Chapter 320. Come to relatives
When she came back, she discussed with Zhou Qing Bai about retired workers like old Madam Xu.
Zhou Qing Bai made a note in his heart.
Now the dumpling shop had basically stabilized, there was basically no major problem. Taking advantage of Zhou Kai's position of having no class to attend, Zhou Qing Bai went to negotiate with other factories.
When Lin Qing He came back from work, Zhou Qing Bai had already placed an order and placed the order according to the amount given by his wife.
One hundred sets of dresses from the first batch of styles had been added.
But there wasn't only this style, but also the second style and the third style. Zhou Qing Bai went to the factory and ordered 500 orders each.
Have to say, this was a very large order for that factory. Because it was their first cooperation, the attitude of the factory was still very good.
However, in the future, that incident mostly will reappear again.
So this year, it was the best choice to buy a batch of sewing machines in the south and open a workshop by themselves.
If they do it alone, they don't need to look at anyone's face. Also, they will be able to make first-mover money with new styles of clothes in the future.
Lin Qing He went to the first garment factory she cooperated with seven days later. After taking away the last batch of clothes she ordered, she never cooperated with that factory again.
The manager of that factory didn't keep her. Within a few days, other models of that dress appeared on the market.
No need to ask, it was definitely copying her clothes.
If this was in future generations, one can still defend their rights. But currently, there was no place to file a complaint.
So Lin Qing He had learned her lesson.
But when new styles come out, she'll increase the order for the first batch and make the first-mover money. Whatever happens afterward, got nothing to do with her.
In a blink of an eye, it entered April.
This month, spring was at its brightest. Several styles of Lin Qing He's dresses and clothes were on the market. The business was on fire.
Basically, the clothing store sold a few dozens of sets of clothes every day.
Originally she wanted to get Hu Zi set up a street stall. So far she can only let it drop. She'll talk about it when she has her own sewing workshop.
Hu Zi was arranged to help move the goods and tracking the purchase in the shop as well as being responsible for guarding the entrance to boost Er Ni and Xu Sheng Mei's courage.
Lin Qing He completed the lesson preparation that night and took out the ledger.
Lin Qing He didn't manage these ledgers. They were all managed by Zhou Qing Bai. Every day he creates an inventory sheet to calculate the accounts.
"Earn that much?" Lin Qing He uttered in surprise.
The clothing store’s business was very good. The minimum sold each day was 20 or so pieces of clothes. If there were a lot, it can reach 30 to 40. Even 50 can be achieved. In the middle, there was one week of no stock.
Still, the profit for a piece was about four yuan. Even with seven days of no stock last month, the profit of the clothing store was as high as two thousand or so yuan last month!
Lin Qing He was surprised was no small matter.
"It's very profitable." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
His current dumpling shop business was also very good. But even the monthly income of 300 yuan got a limit. It was difficult to break through 300. After all, the margin was really very thin.
However, three hundred yuan was quite a lot. Still, he didn't expect that the clothing store opened by his wife would make such a huge profit.
"Do you still need to be a profiteer (by reselling)?" Zhou Qing Bai raised an eyebrow at his wife.
"It's okay to continue for two or three years. After these two or three years, others may not want it even if you resell." Lin Qing He stated.
It was definitely necessary to buy and sell during the summer vacation because there will be less demand in the future. It was a must to take the profiting opportunity now to make more income.
Until now, she hadn't seen any shadow of her dream courtyard dwelling.
Moreover, the current clothing business wasn't long-term. It will be common in the future.
So she can't just give up other income channels just because the profits were good now. The reselling during summer vacation every year was more than enough to surpass one year of the family's income.
"Xiao Mei's shop has been settled. It's not too far from our property. About 30 minutes walk away." Zhou Qing Bai brought up.
"Have you seen it?" Lin Qing He said after hearing this.
"Took a look. It's pretty good." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
However, the shop at the current location had not been rented out. Zhou Qing Bai rented it for ten yuan a month. When his brother-in-law and sister arrived, he would let them pay the rent by themselves. For now, it was no problem for him to pay first.
Lin Qing He said, "Catch a chicken and make a soup tomorrow."
"Okay." Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
Lin Qing He drank chicken soup at noon the next day. She didn't want to move, so she got Zhou Kai to deliver the chicken soup.
Old Wang didn't come to eat today, so one portion was sent to him. And another sent to Wang Li, the pregnant woman.
As long as there was soup, Lin Qing He will not omit Wang Li's share.
Wang Li was very embarrassed and said to Zhou Kai: "It's not necessary to give it to me."
"My mother said you will give her a godson or goddaughter for her in the future. We won't suffer a loss." Zhou Kai heartily responded.
Wang Li smiled. When she finished eating, washed it and then handed it over to Zhou Kai.
At that time, the intercom outside sounded out.
"Teacher Lin Qing He! Teacher Lin Qing He, if you hear this, please go to the main entrance's waiting room. Please go to the main entrance's waiting room."
Zhou Kai was stumped: "What's the situation?"
"Maybe someone is looking for your mother. Let's go and have a look." Wang Li said.
"I can go out by myself. Aunt Li, please go back and rest." Zhou Kai said as he took the food box and came out.
When he got to the waiting room, he saw Zhou Liu Ni waiting there.
Zhou Kai frowned immediately.
"Brother Da Wa!" Zhou Liu Ni's eyes lit up. She immediately waved her hand.
"This is your family's child, isn't it?" There was a policeman next to Zhou Liu Ni. He looked at Zhou Kai and asked.
"It's my cousin from my second uncle's side." Zhou Kai nodded: "Fellow police officer, what is going on?" It can't be what he was thinking!
"It’s your second uncle’s kid, so it’s considered family. This little girl didn’t know the way when she arrived in the capital. She said she came to find relatives. However, she is still clever. She knew to look for us. So we brought her here.." The fellow police officer answered.
"I'm sorry to have caused trouble to you." Zhou Kai took a deep breath and directed to the police.
"Since she is a relative, then I will hand her over to you. But you have to pay attention in the future. She is so young and unfamiliar with the place. You can't let her run around." The police said.
"I understand." Zhou Kai nodded and took note.
Once the fellow police officer left, Zhou Liu Ni happily ran up to grasp Zhou Kai's arm.
"Liu Ni, does your family know that you came by yourself?" Zhou Kai took a step back and said indifferently.
