“Sister, regarding the lifetime guarantee, I just explained that, that’s the reason!
Let's put it this way, with the price of goods rising, one thousand yuan can now buy such a good set of furniture.
After ten years or so, you won’t even be able to buy wood for a thousand dollars!”
"Then what if they use it for three to five years and then come back?"
"Come back in three to five years?
It cannot be said that this situation does not exist, but even if it does exist, it is still in the minority!
After all, isn’t our furniture beautiful? Or not strong? Who has time to change furniture?
Therefore, most of the furniture that has been returned in the past three to five years is because the original furniture does not match the needs of a bigger house, so the furniture is returned and replaced with new ones!
If you say we give him a refund, will he continue to buy new furniture from us?"
"That……"
"Sister, you don't have to worry, I know it well!
Let's put it this way, it won't take three to five years, but next year, I won't sell such furniture for less than 1,500!
Therefore, as long as we work carefully and control the quality well, we will never lose money!
I opened this furniture store not just to make some money!
I want to treat it as a career, and I hope that our furniture store can become a century-old store like Liubiju, Neiliansheng, Tongrentang, and Rongbaozhai in Beijing!
Without this determination, why would you buy a house in Beijing?
Therefore, I don’t care whether you understand my idea or not. If you understand, you must implement it. If you don’t understand, you must do what I say!” Zhang Junping waved his hand and ended the argument forcefully.
This kind of ideological and cognitive differences makes it difficult for anyone to convince anyone.
At this time, Zhang Junping could only forcefully instill his ideas and thoughts.
Then let time prove everything.
"Okay, let's not discuss this matter anymore!
Elder brother-in-law, third brother, how do you see the drawings?
Is there anything you don’t understand?”
"I seem to understand, but I also don't seem to understand!" Fifth Brother spoke first.
"All right!
Let me tell you how to read drawings!
First look at the perspective drawing. Through the perspective drawing, you can first have an intuitive impression of the furniture you want to make!
Then look at the size!
The numbers marked on the one-point perspective drawing are the appearance dimensions of the furniture.
In addition, the circled numbers marked on the perspective diagram are serial numbers!
The corresponding structural breakdown diagram can be found through the serial number.
The structural breakdown diagram shows the style and size of each part of the furniture!" Zhang Junping picked up a piece of furniture drawing and explained how to read it.
"Pingzi, when you say this, we will understand!
We made the parts based on the dimensions on the... detailed structural drawings, and finally assembled them into the furniture in front of us. Is this what it looks like?"
"Yes! The detailed structural drawings show the individual parts of the furniture, such as table legs, table tops, drawers, etc. When they are assembled, a table is formed!"
"Oh! I understand. If you said this earlier, we would already understand. What kind of perspective diagrams, exploded diagrams, and legs and feet, tooth plates, tooth bars, panels, and foreign goods you made? How can we understand it!"
The third brother also looked complaining.
"Okay, this is my fault!
Let's get to work, shall we?
Get some workbenches first!"
"There are no nails!" Fifth Brother reminded in a low voice.
“You can’t make a workbench without nails?
You guys give me a hand, and I'll show you my skills so that you can see what our ancestors' mortise and tenon craftsmanship is!" Zhang Junping rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile.
"What? Pingzi, do you know how to do carpentry?" Zhang Junpeng asked curiously.
"These words are really fresh. We have been making trouble together for a long time. Do you think I am just talking about it?" Zhang Junping said with a smile.
Zhang Junping didn't explain much and went directly to the backyard.
"Put down the top ten-centimeter-thick board! I'll mark the line and you'll cut it. Is that okay?"
"no problem!"
The third brother and several others went up and took down the big board. This board was specially requested by Zhang Junping and was used to make a workbench.
Drawing lines is simple. Zhang Junping took a ruler and an ink fountain and the lines popped out in just a few strokes.
But sawing a ten-centimeter wooden board was not that simple, especially since they had no power tools and relied entirely on handwork. The sixteen legs required for the four workbenches were enough to keep them busy all morning.
After playing the thread, he asked his eldest brother-in-law and others to saw it first, and then Zhang Junping asked someone to set up a five-centimeter wooden board.
A five-centimeter wooden board is used as the panel of the workbench.
After playing the thread again, Zhang Junping also took out his saw and cut the material together with them.
At this time, Zhang Junping missed his set of hundreds of thousands of woodcraft power tools in his previous life.
Now let’s not talk about hundreds of thousands of woodworking power tools. Let’s start with Taiwanese electric planes and electric saws!
Zhang Junping has never been against electric tools. Like manual craftsmen, electric tools are just tools in the hands of craftsmen.
Later generations over-promoted the protection of intangible cultural heritage and the protection of traditional handicrafts.
Zhang Junping is very supportive, but protection does not mean being conservative.
There are some more radical people who believe that as long as power tools are used, it is not considered a traditional craft.
Zhang Junping was speechless at this argument.
Like now, when cutting materials, if you have a chainsaw, how much time can be saved.
It takes two people several hours to saw the legs of a workbench.
If you use a chainsaw, you can finish the job in a few minutes.
The saw came out straight.
Zhang Junping secretly set a small goal, that is, he must get a chainsaw in the short term.
If it doesn't work, just buy the parts and assemble one yourself.
All morning, eight people were busy cutting materials.
The yard was filled with the sound of saws and saws.
Although the furniture store is open, there is no plaque or anything.
The door was open, but the shop was empty, and passers-by had no idea what was being sold inside.
All morning, except for a group of people brought by Aunt Wang, no other customers came to the door.
Zhang Guiqin was a little anxious, and after a while she ran to the door and took a look outside.
"Pingzi, there's no one around this morning!" Zhang Guiqin couldn't help but muttered during lunch.
"Haha, eldest sister, the four sets of furniture in the morning were not enough for us?
According to the current progress, it will take a month to finish four sets of furniture!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.
"I'm not in a hurry!
You think there are so many of us, how much does it cost to eat, drink, and defecate a day?
How about I go to the countryside to collect some things and sell them in the store?"
"No! Stop it!
Sister, please don’t do that. We are not familiar with the place in Beijing. If something happens, we won’t be able to find anyone for help!
Besides, how much can we spend a month? Two hundred yuan is enough!
Just these four sets of furniture today will last us half a year!
So, eldest sister, just keep your mind at ease and stop worrying about it!" Zhang Junping was afraid that eldest sister would go into small business again, so he quickly gave up her idea.
Just as he was talking, someone outside the door shouted: "Master Xiao Zhang, is Master Xiao Zhang here?"
