Chapter 82 Packaging
One can is exactly one pound.
"If I can sell it at a good price tomorrow, Mom will buy a few more clay pots and package them. It will look better than packing them in cloth bags alone."
Baiyunxi held the pottery pot and admired it. The packaging of the items was important. At first glance, it must not make people feel cheap.
"Mom, you won't sell the jars together, right?"
Mrs. Li looked at her mother-in-law's series of operations. Isn't it just a sugar jar? What are you doing dressing up so well?
"This is called decoration, adding value to items." Xiao Wu looked at the pair of jars in front of him and said.
"There used to be a decoration magazine at home, and I read it once. It mentioned that decorating with yellow silk was the emperor's private collection of books... Later, it was extended to the folk, and it was no longer limited to calligraphy and painting, but generally referred to the decoration of the appearance of utensils or goods. Anything that decorates an item to make it beautiful can be called decoration.
When Bai Yunxi heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.
"You're right, it's decoration, packaging ordinary items in order to make them more attractive and sell them at a high price."
This kid has a wide range of knowledge and is worthy of being a top student.
After everyone had dinner, they went to bed early.
After a night of silence, Baiyunxi woke up when the sky was dim and bright. Since he wanted to fish for sale, he had to get up early.
As soon as she signed in, her arm was grabbed, "Grandma, can Yaya go with you?"
"Good darling, I can't do it today, the road is too far, and Yaya can't keep up with the physical strength. Just wait at home, and grandma will bring you a red headband when she comes back.
She had a busy day today, and she didn't have the extra energy to take care of the child.
"Well, Yaya will be very good." After receiving the reply, the little girl blinked, closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
When Baiyunxi got up, Mrs. Du was already cleaning the yard.
"In the future, when you have nothing to do at home, you don't have to get up too early. You can sleep more to keep yourself energetic."
"Mom, I'm used to it. I wake up as soon as Mao hour comes."
Mrs. Du wiped her hands, scooped out hot water with a gourd ladle, and mixed it with some cold water.
"Mom, you can wash up now."
Bai Yunxi looked at Du's nimble movements and couldn't help but sigh, this is the benefit of being a mother-in-law, and Bai Anchen, that bastard, doesn't hesitate to be lucky.
Just after washing up, Bai Anyi also rubbed his eyes and got up.
"Mom, I'll be fine soon."
Seeing that Du Shi was preparing hot water for him again, Baiyun Xi stopped him.
"Let them prepare their own face wash from now on, and use cold water to wash their faces and spirits. The boys' skins should be thicker, so that they look like girl dolls, which will make people laugh in the countryside."
He's not a young master from a wealthy family, so why should he be so delicate?
If you want to change, you have to start with small things.
Bai Anyi didn't care, "Sister-in-law, mother is right, I can do it myself."
After that, he took the gourd and ladle and scooped up water to wash his face.
When Baiyunxi was ready, Du Shi also made a meal. After the two of them had eaten, Bai Anyi pulled out a wheelbarrow without knowing it. It was triangular in shape, with a wheel in the front and two legs in the back. If you were tired, you could put it down and rest for a while.
"Mom, it's easier to push with this."
Baiyun Xi nodded and put the fishing things on, two buckets and a backpack.
"Let's go, go early and come back early."
The two of them got up early and met no one when they left the village.
After getting on the official road, we walked along the Qingshui River towards the town. We were about a mile away from the town before choosing a suitable location.
The wheelbarrow was put aside, and the two men carried buckets and tools to the river. According to yesterday's method, they first made a nest and then hung earthworms.
