Chapter 24: The Earnings Shocked the Little Companions

Xu Sangluo smiled at them, “I have 22 yuan and 10 cents, so today’s total earnings are…”

Everyone held their breath, nervously watching Xu Sangluo.

Even little Qin Yan, who didn’t quite understand, swallowed hard and became nervous.

Xu Sangluo’s eyes curved into a smile, “88 yuan.”

“Whoa!”

Everyone gasped in unison, their faces full of disbelief.

“8… 88 yuan? Did I hear correctly? It’s 88? 80 and 8 yuan?” Qin Zhifeng stammered, staring at the money in his hand, not knowing how to react for a while.

Xu Sangluo took back the money and put it away.

“Okay, Xiaoyu, you should go to school. You’re going to be late.”

Qin Zhiyu hadn’t recovered yet. She was urged to get up in a daze.

88 yuan! They had made 88 yuan in half a day!

How could there be so much?

Big brother worked at the brick factory, working his butt off, and he only made 20 yuan a month.

They said the highest-paid workers at the cotton mill only made about 60 yuan a month.

How did they make 88 yuan in half a day?

Not to mention them, even Qin Mama was still in shock.

“Snap out of it. Go to school quickly. Be careful on the road, don’t be in a daze.” Xu Sangluo couldn’t help but laugh as she pushed her out.

Qin Zhiyu swallowed hard, “Sister Sangluo, really, really 88 yuan?”

“Yes.”

“Then, then, then why don’t I take a day off this afternoon and help make more?”

Xu Sangluo drew a black line across her forehead and continued to push her, “Don’t think about it. Just focus on your studies. We three are enough for the afternoon.”

“But…”

The two of them were still reluctant to leave.

One more person could make a lot more, and they could earn a lot more money.

88 yuan!

Thinking about how they would make a lot less in the afternoon, Qin Zhiyu felt like her heart was bleeding.

But Xu Sangluo put on a stern face, and she couldn’t do anything. She could only go to school listlessly.

But it was obvious that she couldn’t focus on her studies in the afternoon.

When Xu Sangluo returned to the room, Qin Zhifeng was still staring at the money on the table in a daze.

Qin Mama had a complex expression on her face, not knowing what to think.

Seeing Xu Sangluo come in, Qin Mama took a deep breath, “Sangluo, I think the three-seven split isn’t appropriate. How about two-eight?”

With so much money, even with a two-eight split, the Qin family could get almost 20 yuan.

That was a day’s income.

Qin Mama felt a little uneasy about taking so much money.

Just a few scraps of cloth, they had only worked for a few hours, and they had only sold for half a day. They had made 88 yuan?

How unreal was that?

If the money hadn’t been there, Qin Mama would have thought it was a hallucination.

Xu Sangluo immediately looked helpless, “Qin Mama… don’t be like that. It’s really not necessary.”

Qin Zhifeng suddenly stood up with a shout of “Ah!”

He startled little Qin Yan, who was still dazed.

Qin Mama subconsciously patted his back to comfort him, while turning her head to glare at her son.

Qin Zhifeng turned around and ran out of the house, “I’m going to get some fresh air and clear my head.”

Otherwise, he would feel like he was in a dream.

He was almost unable to distinguish between reality and dreams.

Xu Sangluo, “…”

In the afternoon, Xu Sangluo went to the supply and marketing cooperative in town again and bought a lot of rubber bands, nylon ropes, and some small ornaments.

For example, beaded necklaces, pendants, and so on.

These could be disassembled and incorporated into the designs.

She planned to make a quick buck in town first.

She had a feeling that she could probably sell for three or four days in town.

Then people would start to imitate her.

Maybe the female workers at the cotton mill would start to think about it today.

The market hadn’t really taken off yet, so the factories probably wouldn’t join in.

But individuals will likely follow suit and set up stalls to compete for business.

However, Xu Sangluo has more variety, so she can at least get a head start for a week.

The best sales should be in the first four days or so, and then they will gradually decline.

After all, there are only so many people in town, and everyone knows how to do some handicrafts.

The things are not difficult to make, and soon people from other communes will be able to figure out how to make them themselves.

So she plans to sell for another three days. If things go as expected, she will go to the county to grab the market.

Xu Sangluo went quickly and returned quickly. She also taught Qin Mama and Qin Zhifeng a few new designs, adding some plastic beads, little stars, sequins, and other small ornaments.

Fabric hair accessories, similar to this.

To make the designs more diverse.

With the 88 yuan as motivation, Qin Zhifeng and Qin Mama were very enthusiastic in the afternoon, completely focused.

Xu Sangluo couldn’t handle the handicrafts, so she took the materials and went to her room, then entered her space to work.

Fortunately, the farmstay advocated all-round service, so they had sewing machines.

With a sewing machine, it was much easier to work.

After working for a while, she felt that she had done enough, so she stopped and left with her things.

But as she was leaving, she thought for a moment and went to the office building.

The three-story office building was like a small villa. It was empty and a little creepy.

Xu Sangluo’s office was on the third floor, taking up the entire floor, including the rooftop above.

There was her office, a rest room, a study, and a gym.

The rooftop was turned into a small garden, with a swimming pool in the middle, which was very beautiful.

She went to the rest room first to see if there was anything she could use.

Then she went to the study to see if there were any books related to handicrafts.

Unfortunately, there weren’t any.

She didn’t like doing handicrafts. She learned these skills before for work.

Then she went to the office.

The office was spacious and relaxing.

There was a sofa on the left, a bookcase and a display cabinet on the right, and a very artistic desk in the middle.

Behind it was a floor-to-ceiling window.

She walked over and pulled up the blinds.

Standing by the window, she could see half of the farmstay, and it was right by the fields and orchard.

She looked for a while, but she lost interest.

She lowered the blinds again and sighed.

Since the farmstay was brought into her space, she didn’t know if the farmstay on the other side was still there.

If it suddenly disappeared, it would probably scare a lot of people.

Maybe they would even suspect an alien invasion.

She thought helplessly and walked to the desk, turning around to sit down.

When she sank into the soft executive chair, she felt a bit of familiarity.

She narrowed her eyes, spun the chair, and sighed softly.

At this time, maybe because she bumped the table when she spun the chair.

The computer monitor on the desk suddenly lit up.

Xu Sangluo was stunned, then she made a surprised sound and sat up straight, looking at the monitor in surprise.

The farmstay was very sunny, just like her space, with no night.

And her farmstay had floor-to-ceiling windows or doors in many places.

If she didn’t pull the curtains, the interior was very bright.

She subconsciously thought that the farmstay didn’t have a power supply system, so the electricity here wouldn’t work, so she didn’t try it.

She didn’t expect that it had been installed with a power supply system, and there was actually electricity?

She suddenly thought of something and immediately picked up the mouse and clicked on the lock screen.

Then she saw the full network connection signal icon in the lower right corner, and her heart suddenly started to beat fast.

She unconsciously gripped the mouse, and her palms started to sweat.

After hesitating for two seconds, she moved the mouse and opened the browser.

Her computer was specially configured overseas, and its performance was very good.

As soon as she clicked the mouse, the window popped up.
