Chapter 43: How Much Do You Earn?

When Chen Xin returned to Erdao Street exhausted, it was close to dinner time, and after walking for nearly two months, Zhou Laifu's dog no longer recognized him, and barked at him, Chen Xin kicked it, and the dog quickly hid back in the yard.

Chen Xin arrived outside his yard, only to find that the two stores were open, he was too hurried when he came back just now, he didn't notice the situation in the store, he walked in by the way, Zhou Laifu's wife was still busy in the shop, Chen Xin looked around, there were two wooden models in dresses on the door, and they were wearing wigs made of ponytails, the fitting room was separated by wooden boards in the corner, the four walls were painted with white plaster, and the middle part was pasted on the wall with dark cotton cloth as a background, and some dresses were hung on hangers. There is also a row of skirts hanging on the long shelf in the middle of the store, similar to the layout of the clothing store in later generations.

Zhou Laifu's wife only found Chen Xin at this time, and hurriedly greeted him, Chen Xin nodded with a smile, Zhou Laifu's wife said to Chen Xin: "Brother Chen, you can come back, these days, Brother Liu has been talking many times, saying that if you are here, this business will definitely be good." ”

"Sister-in-law of the Zhou family, you also work here, so what about the two children in your family?"

"What's that, it's feasible to take a happy sister now, one person cooks the meals of more than ten people, and we all eat with your family, I said to deduct the food money, you see Brother Liu, he doesn't deduct it, so where can we go."

Of course, Chen Xin didn't care about this food expense, and said with a smile: "Why be polite to the neighbors, when we first came, Brother Zhou took us to buy things and helped clean all the time, so we should not be careful." ”

"Brother Chen, that's not what it should be, my man and I are now working here at night, Brother Liu's salary is also high, it's seven or eight taels this month, you say how capable you two are, there are many people working with Brother Liu on Erdao Street right now, and they are all counting on Brother Chen to come back, this business can be better."

Chen Xin saw that Zhou Laifu's wife's eyes were dark, and persuaded: "Sister-in-law of the Zhou family, don't be tired, now that the business has just started, the future will be long, don't lose a big one because of a small one." ”

"Yes, I can save it, everyone can trust you, and it will definitely get better and better."

Chen Xin smiled, looked at a dress she was arranging, it was with a hanger, and a note was pasted on the hanger, on which was half written salesman Tian Po, the type was consignment, outsourcing Zhangjia scarf hat shop, tailor Li Caigui, finishing Shen Li's, and the status was not picked up. The lower half is written about the size of the clothes.

Chen Xin secretly praised that Liu Minyou had been in good order in the company's management projects, and now he is still serious about making this clothing, and such a picture is pasted on the hanger of each dress, and the status is clear at a glance.

"Sister-in-law of the Zhou family, what does this tidying up mean?"

"All the clothes made outside, have to be sent back here to be carefully checked, and then hung up with hangers, if some of the seams are not done, they have been done here, if the size is not right, the sleeves are not equal to the length of this, you have to deduct the silver of the house, and if the rework is not good, don't let them do it, and now I want to do this in our store...... There are a lot of outsourcings, and even Liye Fang is looking forward to it. ”

It turned out to be quality inspection and packaging, Chen Xin looked at the Shen Li family written on the back, could it be the Shen Lou lady.

"Sister-in-law of the Zhou family, is this Shen Li family who is tidying up the lady of Shen Lou?"

"That's it, I've gone back today, hey!" Zhou Laifu's wife looked at the people around, and whispered: "There is a shortage of people these days, Shen Lou and his mother let her come, this Liu Gongzi has a good heart, leaving the Shen family's lady to work, one or two and a half dollars of silver a month, and she will give a lot, but I hate that Shen Lou makes trouble every day, and many people who originally wanted to say goodbye to Brother Liu were dragged down by him so much." If you want me to say, you shouldn't let her come. ”

Chen Xin was stunned, "And this good thing, Brother Liu is so popular?" How good is the shop business? ”

Zhou Laifu's wife raised her face and said: "Then I don't know, anyway, there are endless clothes every day, and even the industrial workshop has a matchmaker to inquire about Brother Liu." ”

It's really unpredictable, I haven't found a talent yet, and Liu Min has this stuffy gourd first. He walked through the store and came to the courtyard, Dai Zheng just moved a stool and sat at the door of Chen Xin's house, it was indeed like a door god, Wang Yong was also standing outside, the door was open, and more than a dozen big bags were placed on the ground.

