Swallowing his saliva and smoothing the creases on his clothes, Li Yuqing stepped forward and knocked lightly, and it took a while before someone came to open the door.

A young brother opened the closed door, saw Li Yuqing and the people behind her, touched his head and asked, "Is there something wrong with the girl knocking on the door?"

Seeing that the little brother's tone was kind, Li Yuqing was relieved, and stepped forward to ask, "Little brother, this is Zhu Dagui's family, which sells bricks and tiles." ”

When the little brother heard Li Yuqing's words, he originally wanted to find his owner, although he didn't know why, he didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly replied, "It's my owner, and the girl has something to do with my owner." ”

Li Yuqing got an affirmative answer, cleared her throat and said, "My family needs to buy bricks and tiles to build a house, so come and ask about it." Please inform your owner. ”

The little brother didn't go immediately when he heard Li Yuqing say this, but he was very embarrassed, the bricks and tiles of the Zhu family are very famous in this area, time-honored, cheap and durable, so there are many people who come to buy. In the past, some people often wanted to buy a little bricks and tiles to show off in the village, but the owner was very irritable about this, so he ignored the regulations to buy a small amount.

Li Yuqing was not very happy when she saw the little brother at the door, who neither informed nor invited her group in. Just now his good image was greatly discounted, "Little brother, I want to buy bricks and tiles, why don't you tell me, but your owner is not there." ”

The little brother saw that although Li Yuqing was dressed ordinarily, she also had a special temperament standing there, and he didn't want her to misunderstand and explained, "The girl doesn't know, my owner has stipulated that if you buy less, you won't be accepted." ”

Li Yuqing was even more unhappy, it turned out that this person looked down on people. This little brother felt that he was wearing a shabby dress, so he didn't care about himself, and his tone was not good, "I looked down on me for a long time, this time-honored brand of the Zhu family is also a place where dogs look down on people, and it's not only this one, but it's another house." ”

Li Yuqing turned around to leave, and the little brother was anxious when he saw Li Yuqing say this. Afraid that she would misunderstand, he quickly pulled her arm, and felt a little abrupt and let go

"No, girl, there is a reason for this, because our Zhu family's bricks and tiles are cheap and durable, and ordinary people can afford them. ”

Raising his eyes, he looked at the expression on Li Yuqing's face, and said, "There are always some people who come to buy a few pieces every once in a while and disturb the owner to fire." Because the fire wasted a lot of bricks and tiles, the owner became angry after a long time, and if he didn't buy enough to build a house, he would ignore it. I'm just hesitating to know how many girls I want, and if I don't have them, ・・・・・"

Li Yuqing heard what he meant, and she still felt that she didn't look like she was rich. However, after listening to the explanation, his anger disappeared: "Don't worry, little brother, I'm going to buy a lot." This time, let's go inside. ”

The little brother touched his head embarrassedly, "Girl, please, the owner said that if you buy more, you don't need to report it, please go in directly." ”

After listening to Li Yuqing's black lines, she also said that it was not a dog who looked down on people, no matter how obvious the differential treatment was, it was still a rich man's toughness.

I secretly swore in my heart that I would never let others turn me away because of money in the future. After thinking about it, he raised his feet and walked in with the little brother.

Walked around the vestibule and through the hallway, and before I got close to the backyard, I heard a cacophony of noises. Slowly walking into the backyard, pushing open the closed small door, I was greeted by a pile of neatly stacked green bricks.

Unlike the desertion of the front door, it is not as if it is the same world. The people inside had a clear division of labor, and while transporting the green bricks that had been made from the stone kiln, they carried the customer's good bricks and tiles to the ox cart at the back door.

Li Yuqing was shocked by the scene in front of her, and stood motionless at the door. It was the first time she had seen such a spectacular scene. A lean old man commanded the workers, busy in an orderly manner. Li Yuqing was infected by his courage, and felt that her blood was burning.

The little brother who led Li Yuqing in was very proud when he saw Li Yuqing staring at the qi in front of him motionlessly. Although it was the same when he first arrived, it didn't prevent him from feeling the pleasure of seeing other people's expressions.

called Li Yuqing a few times, and Li Yuqing reflected. Feeling his gaffe, he blushed embarrassedly, and the little brother didn't say anything, but he could see his smugness on his barely maintained face.

led Li Yuqing to the lean old man who was still in command, the little brother stepped forward and bent over, Li Yuqing thought that he had brought him to find a manager, but when he heard the title of the little brother, he was not calm. "Boss, this girl is going to buy bricks and build a house. ”

The old man frowned, turned his face to look at Li Yuqing, his expression remained unchanged, and asked, "Can you make it clear?"

