Chapter 47

Out of sympathy, Su Li did not want Ma Fangfang or any other woman to be injured or killed by Chen Biao's domestic violence, but she was just an ordinary entrepreneur in this era. She had no right to stop other people's marriages, especially Chen Biao and Ma Fangfang were both willing. Su Li really went, and Ma Fangfang was probably the first to scold her for meddling in other people's business?

"Just marry, marry me, and see if she regrets it when she gets beaten." Su Li said with no expression.

Wang Haixia didn't speak. She didn't understand why her daughter believed so firmly that Chen Biao would continue to beat her wife, but the matter didn't happen, and no one dared to pat her chest to ensure that Chen Biao really corrected it.

"Okay, then mom is back first." Wang Haixia said goodbye to her daughter.

Su Li happened to go outside to get things and took her out along the way. The two of them walked to the door and ran into Lu Yan.

It seemed that they didn't expect the two of them to walk together, Lu Yan was stunned.

Wang Haixia still had no shame to see her son-in-law, said "I'm back" and lowered her head and left, with her steps fast.

Lu Yan looked at Wang Haixia's back and turned around and asked Su Li: "You?"

Su Li explained: "I didn't make up, but the female workers here are often changed. She is more familiar with the villagers and can always recommend diligent and reliable female workers for me, so I called her mother again."

Lu Yan smiled and said, "If you talk about some reasons, you are just soft-hearted."

Mothers are different from fathers. Children fall from their mothers. It is difficult to completely break the bonds, especially Wang Haixia is much better than Ding Hai and Ding Jianjun.

Su Li doesn't want to mention the matter there.

Lu Yan held her hand and said, "Okay, accompany me to have a meal. How is Boss Xiaoli's business today?"

He was not serious, Su Li slapped his hand away, pointed to the clothes in the fence yard and said, "It's okay, it's only 30% less for the time being, but it should be recovered soon."

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows: "So confident?"

Su Li smiled but said nothing.

In Baishui Town, Li Caifeng, a smart daughter-in-law who was fighting for business with Su Li, returned home in a turbulent mood and saw workers' clothes piled up in the yard. Her 65-year-old mother-in-law Wu Xiaohong was directing her 18-year-old daughter to wash clothes and her 16-year-old daughter. The two sisters were holding a washboard and rubbing them slowly, while her forty-year-old husband and 13-year-old son were sitting under the eaves and watching them.

Including today's day, Li Caifeng had been washing clothes in the factory for six days. With a glance, she knew that the clothes in the yard could not be washed until dark by her and her two daughters. The piles collected in the evening could be washed tomorrow morning, but these days it was sunny and the clothes were dry soon. Li Caifeng promised to hand over the batch of clothes collected at noon tomorrow evening.

"Mom, why didn't you help with washing? You have to hand over half of it tomorrow night!"

Wu Xiaohong stared at her eyes and said, "I have been washing for an afternoon. I am not tired of cooking at night. I don't have to rest?"

Li Caifeng: "That can't be just relying on the big and second-ya. Didn't I say I can't be busy and ask you to call their aunt?"

Li Caifeng's sister-in-law married in Baishui Town, and it was very convenient to call her over to help.

Wu Xiaohong snorted: "Her aunt has a lot of things at home, so she doesn't have time to come to help you. Come and help quickly. It's okay after washing and drying it!"

Li Caifeng was so angry that she wanted to find her sister-in-law to help her, but suddenly she found that there were no paper pins on her clothes.

Li Caifeng couldn't believe her eyes, so she rushed over and saw that there were more than twenty pieces of uniforms and tops alone without labels, not to mention pants, shoes, and bed sheets and quilts.

This time, before she could ask questions, mother-in-law Wu Xiaohong took the initiative to explain: "I didn't know that there would be so many clothes yesterday and I bought fewer paper pins, but I still said the same thing. They can't recognize their clothes by themselves? I will carry them over tomorrow and let them turn them over. Let's just wash them clean. There are only a few people at home, so how can I have time to record labels?"

Li Caifeng's eldest daughter suddenly said, "Mom, there were a few times when I forgot to hang up the label immediately after washing, but later I couldn't tell who was who."

The second daughter also knocked on her arm and complained: "Mom, these clothes are so dirty that I can't wash some oily spots for a long time, and my hands are rubbed red."

Li Caifeng's mind was dizzy when she heard these words.

She wanted to make money too much, but she only thought beautifully, but she didn't expect that her mother-in-law and her two daughters would be so useless.

Li Caifeng was already very tired after washing clothes for a day, but in order to make money, Li Caifeng took the initiative to do so. She rolled up her sleeves and directed her husband to come and help.

Her husband stared at him: "If you love to wash, you will wash, I, a man, don't do these things!"

Her son, who is in the sixth grade of elementary school, is even more amazing and goes to the house to do his homework.

Li Caifeng's mother-in-law came to help, but she was old and washed very slowly.

Li Caifeng asked her husband to invite her sister-in-law over.

My sister-in-law came. When she saw so many clothes, she asked Li Caifeng how much wages she had to pay.

When Li Caifeng works at Su Li, she charges four cents for washing a coat. After the discount, the price is basically three cents. Li Caifeng works hard and can get a penny. In order to grab the business, Li Caifeng's offer was that she only charges two cents for washing a coat. She earned one more cent. Now that her sister-in-law is here to help, Li Caifeng becomes smarter and proposes to give her sister-in-law a penny.

