After repairing the Eight Immortals Table for the aunt, Zhang Junping went on to make the promised Maza. A Maza, who exaggerates the straightforward and good ability of the aunt, is worthy of being a college student.

makes Zhang Junping speechless, has the ability, what is the inevitable connection with college students?

As soon as I finished repairing the furniture for my aunt's house, the neighbor's eldest sister came to me.

Let Zhang Junping repair the bed.

The shaking of this bed is worse than the shaking of the table of the Eight Immortals.

In particular, it squeaks when shaken.

Generations live together, and the bed rings as soon as they turn over at night, that embarrassment!

Everyone knows it!

Then, the uncle in the front yard and the uncle next door connected four or five furniture repair jobs.

Although the work is not big, it adds up to more than two hours of work.

I made a total of two dollars and five cents.

Holding the money, Zhang Junping smiled bitterly in his heart.

Unexpectedly, the wood carvings he carefully made did not sell for a penny, but he earned two yuan and five yuan plus a car of Hainan Huanghuali by repairing furniture.

Zhang Junping found a board car, loaded the wood from his aunt's house on the board car, and prepared to pull it back. "What are you doing, what are you pulling my wood?" was just about to leave, when a middle-aged man with glasses and politeness pushing a bicycle stopped Zhang Junping and asked.

"Binzi is back?

This is Master Xiao Zhang, who came to repair furniture for our family!

I gave these pieces of wood to Master Zhang!" Auntie heard the voice and hurriedly came out to explain.

"Mom, why are you fixing that broken table? It's a waste of money, it's better to get a new one!"

"You kid, you don't know how to live at all!

Master Zhang, who is very capable, is very good, and after the table is repaired, it will not shake at all!

Look at it, it's painted, it's exactly the same as new!" Auntie pointed to the Eight Immortals table that was still in the courtyard.

"Okay, Mom, if he repairs the furniture, he repairs the furniture, what are you doing with our wood?"

"What is Master Xiao Zhang, a carpenter! and a college student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts!

The wood in our eyes to burn the pot, Master Zhang pulls it back, and he can turn waste into treasure!

No, I said to give it to him, and he wasn't happy about it!

I repaired the table, I didn't want money, I made a maza!"

The aunt was extremely satisfied with Zhang Junping at this time, and even changed her title to Master Zhang.

She has seen it all, repairing furniture for other people's homes is not a hassle of her own home, and the least costs five cents!

I didn't spend a penny, not to mention, and I got a maza for nothing.

If it weren't for his own inspiration and looking for Master Xiao Zhang to repair the furniture at home, how could there be such a good thing?

Auntie is very proud of her wise decision!

"Auntie, you are busy first, I will withdraw first!"

Because of the urging of the board car, Zhang Junping said hello to the aunt and followed the board car out of the courtyard.

···········

Zhang Junping's temporary residence is near Caishi Street, a courtyard house in Donghu Cave in Mishi.

An ear room in the courtyard.

The transept is a small house located on either side of the main house.

The area is smaller than the main house, and it is also shorter than the main house.

The transept is generally used as a storage room and utility room.

Of course, there are also those that serve as a study.

This eight-square-meter ear room is Zhang Junping's residence during the summer vacation, or the place where he settled during this time.

Rent for five dollars a month.

When Zhang Junping returned home, it was already dark.

An old lady was sitting in the courtyard enjoying the coolness, and when she saw Zhang Junping coming back, she asked, "Boy, why did you come back?"

"I've had a lot of work today, and I'm just done!

Grandma Liu, have you eaten?"

"I've eaten it.

Boy, let's talk about it, when will the rent be paid.

However, cooking is not allowed in the house!" saw Zhang Junping moving a cart of wood into the house, and the old lady reminded.

"Grandma Liu, I can't bear to use this wood for fire!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.

The old lady stood up on crutches, walked to the side of the cart, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Okay, boy, I have picked up the baby!"

"Grandma Liu, hello eyesight!" Mrs. Zhang Junping picked her thumbs up, "Go back, how about I use these materials to make you a free chair?"

"Are you willing to make me a leisure chair with such good materials?" asked the old lady with a smile.

"If it weren't for you, I would have starved to death on the streets!"

"Okay, count your kid with a conscience!

I won't take advantage of you, old lady, and I'll give you free rent for the second half of the year!" The old lady generously waived Zhang Junping's rent for half a year.

This old lady is not an ordinary person, she is definitely from a big family.

is different from the miscellaneous courtyard where Aunt Wang lives, and the old lady's small courtyard house is her own.

Several families living in the courtyard are also her tenants.

Not only this set of courtyards, but also several of the old lady's houses next door.

They were all implemented last year and returned to the old lady.

They were all rented out by the old lady.

The old lady is definitely the earliest charter wife after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

"Grandma Liu, you don't need to be rent-free!

I wouldn't have earned this wood without the tools you gave me!

How can I let you be rent-free again!" Zhang Junping hurriedly postponed.

"Okay, I'm a lonely old lady, what do I want so much money for?

Boy, haven't eaten yet, have you?

I still have half a pot of rice porridge left in that pot, and it will be bad tomorrow if I keep it, you can solve it!"

"Grandma Liu, thank you......" Zhang Junping was moved.

This old lady is definitely his nobleman and his savior.

