Chapter 329: Chapter 328: Extra Income
"Hm, do you like it?"
"I love it, I love it so much!"
"What kind is it?" Su Ling curiously stood up to take a look.
"It’s satin, a new fabric at the department store, requires a coupon. The price is not low." Su Ling saw it when she went shopping a few days ago.
"Yes, I thought it looked nice, so I got a few feet and made it myself at home."
"Thank you, Xiao Wan." Yin Peibai went up and hugged Lin Wan, feeling very happy.
"Hmph, when I give you things, why don’t you hug me like that?"
"Ah... come here for a hug."
"No, no, be careful not to hurt my Bao Bao."
"Is it that exaggerated?"
"Certainly."
"Su Ling, Liu Wei is so nervous about you. Do you still go to class at night?" Lin Wan couldn’t help but ask.
"I go, why wouldn’t I go? The teacher will teach substantial skills next week. I can’t fall behind. If I learn well, I’m waiting for a promotion. I came to study because the factory sponsored me. If I don’t go to class, I can’t learn anything, and without something impressive, how can I become a leader in the future?"
When Su Ling said this, Yin Peibai and Lin Wan knew that she had connections at home, so going to school was to learn some knowledge, that diploma, for future advancement.
Su Ling hurriedly went with Yin Peibai to study the four-piece set Lin Wan made, went to the bedroom, and spread it out on the bed to look.
Only then did Lin Wan carefully explore around Yin Peibai’s yard. There’s no backyard, only a front yard.
The house is connected with three rooms, bedrooms on both sides, a central hall, a separate kitchen on one side, and a toilet and washroom by the corner on the other.
The new house is specially decorated warmly, and the streamers have already been set up.
"You know, before knowing you two, I had a few good friends, but after they got married, we weren’t as close as before. Now, you two are the closest friends I have."
"Isn’t that nice? Over here, you’re the only two I can talk to." Before there was Zhang Shuhua, after she left, they initially kept in contact, but now there’s no news from her.
"Exactly, although I met you two later on, you both get along with me. We play sincerely."
"Since we get along, don’t be polite." Lin Wan chuckled twice, took out a wad of money, and gave Yin Peibai twenty-seven, Su Ling thirty-two.
"What’s this?"
"Money from selling clothes. Didn’t we agree, five cents per piece? This money is all from the clothes you sold yourselves. I said it, I didn’t give any extra."
"Wow, over twenty! Didn’t expect those few busy days could almost match my monthly salary."
"Indeed, it’s just monthly salary!" Su Ling started to show off with her thirty bucks again. "See, now I’m a double payday person too."
"Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan, let me know if there’s more work in the future."
"Want to knit scarves?" Lin Wan blinked.
"Simple ones, yes; complex ones, no." Su Ling said with a bitter face.
"Just simple ones. I’ll provide the yarn, and you can help knit when you have time. One scarf earns a dollar, selling one is five cents."
"That much?" Scarves are easy to knit. If you knit quickly, you can do one in half a day, and it’s possible to knit thirty or forty in a month.
"Yes, it’s all handmade. Troublesome and high cost. Sells for a high price too."
"What kind should we knit?"
"In a few days, I’ll bring samples for you to see." Lin Wan calculated that a pound of decent yarn costs less than two bucks. One scarf is about eight ounces or half a pound. Including labor, the cost is two and a half. Wholesale adds a dollar, three and a half. Retail four or five bucks is no problem.
On the way back from Peibai’s house, Lin Wan passed the street and picked up the popped popcorn she had prepared.
