Chapter 107: Goodbye Miss Zhang
readx;
I don't know what Tian Youjin said, in short, Li is relatively rational, but his body is weaker, and he doesn't react too excitedly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Tian Miao looked up at the overcast weather and felt a little depressed in her heart.
"Oh, look at it like this, it's going to rain heavily." Tian Zhancai said beside her.
"Today is the day when the Zhang family picks up the goods, and if it rains, it will not be very lucky." Tian Youjin said with some worry.
"If it rains, they won't come, but if they do, let them stay at our house and wait for the rain to stop before leaving." Tian Miao's words, Steward Liu heard them clearly, and immediately calculated in his heart how to arrange them if someone came.
"Alright, whether they come or not, let's go to the workshop and wait." Tian Zhancai said and took the lead towards the gate.
When they arrived at the workshop, they saw Uncle Jiang explaining something to Da Zhuang, and the two of them were very engaged, and they didn't even notice the people who came in.
"Do you understand this time?" Uncle Jiang is quite patient with Da Zhuang.
"Understood, go find a piece of wood in a moment and try it." Da Zhuang said happily, and when he looked up and saw Tian Miao and them, he hurriedly said hello.
Master Jiang listened to Da Zhuang's mouth, only to find that the owner was coming, and he was also busy greeting, and after a period of salutation, he sat down to talk.
"Master Jiang, I heard that some villagers came to beg you to apprentice, but you sent them all? I don't know if it's because they don't have good qualifications, or because of something else? Tian Miao wanted to ask before, but he never poured out his efforts.
"No, who knows if they'll work? The owner didn't speak, how can I make my own decisions? Master Jiang said bluntly that he thought he was a member of the owner's family, so everything had to be said by the owner.
"Hey, you can make your own decisions about this matter, and when you see that good seedling, you will happily accept it." Tian Zhancai is really convinced, this Master Jiang's craftsmanship is not said, but in other aspects, it is a little different from ordinary people.
"Sister Miao, do we have to recruit some more people in our workshop?" Da Zhuang saw that Tian Miao was in a good mood and asked cautiously.
"Of course, but I haven't found the right person yet, what do you think?" Tian Miao found that since he sent Da Zhuang out to learn art, this kid has matured a lot, it seems that this person just has to go out to practice.
"I think so, if you find the master who is successful, it will be difficult to manage, so I think we can take something and nothing, it is like being an apprentice.
Let each of them do the same, so that they can get started quickly, and they are not afraid that they will run away after they have learned. Tian Dazhuang said with some apprehension.
"This method is good, haha, good boy, it seems that you have really gained a lot of insight with your Uncle Jiang." When Tian Zhancai heard this, he immediately laughed happily.
"I didn't teach it, it was what he thought of himself." Uncle Jiang opened his mouth without being stunned, and Tian Zhancai choked up all of a sudden
Tian Miao saw her grandfather's expression, she almost didn't laugh out loud, and hurriedly spoke to ease the atmosphere.
"This is feasible, Da Zhuang, since you brought up this matter, then you will handle it, and their wages will be set by Uncle Jiang." Tian Miao's words made Da Zhuang very happy, now he wants a cow, whoever wants to come in the village has to be decided by him, and the power is great.
"I can't make up my mind, you can say it yourself." Uncle Jiang was straight-hearted, he felt that he couldn't say much about this kind of thing.
"When those people are recruited, you can see what kind of work they do, and when the time comes, I will divide them into three ranks. It's up to you to grade them, and if they do a good job, they will take more, and if they don't do a good job, let them go home. Tian Miao was not angry, she knew Master Jiang's temperament too well.
Communicating with him is straightforward, don't think too much, for example, you invite him to dinner. If he wanted to go, he would say go. But if he doesn't want to go, he will just say no, and he will never explain the drawing.
"Okay." Master Jiang understood what Tian Miao meant, so he nodded.
"Miss, the people of the Zhang family are here, and I heard from his family that his young lady came in person." The little guy Dongzi is the youngest of the four, but he is the most clever.
