305 [Mr. Lu's woodcarving teacher]
At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, Huo Yaowen went downstairs after washing.
Zhang's mother saw that the boss had come down, so she quickly got up from the chair and said, "Sir, you are awake! Breakfast is ready, I'll go and heat it for you." ”
"Hmm. ”
was indeed a little hungry, Huo Yaowen replied casually.
Sitting at the dining table, after a while, Zhang's mother came over with the porridge, fritters, eggs and other breakfast made in the morning.
Huo Yaowen picked up the soup spoon and drank a sip of warm porridge, while rubbing his temples, he drank a little too much at the celebration banquet last night, and now his head still hurts a little.
When the food was almost finished, Huo Yaowen suddenly remembered what happened last night, and vaguely remembered that he seemed to be drunk, so he couldn't help but look back at Zhang's mother who was unpacking the yarn and said, "By the way, Zhang's mother, you sent me back last night?"
Zhang's mother said: "It was Miss Luo who sent you back, and at nine o'clock, Miss Luo ate breakfast and left." ”
Huo Yaowen was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Breakfast?She slept here yesterday!"
"It was very late when Miss Luo sent her husband back last night, and I remember that Miss Luo's family seemed to live on Hong Kong Island before, and I thought that there was no boat crossing the sea that night, so I cleaned up a guest room on the second floor. ”
"yes, I see. ”
Huo Yaowen squinted slightly while peeling the eggshell, although the memory of being drunk was shattered, he still remembered a trace of it.
……
Yuen Long, New Territories.
"Brother Yaowen, I have recruited all the workers, and I will be able to start work tomorrow!"
Ming Tsai excitedly led Huo Yaowen to visit the furniture factory that had just been shipped in and everything was about to be started.
"It's not bad, the place is quite big, how much is the rent a month?"
Huo Yaowen looked at this factory, which was about more than 500 square meters, full of equipment needed by various carpenters, in addition, there were several newly bought solid wood dryers.
Ming Tsai said: "The rent is not expensive, 5,000 a month, this factory was a yarn factory before, and then the yarn factory closed down, and it was under the management of the China Manufacturers' Association, and it has not been rented out. ”
Manager Lu is a person Huo Yaowen found before, who worked in a furniture factory, called Lu Minxue, in his forties, and quite capable.
"Oh, what about others?"
"Manager Lu went to find the office building. ”
Ming Tsai replied, and suddenly glanced at a few old men smoking dry cigarettes at the door not far away, immediately frowned, walked over quickly and scolded: "What are you doing, don't you know that our factory has regulations, can't you smoke in the factory?!"
When the two old men heard this, they immediately put away the dry tobacco pipe in their hands, and said with a smile on their faces: "I'm sorry, I'm embarrassed, it's just an itchy mouth." ”
The remaining old man didn't get up and sat on the ground, but he raised his head slightly and glanced at Ming Zai, took a puff of dry smoke, and said with a puff of smoke: "Hou Shengzi, your master invited me to help you, if you have this attitude, I won't serve the old man." ”
"You!"
Ming Tsai saw Huo Yaowen coming, and felt that he had lost face for a while, and he was angry, today the factory was finally ready, and he asked Brother Yaowen to come over and take a look, he was also capable, but he never wanted to run into a thorn.
He just wanted to say a few words, but was stopped by Huo Yaowen, looked at the old man, about sixty or seventy years old, and saw a pile of carpenter's tools next to him, it looked like he was a few years old, and he thought about it one by one, so he asked with a smile: "The old gentleman is a friend of Master Chen?"
The old man glanced at Huo Yaowen, thinking that this was probably the main master, and he didn't hold it up, so he got up and said, "If you don't call me Mr. No, just call me Old Man Fan." ”
"Master Fan, Ming Tsai is young and doesn't know how to be polite, please forgive me. However, the furniture factory has a rule that you can't smoke and make an open fire in the factory, and I think you, as a master, should understand the reason that wood is flammable. ”
Old man Fan glanced at Huo Yaowen, who was smiling, pondered for a few seconds, nodded and said, "What Mr. said is good, but I know how to do it old man, and I have done carpentry work all my life, so of course I know this truth." ”
"Since Master Fan knows, several masters have an addiction to dry tobacco, this is nothing, just go out to smoke in the open space in the future. ”
The two old men next to him hurriedly nodded in agreement, saying that they would go out to smoke in the future, and they would never be in the factory.
Old man Fan also nodded a little reluctantly.
This is not to say that Old Man Fan is weird, but he used to work by himself, and he was used to smoking while working at home, and suddenly there was an extra regulation in the factory, which was naturally a little pimple.
The matter was resolved, and then Ming Tsai led Huo Yaowen into the factory to visit, most of the equipment was new, and the factory was simply repainted, looking at everything good.
After another moment, Ming Tsai's master, Master Chen, ran over angrily.
But seeing that Huo Yaowen was also there, he couldn't help but be angry, and first said hello to Huo Yaowen, and then pulled Ming Tsai aside and scolded: "Ah Ming is not the master who said you, do you know that the old man Fan just now is the master I finally invited the master, you want your furniture factory to open well in the future, so you have to serve him well!"
He was still very respectful to his master Mingzai, but he still couldn't help but argue: "But the factory rules do not allow smoking to make open fires, there is so much wood in it, what if it catches fire!"
"Are you stupid, or is he stupid? Old man Fan has been a carpenter for more than 60 years, will he not know this truth?"
