After eating, the two went to the photo studio to take pictures.

At this time, the cameras used are all Seagull brand, and there are two models to choose from: 135 and 120. But the 120's camera will produce better images and a wider format.

Lu Changzheng naturally chose the best shot.

With a 120 camera, a photo is 0.43 yuan, with a 6*6Cm photo, plus a 3 cents, if you zoom in, you get 1 yuan.

The two took two group photos, one sitting and the other standing. In addition, Su Mo was also taken separately, and the three Lu Changzheng were washed by one, and the group photo of the two was also enlarged.

Take 3 photos, 1.29 yuan, 3 additional washing, 0.9 yuan, enlarge 2 photos, 2 yuan, a total of 4.19 yuan.

The tablets can be taken after three days.

[PS: These prices are based on the price of Changsha City, Hunan Province in 1971, if there are children's shoes in the Northeast to know the local price, welcome to correct. 】

After taking the photo, the two went back to the commune, ready to go to the commune workshop to ask about making quilts.

Lu Changzheng wanted to ask Lu Xiaolan about the situation, but Lu Xiaolan asked for leave and was not there, saying that she was going to run errands with her mother.

Lu Changzheng knew that he was going to talk about things that he didn't like.

Lu Changzheng inquired about the situation with other salesmen, and the other party saw that he was Lu Xiaolan's brother and an officer, so he was very enthusiastic to take the two over.

With an acquaintance, the two soon went to the collective workshop and found the production director of the workshop.

This workshop is somewhat similar to the handicraft workshop of later generations, divided into several shops, including carpenter's shop, blacksmith's shop, oil mill, sewing shop, cotton house, etc., gathering craftsmen from all walks of life in the commune.

When there is work in the workshop, these craftsmen come to work in the workshop, and the workshop pays the workers a daily wage. When he was not working, he still went back to the production brigades to participate in agricultural production labor.

When the farm is not working, the workshop will also produce some things as planned or take over some work in large factories. Some of the products produced are sold to the members of the company, and some are sold to the purchasing station.

In this way, it not only generated income for the commune, but also solved the problem of peasants' difficulty in shopping to a certain extent, and at the same time increased the income of some families, and revitalized the economy of the commune to a certain extent.

After Su Mo told the production director of the workshop about his needs, the production director immediately said that there was no problem.

"Su Zhiqing, don't worry, this year's new cotton has just been delivered, and all of it will be used for you with the latest cotton." The director of production smiled, as long as he could generate income for the commune, he would be happy.

"Our workshop is twenty or thirty years of master, the craftsmanship has nothing to say, the quilt made is soft and warm, the mattress is also moderately soft and hard, breathable and warm, lying on it is like sleeping on the clouds."

Su Mo: ......

It doesn't have to be so exaggerated!

"I must have believed in the craftsmanship of our commune masters. The hard director calculates how much money it costs. Su Mo smiled.

"Don't work hard, don't work hard, serve the people. Su Zhiqing needs 2 double quilts weighing 7 pounds and 2 double mattresses weighing 3 kilograms, right? ”

"Yes."

"2 quilts with 14 catties of cotton, 2 mattresses, with 6 catties of cotton, a total of 20 catties of cotton. The cotton of the supply and marketing cooperatives is sold for a dime and five pounds by ticket. The secretary said that our workshop is to improve the lives of members, and the members of the company do not need tickets for the cotton used in the workshop, as long as the price is followed. ”

"Su Zhiqing came to our commune as an educated youth, so he is naturally a member of our commune. A pound of cotton is 1.15 yuan, and 20 pounds of cotton is 23 yuan. ”

"4 cotton tires, 7 catties of manual fee of 1.5 yuan, 3 catties of manual fee of 1 yuan, a total of 5 yuan of manual fee."

"Cotton money plus manual fees, a total of 28 yuan." The production director said while writing a note to Su Mo, "You can come and get it in 3 days." ”

Su Mo gave the money, took the note, and asked, "Can the cotton clothing workshop do it?" ”

The production director was stunned.

In the countryside, they all bought cotton and cloth and went back to make it, although there was no such business before, but it is not impossible to do it.

The sewing club uses a sewing machine to make it, which is naturally better than hand-sewing.

"Serve the people, the people are in need, and naturally they can. However, you need to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to pull the cloth yourself. ”

"Okay, thank you, Director."

*******

On the way back to the brigade, Su Mo silently calculated today's expenses in her heart.

The post office spent 6.48 yuan, the supply and marketing cooperatives 62.65 yuan, and the commune workshop 28 yuan, for a total of 97.13 yuan.

In one day, 100 yuan is almost gone.

Therefore, money is not spent properly.

Fortunately, everything that costs a lot of money can be used for a long time, at least for a few years.

The most important quilt is solved, and all that remains is the cotton clothes.

It takes about a pound of cotton to make a cotton coat for adults, and half a pound for cotton pants. Three people make one set each, and it should be enough to prepare five catties of cotton.

And then there's the fabric.

With a figure like hers, it is okay to make a dress with ten feet of cloth. Mo Yurong's figure is about the same as her, and Su Tingqian is taller than them, so she should be two feet more.

The parents' cotton clothes are made of coarse cloth on the outside, as long as they prepare about 9 feet of cotton cloth as the lining. Plus the ten feet she wanted, she also needed a 19-foot cloth ticket.

She remembered that in this era, there was a cloth ticket subsidy for registering marriage, and she didn't know how much.

Today, Lu Changzheng wore a military uniform and did not go to the black market, and he had to go again another day.

Because he was carrying a basket of things, Lu Changzheng deliberately took a small road that was not many people to return to Zhiqing Point. After moving the things to the door of Su Mo's house, Lu Changzheng prepared to go back. There are no adults at home, so he has to go back and watch his father.

"Daughter-in-law, I'll let my mother come over tomorrow to propose." Before leaving, Lu Changzheng also made a special explanation.

"Okay! But I'm going to work tomorrow, and I won't do it until after I get off work. Su Mo said.

Lu Changzheng frowned, "You are just sick, don't go, don't care about that bit of work." ”

"I've taken a few days off, and it's not good to go back." Su Mo said.

She mainly wanted to take the opportunity of pulling peanuts to absorb some wood energy.

"There's nothing bad about it, I can afford to raise my daughter-in-law." Lu Changzheng issued a declaration of hegemony.

"It's okay, it's just peanuts, it's not tiring. I don't want others to say that I'm going to marry the secretary's son, and I won't even do my job. ”

"Then don't be tired, I'll help you pull it out tomorrow." Tomorrow, I will help my daughter-in-law pull it out, and then I will help my mother pull it out.

After Lu Changzheng left, Su Mo moved his things back into the room.

First take out Ma Xiaojuan's things and put them on her bed, then take out the toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, soap, soap, toilet paper, and put them away, as well as chicken cakes and fruit candy. Then he took out a rather retro cup from the space and used it as a cup for brushing his teeth.

Other things, especially the enamel basins, enamel jars, and thermos with the word "Xi" on them, were still placed in bamboo baskets and covered with coarse cloth.

She plans to borrow Ma Xiaojuan's enamel basin these days, but she doesn't really use it anyway, she uses the plastic bucket in her own space when she enters the bathroom.
