On this day, Wang Ji's tailor shop still hung up a batch of suspender jumpsuits that were made overnight last night.
Wang Youcai, who was sitting on the reclining chair, yawned and narrowed his eyes, as if he could see the scene of these clothes being sold out later.
Thinking of the money that has been continuously poured into his pocket, Wang Youcai feels that the hard work is worth it!
Just when Wang Youcai was dreaming of making a fortune, a woman walked over aggressively, and it seemed that the visitor was not good.
"Where's your boss? Call your boss out!" The woman said in a very bad tone.
The clerk who sold the clothes subconsciously looked in the direction of Wang Youcai. Wang Youcai realized that something was wrong and immediately waved to the clerk.
The clerk who understood the wink could only say to the woman, "Our boss is away now, what's the matter with you?" The
woman got even more angry when she heard this, and threw the clothes she was holding in her arms, and said in a high voice:
" What's the matter with me? I'd like to ask what kind of ragged clothes you sell in your store. You can't wear them after wearing them once
!" He crossed his waist and said, "I brought all the clothes, you can compare them yourself to see if they have shrunk!" The
clerk picked up the jumpsuit thrown by the woman just now and compared it with the new clothes she just made. Sure enough I saw that the washed clothes have shrunk a circle, which is obviously shorter than the new clothes.
When the customer who was planning to buy it saw this, he immediately dismissed the idea.
"What! This dress has shrunk? I won't buy it if I don't buy it!"
"Man, I don't want this dress anymore, please return the money to me!"
"..." The
tailor's shop suddenly shouted. , the customer who just paid the money immediately asked the clerk to refund the money.
The clerk was a little panicked and insisted: "This, this, this may be a problem with this one."
After saying this, the clerk seemed to have found the backbone, and said, "Also, who knows if you have done anything on your clothes?" When the
woman heard this, she got angry: "What do you mean?
" You've already sold so many pieces of this dress, so you're the only one here looking for trouble." The clerk said again.
The woman originally came here to reason, but now she was beaten up, and her whole body was shaking with anger.
The people around even listened to the clerk's words, and echoed: "The clerk is right, the clothes are so hot, and no one else has found any problems. I'm afraid this woman is not here to deceive people!"
" Yes Possibly, maybe it was because the clothes were selling so well?"
Hearing everyone's words, the clerk suddenly raised his head, looked at the woman looking for trouble with disdain, and said, "It's alright, alright, hurry up and leave. , don't delay our business!" The
woman akimbo was about to scold, and at this time, several more women walked over with clothes in their hands, and their faces were bad.
"What are you all doing around here?"
"A woman said there was something wrong with the clothes she bought from this tailor shop, and she's arguing! Are you watching the fun?"
"Look at the fun, the clothes I bought have shrunk too , I'm here to find the boss's theory!"
"..."
Seeing that there were a few more people who came to Wang Youcai because of the shrinkage of their clothes, the woman at the head came confident and asked coldly, "I'm still alone now. Is there a problem?"
"Where's Wang Youcai? Call him out to my mother, what kind of clothes are you selling, I want a refund!"
"Wang Youcai must give us an explanation today!"
The person who came to ask for trouble with shrunk clothes More and more, Wang Ji's tailor shop was soon surrounded by water, and various scoldings were heard endlessly.
The clerk who bought the clothes was shoved, and a fight was about to happen.
"Wang has a wealthy man, come out for me!"
"Profit merchants, lose money!"
"..."
Xia Bingbing ran over excitedly to watch the fun when she heard that Wang Ji's tailor shop had an accident.
She was wearing a suspender jumpsuit made in Li Yulan's shop. She looked beautiful and temperamental. Someone noticed it soon and couldn't help but ask, "Your clothes are so pretty? It's a bit like this one?"
When Xia Bingbing heard this, she raised her brows and said, "How can the ragged clothes made by Wang Youcai compare to what I wear!"
She was right. The clothes Xia Bingbing was wearing were bought by Wang Youcai. One in the sky and one in the ground.
First of all, the material is different. The suspender jumpsuit on Xia Bingbing's body is light and breathable, and it looks like a fairy, not to mention how beautiful it is. The version is also good, it looks very good, with a thin waist and long legs.
And the suspender jumpsuits in Wang Ji's tailor shop are not so comfortable to wear. After one wash, the fabric shrunk tightly, and the fat and body defects are fully exposed. Can't wear it out!
"Then where did you buy it? It won't shrink too, will it?"
