Rebirth Craftsman

Chapter 41

Liu Xing looked at his mother and shook his head: "Mom, you are so happy to be like this, you are too unpromising!"

"Smelly boy, who do you say is not promising?" Mother Zhu Meiling couldn't help picking up a piece of sticks on the ground and drew it towards Liu Xing.

"Mom, how come you beat people up!" Seeing this, Liu Xing quickly greased the soles of his feet and ran out of the greenhouse: "I'm sleepy, go to the wonton shop and sleep first, no one should come to disturb me!"

He knew that his mother never really wanted to smoke him when he was happy, so he didn't hesitate to speak.

"I see, brat!" Zhu Meiling smiled and watched Liu Xing disappear into her sight.

...

Woke up at six o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Xing remembered that none of the basket samples of the grocery store boss Xue had been made yet. After telling his brother Liu Hang to look after his sister and the wonton shop, he got up and went to the greenhouse.

The greenhouse was very lively at this time. Uncle Si was standing in front of the log sawing platform and was sawing fir for several strange villagers. Looking at the length of about two meters, Ye Tian knew that these strange villagers saw fir for doors and windows.

It's just processing and sawing here.

Seeing this, Liu Xing shook his head: "Uncle Si, when you saw the fir, be careful that there are nails in it. Once the log saw saw nails or other hard materials, you won't be able to saw Nanzhu tomorrow."

"You are here!" Fourth Uncle Liu Huaqing turned his head and looked at Liu Xing happily: "These are from Datang Village. They only need to cut the Chinese fir into two meters in length. It's quite simple. Don't worry about it."

"By the way, they also paid out five yuan! Your dad has already collected it." Fourth Uncle added.

"If there is such a thing in the future, just refuse them!" Liu Xing looked at the nearly 100 firs on the ground, his expression a little ugly.

"Ah? Why? You don't make money if you have money?" The fourth uncle was confused.

"Do you know the power of this log saw in an hour?"

"Do you know how much it will cost to buy a new log saw blade if it is damaged?"

"Do you know that no other people can stand idle within five meters of the log saw?"

"Do you know how long it will take to saw this pile of fir in exchange for labor?"

Liu Xing asked four times in a row, and the fourth uncle who asked was speechless. The villagers in Datang Village who asked were confused, and they were embarrassed by the fact that they didn't know what to do.

Secretly, this kid is really refined.

Actually understand so much.

Seeing that no one answered, Liu Xing continued: "The power of a log saw can consume three kilowatt-hours of electricity per hour. According to the current electricity price, it is almost six cents. A log saw blade costs more than 400, although It is not broken for the time being, but there is wear and tear. Basically, it costs two to three dollars a day for wear and tear. These are actually not important, because the problem that money can solve is not a problem. The problem is that the log saw is a high-risk machine. Uncle, you let so many people stand by and watch the excitement. In case you hurt someone, will you lose money or I will lose money?"

The efficiency of log sawing is high, nearly ten times the work efficiency of ordinary people, and I don't know tiredness.

However, the consumption of parts and the cost of wear and tear are naturally not negligible.

This is the consciousness and basic operations that a craftsman should have. If you ignore it, you don't deserve to be a craftsman.

"I...I..." Fourth Uncle hesitated, speechless.

After Liu Xing said this, he knew how serious his problem was.

The processing fee for making these five yuan seems to be pretty good. It turns out that after deducting the electricity and wear costs, he has lost a lot!

Fortunately, Liu Xing reminded him early, otherwise his wages this month would have been lost.

"You all go and wait outside the greenhouse! Although I said nasty things, my father and my uncle promised to do what you did!" Liu Xing looked at several villagers in Datang Village and said coldly After a few sentences, he turned and left.

"Wait a minute." The wealthy villagers of Datang Village caught up with Liu Xing: "We had something wrong with the previous things. I sincerely apologize here, but you can't just drive us away like this."

"Then what else do you want to do?" Liu Xing frowned and looked at the wealthy Datang villagers who came after him.

"The log saw can not only cut the fir, but also cut the material. It is made into the kind of square material for doors and windows. Your uncle is a layman who can’t saw, but you should be, so I want to ask you a favor. These firs on the ground are sawn into square materials six centimeters thick and ten centimeters wide. Money is not a problem, as long as the materials are straight out!" the villager of Futai Datang Village said seriously.

"Are you a carpenter?" Liu Xing glanced at the villagers of Rich Datang Village.

"How do you know?" The villagers of Futai Datang Village were taken aback.

"It's not a carpenter, but I can't tell the previous professional term!" Liu Xing replied: "I can give you the materials for doors and windows, but I guess you are not willing to pay."

"If you don't tell me, how do you know that I am not willing to pay?" The villagers of Futai Datang Village smiled.

"Two-meter door squares cost one dollar to one square-meter window squares. As for processing panels, one square one yuan, would you like it?" Liu Xing thought about it and said the price.

This price was very high in 1993, but it is not too high.

Liu Xing's intention is to let these Datang villagers retreat when they are in trouble, and not to pay attention to his log saw.

It's not that he has money and doesn't make it, but now the main energy must be on making dustpans. Once the energy is scattered, I am afraid that no money will be made at that time.

Of course, if the villagers of Datang Village agree to the price he said, they can also continue this business. After all, it is very profitable. It is worthwhile to work overtime to get one at night.

Unexpectedly, the villagers of Futai Datang Village did not hesitate to agree to the price that Liu Xing said: "Hey! I thought you said how high the price is! That's the sentence, money is not a problem, as long as it is predictable. The quality is satisfactory to me."

"Really do not regret it?" Liu Xing asked.

It seems that he underestimated the villagers in Datang Village. There were even rich local tyrants in 1993, and he dared to say that money is not a problem.

"I'm sorry for this." A villager in Futai Datang Village touched his belly: "Tell you the truth! If these firs on the ground are cut into squares by carpenters, the cost may be cut from logs. Almost!"

"Indeed!" Liu Xing, who knows carpenter's craftsmanship, slowly nodded.

Before 1997, the planer was still a luxury machine for carpenters. It was only available in large wood processing factories or large construction sites. After all, the price of a planer was several thousand, and ordinary people could not buy it. Up.

And there are no sharp tools for processing wood such as planers and log saws. If you want to use the hands of a carpenter to make the doors and windows of a house, you don't need to think about the cost of the money.

The rich villagers of Datang Village seem to be stupid and have a lot of money, but he is actually smart!
