"I am back!"

At the door of the house, Ji Mo greeted him and motioned for the second brother to put him down, he wanted to go by himself, the second brother patted his buttocks, as if cheering him up, and watched Ji Mo running upside down with his short legs Go to the house, pour all the money in your arms on the bed, squint and smile at Mother Ji: "Here, it's all sold!"

"sold?!"

Ji's mother was a little surprised, she was not very optimistic about this kind of business, she had never heard of anyone's bracelets that could also pray for blessings, and thought that these would only be liked by the elderly, but the money of the elderly was spent on their children and grandchildren, most likely I don't know how to buy such a bracelet for myself. I never thought that there are girls who would buy it!

"There is still a deposit, it's these patterns!"

Seeing that second brother Ji came in with a suitcase, Ji Mo took out the booklet in the suitcase and showed Ji mother several patterns.

This booklet was drawn by Ji Mo himself. He drew several kinds of bells with different patterns on the album, one on each page. This is customization.

"I told them that our shop is here, and they should be able to find it, so I said, we should make a sign at the intersection with the name of our shop on it, and draw an arrow. , making it easier for them to find them.”

The location of Ji's house was originally a residence, not for opening a shop. The house can't be regarded as facing the street, and there is no business in this area. If others want to know, it is very appropriate to be able to walk here and get a road sign matter.

But most of the time in ancient times, these shops were well-planned, and there was a simple thought of "the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys", which does not know the benefits of advertising. Ji's mother has always disagreed with him to set up such a large shop, for fear that the customers have not yet attracted them. Come on, bring trouble first.

It doesn't matter whether it's the government collecting taxes, or local gangsters looking for trouble, or neighbors complaining, in short, they can't do such outrageous things that no one else has done.

"What are you doing nonsense, if it doesn't work, let your brother wait at the intersection, anyway, he has nothing to do every day!"

As Mother Ji spoke, she glared at Second Brother Ji.

The Ji family plus Ji Mo's three sons, Brother Ji, let alone, he didn't die, but he suffered a serious illness, and then he was always ill, either with headaches or brain fever, shutting himself at home all day long. How did he go out? After Father Ji settled down here and opened a shop, he followed suit and helped manage the shop.

Father Ji didn't let him make jewelry any more, just because he was afraid that he would play those tricks again, ruin his reputation and hurt the whole family.

Brother Ji also seems to have a psychological shadow, he doesn't do these things anymore, it's okay to help sell goods, there is nothing tricky in the jewelry business that he doesn't know, and that little cleverness is even more shrewd when it comes to calculating accounts people.

Brother Ji has been learning from Father Ji all the time, but he is the type whose brains are useless and his hands are useless. His thick fingers are terribly clumsy, and even a flower rope can be stretched out of shape. Father Ji led him to sit down, and it seemed that there was no problem with any step, but when the parts were assembled together, the problem came—ugly.

I'm a bit selective, I don't think the things made by Brother Ji are good-looking, even Ji's father doesn't like it, and I don't know what is wrong with him, so I just stare at him to make things, only to find out that this person makes things Not fine, some things, if they are so small, it doesn't mean that.

For example, when stacking flowers, the size of the flowers differs only by a few millimeters, and the larger ones support the smaller ones, and the smaller ones support smaller ones. They are stacked on top of each other until they are placed in the center of the flower, and it becomes a state of blooming flowers. But if you put it in the hands of Brother Ji, what you make is not a layered petal that is big on the outside and small on the inside, but a dog's tail grass, with the same diameter up and down.

No, not all of the same diameter, there are smaller ones in the middle, but the small ones are not so bordered, one side is small and the other is big, and the completely non-standard flower shape is so "ugly" and crooked. , but it is unique.

Ji's father discovered his problem, and corrected him a few times, but the effect was not good. Instead, because he reprimanded him too hard, he gave up the strike completely, and directly pushed it on Ji Mo's head.

"And the third one, let him do it, he will definitely be able to do it well!"

The second brother Ji almost couldn't wait to push the matter to Ji Mo. It was then that Ji Mo realized why he looked at him so eagerly when he saw this second brother since he was a child. He was looking at the benefactor who saved him from the sea of ​​suffering Some eyes!

It just so happens that this is also his own task, Ji Mo will do his part, and when he understands the matter, he will take the initiative to ask to learn. Among other things, his accuracy must be much better than that of Ji Erge. Come.

The relationship between father and son is very easy, there is almost no formal apprenticeship process, father to son is justified, Ji Mo is a little older, he will help Ji's father, watch from the sidelines, and hand him a tool or something.