"Of course it's from Xiaolan's tailor shop. I wore this dress after washing it once. Do you see any shrinkage?" Xia Bingbing said. .
"Xiaolan's tailor shop, I know! I haven't seen her house sell it for the past few days? And didn't Wang Youcai say that this style of clothes is only available in his shop?
" Said: "No, no, no? No, there are still people who don't know that Wang Youcai stole the design of Xiaolan, and shamelessly preemptively make clothes and sell them?"
After speaking, Xia Bingbing couldn't help but sneered again. : "Steal it and steal it, that is, drawing a tiger is not an anti-type dog, and you make such a scumbag!"
When the person who bought the gadgets heard Xia Bingbing's words, his face was a little unsightly, he glanced enviously at the beautiful clothes on Xia Bingbing's body, and cursed Wang Youcai: "This Wang Youcai is really immoral, no, I have to find him. Return the money, it's a few dozen dollars a piece, it hurts me to death!"
"You've all been here all morning, haven't you? Have you seen Wang Youchai? Didn't he run away?" Xia Bingbing Guessing maliciously.
The person listening slapped his thigh and said, "Don't talk about it, it's really possible! Hey, a few people, let's go to Wang Youcai's house to block him!
" In the tailor's shop, he said to the sewing
workers who were still making clothes, "Hey, why are you still making clothes? There is something wrong with the clothes. Wang Youcai may have run away. Isn't your work in vain?" Listen, I'm in a hurry, their wages haven't been settled yet!
They immediately stopped their work and looked anxiously to find Wang Youcai for wages.
...
Wang Youcai did run away.
When the first woman came to find fault in the morning, he realized that something was wrong—there was something wrong with that batch of cloth, and Li Yulan gave him yin!
Wang Youcai was anxious and angry. When he hid in the dark and saw more and more people coming to ask him to lose money, he gritted his teeth and took all the money in the store and went home to prepare to run away with his wife and children.
It is impossible to lose money anyway.
But when he was about to run, his son didn't know where to go, which made the two of them look for a while.
After finding their son, the couple packed their things for a while, and when they came out, they happened to be bumped into by a group of people who came to his house to arrest him.
Wang Youcai secretly said that it was bad, and he was about to run away.
But how fast can he be dragged with fat all over his body? It was quickly held down.
Everyone wanted to run away when they saw Wang Youcai, a deflated bastard, but after giving him a beating, they tied the bruised-nose Wang Youcai back to the tailor shop.
Under the crusades of the crowd, even if he was reluctant, Wang Youcai was forced to pay the money for the clothes and the wages of the sewing workers.
This time, Wang Youcai lost everything. Not only did he lose all the money he made from selling suspender jumpsuits, but he also used his original savings. But even so, his money was still not enough. A lot of stuff from his store was taken away, except for the batch of ready-made suspenders and fabrics.
Wang Youcai was about to cry when he saw his shop that had been looted.
Tian Feilong, who witnessed all this, patted his little chest with a look of fear on his face, and said to himself, "Hey, it really is, it's terrible!"
"You do
n't know how funny Wang Youcai's expression was that day, and the fat all over his body was shaking!" Xia Bingbing told Li Yulan and the others vividly.
Li Yulan's order volume in the store has soared now, and she can only listen to Xia Bingbing while making clothes.
Hearing that Wang Youcai received retribution, everyone felt a sigh of anger and felt extremely relieved.
"What about Wang Youcai's batch of clothes? He won't sell it to other people who don't know about it, right?" Liang Xiaoshi asked suddenly.
Liang Xiaoshi's worries are not unreasonable.
If Wang Youcai bought that batch of suspender jumpsuits from an unsuspecting out-of-towner, he might be able to sell them and make a fortune. .
"I really want to say this!" Xia Bingbing winked, "Wang Youcai is really planning to sell that batch of goods to other places, but it didn't work!"
"Why?"
"Because someone went The Bureau of Industry and Commerce reported Wang Youcai, and then the people from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce came to the door and directly confiscated Wang Youcai's batch of clothes and pulled them out to destroy!"
"Oh my God! Really?"
"Really! The clothes were burned in the waste rock yard on the outskirts of the city. Wang Youcai cried so hard that he finally passed out." Xia Bingbing said in high spirits, "but he passed out. No one sympathizes with him, it would be nice not to spit on him!"
"Sister Xiaolan, did you already know that the fabric would shrink?" Xia Bingbing looked at Li Yulan with admiration.
