Chapter 127 The beautiful silk color
Today is New Year's Eve. Early in the morning, I heard children playing with firecrackers at the entrance of the alley.
Xirou woke up from the warm bed and remembered that she had made an appointment with Wei Guoqiang to watch the dyeing of silk and satin today.
After hurriedly dressing up and leaving the room, Xi Zhuquan and Chen Qingyun were frying various fried foods such as candies, twists and so on in the kitchen.
It is a custom in Jing'an Village that every household will fry something during the Chinese New Year, and everyone celebrates the New Year happily.
Although they won't be celebrating the New Year in Jing'an Village this year, they still have to organize the New Year celebrations.
After Xirou finished washing, she ran to the kitchen to watch. When she saw the freshly baked sugar horns, she took one and put it in her mouth.
"Well, it's delicious. It's crispy and crunchy. It's so delicious." Xirou said in surprise.
"It's delicious, so just eat more. We didn't have the conditions before. Now that our lives are better, we can eat as much as we want." Chen Qingyun said.
Xirou finished eating the candy corner, took another twist, sat in front of the stove, and ate while warming herself.
Xizhu was afraid that she would get angry after eating too much, so he quickly brought a bowl of millet porridge and said, "Eat breakfast first. The millet porridge warms your stomach. Eat more."
Xirou took the bowl with a smile and started eating it with big mouthfuls.
In the kitchen, the family was busy working and talking, with satisfied smiles on their faces. This year has been so comfortable!
After finishing the millet porridge, Xirou ate a few more candy canes, and her stomach was finally full.
"Dad, I'm going out for a while, and I'll come back and post couplets with you." Xirou said, clapped her hands, and was about to walk out.
"Come back early." Xi Zhuquan shouted towards the door.
"Okay, I got it, I'll be back soon." Xirou replied loudly.
After leaving the door, a group of children rushed towards her. Xirou hurriedly hid aside and waited for them to run past before continuing to walk towards the station.
Along the way, Xirou greeted neighbors who were returning from shopping for groceries and greeted them politely. She had completely integrated into the local life.
Half an hour later, Xi Rou came to the alley entrance of Wei Guoqiang's house. When there was no one around, she took out a large bag of things that she had prepared in advance, and then carried it to Wei Guoqiang's house.
Xirou felt that a craftsman with a cultural background like Wei Guoqiang would definitely not want money, so she decided to give him food.
When they arrived at the door of Wei's house, the door was open. Xirou walked in. Wei Guoqiang was drying dyed cloth in the yard.
Seeing Xi Rou coming over, she said happily: "Xi Rou, come quickly and see if the color of this satin is good-looking."
Xirou raised her head and looked at the tall bamboo pole, only to see several colors of silk and satin hanging on it, fluttering in the wind. Under the sun, these satins exude a unique light, like a layer of high-gloss, which fully reflects the silk texture.
"Wow, it looks so beautiful. If these silks were made into a skirt, it would be so beautiful." Xi Rou praised.
"If this was made into a skirt, the price would have to be 10 times higher. It is not something ordinary people can afford." Wei Guoqiang looked at the silks and satins and sighed.
"It's okay. There are more and more rich people now. The country is encouraging everyone to run towards a well-off society. Soon everyone will be able to wear clothes made of silk." Xi Rou smiled and said, "You don't know, yesterday I and I When my parents went to the department store, the scene was not too lively. It seemed like there was no money, and everyone carried bags of stuff home."
Wei Guoqiang smiled: "That's right. Now is not the 7s and 80s. At that time, we were still worried about not having enough food. We only needed to wear clothes. Who cared whether they looked good or not."
"Yes, the color is good. If you dye it, it will definitely sell well. You won't have to worry about running out of business." Xirou said.
"Well, I am also confident that as long as it can be mass-produced, customers will come to us automatically without us having to find customers." Wei Guoqiang is still very confident in his craftsmanship.
"Great, then after the New Year, we will get started. By the way, this is the contract I drafted. You can see if there is anything to add. If there is no problem, we will sign the contract. You read it first, I Take the things to the kitchen." After Xirou said that, she carried the things into the kitchen.
Wei Guoqiang was very embarrassed and hurriedly followed him: "Xi Rou, this is inappropriate. Please stop bringing me things. There is still a lot of rice you gave me last time."
Xirou ignored him and happily took out something from the bag: "This is the chicken and pork belly used for the Chinese New Year. It is best used to worship the gods. There are also these bacon, bacon, and duck. You can keep them and eat them slowly." . I brought you 20 kilograms of sweet potatoes, eat them slowly. 10 kilograms of potatoes, 5 kilograms of Chinese cabbage, and 5 kilograms of tomatoes."
Wei Guoqiang's eyes widened when he saw it. How could this pocket hold so much, and he actually took out so many things.
Seeing Xirou still taking it out, he became curious and hurried over to look at the bag.
Xirou knew what he was thinking, so she dumped the bag on the ground and said with a smile, "It's gone!"
Wei Guoqiang took the bag and saw that there was really nothing in it. Then he looked at the things on the ground and said gratefully and distressedly: "Look at you kid, you are carrying so many things on your back as a girl. How heavy does it have to be? You can’t do this again.”
Xirou smiled and said nonchalantly: "Grandpa Wei, I'm young and strong, so I won't be in trouble. Don't worry, I'm small. I'm very strong. If you run out of strength, eat something and it will grow back. Don't be afraid."
"Haha, you kid is so kind-hearted that you are afraid of making me hungry again." Wei Guoqiang said happily.
Xirou stuck out her tongue. Isn't this just because she was afraid that you would be hungry and fainted on the road last time? If it happens again, your life will be in danger.
I still expect you to make a lot of money for me, so I have to serve you well.
"Grandpa Wei, these things are not worth much, so you can rest assured and eat them. By the way, this is 1000 yuan. You can take the advance salary for you." Xi Rou said with a smile.
"What? This factory hasn't been selected yet, and you gave me money, and you gave me so much." Wei Guoqiang was shocked.
He originally thought that it would be great if he could get 10% of the shares and wait for the dividends. Unexpectedly, Xirou returned his salary, which was 1000 yuan.
Xirou pointed to the contract in his hand and smiled: "It is written in the contract that in addition to your 10% dividend, your monthly salary is 1000 yuan."
Wei Guoqiang hurriedly picked up the contract and read it. Yes, the rights and obligations of each were clearly written in it. His job responsibilities were to be responsible for dyeing technical support and team building. His treatment was also very preferential, 10% of the shares, 1000 yuan. Monthly salary, working 5 days a week, and holiday gifts.
Seeing this, Wei Guoqiang's eyes widened. This treatment is so good.
Seeing his dumbfounded look, Xi Rou asked with a smile, "How is it? Are you satisfied with this contract?"
Wei Guoqiang was stunned for a while before answering that he was satisfied. He was so satisfied. I didn't know what to say for giving me such good treatment. "
"You are the technical core of our factory, and your treatment must be good, otherwise I am afraid that you will be poached." Xirou joked.
"No, absolutely not. Even if you don't give me these, I won't leave. With such good silk dyeing, I can do it even if you don't pay me." Wei Guoqiang laughed.
What others won’t understand is that a dyer’s persistence and pursuit of fabrics and colors cannot be measured by money.
