open.
But now that Xu Wanning's approval has been obtained, renting a house is a matter of course.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to Tingting. I feel relieved
." Wan Ning, what do we want to sell in our boutique? "
Xu Wanning has already prepared the items to be sold.
First, bell-bottom pants and bodybuilding pants.
"Bodybuilding pants? What is this? "
Xu Wanning said with a smile: "There is a popular jingle in Yangcheng that no matter how big the belly is, everyone wears bodybuilding pants. You can imagine how popular bodybuilding pants are, and bodybuilding pants are also very tolerant. No matter how tall or short you are, you can wear bodybuilding pants." It can be worn and is easy to match
. As for bell-bottom pants, in fact, during the Chinese New Year period, they were already worn by young people who pursue the trend, but the audience group is relatively small after all, and they are not sold even in department stores in Beijing.
The bodybuilding pants and bell-bottom pants were bought by Xu Wanning when she went on a business trip to Yangcheng. Because it was the cold winter at that time, it was not suitable to take them out, so they have been piled up in her space.
In addition to bell-bottom pants and bodybuilding pants, Xu Wanning also has some small but exquisite jewelry in her space, which she bought as a pick-up when purchasing goods from Yangcheng.
But relying solely on these things, it is still a little weak to build the reputation of the boutique.
Therefore, Xu Wanning thought of the headdress that Mother Lin had done before.
After returning home, Xu Wanning told Mother Lin what she thought.
"Mom, those old sisters of yours should also be good at needlework, right? They don't need to make anything too exquisite, just make some flowers. But it's different from the ones Lin Quan sold at the stall before. This time the hair is The flowers should be more exquisite.
After listening to Xu Wanning's words, Mother Lin said: "It's definitely no problem for them to make some simple head flowers. When I made the head flowers at home before, they even came to help me. But you said you want something with a more exquisite style. I feel that it’s a bit too much
to ask whether the craftsmanship is good. The most important thing is, how can it be considered an exquisite style to meet Xu Wanning’s requirements?
"Let's do this, Mom, I'll draw out the drawings first, and you can help me make a few, and then you can ask the aunts you're close to to see if anyone with good craftsmanship can do it. As long as they can reach the standard, then you can I paid them individually and never let the aunts work for free.
Mother Lin nodded: "No problem. Give me the drawings when you have time. I will make a few patterns first for them to see.
Two days later, Xu Wanning just graduated from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. When I got home, I found that there were seven or eight aunts sitting in the main room, surrounding Mother Lin, sitting and chatting together.
"A-Ning is back. It's windy outside today. It must be freezing, right?"
"Fortunately, it's not very cold
." Mother Lin patted the empty seat next to her and said, "A-Ning, come sit here. Your aunts have already followed your request." , I made the hair flower, come here and see if it can get into your eyes.
After hearing the words, Xu Wanning sat next to Mother Lin.
On the coffee table is a flower headdress. The design was made from the drawings she gave to Mrs. Lin the morning before yesterday. At first glance, it looks pretty decent.
Xu Wanning picked one up. After holding it in her hands, she realized that the quality was even better than she had imagined.
Because she took the fabric out of the space and it felt very good in her hands, and Mother Lin also knew Xu Wanning's pursuit of perfection, so when putting the rubber bands, she specifically told her to put at least three to start with.
Although the cost has increased, you don't have to worry about quality issues at all, and because of the extra rubber bands, the heft in the hand allows people who know the product to tell that what they get is definitely not a cheap product.
In addition to the good use of raw materials, the most important thing is the craftsmanship of the aunts. The hemming and locking are so exquisite that no extra threads can be seen.
"Very good, I'm very satisfied. The hard work of the aunts has
been recognized by Xu Wanning, and everyone's anxious hearts are finally at peace. But regarding the question of how much salary each person can receive, no aunt took the initiative to ask
.
I feel embarrassed, after all, it takes no effort to do things like hairdressing. It seems a bit too mercenary for them to take the initiative to talk about money.
Secondly, everyone knows that Xu Wanning's father is one of the largest commanders of the Beijing Military Region. , the other chief is also a relative of her natal family, Lin An was promoted to battalion commander at a young age, and their future is immeasurable.
They are mothers, so it would be fine if they cannot help their son. The petty profits have affected the career of the sons, and even without the daughter-in-law expelling them, they themselves are too embarrassed to stay.
Looking at the changeable expressions on the faces of the aunts, Xu Wanning has already guessed what they are thinking.
"About wages. Because I provide all the raw materials, the aunts only need to spend a little time, but the handwork is easy to say, but not easy to do. Therefore, I expect that for each head flower, I will give the aunts five cents for handwork. After the fee reaches one hundred, an additional fifty cents commission will be added. I wonder if the aunts can accept it? "
It's five cents each, ten is fifty cents, one hundred is five cents, plus the commission of fifty cents, that's five cents.
And making the first flower actually doesn't take much time, you can do it in an afternoon . Make twenty or thirty flowers,
which means that if you can make at least five hundred flowers a month, you will earn at least twenty-two yuan!
