"As for what else the father wishes, let me discuss with Mbah Abun." finally Zuhri asked again because he did not find the right answer, he had to consult Mbah Abun first, as a container of their craft.


"If the true purpose of Mbah Abun wants to advance our village, what if the woven craftsmen who are already old, they only weave, and the raw materials are prepared by Mbah abun. it can provide opportunities for people who have not been able to weave, they can take bamboo, look for rattan, make iratan.so all Kampung residents join in this craft." advice Mr. RT who has since just listened


"Well, really! so it's not just people who have the ability to craft woven, but all citizens can take part if it's like that." A citizen's dream justifies their opinion.


"If the citizens want to be fortunately more, just choose according to the first direction.that is, they sell their handicrafts to Mbah Abun, at a price of Rp700." RT added his opinion.


"There again?" challenge Zuhri.


"It seems like that, I agree with the advice that Jang RT gave." replied Tardi to give an opinion.


"Whatever else how do you agree with the advice given by Mr RT?" Said Zuhri throwing the question to the citizens.


"Agreed!" answer the citizens who attended the meeting in unison.


"If you agree I will convey all the opinions of the citizens, we will discuss again after getting a decision from Mbah Abun" Zuhri said.


"Yes Jang! discuss first, then how good!" answer Mr. RT.


"If there is nothing to be added, I say thousands of thanks for his presence, may the effort we will live, given smoothness by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala!"


"Amen!" Answer the people who attended the meeting.


Finally the meeting was closed, with the decision that Zuhri would consult all the wishes of the craftsmen with Mbah Abun, and promised he would quickly inform him of his decision.


The next morning, the sun was visible in the eastern horizon already showing itself, providing warmth for souls who felt cold.in the middle of the village of Ciandam, Ciandam, there was a man walking towards one of the houses.


"Assalamualaikum, Mbah!" the man said after being at the door. But unfortunately, several times said hello, the door was not open.he quickly walked towards the side of the house, directly to the kitchen door.


"Pantes! I say a greeting unanswered, it turns out Abah is here!" zuhri said after seeing the host warming himself near the cooking stove, while enjoying coffee plus grilled cassava.


"Eh jang Zuhri, I'm sorry Jang! No whimpers. Come on in while warming up!" bring Mbah Abun.


"Not anything? I'm going into Bah's house!"


"It's okay! Who is rich!" bah Abun replied then he picked up a squat chair made of wood and placed it next to the combustion furnace, so that Zuhri sat beside him.


"Thank you so much Bah!"


"Mom, please make some coffee for Zuhri!" Pinta bah abun with Abu Yayah who was cooking rice.


"Start, responsibility! Ambu again steaming rice.patient first yes Jang, soon the rice is ripe this kok. if raised later the rice is not perfect ripening." replied Bah Abun's wife.


"Not bother Abah, Ambu. before coming here, I have breakfast!" Reject the Zuhri who felt bad.


"It's okay, Jang! Not every day I go to my house. Oh yeah, by the way, what's the matter in the morning?" ask Mbah Abun.


"So this is Bah! as we talked about yesterday afternoon, that Abah wants to take advantage of the people of Ciandam Village who have expertise in the field of woven" said Zuhri began to explain his arrival.


"Continue?"


"I've gathered all the citizens who have expertise in woven crafts, but it turns out there are some obstacles that we have not discussed."


"What is Jang's Constraint?" asked Mbah Abun while frowning.


"However what is Jang?" ask Mbah Abun who looks impatient.


"Bent on the bah! I'm not done talking."


"Yes Abah! Shit first when people talk about it, don't play cut!" Timpal Abu Yayah Who had been listening.


"Hehehe. Yes continue on! but what?" Ask Mbah Abun with a smile.


"However, as Abah knows, those who have the ability in the field of webbing, are people who are elderly. So they are not unable to make crafts, but rather objected that at the age of Renta, must take bamboo and look for rattan from the forest. They just want to weave!" zuhri said explaining the conversation that was cut off.


"Keep how?"


"Yes, how? if they were just weaving, all the equipment, all the necessities, Abah prepared."


Asked like that Bah Abun thought for a moment, weighing the good and bad decisions What to take.


"Emerge if you accept it as ,How much will you buy?" Ask Abu Yayah.


"Si Abah wants to buy the crafts of the citizens at the price of Rp700s and ambu" replied Zuhri representing Mbah Abun.


"Ngapain Abah's trouble! use the thought of everything. have Abah bought Rp750 Rp50 for Zuhri. So Abah just sit sweet while thinking about the way of marketing." suggested Abu Yayah, because even with such a price, Abah just sat down while thinking about how to market it, he has 250 profits.


"Kok like that ambu?" ask Mbah abun.


"Yes, try to imagine the same! if you still have to keep working, why invite people.sharing profits with others, will not make us lose."


"Everything is! but Jang Zurinya would not help take care of Abah's business, with a salary of Rp50?"


Asked like that, now it was Zuhri's turn to think, he did not underestimate the money of Rp50, because if collected the money would be a lot. But that made him confused How to take care of the needs of others, to provide woven craft materials.


"Why shut up, don't you want to?" bah Abun asked while staring fixedly at his guest.


"Don't want to bah! but I am confused if I have to find rattan into the forest, while rattan it has begun to be rare.if bamboo I can still handle, because in our village bamboo trees grow wild almost in every valley." zuhri answered his concern.


"Don't confuse Jang! now the time is already sophisticated.for woven binders, now there are synthetic rattan, its strength is the same as rattan in the forest." explained Mbah Abun while rising from his seat, soon he returned with a synthetic rattan of various colors.


"Is this bah?" tanya Juhri who just saw an object that looks like an iron .


"This is what's called synthetic rattan!"


"Oh, this is rattan, how much is this bah?"


"Current jang, Rp100 already got 10 strands."


"It's cheap too! when compared to looking for rattan that is already rare.


"Yes Jang, that's fine! Continue how to do anything, Ujang help take care of Abah's business.


"Later discuss it again with the citizens of the Bah. because I can not make my own decisions, but to take care of this work, God willing I am ready to help, if not me, if not me, I'll find someone to take care of it."


"So, look at Jang! true said the Ambu, Abah not unwilling to work, but Abah wanted to focus on marketing the crafts of the residents. Abah will buy all the crafts of the residents at a price of Rp750. Well, stay Ujang process it Like what, Please Ujang set yourself, How good. So that Ujang also to the profit part of the managed business." Bah Abun clearly made the decision
