Chapter 7: Business Comes to the Door

Fang Zheng didn't want people to think that his labor was cheap, and the reason why he opened his mouth to explain was because there was a circle of spectators standing around. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

People who visit the market like to watch the excitement, and once someone stops at a stall, soon other people will gather around to watch; On the other hand, if there are no customers standing in front of a stall, it is difficult to attract people unless the customers are more interested in what is on the stall.

Ten minutes ago, it was deserted in front of Fangzheng's booth, and there was no one; But since the young couple stood here, there have been tourists watching here one after another.

Whether you can do two businesses or not for the time being, at least the popularity has risen.

Founder didn't give up the opportunity, and directly put the billboard in front.

The billboard is very simple, it is a piece of white paper, with six big characters on it: "carving, carving from one yuan".

"Hey!" The young man muttered with some annoyance: "I knew that your first business cost thirty labor, so I carved the big one." ”

Just now, the young woman's full-skin beeswax was broken in half, and the other half had more than sixty grams, and carving a three-legged golden toad could already prove that the carving was square.

"It's not too late to give it to me." Fang Zheng said teasingly, and the young man decisively stopped talking.

Small carvings can be a gamble, let Fangzheng, an unfamiliar person carve, but it is better to find a familiar master to carve large pieces, after all, Fangzheng only carved a small three-legged golden toad, who knows how to carve large pieces of Fangzheng?

You know, the rest of the large pieces of beeswax are all white honey, and if you peel the skin to make a brand, you can also sell it for 100 yuan a gram......

Young couples are not short of money, but they are not willing to take this risk, after all, no one's money is blown by the wind, even if you want to deliver Founder to carve, you have to see the Founder carver first.

Shrugged his shoulders, Fang Zheng had already guessed that this would be the result, and he was not at ease if he replaced him.

Fang Zheng's gaze swept around the crowd, and finally landed on a young man who was eager to try, judging by his age and youthful face, he should be a college student.

It is undeniable that the student's face is still very thin, as long as he is not afraid of leaving, so Fang Zheng asked directly: "What does the little brother need to carve?" Affordable, with a minimum charge of a dollar ......"

The eyes of the crowd instantly fell on this male classmate.

The male classmate in the crowd was stunned for a moment, thinking that he didn't expect Fang Zheng to talk to him, and scratched his head in embarrassment: "What carvings are there for a dollar?" ”

"Carving something simple." Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders, and his eyes fell on the ivory fruit in the male classmate's hand: "Carve your ivory fruit into a rich armor in the world or something." ”

In fact, the material is carved into the shape of a tortoise shell, and the back armor is only used to simply imitate the tortoise shell to outline some lines, which can be said to be an entry-level work of carving.

The male classmate hesitated, he bought ivory fruit, in fact, he wanted to go back and grind his bracelet to play, because ivory fruit is cheap, but now that he met Fangzheng, he was a little hesitant.

You must know that the price of processing in the market is still very expensive, and it costs three or four yuan for a bead to grind out, and it is still very tempting to carve for one dollar.

Gritting his teeth, he took out an ivory fruit from the bag and handed it to Fang Zheng: "Help me make a rich world." ”

In fact, Fang Zheng didn't think much about carving ivory fruit, the carving process is not troublesome, the trouble is to polish the ivory fruit into the shape of tortoise shell, polishing is too laborious.

If it weren't for the fact that the cost of ivory fruit is too cheap, and the business has just opened now, Fang would not have done this.

However, since the business has come to the door, it is impossible not to do it, after all, the focus is now on building a good reputation.

Don't say anything, hurry up and work is the right way.

Replace the grinding wheel on the table mill, and don't bother to draw the line, just press the ivory fruit on it, and peel and trim the process together.

"How big do you want to be rich?" Fang Zheng turned his head and asked, but the shaping movement in his hand did not stand up.

"You can be as big as you want." The male student probably didn't think about it, and carving a rich armor world was also a temporary idea, so he simply carved as big as he wanted.

"Okay." Fang Zheng rotated the ivory fruit to trim the shape, and soon the general shape was ground out, and the paste smell caused by the friction of the ivory fruit followed.

Resisting the smell of paste, Fang Zheng only used a grinding wheel to grind the ivory fruit into the oval shape of a tortoiseshell, and then replaced it with sandpaper, and directly polished it with a 600 mesh and 1500 mesh grinding paper wheel.

After throwing the surface as bright as a mirror, Founder replaced the hand drill with a stainless steel cutting blade and carved it directly on the ivory fruit. The material of the ivory fruit is too hard, the grinding head and needle grinding are too slow, and the direct cutting efficiency is faster.

Two minutes later, a tortoiseshell with distinct lines came out of the world, and Fang Zheng handed it directly to the male classmate: "It's carved, one dollar." If you want to polish it again, go back and sandpaper yourself. ”

As for why Fang Zheng didn't help him polish it, what kind of international jokes did he make...... The higher the number of sandpaper, the more expensive it is, 7000 meshes have to be several pieces of sandpaper, spend a few dollars to polish the mirror effect, and then only charge one dollar? Founder's math is not taught by a PE teacher! Even if it's to earn word of mouth, you can't do business.

The male student happily put away the tortoise shell, and then handed Fang Zheng a dollar, and Fang Zheng did not dislike it at all.

Just grinding ivory fruit, many people surrounded him.

