Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom-Chapter 68: Custom Order
To build walls, you need bricks.
Fortunately, the brick factory is right in the county town, so they can go directly.
After calculating the approximate amount needed, they bought it in one go and also purchased some tiles from the tile factory.
Actually, if you use whole marble slabs, it would definitely look better.
However, similarly, the price of marble would be more expensive.
Now, at the early stage of the startup, there is no need to invest so much.
Anyway, as long as the tiled surface is done finely, it looks quite nice.
Building the table base and tiling took just one day, so everything was done quickly.
The weather is warm now, so the cement dries quickly.
Let it dry overnight, and by the next day, it’s pretty much solidified.
Jiang Ran found someone to make sliding windows.
The windows were made as large as possible to reduce the number of window grilles, which makes the space appear larger and less oppressive.
Because Jiang Ran needed it urgently, she added some extra money, and they said it could be done in two days, and they would come to install it.
After the windows were ordered, there was no rest, and it was time to paint the white walls.
This job was also led by Pei Baoshan, who finished the first coat in just one day.
As for whether to apply a second coat, it would depend on seeing the wall once it dries tomorrow.
If the effect is good, then there’s no need for a second coat.
If the effect is not so good, then it needs to be painted again.
While Pei Baoshan was leading the wall painting, Jiang Ran was also busy, looking for someone to customize an advertising sign.
In the whole county town, there were only two places that made advertising signs.
Due to technology and a variety of reasons, Jiang Ran wasn’t picky and chose the most commonly used type of sign.
An iron board with hollow plastic letters nailed onto it, also fitted with wiring so that the sign lights up when switched on at night.
Before entering the book, such signs were already a bit outdated.
But right now, in this small county town, this type of sign was at the forefront of fashion.
Many signs in the county didn’t even have lights and were utterly dark at night, making it impossible to see anything.
When Jiang Ran went to order this kind of lighted sign, the advertising sign shop owner was a bit surprised.
Because these signs were actually somewhat costly, some county traders were interested but hesitated after learning the price.
With not many people ordering, it naturally got done faster.
After getting the owner’s assurance that it would be finished in two days, Jiang Ran left.
She needed to buy tables and chairs.
Jiang Ran wanted to buy long tables and benches but, after looking around, found that tables and chairs were really not cheap.
The price was somewhat high, so Jiang Ran didn’t decide alone and discussed it with her family in the evening.
Pei Baoshan, who was having porridge, listened to Jiang Ran and asked, "What kind of tables and chairs do you want?"
"A table one and a half meters long, preferably wider, and if it’s in the natural wood color, that would be even better. The chairs should also be pure wood, not benches, preferably individual chairs to make it more convenient for people to sit."
"Then don’t go buying them, just draw me a sketch, and I’ll have someone make them for you. Considering the length of our shop, we can probably fit only five tables, not a large quantity, and it shouldn’t take more than two or three days, so it won’t delay your opening."
Custom-made?
If I can have them custom-made, that’s certainly better, but who to find? Will it cost more?
