Nongmen Xianggong is a koi

Chapter 16 Silly Girl

Jiang Mixia opened his mouth and explained, "It's heavy and it's heavy. Farmers, they do rough work and carry heavy things. The bamboo baskets made by my father are thick and durable. But the disadvantage is that it sinks a little bit, but most of the farmers are strong and don't feel heavy."

When weaving bamboo baskets, Jiang Mixia took Jiang Youcheng to bend the bracket out of the arc with great effort, and asked him curiously why he didn't thin it out, so that it would be easier to weave. Jiang Youcheng gave the reason just now what she said.

"Really." The man turned the bamboo basket over and saw that the bottom of the bamboo basket was indeed very strong and durable, so he just nodded, "There is some truth to what you said."

"Can you weave a lighter bamboo basket? It's smaller than this one, and it doesn't hold too heavy things. How can it be light and easy to carry?"

Jiang Mixia looked at Jiang Youcheng.

She knows only a little about technical matters.

Jiang Youcheng nodded, "Yes, the bamboo strips are thinner, narrower, and woven into a single layer. As long as you don't carry heavy things, they are also durable."

"Well." Jiang Mixia continued, "I just don't know how much you can ask for here?"

The father and daughter are simple and honest, and the other is smart, which is quite interesting.

The man smiled playfully, tapped the bamboo raft again, and said, "I'll take these two first, and you can follow what you said, make thinner and narrower bamboo rafts, and weave them into the same shape." Yes, if the size is much smaller than this bamboo basket, it should be enough."

While talking, the man made an approximate size, "Fifty."

fifty?
Today I brought a total of [-] things, and I sold them for [-] yuan. This is [-] yuan, which is a lot of money.

This has been working all year round, and the harvest in the field, including weaving wattle baskets, is only four or five taels of silver a year, which is enough for the whole family to eat, drink and chew all year round, and save a little money.

This one transaction is worth two or three months of harvest!
Jiang Youcheng wanted to rub his hands excitedly.

Jiang Mixia pursed her lips and smiled, "It's really not a small number, but this thing can be considered a custom-made one. It's best for our family to make it up first. You nodded, and then made it up if you think it's okay. , if you are not satisfied with the one compiled by then, neither side is suitable."

"It's better for our family to compile one first, and show it to you tomorrow, you nodded, we set the price, agreed on the delivery time, you pay a deposit, we sign a simple paper, and the deal is finalized What do you think?"

Unhurried, methodical, a business arrangement is proper, and the key points are also clearly stated.

"Not bad." The man looked at the young Jiang Mixia and nodded approvingly, "Just as you said."

"My name is Zhou Xing. I'm helping my master take care of a small tea garden in the west. I just took over and I'm short of things, so I came to the town for a stroll and bought some things that are handy."

Zhou Xing said, "When you make one tomorrow, send it to our tea garden. I'll take a look. If it's good, we'll settle the business. You go west, and when you reach the hillside, look for the Shaoji tea garden. Everyone in the area knows this tea garden, and it’s not hard to find it.”

To the west of the town, there are several hillsides.

Jiang Mixia has never been there, but I heard that there are several tea gardens, orchards, and flower fields, all of which are owned by rich and powerful families.

"It's all up to Manager Zhou, and I'll send it tomorrow." Jiang Mixia smiled and said, "Then these two bamboo baskets will be cheaper for Manager Zhou, so give them [-] Wen."

Silly girl hey.

When Jiang Youcheng heard Jiang Mixia's words, he became a little anxious.

It's such a big deal, why don't these two bamboo baskets be given away for nothing?
If Manager Zhou got angry because he didn't send these two bamboo baskets, and stopped doing this business, wouldn't it be a big loss...

Jiang Youcheng desperately winked at Jiang Mixia.

Jiang Mixia was helpless, but she couldn't explain it at this time, she just pretended she didn't see it.

"Brother, don't wink, your eyes are going to fly out." Zhou Xing laughed out loud, took out the money bag, counted forty money to Jiang Mixia, stacked the two bamboo baskets together, Picked up the bottom one.

Then, he stretched out his hand and patted Jiang Youcheng's shoulder, "Your daughter is much smarter than you. It will be good to listen to your daughter's words in everything from now on."

Watching Zhou Xing walk away, Jiang Youcheng scratched the back of his head again and again, then looked at Jiang Mixia with a blank expression, "What do you mean by that?"

"It means that it looks like a big deal, but it's not in our hands now. The money we can see may not necessarily fall into our pockets. It will be given away for nothing at this moment. If the other party lies, the bamboo basket will be useless." " Jiang Mixia said.

"Then what if this business is real?" Jiang Youcheng asked again.

"It's okay if it's true. If we set a good price tomorrow, we think we'll make a lot of money. If we want to give some money, we can give it a little bit. Even if we give some benefits alone, as long as the business has been agreed, it's okay."

Jiang Mixia said, "Generally speaking, if you don't see a rabbit, don't scatter eagles. One thing is another thing. Don't start serving soup bowls when you see a pancake in front of you. By then, there will be no pancakes and no soup pans." .”

Jiang Youcheng thought for a while, then nodded heavily, "That's the reason."

Then he laughed, "It's still a girl who sees it thoroughly and thinks clearly. Dad is so old that he is really confused."

"How can you have a daughter without a father?" Jiang Mixia grabbed Jiang Youcheng's arm, "Father, let's go and cut the meat."

"Let's go." Jiang Youcheng picked up his own bamboo basket, tidied up the hemp rope, and led Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun to the butcher's shop.

This time I ordered three catties of pork belly, and I plan to stew it for noon, and eat the rest slowly.

After buying the meat, Jiang Mixia proposed to buy another piece of tofu.

The little son-in-law is struggling to help the house at night, thinking about eating braised pork and fried tofu, so he has to be rewarded.

Having sold enough money today, Jiang Youcheng is also very generous, and he listens to Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun in everything.

At noon, the family once again had a good meal.

After eating and working hard, the whole family started thinking about weaving small bamboo baskets in the afternoon.

The bamboo strips should be thinner and narrower, and the bamboo strips used as the base should also pay attention to weight.

Jiang Youcheng was pondering over this matter, and at the same time kept trying to figure out how thick the bamboo strips should be, suitable for weaving, and durable for use.

And Jiang Mixia took a wooden stick and wrote and drew on the ground.

Song Jingyun tilted his head to look, "What is this?"

"Pattern." Jiang Mixia called Jiang Youcheng over, "Father, look at the picture I drew, which one is suitable for making up?"

Jiang Youcheng came over to take a look.

There are two types of baskets. One is a normal basket, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a big mouth and a small bottom. The other has a big mouth and a small bottom, but the middle neck is small, and the belly protrudes slightly.

"It's the same length as a vase, so I'm afraid it's not suitable." Jiang Youcheng said, "This big thing is stuck in the neck."
