Chapter 436 When I grow up, I should have my own ideas
Song Tuanyuan was worried, but he was unwilling to speak out directly to attack Song Fugui.
Song Fugui was cowardly before, and the original owner's words were a huge order for him. He said the same thing, which is why it led to such a tragedy. Now Song Fugui has his own ideas. Although it goes against Song Tuanyuan's original intention of returning to Qingshan Town,
Song Tuanyuan didn't say much and just followed Song Fugui.
Song Fugui rented a small shop by the front door. It was not a medicine shop, but a grocery store. It mainly sold bamboo products. There was also a backyard. Jia Qi and others had bamboo repairers and bamboo weavers, and it was a lively scene.
"What are you..." Song Tuanyuan was stunned, but she didn't expect that Song Fugui would give up medicinal materials to make this kind of bamboo weaving.
"How did you come up with the idea of doing this?" Song Tuanyuan asked again.
Song Fugui rubbed his head and laughed: "In the past, at home, I went up the mountain to collect medicinal materials. The Chinese medicinal materials, including the place where they were sold, were all found by my mother for me. I know that in Tiancheng, there are a lot of big medicine shops.
We only have these few people, how can we follow others?
For example, that day I was walking on the road and saw a small bamboo bench that a dignitary was looking for. But after asking several grocery stores, they didn’t have it, so I immediately stepped forward and said that I could make it and arranged for delivery.
I made one for him and made thirty cash!"
"Mom, think about it, a small bench can be made in just an hour. There are all these bamboos on the mountain. If you add artificial shops and so on, you can earn ten cash for one, and you can sell dozens of them a day, which is hundreds of cash. This
It’s just an input. From now on, I can sell these tree stumps, tables, stools, and pots and pans. Brothers like Jia Qi, some of them purchase goods, some deliver goods, and some of them weave bamboo. They can’t go wrong with the business!" Song Fugui laughed.
.
Song Tuanyuan was a little relieved. Although this was a small business, at least it was Song Fugui's own idea. Before doing this, he also fully considered his own advantages and disadvantages, and he could still provide a meal for the brothers from Qingshan Town.
"You can do whatever you want, and it just so happens that the Ji family is no longer willing to do groceries. Several stores will be closed during this period. It's just the right time for you to open this store!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Ji Changan had said before that the grocery store business was too trivial and not as profitable as other stores. Several stores had been closed recently, but now it was an opportunity for Song Fugui.
When Song Fugui heard this, he was very happy.
Song Tuanyuan went in and walked around, then said, "I can add a few more tricks to you. When you ask Jia Qi and the others to cut bamboo, they can also cut down some small trees as thick as copper coins!"
"What do you want the little tree to do?" Song Fugui asked.
"You'll know when you cut it back!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Song Fugui nodded.
"By the way, if there are beehives, touch a few of them. People in this city are curious about things in the mountains!" Song Tuanyuan said again.
Song Fugui quickly responded, then looked at Song Tuanyuan and asked, "Don't you object to me opening this shop?"
Song Tuanyuan shook his head: "When you grow up, you should have your own ideas. Maybe I have been a little disappointed for a while, thinking that you don't listen to me, but you still have to walk the road in the future, and I can't help you.
You took too long!"
Song Fugui pursed his lips and whispered, "Mom, I really like this Tiancheng, and I want to stay here!"
Song Tuanyuan reached out and patted Song Fugui on the shoulder: "You can stay here if you want. You can fight on your own. Are you willing?"
Song Fugui nodded: "Mom, don't worry, I will work hard. Things like this will never happen again!"
Song Tuanyuan nodded, this can be regarded as a lesson learned!
After coming out of the grocery store, Song Tuanyuan went to the cloth store next door and agreed with them to send the remaining cotton strips to the Song family grocery store. Then he went to a blacksmith's shop and brought back some wire.
In the afternoon, the small tree was cut down, and Song Tuanyuan taught Jia Qi and others how to make mops.
"This city is not like the countryside. It is paved with bluestones. When cleaning, you have to kneel on the ground and wipe. With this mop, it is much easier!" Song Tuanyuan said, soaking the mop in the water, and waiting for the mop to absorb it.
Then he stepped on the water slightly and squeezed it a little with the soles of his feet, and then tried dragging the corridor to demonstrate to Song Fugui.
When Song Fugui saw it, he immediately said: "Mom, this thing is really easy to use!"
"It's best to make a dehydrated one. There is a pedal here and a wheel on the side to turn it!" Song Tuanyuan gestured.
"Jia Liu, come here!" Song Fugui quickly called a skinny man forward, "Mom, this is Jia Liu, Jia Qi's sixth brother. He used to be a carpenter. He can do all kinds of carpentry work. He can do all kinds of things in my grocery store.
All the carpentry belongs to him!”
Song Tuanyuan also explained the principle to him. Jia Liu was smart and understood it immediately. He said that a sample would be produced tomorrow for him to take a look at.
Song Tuanyuan then told Song Fugui some daily necessities that are commonly used in modern times. The more Song Fugui listened, the more excited he became, his face full of longing and hope for the future.
Seeing Song Fugui like this, Song Tuanyuan felt much better after having been suppressed for several days, and helped Song Fugui busy in the grocery store for a long time.
On the second day, the mop set launched by Song Fugui immediately attracted many people to watch the excitement, but the sales were average.
One person can only make three of these mops in half a day. Including wires and the like, each one costs a few cents. Song Fugui sells it for thirty cents, which is indeed not expensive, but this kind of mop is generally only used by rich people.
Ordinary people's homes are all covered with mud, and they can't afford thirty cents to sweep the floor.
"So it's you who stole my business!" At this moment, a person walked out of the crowd, it was Ji Changan, looking at Song Fugui with a smile.
Song Fugui quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Mr. Ji, my mother said that you don't plan to do groceries anymore, so I..."
Ji Changan stretched his neck and looked in: "Then ask your mother to speak out!"
Song Fugui quickly walked in and called Song Tuanyuan out.
Song Tuanyuan did not expect Ji Changan to come back and invited him in.
"What is this?" Ji Changan asked, looking at the mop in Song Fugui's hand.
Song Fugui quickly demonstrated.
Ji Changan nodded: "It looks good. You don't have to kneel on the ground to wipe the floor. With this mopping, the entire area will be covered in a while. It is very practical. However, your store is open at the front door, and there are many poor people here.
I don’t really need this!”
Song Fugui nodded: "I only had so much money at that time, which was just enough to rent this place, so..."
"Come with me!" Ji Changan stood up.
Song Fugui hurriedly followed, but Song Tuanyuan stood still.
Ji Changan turned back and glanced at Song Tuanyuan: "You won't follow?"
Song Tuanyuan had no choice but to keep up!
Ji Changan took Song Fugui to the east gate, where dignitaries lived.
