Qiao Mingjin divided his troops into three groups.
Along the way, the fine products were sold to the Zhou family's carpentry shop. Along the way, with the help of the Yao family, the father, son, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to nearby villages, towns and Qingchuan city to sell them.
On the other hand, Yun Jin took a few sharp-tongued young men from the village to sell near Xiahe Village.
There are several villages near Xiahe Village, and Shangxiahe Village is very large. In addition, there are several villages around it.
What we sell here are rattan tables and chairs that are cheap, practical and not fancy.
If there is no one at home who can do carpentry, or there is no labor to go to the mountains to cut wood, buying a rattan table can be used as a dining table, a dressing table, a desk, or a table for placing various things. The price is not expensive, and it is better than hiring someone to do it.
A wooden table is still cheap, so it will probably not fail to sell.
If there are elderly people at home, it is also great to buy a rattan chair or rocking chair and let the elderly people sit in the courtyard to choose vegetables, do farm work, bask in the sun, take a lunch break, or spread out on it to sleep on summer nights.
It's not expensive, it's light and easy to carry, and it can be stacked high when not in use. If you buy one at home, it can be used for many purposes.
Yun Jin used Qiao Mingjin's family's ox-cart and horse-drawn carriage, and borrowed Sister Xiu's ox-cart to pull three full carts of rattan tables and chairs to a nearby village.
At dinner time that day, these people came back with the empty cart.
Several people looked so happy that they couldn't close their mouths with laughter. Yun Jin also complained to Qiao Mingjin, He and others that she had originally thought of going around to the Yunjia Village and leaving one or two rocking chairs for the Qiao family and the Yun family.
.
Who would have thought that every one that was damaged on the road would be snatched away.
The sack containing the money was thrown on the table by Yun Jin, making a loud thud.
Mrs. He couldn't wait to pull out the sack and count the coins. Mrs. Xia smiled and handed her the hemp rope.
Both of these women had seen a lot of silver ingots as big as a palm. But their eyes still shone when they saw this pile of copper coins.
Although there are only a few big silver coins, since the materials are free and only some labor and auxiliary materials and paint are paid for, although the sale is not expensive, after deducting the cost, you can make a lot of money.
The money earned from this day's sale saves the workshop's food expenses for two or three months.
Qiao Mingjin greatly praised the few young men who followed Yun Jin to sell in nearby villages, and let them have a hearty meal in the workshop. He also packed a lot of leftover vegetables and meat for them at home.
Let them carry it back.
A few young men seldom go out, and mostly work on the one-third of an acre of land at home. Now they have this opportunity to go out and work as foot traders, and they also get back a sack of coppers. They feel happy and happy in their hearts.
The achievements are unparalleled.
He pestered Qiao Mingjin and promised to go more often.
Qiao Mingjin agreed with a smile and promised to call them again as long as they had such a job. Then he sent the happy people away.
A few days later, Manager Zhou also came over and reported to her the sales situation in the shop.
Over the past year, the Zhou family's carpentry shop has become more and more famous.
Since a peacock with its tail carved from a wooden root was placed in the shop as a treasure of the shop, people from Qingchuan City, or those traveling from north to south, would go to the Zhou family's carpentry shop to take a look after hearing the news.
As more and more novel things are found in it, the Zhou family's carpentry shop becomes more and more famous. When it comes to making furniture or carpentry work in the city, most people think of Zhou Ji's carpentry shop.
Now that the rattan artwork comes out, it naturally attracts a crowd of onlookers. Even though the price is more expensive than Yunjin, it is still much cheaper than furniture made of heavy wood.
Rich people didn't take these small pieces of money seriously. Ordinary people thought the price was a good deal, so they put them in stores and almost sold them all.
The goods that were brought there were sorted and scraped away before they could even be stored in the warehouse.
Yao Ji's business also sold well. On the third day, Yao Ping also came to Xiahe Village in person to report the situation.
He originally wanted to use his own money to keep a set of tables and chairs in the store, and move two rocking chairs home for his wife and sisters-in-law to use, but he never wanted to sell them too quickly. There was nothing left. In the end, he only grabbed one rocking chair and put it in the store.
in the store.
On the one hand, it is for making samples, and on the other hand, it allows his father to rest for a while when no one is in the store.
Qiao Mingjin didn't take any money from him. It was considered as a gift to him.
Of course, the hard-earned money must also be accounted for him. The things produced by Yayi Workshop are sold in Yao Ji, and it is agreed that they will only be counted as selling money for him. They are not included in the partnership. After all, this workshop does not belong to her alone.
On the other hand, everyone involved in the production who received wages and dividends was extremely happy.
After the busy farming season, most of them are idle at home, and they are not tired from work. They don’t have to work in the fields with their backs to the sky and their faces to the soil in the mud and water. The money they get is higher than what they get when they go out to do odd jobs. Why don’t they let people
surprise.
Without anyone's instructions, they all went into the second batch of production.
The rattan wood was also continuously delivered to the workshop. Those with a unique vision went out to dig out the rattan like digging stakes, and Qiao Mingjin also calculated a suitable price and bought it with them...
Whether Xiahe Village is big or not, what happens in the village cannot be hidden from anyone who cares.
After the workshop started making rattan handicrafts, more people came to the workshops outside the village.
Grandmothers Sun and Yu wandered around the village leisurely every day, but they couldn't find two or three people with whom they could chat.
Almost all the places where children in the village play have been moved to the outskirts of the village.
The two sisters-in-law inquired about it, and their hearts bubbling with sadness.
It was inevitable that I would go home and learn a lesson from Mrs. Wu. Naturally, Mrs. Wu also cursed a few times under her breath, "Every day the sun shines like a demon child", but that was all.
