"Yuwei, Sun Ling was expelled, and her character is notorious throughout the school. You'd better not have any contact with her." After hearing Sun Ling's words, Li He hurriedly spoke up and warned in a low voice.
She finally had a good relationship with Jiang Yuwei, but she couldn't let Sun Ling take her away.
"Li He, you have the guts to stop making small moves behind your back. How dare you pretend that I don't know about it? What a good person you are. Your partner slept with someone within a few days. You really pretend that everyone doesn't know about it."
When classmates passing by heard such breaking news, they all cast strange glances at Li He.
Li He blushed instantly: "Sun Ling, stop talking nonsense here!"
"We can't go to the guest house. Didn't you two get into the woods of the school?"
Seeing that she even knew the address, Li He suddenly turned pale.
Jiang Yuwei took a step forward and said to Sun Ling: "Let's go to the other side of the lecture theater."
There were few people there, and her contact with Sun Ling would not be seen by too many people.
Sun Ling glanced at Li He with some pride and raised her feet to follow Jiang Yuwei's footsteps.
Soon the two arrived at the lecture theater, and Sun Ling sat down on a stool casually: "I know why you invited me here. Our family has lost power, and I was expelled from the school in disgrace. There is no one like me."
My friend, you feel embarrassed."
Sun Ling looked at Jiang Yuwei and said with some self-deprecation: "No, you have a new friend now, so you may not consider me a friend anymore."
Ever since something happened at home, Jiang Yuwei has never taken the initiative to care about her. Before she asked her for help, she hid at her uncle's house. After nearly a year of various changes, Sun Ling is no longer as innocent as before, and she will slowly think about many things.
.
Jiang Yuwei's delicate brows furrowed and she didn't explain too much. She just asked, "Why did you come to see me today?"
Sun Ling suppressed the self-mockery on her face and said seriously: "Yuwei, your family has a good network, can you help me arrange a job?"
Whether she is a contract worker or working for a self-employed person, Sun Ling can't lower her head. After all, she has a previous background and has gone to college. She doesn't even bother to associate with those people. However, if she wants to join a work unit or enterprise, according to her current situation, she can't rely on connections.
It was very difficult, so she thought of begging Jiang Yuwei.
Jiang Yuwei's brows furrowed again. Her parents were both public officials, and the Sun family's situation was too complicated. Who knew if someone would continue to watch and wait to find out, so it was best not to get involved.
But after all, the two have been friends for many years, and it would be too cold to refuse them outright. Therefore, Jiang Yuwei thought for a while and said, "I will remember to tell my parents, but it is not certain whether it will happen."
Hearing that she promised to tell her family, Sun Lingzhong became happy again. It seemed that Jiang Yuwei had not forgotten the friendship between the two.
"Yuwei, I know that no matter what happens, you will still be the best to me." Sun Ling smiled and stood up: "Shall I invite you to eat at the restaurant we often go to outside the school?"
Jiang Yuwei smiled perfunctorily: "Sun Ling, I have already made an appointment with Li He and the others, and they are also waiting for me. It would be bad if I don't go."
She did not say that we would make an appointment another day, but Sun Ling did not hear her rejection. She just nodded with some disappointment: "Then let's make another day. I will come to see you another day and we can go together."
Jiang Yuwei turned around and left the lecture theater without nodding or shaking her head.
Sun Ling left the teaching building all the way. When passing by the playground, she couldn't help but stop and glanced at the basketball court. When she saw Li Zhiwei's figure, her eyes lit up.
I wanted to go over and say a few words, but suddenly thought of something, my eyes became gloomy again, and in the end I could only walk away silently.
…
As time passed by the weekend, Chen Lishu asked Liang Chunsheng to go to the textile factory to pick up the goods.
The weather is getting warmer, and fine fabrics are starting to be put on the counters in large quantities.
The colors and patterns this year have increased a lot compared to last year, but the price has not changed much. It is still very expensive. The cheapest Doliang fabric sold on the counter costs one and a half feet, plus a two-inch cloth ticket.
Not to mention the ones with eye-catching designs and colors, they were sold for one yuan, eighty-nine dollars per foot. Even so, the supply was still in short supply.
"At the meeting at the beginning of this year, all factories are undergoing reforms. In the past, they were blindly pursuing output value, but now the regulations require that patterns and colors must be changed once a month, so the comparison of fabrics and patterns has been greatly improved."
In the past, the factory did not produce varieties with low output value, did not produce products that were difficult to produce, and did not produce products with many designs and colors. The production and marketing even went wrong, resulting in a large backlog of fabrics.
Now the factory is gradually beginning to consider market needs and determine whether to increase, reduce or stop production of different varieties.
At the beginning of the year, the factory held a meeting and decided that in the past, we could only adjust the varieties a few times a year, and the looms were rarely renovated, but now we have to adjust the varieties and renovate the machines every month.
Li Zhengxing chatted briefly with Chen Lishu, and then took them to the warehouse to choose colors.
Chen Lishu noticed that the fabrics piled up did have many more patterns and colors than before.
“Don’t know about the price?”
Li Zhengxing: "The lowest price I can give is one yuan and three feet, but you can choose any color."
Chen Lishu frowned almost invisible when she heard the price.
Although she can buy negotiated cloth in her own name, the price is much more expensive than before. If she goes by the price on the counter, she can indeed make a little money, but such a small amount of money is really not enough.
After deducting Li Zhengxing's share, labor and store space, he made almost no money, let alone transporting it back to the county town to be made into garments and then transporting them back. After a toss, the price was not advantageous at all.
Nowadays, the necessary wedding gifts are a sewing machine and a bicycle. People can just buy the fabrics to make clothes themselves, why bother to buy ready-made clothes in the store.
As the group of people continued to walk in, Chen Lishu suddenly glanced at the two-meter-high white cloth lined up on one side of the wall, and couldn't help but take a second look.
"That's white cloth produced in the factory."
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Municipal Textile Factory and the Municipal No. 1 Printing and Dyeing Factory merged to form the current textile factory. The so-called white cloth refers to the cloth that has not been printed and dyed.
Chen Lishu walked a few steps and found that these white cloths were also of good quality. Her thoughts moved slightly and she couldn't help but curiously asked: "Brother Li, how do you sell white cloths?"
Li Zhengxing didn't know her intention and said casually: "It hasn't been decorated yet, so the price must be cheaper."
Chen Lishu asked: "If I want to buy it, how much is the minimum price I can pay?"
Li Zhengxing was surprised: "Everyone who wants to buy must buy the ones with colors. Who are you buying white cloth to sell to?"
Chen Lishu smiled: "I just want to know the price."
Thinking she was just curious, Li Zhengxing didn't think much about it: "If you take it, the minimum is eighty cents."
Eight cents, compared to the price of one yuan and three cents, the difference is a full fifty cents per foot!
