Rutang was so happy that she took her mother's hand into the house and told her mother the secrets inside.
Yu Yaoyang was left out by his wife. He curled his lips, tugged on the tie around his neck and complained:
"This thing is so harsh on my neck that it will make my neck sweat. If I stay there for a while, I will get prickly heat!"
Every time Yu Yaoyang goes there, he doesn't ride the donkey upside down. He also wears the custom-made clothes for his wedding, the shirt and tie, and the newly bought shiny big leather shoes, making him look like a big boss.
Not only that, he also borrowed a tobacco company bus from Accountant Wang of the tobacco company, and every time he entered the clothing factory in a car.
Create an impression for the leader of the garment factory, as if he has a background in a large state-owned enterprise and is not short of money.
This is what Rutang came up with.
Her family only has 5,000 yuan in capital, but they want to make goods worth 50,000 yuan.
This was what Rutang pulled out with an abacus. She was sure that she would have to smash so many of the first batch to achieve a blockbuster effect.
If you go to a clothing factory and tell them that you want to order goods worth RMB 5,000, you might be kicked out.
5,000 is a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but for a factory, it is just a small amount.
To produce clothing independently, you need to open a separate production line, and you also need to find workers to make patterns and make samples. From fabric procurement to opening the production line, you have to reach a certain quantity.
50,000 is actually not too much, but given the current financial situation of the Rutang family, they can only spend so much money.
Whenever a garment factory has an independent legal department, if they carefully analyze Yu Yaoyang's contract, they will feel that it is such a loss and it is impossible to agree to the contract. It is almost an unequal treaty.
It stipulates the obligations that garment factories should fulfill, restricting garment factories in terms of shipping time, product quality, confidentiality rules, etc.
However, there are very few terms binding Yaoyang, and the deposit is only 10%.
Anyone with any legal sense would not sign this kind of clause.
But this was the 1980s, and legal awareness was relatively weak. People in the clothing factory only paid attention to appearance. When they saw that Yu Yaoyang was well-dressed and had a car, they were fooled by him, thinking that Yu Yaoyang was not short of money.
To prevent the loss of big orders, even if you feel something is a little bit wrong, you are still willing to continue talking to Yu Yaoyang.
Today was the key point in the negotiation. Yu Yaoyang showed off his extraordinary talent for socializing. He chose the venue for the negotiation at the wine table and used the last bit of money left at home to buy two bottles of the best liquor.
I persuaded several people in charge in the factory to a stupor, made the factory director happy, and signed the contract in a daze.
That's why Rutang said that even if he couldn't sleep, it was the people in the garment factory who couldn't sleep. This contract was simply an unequal treaty.
Fortunately, she and Yu Yaoyang were not liars. If she and Yu Yaoyang had even the slightest bad intentions, the garment factory would be in trouble.
Of course, Rutang would not cheat the clothing factory. She was fully confident that this project would be a win-win situation. However, her family had limited start-up funds in the early stage, so she could only operate in this marginal way.
After hearing what her daughter said, Hao Mei was completely confused. Seeing Xiao Li on the side who looked indifferent, Hao Mei looked at her in-laws with admiration.
"Xiao Li, do you understand?"
"Not really." Xiao Li said very proudly.
"Uh... Then why are you so happy about that?" Hao Mei didn't understand her in-laws. She obviously didn't understand her as well as herself, but she looked very happy.
"I believe our family is Rutang. If she says there is no problem, then it must be no problem. Hey, where is Yangzi?" Xiao Li saw that her son hadn't come in for a long time.
"I'll go out and take a look." Rutang walked into the courtyard and saw Yu Yaoyang bending over with his back to the sink, and the sound of vomiting could be heard.
Rutang's heart twisted, and when she saw Xiaoyue standing at the edge, she asked worriedly: "How much did your brother drink?"
"I drank the two bottles of white wine I brought and ordered a box of beer. I originally wanted to share it with him, but he wouldn't let me."
"I drank so much..." Rutang's eyes became hot.
In order to help her realize her wish, he was really willing to go out of his way.
She wanted to go over and give him a pat on the back, but thinking that he might not want her to see what he looked like now because of his strong will, Rutang turned around and went into the house to pour a cup of mung bean soup that had been prepared in advance. She would give it to him when he entered the house.
To relieve hangover, squeeze tomato juice with gauze and add a little salt, which can help promote the decomposition of alcohol.
The primitive accumulation of capital inevitably has to endure these.
The slightly salty tomato juice was not very tasty. Yu Yaoyang only took a sip and wanted to put down the bowl. However, when he saw his wife's eyes were red and she was looking at him like a little white rabbit, his heart skipped a beat and he raised his head.
Drink it all in one gulp.
This is the taste of tomatoes, salt, home, and wife. This taste will accompany Yaoyang for many years. The long years combine struggle, protection, trust, and support, and they are engraved in the depths of the soul.
, he could hardly tell whether he liked the taste of salty tomatoes or whether he fell in love with his wife's unintentional tenderness.
Hao Mei stood at the door, watching the young couple sitting side by side on the small bench. He was drinking hangover soup, and she was looking at him with her chin propped up. Both of them looked like they had no worries. Hao Mei stood there,
I don't know whether I should continue talking.
Xiao Li didn't know when she appeared next to Hao Mei, smiling at her and shaking her head.
"Hey, we are just a little bit away from being a household worth ten thousand yuan. Now we are completely back to before liberation." Hao Mei was still worried about money and a little resentful of Chen Guilan.
If Chen Guilan hadn't suddenly appeared and disrupted the family's flourishing business, her daughter would still be earning hundreds of dollars a day.
The family suddenly went from the richest family in the street to a poor one. Hao Mei was only glad that she still had a few hundred dollars earned from selling food, which could be used to support her daughter so that her daughter would not suffer from poor food and drink during pregnancy because she had lost all her money in business.
not good.
Seeing Xiao Li just looking at the young couple in front of her lovingly, Hao Mei couldn't help but ask:
"Aren't you afraid that they will lose money?"
Hao Mei feels that her in-laws are amazing. She has experienced no less hardships than herself, but she is always smiling and optimistic. She treats her daughter well, not like a mother-in-law, but more like a biological mother.
"I'm afraid of losing money. Who doesn't come from a poor family? When his bastard father returned to the city, Xiaoyue was ill and I didn't have any money. If Yangzi hadn't risked his life to get money, I'm afraid his brother's life would not have been saved.
As a woman who was abandoned by her husband, Xiao Li understands best how a penny can drive a good man to death.
Hao Mei's heart skipped a beat. In fact, as a biological mother, she said she disliked her daughter's spending money. In fact, she was more afraid that her in-laws would dislike her. She told her in advance just to silence her in-laws. By asking this question, she also tested her in-laws' attitude.
Who else would worry more about their children than their own mothers.
As a woman who has never been out of the countryside, Hao Mei has limited experience, so she can only use this method to test carefully.
"Da Meizi, I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you nervous? I'm afraid of poverty, but I'm even more afraid of seeing my son unhappy. Look at Yangzi."