Li Yulan nodded and was about to explain, when she heard Xiang Danhong whisper, "There is also a problem with that version..."
Li Yulan glanced at Xiang Danhong and said with a smile, "You are very sharp."
Xiang Danhong blushed a little embarrassedly.
Afterwards, Li Yulan explained it to them.
The batch of fabrics used by Wang Youcai did have a shrinkage problem, but it was not that serious, mainly because of the pattern.
When the pattern was made in front of several apprentices that day, Li Yulan deliberately adjusted down the data
. Clothes made according to this pattern did not have any problems at first, but after adding the shrinkage of the fabric, they would become It became very tight and even couldn't wear it at all...
Speaking of which, it was only Wang Youcai's greed, otherwise it wouldn't have caused such a big loss.
It's just self-inflicted
...
After such an incident, Wang Youcai's family can't stay in S City anymore, and they don't know where to move to.
Li Yulan's tailor shop is still open normally.
Today, the fabric market.
The owner of the fabric shop that sold the batch of cloth to Wang Youcai gave Li Yulan a thumbs up and said, "You are really amazing, this girl!"
Li Yulan smiled helplessly and said, "Uncle Zhang, you don't have to give too much, you make money from Wang Youcai. Not a lot."
Boss Zhang shook the fan and stopped talking.
Because Boss Zhang's house has many styles of fabrics and reasonable prices, Li Yulan's tailor shop often picks up goods from him, so the two know each other.
Before, it was Li Yulan and Boss Zhang who were able to get through the air, and this was the only way to slap Wang Youcai.
Li Yulan picked out a few new pieces of cloth and took them to check out.
While calculating the money, Boss Zhang sighed: "Oh, now it's your tailor shop making money!"
"The tailor shop doesn't have to come to you to buy cloth, Uncle Zhang, your business here is also good." Li Yulan said.
"Oh, I didn't mean me." Boss Zhang waved his hand and continued, "It's an old friend of mine."
Li Yulan waited for him to continue.
"My old friend is a dead brain." Boss Zhang cursed first, then continued, "You know the Red Star No. 3 Garment Factory in our city, right? That old friend of mine is the director of this garment factory. Boss Zhang took a sip of water and continued: "
You know, since the reform and opening up, the above has not issued tasks and indicators for these factories, and let them run their own business and take care of their own profits and losses, but my old friend is a good businessman. ? I managed to support this garment factory for so many years, and I posted a lot of money to go in, but now I can't hold it anymore, and I am thinking about contracting the factory out..."
"Oh, his brain is dead. , how can you compete with these tailor shops, you can open it now!"
"Uncle Zhang, the competitors of the garment factory are really not our tailor shops." Li Yulan said, "Don't look at us, our tailors. How many clothes can the shop make?"
"That's true." Boss Zhang nodded in agreement.
But Li Yulan became interested in the garment factory.
During this time, Li Yulan was also thinking about the way out for her tailor shop.
Now the tailor shop is very profitable to make money, but the scale is too small, only three people are needed, and the output is small and the shipment is slow.
It is also very common for some people who can't wait to go to other tailor shops, not to mention Wang Youcai...
And Li Yulan's tailor shop is very different from other tailor shops, she is actually more Preferring to make clothes, the tailor's shop is also more like an ultra-small factory with only three workers.
Although there are very few ready-to-wear clothes now, Li Yulan has no prejudice against ready-to-wear. On the contrary, she believes that the market potential of ready-to-wear is huge in the future, and it is not impossible to even replace tailor shops.
The main problems of ready-to-wear on the market today are: old-fashioned styles, ill-fitting, high prices...
What if these problems could be solved?
Li Yulan was a little moved, looked at Boss Zhang and said, "Uncle Zhang, you just said that the Red Star No. 3 Garment Factory is going to be contracted out?"
"Yes?" Boss Zhang nodded.
"Have you found someone to take over now?" Li Yulan asked again.
"No, the garment factory is losing money every year, how can it be so good!" Boss Zhang said with a wave of his hand.
"Uncle Zhang, do you think it's okay if I go to contract?" Li Yulan expressed her thoughts.
Boss Zhang was stunned, looked her up and down, then clapped his palms and said with a smile, "Hey, don't say it, if you go, that's fine!"
"That's fine, Uncle Zhang, when will you be with your old man? My friend said, I will go to see the situation of the factory at that time."
"Hey, hey!" Boss Zhang responded several times and said excitedly, "I will go to my old friend tonight, maybe tomorrow. I can go to the factory!"
