Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Jiang Yichen is ready to go back to his hometown in the county to buy a house.
Before leaving, he repeatedly told Lai Shun'er and others that during the time he left, he should not take the initiative to contact the blue shark big drill, and even if he encountered it, it was best to avoid it. After all, the temperament of this wild animal is not so easy to grasp, so you still have to pay attention to safety.
Lai Shun'er said that he remembered it, and let Brother Chenzi rest assured that he would go on the road.
Back in the city of Cangjiang, it was already late June, and although it had just rained a moderate rain, the summer heat was still coming.
After spending some time on the island, I felt a little unaccustomed to entering the city. The environment is noisy, the temperature is higher than that of the island, and the air quality is much more polluted.
But this is also a helpless thing, the vast majority of people in the world have the social attribute of living in groups, whether it is psychological or practical needs. Therefore, the more attractive the bigger the city, even if the road congestion and air pollution do not matter, on the contrary, few people are willing to settle in those remote places with excellent ecological environment, and at most they go around as tourist destinations.
I'm afraid it's rare to see a leisurely and happy islander like myself, and it's a strange thing.
Before returning to his hometown to buy a house, he had to deal with another matter.
That is the new batch of new goods that I got by diving to the underwater pearl mussel habitat in the southwest of Yunsha Island not long ago, and I need to make a handover with Xiaojia's sister.
In the three iron buckets in the main passage of the space, all the harvests of this time are stored, and they are all female mussels with a length of more than 20 centimeters.
Because the bucket is filled with room temperature space ice water, the environment is superior, and the female mussels have survived so far, and not a single one has died.
Hurry up and let Xiaojia's sister take the beads, and release them when she is done.
Jiang Yichen drove the Tiguan car into the city, and first went to the Dingxiangyuan main store on Xishuijing Street to have a look, chatted with Aunt Wu and Liu Minxiu about the business situation, and handled a few documents.
Then I went to the Koufuduo production base in the No. 9 courtyard of Xiushui Lane and met Zhang Fenglan. The latter took him to the newly rented Seventeenth House for inspection. The renovation and installation of the equipment is already in the final stages and will soon be ready for full-scale production.
After having lunch in Courtyard No. 9 on the spot and explaining some things, Jiang Yichen drove away and went to the Blue Starfish Marine Arts and Crafts Store on Hongguang Street.
Arriving at his destination, he parked the car on the side of the road and pushed the door down. Then walk to the back of the car. In order to hide people's eyes, he opened the trunk and made a gesture of taking something, and then lifted the three iron buckets from the cold space in turn and put them on the ground.
Since it is not a weekend, there are fewer customers at this noon hour. In the hall on the first floor of Blue Starfish, Qiu Xinyi was the only one sitting on a chair to rest. Seeing the boss coming through the glass window, she quickly got up and came out to greet her.
After a brief chat, the two of them entered the store with three buckets one after the other, and walked down the stairs to the second floor.
In the studio, Su Xiaojia, who was wearing a white overalls, was taking a nap, heard a knock on the door, and hurriedly tidied up her clothes. Get up and open the door.
Seeing that it was Brother Chenzi who came, a glimmer of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Xiaojia, I heard that your business is doing well, and you can't even supply raw materials, which is very powerful."
Jiang Yichen put down the bucket and said with a smile, while his eyes scanned the room. I saw all kinds of handicrafts resting on the large workbench, some of which were doing inlays. Some are doing packaging, and it looks like the business volume is really up.
It is understood that the current situation in the Golden Conch Forum has been opened, in addition to the same city netizens to visit, online shopping orders are increasing day by day, and even have the momentum of catching up.
Su Xiaojia pursed her lips and smiled, and moved a chair. wiped it with a rag and asked Jiang Yichen to sit down.
She then looked back at the three large buckets.
"Oh, this is the female mussel that I just got from someone, and she's all alive. Well. Thank you. Jiang Yichen said, and took the water cup handed over by Qiu Xinyi.
Qiu Xinyi and Su Xiaojia exchanged sign language twice, then turned around and went downstairs to look at the store.
Su Xiaojia heard that a batch of new female mussels had been entered, and she was immediately interested. Immediately took a flashlight from the table, squatted next to the bucket to shine into it, rolled up his sleeves and put his left hand into the bucket and rummaged around from time to time.
"These are the original triangular female mussels, which are not too big, and they are only about 20 centimeters. The total number of more than eighty was made. Jiang Yichen introduced.
According to previous experience, most of the pearls produced by female mussels of this size are more than one centimeter in diameter. After all, the formation of pearls is a long-term process, and the probability of medium and small mussels producing large pearls is extremely low, so you basically don't expect high-end goods with a diameter of about two centimeters like the last time.
I only hope that the proportion of crooked melons and cracked dates will be less, and a batch of mid-range beads can be harvested.
Su Xiaojia rummaged a few times and nodded, she was already very satisfied with these female mussels. Of course, what the final result will be, you have to open it with a tool to do it accurately.
"Oh, by the way, this barrel here is a bit special, I haven't seen it before, it may be a new variety, you see."
Jiang Yichen remembered something, so he got up and brought the bucket by the door to Su Xiaojia.
The bucket contained the newly discovered mussels of this dive, which were different from the other mother-of-pearl mussels, with a fan-shaped, light gray body and a uniform dark arc on the surface.
At that time, all the largest ones were caught, a total of about 20 animals, and the average body length was nearly 30 centimeters. But it's not sure if it's another species of mother-of-pearl?
Seeing this, Su Xiaojia was even more curious, she reached out and took out a new variety of mussels, feeling that the weight was heavy and pressing, which was obviously heavier than those triangular mussels. It is then placed in a stainless steel basin and then brought to the workbench to be carefully examined with the help of bright light.
After looking at it again and again for a while, she frowned and thought about it, and it seemed that she didn't know this new thing.
Then he pulled the laptop sideways, slid the mouse, and compared the pictures on the Internet.
Jiang Yichen didn't bother her, he walked to the other side, picked up the small shell carving work on the table, and watched it with great interest.
At present, most of the goods sold in the Blue Sea Star store are finished products purchased directly from the manufacturer, and then nourished by the space ice water stock solution to improve the grade; The other small part is the purchase of raw materials or semi-finished products, which are processed by Xiaojia's sisters.
The latter part is more well-made and the overall shape is more creative. As for the price, it is naturally more expensive.
After about a quarter of an hour, Su Xiaojia was still sitting in front of the computer with one hand on her cheek, and it seemed that she had not found an accurate picture.
"Forget it, Xiaojia, don't check. Let's follow the old method, just open it and see if everything is clear. Jiang Yichen said. (To be continued)
