After returning home, Jin Shu started making lace and cloth patches non-stop.
Such repetitive and tedious work made her sit up with ease.
In this way, she bought lace around the town for five days. On the sixth day, a stall appeared next to her stall, filled with colorful lace and cloth patches.
Xiao Wang inquired about it for a while, and then came back angrily.
"Even the aunts in the village make a lot of lace to sell. It's really abominable."
Jin Shu nodded calmly.
"It's okay, just pack up your things and go back after selling them."
Different from the previous two days, the lace of these two days was not sold out until the afternoon.
After returning home after selling this time, Jin Shu told Xiao Wang.
"Just take a rest these days, there's no need to sell it."
"Ah, not selling anymore? Aren't all the customers taken away by those aunts?"
"There aren't many customers left for them, it'll be fine."
The town is only that big, and the number of girls who can afford to buy lace is even more limited. The amount sold in these five days is enough for the girls in the entire town and even the surrounding towns to use for a long time.
This thing is not a consumable. If you buy one, it will last for a long time. If you think about it, the market should be saturated.
Jin Shu has read a lot of books on sales recently and learned a lot of professional terminology. Some truths can be understood if you think about it carefully, but not everyone can see the form clearly.
For example, those ladies in the market only started selling when the heat was over. The tailor shop owners who sold scraps sensed business opportunities and began to increase prices. They had to spend a lot more on raw materials, let alone holding the same items. materials, the quality of the products is greatly reduced.
Xiao Wang sighed.
"Well, I've made more money these days than I make in a year. It just so happens that the autumn harvest is coming to an end, so I have to be busy for a while."
"Well, work hard."
The iron rice bowl cannot be thrown away easily.
After the autumn harvest, the weather got colder obviously. Jin Shu went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought herself a knitted sweater. It was pure white and very thick. Paired with a pair of denim trousers, Jin Shu, who was already tall and well-proportioned, looked even more... Elegant and refined.
In addition, I bought a pair of shoes for each of my three younger brothers.
There were three brothers, the younger one wore what the older one had left, and the older one wore what others didn’t want. When it was Jin He’s turn, the soles of his shoes fell off after taking two steps.
When the three brothers saw the three pairs of new sneakers in front of them, they jumped up with excitement.
One sister calls her closer than her own mother.
Jin Shu didn't understand, it was just a pair of shoes, why should he cry like a ghost and jump up and down like a monkey in excitement?
She just happened to see it when she was buying clothes for herself, and she happened to have a photographic memory of the three brothers' shoe sizes and prices.
It’s not expensive, so I bought it casually.
Putting on the new shoes, the three brothers couldn't wait to kneel down and kowtow to Jin Shu.
Especially Jin He, who has never worn new shoes at the age of ten. Even the old shoes are always the wrong size. They are either too big and don't fit her feet, or they are too small and are too tight. This is the first time in her life. Someone bought him new shoes that fit his feet.
Jin He cried so much that when Zhou Yanzhu came back, he thought he had been beaten by his brother again. He was about to teach his son a lesson when he saw the new shoes on his feet.
"Mom, if you are not busy recently, accompany me to apply for admission. I have already prepared the tuition fees."
"Are you ready? Your dad and I have money, and we are planning to take you there when we are done with our work these days."
Jin Shu shook her head.
"You should return this money. I earned some money from my business, which is enough to pay for two years of tuition. I want to finish high school."
"Recite it, you must recite it, and you can recite it as long as you want it."
The school the original owner went to was far away from here.
If you want to study, you have to rent a house in the Shu has already prepared all the money, and she does not need to worry about money in a short time.
Of course, if you want to live a good life, this little money is definitely not enough.
"How about signing up tomorrow?"
"No, don't worry."
It's already too late now anyway, it doesn't matter if it's ten days and a half later.
The family now has to sell the harvested grain, and the money from the sales is enough for the family to spend for a year.
From what Jin Shu said to Zhou Yanzhu, it sounded like the child was too obedient and sensible. He was so eager to go to school, but now he was still thinking about his family.
Zhou Yanzhu felt even more cherished and cherished towards Jin Shu this time. He quickly fried two eggs for her and sprinkled them with enough sugar.
Jin Shu is the only one in this family who can enjoy this kind of treatment.
Out of curiosity, Zhou Yanzhu asked casually.
"Is your business still running? Can Mommy help?"
"Well, you can help me if you want. I've designed some new styles recently. If you have time, you can help me trim the fabric."
Nowadays, lace is no longer easy to sell, at least not in this place.
Moreover, now that the weather has cooled down, everyone wears coats, and the lace embroidered on the shirts is basically invisible. The cloth patches can be sold for a while. This is a long-term business. Jin Shu plans to continue selling in the surrounding area after going to school.
As for now, she has something else to sell.
"Why did you buy so many black rags?"
"Make gadgets."
"What gadgets can be made with black ones? Young people nowadays don't like black ones."
Even the girls in the village would be laughed at if they wore all black.
"I made a few styles, you just follow them."
Zhou Yanzhu looked at what Jin Shu handed over and held it in her hand for a long time.
"This is……"
"Vest."
A black vest with pockets sewn on it. Each pocket is so wide that it is more than enough to stuff it with one hand.
It looks a bit weird, but the exquisite and beautiful patches on the vest add some highlights to this ordinary dress.
“Will anyone really buy this?”
"We'll know when the time comes. Let's try a hundred pieces first."
This is also the style Jin Shu saw in a magazine. It seemed a bit strange at first glance, but at the second and third glance, it was quite fashionable.
Moreover, these big pockets look very useful. You don’t need to bring anything with you when you go to the market. This pocket alone is enough to hold dozens of eggs.
The rags I bought fit this kind of vest just right.
Jin Shu sewed the patches on her clothes herself, and used cloth patches on areas that were irregular no matter how she cut them.
This ensures that every piece of clothing is unique. The brightly colored patches with different shapes are like fireflies hiding in the dark, very bright and eye-catching.
This kind of clothes is easy to make, and there are no technical requirements. All you need to do is sew the cloth together and trim the threads at the end.
In order to ensure the rapid development of business, Jin Shu bought a second-hand butterfly sewing machine.
This sewing machine cost her nearly 100 yuan, which is quite a lot of money.
When she saw the sewing machine, Zhou Yanzhu was so shocked that she was speechless for a long time.
