Chapter 22 Abandonment of Orders
These days, Fan Xiaoyi has tried her best to go out early and return late, avoiding Liao Mingfei intentionally or unintentionally.
On the one hand, it is because she has received this big order and wants to deliver it as soon as possible, which is indeed very busy. On the other hand, Liao Mingfei was tightly entangled, Fan Xiaoyi was busy with her studio every day, and she really didn't have the strength to fall in love, so she had to avoid him.
But Liao Mingfei turned a blind eye to it, and gave her a small gift every few days.
A pen holder that depicts her name in blue and white pattern as a modern card ventilator.
Jingdezhen's unique white, flawless, warm and jade-like porcelain fetus, lined with the three words "Fan Xiaoyi" with a very cute style, and a small heart shape flying up in the upper right corner of the word, adding a bit of playfulness.
Fan Xiaoyi's father used to be a laid-off worker in the People's Porcelain Factory. The former People's Porcelain Factory is one of the top ten iconic porcelain factories in Jingdezhen, known for producing high-quality blue and white porcelain for daily use. Fan Xiaoyi, who grew up in the billet house where her father worked, has always had a blue and white complex.
Seeing this blue and white pen holder, Fan Xiaoyi couldn't put it down, and still brought it to the studio and inserted all her pens into it.
These things are small things that are not worth much, but it is difficult for him to bother to think of them.
Fan Xiaoyi was stunned for a long time at the blue and white pen holder before throwing Liao Mingfei out of his mind.
Today is the day of the delivery of the female merchant's big order, Fan Xiaoyi packed everything in cardboard boxes, box by box, and moved the boxes and sweated profusely.
The weather in the south, as soon as the rainy season is over, begins to be hot and dry, and the hottest time of summer officially kicks off.
But Fan Xiaoyi is in a good mood, she has been busy these days, and she is finally about to deliver.
However, when the female merchant arrived, Fan Xiaoyi was struck by lightning.
"What do you say? You only need a hundred?! ”
The female merchant fumbled with her fingers critically to find the contents of the box, "I can't afford to have more of your quality." ”
Fan Xiaoyi seemed to be poured a basin of cold water on her head, forcing herself to suppress her temperament and say slowly, "But I made it very clear to you at the time, you only give the order price of 3.5 yuan, and I can't even buy raw materials if you want something better." ”
The female merchant shook her head, "But your quality is too poor." ”
Fan Xiaoyi almost couldn't control it, "It's not the first day you purchased, you've been here for so many years, you already know what kind of raw materials you can buy at a price of 3.5, don't you know what raw materials you can buy?" Don't you know what kind of goods you can get by deliberately lowering the price? Please touch your conscience and talk about it, at your price, in the whole old factory, may you find a better quality than me? And I already told you very clearly that day, this price can't be done at all, and you also said, it doesn't matter, you just want impulse, I agreed. Now you tell me only a hundred, where will I leave the 1,900 left? ”
But no matter what she said, the female merchant insisted on only a hundred.
When she really only took a hundred in the end, threw down three hundred and fifty yuan and left, Fan Xiaoyi didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
These days, she has been busy with this order, 2,000 goods, and the cost of light is more than 6,000, it can be said that all the family funds have been advanced, and now people say don't want it, she has no return!
She couldn't help but think of what Liao Mingfei joked about a few days ago if someone defaulted on the debt, and he really made him a prophecy!
Fan Xiaoyi didn't know how to get home, and fell asleep in despair.
With the experience of crying last time, before my mother came back from dancing, my father followed me into the room first, "What's the matter, what difficulties are you encountering?" ”
Fan Xiaoyi was completely buried in the pillow, and she didn't have the strength to say a word.
Dad watched it for a long time, and he could only go out.
However, Fan Xiaoyi, who has always been troubled by sleeping and sleeping the next day, has become the lively Fan Xiaoyi again, but this time she slept for two days in a row.
Even the mother, who had always been nagging, couldn't help but get angry when she saw her state, and turned to bitterness, "Yiyi, you better find a way to find a serious job." Look at the way you are now, there are people who have a meal and a meal, and life is not like this. ”
As soon as the mother and daughter met, Fan Xiaoyi, who was like lighting a cannonball, surprisingly didn't go back, as if she didn't react to everything in the outside world.
Mom was anxious, "Yiyi, you should be silent!" ”
Even Liao Mingfei couldn't help it, "Auntie, let me talk about it." ”
Mom really has no tricks, "It's okay, today's children, our elders can't listen to what they say, you young people are easy to communicate." ”
Waiting for Fan's mother to go out step by step, Liao Mingfei spoke, "Fan Xiaoyi, do you still remember your original intention?" ”
Still completely unresponsive.
Liao Mingfei continued, "I still remember when you said to me that you want to make the most beautiful ceramic jewelry. Your eyes are sparkling as you say this. I was thinking, how can there be such a lovely person. ”
It took a while for the bed to move.
Liao Mingfei continued, "I don't know what you've encountered, but I always feel that the person who waits to get to the studio a second earlier every morning will not have a hurdle." ”
Fan Xiaoyi suddenly raised her head, but she was already in tears, "I really can't get by." ”
Liao Mingfei was surprised.
Fan Xiaoyi, who had been silent for two days, suddenly opened the chatterbox, grabbed Liao Mingfei's shirt, and choked up, "The kiln burned out, I always feel that I work hard, and there is still a chance to catch up with the order." When a design is copied, I always feel that if I can make something that no one else can copy, it won't be copied. When I broke up with my companions, I always felt that I was alone, and there was always a way to hold on if I gritted my teeth. But this time, I really couldn't do anything about it. ”
Fan Xiaoyi couldn't cry, "With a small scatter like me, customers basically won't sign a contract." When something like this happens, I lose all my money. But I can't think of any way to avoid a second or third time. I can still find a way to borrow some money to get by, but what if I try again? I really don't see the point of continuing, maybe like Zhu Zhu is the best path. ”
Listening to her crying, Liao Mingfei really couldn't give any good advice. The bad habits of the industry are really not something that can be changed by the lowest level of small people like Fan Xiaoyi and migrant workers like Liao Mingfei.
Fan Xiaoyi lay on the pillow and cried, "I never believed that hard work would pay off, but I always believed that hard work would at least be better than no hard work." But what's the use of me trying so hard! ”
Liao Mingfei touched her head, and waited until she was tired of crying and finished venting, and then asked, "If you really feel tired, forget it." Like my aunt said, go find a stable job. ”
Fan Xiaoyi still buried her face on the pillow, but it took a while to look up at Liao Mingfei, "But I'm not reconciled, I worked hard for so long, but it was ruined because of a malicious order?" ”
Looking at her stubborn eyes, Liao Mingfei couldn't help sighing, "Look, it's better to say that it's better to be like Xiao Zhu, but in fact, you haven't given up at all in your heart." ”
Fan Xiaoyi wiped her tears and sat up, "What do you think?" ”
Liao Mingfei stared at her carefully, "It depends on your thoughts." ”
Fan Xiaoyi shook her head vigorously, "Just say your opinion." ”
Liao Mingfei pondered for a while, but also shook his head, "This is your career and your way of life, no matter what I say, it will have a guiding effect on your judgment." ”
Fan Xiaoyi insisted surprisingly, "I just want to hear your opinion." ”
Liao Mingfei looked at her seriously and said, "You can use it as an inventory for the Porcelain Expo." ”
Fan Xiaoyi was stunned, and then her eyes lit up.
