The south of the city is considered the poorest place in Jiyun City. It is the gathering place for civilians in the city. The streets here are the longest and narrowest in the city, the houses are the most shabby, and the shops are all small and messy shops.

It is the most densely populated place in the city, with nearly 40% of the city's population living here.

Uncle Gan led Ding Yi through the alleys. The entire road was already crowded with carnival crowds. Being able to find the nearest passage familiarly, Uncle Gan's ability was also extraordinary.

The half-hour journey took nearly an hour. If Ding Yi had walked by himself, it would have taken at least longer. Ding Yi invited Uncle Gan to come in and sit down. The taciturn man just said "no" and put it down.

The package left.

Looking at Uncle Gan's deserted back, Ding Yi was thoughtful.

The whole family was at home, and Ding Yi was surprised that his family didn't worry about him. But when Ding Yi brought back such a big package, everyone had some normal reactions.

"Previously, Vice-Principal Wang of your school sent someone to say that he would take you to his relatives to repair the puppets. We were still expecting you to come back tomorrow," Wu Shuhui said.

Ding Yi looked at his sister and said, "Originally they wanted to keep me, but I was afraid that my sister wouldn't be able to find me, so I hurried back."

Ding Yun said: "I was watching the floats, and someone came over and told me about it. I just came back and told my parents." The implication was that Ding Yi was still complaining, because Ding Yi didn't enjoy himself to the fullest.

It was getting dark now, and Xu Manli had to stay in school because of the Harvest Festival. This is the tradition of Jiyun City. Every year during the Harvest Festival, the school will hold a three-day festival celebration and a three-day bonfire party. The whole city is like this

The three days also entered into a noisy and festive carnival.

"Ah, Xiao B, what kind of amazing machine did you repair this time? This gift in return will be so generous." Wu Shuhui shouted in the room.

It turned out that the package was full of sun-dried mountain delicacies: various delicious mushrooms and dried meat. Xiu Xiu used small cloth bags to hold all kinds of mountain delicacies, and each one was marked with the name of the mountain delicacy.

Name. This big bag of thirty or forty kilograms of mountain goods is worth no less than fifty or sixty gold yuan. No wonder Wu Shuhui screamed.

Wu Shuhui had never seen many rare treasures before, but based on her understanding of the ingredients from working in the market, she also estimated that the value of these dry goods was astonishing.

People in the yard rushed over, and suddenly they saw Wu Shuhui explaining to everyone: "This is bamboo fungus, Hericium erinaceus, this is truffle, this is chicken fir, this is red mushroom..." There are also many ingredients with labels on the bags.

It was marked, but Wu Shuhui had never seen it.

"That family is already rich. It's nothing. You see, they even gave me a gold pen." Ding Yi took out the pen from his jacket pocket and shook it. He did not take out the other pen in his pocket.

Something, that piece of jade talisman.

The entire property of the Ding family combined could not be worth the value of this package, but Ding Zhaoding was used to it. This son always brought them some novel things from time to time. He winked with Ding Yi, and the father and son

After walking into the yard, Wu Shuhui and Ding Yun went to pack up the things that Ding Yi brought home.

"What on earth is going on?" Ding Zhaoding asked.

Ding Yi took out the gold pen again: "This is a cultivation item, a cultivation item that can interfere with mental fluctuations. That problem is solved."

"You mean, which side took action?" Ding Zhaoding asked.

Ding Yi nodded.

Ding Zhaoding was silent for a moment and said: "Our family has been involved in the struggle between cultivators again. No one can be offended by us. Now we have to be careful every step of the way. We just want to be safe, but this is slightly uncomfortable.

To be careful is to be doomed. Xiao Yi, you must be more cautious and cautious, and you can’t make any mistakes."

Ding Yi nodded.

Xu Rongfa brought Duoduo and Lu Shiji to the Ding family in the evening. Wu Shuhui cooked several dishes and Duoduo brought good wine. In the yard, everyone exchanged glasses to celebrate the harvest festival.

The arrival of Duoduo and Lu Shiji heralded that these two backbones of Xu Ji were finally drawn into the new establishment by Xu Rongfa.

This puppet workshop.

