From the picture to the final creation, for Liu Weichao, it is a process of realization.
Therefore, he wanted to see it with his own eyes. This was also the reason why he was waiting for Zhang Weijiang in the living room.
"No, I can handle it by myself. You can go about your own business!" Zhang Weijiang hurriedly started washing and said casually.
When Liu Weichao heard this, he knew that he had misunderstood, so he said directly: "I want to see the process of making clothes!"
"Oh?" Zhang Weijiang was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and said with a smile, "Are you serious about coming? Okay, then come with me!"
So, Liu Weichao and Zhang Weijiang went out to work.
It has to be said that Zhang Weijiang graduated a few years earlier than Liu Weichao and has much richer social experience.
But even so, the two of them were busy until dark, and then they returned to the rental house as tired as dogs.
Lying on the sofa, Liu Weichao couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that just making a dress would be so tiring! There are so many things!"
"You didn't expect it, right?" Zhang Weijiang smiled and said, "Isn't it much more difficult than writing code for you?"
Liu Weichao listened, nodded and replied: "No, of course writing code is much easier!"
After he finished speaking, while recalling his experience during the day, he said with emotion: "The tailor asked for six thousand yuan with one mouthful. He had one reason after another, which seemed reasonable to me. But, you cut it off as soon as you opened your mouth.
We paid half the price, and we cut here and there with him, and finally contracted the work and materials, and it only cost 2,400 yuan to deliver the goods in one week."
Zhang Weijiang listened, but before he had time to speak, Liu Weichao said again: "You said how much other tailors cost, saying that their prices are high; then you talked about fabrics and so on. He sounded very professional and cut off a lot.
Price! Yeah, there are so many ways to do it here!”
After hearing this, Zhang Weijiang sat up from the sofa and asked with an inexplicable smile on his face: "There are still many things! It is definitely more complicated than you think! Let me ask you, what else do you want?
Do you insist on doing what you do?"
For Liu Weichao, this is definitely much harder than writing code. Maybe he will just submit his resume and find a job!
At this time, Zhang Weijiang had such speculation in his mind.
But when Liu Weichao heard this, he didn't even think about it. He immediately shook his head and replied: "Do it! Why not do it?"
He thought very clearly in his mind that these are actually minor details. If you don't understand them, just learn them.
Core assets, that is, detailed and rich content, are the key!
After hearing this, Zhang Weijiang couldn't help but shake his head and said: "You, you really won't look back until you touch the south wall!"
After finishing speaking, he sighed: "But you are young and have the cost of trial and error. As long as the software development technology does not fall behind, then it will be fine!"
Liu Weichao listened but did not explain. Because he knew that if he did not tell the biggest secret, then the explanation would basically be in vain.
So, he changed the subject and asked Zhang Weijiang curiously: "How much money do you think this tailor can make?"
"If he doesn't cut corners, I estimate..." At this point, Zhang Weijiang thought for a moment, and then continued, "I think it might be about 1,800, of course, including labor. If he wants to cut corners,
If the fabrics are shoddy, then you will definitely make more money.”
After hearing this, Liu Weichao thought about it and said: "Based on normal terms, then he earns 1,800 yuan a week, which is only 7,200 yuan a month? It seems that the money he earns is not that much?"
Zhang Weijiang was speechless after hearing this, so he gave his little brother a popular science guide: "First of all, he definitely won't take a week to make that dress. It will probably be finished in half a week. I said a week just because he has other things in his hands."
Living is similar to being broad-minded and reserved for narrow uses.”
Having said this, he paused and then said: "Secondly, this tailor's skills are probably average. Didn't you notice that the first tailor I went to said they wouldn't take my job within a month?
And the price quoted is also high. For someone like him, the price is at least more than 10,000 yuan a month."
"Oh..." Liu Weichao listened and nodded thoughtfully.
However, Zhang Weijiang, being a talkative person, obviously didn't say enough, so he continued: "And do you think other industries can offer such high wages as software development? It's more than 10,000 or even tens of thousands of yuan a month, and it doesn't have to be particularly hard.
It’s ready to be planted!”
Liu Weichao laughed after hearing this and retorted: "Although the salary in the software industry seems to be relatively high, you have to see the intensity of work like 996 and 007. Why are programmers bald in the impression of others? This is the price
ah!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Weijia touched his forehead and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I don't have any signs of baldness!"
"..." Liu Weichao was speechless after hearing this, shook his head and sighed, "You are just on a business trip. You don't usually work overtime. You live a good life. How can you be bald?"
Not all those who do software development are 996,007, and they are also divided into work units.
In some workplaces, programmers are much less busy than salespeople.
Zhang Weijiang withdrew the hand that touched his forehead, suddenly remembered something, and said immediately: "By the way, Mingxiu's birthday gift is just a Hanfu with a cost of more than 2,000 yuan, which feels a little bit bad. Otherwise, I will give a complete set.
Let’s see if there are any suitable jewelry or the like, it would be best if we give them together!”
When Liu Weichao heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed: Yes, in addition to Hanfu, there is also a large piece of jewelry and so on!
Just like Hanfu, compared with other people of this era, I am a jewelry maker who owns the entire Ming Empire. There are so many designers, who dares to compete with me?
When he thinks of this, Liu Weichao feels that the future of his ongoing business is brighter!
Then let’s use this incident of Zhang Weijiang’s girlfriend as an experiment.
Go back and tell Emperor Chongzhen about this. If he is not good at it, isn’t there Concubine Tian Guifei? Others can do it too. Let them match it with some jewelry. You can also match it with several kinds of jewelry, send the photos to yourself, and then let Zhang Weijiang choose.
Thinking like this, Liu Weichao kept this matter in his mind and planned to tell him about it later in the evening when Emperor Chongzhen contacted him.
Because at this time in the evening, there should be a woman beside Emperor Chongzhen. Even if it is not Concubine Tian, but another woman, Emperor Chongzhen can still consult her!
Before the matter was determined, Liu Weichao did not mention this matter to Zhang Weijiang.
The two then went about their own business, he continued to design software, while Zhang Weijiang went to talk to his girlfriend on the phone again.
As Liu Weichao expected, Emperor Chongzhen really contacted him around nine o'clock in the evening.
