Chapter 18 Sisterhood Cooperation

"Cousin, we can't make hairpins and hair rings tonight."

"Why can't you do it?"

Zhao Jingmei asked in confusion.

"We don't have raw materials! We used up all the duckbill clips we bought today, and the rubber bands and rag strips at home were all made into hair bands. Now there is nothing. I am a good wife and I can't cook without rice!"

Liuye shrugged, saying that it was difficult for him to deal with it.

Although she also thought about doing more and earning more money tomorrow.

But, after all the things were used up, she couldn't make it happen!

"Look at my memory, I forgot this one!"

Zhao Jingmei touched her nose and said embarrassedly.

"That... Ye Zi, you have worked hard today, rest early, wait until I prepare the things tomorrow at noon, and then come home. Then you continue to do it. In the evening, we will go to Huating Road to sell it."

"Cousin, don't you always stay in the factory for lunch? You're not afraid of sunbathing when you rush home at noon?"

The third textile factory where Zhao Jingmei is located is not far from the fifth textile factory. She has to rush home, which is only a ten-minute bicycle ride.

But the weather has been too hot recently, so she is too lazy to go home in the sun.

She was afraid that she would finally get whitened skin, so she would tan it in a few days.

Besides, it’s also very comfortable to have lunch in the cafeteria and chat with colleagues of similar age after eating.

"We are all going to make money, who cares whether to tan or not?"

Zhao Jingmei waved her hand, looking indifferent.

If she could save enough money to buy a commercial housing as soon as possible and tanned her into charcoal, she wouldn't care!

"Okay, then I'll think of new styles at home tomorrow morning. When you bring the raw materials home, I'll do it immediately."

Liu Ye was also very happy to see that Zhao Jingmei was so motivated.

A good partner can always arouse her enterprising spirit.

When one person makes money, how can two people be happy to make money together?

"Okay, let's discuss it like this!"

Zhao Jingmei responded readily.

...

The next day, Zhao Dagang, Feng Xiuqin and Zhao Jingmei went out to work early.

Zhao Jingsong also went to the factory's children's school.

Only Liuye stayed at home.

She used the pencils and writing books left by Zhao Jingsong to draw down all the hair rings and hairpins in her mind.

The drawing is not very good, but it is enough to understand the willow leaves.

Anyway, she didn't expect anyone else to do it.

The willow leaves were painting with concentration, time passed quickly, and it was noon soon.

"Yezi, open the door!"

Liu Ye was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door.

It turned out that my cousin Zhao Jingmei was back.

"Cousin, why did you bring up so many things?"

Liu Ye opened the door and saw Zhao Jingmei holding a lunch box in her left hand and a large cloth bag in her right hand. She was carrying a large cloth bag on her back, which was bulging and didn't know what she was carrying.

"I'm so exhausted!"

Zhao Jingmei strode into the house, put down her things, drank a large glass of water before she recovered.

"Yezi, I brought the meal back. Let's have a meal first, and we will start to do it immediately after we have a meal!"

Zhao Jingmei opened the lunch box and greeted Liuye to have a meal soon.

In her opinion, only after eating enough can we have the energy to do things.

"Okay! I'll have a meal now!"

Liuye only drank one bowl of porridge in the morning, and was using his brain the other morning, and his stomach was already empty.

After two cousins ​​quickly finished the lunch, Zhao Jingmei opened the cloth bag in full swing.

"Look, are these clips enough?"

When Liuye saw that the cloth bag was filled with clips of large and small sizes.

Not only one-shaped clips, duckbill clips, but also spring clips and shark clips...

"Cousin, where did you get so many clips?"

There are probably hundreds of these big and small!

"I have a colleague's brother who works in a plastic factory and has a production line that specializes in making small clips. I went there and bought it from him."

These days, it is indeed related to things to do.

If they want to buy it on the market, they will definitely not be able to buy so many styles of clips.

"And this, look!"

After showing Liu Ye the clip, Zhao Jingmei opened the huge cloth bag she had on her back.

“That’s too much…”

Liuye couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the things in the cloth bag.

It contains a full of colorful strips of cloth.

I couldn't see it when I was tied in a cloth bag before.

Now that Zhao Jingmei has untied it, it looks like a small hill.

"And there are rubber bands, do you see enough?"

Zhao Jingmei took out a large bundle of coils from her bag that she carried around and made a round rubber band.

"Enough is enough!"

So much material is enough for her to do.

"Cousin, these things cost you a lot of money! Tell me the price and I'll give you money now."

Liu Ye originally wanted to share the 31 yuan he earned yesterday with Zhao Jingmei and Zhao Jingsong.

Unexpectedly, neither of them was willing to ask for it.

Liu Ye wanted to hand over the money to his uncle and aunt again. She was embarrassed to eat, drink and live in the Zhao family for free. She had to pay some food for the Zhao family.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Dagang and Feng Xiuqin didn't want it either, and she also said that the money was earned by herself. The Zhao family's rules always mean that the money earned by the child is the child, so that she can save it herself.

The Zhao family didn't want this money, and Liu Ye thought that it would definitely cost money to buy raw materials by himself in the future, so he had to keep it himself.

Now that Zhao Jingmei has bought her so many raw materials, she should also give her money.

"No money is needed. I only charged five dollars for these piles of clips. As for these rags, they are all scraps from our textile factory. They are usually thrown away as garbage. The rubber bands are also from our factory, and they don't spend a penny."

Zhao Jingmei's backing to the third textile factory is good for the cool air. She can basically take all the things she needs for the willow leaves home for free.

"This is really great!"

This will greatly save costs.

"Cousin, I'll give you this five dollars."

Bag strips and rubber bands are not expensive, but hairpins cost money.

"Yezi, no, no! Don't give it to me, we agreed last night that we will do this hairpin and hairpin business in partnership, and we will earn money from you and I will get three."

Zhao Jingmei refused repeatedly.

Zhao Jingmei was counting on doing business with Liu Ye and making money to buy commercial housing!

"Okay! Then I won't give you this money."

Liu Ye nodded as if he was good at it.

"Cousin, it's getting late, let's start doing it now!"

After dinner, it was almost an hour. They planned to go to Huating Road to sell hairpins at night, so they had to fight every second and try to make more hairpins and hair rings.

"good!"

After Zhao Jingmei responded loudly, she immediately pulled the sewing machine out of the corner of the wall.

He picked up the small scissors again and skillfully helped cut off the thread on the rag strip.

As for the willow leaves, they quickly started to step on the sewing machine, sewed the rag into various shapes, and fixed them to the clip one by one.

The two of them worked together and within a short while, they made a lot of clips.
Chapter completed!
