After Chen Xiangqin helped her mother-in-law clean up the mess in this place, she watched her mother-in-law bring out her and Xiaoru's meals, she was not in a hurry to eat, but went back to the house and rushed to Zhang Xiaoru, who was still immersed in the sewing machine, and said,

"Xiaoru, let's stop tonight, rest. Go, wash your hands and eat. ”

"Sister-in-law, are you really quitting? However, isn't the proprietress in this dress in a hurry? If we don't rush out tonight, can we do it? Zhang Xiaoru stopped her hand and felt that her shoulder hurt like a needle prick, and when she got up, she found that her waist also hurt badly.

"Then give two less. We can't do this, we have to die of exhaustion. Chen Xiangqin walked over and pinched her shoulders for her, "Although making money is important, the body is more important." This money can never be earned, and when you earn enough, you should rest. ”

"Sister-in-law, how much did we earn? Is it enough? Zhang Xiaoru asked a little confused.

Chen Xiangqin was amused by her innocent question, and asked her with a smile, "Then how much do you think is enough?" ”

"A thousand, a thousand is a lot. I think that's enough. Zhang Xiaoru hesitated and said, she still remembered how worried her parents were for this thousand bride price, and how difficult it was to ask people to borrow money everywhere to get the money.

So, for her, a thousand dollars is really enough!

"Silly girl, where is there so little." Chen Xiangqin smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "When we finish eating, let's count the money together and calculate how much we earn." ”

Not to mention Zhang Xiaoru, in fact, she didn't have time to calculate how much money she had, but she just wrote down the number of various clothes sold and the money for the fabrics she bought every time. Every time I got the money, I stuffed it into my bag and didn't count it.

"Count the money together?!" Speaking of this, Zhang Xiaoru's eyes immediately lit up, she couldn't be excited, she hadn't counted the money yet, and she couldn't wait to start now, "I'll wash my hands." Sister-in-law, hurry up too. ”

-

After eating, Chen Xiangqin took out her account book and a schoolbag containing money and put them on the table.

"Mom, please close the door. Dad, you are the head of the family, a witness, sit down. Chen Xiangqin couldn't help laughing when she saw that her mother-in-law not only closed the door, but also put on the bolt.

The family locked the door and counted the money together, thinking about it, they felt happy, but unfortunately Zhang Chenyi was not around.

Chen Xiangqin pulled the schoolbag open directly, not to take the money out with her hands, but to turn it over and go directly to the table, and in an instant, all kinds of banknotes of various denominations, like fallen leaves, all fell onto the table, accounting for almost half of the table!

"Oh my God! This, why is this so much money! Mother Zhang was dumbfounded, and her hands began to tremble.

"Mom! Sister-in-law, how much is this?! We've made so much money, it can't be fake, right?! Zhang Xiaoru stretched out her hand and pulled down the pile of money, wanting to see if there were pieces of paper or something mixed in it.

Zhang's father was also confused, he was stunned for a moment, touched the cigarette stick on his waist, and wanted to take two puffs immediately!

They had never seen so much money all at once, and the impact was tantamount to a volcanic eruption to them.

"Most of them are one or two diagonals, so it seems to be a lot, but in fact, there is not much money." Chen Xiangqin waved her hand and beckoned Zhang's mother and others, "Mom, Dad, there are rubber bands, let's do it together and count the money separately, so that you can bundle fifty pieces of one or five jiao into a stack, and if there are not many five or ten yuan like this, we will pick them out first......

After Chen Xiangqin finished saying what to do, she divided the money into four piles and began to sort them.

It's a pleasure to count money like this, especially when the money is earned by yourself little by little, and it is full of joy and happiness.

After counting for more than ten minutes, everyone divided what was in front of them, one cent, two cents, five cents, one piece, two pieces, five pieces, and all kinds of denominations.

After all the yards were done, Chen Xiangqin recorded them one by one, and finally summed them up, looking at the final result, she couldn't help but smile and squint her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, how much?" Zhang Xiaoru stretched her neck to see the results of her calculations, and couldn't wait to ask.

Chen Xiangqin raised her head, glanced at her, and then looked at her in-laws with eagerness and anticipation, couldn't help laughing, and whispered, "There are a total of 2,358 yuan, 5 cents and three cents." ”

Chen Xiangqin's voice lagged behind, but no one spoke, silent, silent, still silent.

It wasn't until more than ten seconds later that Zhang Xiaoru looked dreamy and asked in disbelief, "Sister-in-law, you said we earned more than two thousand three hundred?" ”

"Yes!" Chen Xiangqin coughed lightly, knocked on the table, and looked at them, "Ahem, shouldn't there be applause or cheers at this time?" ”

"Good, good. Well done. Father Zhang finally recovered from the shock, smiled and applauded, and praised a series of praises.

"Whew!! It hurts. It's not a dream. Zhang Xiaoru pinched herself again, screamed twice, and jumped up with joy, very happy, "Oh my God! Oh, my God! We've made a lot of money! ”

"Xiangqin, you're really amazing, Mom looks at the money and thinks it's a dream." Mother Zhang said with a smile, her expression was indeed in a trance.

"This is not my credit alone, half of the money in this is earned by Xiaoru!" After Chen Xiangqin finished speaking, her face was solemn, "Dad, Mom, I have two important things to discuss with you." ”

"You say." Father Zhang also looked serious, and even put down the cigarette stick.

"I want to use some of this money to build a room for the sewing machine and the fabric. The house must have a large stove for heating, otherwise it will not be possible to work in winter. ”

"Just build a room, that's very fast, find two or three people and finish it in a few days. I'm going to find someone tomorrow. I heard that there is a big stove in the next village, which burns coal, and it is very warm, so I will get it. "Father Zhang naturally has no opinion, he has made so much money, it is no problem to build a floor if he wants, and the stove is also necessary.

"Second, I want to buy two more sewing machines and hire two people to come over and help make clothes. You have also seen that just me and Xiaoru can't do it if we are tired. ”

Chen Xiangqin has already had an idea for this recruitment plan, but she needs the capital to buy a machine, so she has never put it forward, and now that she has the first pot of gold, it is time to expand the scale.

"And who are you looking for?" Zhang's mother asked.

"Just look for it in our village. First of all, start with a good relationship with our family, who uses a sewing machine well, who can sew clothes, who has a stable temperament and a tight mouth, who will use it first. We can't pay too much, otherwise it will make people red-eyed. Make a piece of clothing, give five cents, work more, and get paid by the piece. ”

In fact, five cents is really a lot, a person, even if he only makes one piece a day, there are fifteen yuan a month, which is a huge amount of money in the eyes of others.