Master Chen saw that Ming Tsai still had the intention of arguing, so he interrupted him and continued: "Let me tell you this, Master, I also learned this craft after Old Man Fan for many years. ”
After being a carpenter for a few years, Ming Tsai naturally knows how to distinguish the craft of carpentry, and at this time, I heard the master say that his craftsmanship was learned from the old man Fan, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "This old man is so powerful?!"
"Hehe, it's not just amazing, do you know Mr. Lu?"
"Mr. Treant?"
In his early years, Mr. Lu founded a young woodcarving class in Shanghai, specially teaching some young people to learn the craft of woodcarving, and the master who invited him to teach the students was Old Man Fan, and Mr. Lu personally asked Old Man Fan about woodcarving skills at that time! Moreover, I have heard others say that Old Man Fan's ancestors did carpentry for the emperor, and the big furniture, small furniture, and even those fine carved wooden boxes and combs are easy to do!"
"Gollum ......"
After hearing this, Ming Tsai couldn't help swallowing his spit, he had been a carpenter for two or three years, and he knew that big furniture was easy to play, and small furniture was okay, but if he wanted to do fine carving, it was not a simple thing, and he didn't have a few years of study and hard work to get started.
waited for Ming Tsai to accept Master Chen's reprimand, and then hurriedly ran to Huo Yaowen, who was wandering around, and told him about it.
"You said that Master Fan was a carpenter for the emperor just now?"
Huo Yaowen raised his eyebrows, just now he saw that Master Fan had brought a set of carpenter tools, and thought to himself that it should be a master, and he was invited by Master Chen, so the craftsmanship should not be a problem, so he stepped forward and said good words, after all, to open a furniture factory, these masters are indispensable to help.
It's just that I never expected that this old man Fan still has such a history, not only as a teacher for Mr. Lu's woodcarving class, but also as a craftsman for the emperor's royal family!
Good guys, is this a treasure?
Ming Tsai nodded and said: "My master has only heard of it, but listening to my master's tone, it is true, he just said that when he learned carpentry with the old man Fan in his early years, he saw him build a set of particularly luxurious furniture, which seems to be made of very precious wood, and after it is made, it is called a beautiful! ”
Huo Yaowen said: "Whether it's true or not, since your master says that this master Fan is highly skilled, then you can't let go of this master, you can not let go of this master, you should be filial and filial piety on weekdays, learn a trick or two, and the furniture factory will not worry about no business in the future." ”
Although the furniture factory is said to be opened by Huo Yaowen to help Ming Tsai, but since it has been opened, it must be hoped that everything will be fine, and now Hong Kong has the concept of brand furniture, but most of them are foreign brands.
"Don't worry, Brother Yaowen, I will definitely serve this Fan Lao... Master Fan!"
Ming Tsai is not a person who does not understand, naturally knows that to do this business, craftsmanship is the key, the furniture factory has not yet started, I don't know how the future business is, but with the help of such a powerful craftsman, it is a matter of time before making money!
You must know that a set of ordinary furniture is not built for a few thousand yuan. If the materials are better, the craftsmanship is better, tens of thousands of yuan are trivial!
……
Seeing that it was almost noon, Huo Yaowen was not in a hurry to return to Kowloon, and took Ming Zai, Master Chen, and some carpenters recruited by the factory to have a beautiful meal in a nearby restaurant.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Fok Yiuwen drove back to Kowloon Tong.
I haven't come back for a few days, and Grandma is so happy to see her grandson, not to mention how happy she is, she muttered in her mouth: "Yaowen, why don't you come back to live, Anna is not in Hong Kong, you live outside alone, and you can't cook, Grandma is not at ease." ”
Before Huo Yaowen moved out to live, Grandma only thought that she wanted to have a private space when she was young, and she agreed with a smile, and thought about when to hold her great-grandson, but some time ago Huo Yaowen came back from the UK and knew that Anna's father had died, and she needed to stay in the UK for a while to accompany her mother. So it is clear that Huo Yaowen lives alone now, so he wants to let his grandson come home.
"It's okay grandma, I hired a nanny to cook. Besides, I sometimes come home late, so I don't disturb your rest. Huo Yaowen moved out to live at that time, considering that he often came home late and was easy to disturb his parents and grandma's rest, so he changed his residence.
Seeing that her grandson said this, Grandma didn't say much, and it was normal for young people to think that they had their own space.
"Your mother stewed a pot of soup in the morning, it should be fine now, I'll serve you a bowl." With that, Grandma got up with a smile and went to the kitchen to serve soup.
"Good. ”
Huo Yaowen smiled, shifted his gaze to the TV, and felt bored after watching it for a while, so he changed the channel, which seemed to be a news program of Li's TV station, and only heard an unknown host say: "Recently, this station received news that the new work "Harry Potter" by the well-known Hong Kong writer Mr. Huo Yaowen is a big hit in the UK, and it has sold 6 million ......copies so far."
That's six million copies? That's fast!
It seems that "Harry" will not be a problem to sell 10 million in the UK!
"Brother!"
At this time, the younger sister Huo Tingting ran in happily from outside the door, she hadn't seen him for a long time.
Being pestered by his younger sister, Huo Yaowen smiled and said, "Okay, okay, let's go there again? ”
"I didn't go out to play, I sent Suzhen. ”
Speaking of this, Huo Tingting blinked her eyes and continued: "I went to the airport to see off Suzhen just now. ”
Hearing Su Zhen, Huo Yaowen was obviously stunned, and then smiled and asked, "Where is Su Zhen going at the airport?"
"Her dad sent her to England to study law. ”
Huo Tingting looked at her brother with interest, and said with a smile: "It's not that you are not interested in her, and you are irritable when you stay in Hong Kong, so you went to study abroad." ”
"What a word! Huo Yaowen glared at his sister.
