Rebirth 09: Buying a house with a baby UP owner

Zhong Meihui and Xing Yiwen had a very good chat. She set a design direction for Xing Yiwen based on her memory of the makeup and hairstyle of the drama "The Princess".

This kind of fairy-like clothing is Xing Yiwen's favorite, especially the Hanfu with trousers and silk shawls, which are all areas where she can express herself.

"You can add some simple embroidery to these places. The pattern should be large, but the color should not be too complicated. It should give people a light but gorgeous feeling."

Zhong Meihui tried to draw a few pictures, hoping to give Xing Yiwen some inspiration.

"I understand, Sister Meihui, I will think about it carefully. In addition, I will also make headdresses that match these costumes as soon as possible."

Xing Yiwen has a full set of skills. In addition to making clothes, she can also make related accessories. She took out a hair crown and asked Zhong Meihui to see if the look was consistent with her imagination.

"This hair crown is indeed good, but I hope that this character's usual accessories can be simpler. A tassel hairpin and some hairpin flowers are more suitable. However, the hair crown will be worn during the ceremony, but it will be more elegant than the hair crown you gave me. grand."

Zhong Meihui believes that the heroine’s daily attire must make people feel approachable, so the simpler the decoration on her head, the better. For some important occasions, complicated flower crowns are needed to show her identity.

Xing Yiwen kept nodding beside her and wrote down Zhong Meihui's requests one by one.

"What did Ye Cheng do? Why haven't you come back yet?" Zhong Meihui had previously focused on Xing Yiwen's design. Only then did she remember that it was unreasonable for Ye Cheng to leave the studio. She was a copywriter and did not need to go there. At the filming site, not to mention that Da Luo and Zhong Qianru were both out of town, so she had no reason to leave.

"She went out to send a courier and should be back soon." Xing Yiwen helped Ye Cheng smooth things over. Ye Cheng has often been absent-minded in recent days. She can often be seen in a daze whether at home or in the studio.

Sometimes she would get bored in the studio and walk around, and Yun Shanshan didn't raise any objection.

Yun Shanshan's employer does not value working hours, as long as the daily work can be completed on time, but Xing Yiwen does not understand Zhong Meihui's temper yet and dare not tell the truth easily, fearing that Ye Cheng will lose his job.

Xu Shuimiao often came to the studio because of transporting wood. He knew that Ye Cheng was under great pressure and would sometimes stay nearby to get some air. He knew that Xing Yiwen was in trouble now, so he took the initiative to help her out.

"Fourth sister-in-law, let's go to the warehouse and have a look. There are a lot of good things in there." Xu Shuimiao originally wanted Zhong Meihui to see the results of his work during this period, but now the time is right.

"Okay, let's go take a look now." Zhong Meihui had only seen the appearance of the warehouse online before. Now when she visited the site in person, she discovered that the warehouse built by Xu Shuimiao was much larger than she had imagined.

The small yard behind the crooked building has been turned into a wall. The surrounding area has been raised 5 meters, and an independent warehouse has been enclosed. A light steel frame has been added in the middle, and the top has been turned into colored steel tiles. The overall look is very formal and fundamentally It doesn't look like it was renovated from a small courtyard.

"Fourth sister-in-law, this batch of wood is all good stuff. I can't bear to leave it with Boss Jiang." Xu Shuimiao opened the door, and inside there were more than half of the tree roots and some of the wood he had recovered.

The fragrance of golden nanmu fills the whole space, making people feel relaxed and happy, and the shape of those tree roots is full of artistic sense. Even if Zhong Meihui is not an artist, she feels that these tree roots are extremely malleable, so she sent them to Boss Jiang to make them It's a shame that it's an ordinary style.

“The quality of these tree roots is excellent, but it’s a pity that we can’t find a suitable art engraver. Otherwise, the price of these roots would be several times higher if they were made into finished products.”

Xu Shuimiao has also recently used his previous relationships to try to contact some art masters. Some people want to buy the wood from him as raw materials for carvings, but they are unwilling to carve works for him.

These timbers were acquired by Xu Shuimiao with great difficulty, and they have great potential for appreciation in the future. Naturally, Xu Shuimiao was unwilling to give them the timber.

Although Zhong Meihui did not understand the quality of these woods, the feedback from Boss Jiang showed that the woods purchased by Xu Shuimiao were of high quality. He was able to receive so much wood in just a few months, which was enough. You can see how hard he works.

Zhong Meihui is very satisfied with the progress, and because of Xu Shuimiao's relationship, even Zhong Laifu's consciousness has begun to wake up. If it were him before, it would be impossible for him to break off the engagement with Feng Zhenxiu.

"What if we exchange wood for wood and let them help us carve it?" Zhong Meihui naturally knows that the appreciation potential of these tree roots after they become works of art is significant.

So she proposed an exchange with those art masters. She would provide raw materials as remuneration and let those masters help them carve. The remaining raw materials could be carved into new works and kept for themselves.

"I have tried this method, but they don't agree. Although the roots of golden nanmu are rare in the market, many people do not consider it as the first choice for carving, so it is not attractive to those artists. , but in a few years, the trend should change, and when the golden nanmu becomes valuable, that’s when they will beg us.”

Xu Shuimiao plans to cover the market. Since the market is not good now, he will wait until the market improves. But he has other ideas for other ordinary wood.

"Fourth sister-in-law, I think we still need to have our own furniture factory, instead of always going to Pingle for processing. It's uneasy to put such expensive materials in other people's factories."

Xu Shuimiao feels that they are still restricted by Boss Jiang. The processing fee of 2 yuan per ton has exceeded Xu Shuimiao's acquisition cost, making Xu Shuimiao feel that this business is not worthwhile.

After all, what Zhong Meihui wants to make are traditional styles that are easy to sell in the future. Many workers know how to make patterns for these styles. If they open a factory to do it themselves, it will definitely be cheaper, not to mention that Boss Jiang’s factory is limited. Apart from them, These processing businesses also need to produce the furniture he usually sells, and the efficiency can no longer keep up with the speed at which Xu Shuimiao purchases things.

Xu Shuimiao felt that if they wanted to do this, they had to make it big. It was imperative that they build a factory. Otherwise, they would soon be unable to fit in this warehouse.

"Building a factory yourself is indeed the most feasible option. I also think it should be built, but where are you going to build the factory?" Zhong Meihui feels that there is no suitable place to build a factory in the town, not to mention that the factory cannot be too far away from the warehouse. , otherwise, you have to find someone to watch over there, and transportation is also a big problem.