He is not at all like his father Zhu Lao Liu, Zhu Lao Liu is a very wooden person, in Fu's words, that person, Taimu can't press a fart.
Dongzi has more places like his mother Zhou, but she is more shrewd than her, and now she is young, and she will be a good seedling in time.
"Then invite them to the living room, it's not good for Miss Zhang to come into our messy workshop." Tian Miao just said this, and did not mean to accuse.
"This workshop is not messy, everything is carefully placed by us." Master Jiang said with some dissatisfaction.
"Huh?" Tian Miao was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to speak, but it was Tian Youjin who spoke.
"Haha, Brother Jiang, you are too careful, Miao Er didn't mean that, your workshop is the most regular workshop I have ever seen." Tian Youjin smiled and patted Master Jiang's shoulder.
Tian Zhancai glanced at Tian Miao, and the two also looked at each other and smiled, such an upright person can live safely to be in his forties, which can be regarded as a miracle.
The Zhang family came to pull the furniture this time, so there were more than a dozen flatbed carriages alone, not counting the carriages with sheds that Miss Zhang and others sat on.
"I don't know that Miss Zhang came in person, and I missed the distance, so I ask Miss Zhang to forgive me." Tian Miao stepped forward to greet Miss Zhang.
"Tian Dongjia is too polite, although you and I have just known each other, but in my heart, I regard you as a friend." Miss Zhang said softly, she still wears that long hat today.
Seeing her dress, Tian Miao panicked for her, so she hurriedly let her go to the living room, while Tian Zhancai and Tian Youjin and other men stayed in the courtyard, waiting for the two of them to negotiate a good job.
"In this kind of sultry weather, Miss Zhang still came in person, which is really hard." Tian Miao said politely.
At this time, Xiaomei put the blueberry soup that had been prepared a long time ago, Tian Miao's oral method, and made by the cooks, on the few sons next to Miss Zhang and Tian Miao.
"What is this?" Miss Zhang liked the beautiful color very much, although she hadn't drunk it yet, she could smell a rich fragrance
"This is our homemade blueberry soup, Miss drink it, it's very refreshing to cool off." Tian Miao explained with a smile.
"Well, it's really delicious, sweet and sour, and it has a very special taste." After Miss Zhang took a sip, she couldn't help but take two sips in a row.
"This is picked by the family in the mountains, and it tastes no worse than those plum soups, if Miss likes it, I'll give you some later, and when you go back, just put it in the well and keep it, don't use ice."
If this soup is too cold, it will become astringent, and besides, like us, it is better to drink less cold things. Tian Miao said politely.
"Then I'll thank you in advance for your kindness, and on my wedding day, you must come, I don't have many friends, I hope we will move around more in the future." Miss Zhang has heard too much about Tian Miao, whether it is curiosity or something else, she hopes to become friends with Tian Miao.
The more useful friends like this, the more she has, the better, handing over Tian Miao, but it is much more practical than handing over those in the town, the so-called daughters of everyone.
"Haha, Miss Zhang's wedding, how can I not go, don't worry, I will definitely dress up, as long as you don't dislike me." Tian Miao originally wanted to have a good relationship with her, besides, if she didn't go, how could she take the opportunity to pull business for her workshop?
Now the workshop is full of casual work, almost two or three villages around here, so Tian Miao wants to take advantage of Miss Zhang's wedding to spread the reputation of her workshop.
"Then I'll wait to see if you're really dirty?" Miss Zhang chuckled, to be honest, she really couldn't see the rustic spirit of the village girl from Tian Miao.
Although she is wearing just ordinary cotton, it gives people a very comfortable feeling, and makes people know for the first time that in addition to being beautiful, they can also wear their own charm.
"Miss, will you come with me to see the furniture?" When Tian Miao saw Xiaomei giving her a look, she knew that the workshop was ready, and she could let Miss Zhang personally go over to inspect the goods.
"It's good to let someone take a look, I'll come here in person just to see you." Miss Zhang said with a smile.
