Chapter 226 Make money

The next day, after Zhang Zhiqiang and his brothers came back from school, they paid a deposit of 52 ounces. A total of thirteen people had to customize their schoolbags, and they all had to bring embroidery. Some had to embroider green pine, some had to embroider orchid, and some had to embroider their names...

Zhang Yuxiu was calculating with her fingers, "Thirteen schoolbags, one fifteen ounces, a total of...

After forgetting it for a long time, it was not calculated. Zhang Zhiqiang and Zhang Zhiwen were also serious about counting money with their fingers.

"The total amount is 195 cents." Su Jinse said, but he thought in his heart that he had to think of a way to teach his sisters and brothers to learn arithmetic in the future, otherwise this settlement would be a headache.

"Wow! Sister, you are so awesome. How did you calculate it?" Zhang Yuxiu's three siblings looked at her in surprise.

Su Jinse said embarrassedly: "It's calculated using your brain."

"Sister, you are such a genius!" Zhang Zhiqiang exclaimed.

Zhang Zhiwen also looked admirable, and praised Su Jinse so embarrassed.

The next morning, when Zhang Zhiqiang and Zhang Zhiwen went to the county to attend school, Zhang Yuxiu and Su Jinse were accompanied by Li Hongxiang to the county town, mainly to buy cloth.

After arriving at the cloth store, I bought the cloth needle and came back. The size of the cloth needed was calculated last night. It cost a total of 55 cents to buy the cloth and needle thread.

After returning home, Zhang Yuxiu began to cut, and Li Hongxiang helped her to do it together. She still did the basic sewing and cutting work well. As for the embroidery, she planned to leave it to Xiu'er.

Zhang Yuxiu and Li Hongxiang worked day and night for this batch of schoolbags, and finally completed them all ten days later. The speed can be said to be very fast.

Zhang Zhiqiang and his brothers took their schoolbags to the school. The classmates immediately gathered around and handed over the remaining money, took their beloved schoolbags, and also liked Zhang Zhiqiang and his brothers to put books in them, snacks, etc.

After receiving all the final payment, the two of them went home from school and handed over a penny to Zhang Yuxiu, "Sister, this is the money you earn."

Zhang Yuxiu looked at the money in her hand and was very excited. She took out forty cents to Li Hongxiang, "Mom, this is the money to pay back to you."

I spent a total of fifty-five cents to buy cloth and needlework. My grandmother gave her ten cents of New Year’s money before, and my mother also gave her five cents. The remaining forty cents were borrowed from my mother. Now that I have made money, I will return the borrowed money as soon as possible.

One hundred and ninety-five cents, minus the cost of buying cloth needles and threads, and another one hundred and forty cents, and then she took another forty cents to her mother, "Mom, this is your wage."

Li Hongxiang couldn't help but be happy, "What's the matter, I still have my salary."

She smiled and took twenty cents out of it, "I just helped cut it and did some simplest work. You should do the embroidery by yourself, and I will take twenty cents to it."

Zhang Yuxiu took another forty coins to Su Jinse: "Sister, this is your salary."

Su Jinse's eyes curled, and her dark eyes were filled with smiles, "I have a share, too."

Zhang Yuxiu said: "Of course! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought of making these schoolbags."

Su Jinse smiled and took over, "Thank you sister."

However, Su Jinse did not take forty cents, but ten cents. "I just talked and didn't help anything else. All this is your own credit for your sister."

In the end, Su Jinse handed over the ten cents to Li Hongxiang, making Li Hongxiang so happy that she praised her for her good manners and filial piety.
