Chapter 254: Liao Lin's Troubles
When Third Uncle Wang heard Erya say this, his restless heart finally settled down. This was the most silver he had ever spent on running an independent businessman, and he bought the coral tree for two hundred taels of silver, but his niece and daughter-in-law gave it to his grandfather. There were also a lot of other formed and unformed corals, and together with broken corals that people couldn't sell before, he spent a total of more than five hundred taels of silver to cover them all.
If someone else followed such a small pearl, someone would stop him from spending money on this useless, small pearl like a grain of rice. I originally wanted to leave a favor and buy a good one for the next time, but I didn't expect that my nephew and daughter-in-law not only did not blame myself but said that I did a good job, but also let these things that others don't want to make profits.
The sea vegetables and fruits were all delivered by the fishermen, and they were loaded into the car directly. Originally, he wanted to keep it for himself or sell it or give it away, which he deserved. But as soon as the words came out, he was scolded by his grandfather: "I see that you have talked about war in this life, such a little food and drink can make you blind, what do you want to do in the future?" You give all the things to Xiaohu's daughter-in-law, and you are not allowed to leave a grain of sand, as for how she wants to arrange, she will definitely understand better than you! ”
Uncle Wang looked at Erya, who counted and packed up the goods, and remembered his grandfather's disappointment with him last night, and his heart was filled with a sour taste. Although this nephew and daughter-in-law is a woman, she is indeed much more particular than a big man like herself! If he is reluctant to give the best and most valuable coral trees on this trip to others, even if it is his own grandfather, he will definitely not be reluctant. It was when he sighed. Erya's actions made him even more ashamed.
Erya opened all the small pearls and looked at them, and found that they were all about the same, and there was nothing big to pick out. took out one of the boxes and handed it to Uncle Wang, saying, "Keep this for the third aunt, and when I design the use of these small pearls, let the third aunt learn to make it." This box of pearls is well done, if you don't waste it, the profits you get, the marriage of the two cousins and the dowry of the little cousin. It is estimated that they are more than enough. ”
Third Uncle Wang really couldn't sit still now, even if he knew that Erya wouldn't know that he had wanted to leave those sea vegetables privately, but he still felt empty-hearted. Now their royal son is married, and their daughter is married. It's not like before a few taels of silver or even dozens of catties of rice were sent away. Now whoever has a son who has not spent a hundred taels of silver to marry is embarrassed to say that it is known, and whose daughter does not have a dowry of one hundred taels of silver, the dowry is not good for people to open up when relatives add makeup.
Since Erya said that this box is enough for him to marry his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, it means that this can be worth hundreds of taels of silver if used well. Now he really feels hot! Take it. Panic with shame. Don't accept it. I really don't want to push it out. Ay! Take it! This is given by the nephew and daughter-in-law, our grandfather shouldn't scold himself for being shallow!?
Their Wangjiazhuang, in the eyes of others, may be a house built a little better than others' homes, and there is definitely no silver inside. This matter is only known to Xiaohu and the family members who have received their fur for a few years and the heads of each family, and one of them knows that it is the grandfather who keeps, settles, and settles accounts for each family.
Each of them has rabbits and yellow wolves. The purchase price of a rabbit in Xiaohu's house is 100 Wen, although it is not expensive, but the rabbit breeds quickly, and it can be out of a column in three or four months. A large number of people can produce five or six hundred in one column, and the least people can produce a hundred.
The yellow wolf is slow to reproduce and is picky about eating. There must be meat feed to follow, but the purchase price of Xiaohu's family is high, and one can get a high price of one or two silver. Therefore, in the two or three years before the drought, when the family settled the accounts at the end of the year, there was no income less than 100 taels.
The family income is more, and the marriage aspect is more atmospheric. If there is a strong mother-in-law who loves to compare, it will be even more exaggerated to spend money. If you marry or marry now, those who are less than 100 taels of silver will be talked about in private.
I won't say much about Wangjiazhuang's wedding money.
After Erya and Third Uncle Wang handed over the goods, they let the third uncle take back the ones that were given to the grandfather, the grandmother, the third uncle, or the ones assigned by the grandfather. She reclassified the goods at home and sent them to the basement.
Although the goods cost a lot of money this time, Er Ya was happier than any time. The third uncle is really in the seafood business this time, and those miscellaneous things in the past are not as good as even asking for food, and she can't earn much money to subsidize the car and horse fares and road expenses, and she has to pay it upside down every year.
The reason why she is still willing to post money to the third uncle to continue to run and not stop this line is that maybe one day, the third uncle Wang will be able to connect with which maritime merchant and start a real seafood business. Nowadays, when I have a relationship with fishermen, although I don't have all the goods of the maritime merchants, but fortunately, the fishermen's things are cheaper.
The other one is the rubber he wants, and the third uncle has already inquired, a country not far from the sea, Siam has that kind of thing, but it is useless. So no one wanted to buy or sell that thing.
Bells and glass products are actually unheard of by all maritime merchants. Erya thought that maybe at this time, overseas scientists have not yet researched and manufactured it!
As for the gun, some people have seen it, but it is the fire gun they have here, and there is no pistol or rifle like the gusset, spring, and bullet fire that Er Ya said.
Erya was very depressed and stunned, it seemed that she had seen this world at least two or three hundred years ahead. The ones I knew should have appeared during the Qing Dynasty, but I can't wait to inquire around now, but it's not just a vain.