"How can the next person see what? If there is anything dissatisfied, let's change it here, or it will be troublesome to go back and forth. Tian Miao knew that Miss Zhang was just polite, so she took the lead in getting up and making a gesture of invitation for her.
"You, it's just too serious, then go and see." Miss Zhang looked like she couldn't do anything.
When they came to the courtyard of the workshop, all kinds of furniture were neatly arranged in rows. Miss Zhang said it openly just now, but when she watched it, it was very detailed, and she didn't let go of even a little detail.
Tian Miao saw her like this, and she was very glad that she came to test it herself, otherwise, there might be some trouble.
"Miss, Steward Liu sent someone to say that the kitchen is ready, and asked where to set the table?" Xiaomei cautiously approached Tian Miao's side.
"Let them wait first, it depends on what Miss Zhang means." After Tian Miao gave the order, she didn't move, but kept it as it was, watching Miss Zhang busy there from a distance.
"Tian Dongjia, can you please come over for a moment?" Miss Zhang got up and beckoned to Tian Miao.
"Look at what Miss said, why can't I come over, what's wrong?" Tian Miao saw that her expression didn't look like displeasure, so she hurriedly came to her side.
"What is this? I don't think there was such a thing
。 Miss Zhang pointed to a chest of drawers and said.
"This is a chest of drawers, I gave it to you, and you are the first guest of our workshop, of course you have to show something." Tian Miao said with a smile that she didn't come over just now because she didn't want to disturb Miss Zhang.
If she followed, how could people be embarrassed to check carefully?
"You're such a caring person, and you're really a whimsical idea, and it's beautiful and practical to stack five drawers together.
I like this very much, thank you for your kindness, there will be any good things in the future, but don't forget me, rest assured that I won't ask you for nothing. "Miss Zhang is in a good mood.
These furniture made her very satisfied, not only the novelty, but even the craftsmanship did not have to be said, it seems that Tian Miao is not false at all, her master is really not mediocre.
"Miss is satisfied, our family's business will depend on Miss's help in the future." Tian Miao said politely.
"Don't worry, I will try my best to help you attract business, but if anyone wants to make the same furniture as me, this ......" Miss Zhang deliberately did not finish her words.
"This young lady, please rest assured, everyone's family is different, so this style will also change a little.
Besides, in the entire Qiaotou Town, there are few who can afford such a high price. Even if anyone wants to be like you, they have to have so much financial resources, and the furniture produced by our workshop is not cheap. Tian Miao was telling the truth.
Miss Zhang ordered all the most expensive and best furniture in their workshop, and Tian Miao certainly had to make good use of this celebrity effect.
Don't make a sky-high price for this set of furniture, and I'm sorry for Miss Zhang's name, isn't it?
"You are really a good businessman, and I hope that in the future, we will have the opportunity to do something together." Miss Zhang handed an olive branch to Tian Miao.
"Haha, this is indefinite, the mountains and rivers meet, who knows what the future will be?" Tian Miao replied paradoxically.
"Then wait for the meeting, I'm satisfied with these." Miss Zhang glanced at the girl ring beside her as she spoke, and the girl immediately took out a full purse and handed it to Xiaomei's hand.
"Miss Zhang, what does this mean?" Tian Miao saw Xiaomei looking at her, but she didn't say anything, but asked Miss Zhang rhetorically.
"You also said that this set of furniture is expensive, I naturally can't take too much advantage of you, half less than others, it's already a big advantage for me." Miss Zhang smiled and said what she meant.
"Miss Zhang is really a compassionate person, since this is the case, then I will accept it with a cheeky face, as long as it is set by Miss in the future, it will all be half the price of others." As soon as Tian Miao's words came out, Xiaomei accepted the heavy purse.
Miss Zhang saw that Tian Miao understood what she meant, and she was very happy, she just likes to deal with smart people, and she is not tired and worry-free.
"Then we'll go back, remember to come earlier that day." Miss Zhang said that she was about to leave.
