Chapter 206: The Clothing Project
At first, she didn't understand why Bai Xia only wanted women, but then after listening to what she said, her heart suddenly turned around.
She saw that the girls in the village had no clothes to wear, and wanted to do good deeds.
Otherwise, whoever hires someone to do things will be given clothes, and he is willing to let people pay for it.
Not to mention that those babies can do less at home, and the income of two cents a day, that is also an income.
They must be reluctant to let the big guy pay for the children's clothes, but if the children can earn two pennies a day, it will be different.
If there are many children in a family, there must be seven or eight children, and those over the age of seven must have four or five, and if several babies are added together, it is an adult, and there must be a full ten cents.
Not only that, but they can also get a white coat, and they can also help the family with some other things.
It's a lucrative deal.
"Don't be in a hurry to be happy, this dress can be distributed, but you also know that there are two girls in my family, and they don't know how to make clothes, they say that they are making clothes, but they are just the fabric of the clothes, and the sewing work still has to be done by themselves at home."
"Of course, I'll only count the money for the fabric."
Bai Xia saw that the village chief's daughter-in-law was happy, and couldn't help but give her a preventive shot.
"What should be, what should be"
It's not that the big guy doesn't know how to do it if he doesn't have clothes, but he doesn't have cloth.
It's nice to have fabric.
"Also, you have to tell the big guys, in order for everyone to pay back the fabric, this time the cloth can only be provided burlap."
The conditions of each family will not be good, and they are willing to let their children come out, but they also want to let them earn money, the first day is easy to meet the two pennies, and the back earns more money, I am afraid that they will dislike them for earning less.
Bai Xia's purpose is to let these girls go out of the house, not to let them be disliked by their families.
"Coarse cloth is good, big guys wear coarse cloth."
The village chief's daughter-in-law did not dislike it at all.
After Bai Xia left, he went to inform everyone one by one to inform everyone of the good news.
The people in the village were originally a little unhappy that the village chief's daughter-in-law sent her eldest daughter-in-law to Baixia to raise pigs, but after hearing the news, they immediately became happy.
There are many girls over the age of seven in the family.
One village, dozens of them.
After listening to Bai Xia's request, they were too late to be happy, where would they dislike it.
They were all born in a belly, and everyone was distressed by the girl.
It's just that I don't have to eat, I don't have to wear, and of course I still have to eat tightly.
Didn't you see that the boy only has one or two pieces of leftovers, running around the mountains with a bare ass?
"Is this boy okay?"
In the end, there are still people who feel more sorry for the male baby, and when they heard that Bai Xia could release materials when he was working, he couldn't help but ask.
The village chief's daughter-in-law was suffocated, and frowned and said: "I haven't asked about this, you report the situation of the female baby first, and I will roughly estimate the number, so that I can reply to the other side, and the matter of the male baby, I will talk about it after asking."
After the families left, the village chief's daughter-in-law counted the number of people and went to Bai Xia's house to find her.
Bai Xia personally received her, there are many girls in the village, dozens of them over the age of seven, after listening, she nodded, and went directly back to the house to get a lot of burlap.
One by one, the gap is bigger than a pinhole.
"All the fabric is put on your side, and you have to go to your door to measure these children and let them cut the fabric."
The village chief's daughter-in-law took the fabric and said that it was not hard.
asked Bai Xia again if he could plant radish seedlings this time, and the boy would be okay.
Bai Xia thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"If you have a chance in the future, you can let the male baby come, this time the female baby will come first"
Burlap is sold in her conversion pool for a penny and a half, that is, one hundred and fifty wen a horse, and one piece of cloth can make two adult clothes, and the child is young and not tall, and can make about four bodies.
The price is not expensive.
But when it was given to the people of the village, it was calculated at three pieces of silver.
On average, a horse earns half.
Spread it evenly over the four children, and if they did things neatly, in eight or nine days, the clothes would be earned.
The reason why the village chief's daughter-in-law stared at the amount was because he didn't want them to measure too much cloth.
Nowadays, people like to make clothes bigger, and wear them for a few years, and the big ones are worn for the small ones, and the small ones are worn for the smaller ones.
If this continues, the children at the bottom will basically not be able to wear new clothes.
There are even children who even have diapers that have been used by previous children.
The fabrics were all distributed, and soon, the village chief's daughter-in-law took her granddaughter to measure the children's measurements, and each family was in full swing to cut new clothes.
In just one day, the girls in the village walked out of the house.
All of them were very thin, but their faces were full of happy smiles.
The girls under the age of seven looked at them with longing and envy, and wanted to go out of the house too, but they lowered their heads in disappointment when they thought that they had no clothes to wear.
"Sister is good, my mother said, the money that Sister earns is saved to buy clothes for you, and when Sister Ah earns enough, you can go out just like Sister A"
"Sister, what about me? I want to wear new clothes too" The younger brother, who was a year younger than the girl, approached his sister and shouted that he wanted it too.
The girl glanced at the hall and saw that the adults were not paying attention to this side, so she pulled the boy aside and said in a low voice: "Brother is a boy, and he has to earn money to buy clothes."
The little boy tilted his head in confusion, wanting to ask why the boy had to earn his own money to buy clothes.
But he understands how to make money by himself.
Families were in a state of euphoria, especially the girls.
Early the next morning, they went out, first came to Bai Xia's house, kowtowed to Bai Xia's house, and then went to the field to plant radish seedlings.
There are adults with them, and they learn seriously, and they quickly learn how to plant.
The woman is responsible for digging the nest and pulling out the seedlings, while the children are responsible for laying the seedlings and burying the soil.
Jinxi overseer.
Looking at the mountains of women and girls, her expression was a little trance, Miss was really too kind.
The new linen looked dusty too, but there was hope on everyone's face.
At the end of the day, they had completed even better than the goal set by Bai Xia at the beginning.
Under such circumstances, the merchant carried the burden and entered the village.
Bai Xia sat at home, busy drawing in his hands.
It is not possible to paint mountains and rivers, but simple architecture is difficult for her.
She painted a factory, a weaving factory, and she saw that many people's fields in the village were so barren after they were finished, and she thought of two directions, one was to plant pigweed, which was the vegetables she had seen in her previous life to feed pigs, and the other was to grow hemp.
Hemp is good for survival, and you can plant some of it if you find a field stalk.
Let the big guys plant it first, and then buy a loom to come in and let the big guys weave.
First weave linen cloth to practice, then weave cotton cloth, and then to dyeing, cable, step by step, so that the people in the village have jobs and earn money.
Of course, farming can't be delayed.
However, she didn't have any vegetable seeds for feeding pigs, so she had to let Li Xiuyuan send someone to find them.
