Chapter 267 Sosena
Chapter 267 Sosena
The next day, Yufei and the others were surprised by how well the jewelry was made by hand; many people were already eagerly waiting in the live stream.
He Yufei said that their materials were ready, the production process was completed yesterday, and they were eagerly awaiting the next steps.
Or they were showing off their unfinished works in the comments section.
Some were made in all sorts of bizarre ways; those who knew would recognize them as hairpins, but those who didn't might have mistaken them for mutated plants from their Haina Forest.
Of course, there are also people with skillful hands who not only completed what Yufei taught them, but also added their own little touches.
It makes the whole hair ornament look absolutely gorgeous; no wonder people's private messages are flooded with requests to buy it.
They indicated that price was not an issue and asked if they could sell their artwork to them.
Some families weren't short of money, and she loved the things she made, so she resolutely refused.
Of course, there were also cases where people agreed to sell and unexpectedly made a small profit.
For example, there's a girl named Sosena, an intern at a Celtic Level 3 mech pilot's private workshop, from a single-parent family.
Her father died fighting the Zerg when she was only 5 years old, and she and her mother grew up relying on each other.
Although her father left behind a decent pension after his death, her nanny was like a wolf in sheep's clothing. She took advantage of her mother's weakness, all because of her second uncle.
She wanted to keep the compensation money for herself, but her usually meek mother stood up for her.
Although she managed to keep most of the pension her father left her, it also led to her mother being kicked out by her in-laws.
The mother and daughter depended on each other for survival; they lived a life where they didn't starve, but they weren't very wealthy either.
She didn't choose to continue her studies after graduating from high school. She couldn't get into those prestigious universities, and the tuition fees for ordinary universities were too expensive.
She didn't think she could learn anything there, so she decisively gave up on pursuing further studies at university after graduating from high school.
She just didn't expect that finding a job after graduating from high school would be so difficult.
Many places either only require college graduates or those with higher education, or people with a special skill.
She didn't meet any of these criteria, and just when she was feeling lost, her mother gave her an address and told her to study hard there.
Having completed her training, she no longer had to worry about finding a job, so she came to her current workplace, Celtic Master's private mecha workshop, and became one of the many interns.
Sosena had no idea how much her mother had sacrificed for that one spot; she had heard that even getting an intern here wasn't easy.
She dared not think too much, but simply focused on studying and working diligently every day, doing her best to complete the tasks assigned by her seniors.
They could only silently endure the difficult treatment, hoping to learn as much as possible and eventually become a full-time employee here.
So watching other people's live streams at home at night became a way for Sosena to relieve stress and release her emotions.
Just yesterday, she took the blame for a senior colleague during the day and was scolded for it.
Heartbroken and aggrieved, she dared not show any sadness in front of her mother, and could only watch the live stream again, silently processing her emotions.
By a twist of fate, I entered Yufei's live stream and watched the entire process of her making the hair ornament.
This opened up a whole new world for her. As a piece of yellowish-brown gold gradually took shape in the hands of the streamer, and was polished to perfection, not only was her weary soul saved, but it also brought salvation to her.
Moreover, she found it surprisingly easy to recreate the items the streamer was holding, which inexplicably gave her a sense of happiness.
When the streamer encouraged them to make this item called a "buyao" (a type of hair ornament) with her, she was intrigued.
When she arrived at the studio this morning, she made up her mind and took out 3000 yuan, which she had saved for almost half a year, to buy 30 grams of gold material from her master at an insider price.
During their lunch break, she used the studio's machines to finish the half-finished hairpin design that she had already envisioned many times. She gazed at the finished product in her hands.
The absurd feeling she had before about using half her savings to buy 30 grams of gold had disappeared, replaced by a feeling of happiness and satisfaction that filled her heart.
She didn't think she was useless; she even felt that the hairpins she made were no worse than those made by the livestreamer.
Little did she know that a surprise awaited her that evening. She had initially only been making the hair ornaments as a hobby.
Seeing others showing off their work, she also showed off her own.
Unexpectedly, someone messaged her privately wanting to buy her work, offering 6 yuan, a full 20 times higher than her cost.
Although she was very reluctant to part with her first piece of work, considering her financial situation, she finally agreed to sell it.
This also strengthened my resolve to continue learning from the great streamer.
Unexpectedly, her first impulsive purchase of materials to create this item for a live stream turned into her first "huge sum" of money.
Now, in addition to her strong interest in making the jewelry that the livestreamer mentioned, she also feels a deep sense of gratitude.
There aren't many people like Sosena in Yufei's live stream, but there are quite a few too.
After this, some passersby saw the business opportunity and joined in learning jewelry making from Yufei.
Of course, some people without talent give up after a few tries, leaving behind some funny jewelry-making videos and classic lines like, "My brain tells me I can do it, but my hands tell me no! I can't! Don't wrongly accuse my funny videos!"
Those skillful viewers who followed Yufei's example embarked on a new path, even establishing new professions as hairpin makers and hairpin makers with this skill. Sosaina was one of them.
Furthermore, some people have discovered that the increasing sophistication in jewelry craftsmanship has actually been a great help in the production of mecha.
Some extremely difficult joint details are minor issues for those hairpin makers and their husbands, which even sparked a wave of mechanics watching Yufei's live stream to learn jewelry making—but that's another story.
As Yufei guided her viewers through the jewelry-making process step-by step in the live stream, the number of viewers steadily increased.
Yufei stopped changing the content of her live streams and for a long time focused on making jewelry by hand. After finishing a piece, she would wear it and perform a demonstration dance for her viewers.
The jewelry they made was given away for free on the spot through a raffle.
Even so, in just over ten days, Yufei accumulated more than 4500 million Alliance Coins.
In addition to the music uploaded by He Junlin, Xie Yiren's novels, and other income Xie Yiren earned using the money she made from writing novels as capital,
This gave them their first mech, which they collectively named "Kuafu".
