Dressed as an evil mother-in-law, I will clean up and take the whole family away
Chapter 85 A good start
Chapter 85 A good start
"What's so mysterious?" Knowing that it was an important matter and it would take a long time to talk about it, Lin Ling simply sat down and poured herself a cup of tea to moisten her mouth.
Seeing that she was not alienated, Mrs. Yu raised the corners of her mouth slightly, sat to one side and whispered, "Although we have not known each other for a long time, I regard you as a good friend."
First, she got closer. Seeing Lin Ling nodding in agreement, she continued: "I heard that there are new textile machines in Mancheng on the border, which can save time and effort. As you can see, I am the only one who runs the embroidery workshop. I have a lot of things to do and I am too busy. It would be much more convenient to have a textile machine."
"Ma'am, just tell me." After all the foreshadowing without getting to the point, Lin Ling pointed it out directly.
Having said this, Mrs. Yu got straight to the point: "Don't your boss have a carriage? I wonder if he can help me pull one over."
After finishing speaking, she pursed her lips, and after thinking about the pros and cons, she added: "Send it quietly so that no one can see it."
Lin Ling expressed doubts: "What's wrong?"
Well, Mrs. Yu sighed first, then reluctantly mentioned: "A group of women in the town spontaneously organized an embroidery workshop. There is no shop, and the people are all veterans. Not only have they robbed a lot of business, but also poached a few people. I'm afraid. After they found out, they completely blocked my escape route, and this embroidery workshop couldn't continue to operate."
Originally, the embroidery shop was a single family and the business was booming, so it was able to support so many embroiderers in the year of disaster. Who knew that an empty embroidery shop would force her to despair?
Lin Ling originally wanted to say that the boss had returned to the stables and there was no carriage available, but Madam Yu said it first.
"No Bai La, it will take at least seven or eight days to go back and forth, two hundred yuan."
This price is not low if you go to someone else. It’s not that Mrs. Yu doesn’t want to find a rickshaw driver in the town. When she went there, she happened to see a couple talking. That woman was one of the people organizing the small workshop!
"Okay." Lin Ling agreed immediately.
He had money to earn and a horse at home, but Gu Yunting had nothing to do, so he just needed it, right? !
"Okay, by the way, if your wife wants to embroider at home, you can take these back and embroider them for her, six cents each." Mrs. Yu quickly walked to the table, rummaged around and took out five pieces. Pattern, five embroidered handkerchiefs.
Although it is just an embroidered handkerchief, the fabric is soft and skin-friendly, and you can feel its expensiveness to the touch.
Lin Ling looked at the pattern again. It was a lotus with two stems and petals blooming in layers. The colors were dark and light. How many days would it take to embroider one piece?
"Ms. Yu, I'm curious, so I'd like to ask, where do you sell these handkerchiefs?"
The cost of handwork is six cents, plus the cost of fabrics and transportation. The total cost of selling is not twenty cents?
Lin Ling didn't dare to think about which rich lady was using this 20-cent handkerchief. It was too luxurious.
"Jiangnan." Madam Yu only replied with two short words, then she took out another drawing and the purse: "Just buy this one."
"Okay." Hearing that Mrs. Yu didn't want to say more, Lin Ling stopped exploring and stood up to talk about another matter: "How much does a pound of rice cost for you on weekdays?"
Madam Yu chuckled: "Forty-five, there are eleven or two people in my embroidery workshop, and it's only about a hundred kilograms per month. What, you want to sell it to me?"
Forty-five cents, let’s not say whether Madam Yu will accept it or not. Even at this price, she won’t make much money.
But if you get more, it doesn't mean you can't get it at a lower price. This time I'm going to Mancheng, isn't it the place marked by Lao Sanxiao?
"Just asking." After Lin Ling put everything into the small bag, she carried Xiaosi on her back and left the embroidery workshop.
When she came to buy vegetables at noon, she didn't go to the entrance of the town and didn't know how Laosan's rice was selling.
She quickened her pace, and when she arrived at the town's entrance, the father and son had been waiting for a long time.
Gu Panhui hurriedly ran over and hugged Xiaosi, his face filled with joy that he couldn't even hide: "Mom, we sold them all, fifty pounds, a total of two, two, five hundred yuan, which means we only need to run this If you go there, you can earn 500 yuan, which is much better than going to work!"
It’s comparable to a person’s monthly salary. Gu Yunting looked happy and walked over with a smile: "We have horses. I will go back and make a cart. It will not be a problem to pull seven or eight hundred kilograms."
"Mom, if we calculate this way, we can earn more than two taels in one trip, so my second brother's repair will not have to worry!"
The third child shook Lin Ling's hand excitedly.
At first glance, it sounded a bit impulsive. Lin Ling nodded, very calmly: "How long have you been selling? How much can you buy at most at one time?"
As they talked, they continued to walk out, but Lao Ma hadn't come yet.
"Everything that was sold out in the afternoon was half a catty and half a catty in the front. At most, the last person bought ten catties for fifty cents." Gu Yunting naturally considered what she said and continued: "It's difficult to sell. But as long as we can sell out the goods in a month, we can earn more than doing a job, what do you think?"
Lin Ling nodded and saw the sound of Lao Ma driving the carriage. She chuckled and said, "Find more regular buyers. This is a long-term solution."
The carriage has arrived.
Lao Ma rubbed his head in embarrassment: "I'm too busy. I'm a little late. Have you waited for a long time? There are snacks in the car. Let's eat some first."
Gu Panhui had already carried Xiao Si up first. When he stretched his head, he saw the bulging oil bag on the position. The air was full of sweetness and the fragrance was alluring.
Xiaosi turned back eagerly with questioning eyes.
Lin Ling nodded: "Save some for your sister-in-law and second brother."
Hearing this, Xiaosi's eyes darkened, and he stared at the third brother untying the oil bag without saying anything.
Lin Ling followed and sat in, while Gu Yunting sat outside.
"Pan Rui is very good at the stables. He has not slacked off in the past few days. The horses are also obedient when he returns. Everyone will not be unconvinced when Lao Jin is gone. Don't worry."
"With you as our master, how can we worry about it? You are the only one who is suffering." Lin Ling was so grateful. If he hadn't saved Cheng Yin and had a good start, he wouldn't be living a good life now.
"You called me master, and I have to bear it. You don't have to be polite to me. After all, you have to say thank you, and I thank you more." Lao Ma laughed casually and naturally, bringing the relationship closer.
After going back and forth, Lin Ling stopped saying polite words.
Before, he thought there was something wrong with Lin Ling, but now that he has returned home, Gu Yunting only sees her dealing with everyone for the sake of the children. Guilt comes to his mind, and he looks sideways at the sunset, which is like a burning mountain.
This disaster year, I really don’t know when it will be over.
The roads we walked were all dry and cracked, and the green appearance of the crops in previous years was gone. The government's disaster relief food had to wait for the newly appointed county magistrate. I just hoped he would be a good official.
After chatting all the way to the door of the house, Lao Ma put people down and went home as usual.
The third child carried Xiaosi into the yard, followed by Gu Yunting and Lin Ling. Before they stepped in, someone called from behind.
"Third brother, younger brother and sister."
The people who came were none other than Mrs. Gu and Ruirui. When they stood there, the wind blew, and the two paper figures swayed a few times.