After all, this is also a remote place, and looking at a bunch of people here from a distance, there must be a lively look.

"Little brother, can you help me carve this? Just carve a rich armor in the world. A fat man handed over a mammoth tooth the size of a charging plug.

Obviously, it was because of the cheap fees of Founder and wanted to let Founder do OEM.

Glancing at the fat man, Fang Zheng weighed the mammoth teeth: "Yes, the cost is twenty." ”

"Why is the labor fee twenty? Didn't it just cost a dollar? The fat man said with some aggrietment.

"What I carved just now is an ivory fruit, how much is an ivory fruit? You're a mammoth, and if you give it twenty dollars a piece, it's not too high, and if you change it to amber beeswax, I'll charge by the gram. Fang Zheng rolled his eyes: "Still engraved?" ”

"Tick, then tick." The fat man smiled a little wryly, knowing that his idea of wanting to take advantage had been recognized.

The difficulty of mammoth tooth carving is much easier than that of ivory fruit, as long as you pay attention not to crack in the process of polishing and carving, it is basically no problem.

In addition, this mammoth tooth was specially picked out by the fat man, and the shape is more suitable for making a rich armor world, and it didn't take much effort to polish it, so the shape was successfully repaired, and then the grinding head was on, and the tortoise shell world was carved out in a while.

When I was fat, I took it in my hand, inspected the work, and had nothing to say, so I took out twenty yuan directly.

After the fat man, no one opened his mouth to process things for a while, after all, not everyone who watched the excitement carried unprocessed materials.

Fang Zheng's eyes swept around the crowd, and although a few people were eager to try, they still didn't say anything about letting him process things.

On such a hot day, Founder didn't want to wait here.

"Is there anyone else? If there's no one, I'll call it a day and reopen in the afternoon. Fang Zheng shouted, and the medicine started.

"Wait a minute, little brother, can you make a Shih Tzu pot?" Seeing that Fang was about to leave, a middle-aged man finally couldn't help it and raised a piece of wood in his hand.

"Yes, of course you can, as long as you can say it, I can basically do it." Fang Zheng said very confidently, then took the wood in the middle-aged man's hand, looked at it, and asked, "Xiaoye red sandalwood?" ”

"Hmm." The middle-aged man nodded.

Although in the past two years, because of the rampant use of various counterfeit wood such as Zambian blood sandalwood, as well as the production of Indian small-leaved red sandalwood plantations, the price of small-leaved red sandalwood is not as expensive as two or three years ago, but the price of handicrafts has always been very high.

After grinding it with sandpaper, a sandalwood fragrance floated out, and Fang Zheng rubbed it in the polished place with water, and suddenly flashed a dazzling red in the sun, among which Venus was dotted.

"The cost of work is 100, is it done?" Fang Zheng looked up and asked.

"Okay." The middle-aged man nodded happily, then took out his mobile phone and flipped through it, found a photo, and asked Fang Zheng to look at it: "This is the purple clay pot at home, can the little brother make it like this?" ”

Comparing the approximate size, he made a draft in his heart, nodded his head, and then pointed to the pattern of the purple clay pot in the photo: "If these are carved on the red sandalwood, it will affect the pulp effect of playing in the future." Moreover, if you carve these, you can't only charge a hundred for labor. ”

"Can you still carve it out?" Originally, middle-aged people thought that they would only make a vegetarian pot, and the top would be smooth, but they didn't expect to listen to the meaning of Fangzheng, and they could also make one according to the map!

The middle-aged man immediately said: "I have always wanted to make a red sandalwood pot, and match it with the purple sand pot at home. ”

Fang Zheng was also stunned for a moment, but he was still ready to respond, after all, the business of sending to the door must not be done. Besides, carving such a red sandalwood pot is much more rewarding than doing tortoiseshell in the world.

"Carving patterns, the cost of labor is five hundred." Fang Zheng was not too black-hearted, and opened a price that was not too high: "The purple clay pot should be engraved on it, and if it is made of red sandalwood, I am going to emboss this pattern." In this way, even if the carving is broken, it can be polished into a plain pot. If you polish the plain pot at the end, you will be charged 100 yuan. ”

It is undeniable that if you find an acquaintance, the price of machine carving is much lower, but if you want to be exactly the same as the purple clay pot, it is basically impossible. After all, machine carving has a fixed pattern, and in the process of making purple clay pots, there are also the maker's own ideas.

For example, the purple clay pot in the middle-aged man's mobile phone is shaped like a Shih Tzu pot, but there is a picture of Lao Suo fishing on the front, and it is not easy to imitate this pattern alone, not to mention that the founder is also ready to emboss.

"It's okay, it's okay, little brother, you can do it." The middle-aged man flipped through his phone again and showed the patterns in the phone to Fang Zheng.

It can be seen that the middle-aged man is a person who loves pots, and all the details of a purple clay pot are stored in the mobile phone.

Fang Zheng nodded, first picked two small carving knives, and then replaced the table mill with sandpaper and the hand drill with a grinding head. If it is jade, jade or amber beeswax, you can't use a carving knife at all, you can carve it directly with a grinding needle, but red sandalwood can't, if you use a grinding needle, you may be able to break the wood.

After getting ready, Fang Zheng did not start work immediately, but stared at the red sandalwood in front of him, and began to beat the draft in his heart.
