Siheyuan: At the beginning, he became a stickler's father

Chapter 94 Intermediate Carpentry!

Riding a newly purchased bicycle, the tool bag and ledger are hung on the handlebar on one side.

Not to mention this feeling, it's much more comfortable than shaking your thighs!
Jia Dongxu quickly started working according to the information recorded in the ledger.

Before Jia Dongxu used the skill evolution book, apart from fainting, he didn't notice any difference in himself!
However, when he started working, the difference between now and before was immediately reflected!

The first job today is to build a table for an old lady surnamed Zhang to eat!

These days, the old-fashioned boxy Eight Immortals table is still popular, and it doesn't take much effort!
If it were in the past, Jia Dongxu would be about the same, within half a day, it would be done for others!

But as soon as he touched the wood, he immediately felt the strangeness coming from his body!

At this time, he seems to be a master craftsman who has worked in the carpenter industry for at least ten or twenty years. Once he gets the wood, he doesn't even need to think about it, and he has a complete manufacturing composition in his mind.

His hands have also become more dexterous than before!

Axes, planes, saws.

The tools were constantly switched, and the shavings and sawdust were flying. It took Jia Dongxu less than two hours to directly build the Eight Immortals Table, which would have taken at least half a day to complete.

This scene shocked Mrs. Wang too!
She lived to such an old age, it was the first time she saw someone working so fiercely, even the donkeys of the rural production team were not so exaggerated!

The wages were settled happily, and the total was 12 yuan.

Jia Dongxu's craftsmanship and price are beyond words!

After feeling the changes in himself, Jia Dongxu also became more confident!
If in the past, as a junior carpenter, he could earn some extra money by relying on this craft, now he can fully rely on the level of an intermediate carpenter.

Go to a well-off life ahead of time!
At his current speed, the construction period can be shortened by half. In other words, this means that the income has doubled!
After leaving Mrs. Zhang's house, Jia Dongxu quickly rushed to the other houses and continued to work.

Apart from the table just now, the small tasks in his hands were all tinkering, and within a short while, Jia Dongxu completed them all.

I also had an extra 20 yuan in income.

This money may not be a big deal to the people in the world he used to live in.

But in these years, ordinary people really can't earn it!
Among other things, even a job like a factory worker is, in the eyes of many people, enviable!
Even though many people are diligent and willing to work hard, they still have no strength to do it. After a month of busy work, they only have food and clothing, and they don't earn any money at all!

Jia Dongxu touched his pocket, and when he was about to go home, he suddenly remembered that he had promised Xiaodang.

So he immediately turned around and rode towards the street.

Although it was an era of material scarcity, it was the Forty-Nine City after all. Compared with other places, the streets here were still full of vitality.

On both sides of the street, there are various shops with signboards with a sense of age.

Carrying burdens on the road, small merchants and hawkers shouting loudly through the streets.

The smoke is full.

"Candied haws~~~"

"Canned sugar water for sale~~~"

"Sharpen the scissors~~~Hit the kitchen knife!"

Jia Dongxu stopped the car slowly, he should be pushing and walking, while feeling the unique and cozy atmosphere, he was looking for a small vendor selling sugar!

The ones at the roadside stalls are more than twice as cheap as the ones at the state-run stores!

"Maltose~~~Sweet maltose!"

After walking for a while, I finally saw a little old man selling all kinds of candies at the corner of the street.

With another turn in front, it will be the elementary school where the third master teaches!This intersection is the only way for those students to go to and from school.

I have to say that this little old man still has some commercial eyes, but, occasionally there are people from the public to patrol this area.

If you don't slip fast enough, you'll be caught!
After all, personal business is still not allowed. Most people would not dare to touch it, and only a few, those who are courageous, or who are really sad, will take risks.

"Old man, how do you sell this malt candy?"

Jia Dongxu came to the little old man's booth and asked.

"One for a penny! Three for two cents!"

When the little old man saw the business coming, he immediately said with a smile on his face.

His stall was actually just a shoulder pole with two baskets, one of which contained an old jar.

What's in that jar is the maltose that was boiled in advance yesterday!

And the one in his mouth refers to the small wooden stick that is slightly thicker than a toothpick in the other basket!
Use this small wooden stick to insert into the jar, turn it around a few times, and get a maltose sugar ball, which is about the size of a lollipop in later generations!
In this way, count as one!
"Okay! Give me two cents!"

Although Jia Dongxu said it, he didn't bring the stick.

But that's just a joke!

As far as Jia Dongxu is concerned, as long as this stickler changes his ways, even if he doesn't treat him as his son, he will treat him a little bit more fairly.

The little old man's hands and feet were very nimble, and he immediately took out three small sticks from another basket, grabbed two sticks in one hand, and one in the other hand, inserted them into the jar, and began to spin them.

After making one, he immediately handed it to Jia Dongxu, and motioned Jia Dongxu to try it!
This is the little old man's own business experience. When it is ready, give it a taste first. Maybe they will find it delicious and buy more immediately!

If you finish it all and let someone take it back, then they just want to buy it later, so they can only wait for the next time!

Jia Dongxu didn't even want to eat this thing at all, after all, it's something only children love, so he didn't bother to join in the fun!

But the little old man stuffed the candy stick into his mouth, so he had no choice but to take it, put it in his mouth, and taste it!

These days, if you go to a supply and marketing agency to buy candy, you need a candy ticket, so there are not many opportunities for ordinary adults to eat candy!

It is precisely because of this that adults and children these days love to eat sweets!
Especially during Chinese New Year, the two most important things for a family are buying pork!
The other thing is to make sugar!
"Little comrade, how does this taste?"

The little old man asked with a smile on his face.

"Hmm! It's not bad! It's because of the sticky teeth!"

People of Jia Dongxu's age grew up in a sugar bowl. This is not bad. For him, it is quite a high evaluation!
"Hey, this is boiled with high-quality malt. I don't have much left at home. Ours is much cheaper than the state-owned store. Would you like some?"

With that said, the little old man began to sell.
