Chapter 184: Ideas of Making a Living by Weaving Baskets

Madam Chen smiled happily and said that she also wanted to thank Madam Zhi for her strong support.

Indeed, without Madam Zhi, her cloth shop business would not be so booming.

Madam Chen also believes that these woven baskets will sell out quickly because they are all fine products made by Madam Zhi.

Moreover, there are many rich people in this world, and everyone is willing to spend these small amounts of money.

"I'm afraid Miss Zhi needs to hurry up and knit more."

Gu Qingzhi looked at Gu Yan, then agreed with a smile.

Then, Madam Chen mentioned that she brought back some scraps of cloth when she went to the provincial capital, and she planned to give them all to Gu Qingzhi.

After all, the scraps of cloth were not needed by the cloth shop and they just took up space, but it was more important to use them to establish a good relationship with Gu Qingzhi.

Gu Qingzhi was very surprised when she saw the bag in front of her which was twice as big as the previous bag of rags. She expressed her gratitude to Madam Chen repeatedly.

Since it was a rare opportunity to come to the county town, Gu Qingzhi took Gu Yan for a stroll and bought many things.

Afterwards, Gu Yan took her to find the group of little beggars and brought them some food.

Gu Qingzhi followed Gu Yan to where they lived - a dilapidated temple.

This was the first time Gu Qingzhi saw these little beggars.

There were about seven or eight little beggars in this group, all of them were half-grown children.

The oldest among them is only about twelve or thirteen years old, and the youngest is only eight or nine years old.

They were all dressed in tattered clothes and their faces were covered in black, making it difficult to see their true features.

When they saw Gu Yan coming over, a gleam of light flashed in their eyes: "Big brother, you are here!"

Gu Yan smiled and nodded, then handed them what he was holding and said, "This is for you."

After the leading child took the things, he looked at Gu Yan gratefully and said, "Brother, we haven't heard any news about Du San yet.

But we kept an eye on him during this time, and he never came back."

Gu Yan patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay, you have done a good job.

If there is any news, please keep an eye out for me.

I will come to see you next time."

After saying that, he turned and left.

On the way home, Gu Qingzhi curiously asked about these little beggars.

Gu Yan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile: "I asked them to help me find out some news in the county.

Now we need to travel frequently to the county town to deliver goods. If we know nothing about the situation in the county town, we will be too passive.

They are all very smart and are a very good group of helpers.

And from what we can see so far, their character is pretty good.”

After hearing this, Gu Qingzhi suddenly realized and no longer paid attention to the matter.

Gu Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he had more plans in mind than just that.

These little beggars were carefully selected by him, and he intended to train them into suitable people.

However, we will have to observe how it will be implemented for a while, and make further plans after we have a clearer plan.

Gu Qingzhi then talked about basket weaving: "Brother, how do you think this should be done?"

Gu Yan pondered for a while and said, "Qingqing, my focus from now on is to go back to school. It's no problem for me to make some jokes for you occasionally, but if you want to expand this job, I have an idea."

"Well, brother, please tell me quickly." With such a good livelihood, Gu Qingzhi certainly didn't want to give up easily.

"We can find some skilled and reliable people in the village to weave sample baskets, and we will provide them with some labor fees."

After all, it was my sister who negotiated this business. If it weren't for those beautiful styles, no one would pay attention to these woven products.

After all, how much does a basket cost?

"That's a good idea, just like making silk flowers."

"Well, Juanhua, are you planning to ask some people to do it too?"

"Well, yes, brother, you know, now that the pharmacy is built, I will definitely study medicine making and spend less time on this."

However, the silk flower business is getting bigger and bigger, and there is a need to find some people to share the burden.

"Okay, I'll take care of this later and find some fellow villagers in the village who are trustworthy and have excellent craftsmanship.

Since we are going to do this, we will try to make this business bigger and stronger.”

"Yeah!" Gu Qingzhi was instantly filled with lofty ambitions after hearing what Gu Yan said.

"Then let's discuss how much labor fee should be given?"

"Okay, I think we can charge 1 cent each for the small ones, and the big ones..."

With the experience of making silk flowers, Gu Qingzhi was able to approach this basket weaving process more correctly.

Under the guidance and teachings of Wang and Gu Yan, Gu Qingzhi no longer had the naive thought that "I took too much".

After all, she was the one who found the channel and drew up the drawings. Without her, all of that would be nothing!

She has found a good way out for her fellow villagers.

The baskets at the market are sold for 5 or 6 cents each, but how many can be sold in a year?

But she can guarantee that her basket weaving will be a big hit! The quantity will increase in the future.

This matter was implemented by Gu Yan.

Soon, that afternoon, she saw Gu Yan and Gu Lin returning with seven or eight young men from the village.

They each carried bamboo on their shoulders, and Gu Lin directly called them to the backyard.

Gu Qingzhi followed Gu Yan quietly and said, "Brother, are these the people you called to make baskets?"

"Well, yes. You go play over there first, I'll go to the backyard and show them how to do it and give them an example."

"Uh-huh."

After hearing this, Gu Qingzhi felt relieved and went back to the front yard to take care of her own business.

She told Wang what Chen said today. Wang looked at the big bag of rags and her eyes twitched slightly: "There are still a lot of rags that I brought back before...

I will put these away for now."

"Well, mother, I will tell Sister Yi and Sister Jingshu to come over tomorrow!"

Gu Xiaoshui had just returned, and when she heard what Gu Qingzhi said, she volunteered, "Sister, I'll go help you call them."

"Okay, go ahead." Gu Qingzhi thought about it and decided that it was no big deal to just call someone, so she nodded in agreement.

"By the way, sister, these are the herbs I collected today when I went up the mountain with my second uncle." Gu Cheng took out the herbs from the backpack and handed them to Gu Qingzhi.

As the deputy head of a mountain goods store, Gu Cheng would occasionally go up the mountain to check on their picking situation.

Thanks to good preparations in the early stages and everyone working together, the mountain goods store has been operating for a few days. Although there have been some minor problems, they were all quickly resolved and everything is moving in a positive direction.
