Chapter 1283 Leading everyone to make money again
Just as Yu Huaji suggested: "How about we split up and look for it!"
Aling's soft voice suddenly came from the other side.
"Sister Bao'er! I...I'm back, hehe..."
Everyone turned to look, and Aling appeared holding a bag of brightly colored shells.
All the clothes on him were soaked.
Xia Baoer understood it as soon as he saw it.
Alingding had just entered the sea to look for shells.
She quickly took off her cloak and put it on Aling.
The little guy had big eyes, showing Xia Baoer the shell he found.
"Sister Bao'er, do these look good for you?"
Xia Baoer felt distressed and wiped his wet hair with a handkerchief.
"Good -looking, but you can't run away in the future."
Aling nodded repeatedly.
The seashells he found were more colorful and beautiful than those on the beach.
Lotte couldn't help but be surprised: "Did Little Aling go into the water? The sea water is turbulent now, and you still dare to go in, how dangerous it is!"
Aling muttered, "I know how to swim since I was a child. It's amazing!"
A group of people collected the shells, and Lotte and a few servants were responsible for carrying them to the carriage.
When they returned to the house, Xia Baoer asked them to wash the shells.
Then, she used a brush to write a poem or two on the shell.
He called You Lian and Yu Huaji again, picked up the knife, and carved out the words she had written.
Several people sat together and worked all day and completed a lot of shells.
Xia Baoer asked Letian to buy some cheap small bells.
Use a white thread to thread two or three shells and bells through them.
The whole thing was lifted up and shaken, and it made a crisp and pleasant sound.
Xia Baoer made twelve skewers.
She called Lotte: "You arrange for someone to take these to Canghai County next door and buy one tael of each string. If no one buys it at the beginning, you can say that you can smoke a bell for one tael.
Each bell has a different verse, similar to drawing lots, which implicitly indicates your recent emotions and mood. ”
Lotte agreed repeatedly.
A few days later, he hurriedly came to find Xia Baoer.
At that time, Xia Baoer was teaching Aling how to read.
"Miss, it's not good!" Le Tian gasped.
Xia Baoer raised his head and calmly said: "Speak slowly, don't be in a hurry, the sky will not fall."
Lotte hurriedly said: "Our bells are so popular, we sold a few at first, and then everyone gathered around to draw poems,
But our bells were not enough, so they raised the price on the spot, starting from one tael for one draw, and some people were actually willing to pay 10 taels for one draw! ”
You know, the people on their side.
The annual expenses of an ordinary family of three are no more than 10 taels at most.
These people are so rich!
After hearing this, Xia Baoer didn't look surprised, as if he was expecting it.
She pulled a bamboo basket from under the table.
It's all the result of her and everyone's hard work over the past few days.
There are more than twenty strings.
She handed it over to Letian and asked him to continue selling it to Canghai County.
"But this time, we are going to lower the price. You can draw fifty cents once, but after you draw it, it will be gone."
Lotte was puzzled: "Miss, our sales are so good, why do we need to lower the price? If you don't have enough manpower, I can arrange for everyone in the mansion to help!"
Xia Baoer chuckled: "I am not making money for myself, of course I am doing it to create demand so that I can make this money with the people of Linhai County."
Picking up shells only requires manpower, and it’s all for nothing.
In addition to the few pennies needed to buy the copper bells, the entire production costs, apart from labor and handwork, a bunch priced at fifty cents can still earn thirty cents.
This is enough for the daily life of an ordinary family.
