Chapter 172: Making Wreaths 1
When I returned home, I saw Liu Xiaoshi sitting in the yard weaving something with bamboo. All around her were slender bamboo strands.
"Sister-in-law, what are you making up?" Li chirped and sat on the bench, picked up a bamboo wire and held it in his hand.
"I'm weaving baskets, and when the time comes, I'll sell them in the town and subsidize them to supplement my family." Liu Xiaoshi paused, "In the past, I lived with Erlang, and I generally relied on what he got from hunting, but now it's different, I still have one in my stomach, and I will eat and drink more carefully in the future, so I have to plan for him now." ”
"Sister-in-law, how much can a bamboo basket sell for!"
"Ten cents."
In ancient times, one tael of silver was equal to 10,000 wen, wouldn't it be necessary to make a thousand baskets to earn one tael of silver?
Oh my God, Mom, how do you know that money is so hard to earn, she also gave the fat woman five taels of silver, it really scared her!
Li Chirp was silent for a while, it was really not easy to make money in ancient times. Now the family is only not in and out, if it goes on like this, it will soon be stretched, this belly is getting bigger day by day, one day the child jumps out, and the family doesn't even have the money to buy rice.
It seems that it is not feasible to continue to be a rice worm in this situation, and we must find a way to make more money.
"Sister-in-law, can you teach me how to weave baskets?"
"Brother and sister, it's very hard to make this up, you have fine skin and tender meat, and you must have all the mouths in your hands when you learn it."
"It's okay, Saburo is working hard now, I always have to share some for him." Li chirped and rubbed his hands, "Earn more money now, and the children will have a better life in the future." ”
"Okay, then I'll teach you." Liu Xiaoshi put the half-woven basket next to him, picked up a bamboo silk again, and started teaching very patiently.
After studying it a few times, Li Haw finally made one, but she also had a few blisters on her hands because of this, and there were scratches in a few places, but there was no blood.
"Sister-in-law, do you make up anything else?"
"Yes, fans, cages, and a few others, I can't say for a while."
"This autumn is coming, and I'm afraid the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon."
"Well, there's still a little more than a month. What's the matter, suddenly asking this? ”
"Sister-in-law, let's take advantage of this month's time to make up more lanterns, and wait until a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, go to the town to sell, at that time I was doing advertising, so that others will buy our made!"
"Brother and sister, what is an advertisement?"
"It's just changing tricks to say that your own things are good, and fooling others to buy them."
"Brother and sister, this is not good, you must pay attention to honesty in business."
"Yes, yes." Li chirped and smiled, really liking Liu Xiao's simplicity, "By the way, sister-in-law, do you still make wreaths?" ”
"What is a wreath?"
"Strange, don't you have to send wreaths to the dead?" She continued, "It's a big circle made of bamboo, with paper flowers glued to it, and the dead are put on the grave." ”
"I haven't heard of this yet."
Li Chiao was shocked, so she is not the originator of the wreath manufacturing industry?
With such a vast market, isn't it all hers?
Hahaha!
Wreaths are made, advertisements are played, publicity is in place, money is earned, hey, bazaar, hey!
