Chapter 176 Polishing the Bronze Mirror
“Su Xiaoxiao, where is she from?”
"It is said that he was adopted by a family named Su, in a village called Nanshan Village below our town. He lost his parents since he was a child."
"The old Su family in Nanshan Village?"
She was still shocked after hearing this, feeling that she had heard something unusual.
In the past few days, Su Xiaoxiao looked at her bronze mirror and felt a little worried. What should I say?
If the copper mirror reflects people clearly, there will still be double and unclear images.
It would be nice if there was a glass mirror, but glass had just been invented in the West, and Su Xiaoxiao had only seen it from the sundries Bruce brought back from the West.
Su Xiaoxiao saw that the glass at this time was far from as smooth and clear as the glass of later generations. In fact, there were many impurities on it.
"It would be nice if it could be polished and processed."
Su Xiaoxiao was very embarrassed, but she didn't know how to do such a craft.
Even though Pei Yuan is well-informed, he has never seen a mirror made of glass.
He muttered quietly: "If you want to use it to look in the mirror, just use a bronze mirror."
As a result, Su Xiaoxiao was not satisfied and she shook her head.
"You don't know, this bronze mirror can't illuminate people clearly at all."
"I remember there seemed to be an old craftsman in the town who was responsible for grinding mirrors for people. Do you want us to pay him a visit?"
When Su Xiaoxiao heard it, she felt that it seemed quite interesting.
"Okay, then let's go over and visit him."
Su Xiaoxiao was very excited when she heard it. In fact, she had never heard that mirrors could be polished.
In fact, it has been a year since I came here. When Su Xiaoxiao was poor at the beginning, she didn't have a mirror to look at others.
After moving to a new house, she learned that mirrors could be polished.
"But how will it be polished?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked very curiously.
"It should be much brighter than now, right?"
After Su Xiaoxiao made up her mind, she followed Pei Yuan to the town to visit the old craftsman the next day.
Su Xiaoxiao is not very familiar with this town, but Pei Yuan is different. He has lived in this town since he was a child.
The next morning, Pei Yuan took Su Xiaoxiao to this town and found the legendary old craftsman.
Unexpectedly, this old craftsman is already over 70 years old. He has stopped doing this job long ago and is watching his grandson at home.
Su Xiaoxiao saw that the old craftsman's house was full of mirrors and other handicrafts that had been made. They were very exquisite, and she had to admire the old craftsman.
Although they all have an ancient temperament, these things really look very high-quality, which shows that the craftsmanship of this old craftsman is quite admirable.
Su Xiaoxiao explained the purpose of his visit to the old craftsman. The old craftsman put down the tea cup in his hand and poured a cup of chrysanthemum tea to Su Xiaoxiao and Pei Yuan.
"Is this why you two turned to me for help?"
"Yes, we heard that your craftsmanship is very good. Although coming here this time is a bit abrupt, we still take the liberty to ask you to come out and help us build a glass mirror."
Su Xiaoxiao said so. The old craftsman hesitated for a moment, and then said very hesitantly: "I'm sorry, you two are a little late. In fact, I don't do it anymore."
Su Xiaoxiao still wanted to plead, but they already wanted to see off the guests and drive them away.
What to do? Su Xiaoxiao looked at Pei Yuan aside.
At this time, the old man's grandson ran in from outside. He was about five or six years old. He cried to his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, grandpa, my baby was snatched away by Wang Xiaohui."
"What baby?"
"It's the little book signed by General Pei Yuan. Wang Xiaohuai is so evil!"
Pei Yuan was stunned for a moment, what do you mean?
“Let’s go, grandpa, go help you get the little book back!”
The old man looked very angry and said to his grandson.
"Wait a minute, why do you want my autograph? Besides, I haven't signed my name on the little book either?"
Pei Yuan was stunned for a moment, and both the old man and his grandson were stunned.
"What's going on? Are you Pei Yuan?"
"This is Pei Yuan."
The old man had long seen that Pei Yuan was extraordinary, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be the famous General Pei Yuan.
This was the pride of their town. When Pei Yuan saw that they seemed a little unbelievable, he took out his own big seal with Pei Yuan's name engraved on it. What else could he not believe?
The old man immediately agreed to Pei Yuan and Su Xiaoxiao and decided to help them build this bronze mirror.
At this time, Su Xiaoxiao was also stunned. She really didn't expect that Pei Yuan had such great charm.
Su Xiaoxiao just wanted to take this opportunity to build her own jam store.
Thinking of Pei Yuan's great charm, I asked the old man more about whether he could help her find a construction team with excellent ingenuity and craftsmanship.
Su Xiaoxiao immediately said: "If you, old man, can help me find such a construction team, I will give you a sack of fine chrysanthemum tea to drink."
Why use a sack? Mainly because a sack can really mean a lot of things. After all, there was a widely circulated story before. The question is: "Where to dig potatoes? Dig potatoes in the suburbs. Every time you dig a sack."
This proves that as long as there are many descriptions, sacks must be used.
The old man was very happy when he heard that he was willing to help. After all, chrysanthemum tea can clear the liver and improve eyesight, and has very important health effects.
The old man was very happy to hear this and said that he happened to know a construction team and could not come to help Su Xiaoxiao.
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she was very happy and said that she would definitely help this time.
Things went very smoothly, not only Su Xiaoxiao's mirror was polished successfully.
On the third day, with the introduction of this old man, the construction team immediately came to the place in the town where Su Xiaoxiao was going to open a store. Su Xiaoxiao showed the ideas and drawings to the construction team.
And in some places, because the construction team's arrangements were not very reasonable, Su Xiaoxiao even corrected them.
The main reason for building such a specialty store is to better promote the jam brand.
In fact, Su Xiaoxiao has already thought about this before. As long as it is a good method that is beneficial to the specialty store, she is actually willing to try it.
Su Xiaoxiao specially printed some invitations before the store opened. These invitations were designed to better maximize her brand effect.
Su Xiaoxiao opened the store to the most prosperous section of the town, and asked Mr. Li from Ci'an Hall to help find the location.