The little brother hurriedly replied, "I asked, I came here to buy enough to build a house."

After hearing this, the old man nodded slightly, looked at Li Yuqing with a softened expression, and asked, "The little girl wants to buy it, if you have less, don't come to bother me, you also see that I am very busy." ”

Li Yuqing only reacted when she saw the old man talking to herself, this old man was Zhu Dagui. Hearing the name, Li Yuqing thought it was a middle-aged man with a fat brain. This name doesn't match people.

After all, Zhu Dagui is much older than himself, Li Yuqing took a step forward and leaned down slightly in order to show respect. "You are Boss Zhu, my family is building a house now, I heard that your bricks and tiles are very famous, so I came here, I want to buy a lot I don't know what kind of use I want to buy." ”

Zhu Dagui's eyes narrowed, this little girl is strange, although she is not dressed very well, with her experience for so many years, this woman will definitely not be in the pool in the future. The face softened a little, "There are three kinds of green bricks, average, medium, and high." The tiles are all the same."

Looking at Li Yuqing, her eyes lit up, she listened carefully, and then explained: "I build yì, you buy medium, the general price is cheap, but they are not well fired and have flaws." The high-ranking ones were used by dignitaries and nobles to repair the courtyard for aesthetic purposes. ”

Li Yuqing didn't expect Zhu Dagui to explain to herself, and she was very grateful. Since he explained it so clearly, Li Yuqing decided to buy a medium one, and he didn't have to live there for a lifetime anyway. "Then trouble Boss Zhu to explain the medium price. ”

Zhu Dagui saw Li Yuqing so refreshing, and his heart was also very comfortable, he had been in business for so many years, what kind of strange thing had he never seen, how long had he not met such a direct person, and the other party was still a little girl.

"Two dollars for three cents, depending on how much you want to buy, if you have more, you can send it for free. If you don't have much, you'll be able to solve it yourself. ”

Li Yuqing wanted to build more than a dozen houses, and she didn't know how many bricks she would need, so she was very distressed. Zhu Dagui saw Li Yuqing's tangled look, thinking that she felt that the price she asked for was too high, and she was very unhappy.

"Little girl, do you think the price I want is too high, and you don't ask me about it, this is a century-old brand, the lowest price, and the best quality. His words were full of unhappiness, and his face was pale.

The little brother who stood aside and didn't leave felt a little that his owner was changing his face too fast, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

Li Yuqing is even more innocent, she just struggles and doesn't know how much she wants to buy. Looking at Zhu Dagui, who was iron-faced, he hurriedly explained: "No, Boss Zhu, you misunderstood, I'm ashamed, although I want to build a house, I don't know how many bricks and tiles are used for a house." ”

Zhu Dagui listened not because of the price, and his expression was as usual, "Then how big is the room you prepare, I'll calculate it for you." ”

Li Yuqing was very grateful after hearing this, "I don't know how many green bricks are needed for one meter"

Zhu Dagui summed it up in his head, and added about 100 green bricks for loss, and told Li Yuqing the answer. As soon as Li Yuqing heard that one meter was a hundred, she couldn't help but sigh that there were really a lot of bricks used in a room. I calculated in my heart that if I want to build a house of 40 square meters, it will cost almost 7 or 8 taels of silver, not counting wages and tiles, no wonder ordinary people can't afford to build it.

After getting the answer, Li Yuqing calculated the silver in his family, and it was almost two hundred taels, which was almost enough to build a house. For a while, I felt that my speech was also stiff. "Boss Zhu, I want the bricks and tiles of ten houses, you see how much silver you need. ”

Zhu Dagui couldn't believe his ears a little, this little girl who was not well-dressed wanted so much, and she only remembered it when she calmed down. From the beginning to now, I have only been talking to her, when did such a young woman have such courage.

casually asked, "Girl, what about your family, can you decide so much." ”

Li Yuqing heard him ask about his family, and felt that he shouldn't believe that he could decide this matter, so he smiled at him, "I haven't told you yet, my parents died, and now I am in charge of the family." ”

Only then did Zhu Dagui react, no wonder such a young girl would come out alone. Jue himself provoked Li Yuqing's sadness, and he was very embarrassed. Said apologetically, "Girl, don't be angry, I don't know, so let's do it, it's too noisy outside, you can come into the house with me to talk."

Only then did Li Yuqing react, it turned out that they had been standing outside for so long, looking at Zhu Dagui with resentment, and the latter laughed embarrassedly.
