The clothing store had been open for a month and, after deducting rent, utilities, and labor costs, made a profit of six thousand two hundred. Xue Mao and Xiao Qiu were paid eighty a month, while Lu Jiajie's salary was three hundred.
Because business was good, any jealous competitors who came to cause trouble were handled by Lu Jiajie, who also stayed in the store to guard it at night. If not for the fact that he wasn't very discreet and didn't stand his ground firmly enough, he could have been put in charge of the business.
After receiving the money, Lu Jiajie told her he wanted to go to Yangcheng City to see if he could bring back a batch of goods to sell. If he did, the profit could at least double.
