After sorting out her thoughts, Zhao Ling'er went downstairs to wait for Li Heng and A Yao to come back, and at the same time asked A San to prepare meals.
Not long after, they came.
Li Heng didn't take anything, but A Yao was holding a deflated object shaped like a little rabbit.
It looked like a toy that her mother had sewn for her before she was alive.
"Zhou You, please help me open another room for Li Heng and A Yao to live in. The rent will be registered in my account."
Zhou You didn't say anything, walked to the front desk, registered the account books, and handed Zhao Ling'er a key.
Zhao Linger handed the key to Li Heng.
The three of them were sitting in the hall eating together.
"Li Heng, how are you doing today?" Zhao Ling'er asked.
Li Heng shook his head and said nothing.
"My brother took me to the private school today!" Ayao said happily: "There are many brothers there! But they don't play with me! The teacher asked them to memorize all the time. If they can't memorize it, they will be punished by standing still."
"Oh?" Zhao Ling'er asked with a smile: "Did sir ask you to endorse it?"
Ayao shook her head: "Sir, I can always play there as long as I don't cause trouble!"
Zhao Ling'er frowned: "Ayao, my brother didn't send you to your husband's place just to let you play! You have to learn to read and write!"
"Why should I know how to read and write? Neither my father nor my mother can read, and neither can my brother!" Ayao pointed at Li Heng.
"Ling'er asked you, what are you referring to me for?" Li Heng blushed and scolded A Yao angrily.
Ayao pouted.
"Okay, both you and your brother must be able to read and write. Look at brother Zhou You, he can read and count, so he can work in the inn. Look at me, only if I can read and write can I start my own business and make money to support myself.
Reading and literacy is not just to make money to support yourself, but also to give yourself more choices. The more you know, the more opportunities you have to choose from. When the time comes, you can do whatever you want."
"Then can I stay in the inn every day?" Ayao's eyes widened.
"Can".
"Can I have enough to eat every day?"
"Can".
"Have you had enough to eat every meal?"
Zhao Ling'er nodded: "Okay."
"Then can I be like you?" Ayao looked at Zhao Linger.
Zhao Ling'er smiled and said, "Okay. As long as you study hard, you have to memorize whatever your husband asks your brothers to memorize. If you memorize it, you will come back and memorize it to me in the evening."
"I can! It's fun to go to private school!" Ayao danced happily.
Zhao Linger smiled knowingly.
"What about you? Did you gain anything today? Have you agreed on the work in the steamed bun shop?" Zhao Ling'er asked Li Heng.
"Asked, eighty cents a month, food and shelter."
"Oh? That's great! Have you agreed?"
Li Heng shook his head: "What should I do about my sister?"
Zhao Ling'er smiled, looked at Li Heng sincerely, and said, "Li Heng, I treat you as a friend. You go to work and I will help you take care of your sister."
"But why are you so nice to me? We don't even know each other."
"I can't tell." Zhao Ling'er shrugged: "If you agree, you can go to work tomorrow. If you don't agree, let's find another way. Or," Zhao Ling'er pondered for a moment and said, "You should just follow your own path.
Come as you wish."
After dinner, Zhao Ling'er lay on the bed and began to think about things in Yingbin Building.
If you want to earn enough one thousand taels of silver, your net income per day must be at least thirty-three taels, which is thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three taels of silver. However, the current income of Junpeng Inn is only 122 taels of silver per day.
Then the income will increase at least two hundred and seventy-three times.
Haha, Zhao Ling'er sneered. Did he have a brain attack?
Now that you have signed the contract, let’s find a solution quickly!
clothing?
Well, if a piece of clothing is calculated as 30 taels, after deducting the cost, she can probably earn 9 taels. If she wants to make enough 1,000 taels, she will need 111 pieces.
It's not impossible.
But, is there an easier way?
perhaps?
With a flash of inspiration, she came up with a good idea.
Still have to go find Lin Wan'er first.
Um!
Go to sleep.
With nothing to worry about, Zhao Ling'er instantly felt much more relaxed and soon fell asleep.
Yesterday, I forgot to give the money I agreed to give to Li Heng. In the morning, Zhao Ling'er got up and went to find Li Heng.
After giving the money to Li Heng, Zhao Linger looked at A Yao who was still sleeping.
Why don't you take her with you today and buy her two nice clothes and some gadgets.
Forget it, we can't let her feel that studying is not important.
At this age, study must take priority.
Zhao Ling'er thought for a while, but still didn't disturb her and left alone.
What should we do today?
At four o'clock in the afternoon, go to Lin Wan'er and give her the design. Pay her back the money to Mother Wu. Also, discuss with Miss Su. It's best to buy some clothes for A Yao on the way.
It's still early, so now that you've decided, let's act quickly.
Zhao Ling'er returned to the room, took out a brush and various paints, and spread the paper flat on the table.
It is enough to prepare a total of ten sets of clothes. Any more will look cheap. However, to be on the safe side, let’s produce fifteen designs and show them to Mrs. Su first. In addition, the finished product may not be as good as imagined. It’s not as good as
Prepare an extra set or two as a backup.
What should I draw?
Zhao Ling'er felt a little melancholy.
After all, I am not a fashion designer, and I don’t care that much about the style of the clothes I usually wear. When I was suddenly asked to draw a picture, I didn’t know how to start!
Hey, no matter what, let’s get three sets each for spring, summer, autumn and winter!
