I've brought you customers!" Aunt Wang's loud voice echoed directly from the front shop to the back yard.
"Come on, come on!
Good morning, Aunt Wang! Have you eaten?" Zhang Junping hurriedly stood up and went out to greet her.
"have eaten!
Master Zhang, have you eaten?
I know you are opening today, so I brought many old sisters here to support you!"
"I just finished eating, thank you Aunt Wang!
Anyone who comes with Aunt Wang today will get a 10% discount!"
"Hahaha! Let me tell you, Master Zhang is a college student and he is very particular about things!" Aunt Wang laughed happily and turned to the old sisters who came with her.
"Yes! Master Xiao Zhang is so particular!"
“Be particular about people!”
Several aunts were very happy when they heard Zhang Junping promised a discount, and they all praised him.
Zhang Junping is also very happy. As soon as the furniture store opened, customers came to the store.
"Aunt Wang, and other aunties, my furniture store has just opened and nothing has been decorated yet!
This is the furniture drawing I asked someone to draw. For the time being, you can only choose furniture through the drawing!
You can take a look at it first, or you can wait for a while until I have finished samples and then make your selections!" Zhang Junping asked for the renderings back and handed them to several aunts for them to choose.
"Ouch! Is this a painting? At first glance, I thought it was a photo!
The painting is so beautiful!”
“I’ve never seen this furniture before, but it’s so beautiful!”
"Master Zhang, can you make the furniture in this painting?"
"Aunt Wang, you know, I am a college student from Central America. If I can't do it, do I dare to do it?
I'm not afraid of ruining my reputation, but I'm also afraid of ruining the school's reputation!" Zhang Junping cleverly linked himself with CAFA.
In this era, Central America is definitely a golden brand and trustworthy.
"That's right, let me tell you, Master Zhang is a top student at Central Academy of Fine Arts, a future artist with a bright future!
If you can’t make it, how dare you draw it?
Doesn’t that delay someone’s future?
How much money you spent on buying furniture is more valuable than someone else's future?" Aunt Wang was standing next to her, praising Zhang Junping.
“For the furniture I designed, I have to thank Aunt Wang!”
"Master Zhang, why are you thanking me for what you said? I didn't do anything to help you!"
"Aunt Wang, if you hadn't asked me to repair furniture at home, I wouldn't have known Brother Wang!
Brother Wang would never ask me to repair ancient furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties!
My furniture is designed by studying the craftsmanship of ancient furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and then combining it with what we modern people have!
The furniture you see, except for the sofa and Simmons spring bed, does not use a single nail, but uses old craftsmanship passed down by our ancestors!"
"Master Zhang is so awesome!" Aunt Wang had only a limited understanding of the traditional craftsmanship and modern aesthetics that Zhang Junping was talking about, but it sounded pretty awesome anyway.
"It's amazing. You can make such a big piece of furniture without a single nail. What a great skill!" Several other aunties also nodded. Isn't it amazing that you can make furniture without using nails?
How many nails will this save the country? How much steel will be saved?
The account cannot be calculated carefully. The nails saved on this piece of furniture are not many, but what about a hundred pieces, a thousand pieces, or ten thousand pieces?
If you buy such furniture, isn't it equivalent to contributing to the country's four modernizations?
"Can this furniture be strong without nails?" Someone finally asked and expressed their worries.
"Auntie, you should have elderly furniture at home, right? Those elderly furniture don't use nails. How many years have you been using them?
If you go to the Forbidden City and take a look, many of the furniture there are hundreds of years old and they are still strong!
Let’s put it this way, whether the furniture is strong or not has nothing to do with whether nails are used or not. It depends on the materials used and the craftsmanship!
As long as the materials are good and the craftsmanship is good, you can use it for a lifetime!"
"That's the truth!"
"What materials does Master Zhang use?"
"Northeastern red pine! They are all displayed in the yard. They were just brought back from Guanghua Timber Factory yesterday!"
Zhang Junping's words finally aroused the desire of many aunts to buy, and they all asked about the price.
"Then how much does this set of furniture cost you?"
The set of furniture you are holding costs 1,200 yuan! It includes a bed, a set of four-door cabinets, a chest of drawers, a dressing table and chairs, a double sofa, and two singles.
A sofa, a long coffee table, and a small coffee table.
"How much does this sofa cost?" Another aunt asked, pointing to a set of sofas.
"The sofa set you are looking at is called a fabric sofa. It costs three hundred and twenty yuan for a set. It has a double sofa, two single sofas, a long coffee table, and a small coffee table.
The double sofa can be pulled out and used as a bed!”
"So expensive?"
"Auntie, you get what you pay for. I'm not bragging. You can't buy such good furniture as I do in Beijing! And I also promise you a lifetime warranty and a lifetime guarantee!"
"Lifetime warranty? What does that mean?"
"That is to say, if you buy my furniture and there is a problem, we will be responsible for repairing it for you. If the repair cannot be done, we will give you a full refund!
Even if you use the furniture for ten or twenty years and don’t like it anymore, if you take it back, I will still give you a full refund!”
Zhang Guiqin was listening nearby, her face turned pale, she reached out and tugged on Zhang Junping's clothes, and thought to herself: "Little ancestor, please stop talking, how can you do this kind of business? After ten or twenty years, you will pay me back"
If they offer a full refund, why don’t you pay to your death?
Zhang Junping glanced at the eldest sister and gave her a reassuring look.
"Master Zhang, is this a joke? Are you willing to die?" Aunt Wang said what she wanted to say for Zhang Guiqin.
"Aunt Wang, I'm not joking! What I just promised will be written on paper and handed over to every customer who buys furniture as a letter of commitment!
As for, will I lose money?
You don’t have to worry about this!
Don’t forget, I am a wood artist. The furniture that you don’t like can become more fashionable furniture with just a little fiddling with it in my hands!
It’s just something I put a little effort into, it’s nothing!
This can be considered serving the people!"
“Then Kungfu also costs money!”
"Auntie, you have forgotten one thing. Think about it, how much have our prices increased in the past few years of reform and opening up?
Now you spend 1,200 yuan to buy a set of furniture. Ten years later, it may become 2,000 yuan, 3,000 yuan, or even more!
You return a set of furniture to me at its original price of one thousand two thousand. I dismantle it, reprocess it, and turn it into new furniture. If you sell it at that time, it won’t be one thousand two thousand, but maybe two thousand or three thousand.
Even higher!" Zhang Junping explained with a smile.
There is another sentence he didn't say. Now, this set of furniture cost one thousand twenty dollars. Ten years from now, one thousand twenty dollars won't even buy the wood.
"Then you take back the old furniture, renovate it and then sell it, isn't that fooling people?" an aunt asked sharply.
“Auntie, this house is old and new, but is the wood old or new?
As long as the wood doesn’t rot or rot, it’s good wood!”
