Rebirth Craftsman

No words for a night.

At a quarter past six in the morning, just before the dawn, Liu Xing was awakened by a knock on the door: "Son, don't sleep, get up quickly, someone over there is looking for you to discuss business."

"Who? So early?" Liu Xing got up out of bed reluctantly when he heard the words. He really didn't understand. Even if he was doing business, couldn't his father come forward?Why have to wait for him to go.

In doubt, he and his mother came to the greenhouse.

The person who called him to talk about business was a young woman in a red dress, with eyebrows and phoenix eyes, tall, holding a black handbag in her hand, and her temperament was extraordinary.

Liu Xing stared blankly, then walked over: "What business are you looking for with me?"

"You're a stick product workshop, of course it's a stick product!" The young woman in red smiled and glanced at Liu Xing: "Why... isn't it welcome?"

"Haha...no!" Liu Xing sneered, and brought the young woman in red to the table by the window.

After sitting down, he asked, "I don't know what stick products you need?"

"Bamboo mats made of bamboo are also called'mats' in the native dialect!" the young woman in red replied.

"Bamboo mat?" Liu Xing frowned upon hearing the words: "The kind of bamboo mat used on the bed?"

"Yes, I opened a department store in the city, and recently I got froze with the vendor who supplies bamboo mats, so I came to you!" The young woman in red sat opposite Liu Xing, "I don't know if you are interested. Take this long-term order."

"As far as I know, there are many types of bamboo mats, and the price is very low!" Liu Xing frowned and replied: "If you want to do business with me, I'm afraid you will be disappointed, at least in terms of price. "

The process of making bamboo mats is very complicated. It is generally made of bamboos such as water bamboo, moso bamboo, oil bamboo and so on, and the bamboo skin is split into strips, which are woven by manual warp and weft after cooking and soaking.

According to different materials, bamboo mats can be divided into green mats, yellow mats, flower mats and dyed strip flower mats.

The green mats are all woven from green mats, and the yellow mats are all woven with yellow strips. The flower mats are blue and yellow and have a bright color. The dyed mats dye the bamboo mats into various colors and weave patterns, which are generally used for decoration. .

Before his rebirth, Liu Xing knew that a bamboo mat had appeared on the market. It was made of moso bamboo and two-finger-wide bamboo blocks made of nylon string.This kind of bamboo mat is strong and durable, suitable for Simmons soft bed, but it should not appear now.

And the most important point is that the bamboo mat has been around for more than a thousand years, and many people can make it. There is no technology at all, and there is no technicality. If you want to make money, it is difficult to make money.

How did the young woman in red know what Liu Xing was thinking? She said, "It may not be disappointed. I am interested in quality. As long as your goods are good, money is not a problem. Although the bamboo mats sold to me by the vendors are all handmade , But the quality is so bad that my department store can't sell it at a price, and I often get complaints!"

"The bamboo mats are all handmade?" Liu Xing was taken aback when he heard the words, then his eyes brightened.

He has forgotten that it is 1993, and all kinds of small processing workshops have not yet emerged in major cities, that is, there are, and it is estimated that they are also in the developed coastal areas. In other words, if bamboo mats are to be mass-produced, it is difficult to maintain quality and quantity. Very high.

In his memory, there are many types of bamboo mats, such as those used on bed, sofa, desk, etc., etc., but they are inseparable. The hot sales period is only a few months in summer. When it’s cold, they won’t be able to sell. After all, bamboo products have one characteristic, that is, coolness.

This cool feeling is crooked in summer, but not in winter.

It is summer, and it is estimated that the bamboo mats of the young woman in red are selling well, so I found him early in the morning.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing said to the young woman in red: "Tell you the truth! Although this bamboo mat is a kind of bamboo mat, I have never made it before! So don't have too much confidence in me. "

"No! Your dustpan craftsmanship has given me a lot of confidence, I believe in your craftsmanship!" The young woman in red smiled and looked at Liu Xing: "I will tell you the truth too! It was Zhang Xiaoying who introduced me to you. here."

"Zhang Xiaoying? Sister Zhang?" Liu Xing was taken aback when he heard the words, and then asked aloud: "Where is she now? I can't even see her!"

"In Banqiao Town, there are important things that must be handled personally!" the young woman in red replied.

"Okay!" Liu Xing sneered and stopped asking.

He knew that even if he asked, he probably couldn't ask anything.

"My department store needs bamboo mats. The quantity is very large. I need at least one thousand per month. Can you take this order?" The young woman in red started talking about the topic, and immediately got into the topic.

"What kind of bamboo mat do you need?" Liu Xing did not directly agree, but asked for some details.

"It's the kind with a bed cushion! The size is one meter and five meters wide, one meter wide, and one meter two meters wide. As for the length, they are all two meters!" the young woman in red replied.

Seeing Liu Xing frowned, she added: "If you feel unsure, I'll go back and ask someone to send you some samples, but the quality of the bamboo mats you produce can't be perfunctory, at least better than the samples. "

"I'm not unsure, I just want to ask more clearly!" Liu Xinglian explained.

As long as the bamboo mat has a planer and a breaker, it is very simple for him.Of course, if you want mass production, you have to use other gadgets.

"Then this month, let me make one thousand five-meter bamboo mats and one thousand one-meter eight bamboo mats. This is a deposit!" The young woman in red took out a stack of hundred yuan bills and placed it on the dining table.

"It's not that I haven't told you how much a bamboo mat is? Are you so anxious to pay my deposit?" Liu Xing smiled bitterly, and didn't know what to say for a while, the young woman in red in front of her. The character is really bold.

"Set the price according to the price I bought from the vendor before! What's the point!" the young woman in red replied.

"Tell me!" Liu Xing took the tea from his mother and poured a cup of hot tea into the cup in front of the young woman in red.

"One meter is eight yuan wide, and one meter five is six yuan. The price should be right for you!" The young woman in red took out a stack of receipts from her black handbag: "Take a look for yourself. These are the receipts I used to buy bamboo mats."

"Don't look at it, the price is low!" Liu Xing shook his head and replied.

"Then how much do you want?" The young woman in red was not angry, but looked at Liu Xing with a smile.

"Will I not take this order?" Liu Xing thought for a while, and finally said what was in his heart.

The making of bamboo mats is simpler than that of baskets, but it is not very simple. Now his breakfast shop is about to open. There are still many dustpans on the side of Zhang Jie who have not been delivered, and I picked up another thousand yesterday. If he accepts the order for bamboo mats, he will be too busy with his three heads and six arms.

Therefore, it must be rejected.

people.

The key lies in knowing yourself.

This can be done as much as possible.

This is the precious experience he has summed up in the decades since his rebirth.

However, the young woman in red did not agree at all. She seemed to be angry: "Liu Xing, I was introduced by Zhang Xiaoying. If you don't give me a little face, can't you give Zhang Xiaoying a little face?"