My sister-in-law disagreed. She knew the price of Li Caifeng and claimed that she was not here to help, but was doing business with Li Caifeng, and she also had to get a salary of two cents per piece.

Li Caifeng had to worry about too many troubles today and had a headache. The most important thing was to wash her clothes quickly, so she had to agree to her sister-in-law's conditions.

With the help of multiple adults, Li Caifeng's pressure on washing clothes was reduced by half.

She didn't even have dinner, and she worked with her sister-in-law and two daughters until twelve o'clock in the evening, and finally washed all the piles of clothes and bed sheets collected at noon. Su Li's business was only 30% less, but it turned out that many workers who didn't want to spend money to wash clothes heard that there were particularly cheap prices, so they all became Li Caifeng's customers. Li Caifeng collected nearly a hundred sets at noon today.

The four women were so tired that they made an appointment to go to bed first and get up at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning to wash the piles they collected in the evening.

Li Caifeng lay on the kang, unable to lift her arms at all.

She asked her husband to help her pinch it.

The man slept like a dead pig.

Li Caifeng suddenly felt wronged and started crying secretly. She worked hard to make money, but she was living a good life for the whole family? But her husband didn't help at all, and her mother-in-law would complain about her with only one point of help. Her sister-in-law is a person who is insatiable and knows how to take advantage of her.

Li Caifeng was frustrated. If she hadn't been too tired, she wouldn't be able to sleep at all.

The next day, Li Caifeng relied on her strong willpower. Not only did she get up by herself, she also woke up her two daughters, and then sent her mother-in-law to call her sister-in-law.

The second pile of clothes had basically no labels. If you don’t have labels, it would be faster to wash them. There was no place for the Li family to dry clothes. My mother and mother took basins and hung them to my sister-in-law’s house.

It was almost noon, and Li Caifeng asked her husband to take her mother-in-law to continue to collect clothes outside the steel mill.

The mother and the mother went there and collected another batch of clothes and came back.

Li Caifeng continued to wash clothes. She thought that she would finish her work early tonight and go to bed early. She had enough rest and wouldn't have to be so tired tomorrow.

However, in the evening, Li Caifeng and his family brought the washed batch to the steel mill to return clothes, and something happened.

Some workers found that the clothes were not their own at all, and they were wearing the wrong size; some workers found that the bed sheets were not washed clean at all; some workers found that the shoes were actually washed by Li Caifeng's family; some workers found that the two socks they got were not one pair!

The most cases of wrong clothes were divided, and a group of big and thick workers started to have a quarrel with Li Caifeng's family.

The newcomer wants to hand over the clothes to Li Caifeng's workers when they see this situation, they just don't want to give it a word. Let's continue to wash at Lu Yan's wife's shop!

Su Li didn't have to go to the factory gate to see it himself. She could guess what was going on just listening to the workers' cursing.

All of these were expected by Su Li.

In order to open a laundry, Su Li and Lu Yan made detailed plans and considered all possible situations, including that they could transfer undried clothes to the vacant aisle in the new dormitory building on rainy days. The workers' clothes were oily, and Su Lihua bought a high price to remove oil and stains, including that the female worker in her hand was very hard to keep her job.

Li Caifeng's family has already made some profits at her big discount. It is impossible to spend money to hire a female worker who is willing to work hard. How can she have such a high awareness by relying on her family?

In just one lunch, Li Caifeng's laundry reputation was completely broken. Some workers who had not yet obtained the clothes were worried about problems with their clothes, so they called a few brothers to go to the Li family in Baishui Town to see. They saw that the Li family's yard was full of clothes in a mess, and the clothes line was filled with them. Some clothes were spread on the ladder, some were spread on the pile of firewood, and even a few pieces were spread on the wall of the pigpen, where the smell of pig manure was extinguished.

If the steel mill had not been fired from the steel factory for fear of causing trouble, the workers would have wanted to beat Li Caifeng's family together.

The group beating was illegal, and the workers endured it and only unanimously asked Li Caifeng's family to refund the money.

They were dozens of strong workers, staring at each other and demanding to pay back the money. Li Caifeng and her in-laws dared not to pay it back because the workers were anxious. Li Caifeng had to pay the money she had given to her sister-in-law first. After the workers left, Li Caifeng went to ask her sister-in-law for it, but her sister-in-law refused to give it to her!

"I will wash your clothes for you until midnight, and you let me do it in vain? What's the reason?"

Li Caifeng looked at her mother-in-law, hoping that her mother-in-law would persuade her sister-in-law.

My mother-in-law advised her, but my sister-in-law refused to give her any advice, so my mother-in-law and Li Caifeng's husband joined forces to scold Li Caifeng again.

Li Caifeng was so tired that she didn't make any money. She was complained and lost the good job of washing clothes on Su Li. She really didn't want to live anymore!

The villagers watched another big show, and after watching it, they had an idea: opening a laundry is indeed profitable, but without Ding Xiaoli's ability, ordinary people really can't learn it!

At this point, no one in the villages and towns near the steel mill wanted to compete for business with Su Li.

Su Li continued to make great achievements.
