Li Wenjun whispered: "Hey, don't forget the main purpose for which we carved these stones. It doesn't matter whether we can sell them or not."
Tao Guangming smiled: "Ah, yes. I have been hanging out with you for a long time, and I have caught your bad habits. I have to think about these things no matter what I do."
Li Wenjun snorted: "Ah, go. You are a farmer's market manager who is only interested in profit, and you still rely on me."
----
The residents were all talking quietly when they saw Li Wenjun coming down with a basket of carved pebbles and getting another basket into the car.
"Look at the young man, he can carve flowers out of stone."
"Yes, money can be dug out of stones."
"Wait and see what's carved?"
-----
As soon as Tao Guangming left, the leaders gathered around him in twos and threes: "Oh, Young Master, what is this?"
Li Wenjun was eager for them to come and ask: "Oh, I like to play with stones, so I asked someone to carve them into objects for me. This is an inkstone, and this is a flower pot. This one can hold a fruit plate, melon seeds, peanut candies, etc."
Neighbors sighed: "Hey, it's really interesting."
"Do you use all this for yourself?"
Li Wenjun: "Ah, no. I will keep a few for myself and take the rest to department stores for sale."
The neighbor smiled and left.
In fact, everyone is thinking: "Can this be sold?"
"Do you think others are idiots?"
Li Wenjun didn't pay attention to the disdain that flashed across the faces of his neighbors: The largest and most high-end sales platform in the county is there. There are no competitors or similar products. The results of the customer survey just conducted are also good. How come it can't be sold?
-----
Li Wenjun placed the largest one in the living room, added water and put in the hornworts and small fish he fished from the pond in a nearby village.
This is called Feng Shui Fish.
People who do business like to place a fish basin at the entrance of their home, because water brings wealth.
However, in this day and age, we cannot be so clear about it.
Those who understand will naturally understand, but those who do not understand will not believe it even if you tell them.
But the fish turned white after only one day.
Li Wenjun knew that this was a lack of oxygen, which was causing some brain damage.
If it takes a few more decades, he can buy a small water pump to circulate oxygen.
At this time, electricity is being used sparingly. Where can I find such a small water pump?
Li Changming passed by after get off work and smiled when he saw him staring at the fish tank with a frown and a worried look on his face: "What are you worried about?"
Li Wenjun pointed at the fish tank and frowned: "The fish cannot survive due to lack of oxygen."
Li Changming sneered: "Hey, can such a trivial thing trouble you? Look at me."
He went back and tinkered for a while and then made a windmill with wire and bamboo pieces to set up next to the fish tank.
As long as there is a breeze, the windmill can be rotated, and then stir up the water surface to oxygenate the water.
If there is no wind, you can still wind the clockwork, and the windmill can turn by itself for an hour.
"Hey, Dad, you are so awesome." Li Wenjun sighed sincerely.
Li Changming smiled with disdain: "Boy, does this surprise you? Your father knows a lot."
Li Wenjun thought for a while: "Dad, I plan to open a handicraft company and sell the children's dining chairs, wooden bowls, spoons, and windmills you made together with my stones in department stores. What do you think?"
Li Changming was stunned for a while and then said: "Is anyone buying it? If I can't sell it, I will be laughed at."
Li Wenjun smiled; "Don't worry, there is some. Now that we've talked about it, you might as well help me carve a sign with the factory name on it."
Li Changming looked confused: "Open a factory again. You have opened a fourth factory in a month. Just like a leather bag company, you open one factory after another. What factory is it this time?"
Li Wenjun said with a smile: "Wenjun Handicraft Factory, don't we want to sell stones and wood products? We need a factory to sell it easily."
Li Changming became more energetic: "Okay, I'll do it tonight."
----
Li Wenyong looked at the stone bowls and stone fish tanks placed in Li Wenjun's home, and his psychological pressure suddenly eased.
When Li Wenjun talked about using stones to make handicrafts before, he always felt that Li Wenjun was looking for an excuse to give him money. Now that Li Wenjun has used up the basket under the bed, the cheapest stones that Li Wenjun mentioned, Li Wenyong realizes that stones can really make money.
---
Chen Zichen secretly brought a stone back and asked someone from the Mining Bureau to identify it, saying it was an ordinary pebble. He was still wondering what kind of tricks Li Wenjun was going to do.
Now I heard people say that Li Wenjun made stone handicrafts, and I realized that it was originally used for this purpose.
How much money could this thing fetch? It wasn't worth his time to study it. It was really unlucky. He went to Li Wenjun's house to get the stone and spent the money on appraisal in vain.
----
Li Wenjun specially customized a stone fish tank, installed Li Changming's handmade windmill and boat, and brought it to Tao Guanghui.
Tao Guanghui liked it very much when she saw it and said, "One day I will get two small red fish to keep in it."
Li Wenjun said: "I'm getting some water plants to make it look better."
Compared with the one at Li Wenjun's house, the one given to Tao Guanghui is more unique. Li Changming heard that it was given to Tao Guanghui as a sample, so he just used his special skills to make a palm-sized awning boat and placed it in the fish tank.
A drunken man with his clothes open was also carved out of wood on the awning boat.
The windmill is small and unique, and the drunken person is leisurely and contented, and the half-drunk and half-awake appearance is lifelike, which forcibly raises the fish tank to two levels.
Tao Guangming was lying on the sofa in Tao Guanghui's office with a crooked smile: "Sister, don't be polite to him. Tell him directly that this thing can't be sold and tell him not to waste any effort."
Tao Guanghui pursed her lips and asked Li Wenjun with a smile: "I can't say whether I can sell it or not. Anyway, I will give you a small counter. Don't say that my sister didn't help you when the time comes. But what company name do you want to use to sell these handicrafts?" "
Tao Guangming clapped his hands: "Ha, you didn't know. In order to be able to sell these things, he hung up a "Wenjun Arts and Crafts Factory" sign under his factory overnight. This is the worst factory building I have ever seen. Fastest person. There is no one else. From the time of deciding to establish, plus the time of making the sign to the time of product release, it takes less than 24 hours. It’s amazing.”
Tao Guanghui remembered that Li Wenjun had said this before. She had long been accustomed to Li Wenjun's incident, and smiled: "I'm quite satisfied with this sample, so let's sell it. If it's sold, I'll take 10% of the profit. If it doesn't sell, you can take it. I won’t charge you either.”
Li Wenjun hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with Tao Guanghui: "My sister is still reasonable and considerate."
Tao Guangming picked his ears and rolled his eyes: "I don't like hearing this anymore. What does it mean for a sister to be considerate and reasonable? It sounds like I am unreasonable."
Li Wenjun coaxed him with the tone of a child: "Ah, yes, yes, Comrade Tao Guangming is also a good comrade."
Tao Guangming pointed to the fish tank made of stone and said: "Just tell me, what idiot would sell this for two yuan? Isn't it too expensive?!"
Li Wenjun said: "I really have a way to make people buy it happily."
