Chapter 64: The opening of the Wood Art Pavilion
is busy with the affairs of the wood carving shop, and Li Miaomiao naturally can't hire it.
went back to the village and invited Aunt Zhang to come, and promised Li Xiaofang to help her mother before, but she never had a chance, but this time she just caught up.
It's not that she hasn't considered the two aunts in the old mansion, maybe the shadow left before is too big, so she can't trust them at will.
I'm afraid of chilling Li Dazhuang's heart, after all, she has been helping other people around her, and she neglects her own family, which is really unreasonable.
In addition, the money shopkeeper of Fumanlou ordered another hundred jars of kimchi, and she really didn't have the strength to deal with it, so she gave the recipe for kimchi to the old house.
When he first sent it, Li Qingshan refused to accept it, which also made Li Miaomiao feel satisfied, and he didn't regret doing this.
She personally took the people in the old house to do it a few times before she was relieved, after all, it was the entrance thing, and she must be cautious.
Although kimchi is a long-term business, the profit is not high, and in the case that she can't make small profits and quick turnover, she doesn't mind using it to make a favor and avoid possible troubles.
Naturally, they also signed a confidentiality agreement, it is one thing to help their own family, if anyone takes her things to help others, she will never allow it. Not to mention the mother's family of the two aunts, even her own two vampire-like aunts, she doesn't want to help at all.
Aunt Zhang got started quickly, whether it was making noodles or mixing soup, it was much more convenient than her, the founder. Li Miaomiao completely got rid of the matter here.
The wood carving shop gave her a very literary name - Mu Yixuan, which was unanimously recognized by everyone.
The decoration of the store is also simple, Li Miaomiao gave Changlin a rough description of what he needed, and Changlin found someone from his father-in-law's family, and in less than three days, everything was ready.
Brought into the store, Li Miaomiao was very satisfied, it was the modern kind of shelves, arranged in rows, for people to choose.
And she fixed nails on one of the walls, and used them to hang small wood carvings, which she was going to make in the shape of a key chain, and put on a rope that could be used as an ornament.
With the help of Chunniang's mother and son, the store was completely cleaned up and waited for the goods to arrive.
Brother Changlin alone will definitely not be able to rely on him, Li Miaomiao discussed with him, "Brother Changlin, at this speed, it will definitely not be able to catch up with the opening, do you want to invite two carpentry masters." ”
"I was about to tell you that I was really too slow to do it alone, and I was thinking about asking my two uncles to help, their skills are better than mine." Brother Changlin said.
After thinking about it, he added, "Miao Miao, don't worry, they are all honest people, I will also let them sign a confidentiality agreement, and they will definitely not do anything bad to the store." ”
Li Miaomiao said with a smile, "Of course I believe it, then it will trouble Brother Changlin to find someone." ”
Changlin was happy when he heard this, and drove the carriage to his father-in-law's village.
Changlin Yue's family name is Wu, and the old Wu family is a well-known carpenter in the village, and the family has been doing carpentry for several generations.
Seeing that his son-in-law was driving the carriage to the door, the old Wu family hurriedly welcomed people in.
"Why is the son-in-law here, is there any life again?" Old Wu Tou asked, the son-in-law has brought them a lot of business recently, and his income is almost as much as half a year old.
"Yes Dad, I have something I want to say to you and my two uncles," Changlin said.
Lao Wu Tou drove out a few children, leaving only the old woman and his son and daughter-in-law in the house.
Seeing that the two sisters-in-law were also there, Changlin hesitated slightly, thinking that they were all a family, and it was impossible to hide it, so he said, "You also know that Miao Miao and I opened a shop in the town, specializing in selling wood carvings, and I want to ask my two uncles to help too."
Everyone in the Wu family was overjoyed when they heard it, this is a good opportunity, although there is also business in the village, but it is very rare.
Things made of wood are durable, and most people will not change them for many years, and now there are so many carpenters. Although it is not difficult to get along at home, it is limited to having enough to eat. There is another income, and everyone can't ask for it.
"That's great, it's better to be a son-in-law, thinking about everything at home," Mrs. Wu said.
Others chimed in.
Changlin said again, "I also borrowed Miao Miao's favor, although I am also half of the owner, but you also know that I don't have that much ability, thanks to Miao Miao's willingness to help." ”
Everyone in the Wu family agrees that the son-in-law's good life only started with Li Miaomiao.
"It's thanks to that girl." Why are other people's girls so good?
"So, you have to follow her, there are more rules, don't be surprised when I say it." Changlin Road Road.
"You say yes", Wu Youcai, the eldest son of the Wu family, said.