Father Ji hadn't given up on Second Brother Ji at that time, and was ready to teach him well, but Second Brother Ji didn't like this at first, so he couldn't wait to get away. Seeing him like that, Father Ji also became cold-hearted, and didn't force him, just let him I've been idle all day.

"I'm not idle either. If I hadn't stayed on the sidelines, I'm afraid I'd have been robbed of where I could have sold them. Mother, you don't know. There are so many people, how many people like this, or how old are you?" Three wise."

Brother Ji grabbed a handful of the copper coins as he said, and ran away. Mother Ji didn't react in time. When she turned around, he had already run to the door, and she turned her head and smiled at the family: "I won't come back to eat!"

"Come back, you come back to me! Prodigal stuff!"

Mother Ji stood at the door and cursed a few words, spat, turned her head around and quickly gathered up the money on the bed and counted them one by one.

The cost is counted, how much is actually sold, how much is the price increase, the part raised is the manual cost, and the real profit should also be calculated from here.

Ji Mo has the book in his heart, and some of the manual expenses are his own.

The little bell doesn't look big, but it's not easy to sit up. Father Ji made a big head to look like a bell, and Ji Mo carved patterns on it.

This is different from simple carving. There is a special word called "carving gold", which means to use various shapes of carving knives to carve various lines and patterns on the metal surface. It requires superb manual skills. To complete this kind of work, his previous engraving experience also gave him a lot of bonus.

And this also made Father Ji pay more attention to Ji Mo's "talent" and placed high hopes on him.

Compared with Ji Mo, Ji's second brother's incompetence is nothing, so Ji's father turned all his attention to Ji Mo.

Seeing him coming back, Father Ji also put down his work, came over to take a look, didn't look at the money on the bed, only stared at Ji Mo: "I'll do it when I get back, there are so many things to do!"

"There are so many things! It's time to eat, so you should stop and take a rest!"

Ji's mother snapped a sentence, not letting Ji's father use Ji Mo to do child labor.

"Uh, oh."

Hearing Mother Ji's words, Father Ji responded honestly, and simply sat on the side without moving, waiting for the food to be served.

Seeing him waiting by the side, Ji's mother didn't care about counting the money, she put the money into the wooden box next to her, turned her head and shouted outside, asking Brother Ji to help.

The wooden box was locked and stuffed inside the quilt, so it couldn't be seen from the outside at a glance, Mother Ji went to the kitchen to serve food, she brought food into the house, Brother Ji followed her into the house, carrying the rice bowl , swept the house: "The second child is not at home to eat?"

"Leave him alone, who knows where he went wild!"

Ji's mother is not angry, this son can be considered disabled.

Brother Ji didn't say a word, but there was a smile in his eyes, which was a sense of happiness in contrast.

Ji Mo found out a long time ago that his two elder brothers are very difficult to deal with. The reason is simple. The family's errands are still there before. Brother Ji is a well-deserved successor, so he is a little arrogant and always looks down on Ji Mo. The second brother was clumsy, and when he lost the job at home, the second brother Ji ridiculed him a lot, and the ridicule reached a climax after the eldest brother Ji fell into the water.

Wanting to die but regretting it, and having to pay medical expenses after being rescued made the family even worse. Even the treatment of Brother Ji was much worse, so how could people not complain.

Until now, when the two of them quarreled, Second Brother Ji still held on to the past. Of course, Brother Ji is not easy to mess with. Well, that's really a brother like a father, he must be subdued.

The two of them were facing each other, and Ji Mo had reason to suspect that the second brother Ji always went out to play, and it was also because he hid away to save the energy of arguing with the eldest brother Ji.

Because of the disagreement between the two, Brother Ji was very happy when he heard Mother Ji say this, and he also expressed a few more words of concern for Ji Mo: "How is it, have you sold it?"

"It's sold, it's all sold!"

Ji Mo responded, looking very happy.

"That's good, I said, it will definitely be sold."

Brother Ji laughed along, as if he was happy for Ji Mo.

Ji Mo looked at him suspiciously. This man is really in a good mood. He even forgot what he said. At that time, he wanted to sell this kind of bracelet, and he finally persuaded Ji's father, but Ji's elder brother was talking sarcasticly. Didn't he say something like "kids messing around"?

Brother Ji's face has thickened a lot since diving, and he looked at Ji Mo with no difference, and he used chopsticks to pick up food for him lovingly, and said to himself: "What else do you want to eat, I'll hold it for you !"

This is really a good brother template!

"Thank you bro!"

Ji Mo responded obediently, there are some things, don't break the point, just leave it at that.

A harmonious family is better than anything else. Ji Mo didn't want to get involved in the conflict between his two brothers.