Which of these things can be made by himself, and which ones are beyond his power, Er Ya began to write down one by one with a pen seriously and emptied his head to recall the possibilities that he could create.
As long as the rubber is vulcanized with sulfur, it can be used, which is okay.
The clock is a reasonable and precise combination of how many gears, chains, and other small accessories are used. If you cooperate with a craftsman who knows how to do it, you may be able to figure it out.
Guns are easy to do. It's the bullet that makes the second girl blind, so let's put it in the ranks of 'no'!
Glass it! Erya only knows that the melting point of glass is much lower than that of ordinary substances, and it requires factors such as quartz minerals and gypsum, as well as strong plasticity, and the rest is not so detailed. But she thinks this can be pondered!
After thinking too much, Erya's head began to hurt again. Ay! Never mind! These are all for the future, take your time!
After the soap and soap were demolded, I tried it and it felt okay. Although it is not as good as what I used to buy in the mall. But at least it works, much more advanced than the cleaning products here. She thought about preparing more caustic soda and animal fat, ready to make soap and soap in large quantities.
Also, give them a name. Er Ya thought for a long time, and came up with the word transcendence, when customizing the mold, you must remember to let the master carve it in transcendence.
The boiler for ironsmithing has been put on trial for a few days, and then for two more days. Determine when it's safe, normal, and problem-free. It can be officially put into use.
On the side of the knitting machine, Mr. Jin personally made the crochet groove of zuò, and the old man made it very carefully and carefully, so it took so long to make two types of grooves. Erya asked them to cover the machine with a large oilcloth, move it to the vacant wing of Liao's shopkeeper's house, and teach Liao Lin and Yinhua to use the machine to weave wool, and let the two of them knit sweaters there full-time. One person is in charge of one model of machine.
Since Liao Lin's house was built, he asked the shopkeeper Liao to find someone to bring the letter to her mother's house. Her father and sister-in-law, brother and sister-in-law, and children have all come over. I don't know if my mother's side didn't get the letter or they have something, how long has it been, why has no one from my mother's family come over and no letter to bring back?
"Hey! If my father and mother come, help me bring Xiao Dongming, I can take measures to knit more clothes! "Every time Liao Lin uses the machine to weave clothes, at a critical juncture, Xiao Dongming will either wake up and scream, urine, or be hungry every time. Anyway, she was always interrupted, which made her very headache and irritable, and she always thought that it would be nice to have a relative to help her.
Yinhua has no burden weaving clothes in Liao Lin's house, the shoemaking workshop has already begun, and her mother has also begun to work. The stepfather and the elder brother had already gone to the owner's house to do business, and the younger brother was taken by the mother-in-law along with the children in the town. She went to the big canteen when she ate, and when she came back, she helped Liao Lin's bring one, and dinner would usually be sent over. Anyway, it's not in the hands of Yinhua! Because Er Ya specially asked the two of them to call it a day as soon as the sun turned gray, and they were not allowed to do anything again. Therefore, even if Shopkeeper Liao comes back at night, Yinhua will get off work immediately, and there is no need to worry about the inconvenience of working there.
Liao Lin's got the machine first and started to do it first, and the silver flower was made later, and the machine model of the silver flower was small. The thread used is also thin, but except for going back to the cafeteria to eat at noon, she usually has no chores, unlike Liao Lin, who is always disturbed by children. Therefore, she now weaves more finished products than Liao Lin's!
Everyone has the heart to admit defeat, and Liao Lin is no exception. That night, the shopkeeper Liao came back with the delivery carriage, and Liao Lin's first words were: "Daddy!" Why hasn't my mother's side come over yet? Did they not get the letter at all?! ”
Liao Chengzhi was also puzzled and said, "That's it! Supposedly they should have arrived a long time ago! Now there is nothing that cannot be left on the farm. What the hell is going on! Ming'er, I'll ask someone to help me ask! ”
Liao Linshi had a bitter face, "Hmm! Hurry up and ask what's going on! I'm waiting for my mother to come over to help me and help me bring Xiao Dongming. If my father and mother can get used to living here, I want to keep them and help me take care of the children, so I can do things in a down-to-earth manner. You said that the lady of the proprietor trusted us so much, put such an important machine in my house, and let me learn to use this machine, but I always tossed because of Dongming, and I couldn't do much, which was embarrassing. If it weren't for the fact that our new house was too far away from my mother-in-law's yard, I would have wanted to put the children in their place and watch them for me. ”
Liao Chengzhi knows that his daughter-in-law is the kind of person who 'if you treat me badly, I won't take care of you, if you treat me well, I will be doubly good to you'. Therefore, the lady of the owner is good to her, but because of the child, she can't work well to repay the lady of the owner, she must be very guilty in her heart. However, with his understanding of the owner's wife, his daughter-in-law really doesn't have to make herself so nervous.
He smiled and said to his daughter-in-law, "You! If you feel that you can't work wholeheartedly, and you are ashamed of the owner's lady, then you don't have to! The lady of the owner said that this batch of sweaters is not in a hurry, even if they are knitted, she will not take them to the market to sell. Therefore, you don't have to be in a hurry, do it slowly, do it seriously, and do things well, which is what the owner lady likes to see the most. (To be continued......)
