Chapter 348: I Listen to You (4 more)
A hundred taels?
Is this still a small goal?
Gan Jinxiu only thought that Gan Lin was joking, "One hundred taels, how is it possible?" At most, it's only two months of heat, and when the weather gets cooler, you don't need straw hats. Not to mention a hundred taels, if I could earn five taels of silver, I would already be very happy. ”
You must know that she used to weave straw mats and sell them, and she could only earn two or three taels of silver at most in two months.
If you can earn five taels of silver, you will already double your income.
Gan Jinxiu is not greedy, she just wants to make her two children live better.
Gan Lin smiled and said: "Sister Jinxiu, you believe me, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, you will definitely be able to earn a hundred taels of silver." ”
But now it's useless to just talk about it, you have to take action.
"Let's not talk about that, I'll teach you to weave a straw hat first!"
The two went to sit down in the pavilion, and Gan Lin began to explain the steps and tricks of weaving straw hats to Gan Jinxiu.
Gan Jinxiu has weaving skills, and her brain is not stupid, so she let Gan Lin teach her hand by hand, and she slowly got started.
When I knitted my first straw hat, I was still rusty, and the braided hat looked a little rough.
When she knitted her second straw hat, she slowly learned some tricks, and then she got better and better.
In order to make this straw hat sell for a good price and prevent it from being easily learned, Gan Lin pondered it for a while and asked Gan Jinxiu to make some tricks on the straw hat rock.
For example, embroider some catchy verses or some simple lace to make the straw hat look elegant and attract some wealthy guests.
Gan Jinxiu's brain is flexible, and she can understand it at a glance.
However, she is illiterate, but she knows how to embroider, and the embroiderer is very good.
Gan Lin said: "You can embroider, I can write, I will write for you, and when the time comes, you can embroider it." ”
As she spoke, she went back to the house to find a needle, and then found some brightly colored threads, and said, "Sister Jinxiu, you can embroider one for me first." Once you're up to date, you'll be ready to do it at home. ”
"Good!" Gan Jinxiu took the needle and thread, and when she saw Gan Lin writing a few lines on the paper, she carefully looked at the strokes, and then began to embroider.
Gan Lin wrote: Red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring; May you pick more, this thing is the most lovely.
She thought for a moment and said, "Sister Jinxiu, just embroider a few words on a straw hat." Anyway, in this Chenqiao Town, there are not many people who are literate and literate, and many people just look at the embroidered words and think that this hat is elegant. Also, if you are really literate and like this verse, you may buy four straw hats at a time to make up a poem. Moreover, if we buy multiple tops at a time, we can give appropriate discounts, so that people who buy them feel that it is cost-effective! ”
This is known as bundled marketing.
Gan Jinxiu felt that what Gan Lin said was reasonable, so she nodded and said, "Sister Lin, I will do whatever you say, you have a smart brain, I will listen to you." ”
Gan Lin smiled a little embarrassedly.
In fact, she is not proficient in business or anything, but she feels that this method should be useful.
The two worked hard all afternoon, and did not call it a day until it was dark.
Gan Jinxiu has basically mastered weaving and embroidery, she took a few poems written by Gan Lin, and prepared to go home.
"Sister Lin, then I'll make it up at home tomorrow, and I'm coming to you if I don't understand something." Gan Jinxiu said a little embarrassed: "It's really too troublesome for you today." Maybe you don't like the small profits of this straw hat, but I want to tell you one thing first, this straw hat will be sold at that time, and we will divide the money we earn equally. In fact, I also took advantage of your light, you taught me to weave hats, and taught me to make tricks, your credit is the greatest, I am at most selling some strength, spending some time. ”
