Chapter 397 Traditional craftsmanship, carry forward
In addition, there are some gadgets in other places, all of which are very vividly carved.
The wooden house covers an area of more than 300 square meters, and the six zodiac animals occupy half of it.
On one side is the carpenter's work area, with various carving knives, wooden tools, etc. placed.
Xiaohao explained that everyone is still out scavenging and will not come back until night.
However, because she was afraid that someone would deliberately come to cause trouble, people would stand guard here every day after Jiang Yuan ordered this batch of handicrafts.
"Lady boss, last time you said that in addition to the twelve zodiac signs, you also want to make ancient mythical beasts, green dragon, white tiger, red bird, Xuanwu..."
Xiaohao opened the straw mat and let Jiang Yuan inspect it.
I couldn't help but ask, is it true that there are so many custom-made wooden statues of ancient mythical beasts?
"That's right, but the product I need is a bit complicated. It's not just for viewing, it must have certain functionality, and I also need some small exquisite ornaments..."
Xiaohao nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
No matter what the request is, they can meet it.
As long as you can earn points and fill your stomach, anything will work.
Seeing Xiaohao's expression, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
What a simple and honest person. If in her time, when discussing cooperation, both parties would be very arrogant. They were afraid that the other party would take advantage of them, so they would definitely try their best to negotiate terms.
But now, they are trying their best to meet all her requirements.
It's pretty good, at least it's effortless to talk about.
But now that I'm alone, I can't explain it.
Jiang Yuan made an agreement with him that in the evening, her uncle would take all the carpenters to the grocery store to hold a meeting to determine the crafts to be made.
Xiaohao nodded hurriedly.
After that, Jiang Yuan walked around the neighborhood twice. Every house had their doors closed tightly, and she couldn't see anything.
"What is the boss lady looking for?"
Liu Zhi and the others followed them out, but it seemed to be of no use.
After observing for a long time, I couldn't help but speak now.
"Just look at how many idle people there are in every house on this street."
But everyone was very wary, and she was stunned not to see any of them.
As far as she understood, everyone who could move had gone out to scavenge, but there were also children and women who could not work staying at home.
Liu Zhi shut himself up after asking.
He couldn't help with this matter.
Forget it, if I knock on the door now, I'm afraid I'll be beaten out too.
Let’s wait until after the meeting in the evening.
Following Jiang Yuan, they took them back to the grocery store.
Liu Zhi and the other three brothers who were hospitalized went back because Li Lei was back and they had to go back quickly to follow the treatment.
Because she had a meeting in the evening, Jiang Yuan simply opened a fire in the grocery store and cooked a dinner.
Zhang Wu and Wang Yao, the names of those two brothers.
They were very happy.
He even used his own private money to buy some ingredients from the grocery store and gave them to Jiang Yuan.
If you want to have a hearty meal, of course you have to provide your own food.
It’s just that the ingredients here are limited.
There was a little grass left in the kitchen, so she made two pieces of meat to make soup, and then a pot of bacon and red bean stew with rice.
Such a simple meal was delicious for both of them.
After the meal, the two of them cleaned up the kitchen, and Jiang Yuan kept accounts.
The points earned from going to the auction house must be recorded, as well as the sales records of the past few days.
Although I earned more than a hundred points this time, the crafts were too cheap to sell.
It takes several days to carve the six zodiac animals, and so many people are involved.
According to the calculations of her time, this was a complete loss-making transaction.
If Jiang Yuan included her own travel expenses and food expenses to the safe zone, the trip would only cost a few dozen.
But next time she doesn't plan to go to town with just six zodiac signs.
After going around in a circle, she also found some business opportunities.
Maybe you can get some other livelihood besides scavenging for people on the 6th.
Thinking of this, she opened her watch, searched for some ancient pictures and information, downloaded and saved them first.
This busy work lasted more than an hour.
Until a group of people including Xiao Hao and Uncle Yan arrived.
They had another load of stuff. This time Jiang Yuan didn't need to explain it. She opened the warehouse door and started moving it.
Only about twenty minutes.
After everything was done, everyone gathered around the door of the grocery store for a meeting.
The conditions are simple, but as long as you can talk things through.
"Boss lady, can you tell us directly what kind of functional wood carving you want?"
Everyone was grinning, as if they saw hope of living.
So even if I have been tired for a day, I feel energetic now.
Jiang Yuan stopped talking nonsense and directly showed the pictures she downloaded.
There were countless ferocious beasts and mythical beasts in ancient mythology, so she chose a few that were most familiar to everyone.
According to the body structure of each ferocious beast, different functions can be modified.
In addition to household items, Jiang Yuan also wants to improve their practicality.
For example, if the four mythical beasts are placed in front of your house, you can install surveillance cameras and create simple mechanisms, such as sharp arrows, smoke bombs, and even small bombs.
The starting mechanism is placed in the owner's home.
Because most of the safe areas are apartments, the size of the mythical beasts does not need to be too large.
But the design of this mechanism stumped everyone.
But they are carpenters and have basic skills. As long as they use their brains, they can always develop them.
"If it can be made into a mechanism, the price can be raised."
The price of lethal handicrafts is always higher, Jiang Yuan is absolutely confident.
When several people heard that they could earn points, they all nodded with bright eyes, expressing their willingness to try research and development.
After all, Jiang Yuan said that she could search for information and provide them with ancient official books.
"Also, it can be made into a flower bed, of any size."
In addition, Li Lei’s family raised flowers, which inspired her.
There are green plants everywhere in the slums, which naturally doesn’t seem strange to everyone, but most of the safe areas are housing.
Growing flowers is a very luxurious thing, and she is determined to introduce green plants from the slums into the safe zone.
After making various styles of flower pots and flower beds, and directly adding them with intensively cultivated green plants, you will definitely earn points.
If there are more exquisite decorations in those apartments and shops, it will also make people happy.
This was the inspiration given to her by Mrs. Anna.
Even Jiang Yuan has thought about what kind of plant decorations she needs in her shop.
Of course, carpenters are responsible for designing various flower pots and flower beds.
She had to do it herself to grow flowers and sell them in the safe zone.
As far as soil is concerned, it's a big problem.
Just discussing the wood carvings took more than two hours without realizing it.
By the time the meeting ended, it was almost eleven o'clock.
It was definitely late at night in the ghetto.
"Boss Boss, why don't you go back tonight?"
Although it's not far from her home, it's still on the main road.
As long as it was not winter, the possibility of a wild beast attack was very small, but she was a weak woman after all, and walking at night was dangerous.
In the past, Jiang Yuan would never have dared.
But now, she is not even afraid of encountering wild animals, and is even afraid of walking at night.
Waving her hands coolly, she set off on her way home.
