Chapter 830 Beads
Mingyi saw his mother doing the same and quickly ran in to kiss her on the face.
After the kiss, I felt like it wasn't right and wanted to do it again.
Fu Jingyou didn't tolerate his delay and took him out.
Mingyi stopped, retracted his hands, and looked back:
"Daddy kissed Mommy on the mouth, and I haven't kissed her yet?"
“…”
Fu Jingyou was speechless for a moment, then said calmly:
"Only Daddy can kiss Mommy's lips."
"Why?"
Mingyi puffed up his cheeks and stamped his feet, but soon a look of understanding appeared on his cute and tender face:
"Mom is partial!"
Fu Jingyou pushed his head out:
"Hurry up! You're taking so long...you won't get the red flower if you're late."
Mingyi was scared by his father again.
Thinking of the little red flower, the silly boy took the small schoolbag on his own initiative, put it on his back and ran out.
"You little brat."
Fu Jingyou shook his head.
"Let's go, aunt."
"Hey, be careful on the road."
"knew."
After saying hello to the kitchen, Fu Jingyou and the children left the house together.
…
Lu Miao slept in the room until eleven o'clock.
When I woke up, there was no one around me.
The warm kang is so comfortable.
She held the quilt, stretched her legs, and rolled over and over several times.
If Tang Mei hadn't called her several times and told her to get ready for lunch, she would have wanted to sleep until the afternoon.
I called Matou on the 29th day of the New Year. Matou acted quickly and got the things to me quickly by asking someone he knew.
The postal service is an important communication service department at this time. The working hours have been shortened and adjusted during the Spring Festival, but it is still open as usual.
Although the postal delivery is slow at the moment, the timing is just right.
The packages mailed out on the second day of the Lunar New Year just avoid the peak period of the Spring Festival and the start of school at major universities after the New Year.
The item was on the road for seven or eight days and arrived two days ago.
Lu Miao has been busy and has no time to inspect the goods, so this holiday comes at the right time.
After packing a large bag of hair tie and hair band samples and sending it to Matou, Lu Miao turned around and started to look at the goods coming from Guangzhou.
There are two big bags in total.
A constant bag contains the various fabrics needed for hair ties.
The other bag contains various small accessories.
Lu Miao had visited several large department stores in northern Beijing.
After so many visits, she had discovered some clues.
Things like jewelry, such as earrings and necklaces, are also sold in the windows of department stores.
The beading craftsmanship is pretty good, but the only problem is the quality of the materials.
Most of them are made of low-quality plastic with bright colors and a strong sense of glue.
For example, some pearls are white plastic beads coated with a thin layer of pearlescent skin.
If you scratch it hard, the bottom inside will be exposed...
At first, Lu Miao thought these jewelries were the same as those brightly colored silk hair ornaments.
They are all "high-end" products for children.
Later I saw many young girls gathered around the counter looking at it, and then I realized that it was not all of them.
I was confused at first, but after thinking about it carefully, I figured it out.
Plastic is a new material, the historical context is here, and the types of items are limited.
It is not difficult to understand why this kind of "jewellery" is popular in the market.
The basic price is 5-15 yuan. If the quality is better or the craftsmanship is more complicated, the price will be higher.
Compared with the working conditions, it is really not cheap.
For Lu Miao, considering the craftsmanship, she thinks the price is okay.
If you look at it based on quality, it's a bit disappointing.
There is a lot of potential here. As long as you find the right materials, it is easy to achieve results.
Lu Miao went to Ma Tou with the intention of giving it a try.
I didn’t expect Guangzhou to be Guangzhou.
It is worthy of being a city at the forefront and one of the first to open up international trade.
Ma Tou found almost everything she wanted.
There are even more types and more complete ones.
Lu Miao took out the small cloth bags for the contents from his bag one by one.
We have everything from imitation pearls, millet beads, beads, clasps, metal chains, etc.
There were about ten bags. Since it was my first time, I only looked at the quality, so I didn't buy too much. Most of the bags were filled with one kilogram of weight.
There is a receipt under the big bag. The cheap materials cost between 22 and 26 yuan per pound.
The expensive ones are the natural pearl millet beads.
The price is 62 yuan per pound, the size ranges from two millimeters to four millimeters, and the quality is mixed.
Because the price was not cheap, Ma Tou didn't dare to buy more and only weighed half a pound.
After grabbing two handfuls and looking at the situation, Lu Miao tied the bag tightly and turned to look at other things.
Imitation pearls are made by adding pigments to plastic to create beads with a color similar to pearls, but they are not the kind with a leathery surface.
The color is good when viewed alone, but the texture is inferior to that of natural pearls.
Other beads with many cross-sections and small beads are mostly made of glass.
Lu Miao grabbed some and looked at them. The gloss and texture looked good, with no other problems except for some small bubbles inside.
The large beads are more obvious, while the small beads are not so visible.
But considering that it is a high-quality product, you still have to be selective when using it again.
After finishing his meal at home, Lu Miao searched through all the drawers and cabinets.
I took the leftover fishing line that the child’s father had used to make a fishing rod and went to the factory yard.
The courtyard was originally going to be closed for the Lantern Festival, but the sisters-in-law refused.
A day's work earns a day's pay.
Experiencing the joy of counting money every day, the sisters-in-law found their work more and more enjoyable and motivated.
To be honest, I really wish I could work all year round.
Lu Miao doesn't force people to work overtime, but everyone is willing to come and work, so she is definitely happy.
When we arrived at the courtyard, we saw people working and chatting outside, while behind a door, Lu Miao was sitting in the office fiddling with the beads.
Since it was her first time, she was eager to experiment and didn't try anything too complicated. She just strung a small section in the color scheme she liked.
Later, when I compared them, I felt that when the beads were formed into a circle, it looked like a ring.
She measured the thickness of her fingers, tied a knot and closed her mouth.
You know what, it’s quite unique.
Lu Miao put the rice bead ring on his hand and spread out his five fingers to look at it from front to back.
It was not enough for him to be satisfied, so he called Mei Zi in to take a look.
I was originally concerned about whether her aesthetic was consistent with the current aesthetic of the public, but in the end, she put her five fingers together and stretched out her hand before I could say anything.
Mei Zi held the front half of her hand and said in surprise:
"Hey, sister-in-law, did you buy or make this? It looks so beautiful!"
"Um?"
Lu Miao raised his eyebrows, swallowed the question he wanted to ask first, and asked:
"Do you think it looks good?"
Mei Zi nodded hurriedly:
"Beautiful! How beautiful!"
“…”
Lu Miao's eyes sparkled, and her rosy lips curved into a beautiful arc of joy. She pulled Mei Zi to look at the other things on the table:
"I made several. Do you like any of them? Take your pick. I'll give them to you."
"Really?"
Mei Zi was very surprised and looked at it carefully.
Each color combination is very fresh and clear, and both the texture and style have never been seen before.
Mei Zi likes them all.
But her fingers were obviously thicker than Lu Miao's. When Lu Miao gestured with the ring he made with his own fingers, she could only get it stuck on the second knuckle of her finger.
Mei Zi sighed, feeling a little regretful.
"Pick one you like from here and I'll make one for you."
Lu Miao smiled gently and doted on her infinitely.
