Chapter 157: Wood Carving Products
There is still a lot of money in hand, and the eldest sister's family and friends racked their brains to find a source of goods for the three of them. The artist's Lan Lan suggested that he could buy some ready-made wooden crafts, the wood products here are all machined and beautiful, such as the gorgeous wood lines used on the frames, the doors and windows carved on the buildings, the partitions, the screens, the decorations used on the furniture, and some wood carving ornaments, waist wear, and chest are all very beautiful.
So the eldest sister and Mr. Zhong found a lot of relevant information on the Internet, and the result was that there are many houses in Beijing that specialize in such wooden crafts. There are also special woodworking products from Shandong, which is simply a collection of wooden handicrafts. I got in touch with one of them, and I didn't say how much to buy, but more than a dozen wood factories in the same industry called to ask about the situation. The eldest sister and Mr. Zhong wondered: Could it be that these people have his heart? In fact, when the eldest sister called, these people were drinking with the small director of the factory who was contacted, and they all knew about it.
Nothing else, let's go check it out first. So the shopping team set off again and went to the carpentry factory in Xicheng. The site is a little off, and it's still in the city.
Not only were the three of them stunned, but the eldest sister and his wife, who had lived in Beijing for decades, also knew that there were so many varieties of wooden handicrafts, and their eyes were opened! Yun'er is going to be ecstatic: these things are finely made, simple in design, different in style, natural in color, novel and chic...... Why didn't you know that there were so many treasures?
Wooden handicrafts are roughly divided into several categories, such as furniture, pendants, ornaments, daily necessities, toys, jewelry, gifts and gift packaging. The main materials are peach, ebony, nanmu, nanmu, nanmu, red pine, boxwood and so on. It is still dominated by peach and red pine. Among them, there are a small number of solid wood doors, wooden tables, wooden chairs, wooden sofas, executive desks, bookcases, beds, Bogu shelves, screens, as well as wood lines used on furniture, carved lattice doors and windows, screens and some small decorations, etc., all of which are hollow and carved, which are much more exquisite than ordinary furniture. People in the Qing Dynasty believed in God and Buddhism, so there were some Buddhist statues, Buddhist beads, prayer beads, bracelets and other Buddhist household items in the handicrafts purchased, as well as eight immortals, fortune boys, eighteen arhats, birthday stars, God of Wealth, fragrant wood elephants, three sheep Kaitai, Zhong Kui, Guan Gong, dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, Pixiu and other immortals, statues of divine beasts, Panlong Huabiao, also including wooden swords, peach axes and other mascots; Wooden ornaments are a large part of the proportion of wooden handicrafts. Among them, the hollow carving is very exquisite, the blessing word pendant, the nine dragons offer treasure, the eight immortals cross the sea, the fortune Pixiu, the double dragon play beads, the phoenix peony, the peacock open the screen, the auspicious dragon Xianrui, the golden rooster annunciation, the carp leaping dragon gate, the grand plan, the eight horses take off, etc., it is really like a god, vivid. Bought some of such products. Because they are relatively large in shape and the carving process is very complicated, the price is more expensive.
There are also a variety of small wood carvings in wood carving products, such as waist wear, wooden beads, etc., the size of the waist is only five or six centimeters square or round, diamond-shaped, as well as hexagonal, octagonal and three-dimensional. It can just replace a sachet, with a ruyi knot on the top, colored beads and tassels on the bottom, which is another style of decoration. There are 12 zodiac signs, happy charms, peace charms, tiger heads, dragon heads, leopard heads, contentment and happiness, Lu Lutong, vajra, auspicious wishes, dragon play beads, etc., the price is much cheaper. Yun'er felt that she would definitely be welcomed by the young boys and girls of the Qing Dynasty. There are also a large number of carved wood beads, both large and small, which are decorations of another style. I bought a lot of small wood carvings to make waist wear. I also bought a lot of wooden beads with holes, and all kinds of beads, which can be worn through curtains, bracelets, and can also be used as decoration for cloth products. Compared with plastic colored beads, it is another charm.
