Pei Qin drew a screwdriver first, the iron head, the handle is wooden, and after the painting, he explained how to use it, "As long as you wear it according to a line of corn, you will wear it all." Thread a few rows on the corn cob and easily unscrew it with one more twist. ”

The mill owner nodded his head as he listened, his eyes shining with joy, "This thing is easy to make!" I'll be able to make one soon! ”

"Iron pillars! You go get the guy, make one now! The mother-in-law urged her son.

"Wait, it's easy. There's another one that's a little easier! Pei Qin stopped him.

Sun Tiezhu waited for her to continue painting.

The other one uses more wood, a thick long wooden board with grooves, dig a hole in the middle, install an iron screwdriver under the hole, and nail two wooden strips on the top of the long wooden board, "directly stuck on the edge of the big dustpan, and hold the corn cob and push it down the groove, which has the same function as the driver." You don't have to hold the corn cob in one hand and pick it up in the other, not to mention the effort, and it's easy to put it on your hands. ”

Sun Tiezhu couldn't help nodding, looking at Pei Qin's eyes full of praise, "If these two things are made, you don't have to work so hard to pick the corn cob!" Sometimes the corn cob is not dried, and it is all covered with blood blisters! ”

Siya was full of surprise, the eldest sister actually came up with such two powerful things, and she didn't say anything at home.

The reason why Pei Qin is looking for Sun Tiezhu is that he has lost his mill business, his family is in debt, and his life is difficult, and secondly, this grandmother-in-law and Sun Tiezhu are both honest and simple people, no matter how much money they make, at least people will not pit her like another mill shopkeeper.

Grandma Sun urged Sun Tiezhu to hurry up and make these two tools.

Sun Tiezhu was very quick, moved out the wood and tools, and said to Pei Qin embarrassedly, "I've only learned this carpenter's craft for more than half a year, and the things I make are shoddy."

"It's simple, it doesn't take much craftsmanship." Pei Qin said with a smile, "However, because things are simple, others can learn them." So you have to make more batches at a time so that you can sell them for money. ”

After all, Sun Tiezhu had opened a mill and understood this, "Then how can I calculate the money?" ”

"Don't worry about the money, you can sell one and divide me for a penny!" Pei Qin didn't ask for much, after all, she only had an idea, and the materials and craftsmanship were the same.

Siya frowned when she heard this, and pulled this Pei Qin outside, frowning her little face, "Is the eldest sister stupid?" If this thing is sold, it will definitely make money, one penny each, and only one or two pieces of silver will be sold for a thousand pieces. Where are you going to sell a thousand!? "I think she asked for too little money.

The grandmother-in-law and Sun Tiezhu in the house looked at the two sisters and looked at each other, both a little worried.

"It's like a one-shot deal, and you can't make money from this alone." Pei Qin patted her head after speaking, "Little girl, I think a lot, and I settle accounts quite quickly!" "Come back to the house.

Siya's little face was dark and displeased.

"Xiao Pei, this money," Grandma Sun looked at Pei Qin worriedly.

Seeing that she and Sun Tiezhu looked worried that she would not partner with them, Pei Qin waved his hand, "Just count it as a penny!" Wait until you sell the screwdriver before settling! ”

Sun Tiezhu hurriedly said, "Then I'll do it overnight!" Do more! "Sell more, he can make money! You will be able to pay back part of the money owed by the family.

"Good! That's it! We're going to sell the firewood and go home, so we won't stay long! Pei Qin nodded.

Grandma Sun looked at the two bundles of firewood that the two of them were carrying when they came, and called Pei Qin, "My family is just going to buy firewood, so sell it to us!" Whatever price you are given outside, I will also give you the price! ”

Pei Qin's eyes fell on the broken wood chips under Sun Tiezhu's handwork, there are carpenters in their family, and there will be no shortage of firewood.

"That bit of wood chips is not enough to burn, and my family also needs to buy firewood." Grandma Sun was busy explaining.

Pei Qin responded happily, someone bought it, and she didn't bother to carry it out and sell it along the street.

Grandma Sun quickly took out six yuan, and there were two white-flour buns, "You came out to chop wood so early, I'm afraid you haven't eaten, you should be hungry." These two steamed buns are for you to eat! ”

The four girls stretched out their hands to take it, and they would only eat white flour buns for a few days during the Chinese New Year.

Pei Qin's eyes flashed when she looked at the six pennies, yesterday the two bundles of firewood for that person were only six cents, she couldn't give it at all, and the four cents were up to the sky. After thinking about the Fang family at home, he grabbed the white-flour bun with a smile, and only took four pieces of money, "Mother-in-law!" These two bundles of firewood and four pennies are up to the sky, I will take as much as I want, and I can't take more! ”

"You child" Grandma Sun insisted on letting her take it, saying that others sold it at this price.

Pei Qin waved his hand and came out.

Siya's little face pulled the elder, and she walked out of Taiping Town all the time, still ugly, complaining to Pei Qin, "Why don't you want the extra two pennies that people give!" Don't you know how hard it is to make money!? ”

Pei Qin looked at her deeply, "If I want to be greedy for two more cents, they may miss ten more cents when I turn around." I didn't keep an eye on how many screws were sold. Being a man is not only about money, but also about sincerity in partnership! ”

Siya didn't understand what she said, and she knew that because she made two pennies less, she almost didn't even have two white-flour buns.

Pei Qin didn't say anything more, went up the mountain with her, rubbed a bunch of leaves, cut some branches, and went home.

Siya carried two white-flour buns, looked at the firewood on her back, and couldn't help worrying, "Come out in the morning, just order something like this, and you will be scolded again when you go home!" ”

Pei Qin glanced at her.

When she got home, the family looked at her as if she had gone out to do something.

Fang Shi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly came up to pick up the firewood on Pei Qin's back.

Pei Wenbo had an angry little face and pointed at Pei Qin, "Send me home, and cut such a little firewood outside in the morning, dare you say that you are not going to meet your lover!?" After speaking, he saw Pei Qin's eyes looking over, and hurriedly hid behind Chen.

Pei Qin is not a violent maniac, he was afraid when he saw that he had been beaten once, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him, and sent the firewood to the backyard shed.

Zhu shouted that the firewood was enough, and did not let Pei Qin go out again, and let her pick corn at home.

Pei Qin just waited for Sun Tiezhu's letter now, ate peacefully, and helped Fang's family pick corn at home.

Pei Qin and Fang's took turns beating the sack with sticks, pouring the pounded corn into the big dustpan, and the third and fourth ya, together with Pei Wendong, also squatted aside to pick the corn.

My mother has a few afternoons, which is more corn than the whole family picks in three days.

Chen also snorted and was beaten badly, and he didn't do any work in the house. Zhu only turned over the corn that had been dried.

Pei Qin earned four yuan, and there will be a lot of income in the future, and he is in a very good mood, without Zhu and Chen's eyesore, he has special strength and enthusiasm to work in the afternoon.

But the mood was shattered as evening approached.

The eldest uncle of the old Pei family, Pei Boss, Pei Houli is back.
