Reborn Craftsman

The freshly felled southern bamboo has a high water content. Basically, a large southern bamboo with a cross-sectional diameter of about 1993 to [-] centimeters will weigh about a hundred catties, which is about one yuan. [-] was already very good, so the round-faced vendors were impatient. This was a big customer that was rarely encountered in a day.

Seeing this scene, the other vendors were immediately unhappy, and they chased up to stop Liu Dagen, but in the end they were fooled by the bald middle-aged man.

The bald middle-aged man clasped his arms and said with a sneer, "Are you guys stupid? What kind of good business could it be that my Lao Wang didn't make a deal? The three of them just bought a dozen bamboos, and they still have to pay for the shipping." The kind, hum! Ten yuan a thousand catties, I think you are thinking too much."

As soon as these words came out, all the vendors were stunned for a moment, and then dispersed in despondency.

However, after waiting for a long time, the round-faced vendor ran out excitedly, dragged a short vendor he knew, and ran towards his open space.

"Why?" The short peddler stared at the round-faced peddler.

"What can I do! I've received a big deal, and the quantity of Nanzhu is not enough, so I need you to talk to the boss!" The round-faced peddler continued.

"Boss? Are you talking about those three people just now?" asked the short peddler with a dining chair.

"It's them! As long as the quality of your southern bamboo is good, I think they will buy all of them. My family has more than four tons of southern bamboo, and they want all of them!" Yang: "See, I've got all the money, so I almost sent Nanzhu there."

"Damn, then why did Lao Wang say that these three bosses are small businesses?" The short vendor looked at the hundred-dollar bill with envy: "It turns out that you can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour. It's really not a good thing."

"You just know!" The round-faced vendor lowered his voice: "According to my three bosses, Lao Wang wanted to take snake bamboo and burned Nanzhukeng before, and they broke up when they were found out! "

"So that's it!" The short peddler gave a 'pooh' in the direction of the bald middle-aged man, turned around and quickly ran away with the round-faced peddler.

He would be a fool if he didn't do business. As for Lao Wang, he had already blacked out in his heart.

He is not the only one who has this idea, the other vendors who sell bamboo also have the same feeling in their hearts, looking at the bald middle-aged man as an enemy, staring and spitting and turning around like a passer-by.

The depression in the heart of the bald middle-aged man!Don't mention how big it is, but he also knows in his heart that no one can blame for all this, if he wants to blame, he can blame himself, and he will not do a good business, so he must resort to some small tricks to deceive people.

Only in the end did he realize that it was not others who had cheated him, but himself.

This has no reputation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along in this market in the future.

Thinking of this, the bald middle-aged man wanted to die.

……

Liu Dageng spent a total of 300 yuan to buy the bamboo dragonfly. With the addition of the rent of nearly 300 yuan for renting the venue, he had no money at all. There were more than 100 yuan left over from the last market, and a total of 260 yuan was given to my father for emergencies.

After all, everything is just getting started now, and money is needed everywhere.

Seeing that all the southern bamboos had been delivered, under the introduction of the round-faced trader, he bought more than a dozen fir trees, mixed with the purchased southern bamboos, and started to build a temporary greenhouse for shelter from the wind and rain.

This busy work lasted until after eleven o'clock in the evening before taking a break, but the temporary greenhouse hadn't been built yet, and we needed to buy canvas to cover it tomorrow before we could call it a day.

But the problem is that the canvas is very expensive. Liu Xing did a rough calculation, and it cost a total of 300 yuan to cover the entire temporary site with more than 200 square meters of canvas, not including the money for some small hardware.

In other words, if the greenhouse is built well, then Liu Xing's family will have no money around them, and they will be beaten back to before liberation.

After learning the answer, Liu Dageng was at a loss. He even asked Liu Xing: "What should I do now? Do I need to go outside to borrow money to tide over the difficulties?"

"Borrowing money? Dad, you didn't save a few hundred yuan at home before?" Liu Xing asked with a look of surprise.

He remembered that in 93, his father was so frugal to build a red brick house that he was not willing to spend even a penny. Because he kept the money in the closet at home for too long, he was finally bitten into pieces by mice. At that time, he remembered There is 200 yuan!

"Your father really has no money now!" Father Liu Dagen hadn't spoken yet, but mother Zhu Meiling told the truth with a sigh: "Your uncle borrowed 300 yuan for two months, and his family built a new house. You should know."

