Ti passed quickly, and Celestial Fortune Clothing Factory was under rapid construction. Old machines were moved out and new machines were brought in.
The employees were also quickly recruited.
"Yun."
On the third day of the clothing factory’s construction, Qin Guodong found Qin Yun.
"Dad, what’s the matter?" Seeing Qin Guodong looking serious, Qin Yun asked.
Qin Guodong hesitated slightly and said, "Previously, when opening a clothing store or shoe store, your aunt couldn’t manage as a sales clerk. Now that we’re opening a clothing factory, can we let her work in the factory?"
For the clothing store, Qin Yun actually hired young people. If Zhang Pandi had any ability, he would have let her be the store manager, like his stepmother Feng Lan, but unfortunately, Zhang Pandi was completely unsuitable.
Upon hearing what Qin Guodong said, Qin Yun smiled and said, "Dad, I was wondering what it was about, of course, that’s fine."
He knew that Zhang Pandi had worked in a clothing factory before.
In fact, won of Zhao i and Zhang Pandi’s generation are generally skilled in sewing, often patching up clothes for their families with a sewing machine, or even making clothes and shoes themselves.
"I can offer my aunt a higher salary, but how much more depends on her ability. After all, everyone else is watching, in the clothing factory line, whoever is more efficient gets paid more." After saying this, Qin Yun added.
He could help relatives, appointing his aunt as a team leader among over a dozen sewers, to supervise others, thus earning more than others, but that was as far as he could help.
How much she earns still depends on her capability.
"Of course, that’s fine, your aunt doesn’t talk much, but she’s very efficient when it cos to work," Qin Guodong hurriedly said.
His face was full of joy and he said, "I’ll call your uncle now to tell him about this."
Qin Yun felt so-so about his uncle Qin Guoliang, but they were biological brothers, and Qin Guoliang was much older than him. When they were kids, it was mostly Qin Guoliang who took care of them.
Their own family was living a good life, but his elder brother’s family was still the sa. He always wanted to help out a bit.
...
In Qin Family Village, there were few people walking along the road, now with new rural developnt, rural paths were paved with roads, making transportation more convenient.
There were a few cars parked along the road, cars weren’t considered expensive now, many people bought them, making travel a bit easier.
In the quiet village, the occasional crowing of a rooster could be heard.
At this ti, Qin Guoliang was sitting on the doorstep, smoking silently.
These days, there were fewer tasks on the construction site, and with the high temperatures, they often took breaks, working one day and resting the next.
anwhile, Zhang Pandi was nding clothes, these were coats, earning twenty yuan for nding one piece, but even without eating and taking no breaks, she couldn’t nd many pieces in a day, she couldn’t earn much but could only earn so tens of yuan daily to help the family a bit.
"Sigh, it’s all my fault for being useless, otherwise I would be working in your second uncle’s store like his stepmother." As she was sewing, Zhang Pandi suddenly sighed, with a hint of self-bla in her voice.
"Alright, I’ve told you several tis, stop talking about this." Hearing this, Qin Guoliang imdiately frowned and reprimanded her.
Even though he said this, he was quite restless inside as well.
The three brothers of the Qin Family have always lived tough lives, he being the eldest, would help his two brothers whenever he could, frequently visiting each other so as not to let the brothers’ bond fade.
Under his connection, the three families, although separated for decades, hadn’t changed much in their relationships.
Now, the second brother’s family was prospering, opening several stores in Qingwu County, he felt genuinely happy.
The second brother wanted to support them a bit as well, and now the wife from the third brother’s family, Feng Lan, was working in the clothing store, earning more than six thousand yuan a month.
More than six thousand yuan a month amounts to over seventy thousand a year.
Working arduously on the construction site, he could only earn seventy to eighty thousand a year.
The second brother also let his wife Zhang Pandi work in the store, but she couldn’t do it, watching such a high salary go unattained.
He felt a bit resentful towards Zhang Pandi, wondering why the third brother’s wife Feng Lan could do it but not his own wife.
If Zhang Pandi could earn that much, after saving for a few years, his son’s marriage would certainly be settled.
But being a proud man, he couldn’t say it out loud, these matters were all pressed in his heart.
"The work on this construction site is almost done, I’m planning to go to the city for the next site." Qin Guoliang said.
"Oh." Hearing this, Zhang Pandi said, "Isn’t the city too far?"
Previously, Qin Guoliang had worked in the city, but as he got older, he mainly worked in the county now.
It took about half an hour to ride an electric bike from Qin Village to Qingwu County, but going to the city took about an hour and a half, aning three hours for a round trip.
"The construction site in the city pays more, over 350 a day, while the county pays about 300," Qin Guoliang said.
Although it’s over fifty yuan more, he would need to get up an hour earlier every morning, probably at four o’clock, and get ho an hour later in the evening.
"It’s all my fault." Hearing this, Zhang Pandi couldn’t help but say.
"Constantly talking about it, aren’t you tired? I never blad you." Seeing her say this again, Qin Guoliang scolded.
He stood up, picked up a hoe, and said, "I’ll take advantage of being ho today to go to the field and turn the soil."
He was about to leave, but just as he stepped out, his phone rang.
Seeing it was a call from Qin Guodong, Qin Guoliang quickly answered.
After saying a few words, his face lit up with imnse joy.
"What happened?" Seeing the smile on Qin Guoliang’s face, Zhang Pandi couldn’t help but ask.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Guoliang smiled and said, "Yun is going to open a clothing factory and wants you to work there, with a basic monthly salary of 4000, plus other performance and rewards, the more you work, the more you earn."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Pandi also beca happy.
She wasn’t eloquent in front of strangers, but she was very skilled at sewing, having worked in a clothing factory for several years.
"Yun is a kid we’ve watched grow up, and he’s becoming more successful,"
Having gotten her job, Zhang Pandi felt a sense of relief and couldn’t help but say, "If Xiaotao had half of Yun’s ability, I would be satisfied."
"Don’t you know your own son? Why compare him to Yun?"
Thinking of his son Qin Xiaotao, Qin Guoliang couldn’t help but feel agitated.
At thirty, always with his head down, not very talkative, with such low wages, his constant lack of ambition was irritating to him.
"You need to work hard at the clothing factory and don’t have any other thoughts," he directly said, "Even though we’re relatives, we shouldn’t try to take advantage. As long as you do well, the second brother won’t treat us unfairly."
Seeing the benefits the third brother’s wife is getting as a store manager clearly shows the advantages.
"Yes, I’ll definitely do my best." Zhang Pandi quickly nodded.
