Jia Huan's mind was completely occupied by this big plan to make money, and he looked a little dazed. Brother Xing, who had just finished eating, looked at him, couldn't help stretching out his hand to pull Jia Huan, and said in a low voice:

"What's the matter? But what's wrong?"

Speaking of feeling uncomfortable, he suddenly thought of the fact that his stupid younger brother went to the sea twice this afternoon to swim so many ways, and even dived to catch scallops. Jia Huan's forehead, but at this time Jia Huan has been awakened by his shout just now, so he won't worry him for nothing, so he shook his head and said:

"It's nothing uncomfortable. It's just, big brother, what do those scholars usually like in that academy? If we get some conch shells in the past and pick those brightly colored ones, will they like them? Will they want them? That's not true. If they want something costly, wouldn’t they be able to earn a lot of money back? If they don’t want it individually, what if it’s made into a wind chime? It’s like we wear it with a ladle and hang it under the eaves to see how big the wind is. Will the conch look good if it is made, and will they like it too?"

The wind chime looks very elegant, but in fact it was the earliest meteorological product at the beginning. It was used to observe the wind direction and wind level. It has been used for many years. It has been used since ancient times. Yes, don't say that it is really developed enough and comprehensive, but that's it, no one seems to think of using conch shells to make wind chimes. The reason for this is easier to guess, that is, there is a lack of elegant scholars in this seaside , and for fishermen, it is good enough to predict the wind direction with a ladle arc. It is simple, cheap, and easy to make. Like a conch, it is not so simple to drill holes. Therefore, when Jia Huan brought it up, the whole family was stunned for a while, not knowing how to evaluate it.

"This, can this be done? Some people want the conch thing? Oh, yes, maybe there are, and some of those things are really beautiful, and they are also eye-catching, but making wind chimes, can this be done?"

Brother Xing also started talking more rarely, scratching his head to think about this possibility.The man may be a little clumsy about this kind of thing, but the eyes of the fish girl on the other side have already lit up, she put down the things she was packing up, and interjected:

"According to me, this thing can't be said to be possible. The conch is so beautiful. It's big and small. By the way, use the smallest string of big ones as Lingzi. When the wind blows, there will be a burst of noise. It must be good, even if those scholars don't like it, there must be some people who like it."

Not to mention Yu Niang, even Qi Shi also felt reliable, so she nodded,

"Since when did the second son become so smart? This is really a good idea. This is just a matter of effort. Let's go pick up some conch shells tomorrow morning and try them on skewers, but they can't be sold. Boss, you might as well chop some firewood over there to earn back the money for the car, and you won't lose anything."

Indeed, because it is a bit far away to the county seat, it takes two hours to walk. This kind of journey is too much delay, so everyone has already agreed at the beginning, to be the mule cart of the village chief's house Go, even if Xing Geer really wants to save the car fare, which is nothing more than two pennies, but in order to get along with the group, he doesn't want to go alone, not to mention that the car fare shared is really not much, so everyone It's all agreed that when they go to the county town, the village head can earn some money by helping people transport goods. They do a day's work, and after earning money, they can pay the full car price when the village head comes back. As for whether they come back with them?In order to make money, there is no reason to come back every day. It is a cost-effective way to stay there for ten days and a half months and then come back. Live in a ruined temple or other places that don’t cost money to make do, and wait for the car in the village to go. Come back when the time is right, or walk back together after finishing work, which is the way they agreed. There are many people, so you don’t have to worry too much about safety even in the wild.

It's just that now that there is this wind chime method, Xingge'er will definitely not be able to go there together tomorrow. Thinking about the difficult life of the few partners in the village, I couldn't help getting up and went to various houses to try it out. Try to persuade the big guys to delay for a day tomorrow, and pick up conch shells to make wind chimes before leaving. A delay of one day is nothing to each family, but if the wind chimes can really make money, then wouldn’t the families in their village just Another way of making money?Let’s not say much, even if it’s only a dozen or twenty Wen, it’s a big deal for a catty or two of rice grain. In the past, even if you helped people chop firewood, transport goods and do manual labor, it was only about ten Wen a day, like him. It is possible for such a young and weak person to have eight essays. With one day's delay, he can earn two days' hard work. I think everyone is willing to try it.

Brother Xing did not guess wrong, but he walked to two or three houses. In the early morning of the next day, people from the village came out by the beach, those old men who went to sea in the past, because it happened to be the day to hang the net, they also followed Groping at the seaside, they don’t understand what is good-looking and what is not good-looking, but they can also pick up something to eat at the beach, isn’t it, sand crabs, shells and the like, boiled in the water is meat, today at home The women and children were all busy with the conch, so they naturally took on the task of making food.

