Ma Dali was also very curious and asked, "Fourth brother, how much did you sell in total? Don't keep us in suspense, tell us now."
Chen Jixing narrowed his eyes, then smiled and pointed with one finger.
“After reckoning, it’s probably about this number.”
Zhu Siya raised her eyebrows, feeling a little disappointed.
"My sister said the profit was close to two thousand. That means I only made three thousand. I don't even have to factor in the shipping fee this time. If I do, I'll only make half of that."
"It's okay, it's okay." Ma Dali was very happy and explained, "Last time we bought ready-made embroidery products, and the small boss made a profit from it. Now we buy raw materials and hire people ourselves, so the cost will definitely be reduced. In addition, the quantity last time was not large enough, we were just testing the waters. This time we can increase the quantity, thereby increasing the profit margin."
Chen Xingling was also a little disappointed, but she felt that the profit margin was acceptable, although it was far from her goal.
"Half is half. If sales are good, we can raise the price appropriately next time. For pillowcases, curtains, tablecloths, etc., we can raise the price appropriately."
"Yes, yes." Zhu Siya agreed: "We did sell it cheaper the first time."
Chen Jixing glanced at them and reminded them with a smile: "What are you doing? Don't you need to calculate the exchange rate? I said it's this number - but it's not RMB! Um... Let me calculate, it's about seven times."
What? ! ! !
Everyone stared in surprise, then burst into laughter in disbelief.
"Really?! No - you have to be kidding me!"
"Tell me the truth! How much is it?!"
Chen Jixing made a shushing gesture and replied, "More than 38,000."
Everyone listened with bated breath, looking at each other, and soon they showed happy and excited smiles.
Zhu Siya hugged Chen Jixing and kissed him on the cheek excitedly.
"Awesome! Awesome!"
Chen Jixing happily hugged his wife and explained, "Lingling is right. The labor costs here are relatively cheap. Plus, there is no freight, so we can make so much money this time. Next, we will save money and spread the cost on the freight, and the profit will still be considerable."
"Impressive! Impressive! Very impressive!" Ma Dali nodded continuously.
Gu Qi found it a little unbelievable and asked if the shipping cost would be very expensive.
Chen Jixing replied: "Ours doesn't weigh much and takes up little space. Plus, I'm familiar with the old guys, so it shouldn't cost much."
"The profit is really high." Gu Qi praised: "After the first order, the investment in the embroidery factory and the previous investment have been recovered. The cost will not be too high, and the freight is also low. The profit margin will become larger and larger in the future."
The other brothers and sisters-in-law were also happy for them and expressed their intention to have a dinner to welcome Chen Jixing.
Chen Sanshui and his wife were still worried about whether the embroidery factory could be established. But when they heard that they had earned back all the money from the first order, they were so happy that they danced with joy.
"The children have to go to school on weekdays, so it will be more lively if we celebrate together on the weekend."
"Let's set up a few tables and have fun together! It's been a while since our family had a meal together, it's really time to get together!"
"Da Li, come along when the time comes!"
"Tut-tut-tut!"
The construction of the embroidery factory was mainly paid in advance by Zhu Siya, and part of it was paid by Chen Xingling. Although Ma Dali did not pay, he has been with the company from the beginning to now. Although he did not pay, he was the one who contributed the most.
Chen Jixing gave all the money to Chen Xingling, the accountant and financial arranger.
Chen Xingling repaid the money that Zhu Siya had advanced, took back the money he had paid out of his pocket, and took out another 3,000 yuan as working capital and prepaid capital for the factory, and the rest was distributed as dividends according to the previous shareholding system.
Zhu Siya and his wife got half, more than 10,000 yuan, Chen Xingling got about 8,000 yuan, and Ma Dali got about 2,000 yuan.
Everyone was very satisfied with this. They were full of energy, joy and satisfaction.
Ma Dali, in particular, was so happy holding a handful of coins, as if he had won the lottery.
Chen Xingling couldn't help but tease: "Why? Too much? I don't mind helping you get rid of some?"
"No." Ma Dali was very happy: "This is the first time I hold so much money. I always feel it is not real - it's like a dream!"
Chen Xingling laughed loudly: "There will be plenty of opportunities to make money in the future! You will probably be so happy that you will go crazy!"
"Go crazy if you want to." Ma Dali laughed at himself: "As long as there is money to be made, it doesn't matter."
Gu Qi joked: "Can you recognize money when you are crazy? What's the point of having money when you are crazy?"
"Okay, okay!" Ma Dali laughed, "You two should stop making fun of me! Huzi is still the best. I will definitely give you a big red envelope when the New Year comes!"
Little Tiger laughed: "It has to be big enough!"
"Of course." Ma Dali nodded.
At this time, Chen Jixing walked over holding his wife's hand.
"What are you guys talking about? You're laughing so happily! Oh, by the way, I have something to discuss with you. Siya and I think we must install a phone for our Xiuying factory so that we can keep in touch with our customers. We also need to keep in touch with the shipping company so that we don't have to go over and ask every few days."
Telephone? ?
Everyone became interested instantly!
Chen Xingling agreed immediately: "I agree! Although the phone is expensive, the phone bill is also expensive, but if we want to expand our business, we must install a phone for easy communication."
Gu Qi nodded in agreement: "It is indeed necessary."
"But..." Ma Dali couldn't help but remind him, "I heard that a phone is very expensive. How much does it cost? And I heard that the department head has to apply for it. It seems that the procedure is very complicated."
"Don't be afraid." Chen Xingling explained: "We are an embroidery factory, and the factory is our department. When we have time, we will go to the relevant departments to ask what procedures are required and we will go through them slowly. Let's talk about the price - it should be more than 6,000."
Everyone said in unison that it was expensive!
"I heard that a private phone installation might cost 6,000 to 7,000 yuan! Too expensive!"
"No way? That's too expensive!"
Zhu Siya suggested: "We can earn money, but we can't save money on telephones. We need telephones to communicate with each other, and it's inconvenient to run back and forth to the post office all the time. We have troubled Aqi these times. The phone is from the shipyard, and Aqi is a shipyard employee, but we are not!"
"This is not a long-term solution." Chen Xingling nodded: "It will be more convenient if we have a phone."
Chen Jixing looked at Ma Dali and asked, "What about you? Do you agree?"
Ma Dali thought for a moment and said, "If you all support it, then I will definitely support it too. The embroidery factory has its own exclusive phone number, so it will be more convenient to contact. It doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive, as long as we keep making money, we can make it back sooner or later."
Chen Xingling smiled and said, "Okay! That's settled then! I don't know when I can get the application, and how much it will cost by then - the factory will pay for it first, and if it's not enough, you can come to us to share the cost."
"No problem!" Zhu Siya agreed.
Ma Dali also said it was no problem.
The success of the business pilot gave everyone a shot of reassurance.
From that time on, Chen Jixing completely gave up his dream of wandering on the sea and stayed with his wife. The couple managed the embroidery factory together and started a new journey of life.
