Chapter 642: Let's learn the craft
It wasn't until Xiao Xuxu had fun that Gao Mingcheng was able to get up, he lifted Xiao Xuxu with his hand, put it on his shoulder, and carried him downstairs.
When he went downstairs, the new clothes were already arranged, hanging on the wall, or stacked on the counter, and many people were wandering into the store, and many beautiful women were greeting customers.
Women are more keen on buying things than men, and most of the stores are women at this time, Gao Mingcheng didn't bother to go over to join in the fun, he carried Xiao Xuxu and prepared to go out for a walk.
He was going to go to the mall, there is a two-story shopping mall in the county, and the goods in the mall are dazzling, and all kinds of daily necessities can basically be found here.
As the largest shopping mall in the prefecture, there is a lot of traffic here, and most of the young people who are talking to people choose to come here if they want to go shopping.
Gao Mingcheng walked around the mall, and asked the person in charge of the mall if he could rent a counter.
Gao Mingcheng is going to rent a counter in the mall to sell the Xiaobawang game console.
There are not many styles of this thing, you don't need to find a door to sell, rent a counter in the mall, put game consoles on the counter, stack inventory under the counter, and the excess inventory can also be placed on the side of the new home, the new home covers a wide area, and the second and third floors are still empty.
Gao Mingcheng thought about everything in advance, but this time he just asked about renting the counter, and he didn't rent the counter immediately.
Because he still needs to go to Xiaobawang's factory to communicate and purchase goods first, and he has to choose the person who cares about the store in advance.
Xiaobawang game console, although it has begun to sell goods on the market, but they are just a small remote county here, there is no merchant selling it yet, according to the normal development situation, or Xiaobawang advertised on CCTV, people only knew that there was this thing, and after a while, someone in the county began to sell goods.
After walking around the mall and inquiring about the situation, Gao Mingcheng took Xiao Xuxu out of the mall, and when he entered, he was empty-handed, and when he came out, he already had a lot of snacks in his hands.
This is how to take a child out, you can't eat it, otherwise you have to do it, you have to do that.
Out of the mall, Gao Mingcheng decided to go to Maozi's side again.
Maozi's house started construction in April, first demolishing the old house, and then digging the ground to build a new house.
Before going to Yangcheng to buy goods, Maozi also came to him and said that the house was going to be ready to be built with beams and tiles.
The upper beam tile can not be casual, we must pay attention to the sense of ceremony, and choose a good day, because this house is funded by Gao Mingcheng, so Mao Zi hopes that on the day of the beam and tiles, Gao Mingcheng can also come to participate.
In this regard, Gao Mingcheng naturally agreed.
He hugged Xiao Xuxu and walked quickly all the way to Maozi's house, where the new house stood in the middle of the old houses, like standing out from the crowd, particularly conspicuous.
The current house has not yet been covered with beams and tiles, and the walls have not been painted, and it looks a little dusty, but compared with the dilapidated houses next to it, it seems to be full of life.
The first floor was empty except for a few load-bearing columns and a bathroom, and there were some fir trees piled up on the ground at this time, and some tiles.
Gao Mingcheng looked the situation of the house up and down, and saw that there was a carpenter with two apprentices in the house, measuring the size here.
After the beams are covered with tiles, it is necessary to make doors, windows, and furniture in the house. It's going to take another month.
"Brother Mingcheng, you're here!" Mao Zi walked down from the second floor, the stairs had already been installed, but the handrails had not yet been installed, and it looked a little unsafe.
Mao Zi was not afraid at all, he went downstairs quickly, and the whole person's mental outlook was also very good.
He walked quickly in front of Gao Mingcheng and said with a smile: "Brother Mingcheng, I have already seen the days, tomorrow, and the end of the month, are good days." What day do you think is the best choice? ”
Gao Mingcheng said: "Just tomorrow!" ”
It is better to build a house sooner rather than later, build it early, and open it early to make money. Gao Mingcheng's thinking is so unpretentious!
Mao Zi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll prepare the things, tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning, Brother Mingcheng, you just need to come over." ”
"Okay." After agreeing on this, Gao Mingcheng didn't stay long, and took Xiao Xuxu back to the clothing store.
Business seemed to be good this afternoon, and there were several fewer clothes hanging in the store, and Zhang Jinling was quickly ironing the folds on the new clothes, and then hanging them on the shelves.
Gao Mingcheng swept his eyes and didn't see Luo Li, it was not yet time to get off work, but Luo Li occasionally arrived late and left early, he didn't care.
