Chapter 24

"Cooperate sincerely with Manager Zhou, so I dare not ask for more at this price, especially for this bamboo basket, which is used in a large amount in the tea garden, much more than bamboo baskets. Not at this price."

Zhou Xing has seen these things everywhere in the past few days, and some people have come to recommend his own things, and the prices are almost the same.

It's just that the appearance of this thing is still a little bit worse than what Jiang's father and daughter made.

Most of the peasants are honest and honest, but it is precisely because of this that they are often fearful and lack of courage, or because they are too honest, they appear a little stupid, and many times I can’t understand the key points after talking to them for a long time.

As for this Jiang Mixia, besides being down-to-earth, she is not lacking in wisdom. Dealing with her is worry-free and quite at ease.

"Yes." Zhou Xing agreed to the matter with a full mouth, and found an experienced man to determine the number of bamboo hats and bamboo baskets needed.

The bamboo hats are more than the baskets, sixty pieces are needed, and the bamboo baskets are different according to the size, so a total of one hundred pieces are needed together.

In the end, the total sum was eight taels of silver.

Still half a month delivery.

Moreover, the two families agreed that in the future, the sporadic bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo hats, bamboo baskets, etc. needed by Shaoji Tea Garden would all be ordered from Jiang Mixia's family.

After the two parties negotiated, Zhou Xingjie settled the money and paid another two taels of silver as a deposit for this business.

After staying for a long time until returning home, Jiang Youcheng still felt that the money in his hands was not real enough.

"Lady, slap me."

"Why hit you?" Liu felt puzzled.

"Why do I always feel like I'm dreaming." Jiang Youcheng sniffled, "So much money..."

It's not that the family didn't have so much money before.

Before Song Jingyun came in, Jiang Youcheng and Liu had saved more than ten taels of silver. At that time, they sent ten taels to Song Jingyun's uncle's family, which was regarded as a betrothal gift for Song Jingyun's visit.

But that money was saved by Jiang Youcheng and Mrs. Liu for many years, penny by penny, for more than ten years.

But now, these two businesses together only take more than a month, and you can get ten taels of silver!
Jiang Youcheng sniffled again.

Because of the excitement, the corners of his eyes were sour, and his nose couldn't stop running.

"You look like you have never seen the world." Liu looked at her man with contempt, "If you earn more money in the future, won't you even be unable to stand firmly?"

"Where can it be?" Jiang Youcheng wiped his nose, "This will be considered a long-term business with the tea garden in the future. According to Zhou Guanshi, there are still many things I want in the future, and we can see each other every month. money."

"After the delivery of this batch of goods, I'll also go and have a look at the wood and so on. I'll renovate our house and make it more comfortable to live in."

"Again, I'm thinking that we still have some money in our hands now, and we can earn money in the future. Don't be so picky about the white flour and rice at home, and eat as much as you should. If it's not enough, we can buy more."

To make money is to make life easier.

It's okay for the old couple to work harder, the two children can't always suffer along with them.

What's more, I have to do the work of weaving bamboo baskets now. If I don't eat well, I don't have the energy to do it.

"I know, don't worry." Liu nodded.

When making dinner that day, Mrs. Liu stewed a piece of potato cubes with minced meat. The original black flour pancakes were replaced with stick noodles and white flour Erhe noodles steamed buns. There are rice grains.

Although cornmeal is also coarse grains, it tastes sweet, and when mixed with white flour, it is said to be steamed corn bread, but it is also soft, and the taste is not bad.

Both Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun ate very sweetly.

Jiang Youcheng didn't eat dinner at home, but went to Da Fang's house with four small strings of money.

Settling Jiang Chunshi and Fang's wages for helping to make tea-picking bamboo baskets last time, they also went to sit in the big room by the way.

When Jiang Youcheng came back, he was slightly drunk.

The next day, the whole family started a new busy.

Cut bamboo, saw bamboo, split bamboo, slice bamboo...

Jiang Mixia, Jiang Chunshi and Liu are in charge of doing this, while Jiang Youcheng and Song Jingyun are in charge of making things up.

Weng and son-in-law are both familiar hands now, and they can make up more than ten in one day.

According to this posture, it is estimated that the goods can be delivered in advance.

There is still plenty of time, so everyone didn't get up too early and stay late, and just rushed forward normally.

Seeing that Jiang Youcheng's house was also busy, after Jiang Chunshi helped cut enough bamboo, he started to pick up saws, planes, chisels and other tools in the past two days, and tried to make some chairs, benches and other small things.

First of all, practice your skills and maintain the feel of your hands so as not to make your hands raw.

Secondly, familiarity makes perfect. After making these small things for a long time, you will have the confidence to make big ones, and then you will be able to estimate the materials and man-hours.

But while he was busy, he didn't forget Jiang Mixia's request for a puppet a few days ago, so he took the time to carve out a puppy and showed it to her.

The palm-sized puppet looks like an ordinary pastoral dog, sticking out its tongue and wagging its tail.

It can't be said to be vivid, but it can be regarded as very good-looking.

"Brother's craftsmanship is really good." Jiang Mixia repeatedly praised.

To be honest, this skill was at least beyond her expectations.

Being praised by his youngest cousin, Jiang Chunshi scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, "Master didn't let me learn how to carve, so I learned it secretly. Don't try to make me happy, I still know how I am. How many catties and taels."

"I didn't fool the big brother, I just really praised it." Jiang Mixia pursed her lips and smiled, "But this puppy is good-looking, but it is not fresh enough. The puppets outside are almost like this."

"I can really help my elder brother draw some pictures. Do you want my elder brother to make some puppets according to the drawings while doing carpentry, and then see if I can make more money."

"Okay." Jiang Chunshi nodded without thinking.

His craftsmanship is average, and he has just started to do carpentry by himself. He has to make materials for tables, chairs and benches by himself to see if he can sell them. The business will definitely not be so good.

Carving puppets in my free time would be the best thing if I could exchange them for money.

Try more, find more ways.

"I'll get you a pen and paper."

Jiang Chunhe occasionally wants to draw furniture at home. There are paper and pens at home. Although they are rough, they are barely usable.

"Brother, just take the paper, I have a pen here." Jiang Mixia shook the charcoal stick in his hand.

Although she can barely write two characters with a brush, she is still not used to drawing, and it is much easier to use a charcoal stick as a pencil.

Seeing this, Jiang Chunshi went home and took a few pieces of paper for Jiang Mixia to draw.

Jiang Mixia took the charcoal strips wrapped in cloth strips, and "shuashua" several strokes on the paper, and several cartoon images suddenly appeared on the paper.

 Rolling around for everything, I recommend the author to complete the farming articles "The Farmer's Stepmother Farms Skillfully", "The Eldest Sister is a Rich One", "Smell Fragrance", "The Little Cute Daughter-in-Law"
