Chapter 114: Upstart
During the day the next day, Jiang Ping, as usual, built a sea yellow circle chair in the courtyard of Huanhua Lane. After this period of hard work, the materials needed for the circle chair have been basically prepared, and the next thing to do is to splice these basically shaped wood together to make a complete circle chair.
Of course, this process is not easy, and the connection between wood and wood of honest furniture depends on tenons. Nowadays, very few carpenters use this method, and most furniture is fixed with nails or screws that are quick and easy.
However, Jiang Ping wanted to make a circle chair in the style of the Ming Dynasty, of course, he must not use those things. Otherwise, don't talk about insiders, even a layman who doesn't know anything can see at a glance that this pair of circle chairs is a fake.
It took Jiang Ping a whole morning to open a dozen mortise. According to Jiang Ping's design drawing, there are dozens of tenon holes in a circle chair, which is one of the reasons why it takes so much time to build this set of circle chairs.
Although Jiang Ping was full of energy, his stomach was protesting. After all, Jiang Ping hadn't eaten since morning. He was still working, and he was in his youth with a particularly good appetite, and his stomach would rumble when it was time to eat. So Jiang Ping left the small courtyard and planned to go to a small restaurant near Huanhua Lane to have something to eat.
The small restaurant is not far away, and Jiang Ping did not ride a bicycle, but planned to walk there. Huanhua Lane is lined with lush trees that block out the scorching sun, and even in the middle of summer, you won't feel very hot when walking in the shade.
Jiang Ping was walking well, and a Land Rover suddenly came from behind at high speed. Huanhua Lane is not wide, and this Land Rover itself is relatively wide, almost sticking to Jiang Ping and driving past, only a little bit will hit him. What's even more infuriating is that the driver knew that it was dangerous to do so, but he didn't slow down when he passed Jiang Ping, as if he didn't care about the lives of others.
The Land Rover drove forward for a short while, then suddenly leaned to the side of the street and stopped. Although the situation was dangerous, the driver didn't care. The two men got out of the car casually, without even looking at Jiang Ping behind them.
The other party's attitude made Jiang Ping a little unhappy, and he went on a rampage just by driving a good car, and he looked like no one was in his eyes, which was completely the style of a nouveau riche.
However, Jiang Ping is not a hot-blooded teenager, and he knows that with his current situation, it is really better to have more than one thing. At the moment, it is still the most important thing to earn medical expenses for my sister, and there is no need to conflict with people over such trivial matters. So Jiang Ping just walked forward silently, and had no intention of theorizing with the other party at all.
The two men in the car stood in the middle of Huanhua Alley in a big way, looking at the row of houses with small courtyards on the side of the street, their faces showing satisfaction.
Among them, the fat man with a big belly nodded again and again, and then said to the man next to him: "The environment here is really good, but these yards are a little smaller." You can find a way to buy at least three connected courtyards, and then completely renovate them and connect them into one! As long as I come to Suzhou City in the future, I will have a place to stay!"
The man who followed the fat man hurriedly used a small notebook to write down these words, and then reminded in a low voice: "Boss, it's not easy to buy three adjacent yards, it doesn't have to be such a coincidence, and the three families that happen to be connected are willing to sell it." ”
"What's so difficult?!" The fat man frowned dissatisfiedly and said, "Isn't it just about money! I'm not afraid of extra money, as long as I can buy a yard, the price is as easy as the other party!"
"Sure enough, it's the nouveau riche. Jiang Ping was far away, and he smelled the copper smell on the fat man's body. Nouveau riche like this is very low, as if he thinks that a few stinky money will be great, no wonder he drove like that just now.
At this moment, a child staggered out of the yard next to it. Perhaps it was the negligence of the adults, and the child came to the street alone. The child was very young, stumbling when he walked, and it seemed that it had not been long since he had learned to walk.
When the child saw a Land Rover parked not far away, he immediately ran over happily, banging on the car door while saying vaguely: "Che Che ...... Cheche!"
Seeing the child taking pictures of his car, the fat man immediately frowned and shouted: "Whose bear child, why is no one cared about it? Do you know how expensive Lao Tzu's car is? Can you poor ghosts afford to pay for the damage?!"
In fact, how much strength can a child who can just walk have, and how can he break the car? This fat man is making such a fuss, it is clear that the nouveau riche has a stinky temper attack, and he looks down on the children of poor families.
Seeing that the boss was angry, the follower didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly rushed to the side of the car and yelled at the child: "Dead child, stop it!"
The kid was just over a year old, and he couldn't even speak, how could he understand the words of his attendant, but he was more energetic. Now the attendant became angry, grabbed the child's little arm and forced, and the child immediately sat on the ground. The child was frightened and immediately began to cry "wow".
The fat man didn't think there was anything wrong with the attendant treating the child like this, and the child's crying upset him, so he shouted in a loud voice: "What kind of bear child is this, I don't know how expensive Lao Tzu's car is, and who did you pay for?
Looking at the ugly face of this fat man, Jiang Ping couldn't help but sneer secretly. The face of this kind of guy is really hateful, and people can't like it at all.
However, Jiang Ping had no intention of meddling. This place is very close to the child's house, as long as you wait a little longer, there will definitely be adults coming out, and there is no need for Jiang Ping to come out. In fact, Jiang Ping felt that the adults of the child's family were also at fault, how could such a young child be allowed to go out on the street alone? Fortunately, the Land Rover had stopped, and if it happened to run into the Land Rover driving over, it might cause an even greater tragedy.
Jiang Ping thought so in his heart, and at the same time bypassed the Land Rover and the fat man who was scolding, and continued to walk forward. And the fat man was still scolding in the back, and the scolding was mixed with the cry of the child, which destroyed the usual tranquility of Huanhua Lane.
Jiang Ping, who was not far away in charge of this matter, quickened his pace and walked forward, and in a few steps he reached a corner of Huanhua Lane. He had just walked around the corner when he heard a familiar voice coming from behind: "What are you doing, how can two adults bully a child!?"
This voice made Jiang Ping pause, at first he wanted to continue walking, but after hesitating for a moment, he still shook his head and said: "This stupid girl will definitely reason with the other party, I can't ignore this matter!"
Thinking like this, Jiang Ping returned to the corner, quietly poked his head out to look forward, and immediately saw Zhang Chenlin holding the child in his arms and confronting the fat man and his followers.