As soon as she thought so, she saw Luo Li walking downstairs with her son in her arms.
It turned out that her son was hungry and was carried to the store by her mother-in-law, and then Luo Li took her son to the second floor to feed.
The little baby is already two months old, and at this time he is full of food and drink, and he looks around with his small eyes open.
Gao Mingcheng put Xiao Xuxu down, then walked over and said, "I'll hug you." ”
Gao Mingcheng took the child from Luo Li's hand, looked down at the child's appearance, a two-month-old baby, his facial features gradually grew a little, but his eyes were small, his nose was flattened, and his small mouth occasionally spat and bubbled.
Gao Mingcheng stared at it for a long time, only to find that although the baby's eyes were small, they were double eyelids!
It's just an inner double! So if you don't look closely, you think it's a single eyelid.
Gao Mingcheng teased the child, and when he saw that the child was chirping and looking like he wanted to cry, he hurriedly returned the child to Luo Li, and the speed was like throwing a grenade!
Fortunately, after the child returned to the mother's arms, it was no longer chirping.
"Luo Li, it's almost five o'clock, you take the child back first!" Gao Mingcheng said that the store usually commutes from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., but sometimes the time is flexible, and it can be appropriate to be early and late.
Luo Li looked grateful, but did not rush to leave, but said: "It's still early, it's okay if I stay for a while, now it's my mother-in-law cooking, and I have nothing to do when I go back." ”
Luo Li didn't care if she stayed or not, and Gao Mingcheng didn't care, but ten minutes later, Huang Dazhi and Lou Xinyu walked over together.
Seeing Gao Mingcheng, Huang Dazhi's eyes lit up, and he greeted with a smile: "Mingcheng!" ”
Lou Xinyu also obediently shouted: "Second brother." ”
Huang Dazhi had something to tell Gao Mingcheng, so the two went to the side, and Lou Xinyu went to Gao Shufang, and the two discussed what to eat tonight.
"Mingcheng, I want to find something for Xiao An to do, do you have any suggestions?" Huang Dazhi asked, staring at Gao Mingcheng with blank eyes.
In his mind, Gao Mingcheng is a person with a lot of ideas, and listening to him is right.
Huang Dazhi's younger brother Huang Xiao'an, because he had polio since he was a child, was not treated in time, and his body was left with a relatively serious disability.
However, after Huang Dazhi had money in his hand, he took Huang Xiaoan to the provincial capital for surgery, and after the operation, Huang Xiaoan recovered well, at least he had been successfully orthopedic, and the whole person looked normal.
But if you look closely, you can still see that he is different from ordinary people, and he is short, so he doesn't look very strong.
Now listening to Huang Dazhi's question, Gao Mingcheng suggested that Huang Xiaoan could do some small business, or he could also show him the store.
Gao Mingcheng told that he was going to rent a counter in a shopping mall and then use it to sell Xiaobawang game consoles.
Gao Mingcheng said: "The work is also easy, as long as you go to the counter every day to sell goods, what do you think?" ”
Huang Dazhi knew that Gao Mingcheng was taking care of himself when he said this, and he was very grateful in his heart, but he still refused this kindness.
He was a little embarrassed and said, "Xiao An...... He had some low self-esteem, and after living in the county, he stayed at home all day and refused to go out. My house is on the side of the road, and I thought about building a small shed in front of the door, selling watermelons in the summer, and then selling cigarettes and lighters by the way. ”
Gao Mingcheng nodded, thinking that this idea was not bad.
The people of Gaojia Village will grow watermelons, and the people of Junling will also grow watermelons, and they can pull a cart of watermelons from Junling and sell them at a high price.
Cigarettes and lighters also have a long shelf life, so it's okay to sell them slowly.
Huang Dazhi sighed and said, "But Xiao An refuses, he doesn't want to deal with people, and he doesn't dare to deal with people." I think he has lived in the county since he lived, and he has become even more withdrawn and silent than when he was in Junling! ”
When he was in Junling, he met acquaintances from the same village, even if Huang Xiaoan was disabled and felt inferior, he could still communicate with people normally, but when he arrived in the county, he was surrounded by strangers he didn't know, and every time others saw him, his face would show sympathy or disgust, which made Huang Xiaoan feel very sad.
Over time, he became reluctant to communicate with others.
This business is the most taboo saw-mouth gourd!
To do business, you need to pay attention to an outgoing personality, a lotus tongue, you can chat with anyone, and you also need a certain cultural background, so that the words you say are beautiful and beautiful.
