Rebirth 1978, Wife, I won't go back to the city
Chapter 336 Kindness
If you want to improve your living conditions, you either have to go to the city and find a class, but it’s not that easy to eat commercial grain!
Without a city hukou, it won’t be your turn at all.
Besides, being a self-employed person is not something that everyone can do. You need to have a flexible enough mind.
Among the people Wu Pandi knew, she felt that Li Jingshen was the most capable and clever.
Now that Li Jingshen has started some clothing business, it will definitely not be wrong to let his sisters follow Li Jingshen!
As night fell, Wu Pandi received the ingredients, needles and thread needed to make hundreds of pieces of clothing from Li Jingshen.
Although there are a lot of these things, the task can be completed by taking them home and carefully sewing them together as required.
After all, the sisters in the family are all experts in needlework, and even the youngest, the fifth, has good skills, so for the second, third and fourth sisters, this is a piece of cake.
"Thank you, Third Brother. It's really troublesome for you to make a special trip to deliver it to me." Wu Panddi looked at Jiang Shu, who helped her deliver the ingredients to her doorstep, with gratitude, her eyes full of sincerity and gratitude.
Jiang Shu laughed heartily: "Haha, sister, don't be polite. You are also helping our brother-in-law. Just do your job well! I am not bragging to you. Our brother-in-law is a kind person. He never treats those who work with him unfairly."
Hearing Jiang Shu praising Brother Li so much, Wu Pandi felt more at ease. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, Third Brother, don't worry. I will definitely do my best. Otherwise... Third Brother, can you come in and have a drink of water before you leave?"
As he said this, he turned around and went into the house to pour some water.
However, Jiang Shu smiled, got on his bicycle, and waved at her: "No, no, sister, I have to go back quickly, my family is waiting for me to eat!"
After saying that, he pedaled his bike and gradually disappeared into the night.
After Jiang Shu left, Wu Panddi hurriedly called her sisters to come out and help move the accessories at the door.
When the younger sisters saw the bags of clothing accessories piled up in front of them, their eyes widened with expressions of astonishment on their faces. They had no idea how their eldest sister had gotten so many unpacked clothes.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and help move these things in! I have something to tell you!"
Wu Pandi and her sisters worked together to move bags of accessories into the house, and they were exhausted and out of breath.
Just then, a slight noise came from outside the house, attracting the attention of the neighbors next door.
The neighbor's name is Lin Yan. Wu Panddi and her family got to know her after moving in!
After hearing the noise, Lin Yan walked to the door curiously and looked out, then quickly walked into Wu Panddi's room.
When she saw the piles of sleeves and collars all over the room, she couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise: "Wow, how come there are so many sleeves and collars?"
Wu Pandi's face was filled with smiles as she happily explained, "Sister Lin, these are jobs our boss found for me. All we have to do is sew these things stitch by stitch. And our boss said we'll get five cents for each one we sew!"
"Five cents each?" Lin Yan picked up a set and examined it carefully, muttering to herself, "It doesn't look that difficult!"
Wu Pandi nodded quickly and agreed, "That's right! Look, there are a total of one hundred sets here. If we sew them all, that would be a full five dollars!"
"What? Five dollars?" Lin Yan was shocked by the figure and asked in disbelief, "Then based on this calculation, how long will it take you to finish all this work?"
Wu Pandi pondered for a moment, then replied uncertainly, "Basically, it'll depend on my second, third, and fourth children working together. I estimate it'll take at least four days to finish! After all, we don't even have a sewing machine at home, so all the needlework will have to be done slowly and by hand, so it won't be fast."
But after a careful calculation, Lin Yan said, "If I can complete one hundred sets in four days, that means I can do it at least seven times a month! I earn five yuan per set, so that's thirty-five yuan a month! Oh, that's almost as much as my monthly salary!"
After hearing this, Wu Pandi smiled and responded, "How can this be compared to what you, Sister Lin, earn? We only earn hard-earned money."
Lin Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, as if thinking about something important.
After a while, she turned to look at Wu Pandi and said seriously, "Sister, I have a suggestion for you! If you have some extra money, why not find a way to get a sewing machine? With a sewing machine, you sisters can take turns to rest, and the sewing machine can keep working non-stop!"
"According to my estimate, I can make about 200 sets a day, which means I can make a full ten dollars a day. In this way, it won't be long before I can even recoup the cost of the sewing machine!"
After hearing this, Wu Pandi couldn't help but feel moved and thought that this was indeed a good idea.
But then she looked troubled again, frowning and saying, "But to buy a sewing machine, we need industrial coupons. Where can we find such a thing?"
Lin Yan smiled nonchalantly and comforted her, "Don't worry, sister. This isn't the past. Nowadays, many things are not as strictly managed as before. As long as we have money, getting a few industrial vouchers isn't a difficult task at all."
"I... let me think about it again!" Wu Pandi pursed her lips and did not agree immediately.
Lin Yan didn't say anything more. She was willing to help Wu Pandi come up with this idea simply because she saw how pitiful it was for Wu Pandi to support so many younger sisters all by herself.
But no matter how pitiful Wu Pandi was, she couldn't interfere too much.
Some things should be left as is!
If she interferes too much, people will inevitably think that she is meddling in other people's affairs.
And if there are any problems in the future, she might be blamed.
Although she felt that Wu Pandi should not be that kind of person, she did not want to ruin the relationship between the two because of such a thing.
It took four full days to turn all the fabrics into clothes!
According to Li Jingshen's estimate, this amount of fabric should be enough to make 2,500 sets of clothes.
But in the end, only 2,400 sets of clothes were made, 100 sets less than expected!
In fact, this is understandable, because most people who sew clothes are not very familiar with the clothing production process, which leads to some losses.
