Chapter 129 Friendship is Friendship

"5 yuan?"

Hearing Xu Jingxing's quotation, Old Man He's eyes widened in surprise.

Xu Jingxing shrugged, "I said, Uncle He, I'm still not satisfied. This is already a friendship price. If it were someone else, it would be at least [-]."

"No, no, no, I'm not dissatisfied, but I think it's too low. It's only 5 yuan. What can I do with this money?" Old man He quickly explained, "Although I don't understand the market, I also know that the more expensive the material , the reason is that the higher the salary, and let alone how much your craftsmanship is worth, the design drawing is more than 5 yuan, right? It’s tens of thousands to find a random designer these days.”

"It's the same reason, but your work is really not too much trouble, it's just a little more thought, the asking price is too high, I feel sorry for myself, besides, we are a little friendly, I want to kill you. I can't do that," Xu Jingxing quickly explained, in fact, he really didn't want too much money, firstly, he felt that old man He's grandson and grandson were quite pitiful; secondly, he admired old man He's character, no matter what he donated What is the purpose of going to the money? The act of donating money is actually benefiting many people.

But I can't say this clearly, so I just pretend to be confused, and charge a little less if I can. Although old man He may not be short of that little money, it is also his own mind. No matter whether old man He cares or not, his Just make up your mind.

Old man He didn't listen to his explanation, waved his hands and said: "Friendship is friendship, wages are wages, and brothers are still clear about accounts." He took out his mobile phone and transferred money directly to him, "I won't give you too much, 10 Ten thousand yuan, isn’t that much?”

After talking about this point, Xu Jingxing stopped being hypocritical and said with a wry smile, "It's not a lot."

10 yuan is indeed a lot. After all, Xu Jingxing's current reputation is really not worth that much money. It is only the price for him to make a set of furniture for Xu Zhikang. Carving such a seal is less difficult than making furniture, especially the cost. The time is relatively short.

It is normal for a set of furniture to take ten days and half a month from design to completion, but it only took two days to carve this seal.

Earning 10 yuan in two days was simply unimaginable for him before, but now he is still a little uneasy, feeling that the money earned is not so solid.

Of course, he also knows that this is because he has not adapted to his current status. Now he is no longer the young man struggling for life, but a budding sculptor. With a bigger name, his net worth will rise, and he will make money faster in the future.

If a more famous engraver were to carve this seal, the salary should be upwards of 20 if the level is the same. As Xu Jingxing said before, the salary is calculated according to the material cost, which is generally the material cost. 15.00% to 20.00%, when this bloodstone is worth several million, it is nothing at all to charge 30 to [-].

It was Xu Jingxing who was just a fledgling and honest kid who was afraid that he would charge too much money.

Not long after, Xu Jingxing received a text message from the bank to remind him that there was an additional 10 yuan in his account.

Once he got the wages, he didn't plan to dawdle, and said to the old man: "Uncle He, I have nothing else to do and I'm leaving."

"Hey, what's the hurry, dinner is ready, let's go after eating," old man He grabbed him and refused to let him go.

Xu Jingxing couldn't laugh or cry at once, and hurriedly refused, "No, I won't disturb your grandpa and grandson's dinner."

"Don't go, don't go, I still have something to do with you," Old Man He said hurriedly.

"What's the matter? Tell me," Xu Jingxing had no choice but to ask patiently.

"I will talk about it at the dinner table later."

Well, this old man He is determined to keep the meal, forget it, let’s have another meal, anyway, he has already eaten lunch, and this dinner is not bad, so let’s talk to the old man and the little girl up.

Thinking of this, he no longer persisted.

But he was not idle, rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen, helping the old man to do it together, and asking the little girl how her daughter was doing at school from time to time. Thought they were a family.

The meal was even richer, and Xu Jingxing also showed his skills and made a Wensi tofu soup.

Wensi Tofu Soup is a famous Huaiyang dish with a long history. The selection of ingredients is very strict, and the requirements for knife skills are particularly high. Tofu must be cut into hair-thin shreds to be considered qualified. The shiitake mushrooms, ham, chicken breast and other ingredients are stewed together. The taste is mellow, soft and tender. It is definitely a good dish for all ages.

Moreover, ordinary restaurants do not have this dish at all, because this dish requires too much knife skills. It is much more difficult to cut the soft and tender tofu into hair-like shreds than to cut potato shreds. I don't have such skills, so I can barely do it, and I can only make a pot of tofu strips or tofu paste.

But for someone like Xu Jingxing who also relies on his hands to eat, the difficulty is not that great. In addition, his craftsmanship is getting more and more exquisite now, cutting a pot of shredded tofu is really nothing.And he didn't cut it on a cutting board, but took the tofu in his hands and soaked it in water, so as to avoid the shredded tofu from sticking to the knife.

With his movements, a piece of tofu about one catty in his hand slowly turned into strands of tofu as thin as hair. There is actually a kind of effect of ink and wash fading, which is very poetic.

Perhaps, this is the origin of the name Wensi Tofu.

The old man He and the little girl on the side were stunned for a long time. When a pot of clear and fragrant Wensi tofu came out of the pot, the grandfather and grandson came back to their senses, "Xiao Xu, I, Lao He, have never served it in my life. Who, but to you, I only have four words to say, willing to bow down, really."

Xu Jingxing was also quite complacent, "Don't dare to boast about anything else. This cooking skill, hehe, is not bad compared to yours. Speaking of which, it's the first time I cook this dish, even my sister has never eaten it before. Hahaha."

"It's a great honor for us to say that, we must have a good taste. What a pity, I forgot to record the video just now. If I record it, it will be a kind of enjoyment to watch every day. It's simply amazing. I never thought that tofu can be eaten It can be cut into such fine wires."

"Practice makes perfect, there's nothing special about it, haha," Xu Jingxing laughed, "Eat and eat, niece, eat more, I'm sure you will be able to think like a spring, and you will come first in the exam every time."

"Thank you little Uncle Xu," the little girl thanked obediently, then took a spoon and bowl to old man He and Xu Jingxing to scoop up a small bowl respectively, and then sat down and started eating.
