Chapter 440: Make a lot of money by printing couplets!
"Your cat has become a sperm!"

Sitting on the carriage back to Sankeshu, Carpenter Hao chatted with Sun Jianping enthusiastically. Sun Jianping smiled and told him what Li Xiuzhi had told him before about the old cat fighting with the leopard in the mountains. Hao Carpenter's eyes widened when he heard this. Take the light.

"Uncle, have you collected Keduo folk tales?"

Sun Jianping paused and asked.

"Quite a bit." Carpenter Hao rolled a cigarette for himself. The box of cigarettes Sun Jianping gave him was too precious, so he had to save it for the New Year.

"Tell me a few words, my partner will be happy to listen."

"Haha, the little girl you are dating is really handsome. Looking around for hundreds of miles, I have never seen anyone prettier than her!" Carpenter Hao took a puff of his cigarette, "Speaking of girls, I think of a story. This is from when I was young. When I was working in Fusong, Jilin, I heard someone say that I called her Ginseng girl..."

Uncle Hao was not only proficient in carpentry work, but also familiar with folk tales. He told Sun Jianping several of them in one go. He remembered them carefully and planned to tell them to Qian Huijun when he went back.

After sending him to the entrance of Sankeshu Village, Sun Jianping politely declined his invitation to "go home and sit" and drove his carriage straight to the commune!

Tomorrow is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month and I’m going to the market. There are still a lot of things I haven’t prepared!
He first came to the commune and looked for Director Yang. When he saw him coming in, Director Yang waved with a smile and handed him a list, "Look, your milk is quite popular. More than 20 people have ordered it." However, your aunt said that it is too troublesome to deliver the milk from door to door. How about you talk to Director Lang directly and deliver the milk to them, which will be convenient for everyone. You can choose between two methods..."

“I think it’s better to cooperate with the supply and marketing cooperative!”

Sun Jianping took the list and glanced at it, and suddenly thought of a question!
We sell milk to various houses with such great fanfare. If someone gets caught and puts a big hat on us, let alone selling milk, the two cows may not be saved!
"Selling to them saves worry and trouble."

Director Yang didn't ask any more questions and casually agreed, "On the third day of junior high school, if you have nothing to do, bring your partner here. Your aunt has always said that she would entertain you alone."

"Uncle, you are too polite. I will appoint you when the time comes!"

Sun Jianping turned around and walked out. He suddenly remembered something and turned back, "Where is Director Teng, why haven't you seen him recently?"

"I went back to the city to celebrate the New Year. I have to wait until after the new year to come over."

Director Yang smiled and said, "There are also many educated youths who go home to celebrate the New Year, right?"

"Well, Tian Guangming and Zhou Wei seem to be going back. I don't know much about the others."

"The higher authorities have issued an initiative, saying that it is best for educated youths from all over the country to stay where they are, to spend a meaningful Spring Festival with the poor and lower-middle peasants, and not to wander around and increase the burden on the transportation department. You can convey it when you go back."

When Sun Jianping heard this, he thought!
What kind of proposal, it is clear that they will not be allowed to go back!

I'm afraid that after the educated youths go back, they will try all kinds of ways to stay in the city and not come back!
Really...

Anyway, going home has nothing to do with him. His house has been scattered into stars, so why go back?

house……

Who knows who owns the house now?
It's better to just hang out in the second horse frame!

"I understand, uncle."

"Go back slowly! Remember to come here in the third grade of junior high school!"

Director Yang stood by the window and watched him go away. Then he sat down, picked up a newly issued document, and read it carefully from beginning to end.

Director Lang is still so thin, his face is so tight that he doesn't even smile, which makes people feel frightened just by looking at him.

"In principle, the establishment of milk sales outlets in supply and marketing cooperatives is not allowed, but you can sell milk to our supply and marketing cooperatives as a specialty product, and we will sell it to people in need. This is okay."

Director Lang gave Sun Jianping two choices in a stiff tone.

Sell ​​your milk on behalf of others. Sorry, the boss doesn’t allow it!
Sell ​​the milk to us and we'll take a commission from it, no problem!
"Then I don't know the price at which the supply and marketing cooperative buys milk now..." Sun Jianping had already made up his mind, and now the only problem was the price.

