Chapter 12 Crafts
"Come here, put it here. Oh, be careful."
Shirakawa Kaede commanded Toratarou to place two televisions on the ground. He was so cautious that if you didn't know, you would think they were some treasures.
"Xiao Feng, these junk are not worth much, don't be so nervous. If it breaks, just go get another one."
Kashiwagi put down the food processor in his hand, opened a can of beer, and drank it.
Shirakawa Feng didn't pay any attention to Kashiwagi's teasing and moved around the two TVs, touching and looking at them left and right.
The one in the small warehouse at Matsumoto had almost no damage , but the one in the large warehouse had a crack on the screen.
Knowing what was going on, he stood up and dusted off his hands, "Uncle Kashiwagi, I'll try to see if I can repair them."
"Huh?" Kashiwagi looked at Baichuan Feng in surprise, "Is this true? Can this thing be repaired?"
In Kashiwagi's impression, televisions are considered high-tech products and ordinary people cannot understand them.
"Give it a try. If it doesn't work, you won't lose anything." That's the truth. But if it works, you'll make a lot of money.
"That's right." Kashiwagi thought that Shirakawa Kaede was just saying it casually. It was normal for young people to have some hobbies.
"Then I won't bother you. Let's go to a pub together tonight... Oh no, you're underage and the boss won't sell you alcohol. Anyway, let's find a restaurant and have a good meal. It's my treat."
"Siguoyi, thank you, Uncle Kashiwagi."
As soon as Kashiwagi left the room, Kotaro came over immediately, "Xiaofeng, can it really be fixed?"
"I don't think it's a big problem. Have you bought the tools I asked you to buy last time?"
When he left last time, Shirakawa Feng left some money for Kotaro and asked him to help buy some common tools for repairs when he was free.
"You still don't trust me?" Kotaro said as he walked to the corner and brought over a tool bag.
"Here, it's all in there. But these things aren't cheap. They cost about 10,000 or 20,000 yen."
Kotaro wondered if Shirakawa Kaede was being careless this time, as he had already spent so much money before he even started repairing the things.
This amount is enough to live in Xiaolu Village for several months.
Baichuan Feng waved his hand. This was a necessary investment. Besides, this little money was nothing.
He opened the tool kit and saw what was inside. He immediately became excited: soldering iron, multimeter, screwdriver... …all kinds of tools were there.
With these handy guys, Baichuan Feng is more confident in making big money.
Since everything was ready, Baichuan Feng did what he said. He turned on the intact TV and tried it first, and there was indeed only sound but no picture.
According to his experience, if this kind of problem occurs on this kind of old-fashioned transistor TV, it is most likely that there is something wrong with the cathode ray tube.
So he used a heat gun to carefully remove the anti-dismantling signs that said "Tearing off will void the warranty".
I will need it later. Without these labels, if I take it to a second-hand store, the owner will definitely bargain hard for me.
This set of moves is a professional one. Kotaro couldn't take his eyes off. Although he didn't understand what Shirakawa Kaede was doing, he was deeply shocked.
After doing all this, Baichuan Feng began to dismantle the TV into pieces. He glanced at the cathode ray tube behind the screen and thought to himself that it was as expected.
Then he did not hesitate and dissected another TV set into parts. However, he was much more rough than last time, because the screen of this TV was broken and there was no way to save it.
After a series of changes, Baichuan Feng restored the TV to its original state. Even the various labels were restored to their original positions, without any signs of abnormality.
With this set of techniques, you will never have to worry about food even after a few decades.
"Si Guoyi!" Kotaro witnessed Shirakawa Kaede's entire operation with his own eyes, but he still felt like he was watching a magic show.
With a whoosh, the TV set broke into two pieces. With a whoosh, the TV set returned to its original state.
"Let's try it." Shirakawa Feng signaled Kotaro to plug in the power supply. He was also somewhat looking forward to his own operation.
Kotaro carefully plugged in the power and turned on the switch.
Come on, sit on the shooting star
The Milky Way is the railway that crosses the continent.
The screen flashed, and then Yamaguchi Momoe appeared wearing a white long dress, holding a microphone and singing and dancing gently .
"Yamaguchi Momoe" Kotaro relaxed his body, sat directly on the ground, and supported his body with one arm.
The two of them stared at the TV blankly, nodding slightly to follow Yamaguchi Momoe's singing.
It was not until the song ended that the two of them sighed with loss.
"Hey!" Kotaro suddenly reacted and jumped up. "Xiao Feng, it's okay! It's really okay! And it's colorful!"
"Hai~ Hai~" Looking at the colorful pictures on the TV screen, Baichuan Feng also smiled relaxedly.
It seems that his skills have not been lost, and his plan to make a fortune has also been realized.
With the mentality of making persistent efforts, Baichuan Feng started to fiddle with the food processor again.
There seems to be nothing wrong with the appearance, but it just doesn't work. I used a multimeter to test the machine and found that it had no power at all.
He opened the cover of the power connection and found that only one wire was loose. He screwed it in and turned on the power, and it was fixed.
In less than an hour, the electrical appliances that were originally in a pile of junk were restored to life again.
The reason why Baichuan Feng chose the TV and the food processor is because the former is of higher value and once sold, it will be a considerable income.
The latter food processor is purchased purely because it is easy to sell and its value itself is not that high.
With the development of economy, household appliances have become widely used in big cities in RB.
However, the process of popularization of home appliances follows the rule of large appliances first and then small appliances.
To be more specific, first the TV, refrigerator, washing machine, then the bread maker, food processor, and microwave oven.
When people consume, they first consider products with basic needs, such as large appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines, which can qualitatively change people's lives and greatly improve their quality of life.
However, auxiliary kitchen appliances such as bread makers and food processors are not so necessary.
However, 75 years ago, large cities had already achieved the popularization of large household appliances, and what is being promoted now is the revolution of .
For example, the food processor in front of Shirakawa Kaede has only been on the market for less than two years, and its penetration rate does not exceed 50%. Although its value is not high, it is in high demand and easy to sell.
The first batch of products have been completed, and the next step is to sell them for money.
After hearing about Shirakawa Kaede's plan, Kotaro was so attentive that he carefully wiped the two appliances inside and out.
Not to mention that the appearance and quality have been improved to a higher level, it is almost 90% new.
"Xiao Feng, can these two machines really be exchanged for money? Who should I ask for the exchange?" Kotaro has only been in Tokyo for a short time, and he doesn't even know that there are such things as second-hand shops.
In fact, he had some thoughts. He was reluctant to part with the TV. There were only a few black-and-white TVs in Xiaolu Village, let alone color ones.
When I was a child, I used to watch various cartoons at the village chief’s house. Now, seeing a real color TV in front of me, I can’t tell you how excited I am.
Shirakawa Feng knew what he was thinking, and he patted Kotaro on the shoulder. "Kotaro, I promise that I will have a bigger and better TV in the future, several times bigger than this one."
"real?"
"Really? And it's brand new."
"good."
