Chapter 603
For Li Wu and Li Qi, their tasks are relatively simple, which is to study. As long as they study hard, they can ignore other things for the time being. That is, when they are resting, they will help their family do farm work.
Li Er and Li San don’t have to go to the school. In addition to studying with their brothers, they also need to "recognize" with the female husband with their girls, and supervise them on both sides to prevent them from falling too many others.
However, it was because they didn't have to go to a school that they had a lot of worries. As long as they completed the day's literacy task, they could do their own work, and it was simple.
Only Liu Kang is a little troublesome. Who made his age stuck in the middle and was stuffed into the school by Bian Pingling?
In addition to studying in a school, he could not put down his work, and he worked hard to do it with all his heart.
Fortunately, he was smart and he learned some words secretly when he ran to the town. Now he started learning it, which is not particularly difficult.
The girls at home are more worry-free. They don’t need the imperial examinations. They just need to follow Mrs. Ye’s progress and learn the rest of the time can be spent on things they are interested in. For example, Li Liumei likes to go into the kitchen and keep the kitchen inside and out clean. With the help of several sisters, she is completely anxious to prepare the food that the villagers need to purchase.
In addition to giving some of the money earned to Bian Pingling as a "public", he can also save some savings.
Bian Pingling got it. She was not using it for public use. The expenses of several children's schooling, some fragmented expenses at home, investment in other people's businesses, etc., were all worried about.
With her actions, although the family's expenses have increased, what is surprising is that the family's living standards have not plummeted and they can be completely turned over.
Think about it, there are so many loads that come to the door for wholesale every day, so you can spend some money on it.
When Liu Kang ran out, he also worked with others to do some business, some invested in money and some invested in technology. Even if a business couldn't make much money, the sum of several would be a little bit more money.
If you have money to come in, you can save a little more, but you can hold on.
The girls at home are not luxurious either. Daily consumption is all for the family. The house is ready-made. Except for changing clothes and tuition fees all year round, the cost is not much.
Recently, Li San's wooden craftsmanship has also been rising and he has started to start doing business.
For example, make a cabinet for the owner, make a table and bench for the owner.
Next door to the largest business, there is a family who wants to marry his daughter and prepare to get a dowry. If you want to think better, you have to spend money to go to the town to get a job, unless the family is in good condition and generally cannot afford it. If you hire a carpenter in the village, the quality is fine, but don’t think about the tricks, you can only use it and not look at it.
But now it is different. Now a Li San emerges.
Before and after the disaster, whenever Li San was idle, he would think about the book "Lu Ban Collection" given to her by his sister-in-law. If you can't make big things, you can use hairpins, wooden bracelets, and small wood carvings to practice. After a few months, these things alone will have a large box.
In addition to the walker, he also made a rocking chair, crib, Trojan horse, etc. for Jiang Xiaotu, and placed it in the yard. He could see any one when he came in.
Which one of the children born at the same time as Jiang Xiaotu, who saw it and didn’t want to get one back?
Originally, carrying the loads and going in, there were so many people, and there were just two or three people who wanted them, and Li San got together for a month.
Even the hairpin, small wood carvings, etc. were spread out by Li Simei and Bian Ermei in the dustpan in the yard and sold them to the load-carrying people, and asked them to resell them to the villagers in the villages.
In other words, in addition to the most profitable Li Liumei and Liu Kang in the family, the most profitable thing is Li San's craftsmanship.
Bian Pingling also specially left him a miscellaneous room in the backyard so that he could put things on.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect that the third brother made is so easy to sell. I had ordered several walkers. If the third brother hadn't had time to do it, I would have wanted to take on a few more business." Li Simei was happy.
Although the things were made by the third brother, if they were sold through her hands, she could get a commission.
My sister-in-law said that the girl at home cannot be short of money. She doesn’t have money to give it to everyone, so she finds ways to open source for everyone and let everyone save money by themselves. Just like Li Liumei’s food business, the profits will be divided into three parts, one for the third brother, one for the public servant, and the other for the person who sold it.
Don’t underestimate this one or two articles. Most of the things at home are sold through Li Simei and Bian Ermei’s hands. Even if the profit is thin, it cannot withstand the amount. He has saved up several stagnant money in a month.
Last year, everyone was worried about not being able to fill their stomachs. They didn’t want to make the New Year. Everyone in their families began to have extra money. How could they be unhappy?
Bian Pingling smiled and said, "You are almost incest. Even if you want to take care of your job, it depends on whether your third brother can eat. It is very tiring to make wood there every day. Even if you work, don't forget to let him rest. If you are not in good health, it will be useless to make more money."
"Hehe...Sister-in-law, what do you want to say? I have discussed with my third brother a long time ago. He just needs to make some small things with the scraps of furniture. If you take too many big jobs, you can do less of this kind of small handicraft. Our family does not lack that little money, and you can take it as long as you can. If you don't take it, we will think about the technology. When the technology is better, we will only make more money in the future."
"Remember to ask Liumei to make more delicious food for the third child at night, so you can't lose your health."
"I understand, sister-in-law." Li Simei stopped the embroidery work in her hand and asked Bian Pingling to see how she embroidered it.
At the beginning, Mrs. Ye didn't let them learn too complicated things, so she made purses, handkerchiefs and so on. These things can not only be used for practice, but also for the work that was done after practicing, if it was okay, it could also be sold in the embroidery shop.
The price is lower, anyway, it is a practice thing. Just don’t get dusted at home if you sell it.
"It looks good. It seems that this female gentleman has not been in vain. The embroidery you embroidered now is much better than a month ago." Bian Pingling looked at the purse made by Li Simei and exclaimed.
Compared with Li Liumei, Li Simei, who can sit still, obviously embroidered better. She has embroidered it in just over a month. She is not as good as other people's professional embroidery girls, but she can embroider better than ordinary village girls in the village.
On the contrary, it was her own who had studied for so long, but she was not as good as those native natives.
Alas... this thing depends on talent! It seems that she does not have talent in this area.
Li Liumei stretched her neck and glanced at her fourth sister's, immediately expressed disgust: "Sister-in-law, you didn't see Cuihua embroidered, she embroidered it's beautiful."
Liu Cuihua, who was sitting next to her, suddenly blushed and said embarrassedly: "I... I am not well embroidered. I am not as fast as the fourth sister, and I have not finished embroidery yet."
Li Liumei snatched the embroidery bag from her hand and handed it to Bian Pingling: "Sister-in-law, look, is Cuihua better than my fourth sister? We are still learning what bamboo, leaves, Cuihua has started to embroider. Look at her embroidered flowers, are they very beautiful? Even Mr. Ye praised Cuihua for being talented and will definitely become a big shot in the future."
After being praised like this, Liu Cuihua's face turned redder: "Sister Six..."
