Chapter 35: Money, Come in Your Pocket!
Li couldn't make shoes so popular, so she asked the head to collect the money, she and her second siblings were responsible for selling shoes, and more than 30 pairs of shoes were sold out in less than an hour.
The three of them didn't care about anything else, packed up their things and prepared to go home, when they came, the pace of walking on this road may be a little slower, but when they walked back from this road, the three of them walked a little like a fly, when they got home, Tang Qing'er was drying clothes in the yard, Tang Fei'er took Tang Jiao'er and the tiger head to play in the yard, and when they saw their father and mother coming back, the little babies in the yard suddenly swarmed up and hugged their legs.
Sun was happy, picked up the tiger head into her arms, kissed him vigorously on the face, the forehead of the tiger head was slightly wrinkled, and covered Sun's mouth with a tender little fat hand to prevent her mother from continuing to wreak havoc on his little face.
After Tang Qing'er dried her clothes, she trotted to her mother's side, dragging her clothes, and just wanted to ask if she had sold shoes today, but she was stopped by her mother's look, and she forgot that she was still in the yard in a hurry.
Li pulled Tang Qing'er into the house, Tang Tiezhu put the flat burden aside, and then picked up the little girl and entered the house, and Sun pulled his baby into the Li family's house.
Tang Tiezhu took out the money he earned today from his arms, scattered a small pile of copper plates on the kang, and Li began to count the money one by one, about a quarter of an hour, Li counted the money, and earned a total of two hundred and sixteen Wen today, which stunned everyone, they had never earned so much money at one time, Li Shi gave one hundred and ten of them to Sun, and the remaining copper plates were kept for themselves and strung together with thick wires.
Sun was embarrassed to overcharge, only received a hundred Wen, seeing that Li Shi was not angry and said: "Sister-in-law, you see that the idea is from your family, and the cloth is also taken back from the town by your family, I will help embroider some patterns, I didn't make any effort, although we are close to each other, but this money is more than yours, I am really embarrassed to reach out and take it, if I go home and let the head of the family know, I can't say that I always take advantage of you because my eldest brother is the boss, and then I and the head of the family will have to quarrel and fight every day,"
Where did Li think of this idea in Sun's heart, and said with a smile: "If you don't embroider so many beautiful patterns on this upper, these shoes may not sell so quickly, you can keep it, we still have a lot of shoes that are not sold, if you say it, I don't dare to find you to partner in making shoes," so he strung Sun's money and handed it to her.
Tie Zhu was very happy when he saw his mother-in-law thinking about the second family so much, and turned his head to Sun and said: "Second brother and sister, you can keep this money, I am Tiexiong such a brother of a compatriot, I don't think he can still worry about him,"
As soon as Tang Tiezhu's words came out, Sun had no choice but to take the money back, thinking that after the shoes were sold, he would buy some pastries or food for his sister-in-law's baby.
Li thought that it would sell so well today, and from then on she and Sun could continue to make shoes to sell in the town, and said to the owner: "Tomorrow you are going to the town, go to the cloth village last time, and ask the little second brother if there are any rags in the store, if there is, we will not ask for it in vain this time, give him a few copper plates and buy them,"
Tang Tiezhu was happy when he saw the string of money, and hurriedly agreed, and said: "Tomorrow I will let the second brother go with me, there are several cloth villages in the town, if there are not many in his family, let's go to other houses to see,"
The second brother never wants to take advantage of others, if he is allowed to follow him, then after earning more money, he will not be able to do much.
Li Shi thought that this was a good idea, and turned to Sun Shi and said, "What your eldest brother said is that if there is a lot of silk in the rags collected this time, then we can make more small shoes like this, maybe we can sell them until the Chinese New Year, so that we can earn a few taels of silver."
Sun is also calculating a small account in his heart, the more he thinks it is more feasible, most of the people in the village have no work in winter, they can only eat food at home, some people can't even eat food in spring, like their two families have just separated, although the food is more, but the baby is not enough to eat, if you have been earning some surplus money until the New Year, maybe there will be meat to eat during the New Year.
Tang Qing'er saw that her father and mother were all working hard to earn money, and said to Li: "Mother, in the future, I will take care of all the meals and housework at home, you can make shoes at home, and when you earn a lot of silver, you can wear new clothes and buy meat for the New Year."
I wanted to earn a little money by selling shoes, which I used to buy a few chickens or piglets, but the autumn was about to pass, and if I raised poultry in winter, I would not have food, so it was better to save the money, and when it was spring, I suggested that her mother buy a few chickens, ducks and pigs, and her father would cut more grass and feed them when he was fine, so Tang Qinger did not tell her father and mother about this plan.
"It's really my good girl, I thought of such a good way, I can make money and I don't need us to buy fabrics, just spend some time making uppers and soles, and when I earn money, my mother will make clothes for you." Li Shi held the copper plate in his hand, thinking of the idea that the girl came up with, and listening to the girl's such thoughtful words, his face was full of smiles.
At this time, Sun remembered something and said to the babies in the house: "Today, the family earns money, you are not allowed to say it to others, especially your grandmother, let me hear someone among you say that something leaks, and I will never buy you candy to eat in the future," and did not forget to give a sweet date after slapping him.
A few little babies chirped: "Do you really buy us candy to eat?" When will you buy it for us? We must not say it," Sun laughed and said, "Buy, buy, buy,"
In the next few days, the two Tang Tiezhu brothers went shopping around the town's cloth villages, only to get back thirteen bags of rag heads, there are a few cloth village rag heads are useless and ready to throw away, see Tang Tiezhu brothers go to buy very happy, each bag of rag heads has been sold to Tang Tiezhu for two cents, and also told them to wait for the two of them to wait for the rag heads, tell them to come, and some cloth villages directly gave them the rag heads, saying that they have to throw away the province themselves, in short, the thirteen bags of rag heads spent 14 yuan to buy, which is also appropriate.
The next work can't be done by Li alone, Li asked Tang Tiezhu and the brothers to watch how to make soles, follow her to make paste, make cutting boards, and make soles, while Li cut off the soles they made one by one, and Sun embroidered the silk or cotton cloth in the rags alone, and everyone had a clear division of labor, so they did it quickly, and they could make more than ten pairs of small shoes in a day.