In addition, there are also household decorations such as plates, wooden wall clocks, wooden crutches, wooden bowls, wooden plates, wooden plates, wooden coasters, wooden fruit plates, wooden fruit pots, tea tubes, dressing boxes, wine sets, tea cups, coffee tables, wine sets, chessboards, wooden boxes, paperweights, plaques, door stickers, screens, pen holders, bags, glasses cases, keychains and so on. There are also wooden jewelry: all kinds of carved wooden mirrors, combs, hairpins, jewelry boxes, etc., as well as children's toys: natural color building blocks, keel waterwheels, small cabinets, twelve locks, wooden stickers, disassembly and assembly toys, bowling, alphabet boxes, small wooden figures, educational toys, architectural models, sailboats, puppets, carts, wooden gourds, wooden goldfish, dominoes, various art frames and so on. Most of these wooden crafts are machine-machined or semi-handmade, and all of them are ingenious and admirable.
Serious barristers strongly appeal to be made to personally select the goods and monitor them all the way to the end. The purchase of wooden crafts began. Seeing the goods they selected, there is no manufacturer who is not stunned, these things should not be eaten and drunk, buy so many at once, don't you wait to lose money? Serious lawyers "do not change bad habits", strictly grasp the price size, and reduce the price of all products to a level that can no longer be reduced. Even so, the manufacturer still makes money, but it is just some wood, carved out by machine, and then sprayed with fine varnish. People buy so many products at one time, of course, the price is let go again and again, and making money is the last word! The wood carving product alone cost a million yuan. Not only the practical things mentioned above, but also many very delicately carved waist pendants and breasts were also bought, spending a million yuan. The manufacturer's giveaways are hollow carved waist wear, hollow small cabinets, art frames, etc.
When Hailong saw the neighbor's wrought iron factory, he suggested whether to buy some wrought iron products, such as exterior wall guardrails, stair handrails, balcony railings, gates, candlesticks, tables and chairs, bed frames, gates, anti-theft windows, flower pot racks, swing racks, warehouse doors, etc., etc. A total of eight cars. These wrought iron products may not be popular with people from all walks of life in the Qing Dynasty, but they will certainly be liked by Westerners, and his suggestion was readily adopted, and another 400,000 yuan was spent.
When I came back from Shanghai, Wang Ye wanted to express it to everyone, because it was too troublesome for all friends. Or one person to give 500,000?
The eldest sister said: "They will definitely not accept the money. Why don't you buy them a souvenir that is more suitable, such as a laptop or a more upscale mobile phone? ”
Yun'er said: "We are not giving money, but a piece of sincerity." Needless to say, take Xiaoli as an example, she has to be busy until midnight every day. Her family is in difficulty, her parents still live in two brick houses, and she has an eighty-year-old grandmother. Wouldn't it be okay to buy them a house? It is still possible to buy a two-bedroom apartment for 500,000 yuan in Harbin. And Sister Ling, if Yun'er hadn't thrown the child to her with confidence, then Yun'er wouldn't have been able to do anything. How healthy do you see baby Babe being fed by her? There are also Serious and Sea Dragon, if it weren't for them to help buy things, we wouldn't know how much we would lose and how much money we would spend. And we won't deal with the ...... of the shippers."
"It's definitely not okay to give 500,000, so the three of you can buy a laptop for each of them. Twenty or thirty thousand yuan is about the same. Ouyang Erlao doesn't need it, you can buy them two high-end mobile phones for the elderly, serious, Hailong, Xiaoli, Tingting, buy a laptop, and Lan Lan don't buy it if they already have it. And Ling Juan won't buy a mobile phone, my old clock doesn't have to buy anything, and Professor Xiao Zhong can buy a notebook, and Aunt Xiaoli can buy a mobile phone. See who was left behind? ”
"There are also Director Ouyang and his wife, as well as Gao Qiang......"
Raised his hand solemnly and said: "Forget it from my uncle, his unit has bought him two mobile phones, and there are two sets of notebooks, and all the ones I use in my hands are still given by my uncle." I have already bought a mobile phone for my grandparents, so I can represent my uncle. Gao Qiang just bought a mobile phone. ”
"And Xiaoman, it should make a notebook."
