Lu Xiaozhen nodded seriously: "Xiao Qin is right, the master leads us in, and everyone practices. I remember when I was learning tailoring, one of my senior sisters was very good at it, and the clothes she made were very neat. An error occurs.
She can also change her clothes on a whim. Not to mention, after her transformation, the clothes look much better. "
Qin Shuangshuang asked her: "What about you? If I give you a style of clothing, can you make it according to it?"
After tilting her head and thinking for a minute, Lu Xiaozhen replied without confidence: "I think it's okay, right?"
"Then I suggest you go to the town and open a tailor shop that specializes in new styles of clothes."
After listening to Qin Shuangshuang's suggestion, Lu Xiaozhen looked sad: "I'm not afraid of opening a tailor shop, but where can I find new clothes?"
"Haicheng!" Qin Shuangshuang felt that this person was too honest, "Go to the department store in Haicheng to see what styles of clothes are popular this winter, and copy them back.
When you're done, hang it up at the door of the store and tell people it's a new model from Haicheng. Calculate how much it costs to make the clothes you made, excluding rent, water, electricity, food and drink, and add as much as you plan to earn.
The most important thing to remember is that it cannot be more expensive than the ones in Haicheng Department Store, otherwise it will not be sold. It’s a little bit cheaper and everyone is happy to buy it.
They have to pay for a round-trip ticket when they go to Haicheng to buy it, but you don't need to. If you don’t believe it, you can go to Haicheng Department Store to see if it is exactly the same as yours. "
As soon as Liu Shuying arrived at the door, she heard Qin Shuangshuang's words. She felt that the girl was capable, so she casually gave Sister Lu a good idea.
There is only one sister-in-law Lu in the family home who can make clothes. She used to ask her to help make new clothes for the children at home.
"Ah? Can it still be like this?" When Lu Xiaozhen heard this for the first time, she felt that a new world had opened, "Xiao Qin! If I copy someone else's clothes, will they come to trouble me?"
"Won't."
Qin Shuangshuang shook her head firmly. People in this era did not have much awareness of intellectual property protection. Even if they knew that the style of the clothes had been copied, it would be useless. They didn't know how to pursue it.
Besides, Lu Xiaozhen is only a small tailor who runs a tailor shop, who can find her here?
"You just copy it back. As long as the fabric is different and the style changes a little bit, it's yours."
"Really?" Lu Xiaozhen's eyes lit up, "Xiao Qin! You still have a way. If I really succeed, I will thank you very much!"
Liu Shuying came in and answered: "Thank you very much, sister. She is a very smart person. It's a good way to find fault with us."
Wu Yingying heard what she said and quickly asked Qin Shuangshuang: "Xiao Qin! What about me? What can I do?"
"Don't you say you can cook food? A national highway is being built not far from our army. You have to be willing to endure hardships, so you made lunch boxes at home, packed them in thermos buckets and sent them over to sell. You can sell them for lunch. If someone eats it, you sell it at night. If no one eats it, then think of another way."
"Lunch box?" Wu Yingying heard about this thing for the first time, and she looked confused, "What is a lunch box?"
"That's right! We haven't heard of it."
"Xiao Qin! Can you be more specific? It feels like a new term. It's the first time I've heard it said."
Liu Shuying's eyes lit up: "Sister! Do you mean to ask Sister-in-law Wu to cook the rice at home, fry the vegetables, and pick them out to sell?"
"Yes! I think this is a feasible way." Qin Shuangshuang explained to everyone, "Lunchboxes are simple meals. Prepare up to three dishes for each meal, one meat dish and two vegetarian dishes.
Cook a big pot of rice and pick it up. Someone wants it. How much does it cost for a portion of rice with two vegetarian dishes? How much does it cost for one meat dish and one vegetable dish? How much does it cost for one meat dish and two vegetable dishes? "
After saying this, everyone understood it.
"Oh! Isn't this just the canteen? It's just that the canteen was moved to their construction site."
Qin Shuangshuang: "..."
Has the lunch box become a canteen? It seems okay to say so.
He Xiaojuan immediately spoke to Wu Yingying: "Sister-in-law Wu! You can't do this work alone. How can you do so much food by yourself? Count me in. How about we join forces?"
Wu Yingying is a cheerful person and immediately agreed: "Okay, I really can't do it alone. It will be much easier if you help me."
"It's good." Lu Xiaozhen encouraged them, "It's much faster if the two of us work together, one sells the food and the other collects the money, and washes the dishes."
Seeing that all three of them had found a way, others became a little anxious, especially Chen Xiangmei. The men in her family were of lower rank and less paid, but they had many children, three of them.
The first two were twin daughters, and the second was a son. They were both born in their hometown before joining the army. Studying in junior high school in the town is no less burdensome than Liu Shuying's family.
Liu Shuying found a way to earn money to support her family. She also wanted to find a job that she could do, but she didn't know what to do.
"Comrade Xiao Qin! What do you think I'm suitable for?" Chen Xiangmei stood up and asked cautiously.
"Didn't you say you knew how to tie a broom?"
"Yes! The brooms I tie are very durable. As long as you give me the materials, I can tie them very well." Chen Xiangmei smiled sheepishly, "All the ladies in my hometown can tie brooms."
Qin Shuangshuang wondered: "Then you haven't thought about tying brooms for sale? If we don't have the materials in town, how can we not have them in Haicheng? If that doesn't work, we can go to Haicheng to find a broom tying factory and bring the materials back for processing!"
Chen Xiangmei was stunned by Qin Shuangshuang's words. She lowered her head and said in embarrassment: "I don't know a single Chinese character. I went to Haicheng and I can't even tell the difference between southeast, northwest and northwest."
The other military wives also bowed their heads, all frustrated.
"Yes! We are illiterate and don't dare to go to Haicheng casually for fear of getting lost."
"I have suffered the disadvantage of being uneducated in my life. If I were literate, I wouldn't be unable to understand everything at this time."
Qin Shuangshuang didn't think so: "It's not too late to start learning how to read and write now! Don't recognize too much. Go home and let your children teach you one character a day. You will know thirty characters in a month."
There are three hundred and sixty in one year, and the commonly used Chinese characters can basically be learned in one year. Sisters-in-law! No matter what you do, you must have perseverance and perseverance.
We are military wives and no longer rural women. Aren’t we just literate? What's so difficult? As long as you don't die, accept death.
We strive to become illiterate within one year. We don’t need to be able to write every word. We just need to write our name and the address of the unit. How did I improve my English? I just gritted my teeth and practiced hard, and I got good at it. "
In order to encourage military wives to become illiterate, Qin Shuangshuang told lies without blinking an eye. Anyway, everyone knows that she comes from a rural area. What else could we do if she didn't say so?
You can't say she came from time travel, right? Someone has to believe it.
