84. Scholar looking for scumbags to borrow books

When she got home in the evening and her mother was alone in the house, Yang Juyun asked her in a low voice, "How did your sales of those things go today? Are they still selling well?"

Xiang Jin nodded and said, "Well, it's easy to sell. After a while, people came around without shouting. After giving them a demonstration for a while, I let them do it by themselves, and then there were customers one after another.

I came to buy it and it was almost sold out around 11 o'clock in the morning."

After hearing this, Yang Juyun couldn't help but said in surprise, "Really?"

Xiang Jin nodded again, "Yeah, but the money I received was directly deposited in the account you opened for me with your ID card last time. If you need anything then, just tell me.

I'll get it for you."

She is still a minor and does not even have an ID card, so naturally she cannot open an account or apply for a bank card in her own name. If she wants to have a bank card, she will have to get an adult's ID card.

It just works.

She thought that she was already so old, so she should save some private money of her own. Otherwise, it would not be a good idea to ask her mother for money for everything. It would be okay if her mother was around, but if her mother was not around, she would

Then there is something urgent that needs money urgently, what should she do?

She has always been relatively independent, especially financially, and has no habit of asking others for money, even her biological parents and grandparents.

Therefore, she still has to control the economic power by herself, so that she can control it however she wants, free!

So last time when she and her mother were rushing to the mall to withdraw money, she directly asked for her mother's ID card to apply for a bank card, and the password was set by herself.

Yang Juyun didn't ask her how much they sold today or how much she saved. Instead, she waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. You can just keep the money you make. No need."

Never mind me, I have money there!"

Naturally, Xiang Jin would not be polite to her, so she nodded in agreement. She thought that in the worst case, she would be short of money, so she would just give her some more, or think of another way to make money for her.

On the way back from town, she had already discussed with Yan Chen that they would divide the work and collaborate. Yan Chen would be mainly responsible for assembling the drill bit, while she would be responsible for the bamboo tube.

At the same time, she also told Yan Chen to try not to let people in the bay know that they were doing this business.

Yan Chen stared at her for a moment, then understood, "Okay!"

Early the next morning, Xiang Jin went to Huangyewan to chop down a bunch of bamboo poles to feed the cattle, and then went directly to the back hillside with the machete to chop bamboo.

In order not to trouble others every time, and in order not to attract the attention of people in the bay, Xiang Jin thought it was better to keep a low profile. The so-called making a big fortune in silence, although she is not making a big fortune, she is still making money.

, so this time she did not take the bamboo and go to the mountain to find Ai Chaoyun to cut the bamboo tube for her.

Instead, they took advantage of yesterday afternoon when they went to the hardware store to buy some additional accessories before coming back and bought another saw.

Anyway, this saw is used by her family. For example, her family saw firewood, her mother pruned the branches of mulberry trees every year, and cut down some dead trees on the slopes at the end of the year, etc.

Having one at your own home is more convenient than borrowing it every time you go to someone else's home.

At first, she was not very familiar with the use of this saw, and it was always easy to saw the bamboo tube with one side taller and the other shorter. Finally, her grandmother saw it and came over to give her some pointers before she mastered the trick.

But by that time, she had blisters all over her hands and heart.

Her grandmother felt a little distressed when she saw it, and then she directly helped her and sawed all the bamboos in one go.

Xiang Jin looked at her with a look of admiration and envy, "Grandma, are you so awesome?"

Her grandmother looked very proud and said, "That's right, your grandmother and I were also well-known female bamboo craftsmen here when we were young. We saw bamboo, cut bamboo, and cut bamboo into thin strips.

It won’t be difficult for me to weave them into dustpans, sieves, dustpans and the like!”

Xiang Jin said, "Grandma, you are so good at craftsmanship. You can make some things and sell them in the market. You will definitely make money."

Her grandmother waved her hands and sighed, "Well, in this era, which family doesn't know how to knit something? They all knit it by themselves, and there is no need to make it look good or bad, as long as it can be used.

, who is willing to spend money to buy it outside?"

On the contrary, at this time, people are still pursuing the most basic things in life. They would like to break every money in half to spend it, so how can they care about the spiritual level?