The predecessor of this body, also known as Zhang Junping, was a college student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts.

College students in this era are more likely to participate in social practice.

Under the banner of participating in social practice, the predecessor did not go home during the summer vacation, and stayed in Beijing to work and make money.

As a result, money is not earned, and people starve to death on the streets.

Fulfilled Zhang Junping!

If it weren't for the old lady, Zhang Junping might have become the shortest-lived time-traveler in history.

As soon as he crossed over, he was starved to death!

It was the old lady who found him fainting on the street and fed him some millet porridge to revive him.

Knowing that Zhang Junping was a college student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, he didn't go home during the summer vacation, and now he has nowhere to go, so he picked up the ear room where he put his miscellaneous items and gave him a place to live.

Later, I learned that Zhang Junping knew how to carpenter, so I took out a set of woodworking tools and gave it to him.

Of course, the old lady's statement was left by the old man in the family, and he kept it to occupy the space, and it happened that he used it, so he was cheaper.

For the old lady's kindness, Zhang Junping can only keep it in his heart for the time being.

.........

The next day.

Zhang Junping got up early and didn't go to the stall.

Instead, stay at home and fulfill yesterday's promise: to make a getaway chair for the old lady.

"Boy, the noodles in the morning are a bit much, and they will be camel until noon, so you can eat them!"

This person is useless when he is old, and he can't even cook accurately!" The old lady got up earlier than him, saw Zhang Junping open the door, and shouted to him.

What can Zhang Junping say, he can only eat the noodles with gratitude.

After eating the noodles, Zhang Junping took the initiative to brush the pot, wash the dishes, and clean up before taking out the tools and starting to work!

"Boy, don't you go out today?"

"If you don't go out today, I'll make a free chair for you first, and it's not too late to set up a stall tomorrow!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.

I added in my heart that I can't sell it anyway.

Regarding Zhang Junping's matter of making a free chair for herself, the old lady did not refuse, and accepted Zhang Junping's kindness very happily.

The old lady didn't have anything to do, so she sat in the yard and watched Zhang Junping work.

Seeing Zhang Junping's swift line drawing, he nodded with a smile, "Yes, boy, you have the craft, you can go all over the world, and you won't starve to death wherever you go!"

"Grandma Liu, you're slapping me in the face! If it weren't for your bowl of millet porridge, I would have starved to death on the streets!"

"Hehe!" Thinking of Zhang Junping's embarrassed appearance at that time, Grandma Liu couldn't help laughing.

"You kid didn't get bored, the college student's shelf is too high!

There is no shame in craftsmen!

You studied Chinese painting, right?

Do you know what the painting was called in the past?

Call the painter!

The status is not much higher than that of a carpenter!

Back then, Qi Baishi was also a carpenter, and he learned to be a carved carpenter!

Boy, remember one sentence, mules and horses are worth a lot when they're big, but they're not worth a lot when they're big!

Whether you are painting or being a carpenter, you have to collapse your body and experience life in order to have some achievements!

If you put yourself too high, you will be far away from life, floating in the clouds, how can you create good works?

Qi Lao's artistic achievements are inseparable from the word ......"

"Grandma Liu, you're right! I also want to open it, what kind of artist is not an artist, and you can't eat it as a meal!

In the afternoon, I will go back and make some maza to sell, which is probably more popular than that wood carving!" Zhang Junping said with a wry smile.

Yesterday's encounter made Zhang Junping think about it completely.

What's wrong with being a carpenter? What about repairing furniture?

Deng Gong has said, no matter whether it is a black cat or a white cat, it is a good cat to catch a mouse!

In this era, artists are really not as popular as carpenters.

Of course, this is not talking about the kind of big artists, such as national arts and crafts masters, art bigwigs who design renminbi and national flags.

Such a big guy enjoys the allowance of the State Council, so naturally he cannot be compared with ordinary artists.

"Boy, it's good if you want to open it, my old lady sees you falling in love, and I also hope that you can have some achievements in the future!

When you really become an artist one day, I'll go out and chat, and some of them will show off!" said the old lady happily.

The old and young were talking and working at the same time, and time passed little by little unconsciously.

·········

Zhang Junping, who stayed at home to work, didn't know that there was a middle-aged man looking for him everywhere where he set up his stall yesterday.

This middle-aged man is the son of the aunt who repaired the furniture yesterday, Wang Bin.

Wang Bin looked for Zhang Junping everywhere, naturally not because Zhang Junping took away a cart of precious wood from his family yesterday.

Wang Bin is the deputy station manager of the Tianqiao thrift freight station.

As for the timber that Zhang Junping pulled away yesterday, Wang Bin didn't dare to say how much he wanted, and it would not be a problem to get three or five more cars.

There are a lot of thrift stations for this thing, and it's not worth anything at all!

The reason why Wang Bin is so anxious to find Zhang Junping is entirely because he is now at a very critical moment.

The old stationmaster will be retiring at the end of the year.

He is one of the two deputy stationmasters who are expected to take over the position of the old stationmaster.

Compared with the other deputy stationmaster, he doesn't have many advantages, and it can be said that he is evenly matched.

If you want to win, you must have excellent political performance, or achievements.

Zhang Junping is the noble person he found and thought could help him win this succession battle.
