Pan Yumei hurriedly moved two stools and placed them in front of the two of them. Xia Xiuzhi poured two glasses of water and handed them over.
A group of people surrounded them.
"Tell me quickly, how do you respond?"
The two sisters looked at each other, Su Lan motioned for Su Fang to speak first, and Su Fang nodded, "I went to deliver a skirt to Chen Li today. After she got it, she asked me to wait a moment, saying that she would try it on to see the size and whether it was suitable. If she needed to make any changes, she should tell me. I thought so too, and my aunt told me to learn more from the salesperson. After a while, she came out wearing that purple lace skirt, and those who didn't buy anything yesterday were all staring in amazement."
"My wife also asked me to buy it. It happened that there were a few people in the supply and marketing department who came to buy things. When they saw the skirt, they wanted to buy it. When they heard that it was ten yuan, they immediately took out the money to buy it. They said they were buying it for their daughter. If you want to see it, Sister Wang will help you remember the size. Just wait until the next day to hand the clothes to Sister Wang. By the way, many people also wanted Sister Wang's clothes. There were 43 pieces in total, and 37 of them were Sister Wang's. Sister Wang is amazing."
Pan Yumei and others were very excited. "It's true. Our factory hasn't even opened yet, but it's already a great start. It's amazing."
"Isn't it? Oh, I was actually worried. We were looking at clothes like this and I was afraid no one would know the value of them."
"Really."
......
Su Li was also happy, "Where's Su Lan?"
Su Lan smiled and said softly, "I was afraid that my sister would be scared to go to the county town alone, so I went with her. We knew that the supply and marketing department had so many orders, so we thought about going to the steel plant to deliver comic books to Xiaogang. It would be great if there were orders, but it would be fine if there were no orders. Who knew that when we arrived, before we even said a word, my aunt was so excited that she wore the skirt out all morning. Many people wanted to buy it. There were many newly married couples and older girls in the family compound. Even the daughter of my uncle's office director bought two skirts. In total, there were 24 skirts. I received all the money and kept it with me."
Su Lan put six hundred and seven yuan into Su Li's hand.
Everyone's eyes were red with tears, this was not just a matter of money, it meant that their relationship could succeed, especially Pan Pandi and Pan Laidi, who had been nervous for so long, but when they saw so much money, they were finally relieved.
I did doubt Su Li's ability before, but I also made good plans, thinking that even if I couldn't make money, I could learn a skill, which was not a loss. Now I feel more at ease. The return money means that they will be real workers in the future.
Su Li was also very happy. She praised the two girls for a few words, and then removed the large cloth that had been covering the room.
"The materials just arrived last night, so everyone should start working right away. We'll give out bonuses at the end of the month."
Everyone was very happy looking at so much fabric, and their hearts were filled with enthusiasm. They started cutting fabric and making clothes.
Su Li went back to the room again, and picked up four overlock machines one by one and placed them in the room. She bought them on Pinxixi, and each one cost several hundred yuan.
"These four machines are hemming machines. I will teach you how to use them. From now on, every piece of clothing must be hemmed. The quality must be controlled. Every piece of clothing must be ironed. Be sure to pay attention to the hygiene of your hands. Also, don't use the leftovers. Make them into hair ornaments and give them to them."
Su Li was talking and teaching at the same time, and for a while the room was filled with the sounds of "clicking" and "creaking".
In fact, she knew in her heart that selling clothes was actually a huge loss, especially the fabrics from her space. Although a lot of the fabrics were processed and there was a backlog of work, for this era, they were all top-notch stuff.
Whether it is the money she pays for the fabric, or the time, labor, machine wear and tear and other costs, it is all a loss for her, but being able to sell it is news, and she has too much fabric in her space, which is her capital. When the business grows bigger, she can buy more or build her own textile factory.
By the time I got off work at five in the afternoon, I had already made more than ten pieces. I had been working on them in the morning, and I was just more energetic in the afternoon. Su Li stipulated that we should start work at nine and get off work at five because the distance between us was far, and we all had to walk here, and there was still work to do at home.
But today no one was willing to leave so early, and it was almost summer, and it would get dark late, so leaving a little later would not be a good idea. However, Su Li did not agree, so everyone went back home after get off work.
Although I regret not being able to continue working, I feel more confident because I have orders.
Generally speaking, Su Li was also very happy. When she was happy, she wanted to cook a table full of food. Since she had her children, the two mothers have been doing all the housework and taking care of the children. Li Dan and the others are very understanding now. Every day after school, they go to see Jinghui and the others first, and then go to the study to read and do homework after dinner. Even Baoya does the same.
After school, she no longer clung to Su Li. She thought that she was already a big sister and should be sensible and set an example for her younger siblings. She should take care of them just as her brothers took care of her.
Xie Zhengchuan was the same. He always said that after she gave birth to the child, she had to act like a big shot and would not let her do any work. Sometimes, when the two mothers were busy, they would wait for him to get home from get off work and let him do the work, imitating Xie's words: young people have a lot of strength, and if you don't let them use it, it will hurt their bodies.
Su Li rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen. Li Ruiying happened to be washing the pot.
"Mom, what are you going to do?"
Li Ruiying shook the loofah in her hand.
"Ni, why are you here? Has the tailor finished get off work?" Li Ruiying was used to calling the tailor, so Su Li didn't correct her.
"Well, today Su Lan and Su Fang came back and said that they sold more than 60 pieces of clothing in the county town. It was a good start. This is a happy occasion. I am very happy. I thought of making something delicious to make our family happy."
"Oh, this is so wonderful. My daughter is amazing. I told you that you are an educated girl and you can do anything. Go, go, go, go and do your work. I will do it."
"Let me do it, mother. Ever since Jinghui and the others were born, you and my mother-in-law have been busy. I have to cook this dinner tonight. You take a rest."
Li Ruiying also knew that her daughter was happy and that her daughter was good at cooking. Baoya and the others had not eaten meals cooked by their mother for a long time, so she simply untied the apron around her waist and handed it to Su Li.
"Okay, then you do it. It just so happens that the children are craving you to cook. Since you don't want to cook, just make more and ask your father-in-law to come over to eat. When Zhengchuan gets off work later, let him and your father-in-law have a drink. I saw some loose wine in the cupboard."
"Hey, mother, you take a rest. When Baoya and the others get out of school, just ask Huzi to call my father-in-law."
After the old man finished his landscaping work recently, he went to the Su Li clothing factory to help pick up bricks and pass tiles. Alas, he has been working all his life and he just can't sit still.
