The sudden hawking sound soon attracted a large number of people to watch.
However, these onlookers, looking at the exploding firecrackers, hid far away and did not dare to get close.
This unknown thing makes many people fear.
"Hello, fellow citizens!"
Just when there were enough onlookers, Jiang Yifeng stood up with a smile on his face, "I believe everyone must be curious about what this is. This thing is a firecracker. It is a novelty recently invented by Gongshu. As long as it uses flames, If you light it and throw it out, it will make a loud explosion."
As he spoke, he asked Su Dongchu beside him to light a firecracker and throw it towards the snow.
Snapped!
As the fuses burned out, the firecrackers exploded a hole in the snow, scaring many children back and covering their ears nervously.
Of course, they only looked scared on the surface, but in fact their eyes were filled with longing.
"How much does this firecracker cost?"
At this time, a young man about the same age as Su Dongchu asked.
Jiang Yifeng saw a guest and quickly introduced: "This small one costs two copper coins, this medium one is much more powerful, so it costs ten copper coins each, and as for this large one, it costs three taels of silver. "
When the boy heard the price of the largest firecracker, he couldn't help but frowned, "Why are these large firecrackers so expensive?"
"Let me show you."
Jiang Yifeng said, fixed the big firecrackers and asked the store clerk to light them.
When the onlookers saw such a big firecracker, they all kept moving back, for fear that it would affect them.
After all, small firecrackers look quite powerful, and such big firecrackers may blow up people to death.
However……
When the fuse was completely burned out, the big firecracker did not explode. Instead, it suddenly shot out a ball of flame, held a long red tail, flew high into the air and exploded.
Although this can only be regarded as a low-end version of fireworks, the red fireball formed in the sky still caused many people to exclaim.
"This...what is this?"
"Oh my God, it just opened a flower in the sky, it's amazing."
"It's so beautiful. No wonder it costs three taels of silver each. It's just that the price is too expensive and ordinary people can't afford it."
Jiang Yifeng listened to the words of the people around him, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.
Of course he knew that large firecrackers were expensive, because these large firecrackers were not sold to ordinary people at all. Their main customers were wealthy families and merchants.
Maybe this will sell a lot less, but if the price is higher, the overall profit will not be much different.
In addition, he does not cheat the poor.
The fireworks are for viewing, not for setting off in person. On the contrary, the people setting off the fireworks are too close and the viewing effect is not good.
"It feels like the New Year now!"
Jiang Yifeng looked at the fireworks in the sky and nodded with satisfaction.
How can we celebrate the New Year without firecrackers!
So, he took Su Dongchu to the Gongshu family and asked the Gongshu family members to make a large number of firecrackers.
Although time was urgent, the Gongshu family had a large number of people, and all kinds of materials were readily available, so a large number of firecrackers were produced in a very short period of time.
Moreover, it is still being manufactured continuously.
"The big one is too expensive. Give me ten copper coins for the small one and two medium-sized ones."
The boy looked at the large firecrackers with envy, and finally chose small and medium firecrackers.
"okay!"
Jiang Yifeng asked the waiter to collect the money, and at the same time handed over the firecrackers and reminded: "Be careful when setting off firecrackers, especially these medium-sized ones. Throw them away immediately after lighting them, otherwise your palms will be blown off."
"Do not set off firecrackers at home, in firewood piles, or in flammable places. These firecrackers can cause fires. Although firecrackers are needed to add joy to the Chinese New Year, it is better not to set them off if the firecrackers leak."
"Also, don't throw firecrackers in while your husband is going to the toilet because he scolds you, otherwise he will be all over you... Anyway, be careful."
The young man just nodded perfunctorily at first, but after hearing this, his eyes lit up.
Then, he nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, I will be careful not to be caught by sir."
Not to be caught by Mr.
What do you mean?
As a teacher from Yuelu Academy, Jiang Yifeng quickly wanted to warn the young man not to mess around, but the young man had already run away.
Looking at the young man leaving, Jiang Yifeng turned to look at Su Dongchu and asked: "He... shouldn't be from Yuelu Academy, right?"
"no!"
Su Dongchu shook his head, and then said with excitement on his face, "Brother-in-law, you are really a talent. You even thought of using firecrackers to blow up the toilet. I can't help but want to try it on my family."
family?
Your parents go out to visit friends, your eldest brother is not at home, and your sister is the only one left in your family.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng quickly warned: "You want to die. If your sister catches you, she will definitely kill you."
Hearing this, Su Dongchu trembled, "Forget it then, I'd better change myself!"
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Yifeng and shook his head repeatedly in the next second.
My brother-in-law is so kind to me, how could I do such a thing to my brother-in-law?
Since neither my sister nor my brother-in-law can do it, who should I look for?
The third and fourth child?
no!
They are my sworn brothers, and it is so disrespectful for me to treat them like this.
It seems that we can only...
wrong……
Su Dongchu was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled evilly, "I can give the firecrackers to the third and fourth children. They also have family members."
Thinking of this, Su Dongchu secretly grabbed a handful of firecrackers and set them off.
…
After Jiang Yifeng finished selling in one store, he took Su Dongchu to the next store.
In order to increase the sales of firecrackers, Jiang Yifeng even told the story of Nian Beast.
Although almost no one believed the story of the Nian beast, many people bought more or less with the attitude that they would rather believe that it existed than that it did not exist.
However, the most generous families were those who launched hundreds of large firecrackers.
Of course, their purpose is not only to release, but also to sell goods.
These families are not stupid. After Jiang Yifeng proposed the concept of bringing goods, they planned to follow suit and sell their own goods at the Oiran Competition.
The best way to attract customers is to use large firecrackers that easily attract attention.
In this way, the firecrackers made by Gongshujia were quickly sold out.
The Gongshu family members who came to Sioux City to deliver firecrackers also smiled when they saw that all the firecrackers had been bought.
Of course, it was not because they made money, but because they once again heard the people of Sioux City affirming the public losers.
"As expected of a descendant of Gongshu, he actually created such a magical thing."
"Of course, Gongshu Ban is the most skilled craftsman in the world. As a descendant, Gongshu family will naturally not be inferior."
"The public loser is not as embarrassed as the public loser..."
