Chapter 129 There is a way to make money
Four rolls of film were taken during the opening ceremony today, and Gu Keai plans to develop the photos after closing the store in the evening.
Tongqian and her two best friends rode their bikes home.
When Tongqian got home, Lao Yuan asked her, "How many rolls of film did you take for the opening today?"
"About four rolls of film."
"How much? Four rolls of film."
"Yeah! I saw classmate Gu taking four rolls of film and going to develop photos."
"You set the price twice as much as mine, which is 20% off, so you can make a lot of money!"
"I don't know, how much can I earn?"
"At least 800 yuan."
"Oh, I can earn so much."
Now I can make a lot of money. I can make 200 yuan from one roll of film.
"You can earn in one day what I make in half a month."
Tongqian also understood Lao Yuan’s income, which was about two thousand yuan a month.
"Yes, classmate Gu has good vision. There are many people in the city who accept to have their photos taken. And there is no one taking photos around here at all." Tongqian proudly showed off to Lao Yuan.
"You little fool." Old Yuan turned around helplessly and went into the dark room.
Tongqian was standing outside, looking somewhat unbelievable. After a moment's pause, he went up to the third floor.
Tongqian still seizes every opportunity to read Chinese medicine books.
The next morning she arrived at the store and looked into Gu Keai's sleepy eyes. He had just gotten up and opened the door.
"Have you developed all the photos?" asked Tongqian.
"Go to the dark room and take a look." Gu Keai said while washing.
Tongqian pushed the door open and entered the darkroom. He saw two trays full of photos, and the iron bars of the darkroom were also full of photos cooling. There were so many photos on four rolls of film.
"Well, I have something to do today. I have to re-cut the edges of these and put each family into a paper bag." Tongqian looked at so many photos and thought about the next work.
"Okay, just take your time. They can't come to get the photos right away. I said they can come back in three days." Gu Keai advised her not to rush.
"Then why did you spend a whole night to wash it out?" Tongqian asked him back.
"I just wanted to develop them to see how my photos turned out." Gu Keai said with a helpless smile.
"Didn't you feel relieved yesterday? Why are you so anxious to verify it again?" Tongqian blamed him for not resting all night. How could he have the energy to deal with a day's worth of visitors today?
"No problem, I can still endure a night without sleep." Gu Keai comforted her again.
Gu Keai had finished washing and dressed neatly before Tongqian. With a smile on her face, she asked Tongqian, "Guess how much money we collected yesterday?"
"How much? A thousand?"
"1168 yuan." Gu Keai accurately reported yesterday's income.
"Very good! There will be less today. How about today? Go out and find something you like to eat." Tongqian ordered Gu Keai to go out and find something to eat.
Gu Keai went out to eat, and Tongqian went to the photo room to pack up clothes and put the tables, chairs and benches in order.
Tongqian took out the glue and cut the paper to make paper bags to hold everyone's photos.
At this time, a young couple came in, looked at the military uniform photos, and decided to take a photo. Tongqian took out the appropriate military uniforms for them, and while they were changing clothes, Gu Keai came back after eating.
As soon as she saw a customer coming, Gu Keai immediately went to the darkroom to take out the camera, which had already been loaded with film, and started shooting the first roll of film of the day.
The young couple took a photo together and then took an individual photo respectively.
When we were leaving, I told him that if there were two people, two photos would be enough, and if there was one person, only one photo would be enough.
"Then we each will have a photo of ourselves together. You take mine and I'll take yours." The man said to her girlfriend.
Tongqian heard that the two people probably didn't live together, so he asked, "Are you living in different places?"
"Yes, we have been assigned back to our original places. He is in the south. He will leave tomorrow. Can I get the photos tomorrow? If I can, I won't have to mail them later." The lady said somewhat sadly.
"I'll try to wash it out for you as quickly as possible. Come and have a look tomorrow morning." Tongqian said with a smile.
The beginning of the day determined that I would have to develop photos tonight.
Today is still a busy day. Tongqian is busy cutting and assembling photos.
Gu Keai took photos sporadically and almost continuously.
By the evening, Tongqian was no longer in a hurry to leave. Today, after getting the key to the house, she decided to stay in the store with Gu Keai for a while longer.
In the evening, Tongqian asked Gu Keai, "You still need to develop photos tonight, right? How many rolls of film do you need today?"
"Today there are obviously fewer photos, and we haven't taken two yet." Gu Keai said.
"This is already pretty good. Don't be greedy. It's enough to just develop one roll of film today." Tongqian was very satisfied with the turnover.
Tongqian calculated in his mind again. If the turnover remained like this in the future, the income of this store would be around 10,000 yuan per month.
Not bad, not bad, there is a future for making money.