"Doing business is all about being unique, so it is natural to sign a confidentiality agreement with Miao Miao, and you can't leak things to others."
The old couple of the Wu family and the two sons had no opinions, but the two daughters-in-law showed dissatisfied expressions, and when Changlin saw it, he had to stand still and wait for the results of the Wu family.
"Sign, of course you have to sign, and it's natural to pay attention to doing business." Old man Wu was the first to speak. The two sons chimed in.
Changlin was relieved at this time, so he took Wu Youcai and Wu Youfa to the town to see Li Miaomiao.
Li Miaomiao saw the two coming, and greeted politely before starting to talk about business.
"Presumably Brother Changlin has told you, we can go to work after signing the agreement. The first month is one tael of silver per person, and if you do a good job in the future, it will rise again. ”
The two of them were overjoyed when they heard it, a tael of silver, they didn't dare to think about it. With neat signatures, they just know how to write their names.
There is no backyard in the store, so you can only work in your own home, Li Miaomiao said, "If you work in the future, you don't have to come to the town, just ......."
"It's in my house, I'm with you," Changlin said precipitously.
"Hey, it's all right", the brothers didn't have any opinion.
Letting the two brothers go to the carriage and wait first, Li Miaomiao asked, "Why did Brother Changlin arrange it like this?" ”
"I'm also on the safe side, although I should trust my family, but I won't tell you, I'm going to Wu's house today, and my two sisters-in-law are fine. I don't want to hurt you in the end, I look at the point in my house, and don't let them take the drawings home, and the hidden danger is smaller. ”
Li Miaomiao felt that her arrangement couldn't be better, but she didn't expect Changlin to grow a lot during this time.
Li Miaomiao went to the noodle management to explain, and then went back to the village with them, the wood carvings carved in the past few days had to be polished, and she didn't have to go to the town.
She drew a lot of patterns, and there were some of the dolls she made before, all of them were old carpenters, and the three of them made them very fast.
Soon she felt that she couldn't be busy alone, so she had to go to the old house to find Li Cuntao for help, and she also opened a salary of one tael a month.
Li Cuntao doesn't care about wages, as long as he can escape from his mother's complaints all day long, it's fine.
The group was busy for a few days, and finally at the beginning of March, the wood art shop opened.
Gu Zhanggui and Aunt Xie all came to cheer and bought a lot of things when they left.
Because the wood carving opened up the reputation of the noodle shop as early as the noodle shop, there were many repeat customers who came to buy things this time.
On the first day of opening, the number of customers was full and many people were tired. The Wu brothers and Li Cuntao are all employees in the store, and they naturally want to come to the store to help when they open, and there are so many people in Rao, and they are still busy.
The big ones such as the Lucky Cat and the Golden Pig only sold about ten pieces, and the small HelloKitty and Rogue Rabbits sold a lot. The goods on the shelves were directly sold out, and while the store was not busy, Li Miaomiao hurriedly asked the four of them to go back to the village to make gifts.
Closed at night, and Chun Niang made an account, the big beckoning cat brother golden pig is three taels of silver, sold eight pieces of a total of twenty-four taels, like the rabbit and the like are sold in sets, also three taels of silver. It was sold for ninety taels, and those individual puppies, rabbits, and the like were only sold for a few dozen taels, but also fifteen taels of silver, so that they earned one hundred and twenty-nine taels a day.
Li Miaomiao and Chun Niang couldn't believe these numbers.
"Business in our store is really good," Chunniang said happily.
Li Miaomiao was also very happy in her heart, but she didn't show it, "It's only the first day of opening, everyone wants to be fresh, and it won't be certain in the future."
Chunniang thinks about it, but the word of mouth has been played, and there will be no customers in the future. The two of them cleaned up again before locking the door and leaving.
Li Dazhuang came to pick her up, and now Li Dazhuang sends the two back to the village every day and then comes to pick her up, but fortunately, it is not too far.
"The noodle restaurant business is okay, uncle?" Li Miaomiao hadn't been to a noodle restaurant for several days.
"It's good, there's a lot of people every day." Li Dazhuang replied.
"How's the kimchi at home?"
"A batch has been made, Fumanlou has taken it away, and the family is still doing it, it is set by some small restaurants, and some people in the town have also set some of them." Li Dazhuang talked about the situation one by one, and at the end, he added, "Miao Miao, thank you." ”
Li Miaomiao smiled and waved her hand, "Whatever polite words the uncle says, they are all family, and they should be." ”
Li Dazhuang's heart was moved, he didn't know what to say, he only held the reins tightly, trying to drive the horse more smoothly, so that Li Miaomiao would suffer less.
