Chapter 8 Mold (Thanks to the baby and the leader for the reward)


    At five o''clock in the afternoon, the courier delivered the mold sent by Qin Xiuli to the door.


    6 sets of solid wood molds, which together cost more than 60 kilograms. Ouyang Fei, who didn’t believe that a mold weighed more than 10 kilograms, held one and stood on the scale to weigh it, and then found that he had gained another 8 kilograms and started emo.


    Qin Huai chose to ignore it and tried to make a set of animal molds.


    Very successful.


    Fast speed, uniform size and shape, the most important thing is that there is no need for subsequent processing. The mold itself is fine enough that the little rabbits, mice and pigs pressed out are lifelike, which is a style that children will like.


    "It can really be pressed out. I thought this kind of mold can only be pressed on mooncakes and osmanthus cakes." Ouyang, who finished emoji, was amazed and pointed to another set of molds that were not used, and asked, "Can Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie on this set of molds be able to press out too?"


    "You can press out the approximate shape." Qin Huai said, "The subsequent processing and coloring are required. If the craftsman is good, the final product will be similar to the dough man."


    "That''s good." Ouyang was instantly interested, "I took my nephew to the street two years ago to meet someone who made noodles. To be honest, I don''t think it was a bad guy. It''s probably Sun Wukong, so I can''t read it carefully. It costs 25 yuan per person, and it''s not enough to eat or play. My nephew broke it before he finished shopping. If you can mass-produce it, three in one batch, three at a time, and earn 1,500 an hour!"


    "Qinhuai, why are you still opening a canteen? Go directly to the door of the affiliated primary school to set up a stall. You are going to make a fortune!"


    Qin Huai really wants to take out his system panel for Ouyang to see. How can he make money with his elementary fingering? Does the stupid people who rely on primary school students to make more money and the tolerance of urban management?


    "You can just pinch one now, I''ll give it to my nephew and let him open up sales for you. He is from an affiliated elementary school." Ouyang felt that he had seen a bright future.


    At that time, Qinhuai will produce and sell, and it will be just around the corner.


    Qin Huai spread his hands: "No."


    Ouyang:?


    "How come your family has these molds? Could it be that uncle can do it?!" Ouyang felt it was time to establish a friendship with Qin Congwen.


    "My dad doesn''t."


    Ouyang:? ?


    "That''s right. These 6 sets of molds were ordered by my dad when he had not opened a breakfast shop 27 years ago. It cost a lot of money. In my mom''s words, if my dad didn''t order these 6 sets of molds but used the money to buy a small house in the city, our family would have been financially free."


    Ouyang: 0.0


    "Is this thing so expensive?"


    "That''s not the case. The main reason is that houses in the city were cheaper at that time, and they were cheaper than those in our county."


    "Then why did uncle spend a lot of money to order a set of molds that he wouldn''t use at all?" Ouyang was puzzled.


    Qin Huai said that this is a very long story. Speaking of this, we have to talk about Qin Congwen’s ambition.


    Although Qin Congwen has opened a breakfast shop for more than 20 years, his skills are still average, he was once a person with dreams. More than 20 years ago, Qiuxian had a prosperous period due to its geographical location. There were many merchants, including rich people, and both restaurants and hotels were doing well. At that time, Qin Congwen''s dream was to open a dim sum shop, make steady progress, first become the first in the county, then the whole province, and finally the whole country.


    According to that time, the most famous hotels in the county were generating income. In addition to normal Chinese food and dinner, they also sold snacks all day long. There were many varieties, all kinds of cute animal styles, and there were also series of gift boxes. What are the twelve zodiac signs? There are 100 singles and eight generals in Liangshan, and the same style as Journey to the West. As long as the price is in place, it can even be customized. There is only unexpected situations, but nothing can be done. In just a few months, the hotel''s dim sum has become a famous specialty in Qiu County, and merchants who come and go like to buy a few sets to give them away.


    Once dim sum is popular, more people follow the trend. There are one dim sum shop in Qiuxian, and they all find carpenters to customize the same mold. If the high-end ones cannot be made, they will fight price wars and roll in the low-end market. With everyone''s concerted efforts, the carpenters in Qiu County became very popular. Qin Congwen, who had a dream of dim sum, also followed the trend to find carpenters to order molds. Not only did they line up but they also added money, spending huge sums of custom molds, becoming the number one sucker in the dim sum fever.


    A few years later, the hotel closed down because the chef ran away and lost its leader. Cheap dim sum shops that rely on molds and have no excellent skills are no longer popular.


    To this day, Qiu County is no longer a transportation hub and has become an ordinary small county town. Its prosperity is no longer the same as before. The old-fashioned brands have closed down. Qin Congwen, who failed to open a snack shop, unexpectedly opened a breakfast shop in the Qin family''s breakfast shop into a "time-fashioned brand". Now, except for Qin Congwen who occasionally takes it out and preserves it well, it is still 99 new mold to mourn the injustice of money he spent on the trend back then. It is estimated that not many people remember that Qiu County’s specialty was a snack gift box.


    "When my father asked Carpenter Zhang to customize it, Carpenter Zhang advised my father and told my father that the Journey to the West series was not that simple. The reason why the chef dared to sell it in the hotel was because the master was good at craftsmanship. The mold could only be made into a rough shape, and subsequent processing and coloring were required. But my father didn''t believe in evil. He didn''t know that the subsequent processing was so difficult. You think you were Sun Wukong, and others thought you were the king of inspiration."


    "The final result is that the mold is well-made and I can''t make it. Every snack shop in the county can do those simple basic styles, and it''s better than my dad''s. So my dad didn''t open a snack shop later. He went to the next door aunt to learn from his parents and learned to open a breakfast shop for a few months."


    "These six sets of molds have been kept at home, and I can''t bear to throw them away, and I can''t sell them. Fortunately, the wood is of good quality, and it has not been rotten for so many years and has not been eaten by insects. Now it is in use."


    Ouyang can only express regretfully:


    "Why did Uncle set the template for Journey to the West back then? If we set the twelve zodiac signs, our career in face-to-face will begin."


    "How great are the twelve zodiac signs, children will definitely like them!"


    Qin Huai felt that if Qin Congwen could hear Ouyang''s words, he would definitely say: What do you know? There are only 4 masters and disciples of Tang Monk, and there are 12 zodiac signs. They cost three times more. Do you understand the cost performance?


    Ouyang Lai, who didn''t understand the cost performance, had another supper at Qinhuai''s house. Finally, under Qin Luo''s touching eyes, he took two large bags of red bean hedgehog bags and went home. Qin Luo didn''t even dare to cheer before Ouyang left, and only screamed when he was sure that Ouyang had already taken the elevator.


    "Okay, I won''t have to eat red bean hedgehog bags anymore!"


    "Brother, what will we eat tomorrow morning?"


    Qin Huai pointed to a batch of rabbit buns made in the kitchen when he was trying the mold this afternoon: "Eat red bean rabbit buns, but the other stuffing has not been made yet."


    Qin Luo: Σ(°△°|||)︴