"Isn't it?" Liu Xing covered his head and didn't know what to say.

If he had known this earlier, he would have planned to spend money.

"Daughter-in-law, why don't I ask my third brother to borrow some?" Liu Dageng looked at Zhu Meiling, knowing that Liu Xing must be helpless now, so he asked solicitingly.

"Don't go, your third brother's house is also very difficult now!" Zhu Meiling affirmed after thinking for a while.

"I also agree with Mom's opinion!" Liu Xing frowned: "The roof of the shed does not necessarily have to be made of canvas, so let's do it! Use Nanzhu instead, and the cost should be several times cheaper than canvas."

"Nanzhu?" Liu Dageng was surprised.

"Can this work?" Zhu Meiling was also at a loss.

Chapter 033 Plan Can't Keep Up With Changes

"Of course it can be done!" Liu Xing picked up the bamboo knife on the side, and neatly divided a piece of bamboo into six parts, then sawed it into several sections with a saw, and built a simple roof: "Parents, you Look, if you build a roof like this to keep out the wind and rain, there shouldn't be any problems in ten years."

"But after ten years, the bamboo that has been exposed to the sun and rain will probably rot!" Liu Xing added.

A real bamboo craftsman can use bamboo to make many things, from bamboo birds flying in the sky to bamboo rafts floating on the water, and even the houses that people live in, all of which can be made of bamboo. Some remote areas are called bamboo houses.

Liu Xing has worked in the coastal areas, so he is familiar with the structure of bamboo buildings and some key production problems. If the roof of this small temporary greenhouse is to be solved with bamboo, then naturally there will be no problems.

However, once the bamboo buildings along the coast are built, they can be kept for more than ten years. Under the protection of some special anti-corrosion, sun-proof and mildew-proof materials, they can withstand wind and rain for a hundred years without any problems.

Of course, the stalls in this market are all temporary, so there is no need to take care of them for such a long time, Liu Dageng immediately affirmed Liu Xing's opinion: "If it can be used for ten years, what do you say, just do it like this!"

"That's right, when we have money, we're changing to canvas, but son, how do you know so much?" Zhu Meiling looked at Liu Xing suspiciously.

"Ahem... I read it in a book!" Liu Xing explained awkwardly.

this time……

He no longer dared to take the blame on his grandfather.

If my mother asked my grandfather about it during the Chinese New Year, then he might not be able to explain it even if he wanted to explain it.

"Then it seems that your junior high school is not in vain!" Liu Dageng sighed, "Unlike me, I didn't even graduate from elementary school. No wonder I can only farm at home all day, and my son joked that I was watching the sky from a well!"

"Dad!" Liu Xing felt a little uncomfortable.

"Don't listen to your father!" Zhu Meiling couldn't help laughing: "Go back to the wonton shop and go to bed! Tomorrow, when your fourth uncle comes, we will break bamboo and build the roof together."

"Okay!" Liu Xing nodded, turned around and walked towards the wonton shop with Little Peanut and his younger brother Liu Hang.

……

Just after dawn, Liu Xing was woken up by his father Liu Dageng: "Son, get up quickly, I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Liu Xing got up reluctantly, and looked at his father Liu Dageng with a sleepy face.

"Boss Zhong, who sold Nanzhu to us yesterday, brought a colleague with him early this morning. He said that Nanzhu's business could not continue, and he wanted to sell us the canvas on the roof of the temporary site. He had more than 400 It only costs 20 yuan per square meter!" Liu Dageng even said his intention.

As for Boss Zhong, he was the round-faced peddler in Liu Xing's impression, and Liu Xing must know this.

Hearing what his father said, he lost all sleepiness immediately: "Dad, this is a great thing! Why do you ask me to discuss it? Just buy it. This indirectly saved our family a lot of money."

"Of course I understand the truth, but according to the meaning of the colleague that Boss Zhong brought, he wants to pack and sell other things to us as well, so as to save him the trouble of transporting them back!" Liu Dageng said with a sneer.

"What are the other things?" Liu Xing got off the bed and put on his shoes.

"Don't you know if you go over with me to have a look? Some things don't seem to be useful to me, but you have read more books than me, so maybe they are of great use!" Liu Dageng said what was in his heart.
