Chapter 11: Selling Baskets

In the blink of an eye, the sun moved half the sky to the west, and two hours had passed in the afternoon.

Su Qiqiao stopped the movement in his hand, wiped the sweat on his face, looked at the small basket woven in his hand, and sneered.

Although this basket is a little crooked, but fortunately, the overall look is barely presentable, sturdy and durable, and it can be regarded as a semi-successful product.

"Hahaha, it's good, it's really good to make it up like this for the first time." Wang Qingyun saw Yile and couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

"How do you make a base for this...... I can't wear it. Xiaolian's face was anxious, she slapped the mosquito on her arm with her free hand, she was upset and irritable, she felt a pain all over her body, and simply threw the basket in her hand to the ground, complaining impatiently.

"This thorn is so hard, you have to keep looking for the right one to insert it, it's troublesome!"

"It's the first time, just take your time." Wang Qingyun saw a smile and couldn't help but shake his head, "To learn this thing, you have to calm down, you can't be impatient, and you can only learn well when your mind is calm." ”

After that, Wang Qingyun went into the shack and took out the other two baskets that had already been knitted, and said, "Plus these two, as well as the one I just knitted, it should be okay to sell the small one cheaply, you go to the town and sell these four baskets, and I will give you two copper plates per person at that time." ”

"Really!" As soon as Xiaolian heard the copper plate, she instantly became happy, plus the copper plate she earned by helping Wang Qingyun buy medicine, she can harvest three copper plates today and hand them over to Mrs. Wang, and eat a good meal without saying anything, and she doesn't have to be scolded and beaten!

"Of course it's true." Wang Qingyun smiled, looked at Su Qiqiao, who bowed his head and was silent, and was stunned, "Xiaoxiao, what do you want?" ”

"I'm thinking...... The wisteria stick, which looks like a wattle stick, should also be woven into a basket. Su Qiqiao stretched out his hand and pointed to a wisteria on the side, only to see that above the green vine were delicate purple flowers, which were pitiful.

Xiaolian was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips, and sneered, "Sister Qiqiao, you are too whimsical, if you can really use it, didn't Grandma Wang use it a long time ago, and you still need it?" ”

"There's no harm in giving it a try, but if it doesn't work, forget it." Su Qiqiao's heart moved, and he looked at Wang Qingyun, "Grandma, there are a lot of things like baskets on the street, if we weave them well, not only can they sell quickly, but we can also get a good price." ”

She just saw the wisteria stick, and she had a flash of inspiration before she thought of this idea, and she was unwilling to deny her idea without giving it a try.

“…… Let me see. Wang Qingyun's eyes lit up when he heard this, he walked over and pulled the wisteria hard, nodded with satisfaction, turned around and smiled, "What do you want to do?" ”

"I'll try." Su Qiqiao walked over, carefully cut a suitable wisteria, then compared the size and position, and began to intersperse it on his small basket.

After half an hour, Su Qiqiao let go of his hand and lifted it with surprise on his face, "Look!"

"Wow!" Xiaolian was already excited, and felt that Su Qiqiao had been wasting time doing useless work, so she didn't want to turn her head, but she glanced at it lightly, and she couldn't take her eyes off, and she was instantly stunned on the spot.

Originally, the small basket in Su Qiqiao's hand was a little ugly, and there were many small loopholes that were not sealed, but now it was just two slender and sturdy wisteria strips passing through, and this small basket instantly became perfect, especially the few wisteria flowers around the top of the basket, how unique and beautiful it looked, anyway, she liked it at first sight.

"Good! It's beautiful. Wang Qingyun squinted his eyes and laughed, took the basket and touched the bottom and edge of the basket twice, the smile on his face was even stronger, "Very good, strong and durable, and so good-looking, there is not much problem with the basket itself." ”

"That's great." Su Qiqiao patted his chest and smiled softly.

"I didn't expect you to be able to modify this for the first time, hey, no, it's old, it's not as good as a little girl who just learned." Wang Qingyun sighed twice and couldn't help laughing.

"What's the matter, grandma, I'm definitely not as good as you in terms of craftsmanship, maybe it's because I'm making it up for the first time, so I'm very bold and think differently." Su Qiqiao blushed, scratched his head and smiled.

She is different from Wang Qingyun, after all, she is a novice and doesn't know much, but she has ingenious ideas.

"Okay, that's a good point." Wang Qingyun was stunned for a moment, took her hand by hand, and smiled with relief on his face, "It's good to be young, unlike our older generation, who have made up their brains for so many years and are not flexible, and they will only be rigid, or you children are smart, promise grandma, and learn more things while you are young." ”

"yes, got it." Su Qiqiao smiled lightly, and her heart was full of warmth.

Xiaolian happily played with the basket, and suddenly smiled, "I'll pick some more wisteria, let's get more!"

"No need." Su Qiqiao was stunned for a moment, shook his head and refused, "That's it, if you make too much, it will look exaggerated, just simply decorate it to attract passers-by." ”

"Well, the basket doesn't need to be so exaggerated, the most important thing is to be durable and strong." Wang Qingyun nodded with satisfaction.

"Oh......" Xiaolian nodded reluctantly, "So that's it?" Don't get some of the other baskets? ”

"Hmm...... Let's just start with this one and try the effect. Su Qiqiao nodded, took the wisteria basket, asked Wang Qingyun about the selling price, and then took a big basket with his hand, "Let's go, see how it sells." ”

"Okay." Xiaolian saw that she was finally leaving, so she hurriedly picked up the other two big baskets and followed.

Wang Qingyun looked at the backs of the two, smiled, and continued to bow his head and weave the basket.

Bluestone Town.

The two found a relatively remote street, there were quite a few passers-by here, and there were no other little beggars, and more importantly, this place was some distance away from the beggars' shelter, and they didn't have to sell baskets while beware of the princess.

"Take a look, take a look, a fresh basket, sturdy and durable, and only five copper plates." Su Qiqiao shouted excitedly.

Xiaolian looked at the passers-by, her face was a little embarrassed, and she even couldn't sit still, "Sister Qiqiao, what are you doing so loudly, if they like it, they can ask directly, you are not reserved at all, ......"

"What are you selling something and being reserved, we are not some daughters...... " Su Qiqiao was stunned for a moment and said speechlessly.

"But we're beggars! If you sell things like this, they will definitely look down on us!" Xiaolian's face was flushed, and as soon as she raised her head, she quickly lowered her head as if she were a thief when she looked at the passers-by.

"Forget it, look at these people next to you, they are also selling, just like us, so now we are all sellers, what is there to be ashamed of." Su Qiqiao's face was calm, "What's more, it is precisely because we are beggars that we cannot be inferior and looked down upon by others, if you feel ashamed, you can just sit back." ”

After that, without waiting for Xiaolian to respond, she stood up and continued to scream.

Xiaolian was so ashamed that she almost wanted to get into the cracks in the ground, but as soon as she thought that she could make money by selling the baskets, she raised her head resignedly, looked at the passers-by, gritted her teeth and yelled, "Sell baskets......