Now whenever she hears that Qiao Mingjin is living a good life, she feels uncomfortable.
She waited for Qiao Mingjin to turn around and beg her for mercy, but she didn't wait for so long. Her life was many times better away from her in-law's family than in her in-law's family.
Many people pointed at her behind her back and laughed at her, but she didn't know it.
I just wish I could see her without food or clothing, and live a miserable life.
Sun and Yu usually had no way to get money, and they couldn't get one or two coins from Wu's mouth at home to save for their own house. After digging a few wooden stakes and being able to save two coins, it was natural.
Understand the benefits of money.
Naturally, everyone went back to their own houses at this time, and under the covers they each encouraged their men to ask Qiao Mingjin for work.
I heard that when I was working there, I often had mung bean soup or sugary snacks to eat.
They were embarrassed to come to Qiao Mingjin. Although they were so thick-skinned, Qiao Mingjin ignored them.
It must be hard for Qiao to refuse when she recruits her men to come to Qiao Mingjin to do some work. Didn't Qiao accept all the wooden stakes last time?
Yue Er was annoyed by Sun's melon noise. It was already summer and it was difficult to fall asleep. This woman was still clinging to him. She would lie in his ear and chatter endlessly, which was even more annoying than the cicada outside.
Yue Er was lying on the mat in cool clothes. He was upset by Sun's nagging. He covered his ears and turned sideways, then kicked him hard with his heel.
Sun immediately gritted his teeth and gasped. Within a moment, he rushed towards Yue Er, punching, kicking, tearing and biting him.
"You're still using your hands and feet? You're useless! She's not an outsider. What's the price of face? What's the point of asking for help? Can you still struggle with money?"
Yue Er became even more irritated after being beaten by Mrs. Sun. He sat up like a carp and said, "If you want to make a difference, then go and beg Wan'er's mother! I don't have the shame to ask for help. I usually can't eat all the food in the field."
I asked someone to give a handful of delicious food to Wan'er's mother. You would rather walk for a long time to carry it back to your mother's house to feed the pigs than go to your siblings' place. Now, how can I have the dignity to beg her!"
Sun became angry after hearing this and kicked him several times until he was pushed against the wall.
"Does she still need us to deliver food to her? The workers in that workshop have food that is many times better than ours! You can smell the aroma of meat from miles away. Your son runs there every day to smell it and then comes back.
She’s clamoring for meat, so we don’t need to send her food!”
In the dark night, Mrs. Sun's voice rose a little higher.
Yue Er's hair twitched when he heard it, and he shouted in a low voice: "She has what she has, and you give it to yourself. What does it have to do with each other? A handful of green vegetables is also a heartfelt thought, and the third brother and sister are not ignorant, she
I think of you so much, how can I not think of you? Now that it’s like this, I have to ask for it! I don’t have the face! I would rather go to the city to get odd jobs or go to Yongzhou Pier to carry bags! "
After hearing these words, Mrs. Sun was so angry that she gasped.
Do you still blame her for co-writing?
"Is it me who drives her mother away? Is it me who makes Yue Laosan marry an equal wife? Your family's affairs are not honest. It's all down to me!"
Yue Er was very angry, this girl couldn't explain to her!
He simply turned over, went to the end of the bed, took out a piece of outer clothing, held it in his hand, opened the door and walked out.
"Where are you going!"
"I'll go to the main room and sleep!"
"If you dare, sleep outside every day and don't enter this house!"
Mrs. Sun was so angry that she slapped the bed board.
On the other side, Mr. Yu was also whispering in Yue Si's ear.
It's just that the Yu family is much more tactful than the Sun family.
"I heard that the workshop that Third Sister-in-law is in charge of is hiring people. In the past years, she didn't go out much. I'm afraid she doesn't know a few people in the village. How can we hire people to do work without hiring someone who knows everything about it? Third Brother is not here, so we
Naturally, no one can deceive her."
Yu put one hand on Yue Si's waist, leaned forward and whispered in his ear.
"I also know those people that Third Sister-in-law invited. They are all honest and responsible people in the village. There is a lot of labor in the family and there are many mouths waiting for food. Third Sister-in-law invited them as a supplement."
Yue Si didn't even sleep, so he lay on the bed and chatted with Mr. Yu.
"It's like knowing people but not their hearts. It's better to hire people from your own people. We don't have much work in the field right now, and my father can handle that amount of work alone. We still have northern trees to raise. In the future,
I still want to send him to school, but we don’t have two big bucks. How about you ask the third sister-in-law if there is any work arrangement for you. Even if you don’t pay wages, you can get two meals.
The family can also save some food rations."
"You are the only one who can still think about this family. But the third sister-in-law will not deny her wages." Yue Si touched Yu's face.
"Wouldn't that be better? Beishu is getting older too, and I would like to add one or two more brothers and sisters to him. How can we do it if we don't have any money?"
"Well, it's really time to give Beishu a younger brother and sister..." Yue Si said and started to move his hands.
Both hands quickly slipped into Yu's slightly open lapel.
"I'm telling you something serious."
"What we are doing now is business." Yue Si said as he flipped over and fell on top of Yu.
"Listen to me first... oh, please be gentler... don't bite there... How about I go to the third sister-in-law tomorrow and ask her if she has any work to do..."
Yue Si lay on Yu's soft body and responded vaguely. Now he is on the right track, so there is no way he can be distracted. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly vote, you
Your support is my greatest motivation.)
ps: Seeing that there are still people reading it so late, I decided to post this chapter. I’m so excited. I missed perfect attendance by just a few minutes... Please comfort me and give me a pink ticket for recommendation... Thanks
