Chapter 12 What Do You Make Money For?

The wood that has not been polluted by paint exudes a unique aroma, which makes You Yishu involuntarily think of the board that was shaved by her grandfather, which is particularly kind.

Just enter the door of the place to put some very straight poplar, but the smell slightly reveals a little sassy / smell, not very good, You Yishu is the most familiar with this material of wood, the grandfather used to do carpentry work the most is this poplar, but most of the conditions are no longer used poplar to make furniture, because poplar grows too fast, the fiber structure is loose, and it is particularly easy to deform after being made into furniture.

There are some oak, hard cypress, maple, etc. next door, but most of You Yishu only recognizes the fur, and if you really want to go deeper, you can't tell the doorway. However, when he walked to the innermost pine area, You Yishu stopped.

The peculiar pine scent of pine permeates the surroundings, and this special smell is highly recognizable. There are not many pine piles here, at least half less than other timbers.

The pine wood has obviously been dried by hand, and the cross-sectional growth rings appear very dense one by one.

"Little girl, these are pine wood logs, what are you going to do with them?" The eldest brother in the pine wood area looked like he had just woken up, and his voice was lazy, but he was dressed much neater than the others.

"I'd like to make a sofa, but I haven't figured out what wood to use. After You Yishu finished speaking, she touched the exposed wood with her hand, and the wood felt very delicate on the neat cutting surface.

"If you want to say that it is durable and not deformed, it is best to make a sofa made of pine, you see this chair of mine, it is made of pine, the surface is only coated with a layer of varnish, you see this texture, it is all brought by the wood itself, it looks natural and stable. Of course, if the pine wood is not handled well, the water content is too high, it is also easy to crack, this batch of goods in my hand has been dried before, but you also know that we are humid in the south, and it is easy to smash in the hands after a long time, so the pine inventory is small, in fact, if you make furniture, you can use the oak over there, and the furniture made is beautiful and strong, but it is slightly more expensive than pine. ”

After listening to this introduction, You Yishu glanced at this man, she knew that pine wood has high requirements for water content, but it is really rare to come up with the bottom of the whole pocket, and other businessmen hate to blow their products into the sky, he is good, saying so much, he is not afraid that people will not buy this batch of pine wood in his hands.

"My home is Chinese style, oak is more suitable for European-style furniture," You Yishu took a closer look at the pine chair behind the man, the natural wood stripes were not decorated, and it looked very beautiful and generous, You Yishu had an idea in her heart. "How is this pine log priced, if the price is right, I want it. ”

"These are white pine dried antiseptic wood, the price of this diameter class is 1920, and it can be processed into boards. The man spoke very cheerfully.

"So expensive!" You Yishu was shocked by this price, although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, she didn't expect that even the price of pure logs would be so high, so that the whole sofa would have to break 10,000. You Yishu subconsciously found that no matter what she does, she will first consider the price and her own savings in her heart, which is in stark contrast to the generosity of not caring about the price at all when she was in the magic capital.

You Yishu suddenly hated herself like this.

"I'm sorry, let's go home and discuss it and see how much wood we need to use," You Yishu finished speaking, pulling You Wenbin to the door as if she was running.

The sun outside is much smaller, and it doesn't have the spiciness. You Yishu put on hard hats for herself and her younger brother and began to ride back to Taoyuan Village.

Along the way, You Yishu had a lot of thoughts.

Since he achieved his financial freedom in the magic capital, You Yishu has firmly established the idea that money is an external object and can be used enough, although he has not bought a house in the magic capital, he can live very comfortably by renting a house.

When she resigned and went home, I have to say that there are some impulsive factors in it, but You Yishu knows in her heart that the real purpose of her going home is You Wenbin and the companionship of her family, so she didn't take into account the economic problems after returning home, she just thought that with hundreds of thousands in her hands, she could live very comfortably when she returned to the village, but these freedoms were all on the premise of not pursuing the quality of life and making do with life.

But You Yishu has never been a person who can make do with it.

So when she came back, she began to renovate the home where she and her brother lived. In You Yishu's dictionary, this home should be warm and livable, which can not only carry the fatigue of her day's work, but also bring her pastoral and poetic.

It's just that the imagination is beautiful, and the reality is skinny.

All "explosive reforms" are based on monetary investment, and what You Yishu is experiencing is such a level.

However, You Yishu doesn't want to become a person who is forced by life and has to compare, if she wants to return to her original open-minded and atmospheric self, you must first adjust your mentality, at least have a stable source of income, and you can't be led by the word "money".

But how to adjust it?

Before he could figure it out, You Yishu's scooter rode to the door of his home.

As soon as You Wenbin entered the door, he rushed into the room and picked up his little bench like a child.