"Old Ding, this machinery, equipment, and raw materials will be in place after the holiday. As for personnel, I can deploy fifteen skilled technicians as a team. How are you preparing?" Xu Rongfa asked.

Ding Zhaoding said: "According to your original explanation, I have recruited more than twenty young guys. As for the young guys who can work, there are as many as they need. They can come to work here after the holidays."

"Old Ding, there is one more important thing I forgot to tell you, and that is the workshop we are cooperating with. I wonder if you have thought of a name for it. After this festival, you have to register at the city hall and you will need it soon." Xu Rongfa

reminded.

Ding Zhaoding thought for a while and said: "Our store is a cooperation between two companies, how about we call it Ding Xuji?"

"This is not good. I don't want Xu Ji's side to find out now that this name is too sensitive. When Xu Ji's people see the name, they will know that I have tried too hard here. No, this is absolutely not allowed." Xu Rongfa denied.

He made such a suggestion. He turned around and asked Ding Yi: "Xiao Yi, why don't you give me a name? Speaking of which, you are the real core of this puppet shop. It is because of you that the Ding and Xu families came together. You

Just give it a name."

"Let's call it Xintiandi." Ding Yi thought for a moment and said.

"This is a good name. It creates a new world. I like it." Duoduo agreed.

Ding Zhaoding was originally going to call him Xinglong, Wanchang, Xinfa, etc., but after Duoduo said so, he agreed. Of course Xu Rongfa had no objection. The nomination of his son-in-law coincided with his wishes, so there was no way he could disagree.

reason.

The next step was the staffing, training and other detailed issues. Everyone started to discuss it again. Duoduo and Lu Shiji had no objections to this. Anyway, they were getting double salary. That was what the bosses said.

After a night of silence, the family got up early the next day and all went to Qianyu, where the Ding and Xu families jointly run a workshop.

This was Ding Yi’s first time coming to Xintiandi’s workshop. After visiting the entire factory, Ding Yi quietly stayed in the open space that was about to become the workshop and began to think about it. So the layout and structure of the entire workshop appeared in Ding Yi’s

In the imaginary space, where to place what machines, how to plan them... After a while, the three-dimensional structure of the entire workshop appeared in Ding Yi's mind.

Unlike in Xuji, the entire structure there has been formed, and at that time Ding Yi's understanding of puppet making was still very superficial. Now after such a long period of study, it can be said that his understanding of puppetry has gradually surpassed

A lot.

As Shaodong of this Xintiandi company, he can be said to have considerable authority. Ding Zhaoding also found that whether it was Xu Rongfa, Duoduo, or Lu Shiji, they almost completely listened to Ding Yi in terms of puppet making. This made Ding Zhaoding feel a little proud.

At the same time, I also felt a little guilty.

Also coming with the Ding family was a neighbor who was responsible for the construction of this puppet shop. It was this man named Uncle Qiang by Ding Yi who was responsible for the overall renovation of this puppet shop. Uncle Qiang also made a mistake and never thought that Ding Yi was the owner of this workshop.

The master planning designer was still discussing the renovation of the workshop with Ding Zhaoding with great interest.

Ding Yi used sharp gravel to redraw all the designs in his mind.

Calling Uncle Qiang over, pointing to the sketch on the ground, Ding Yi directly arranged it for Uncle Qiang. Uncle Qiang found it funny: "Xiao Yi, you can't make random changes. This place was already agreed with your father and the others.

,Why are you also interested in construction?"

Ding Zhaoding came over. He remembered what Xu Rongfa said before replying to Xu Ji yesterday.

'Old Ding, all you need to do is recruit people and improve logistics. Let Xiao Yi do the other things. He is much better than us in this aspect.'

"Listen to Xiao Yi and change whatever he says. My son has the final say here." Ding Zhaoding said half jealously and half proudly.

"How can this be done? How old is Xiao Yi? The renovation of this workshop is no child's play. Old Ding, we are neighbors. That's why I remind you that this little guy..." Uncle Qiang kindly advised.

"Listen to Xiao Yi, I can trust my son." Ding Zhaoding patted Uncle Qiang on the shoulder, turned and left, leaving only a

Uncle Qiang with a dull face.