"Then I will thank you, Uncle Zhang." Li Yulan said with a smile. "What, on the contrary, I
should thank you for my old friend!" Of course, Li Yulan couldn't just make the decision to contract a garment factory for such a big thing.
Before going to bed at night, she talked to Gu Shen.
"I want to contract a garment factory, what do you think?" Li Yulan said to Gu Shen lying on the bed.
Gu Shen had been habitually massaging Li Yulan by now. Hearing the movement of her hand, he asked her, "Why do you suddenly have this idea?"
Li Yulan patiently analyzed him when she saw him ask such a question.
Gu Shen's focus was on the other direction. He said, "You mean, when you contract the garment factory, you won't have to make your own clothes?"
Gu Shen felt that Li Yulan was so tired of making clothes every day. There is some opinion, but he dare not say it.
"Yes, but the clothes must be handed over to the workers below, and I am responsible for designing the clothes and other things in the factory." Li Yulan said.
"Then contract!" Gu Shen agreed immediately.
Li Yulan: "???" Are you so cheerful?
Gu Shen looked at the speechless expression on Li Yulan's face and raised his eyebrows, thinking of something, and continued: "Oh, yes! Does it cost money to contract a factory? Anyway, my money is with you, you can use it yourself."
Li Yulan : "..."
She hummed angrily, then raised her chin and said, "That may not cost you money."
Seeing the expression on Gu Shen's face, Li Yulan pointed Pointing to the cabinet, he said, "Go and look at the passbook that's there."
Gu Shen Yiyan went over to find the passbook, and when he saw the numbers on it, Gu Shen couldn't help looking at Li Yulan in surprise, and asked subconsciously: "You earned all this?"
Gu Shen usually just takes the money back, and doesn't care how Li Yulan spends her money, let alone how much Li Yulan earns.
So when I saw it suddenly, I was a little scared.
Li Yulan was very satisfied with the expression on Gu Shen's face at the moment, she threw a pillow at him proudly, and said proudly, "Otherwise? Are you the only one allowed to make a lot of money?"
Gu Shen took the smashed pillow with a smile, put the passbook back, then strode over to hold Li Yulan on the bed, leaned over to kiss him, and gave a low smile: "Of course not, Director Li.
" The words were whispered in her ear, and her back felt a little numb.
Li Yulan struggled to push him away: "Get up!"
However, the people above didn't listen. Instead, they tightly clasped her hands, and her movements became more presumptuous.
"Would you like me to accompany you to take a look at that time?" the man said in a vague voice.
Li Yulan snorted: "No need."
...
Boss Zhang's actions were really fast, and he found Li Yulan the next day and said to take her to the garment factory to see.
The location of the Red Star No. 3 Garment Factory is not very good, and it is already close to the suburbs. The scale of the garment factory is not too large, with about forty or fifty people working in the large factories in front of them.
As soon as Boss Zhang and Li Yulan arrived, a man in his fifties with white hair on his temples was greeted in the factory.
The man is Dong Fengmao, the director of the garment factory.
It may be that Boss Zhang gave Dong Fengmao a vaccination in advance, so when he saw Li Yulan, Dong Fengmao was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted, shook hands with Li Yulan enthusiastically and said, "Miss Li, hello hello.
" Director Dong, hello." Li Yulan also greeted with a smile.
"Then, let's go for a walk in the factory first." Dong Fengmao said a little bewilderedly, "I will introduce you to the situation in our factory."
Li Yulan also had this intention, so she readily agreed.
Li Yulan walked around the factory a few times behind Dong Fengmao, listening to him talk about the situation in the factory over the years.
After listening and reading all the way, Li Yulan felt a little puzzled. The equipment and production process in this factory are quite good. It is reasonable to say that they should not lose so much?
Until she saw the clothes piled up in the warehouse, Li Yulan immediately dispelled her doubts.
There is no other reason, this clothes really has nothing to do with good-looking...
In the era of planned economy, clothing factories don't have to worry about sales at all, and they go directly to the supply and marketing cooperatives or state-owned shopping malls and they are done.
But now it can't be done. The garment factory has to run its own business to sell the clothes.
The business of the Red Star No. 3 Garment Factory has run away, but the clothes are either outdated or too ugly, even if they want to sell them, they can't sell them.