When You Yishu saw this scene, her heart moved, since this kind of small bench can make her younger brother so rare, will other children also like it? If you sell this kind of small bench on Taobao, will anyone come to buy it?

You can log in to the Taobao account and search, You Yishu was a little hit, now many manufacturers are using machines to mass-produce solid wood small benches, not only look exquisite, the price is also very cheap, relying on small profits and quick turnover, there are thousands of sales every month, and the comment area is well received.

At this time, if you compete with others in the market, you will have already lost your advantage.

There are also many original handmade woodwork, but most of the prices of this kind of woodwork are very high, although it looks novel and practical, but the sales are very small.

"It's hard to be original, it's even more difficult to do handmade!" You Yishu threw her phone aside and fell sideways on the bed.

You Yishu thought about it for a long time in a chaotic way, and fell asleep in a daze. I don't know how long it took, I was awakened by a few rapid vibrations of the mobile phone, You Yishu picked up the phone, and the interface showed Wang Xuan, the manager who was in the magic capital.

"Xiaoshu, will everything be okay when you go home?"

"I've been busy with work lately, so I can't bother to contact you"

"You girl, it's like you're missing contact when you go back."

……

You Yishu looked at the WeChat interface that kept showing that the other party was typing, but he hadn't received the message for a long time, so he hurriedly sent a smile and laughed a few words with Wang Xuan. Without the restrictions of superiors and subordinates, Wang Xuan is more like a sister who has known each other for many years at the moment.

"Xiaoshu, I really envy you for going back to your hometown, you don't have to be tortured by Party A's father anymore, I'm being tortured so much that my hair falls out one by one, maybe the next time you come to the magic capital, I'll already be bald." Wang Xuan mentioned that Party A was a bitter stomach, but no matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only swallow it in his stomach, who made the family the owner of the money.

You Yishu remembered the high-intensity work in the magic capital before, and smiled, those devilish reminder calls have become a thing of the past, and occasionally appearing in dreams will still cause mental tension.

"If you're really bald, I'll give you a certain wig to make sure it's nice and stylish. ”

Wang Xuan came back with the expression of a "Mediterranean" uncle, silently expressing his sadness.

"But seriously, it turns out that when you were in the company, I didn't feel that it was so difficult to do the ancient decoration style, but now that Xiao Xu ...... Hey, I'm so angry with her that I vomit blood ten times a day!"

You Yishu knew that Wang Xuan wanted to wait for her to calm down and invite her to return to the company, but time had passed, and she had already made up her mind to stay in Taoyuan Village, so You Yishu avoided Wang Xuan's words, comforted her a few words, and ended the conversation.

Looking at the chat record with Wang Xuan, You Yishu was suddenly awakened by her words, she was originally born in interior decoration, and she had been exposed to many ancient Chinese dynasties style decoration designs before, and knew how difficult it was to assemble a suitable home for this kind of home, either there was a conflict between dynasties, or there was a "string of dynasties" between furniture elements, which made the whole home indecent. Of course, it is not excluded that there are many families who choose new and ancient collocation, such as round poufs and bent round stools, etc., although they are all classical Chinese furniture, but with modern home furnishings, it looks like it has a special interest.

"If I want to make wooden stools, I don't necessarily stick to modern styles, and those wooden stools designed by the ancients with unique styles of the times are more eye-catching at home," You Yishu has become clearer and clearer, and has a clear plan for the Taobao wood art store she will open.

Since returning from buying furniture from the town, You Wenbin has a new task, that is, to sit in the shade and pay attention to the movement at the door, You Yishu knows that he is waiting for the air conditioner that can bring cool breeze to the door, so under the drive of You Wenbin, there is gradually an expectation in his heart.

In the past few days, You Yishu also has a new task, that is, to find out all the carpentry tools that his grandfather has sealed, clean the ashes that should be cleaned, and polish the ones that should be polished. It is said that "sharpening knives does not mistake woodcutters", first have the tools at hand, and the next step is naturally easier.

These tools have been used for many years, and some of the wooden handles are even held by grandfathers with deep handprints, if You Yishu did not take over this craft, probably these tools can only slowly rust and rot.

I found some videos about the introduction of carpentry from the Internet, You Yishu learned to understand the use of various tools, and it was not much difficult to explore, but the file and saw were not lightly corroded, and it was necessary to buy a new one, and there were some chainsaws and electric mills, etc., it was also necessary to buy one, after all, it can help save a lot of time.

The real difficulty lies in the design of the mortise and tenon structure, after the invention of carpenter tools such as curved rulers and ink fountains from the "ancestor of the craftsman", Chinese carpenters have created countless ingenious wood products, and many furniture will not shake and displace the structure for hundreds of years under the pattern and joint of the mortise and tenon structure.
