Chapter 268: It's time to get off work early
The operators inside quickly got busy, and there was a sound of "ping-pong" and "bang-la-la" pouring water in the room.
The operator at the head closed the door and came out, and said to Zhu Xiaohua: "When they come out with the results, so many photos, all of them have to change the ratio, but it's a big deal." If you get it wrong, these prints can cost thousands of dollars. ”
Zhu Xiaohua nodded in understanding.
More than 20 minutes later, a blue-clad operator came out with two photographic notes, and said with a happy expression: "Sure enough, according to the new ratio and debugging, the developed photos have better results." ”
He took the two photo notes to him, only to see that the figure on one note was slightly blurred, and his hair and skin looked hazy. The figure on the other note is clear and vivid, with hair visible.
Zhu Xiaohua and the operator were very happy.
The operator said, "Since there is no problem, let's print the photo according to the new ratio." ”
Zhu Xiaohua nodded.
The two sides talked a few more words, the operator returned to the darkroom, and Zhu Xiaohua turned to leave.
In the evening of the same day, Tang Yimin brought back more than 400 films, and more than 400 photos were taken in the photo studio. Combined, there are more than 900 of them. A total of nine thousand and twenty dollars were received.
Sister Zhu Xiaoyan gathered all the money and put it in a cardboard box.
Xiao Ding and Tang Yimin had a busy day, and their hands were numb when they took pictures. The two of them sat down in their chairs, not wanting to move.
These days, the two of them took pictures during the day and developed them at night, and after many days of continuous rotation, they looked a little haggard, and at a young age, they had deep dark circles under their eyes.
Tang Yimin had a lot of white acne on his forehead, his mouth was on fire, his lips were sore, and he screamed when he touched something hot when he was eating.
Xiao Ding is not much better, he has acne again, he has hair loss, his face is extremely pale, and he looks like he has lost too much blood.
Zhu Xiaohua beckoned his sister Zhu Xiaoyan to come over and help them gather the film in their bags together with the Jin brothers. Then take the film and go upstairs to the darkroom.
Xiao Ding got up from the chair, grabbed the film, and said, "Brother Zhu, don't care." Leave that to us. ”
Tang Yimin also followed: "Let's go develop the film." ”
Xiao Ding said: "These films have been taken off for too long, and they must be developed as soon as possible, otherwise these customers may have opinions if they wait too long." ”
Tang Yimin also agreed: "In the past, we used to publish photos every other day, but now we promise them that we will publish photos in three days." The backlog of photos upstairs would never have been developed for three days. ”
Xiao Ding shook his fist in the air and puffed up, saying, "Let's stay up all night tonight and try to wash it up for 400 photos!" ”
The two of them walked towards the backyard with the film, and as soon as they arrived at the door, Tang Yimin didn't see the threshold clearly, tripped under his feet, his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground.
Film spilled all over the floor.
Xiao Ding went to pick up the film, she bent down and squatted down, picked up the film bit by bit, and put it back into the box.
When she was done, she tried to stand up, but suddenly shook and squatted down again.
Sister Zhu Xiaoyan ran over and asked, "Sister Ding, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xiao Ding said: "Dizzy, just stood up suddenly, and suddenly felt dark in front of me. Let me squat down and slow down for a while. ”
Zhu Xiaohua felt that it was almost the same, and he had been working sleeplessly for several days, Xiao Ding and Tang Yimin were young, and their bodies were also in condition.
Zhu Xiaohua was glad that he reached a cooperation with Mr. Yao today and handed over the work of developing the film to the darkroom of the scenic spot again, otherwise his entire ID photo business would not be able to operate.
Zhu Xiaohua said: "There is no need to worry about developing photos. Starting today, like the three Kim brothers, you two will take pictures during the day and come back at night to have a good rest. ”
Xiao Ding and Tang Yimin hurriedly objected: "Brother Zhu, how can this be done?" Don't develop the photos, and give what to the customer when the time comes. We all promised in person that we would hand in the photos three days later. ”
Zhu Xiaohua smiled: "Photos will be sent over tomorrow." The darkroom has promised to continue to help us develop the photos. ”
Zhu Xiaohua told them about Mr. Yao, the leader of the scenic spot, who came to buy 2,000 boxes of film today, and the other party's promise to resume the photo washing business.
The two were overjoyed and asked in surprise, "Really?" ”
Zhu Xiaohua said: "If you don't believe it, go upstairs and have a look, the film in the darkroom has been sent to the scenic office by me." ”
The two got up and went upstairs to look in the darkroom, only to see that the ventilated room was full of photographs, and the piles of film negatives that had been placed in the corner cabinet were gone.
The cabinet was empty, and the whole drying room was restored to its original neatness. In the whole house, there are only black and white photos of the ropes hanging all over the house.
Looking at the empty drying room, the two of them were in a better mood.
The tasks and pressures that pressed on my heart dissipated in an instant, just like those disappeared films.
Zhu Xiaohua's mood was as relaxed as theirs.
Zhu Xiaohua said: "We cooperated with the scenic spot again, and they helped develop the photos, so that we could easily go into battle and concentrate on taking pictures." ”
Xiao Ding nodded heavily: "ID photos, art photos, wedding photos, we still have a lot of business to expand." ”
Tang Yimin said: "I haven't taken art photos for a long time, and I feel that my hands are a little itchy again. I'm looking forward to the day when I took art photos. ”
Zhu Xiaohua asked them to rest early and go to the darkroom tomorrow morning to get the photos back. The two nodded in agreement.
Zhu Xiaohua can finally get off work early, he wants to go home, try his sister Zhu Xiaoyan's cooking skills, and then enjoy his younger brother Zhu Xiaoming's "Ming's" massage techniques, and then sleep well.
After arranging everything, Zhu Xiaohua locked the door of the photo studio, let Zhu Xiaoyan sit in the back, and the two rode home on motorcycles.
At this time, it was just dark, and it was almost eight o'clock at night.
People who returned late walked on the sidewalk in twos and threes. Zhu Xiaoyan saw a candy gourd seller pushing a bicycle on the side of the road, and walked forward with a depressed expression.
She asked Zhu Xiaohua to stop the car, ran forward and bought two strings of sugar gourds, and stuffed it with six cents for the man. And then ran back.
Zhu Xiaohua laughed at her: "How old are you, and you still eat children's snacks?" ”
Zhu Xiaoyan handed one of the strings of sugar gourds to Zhu Xiaohua and said, "Brother, we have money now." This snack is still affordable. Besides, I think that man is quite pitiful, and he is still selling things on the street at such a big night. When we buy him two strings of sugar gourds, we are helping him.
"He has made money, he is happy, and his family will have a better life."
Zhu Xiaohua nodded, picked up the sugar gourd, sat in the car and ate it.
After the two finished eating the sugar gourd, Zhu Xiaoyan saw that the man hadn't left yet, so she ran over and bought a few skewers, saying that she would take them back to her younger brother and share them with the family.
Zhu Xiaoyan pinched the sugar gourd and got into the car, clutching the sack behind her with the other hand.
It was full of cash notes that I received today.