"Brother Chen, you're back." Dai Zhenggang looked at Chen Xin, and said happily, Chen Xin looked at the goods in the house, each package was three thousand taels, a total of twelve packs.

"Brother Wang Yong, you will sleep in this house tonight, Mr. Song will come tomorrow, and I will arrange someone to keep vigil in the courtyard."

"The villain thanked Mr. Chen." That Wang Yong was short and strong, and replied in a rough voice.

Chen Xin called Shangdai Zhenggang, and the two carried Chen Xin's six bags to Liu Minyou's house, and Wang Yong entered the house by himself, closed the door, and seemed to be planning to stay until tomorrow before coming out.

Liu Minyou was writing the account books and cleaning up the orders in the past few days, Wang Daixi helped to plan the plate, looked at the big bags of things that Chen Xin moved in, and said: "You copper ingots are dead and heavy, my brother and I estimated that these bags of copper ingots are probably worth nearly a hundred taels, and it is worth it if you earn so much in two months." During the day, Chen Xin told them that there were copper ingots in their bags, and Liu Min didn't bother to open them to see it.

Chen Xin was not busy explaining: "It's not, but it's far worse than in our store, Boss Liu quickly tell the little brother how much he earned." ”

Liu Min smiled confidently: "Director Chen, wait a minute, my secretary will report on the performance of the past two months in a moment." ”

"Director?" Wang Daixi scratched his head.

Liu Minyou said: "Don't worry about anything, you can report to Brother Chen how many things you have done and how much silver you have earned." "Since the crossing, it is mainly Chen Xin who is making money, Liu Minyou is making great progress now, he has long wanted to wait for Chen Xin to come back and show off, and now he has finally waited for the opportunity.

"Okay, Brother Chen, we opened in early June, and we have sold a total of 630 dresses today, of which 121 are still being sewn. Four hundred and sixty pieces of silk satin, one hundred and seventeen pieces of cotton, a total of three hundred and sixty taels were earned. ”

Chen Xin was a little surprised, "More than three hundred taels a month, Boss Liu is really powerful." "The clothing stores in these years are not garment factories, and there are many people who only earn twenty or thirty taels a year.

Liu Min waved his hand generously and said: "This is also inseparable from your idea, I think you will not go to sea in the future, we are now short of manpower, the tailors in the neighborhood come to do night work at night, as long as the tailor can be found in the hat shop, it is also done by every family, you and Lu Donkey can help somewhat." ”

Dai Zhenggang said: "Brother Liu is right, although you can make a lot of money when you go to sea, how can there be a clothing store." ”

Chen Xin touched his nose, these two people really tasted the sweetness, but he definitely couldn't do this thing of cutting and cutting, Liu Min would do it himself if he loved it.

"Come on, I won't be a tailor even if I don't go to sea......"

"It's not a dry tailor, that requires skills, I'm going to arrange for you to be a handyman."

"Thank you Boss Liu for your love, but my ability is really limited, so it is better to ask Gao Ming, and I will only care about when the accommodation environment can be improved. The second is to care about the fur seals when their training will be normal. Chen Xin asked with a smile on his face.

Liu Minyou looked outside the door in a blink of an eye, there was a piece of rags and shredded paper on the ground, and he could hardly find a place to put his feet, a little embarrassed: "It's really messy, but the place is only so big, and there is no way." ”

"Boss Liu, let's buy a special shop pΓΉ as a clothing store on Dongmen Street, and go back to live here at night, wouldn't it be better to separate from each other."

Liu Minyou thought for a while: "Well, of course it's better, but there is no silver in the account, and all the materials have been bought." Brother Chen is afraid that he will have to hold on for some time. ”

"Well, I'll ...... it"

At this moment, Zhu Guobin's voice sounded in the courtyard, "Mr. Chen, there is nothing to do here, I will go back to the boat, and I can guard the boat." ”

Chen Xin hurriedly walked out, Zhu Guobin took Qin Lufang and Ning Chengxian here, Zhang Erhui arranged for them to live in the house of the three followers, and at this time, Zhu Guobin heard that Chen Xin was back, so he was about to leave.

"Brother Zhu can rest here at night, and today Brother Lu will guard the ...... first."

"No, I'm used to living on a boat, and Brother Lu has been away from home for a long time, so he should come back first."

