Xu Qing saw the Third Master Yan Bugui looking at his bamboo basket left and right, but he didn't pay and directly snatched it back.
This made Third Uncle anxious. He still wanted the bamboo basket in his heart. Xu Qing's bamboo basket was exquisite and beautiful. It was definitely worth 80 cents.
However, Third Master was like this. He wanted to get a cheaper price from Xu Qing.
"You brat, you're even smarter than me! Can't you give it to Third Uncle at a cheaper price? To think that Third Uncle would take you fishing." Third Uncle rolled his eyes and played the emotional card.
But Xu Qing didn't buy it.
Third Uncle had already promised to take him fishing. He had also given him the fishtail, so how could it count?
Moreover, his bamboo basket did not need tickets. He would earn money no matter what. Xu Qing did not believe that Third Uncle did not understand this. He was pretending to be ignorant. If he was serious, he would lose.
Yan Bugui tried to persuade Xu Qing again, but seeing that Xu Qing was still unmoved, he could only take out 80 cents and give it to Xu Qing with a pained expression,""You brat, I really have to hand it over to you. Hurry up and give me the bamboo basket.”
Xu Qing took the money and smiled. He glanced at it and saw that it was indeed eight cents. He then picked up the bamboo basket and handed it to Third Uncle.
Yan Bugui took the bamboo basket and turned to leave.
"Thank you! Third Uncle." Xu Qing giggled and said from behind him.
"Patronage my ass, you stinky brat, you're mocking me!”Yan Bugui didn't turn around, he just laughed and scolded her before continuing to walk home.
Although he said that, Yan Bugui was still happy in his heart.
If he went to Pigeon Market to buy this bamboo basket, it would cost at least 90 cents. Moreover, it was not as good as Xu Qing's. Hehe, this time, he saved a little.
Yan Bugui walked to the front yard and was about to walk home when he was suddenly stopped by someone.
In the front yard, Third Aunt was chatting with a few other aunties. When she saw Yan Bugui holding a brand new bamboo basket in his hand, she became curious.
Yan Bugui had gone to the backyard empty-handed just now. Now that he had returned with a bamboo basket, she was puzzled,""Old Yan, where did you get that bamboo basket in your hand?”
Yan Bugui was immediately amused. He wanted to show off in front of his wife."I just bought this. It only cost 80 cents. Look at the workmanship. It's sturdy and exquisite!”
As he spoke, he walked to Third Aunt's side and handed her the bamboo basket.
Third Aunt took it curiously and took a look. She felt that this bamboo basket was really good.
The bamboo strips were tightly woven, but they were not heavy at all. The surface was smooth, and it did not feel prickly to the touch. There was even a faint bamboo fragrance permeating from the bamboo strips.
Was this bamboo basket newly made? Third Aunt immediately realized this problem. She was curious."Old Yan, where did you buy it?"
Not only Third Aunt, but the other aunties around her were also curious.
"Hehe!" Yan Bugui smiled smugly and didn't keep him in suspense anymore,""This was just made by Xu Qing. I saw that this thing was good, so I bought it for 80 cents.”
Yan Bugui chuckled, looking as if he had just picked up a bargain.
"Xu Qing! That kid knows how to make bamboo baskets?"
Not only Third Aunt, but the onlookers also couldn't believe it.
Yan Bugui understood what everyone was thinking, but he didn't care.""If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself. That kid is still weaving bamboo baskets in the backyard!”
As he spoke, he took the bamboo basket from Third Aunt's hands and went straight back into the house.
"Could it really be that Xu Qing did it?”Everyone looked at each other.
"We'll know when we go and take a look." Third Aunt was also a little curious. As she spoke, she walked straight to the backyard.
The curious crowd also followed.
Although Third Master had admitted it himself, everyone was still skeptical.
How could a bamboo basket be so easy to make? How could a child like Xu Qing know how to make it?
However, when everyone arrived at the backyard, Xu Qing was almost done weaving the third bamboo basket.
Xu Qing felt that with so many people in the courtyard, there would definitely be people who wanted bamboo baskets, so he thought that he could make a few more to store them first.
However, he did not expect so many people to come at once.
The crowd surrounded Xu Qing, their faces filled with amazement. The bamboo basket in Xu Qing's hand was not finished yet, but it had already taken shape. Everyone could recognize it at a glance.
"Really, I didn't expect Xu Qing to really know how to make bamboo baskets.”
"I thought Old Yan was joking.”
"Xu Qing is really promising. He actually learned this skill.”
"Xu Qing, where did you learn how to weave bamboo baskets…"
……
Everyone surrounded Xu Qing and asked non-stop.
Xu Qing weaved a bamboo basket while answering one sentence after another. Whenever someone asked him where he learned it, he would push it to the non-existent bamboo weaving old man.
In just a few words, the bamboo basket in Xu Qing's hand was also done.
This bamboo basket inherited Xu Qing's style. The workmanship was strong and exquisite.
Immediately, someone wanted to buy it.
"Xu Qing, sell this bamboo basket to me! I'll give you 80 cents." Someone reacted quickly. The bamboo basket in Xu Qing's hand had just been completed, and he snatched it over and even took out 80 cents.
The rest of the people also reacted and took out their money.
"Xu Qing, make one for me too."
"I want one at home too."
"Give it to me. Give me the next one."
……
"Don't worry, don't worry. Come one by one. Don't worry, there's everyone. Pay up first, pay up first.”
Xu Qing accepted the money and couldn't help but smile. His heart was filled with a sense of harvest. This was all money!