Li Yulan took a look and found that most of the black, blue and gray clothes in the 1967's were rustic clothes with no design and shape. There were also a small number of strange clothes with hot eyes, which made Li Yulan not only suspect that this was the case. It was designed with feet... After holding
back, Li Yulan couldn't hold it back, she picked up one and asked, "Who designed this dress?"
Dong Fengmao blushed when he heard Li Yulan's question, and felt embarrassed. Said: "We don't have anyone in the factory who can design clothes, so I just tried it..."
Li Yulan: "..."
It turned out to be you! With all due respect, this is not as good as those rustic clothes before!
I can only say one thing: the design is very good, and it is not allowed to design again next time!
However, Li Yulan could understand Dong Fengmao's anxious mood, and she didn't say anything after all.
All the way down, Li Yulan is quite satisfied with this garment factory.
Several people came to Dong Fengmao's office and talked about the specific matters of the contract.
Dong Fengmao is not a conscientious person, and the two had a pleasant talk, but before the final decision, Dong Fengmao put forward a request: "I hope the workers of the garment factory can continue to work in the factory, they are all here. I've been working for most of my life, and it's really—"
"Yes, no problem." Li Yulan readily agreed, making Dong Fengmao's words stuck in his throat.
Li Yulan originally intended to keep the workers, after all, there is no need to recruit workers again.
"But I'm going to tell you the ugly story. If these workers don't obey the management, I'll let them go without mercy," Li Yulan said.
"Of course." Dong Fengmao nodded hastily.
"Also, I hope you can stay, Director Dong." Li Yulan looked at Dong Fengmao and said.
"I, this, do I stay too?" Dong Fengmao was incoherent.
"Yeah." Li Yulan nodded affirmatively and said with a smile, "You are very familiar with the situation in the factory, and I have to ask you to help! But if you stay, you will not be the director of the factory."
Li Yulan said a joke, Dong Fengmao couldn't help laughing, with tears flashing in his eyes, he nodded and said, "Hey, good!"
Dong Fengmao was really reluctant to stay in this clothing factory for most of his life, so it is true that he can continue to stay here. Thank you very much.
Li Yulan also saw this, so she made this decision. After all, after all the way, Dong Fengmao is a really good person. Having him in the factory might really help.
His only shortcoming is that his design taste and appreciation level are really worrying. Li Yulan secretly decided that Dong Fengmao must not be allowed to approach the design field in the future!
Li Yulan and Dong Fengmao had a very pleasant conversation, and the conditions were quickly settled.
However, the contracting factory is not a trivial matter, and it cannot be determined. Some necessary procedures still have to be done.
The formalities of contracting the garment factory are being carried out in a leisurely manner.
Li Yulan also just took this opportunity to deal with other things.
The first thing to do is the tailor shop.
Now that there is a clothing factory, there will inevitably be more things to do, and Li Yulan does not have so much energy to open a tailor shop at the same time.
So on this day, Li Yulan and the two apprentices talked about their plans to close the tailor shop.
"That's the way it is. In the near future, I will dispose of everything in the tailor shop. What are the plans for the two of you in the future? If you want to open your own tailor shop, I can also help you." Li Yulan said apologetically.
After all, it was a master-disciple session. Li Yulan said generously, "If you want, I can offer you a low-cost tailor shop."
Liang Xiaoshi and Xiang Danhong were a little stunned when they heard the news.
When Liang Xiaoshi came to be an apprentice, it was true that he wanted to open a tailor shop in the future, but after staying in Li Yulan's shop for so long, his thinking changed.
Liang Xiaoshi knew his weight, and he knew that even if he opened a tailor shop, he could not be like Li Yulan.
After thinking about it seriously, Liang Xiaoshi looked at Li Yulan and asked in a low voice, "Sister Xiaolan, can I continue to follow you?"
Li Yulan was stunned, and when she saw Xiang Danhong also blushed, she said, "Sister Xiaolan, I want to follow you too."
"You all think so?" Li Yulan asked.
Both apprentices nodded quickly.
"Okay, you can follow me to my garment factory." Li Yulan agreed after thinking for a while, but she couldn't help making a joke, "You are not afraid that the factory will not be well run and will not be able to pay you wages. ?"
"We're not afraid!" the two said in unison.
The tailor shop was closed, and Li Yumei's work had to be arranged.
Li Yulan said to Li Yumei almost without hesitation: "Sister, you can follow me to my garment factory."
However, Li Yumei shook her head and refused.
She said softly, "Xiaolan, I won't follow you."
"Why?" Li Yulan asked in surprise.