"Eight cents, after all, it's a rare thing." Director Lang opened the drawer and pulled out a receipt, "Stop the ink and give me a nice word!"

What else is there to say!
We deliver to every house for a dime a pound!
I'll sell it to you for eight cents!

Although I made two cents less, at least I saved a lot of trouble!
"Okay, it's settled!" Sun Jianping took the pen, signed his name, took out the seal of Team 7, and pressed it with a sigh.

"Then it's settled. You deliver them once every two days, and we'll sell them out." Director Lang handed him the note, "From now on, you can just contact Xiao Cai directly."

"Then thank you, leader..."

Director Lang didn't even raise his head. He grabbed the abacus and crackled the accounts. Sun Jianping was in trouble. This man...

"Others are like that! What's the price? Eight cents. The price is not bad. Otherwise, why don't you have to deliver it to various stores?"

Aunt Cai was very satisfied with the result. She gave Sun Jianping a few knives of red paper, a box of ink, and handed him a bag of sugar before watching him go out.

"Remember to come on the third day of junior high school!"

"I know, Auntie, I will appoint you when the time comes!"

Sun Jianping drove the carriage and carefully put the note written by Director Lang into the bottle. The piece of paper was still stamped with the seal of the supply and marketing cooperative!
If someone deliberately talks about milk, this note will be his talisman!
After living in the countryside for a while, Sun Jianping was deeply aware of the sinister nature of people's hearts. As the saying goes, "shooting the first bird with a gun", Ermajia has made a lot of money this year. Maybe those red-eyed ghosts are plotting against them behind their backs!
You can’t help but be on guard!

After arriving home, he called Miss Qian, who was studying the Barefoot Doctor's Manual seriously, and found a few more people to start his own printing business in his "new" house!
Compared to making gunpowder, this job is quite simple!
He opened the ink bottle and poured it into an enamel basin. The bad smell of the ink made Miss Qian cover her nose.

Sun Jianping frowned, added some water to it, mixed the ink thoroughly, picked up a brush, dipped it in thick ink, and carefully brushed it on the yellow glass board.

The protruding writing on the board was all stained with black ink. He picked up the cut red paper, carefully spread it on it, and then gently scraped it evenly with a piece of wood.

Qian Huijun and others looked at him doing the ancient "printing" with curiosity.

Everything depends on the right time, place, and right people. If it weren't for Carpenter Hao's exquisite craftsmanship, he wouldn't be able to make these three templates. Without these things, the so-called printing would be impossible.

"Be careful, don't tear it..."

The two of them each pulled one end, carefully pulled off the compacted red paper, put a tack on it, and nailed it to the wall.

Qian Huijun tilted his head and glanced from beginning to end. The quality was really good!

The ink is even and the font is full, almost exactly like handwriting!
"Good!"

"Then let's organize it like this. We two will be responsible for the first couplet, sister-in-law, you and Guiying will be responsible for the second couplet, and Yanqin, you will be responsible for the horizontal batch!"

Several people were divided into three groups, each divided their work, and they all got busy. They pressed the cut red paper on it, pressed it tightly, and then peeled it off to create beautiful couplets!

"Hurry up and work harder now, or you won't be able to sell it after the New Year!"

Although it was cold outside, several people were busy and busy, sweat dripping down their noses and temples.

"Brother Jianping, how much does a pair of our couplets cost?" Chen Yanqin, who was in charge of printing horizontal batches and was the fastest, asked curiously.

"A dime a pair."

"Then how much can we earn?"

"Do the math, our red paper costs ten cents a piece, four pairs of couplets can be cut out of one red paper, and the ink costs two cents a box... We can earn six cents for a pair of couplets!"

"One couplet is worth six cents, and ten couplets are worth six cents, isn't it?"

"Get to work quickly!"

Li Xiuzhi smiled and urged, "When you make money, your brother Jianping will buy you new clothes!"

"New clothes...Sister Huihui didn't buy them for Brother Jianping..."

"hiss!"

Halfway through her words, the little girl's foot was stepped on!
"What did you buy?"

Sun Jianping turned to look at Qian Huijun.
