Pastoral Three Treasures: Adorable Husband and Adorable Baby Pig

Chapter 174 Making a Wreath 1
When I got home, I saw Liu Xiaoshi sitting in the yard, weaving something with bamboo.All around her are long and slender bamboo threads.

"Sister-in-law, what are you making up?" Li Jiji sat down on the bench, picked up a bamboo thread and fiddled with it in his hand.

"I'm weaving baskets, and when the time comes, I'll sell them in the town to subsidize my family." Liu Xiaoshi paused, "I used to live with Erlang, and it's usually enough to rely on his hunting income for food and drink, but it's different now. Yes, I still have one in my stomach, and the cost of eating and drinking will be finer in the future, so I have to make a good plan for him now."

"Sister-in-law, how much can a bamboo basket sell for?"

"Ten pennies."

In ancient times, one tael of silver was equal to [-] wen, wouldn't it be possible to make a thousand baskets to earn one tael of silver?
God, mother, who knew that money was so hard to earn, she gave back five taels of silver to that fat woman, it really pissed her off!

Li Haw was silent for a while, it was really not easy to make money seriously in ancient times.Now the family can only go out but not in. If this continues, it will soon be stretched. This belly is getting bigger day by day. One day this child pops out. What should I do if the family doesn't even have money to buy rice?

It seems that it is not feasible to continue to be a rice bug in this situation, and must find a way to earn more money.

"Sister-in-law, can you teach me how to weave a basket?"

"Brothers and sisters, it's very hard to make this up. You are delicate and tender, and you must have cuts in your hands after learning."

"It's okay, Saburo is working hard now, and I have to share some of it for him." Li Jiji smiled and rubbed his hands, "If you earn more money now, your child's life will be better in the future."

"Okay, then I'll teach you." Liu Xiaoshi put the half-woven basket beside him, picked up a piece of bamboo thread again, and started teaching from the beginning very patiently.

After studying it several times, Li Haw finally made up one, but her hands got blisters and scratched a few places, but there was no bleeding.

"Sister-in-law, can you make up anything else?"

"Yes, fans, cages, and other things, I can't say them for a while."

"Autumn is coming, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is probably coming soon."

"Well, there is still more than a month. What's the matter, asking this suddenly?"

"Sister-in-law, let's take advantage of this month's time to make more lanterns. We will sell them in the town a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival. At that time, I will advertise and let others buy our lanterns!"

"Brother and sister, what is an advertisement?"

"It's just changing the tricks and saying that the things at home are good, so that others will come to buy them."

"Brothers and sisters, this is not good. You must be honest when doing business."

"Yes." Li Jiji smiled, and really liked Liu Xiaoshi's simplicity, "By the way, sister-in-law, do you still know how to make wreaths?"

"What is a wreath?"

"Strange, don't people send wreaths when they die?" She went on to say, "It's just a big circle made of bamboo with paper flowers stuck on it, and it's put on the grave when people die."

"I haven't heard of this thing yet."

Li Haw was startled. So, isn't she the originator of the wreath manufacturing industry?

Isn't such a vast market all hers?

Hahaha!
Wreaths are made, advertisements are launched, publicity is done well, money is earned, hey, bazaar!