Jia Huan led Xiao San and Xing Geer to flip the sand and pick up conch shells on the beach, while Qi Shi and Yu Niang started piercing holes with shoe awls and strung up wind chimes, while the other women Most people have this kind of division of labor, even the Xiao Miao family with only two women and children left. Xiao Miao is picking up conch shells, and Grandma Wang is doing handwork with her eyes squinted.

"Brother Xing, it's agreed, I will entrust you to bring what our family makes, and if it is sold, I will help you bring the rice back."

"Don't worry, it will be done soon. But your grandma has bad eyesight, don't break it, it's not easy to sell, you hurry up, go and help when you have almost picked it up, don't be greedy, whether you can sell it is not sure yet Well. With this skill, it’s better to make something good first, and if it’s really successful, then work harder.”

Xiao Miao and Xing Geer grew up together, and they even talked about getting married when they were young, but the two families have not been going well in the past few years. Either this family lost people, or the other family was in trouble, so this matter has been going on forever. It was delayed, but everyone knows that these two will be a family in the future, even Grandma Wang is very relieved because her granddaughter has a future, and now she only wants to save some dowry for Xiao Miao It's too ugly when you get married, and Qi's and other members of the family have long been prepared. In the future, Grandma Wang will definitely have to help her when she dies.Therefore, there is no objection to Xiao Miao asking Brother Xing to help bring goods, sell things, or buy things, and Xiao Miao is very straightforward and open-minded because of family affairs for a long time, never twitching.

Jia Huan looked at this man who was not yet married but acted like an old couple. It was a little funny to ask each other, and he couldn't help thinking of Jia Lian. The couple actually had such a posture, but in the end, when the husband and wife became enemies, He doesn't know how many right and wrong are involved in this, and how many tricks of the aunt are involved. From the brother's point of view, even if Jia Lian doesn't see him in his eyes, he treats him as transparent, but after all, he doesn't intentionally bully him. But it was the second sister-in-law of the chain who tormented him and his aunt a lot in order to please Mrs. Wang, so Jia Huan felt that none of the women in the Wang family was a good thing.It was very unlucky for my own second brother Lian to match this woman, and he was implicated in the end, and ended up being exiled and assigned.

Now the second elder brother Lian seems to be engaged too, and now he probably feels that the daughter of the Wang family is well-matched to marry him, right?

"Second brother, second brother, look, look at this, it's so beautiful, is this worth money?"

Xiaosan's shout brought Jia Huan back from his distracted thoughts. Following Xiaosan's voice, he saw that this is really not an ordinary product. It has a fiery red color and flame-like pattern, which seems to be very different from other conch shells. It's different, and the whole appearance has a grim look.

"Okay, this thing must be a precious variety, the little three should be kept separately, and we have to give a high price separately when we sell it. Well, I will think of a story later, and it will definitely sell for a good price. "

Jia Huan has been in business for a long time, and there is no shortage of tongue-in-cheek to deceive customers. Thinking that this thing may be due to the increased income, his heart suddenly became hot.

On the other hand, Brother Xing couldn't help but ask with his head:

"Make up stories? That's okay too? Second son, why are you thinking so many things all of a sudden?"

Here came the question, and there was really no way to answer it. Jia Huan could only touch his head and said with a smile:

"Anyway, I'll follow you, and you'll know when the time comes."

"What are you three brothers talking about, why don't you rush to pick up conch shells? Second son, this time we listened to what you said before doing this. I didn't say anything. If we really make money, we will focus on your idea, boy. Thank you gifts from every family must be indispensable to you, but you have to follow this time. We really don’t know how to sell this thing. Since you dare to think about it, you must have an idea. It’s good to go when the time comes. Try to see if it works. If it doesn’t work, don’t worry, kid, no one will blame you, after all, you’ve thought of a way out for the people in our village. Whether it’s successful or not, I’m thankful for your heart.”

Before Brother Xing could continue to interrogate Jia Huan, the third brother who happened to come over scooped a bowl of water from the tea bucket next to Xiaosan, took a big sip and then spoke.Jia Huan hurriedly followed his words,

"I think it can be done. Let's look at things that are not rare. Can people who have never seen them be not rare? Isn't there a saying that rare things are more expensive, the less they are, the more expensive they are, so can they still be sold?" money?"

What he said really touched the third brother's heart, he laughed and said:

"Isn't that what I said, and I think so too, so I came out early this morning, hahaha."