This Zhu Guobin's kung fu has been honed in life and death, and he has never had a trace of tricks, coupled with his enthusiasm for ordinary brothers, he is quite respected by all sailors. Chen Xin also attaches great importance to him and hopes to keep him for his own use.

Zhu Guobin insisted on going back, but Chen Xin couldn't resist him, so he had to agree and send him out all the way.

"Guobin, what are your plans for the future?"

"I want to fight the Tartars, and if I don't go to sea here, I'm going to go to Liaodong to join the army."

"Joining the army is also a way, but you have a lot of money this time, to say that you are a medium-sized family, why do you have to join the army?"

"I only kept a hundred taels, and the rest of the silver was placed under the bed of the Erhui brothers, I don't need this lot of silver, just enough for my own use."

Of course, Chen Xin couldn't let such a strong helper go to the Guanning Army, and persuaded him: "Guobin, you are bent on killing the Tartars, which is a good thing, but it may not necessarily go to the Guanning Army, I will go to Weihaiwei soon, you also know there, it is only two days to Lushun Shunfeng, I am because it is convenient to kill the Tartars, and the specially selected Weihaiwei, although he is not a soldier, he can also kill slaves for the country, and some of us have a ship, and we can also pass from the sea." Do you see when Guan Ningjun went to Hedong, and when he took the initiative to kill the Tartars, or our own brothers were happy together. ”

Zhu Guobin lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "As long as Brother Chen kills the Tartars, I will follow Brother Chen." But I don't take back the silver, I don't know how to use it when I take it, it's a burden, so I gave it to a few little brothers from Liaodong. ”

Chen Xin knew how to get along with a person with such a character, and he was not polite to him, so he agreed, and only told him to find himself directly when he needed silver, Zhu Guobin is brave in battle, and he is accustomed to hardship and simplicity, he is really a natural soldier, leave people first, and talk about whether to kill the Tartars or not.

sent him all the way to Zhenhaimen Street, and Chen Xin turned around and came back.

Before dinner, Lu Donkey also rushed back, everyone arrived, and naturally there was some joy, Chen Xin had to go to the store tomorrow to help deal with the future generations of Zhao Dong's family, and he rested early after eating, because Wang Yong occupied Chen Xin's room, Qin Lufang and Ning Cheng occupied Zhang Erhui's room, and Chen Xin had to live in the same room with Liu Minyou.

"Why didn't the Assembly see it?" Chen Xin went to Zhang Erhui's bed and took the silver left by Zhu Guobin, and finally remembered that there was still a Zhang conference.

"I sent him to the Qinglou to squat, he is still good this month, selling ** ten pieces."

Chen Xin pretended to be surprised: "Hey, you actually agreed to let him go to that place, isn't the sacrifice too great." You are not afraid that those ladies will eat his chickens. ”

Liu Minyou saw that he was going to talk nonsense again, pulled him into the house, and said, "They are all seventeen or eighteen, it's time to make your own decisions." Besides, we are doing legitimate business, and we are not afraid of what others say. ”

Chen Xin nodded and said, "That is, in fact, my sacrifice is even greater, and I even killed people." ”

Liu Min looked at Chen Xin suspiciously and said, "It's really fake, how many bags of copper ingots do you want to kill?" ”

Chen Xin pulled over a stool and sat down, looked at the pile of silver bags on the ground and sighed: "Really, the rice at sea is not delicious." ”

Liu Min said: "Then you won't go to sea in the future, anyway, your owner is dead, don't do that bookkeeper, our store has enough money, and when this batch of money is recovered, let's go to Zhenhaimen Street to buy a shop, and then make the business bigger, you will be the general manager, and I will be the deputy general ......manager."

"Just take this and buy it, what are you waiting for?" Chen Xin threw the more than 1,000 taels of silver left by Zhu Guobin on the table with a bang, Liu Minyou opened it and saw a pile of white silver, he was taken aback, stood up suddenly, knocked the stool to the ground, and hurriedly closed the door. Chen Xin heard the door of Lu Donkey and Dai Zhenggang's house in the courtyard also slammed shut.

"Why is it so much silver, I thought you would earn a few bags of copper ingots and come back......"

"That's right, it's the packs of copper ingots you earned."

"You're still lying to me, so what's the matter with so many silver taels here?"

"Then you can go and see the inside of the bag yourself."

Liu Min opened a silver bag suspiciously, a dazzling silver-white, Liu Min was stunned for a while, suddenly opened another silver bag, and then fainted on the ground with a pop.
