The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 132 Boss, look here, I will do anything for you! (Subscribe)
Shen Le fiddled with the jade beads, measuring them here and there. The proprietress did say that the prototype of Lao You was a bird, but birds can be big or small.
Small birds, such as sparrows, turtledoves, pigeons, etc., feel no pressure staying in this circle;
A medium-sized bird, such as the blue bird of Dr. Qin's prototype last time, would stand with two feet inside the circle, and its head or tail would stick out of the circle;
Bigger birds, like golden eagles, vultures, etc.

Then don’t mention it…

How big is your prototype?

Exposing one's true colors on the spot, not to mention scaring passers-by outside the store, doesn't it seem very polite?

"Is it okay to make the inner circle so small?" he had to ask. Lao You nodded vigorously:

"Ok, Ok!"

Seeing Shen Le's unconvincing look, he waved his hand quickly, causing the tea smoke on the table to float gently and condense into the shape of a bird:
"It's big enough! It can fit!"

It means you can stay, but you can’t let go… So your original form is only this big…

Shen Le smiled knowingly. He gathered the jade on the table and stuffed it back into the small cloth bag:

“How many days will the delivery take?”

"Boss, take your time! Do it whenever it's convenient for you. Don't put it off for a year or two!"

Probably not in a year or two. With Xiao Modou's diligence and hard work, the draft is almost done. After getting the formation diagram of the spirit gathering formation, he can make a perfect design after revising it two or three times.

Shen Le smiled at him and turned to look at the kitchen:
"Madam, I'll make a trial version with inferior wood and no jade inlay. Can you find a buyer?"

“I can find it!!!”

Shen Le wanted to ask, "Madam, are you interested in buying it?" but he was too embarrassed to say it directly. Unexpectedly, before the lady boss could say anything, Lao You jumped up.

Shen Le's eyes blurred, and before he could see his movements clearly, the middle-aged man had already blocked in front of him. With his arms spread out, he fluttered up and down like wings:
"I can find a buyer! Mr. Shen, you can make as many as you want, using any kind of wood. 30,000 points, 50,000 points, as long as it's no more than 100,000, I'll help you sell it!"

When it comes to cultivation resources, Lao You is particularly envious of the boss lady and her friends.

The proprietress is a flower fairy, and the waitresses in her shop are all flower fairies. The growth of flower fairies has their own rules and needs.

As long as they take root in the earth and spread their branches and leaves toward the sky, they can attract the essence of the sun and the moon. They need not ask for anything else, and their body and mind will naturally be at peace.

Unlike these birds and beasts, when they meditate, they need things like Arhat beds, fairy grass cushions, jade couches, etc. to help them...

"I know a lot of monsters! I can fly fast! From south to north, I know monsters everywhere!
Just a few beds, I can help you get a good price! Trust me! "

Shen Le smiled at Lao You and felt from the bottom of his heart that it would be a good thing to get to know a few more monsters.

It would be nice if there was a sales channel for the trial version. To be on the safe side, let Xiao Modou make a trial version with better wood and put these beads on it to see the effect.

If one design draft doesn’t work, try another one. After going through three or five versions, you should be able to find the best solution.

If these trial versions cannot be sold, the loss is not big. Of course, if they can be sold, it will be a pleasant surprise...

"Okay then. I'll leave it to you." Shen Le has already taken out his mobile phone and started placing an order.

During his graduate school years, the boss he worked with had a lot of good wood in his hands. He didn't have much money before, so he didn't dare to buy these old woods casually, but who is he now?
Buy and buy!
"Boss, do you have any good wood here? It would be best if it's old beech, red beech, blood beech, or old camphor wood. If you really don't have any, elm, cypress, walnut, in short, any traditional old wood will do..."

In the Jiangnan area, beech or camphor wood is mostly used to make furniture, elm or cypress is used in the north, and walnut wood is mostly used to make wooden furniture in the Jin Dynasty.

The small inkstone is most familiar with beech and camphor wood. It can also make other woods, but they are not as good as the two kinds of wood in Jiangnan.

As for red sandalwood, yellow sandalwood, rosewood, rosewood, wenge, ebony, boxwood...

Shen Le felt that there was no need to use such expensive wood to make a bed for training. When a big boss paid for customization, he would buy good wood and make a good thing!
"Then you wait patiently." With Xiao Qianqian waving outside, Shen Le looked at Lao You with a more friendly look:

"The trial version won't be that fast. It will take at least a week to get a finished product. The final trial version will have to be adjusted three or five times. Don't be in a hurry!"

"No hurry, no hurry!" Lao You nodded more and more earnestly:

"Please make more versions and try more. I'm not in a hurry! The more you make, the more I can sell!"

Even the simple version, the super trial version, and the proof version that the boss bought a few days ago are already very good!

"Can this be sold? And many people are selling it? Isn't there a trade fair?"

Shen Le was curious. Lao You looked embarrassed:

"Not everyone is eligible to go to the trade fair! That thing requires qualifications! If you don't have a humanoid, or if you haven't registered with the Special Affairs Department, you can't get any points and you won't be eligible to enter!"

"Oh……"

Shen Le roughly understood. To go to a trade fair, first you have to know that there is such a fair, second you have to be able to get an invitation letter, and third you have to have points.