Gao Mingcheng learned that Huang Xiaoan was unwilling to communicate with others, and immediately said: "Then send him to learn a craft!" ”
Craftsmen eat by their skills, as long as their skills are good, even if they are disabled and not good at speaking.
Huang Dazhi nodded, he had also thought about sending his younger brother Huang Xiaoan to learn a craft.
But he didn't think about learning anything.
So he looked at Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng casually said a few, some learn cooking, and some learn carving.
Huang Dazhi felt that his younger brother had no talent for cooking, and it could even be said that their family did not have much talent for cooking, and the cooked food was not very delicious, but it could be eaten.
So he ignored the first option and focused on the second.
"Engraving? Who do you learn this from? How to make money? Huang Dazhi asked.
Gao Mingcheng mentions engraving for a reason.
They here, in fact, have a carving culture heritage, there are a few famous carving masters, carved out of the root tea table, tree root ornaments, is still relatively well-known.
In later generations, the county even opened a sculpture museum.
Since Huang Xiaoan doesn't want to communicate with others, he can sink down and learn carving, and he can rely on carving to eat rice in the future.
Gao Mingcheng said: "On the road near the city in our county, there is a village called Heshan Village, where there is a carving master, whose ancestors got the inheritance from the city, and it has been one or two hundred years now. ”
The reason why Gao Mingcheng knew about this was that he had collected old things for a while before, and he was not willing to go farther away to toss, so he ploughed around the vicinity of the county, although he didn't get many good things, but he also picked up the cheap of the times and saved some valuable antiques.
Huang Dazhi pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back and ask Xiao An first, if Xiao An is willing, I will take him to Heshan Village to learn art." ”
Gao Mingcheng knew that the man was a more famous carver, and he also knew that the man was soft-hearted, and often carved some gadgets for the children in the village to play.
Because of this, he is now relatively poor, mainly living on farming.
Gao Mingcheng roughly explained the other party's situation, and said that he could go to find someone first, and then sell it appropriately, and after impressing the other party, he would take Huang Xiaoan over to learn from him, so that it would be smoother.
In fact, Huang Dazhi also understands these things. He just didn't know how to arrange his younger brother for a while, and he didn't know where to find someone to learn art.
Now that Gao Mingcheng has given him an idea, he knows it.
In the past few years in the police station, he is well versed in the way of dealing with people.
Huang Dazhi nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go back and ask Xiao An first, if he has no opinion, I'll go to the carving master to talk." ”
After the matter was finished, Huang Dazhi thanked Gao Mingcheng again, and then hugged his baby son and took his wife home.
When he returned home, he could see some building materials piled up in his yard.
These materials are used to build sheds.
Huang Dazhi had suggested building a shed in front of the door and selling some cigarettes and fruits, but Huang Xiaoan refused.
But his parents are willing!
After Huang Dazhi's parents came to live in the county, they felt that they were finally happy.
In the first few days when they arrived in the county, they didn't do anything, they went shopping on the streets every day, and in just a few days, they were familiar with the streets and alleys of the county.
By now, the novelty of living in the prefecture has gradually disappeared, and it seems a little boring to do nothing every day.
Although they are not in good health and are unwilling to do farm work anymore, they are really idle after a lifetime of work.
So Huang Dazhi's parents decided to build a shed at the door and start a small business.
In this regard, Huang Dazhi naturally agrees.
The family has his and Luo Li's salaries, and they can also support the family, but if there is no extra money, then life is still tight.
Now his parents are willing to do business, and he doesn't want to make much money, so it would be good if he could let his parents pass the time and earn a little more.
When he returned home, Huang Dazhi went to find his younger brother Huang Xiaoan.
Huang Xiaoan, like his parents, lives on the first floor, his room faces west, and at this time, the light of the setting sun is pouring into the house through the open window, illuminating the room very brightly.
Huang Xiaoan was lying on the table writing.
These days, he refused to go out, so Huang Dazhi simply let him write at home, writing the simplest commonly used words, after writing more and practicing more, Huang Xiaoan can be regarded as able to recognize some words.
Seeing that Huang Xiaoan had finished writing a page, Huang Dazhi opened his mouth and said, "Xiaoan, how about I send you to learn carving?" ”
Huang Xiaoan's body stiffened, then he turned to look at his brother, and asked with some vigilance, "What is carving?" ”
He was afraid that his brother would send him to an environment that he couldn't handle, so he was wary. (End of chapter)