Soon Xu Rongfa also brought Duoduo and Lu Shiji to Xintiandi. Uncle Qiang knew that these were partners of the Ding and Xu families. He sincerely felt that Ding Zhaoding was unreliable, so he quickly stepped forward to report the matter to Xu Rongfa.

"Let's change it according to Xiao Yi's design. We all believe in him." Xu Rongfa expressed his attitude again. Only then did Uncle Qiang realize that this young master was no ordinary kid.

The changes to the workshop set by Ding Yi are relatively large. Several walls need to be demolished and the roof needs to be rebuilt. The entire workshop renovation will take ten days to complete. However, Xintiandi gave Uncle Qiang time.

There are only five days, but in two days there will be more than forty young men who can cooperate with the work, so it should be possible to finish it with some effort.

Ding Yun also quit her job. Her task was to cooperate with Wu Shuhui in logistics. After all, the workshop at this time had an unwritten agreement, and the workshop had to take care of the food.

In a blink of an eye, the harvest festival was over, and Jiyun City returned to its original appearance. The people of the Ding family have been very busy these days. Although Uncle Qiang's staff is not in place yet, there are still a lot of things to do.

Buying some furnishings and daily necessities made the Ding family almost exhausted.

Wu Shuhui basically moved half of the Ding family's belongings to Qianyu. People who are used to living in poverty are always scrupulous about spending every penny. This makes the men of the Ding family have to work hard with dogs.

Same.

The Harvest Festival was finally over, and all the employees recruited by Ding Zhaoding were in place. Fifteen employees from Xu Ji were arranged to enter Xintiandi. Finally, there were more people and more strength. They hurriedly and slowly completed the project on time according to Ding Yi's design.

Transformation.

There was no celebration or anything like that. Wu Shuhui made hundreds of wedding cakes and took Ding Yi and Ding Yun to visit the surrounding neighbors one by one. This was the completion of the groundbreaking ceremony for Xintiandi.

Xintiandi is completely producing the one-horned fairy puppet designed by Ding Yi. Unlike the sample, considering the ex-factory price of the finished product and some characteristics of the raw materials, Ding Yi and Duoduo had to spend a lot of effort on research and development, and finally completed the final product.

settings.

Even so, the price of each unit of the Unicorn is still nearly twice as expensive as the Buffalo Puppet. Xu Rongfa spent a lot of effort and failed to sell a single unit, because the inherent model makes it difficult for the mining owners to accept this weird thing.

The price of each new type of puppet is one or two times more expensive than the original bison puppet. When this kind of puppet is brought back to the mine, its weird shape will also cause a lot of trouble in transportation...

…

In the end, it was Ding Yi who went to Jiang Ji to find Jiang Bingkun in person, and it was Jiang Ji who finally tried to buy two of them.

Ding Yi and Duoduo went to Qishan in person to guide Jiang Ji's mine staff in the construction. At the same time, a bison puppet was also transported to the site for comparison.

It can be seen that Jiang Bingkun and Jiang Ji bought two Unicorn puppets just out of repayment of gratitude. Jiang Ji did not pay much attention to this new type of puppet that was not easy to transport.

However, when the strange-looking digging puppet started working with full firepower, the person in charge of Jiang Ji became uneasy because this one-horned fairy was really easy to use.

Duoduo conservatively estimated that the rhinoceros beetle should be more than five times more effective than the bison golem. The results of the experiment far exceeded their design. At least ten times.

Moreover, the way the bison puppet works is by impact, which can easily cause the collapse of the working surface, while the horned fairy drills holes in a high-speed rotation, and the horn of the horned fairy can also adjust the angle, making it suitable for tasks where the buffalo puppet cannot work.

Mining surface. It can be said that this new type of puppet is set up for mining excavation, which is really easy to use.

This is a timely opportunity for Jiang Ji. Due to the mining surface, the shallow mines are basically mined, and the mining of deep ores is very difficult, and due to the working method of the bison puppet, it is easy to cause collapse. Jiang

Ji's steel plant is facing a serious shortage of ore. Jiang Ji's steel plant is now in a state of half production and half shutdown. The appearance of this one-horned fairy puppet can be regarded as solving Jiang Ji's big trouble.
