Chapter 6 Sewing Machines (Part I)

Wei Hong briefly looked at the man in front of him, in his early twenties, nearly one meter eight tall, with a big cake face, honest appearance, due to sweating in front of the iron furnace all year round, the upper body of ** is full of explosive muscles, especially the two arms, thick and powerful, even thicker than the two legs of ordinary women.

"Brother, what a spirit." Wei Hong said casually, originally I wanted to talk about a good figure, but if I think about it, forget it, I am a big straight man, and it always sounds weird to praise other men for their good figure.

The man touched his nose and smiled very innocently: "Childe, are you here to strike iron, or is there something else?" ”

"I'm here to strike iron, but what I'm going to fight is something you've never heard of or seen, so I don't know if you have that technique." Due to the urgency of time, Wei Hong didn't want to waste too much time, if this man couldn't fight, Wei Hong had to find the next home as quickly as possible.

As soon as he heard this, the man was happy, patted his chest, and put it in his chest: "As long as you can come up with a pattern, I can make it for you!" ”

Seeing that the man was so confident, Wei Hong stopped talking nonsense, entered the house with the man, asked the man to take out the paper and pen, and carved all the parts molds that had been outlined in his mind on the paper.

The man took the drawings and looked at them for a long time, and finally nodded heavily: "Childe, please okay, just these things, within three days, I can make them all for you!" ”

In Wei Hong's world, no matter how difficult the parts are to enter the workshop with a machine tool, they can be made in a few minutes, but if you want to make a part this year, it all depends on the craftsman to use simple tools, little by little, Wei Hong didn't want to be a blacksmith, so he responded.

In terms of price, Wei Hong can't be sloppy, after all, this Baiwen is all his belongings, and if he can save it, he will save it: "Brother, I don't know how much it costs to make these parts?" ”

The man thought for a moment and gave a real price: "If you bring your own iron materials, it will definitely be cheap, but if the iron materials are provided by me, it will be more expensive, so let's give one hundred and twenty yuan, and after it is finished, I will personally send it to your home for you." ”

One hundred and twenty dollars? Wei Hong touched his nose, his face was slightly embarrassed, there was only a hundred wen in his pocket, if he couldn't pay for it, wouldn't it make people laugh? If you don't have money, what kind of iron are you going to play? What about the boredom?

Wei Hong has been a manager for so many years, not only will study manufacturing, but also deal with customers, its ability to communicate and bargain is still very strong, but bargaining with ordinary small traders or the big girl on the sedan chair head: "One hundred and twenty Wen is a real price, but, brother, although this is the first time I come to do business with you, but it is by no means the last time, there will be no big work left to you to do in the future, it is better to do this, you charge a few less money, let's make a friend, as long as you need to strike iron in the future, I will be the first to find you, how?" ”

The man's face was a little embarrassed, he did things by himself at a penny price, only charged the cost of work, never more, and it was precisely because of this that he was not afraid of the deep alley, and survived in this alley, one hundred and twenty wen is definitely a real price, if it drops again, it will be a loss-making deal.

Seeing that the man didn't speak for a long time, Wei Hong's eyes rolled, and he said: "Brother, if the iron is provided by me myself, how much money do you need if you only charge for the work?" ”

The man replied without thinking: "Thirty Wen." ”

"Okay, just thirty wen! You just have to make it, and when it is finished, I will make up for all the iron consumed by you, how about it? Wei Hong said confidently.

The man thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay!" When I send it to you, you can prepare the iron, and I will bring it back by the way. ”

"Then it's hard work." Wei Hong learned from the appearance of the literati on TV, saluted the man, and thanked him again and again.

Thirty dollars to the man, Wei Hong left, as for where to find the consumed iron, Wei Hong already has some eyebrows in his heart, out of the alley, Wei Hong wandered around the street looking for beggars, every time he found a beggar, he told the other party a sentence: "Before dinner today, if you can take a pound of scrap iron to my house to find me, I will invite you to have a meal, and give another penny!" "It's not a penny, it's just enough to eat a bowl of noodles or two steamed buns, but inside and out, it's two meals, and it's a great attraction for beggars.

After putting the words out, Wei Hong went home, and the gate of Wei Hong's house was crowded by beggars in the evening, Wei Hong and Wan Niang stood in front of the door, swept their eyes, and there were more than 40 beggars gathered in front of the door, each carrying a few pieces of scrap iron in their hands, some less than a catty, and some more than a catty, all waiting for the iron to be exchanged for money.

Seeing this situation, Wei Hongle couldn't keep his mouth shut, and hurriedly instructed Wan Niang to go to the bun shop next door to buy five cages of steamed buns, Wan Niang frowned, I don't know what Wei Hong is doing, but he can only obediently recruit, after the buns are bought, Wei Hong asked the beggars to line up and stand up, and use the scrap iron in his hands to receive the buns and a penny, and the excess one pound will be given to three buns, and the less than one pound will only be given one bun.

Wanniang, who was subcontracting on the side, looked at the scrap iron handed over by the beggars, and had palpitations: "Husband, what are the scrap iron handed over by these beggars, there are doorknobs, rivets, and plowshares, are they all stealing other people's things in order to change buns." If this is known by the yamen, not only will these beggars suffer, but we are afraid that we will not be able to escape, right? ”

Wei Hong only cared about Chengtie, and there was no worry on his face: "Wan Niang, let me ask you, if the doorknob of our house is pried away by a beggar, will you report to the official?" ”

Wan Niang thought for a moment and shook her head: "No, a mere doorknob is not worth ......"

Wei Hong smiled: "So, you just have to rest assured that the bold subcontractor is, besides, let's only do this once, and we won't take it as an example." ”

After sending more than forty beggars away, Wei Hong looked at the scrap iron piled up into a hill in the yard, and his heart was happy, how can this pile of iron have two hundred catties, in addition to the fifty catties of iron needed by the blacksmith, there are still one hundred and fifty catties left, Wei Hong calculated the account in his heart, even if it is calculated into the money spent on building parts, as well as the benefits to the beggars, he has earned more than 100 yuan inside and out, this transaction is a good deal!

"Husband, what about all this iron?" Wan Niang stayed next to Wei Hong, not knowing why Wei Hong always smirked, so she asked casually.

Wei Hongyan said: "Don't move here, I'll find a rag to cover it, so as not to rust from the sudden rain, and after three days, the blacksmith will come to deliver the parts, and I will sell all the iron to him!" Hehe, people ask blacksmiths to spend money, let's ask blacksmiths to make money! ”;