Things on the spiritual level only happened in the following decades when the Internet economy was very developed. People were constantly buying this and that online, and they also pursued environmental protection and health for the material things in life.

.

Therefore, bamboo weaving products at that time were very popular. A small item cost tens of yuan, and a prettier or more delicate item cost tens to hundreds, or even hundreds of yuan, because it was called pure

Handmade crafts.

After her grandma sawed a pile of bamboo tubes for her, she asked, "If there is anything else you need grandma to do, just tell me."

Xiang Jin shook his head, "No more for now, I will do the rest myself."

Her grandmother patted her clothes and said, "Okay, you can do it yourself, I'll go cook."

"Um!"

There were a lot of black ink outside, and they were all in bunches. They were small, poisonous, and biting very hard. After Xiang Jin drilled holes outside for a while, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he moved all the bamboo tubes to his own house.

Inside the house, she planned to close the door and get in.

But fortunately, they now have that drill. After turning on the power, it is still very fast, almost one or two minutes. By about three o'clock in the afternoon, she had drilled all the holes in the bamboo tubes, there were almost five or six hundred holes.

, but I have prepared everything I need the day after tomorrow.

The next step is to drive the nails into the bamboo holes, but this is faster, faster than drilling holes in bamboo tubes. Three or four can be installed in almost a minute.

So before her grandma made dinner in the afternoon, she had already installed the bamboo tubes, and then she took out some metal accessories and started assembling the drill bits.

When it was getting dark in the evening, Yan Chen asked her on the pretext that he came to borrow books from her and asked her if the bamboo tubes were ready. If not, he could bring some back to make some.

Xiang Jin joked, "Your excuse is a bit inappropriate. Who would believe a top student coming to borrow a book from a bad student?"

Yan Chen said, "Who said I am a top student? My grandparents wouldn't say that?"

Xiang Jin said, "People in Wan Tou are saying that they often saw you buying books when going to the market, saying that you love to study."

"If you love learning, does that mean you are a top student?" Yan Chen went against the grain.

Xiang Jin shook his head, "Of course not, maybe he just likes to read miscellaneous books, but I believe you should be a top student."

"What is the logic?"

"Because you are calm and smart. It is difficult for a person with a calm and smart personality to have bad grades!"

Yan Chen shook his head and laughed, but he did not deny the fact that his grades were indeed good. Instead, he asked, "Are you really a bad student?"

Xiang Jin was startled, then laughed, "Of course not, how could I be a scumbag?"

Yan Chen said, "That's alright. What's wrong with a top student coming to borrow books from a top student?"

Xiang Jin said, "But in the eyes of others, I am a scumbag. You should come to me with this name and say that you are here to give me tutoring. They will definitely believe it, and it will even be a matter of course."

Yan Chen teased, "You dare to say that, but I don't have the nerve to do that." He had not forgotten the scene in the car when she was quarreling with the classmate who was said to be the top three in their class. The look in her eyes

Chilling sarcasm and disdain.

Xiang Jin said, "What's the point? You really have good grades?"

"But I'm not good enough to give you a lecture yet!"

Xiang Jin glared at him, "Excuse, do you know the excuse?"

Yan Chen said, "Some reasons can be said casually, but some must be practical." Then he changed the topic, "Okay, let's get back to the topic, is there anything you need me to do?"

Xiang Jin shook his head, "Not for now. I have everything ready. What about you? Have you already finished all the materials?"

Yan Chen nodded, "Well, they're all done. There are about four hundred of them."

"Ah, so fast? Then you don't have to rush so much the day after tomorrow!"

"You can prepare for the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. If you can deliver it as early as possible, let's deliver it as early as possible. That can save some trouble."

"That's true. Soon our family will have to divide the grain parcels again! Then there won't be much space left." And this time the grain parcels won't be divided into two acres of land, but several acres of land.

She still had to break up with Lao Xiang's family. She really didn't want to break up with their family, but her mother just couldn't bear to part with the fruits of her own labor.

Then the two of them agreed on a departure time tomorrow.