This requires a high level of cultivation, or a wide network of contacts, or both - or even both may not be enough. For example, what if a monster who has committed a crime and is wanted wants to enter?

Aren't you really afraid of being killed?

"Besides, the trade fair only happens once a year, and it's only held in big cities! I can fly fast, so I won't be able to make it. But those little foxes, snakes, hedgehogs and the like will be in trouble..." Shen Le imagined a little hedgehog that couldn't transform, didn't have an ID card, and couldn't buy a ticket to take the high-speed train.

I had no one to carry me, so I hung my little belongings on the tattoo and wanted to move from the mountains and rivers to the coast to attend the trade fair.

No matter how I think about it, it feels so tragic—

At the speed of a hedgehog, the trade fair would probably be over before it moves a hundred kilometers, right?

"But they also have the need to practice! They also have a need for various auxiliary items! It would be great for them to be able to buy a bed like this, and the price doesn't matter!"

As for monsters, they have all kinds of herbs, minerals, and natural treasures that humans cannot find. They rely on their own instincts to obtain more or less of them.

If you can’t come up with cash, you can still pay off your debt with real objects!

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen. 20,000 points or 30,000 points for one. Whatever you name, I can definitely help you sell it!"

"Thank you then." Shen Le put his heart back in his stomach. Of course, asking others to do work is not a casual thing:
"It's very tiring for you to run around selling things. This bed is an upgraded version of yours. Each bed is priced at 20 points. I'll give you % of the agency fee?"

"This is just b——"

Lao You really wanted to say that this was not necessary. It was good enough that I could run errands for you. I dare not take your agency fee anymore.

However, when Shen Le looked at him with a smile, his calves twitched and he swallowed his words back into his stomach:

20% is 20%!

Even if he takes the agency fee, he can still say when he goes out that he is the agent of the big boss!
By running and selling, you can establish a relationship with the big boss... There is give and take, and then you can ask the big boss for help in the future. Isn't that better than having no contact at all?
“By the way, sir, many monsters don’t have much cash, so they use the things they have to pay off their debts, and I have to resell them.

Is there anything you are interested in that I would like to save for you and pick for you?"

Well, I don't have anything special I want. Shen Le thought hard:
"Well, the jade you showed me, or similar stones that can gather spiritual energy, buy me a few within the budget of this bed."

Well, Pinocchio needs clothes, the oil lamp needs electricity, and I don’t know what the doll cabinet needs yet.

There is only a small inkstone, and I can't think of how to strengthen it for the time being. In this case, setting up a spirit gathering array around it to gather spiritual energy for it should be good for it?

At least, it could allow those saws, planes, hammers and chisels to absorb more spiritual energy and evolve faster. Or, make them harder and more wear-resistant, so they won't break down after a while of use?

"Also, you can help me buy some old items like the comb you gave me, which are old and have stories to tell.

Especially this comb, can you ask the previous buyer where the other parts of this dressing table are?"

"No problem! I'll go ask right away! If I find something that might meet your needs, I'll bring it over to you to see first. If you decide you want it, I'll buy it, okay?"

Lao You was overjoyed. It was great that the boss had a need for him!
I am not afraid of the boss's demands, nor am I afraid of his demands being complicated. I am only afraid of him having no desires or demands.

The boss has many requirements, and his requirements are vague. That's great. It gives him a reason to run again and again and meet the boss again and again.

The more you see it, the higher your favorability will be. It will be easier for you to make requests in the future!

Shen Le and Lao You reached an agreement, and he returned to the old house with a bag of mutton-fat jade, smiling. He went straight into the studio, placed the jade beads around the inkstone, and pointed them out to it:
"Zheng Mo, we have received a mission and we need your help..."

The little inkstone hummed with joy. In the vision of the spiritual eye, the aura on it and the aura of the tools around it were all rotating faster.

The next moment, it directed the saws and quickly pounced on the nearest log:
Work!

Work!

You can earn lots and lots of these beads by working, and these beads make it feel good!

If there are many such beads around it, it will become more powerful, and the tools around it will also become more powerful!

Maybe one day, they will be able to talk to it!

Shen Le stayed beside the small inkstone with a smile, watching the ink lines flying. Beside him, the saw blades were spinning and wood chips were flying.

He followed Xiao Modou's instructions and moved the jade beads back and forth for several positions before settling down to do his own thing:
Holding the wooden comb in one hand and the copper sheet in the other, he entered a deep meditation. The heat flow rotated, forming a cycle from the copper sheet to the wooden comb. Soon, the wisps of air on the wooden comb rose again:
This time, Shen Le saw a pair of hands.

A pair of rough, somewhat cracked, yet extremely steady hands. He was guarding an iron pot, slowly boiling the lacquer, sometimes lifting it slightly, sometimes putting it down gently, patiently controlling the heat:
You can't use iron cans to boil lacquer, except for boiling black lacquer. The oxidation process of iron will dye the lacquer a deep black, giving it an unusually rich luster.

Such a uniform color is actually much better than adding iron powder or other pigment powder, but it is hard work for the craftsmen...

When the lacquer turned from bright to dark, the craftsman poured tung oil into it and stirred it patiently. Shen Le watched from the side, scratching his head and wishing he could fast forward.

No, fast forwarding is impossible, and you will miss a lot of things. But -

During meditation, is it possible to generate something like a thermometer or a timer so that I can measure its temperature and calculate its time?