In this way, 30,000 per person really needs hundreds of thousands. But Wang Ye and Yun'er insisted on buying it, and they themselves wanted to have a high-end mobile phone and laptop. 600,000 yuan is about the same.
The eldest sister thought of something. Our big shopping malls here all implement a membership system, buy a shopping mall card, and then buy things to enjoy the member's preferential price, in fact, it is also a way of promotion. You can do it too. But it doesn't have to be called a membership card, it can still be called a discount card. When I go to your place to enjoy food or cold drinks, I will get a discount card of 20% or 9% off, and you will earn it back if you go a few more times. There is still time to choose the pattern by yourself and go to the printing house to print, it is the same material as your bank card, but you can't save money in it. When you arrive at the hotel, put the card on the table, and when you check out, it will naturally be 20% off. And this card can be lent to relatives and friends, anyway, there is no name on it, who can use it? In this way, we will expand the number of people who use the card and increase the number of customers for you. ”
"Okay, okay, how did Yun'er know that there was still this way to make money? Then set a little bit in the printing house? Yun'er doesn't know how much to set? ”
"Then 6,600 pieces, take the auspicious meaning of '66 6 Shun', each card sells for six taels of silver, and your preferential money will be recovered."
"Thank you, big sister. How much is the processing fee you mentioned? ”
"The processing fee is up to five cents, do you calculate?"
"More than three thousand three hundred."
"Then make up 50,000. The eldest sister suggested that you buy some gifts for Tian Liang's family and let him buy them himself, he must be embarrassed. ”
"Yun'er is buying one after another."
"That's good, you also have a relationship."
"He is Yun'er's savior, and Yun'er will definitely not treat him badly. Liangzi's daughter-in-law is the most caring person around Yun'er, not only has a good character, but also is very capable, blocking a lot of trouble for Yun'er. Yun'er didn't dare to say much about the fish, for fear that Xiaoli would ask them.
Seeing that the time to go back was getting closer and closer, Mr. Zhong thought about the goods that the prince could not imagine, and helped him buy a lot of excellent varieties of fruits and agricultural films, tarpaulins, plastic sheets, and other materials again. There are also new scientific research achievements of the subordinate units of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences: vegetables, fruits, asparagus, melons, peppers, bell peppers, horn peppers, peppers, tomatoes, broccoli, zucchini, apples, waxy corn, sweet corn, burst corn, white corn, high-oil corn, high-starch corn, and Tangkang corn; There are also cucumbers, sweet potatoes and other seeds. There are also 10 sets of generators and stoves for straw gas stoves, disposable paper bowls for making ice cream, and paper cups for drinking cold drinks. These things cost 100,000 yuan.
Lan Lan proposed to buy some delicate home textiles, home decorations, kitchen catering and other fabric products as samples to go back to processing. So, the eldest sister, Xiaoli, Tian Liang, Wang Ye, Hailong, and Zhengcheng all went into battle, and bought some fabric boutiques from the light industry textile store at wholesale prices. For example, complete sets of bedding, bedding, bedspreads, quilt covers, pillows, pillowcases, pillows, cushions, cushions, slippers, down products, sofa cushions, blankets, tablecloths, coffee table cloths, dining chair cushions, health pillows, cross-stitch ribbon embroidered frames, gauze flowers, brocade flowers, gold leaf flowers, children's pillows, table and chair mats, bag sachets, shopping bags, vacuum compression bags, glass pendant curtains, etc., etc., everything that the Qing Dynasty people can accept almost bought, spent 100,000 yuan. Gift 10,000 yuan for similar products.
Yun'er didn't know what to buy anymore, so she felt that her heart was full, and if she bought it again, it would overflow. Recently, Yun'er's celestial eyes have improved a lot compared to when they first opened, not only can they see things through the wall, but they can also see other time and space, and they can also see the creatures hidden in the crowd that are not humans, and the farthest can see the things above the stars in the starry sky in the universe. But Yun'er didn't feel excited at all, let alone feel that she was superior. Because when she saw it, she was shocked, and sometimes a little scared, this state is normal. She hadn't told anyone about that.
