Sea-hunting: With the system in hand, my eyes are the ruler

"Of course you can. But making bracelets and necklaces look good requires a good foundation in stringing. It takes a lot of effort to string shells together. Auntie Lai needs to learn this over and over again. It's much easier to string conch shells together. You don't need any complicated programming skills. You just string the conch shells together with elastic string. But it's best to add some wooden beads, silver beads, gold beads, glass beads, etc. in between to complement the necklace. Pearls are also acceptable."

Jiang Han didn't expect that there were so many tricks to making a handicraft.

Meng Guo was afraid that he couldn't explain it clearly, so he specially sent a few pictures to Jiang Han.

After seeing this, Jiang Han understood that because of their shape, simply stringing shells together wouldn't look that good. They needed to be braided to look good.

As long as you grind off the little bit on the head of the small conch, you can string a bunch of small conches together.

From this perspective, it is indeed easier to make conch bracelets.

"Do you usually have a store that specializes in buying beads?"

"There are many good online stores for glass beads and pearls. You can buy gold and silver beads at gold shops. Gold is quite expensive now, so you can also use gold-plated beads. I tried several stores for wooden beads, but the results were not very good. They were not the good wood that I wanted."

"What makes good wood?"

“Red sandalwood, wenge, and huanghuali are all good, but the quality of the ones I bought was not good.”

Jiang Han thought of one of his college classmates, whose family made furniture in Nanma Town, Dongcheng District.

Nanma's furniture seems to be quite famous throughout the country.

Jiang Han called his classmate, and a sleepy voice came from the other end of the line, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Jiang Han."

Lin Xubai was stunned for a moment, "Jiang Han, why are you calling me?"

After graduation, the only interaction between him and Jiang Han was buying his barnacles.

"I heard your family runs a furniture factory. I'd like to ask if you have any leftover furniture?"

Lin Xubai yawned. "We furniture makers definitely have leftovers. But do these leftovers usually get taken away?"

"Don't you have any extra? I don't need too much." Since it's a handmade craft, it's definitely not possible to mass-produce it with machines. So, I don't need too much.

Seeing that Lin Xubai didn't say anything, Jiang Han continued, "I want to use it when I make beads. As long as the product is good, the price is negotiable."

Lin Xubai nodded sleepily. He didn't mean to ignore Jiang Han. Jiang Han's voice was gentle and soft, which had a hypnotic effect. He fell asleep after listening to two sentences.

"My family makes furniture, and we've already made money from furniture. These scraps are usually sold very cheaply to people we know."

When Jiang Han was in school, he heard from Lin Xubai that the entire set of furniture produced by their family cost tens or even millions of dollars, and the most expensive ones even cost tens of millions.

The wood they use at home is of the best quality.

Domestic timber control is now quite strict, and their wood is all shipped from Southeast Asia.

"Then can you provide me with about 10 kilograms of wood every month?"

"10 kilograms is fine, no problem." Lin Xubai yawned again.

"Are you sleepy?" The call lasted only a few minutes, and Lin Xubai didn't know how many times he yawned.

"I just went to bed. I've been working all night for two consecutive days to ship a large amount of goods. What makes me most angry is that my dad only gives me 5000 yuan a month even though I work so hard."

Lin Xubai was originally very sleepy, but now that he was complaining about his father, he started to chatter non-stop. He became very energetic.

"He said his health couldn't take it anymore and he'd retire in two years, giving me his position. Even if he gave me the position, wouldn't my mom still be in charge of finance? Wouldn't I still have to go to her for my salary? They were basically making me work for nothing.

"Jiang Han, do you have any work over there? I don't want to work for them anymore. I want to fire them."

"Huh?" Jiang Han was stunned by the question. "I'm just a fisherman. I fish in the sun and wind every day. You can't possibly follow me fishing."
