Du Yun did not leave, crying to Section Chief Sun, "I have something to do, Section Chief, and I don't have time to go shopping for the time being."
"What happened?"
"Two days ago, he asked me to help him get blue calico. Today I have sent him the blue calico they need, but they still want it, and they gave him a thousand."
Du Yun took out the one thousand yuan and looked at the thick pile. Section Chief Sun's eyes widened. He didn't expect that he would give so much.
"There are so many, so you can't delay the purchase."
"But if I go shopping, I don't have time to buy blue calico. This is a thousand dollars. How can I have so much time to help them purchase this.
Forget it, I'll ask the factory director whether I should buy blue calico for them first or go and buy it."
Section Chief Sun grabbed him and said, "Since I still want blue calico, you should work on this first."
"But I am a buyer, and purchasing is my job and I must do it well."
Section Chief Sun was unable to complain. You had no intention of purchasing in the first place. I really didn’t think I could see that you wanted to take this opportunity to rest.
Angrily, he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you should do this first."
"Is this possible? My job is purchasing."
Section Chief Sun's teeth were itching.
Is it okay? You told me that this is what you do. If you don’t do serious business, you do this. But who asked people to help experts? We can’t say anything.
The top priority is to expand the rolling mill first under the guidance of experts.
Taking the money, Du Yun felt happy, it really worked. This is because people are stupid and have too much money. At least from now on, this group is a typical example of people who are stupid and have too much money.
I can earn more than a thousand a month, and the daily expenses are taken care of by the factory, so I don’t have to spend any money at all. People don’t spend it however they want. It’s so easy to make money, so they don’t take it seriously.
But how to do it, that is the question.
Making blue calico is a highly technical craft. Sorry, we don’t have it here in Dujiacun.
It seems that we must go to Uncle Sun, he is the real talent in this field.
Arriving at Guanzhuang Village again, Du Yun looked around and found that Uncle Sun's house was not drying cloth.
There were blue calicoes blowing in the wind, but not a single one was in sight.
Even the racks and dyeing vats used for making blue calico have been put away and disappeared. It is completely impossible to tell that this is a small workshop for printing and dyeing cloth.
When Du Yun saw Uncle Sun, he couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Sun, why is there no cloth in your house?"
“What are you doing? It’s not profitable, so I’m done with it.”
Damn it, I wanted you to help make blue calico, but you actually told me to quit. How could this be possible?
"Can I see your drawings for making blue calico?"
"What's so good about this?"
"Just take a look and see what drawings you have and what kind of blue calico you can make."
They were all acquaintances. Uncle Sun thought for a moment and without objection, led him into the house, opened the box and showed him the template drawings.
Looking at the thick stack of template drawings, Du Yun said in surprise, "Uncle Sun, you have too many drawings at home, how many are there?"
"There are more than one hundred kinds. I dare say that there are not many people in the whole country who have as many printing drawings as I do."
Let me go, there are so many!
He never expected that Uncle Sun would have so many templates.
No matter how beautiful the blue calico is, it is undeniable that there are only two colors. Du Yun can only express his admiration for being able to create so many templates with two colors.
I took a closer look at his drawings. There are all kinds of patterns of flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds and animals, plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums. There are also phoenixes playing with peonies, red fish playing with lotus, wealthy vases, dragons and phoenixes showing auspiciousness, twin phoenixes playing with peonies, and auspicious cranes.
Mingxiang, Meikaiwufu and other combination patterns.
It has obvious homophony, metaphor, symbolism and beautiful meaning, and has strong local characteristics and rustic flavor.
This is using simple, original blue and white colors to create a simple, natural, ever-changing, and colorful blue and white art world.
"Uncle Sun, your skills are very good. If you can understand these drawings and make exquisite blue calico, everyone who sees it will be shocked and like it very much."
Uncle Sun was so proud that he couldn't help but raise his head proudly and look at people through his nostrils.
"Of course, my ancestors came from the south back then in order to promote the blue calico, preferably to make the emperor like it.
It's a pity that I was born at the wrong time. Let alone paying tribute to the emperor now, my ancestral property cannot be saved."
Du Yun nodded, knowing that he was right.
The general environment is like this. In the past few years, the war was in chaos. My own survival was not guaranteed, and I had no time to print and dye cloth.
But with his craftsmanship, there is absolutely no problem and it meets my requirements.
Originally, he thought he had to find a way to find a batch of blueprints so that he could produce blue calico that satisfied Andre.
It’s no problem now.
But how to do it? It’s not easy.
This is Guanzhuang Village, not Dujia Village. If Uncle Sun is allowed to make blue calico here, only Uncle Sun and Guanzhuang Village will benefit.
"You can actually make another batch."
"What are you doing? Do you think I still have room for this?"
Du Yun looked around. There were only a few pieces of broken furniture in Uncle Sun's house. The house was bare and there was nowhere to get blue calico.
If you can’t live on your own, why do you do anything?
Of course, the most important thing is that the price of blue calico is relatively expensive.
Blue calico is a manual printing and dyeing process. Is it possible for you to compete with machine printing and dyeing on price?
Even if it later becomes impossible to compete with machine-printed and dyed cloth, it will be twice or even three times more expensive.
The people are not rich to begin with, but they have to spend two or three times the price to buy cloth. Who has the spare money?
If we have that money, let’s buy some food to satisfy our stomach, okay?
"Do you have any leftover blue calico? Get me some."
"Where do I still have it? I no longer have it."
Du Yun directly took out a wad of money and put it in front of him. Uncle Sun's eyes widened and he stared at the wad of money. It must be at least several hundred.
Oh my God, when has he ever seen so much money?
"Uncle Sun, I was forced to buy some blue calico this time. You have to help me."
"Here, let me give it a try. I still have some on hand, but you have to see for yourself whether they are suitable or not."
With the carrot of money hanging in front of him, Uncle Sun, who didn't take it seriously at first, immediately turned around the house and handed it to him as if he had been given blood.
Get a little here, a little there, and even take out the cloth from the bottom of the box that is reserved for marrying your daughter-in-law.
Du Yun saw it and felt it was pretty good, maybe it would make Andre and the others like it.
Many of them are old, but well preserved. What are these things called? Antiques.
For wealthy people, do they care about you? What they care about is that you don’t have any good things.