"After the business is over, are we gossiping, how can there be a reason not to eat when this friend meets? I prepared some mountain specialties, which are not expensive things, but just fresh food. I also hope that Miss can give me this face, so that Miss can go on the road on an empty stomach at this hour, I really can't get over it. Tian Miao really kept her to eat, but those dishes were specially prepared for her.
"Look at what you said, I have to stay if I don't stay, then disturb the house
。 Miss Zhang could see her sincerity, and she wanted to be good friends with her, so she didn't insist.
Tian Miao took Miss Zhang to the back of the workshop, the courtyard where she planned to make a jade workshop, and soon Steward Liu took the people of the family to set up a table of sumptuous wine and food in the courtyard.
"Miss, can I take the subordinates of Zhang's Mansion to set up a table in the courtyard of the workshop?" Steward Liu asked what Tian Miao meant.
"Okay, you go and arrange it, just don't let them drink, there's still work on this." Tian Miao nodded, it was best for Steward Liu to arrange it this way.
Steward Liu nodded and left, and when Miss Zhang saw that the dishes on the table were all mountain goods, she only recognized one or two.
"Miss Zhang, these are all produced in our mountains, and now is the time to eat these, all of them are fresh." Tian Miao knew that ordinary wealthy families disdained to eat these.
"I really don't know much about mountain goods." Miss Zhang was a little less interested.
"Miss doesn't know, these mountain goods are a collection of the essence of the sun and the moon, like this one that looks like a monkey's head, called lion's mane mushroom, it has the effect of helping digestion.
I heard that eating it helps to delay aging, and it is most suitable for the elderly with appetite problems, that is, no one knows about it here, if this is in the capital, it is a good thing worth a thousand gold. Tian Miao saw Miss Zhang's displeasure and introduced it unhurriedly.
"If you hadn't said it, I really didn't know about it, I wouldn't have thought that there would be such a treasure among these mountain goods?" Miss Zhang was really surprised, she couldn't imagine that this mountain goods that only poor people would eat also had such good things.
"Actually, this mountain goods are treasures, but not many people know about it, if it weren't for my sister following the divine medicine to learn medical skills, we, who were born and raised in the mountains, would not know at all." Tian Miao said with a smile.
"So what is this? What are its effects? When Miss Zhang heard her say this, she immediately became interested.
"This is vinegar pepper black fungus, you eat it, this black fungus is amazing, it's known as vegetarian meat.
Not only does it taste good, but it can also help people expel the viciousness in their bodies, and I heard that it also has the effect of nourishing blood. Tian Miao used chopsticks to put a black fungus on Miss Zhang's plate.
"Well, it's delicious, moderately sour and spicy, and it's very strong." Miss Zhang tasted it and immediately fell in love with this black fungus.
Tian Miao saw that she had let go of her prejudices, and the other dishes were not too detailed, because she knew that it was useless to say too much, and it would be good for Miss Zhang to remember the two.
After a meal, Miss Zhang ate very happily, this time the mountain food feast really surprised her, and at the same time, an idea also came to her mind.
"Tian Miao, we're friends, right?" Miss Zhang asked with a smile.
"That's natural, we're friends." Tian Miao knew that her plan had succeeded.
"Since we're friends, then I have something to say." Miss Zhang said with a smile that she likes to chat with Tian Miao very much, she is very comfortable and straightforward, and there is no need to detour.
"Miss Zhang, people in our village speak straightforwardly, you can just say anything you want." Although Tian Miao guessed seven, seven, eight or eight in her heart, she didn't hear her say it herself, and she still couldn't do it.
"I think this mountain goods is a good livelihood, are you interested, let's do something together?" Miss Zhang said tentatively
"Miss Zhang is interested in mountain goods? That's okay, but most people think it's something that doesn't go on the table.
Even if we open a shop, there will not be many customers who come to the door, rich people will not come, and poor people will not come. Tian Miao had an embarrassed expression.
"Huh? That's just as well. "Miss Zhang also thinks it is reasonable when she hears it, isn't she an example?
"Unless everyone knows the benefits of this mountain goods, otherwise, everything will be in vain." Tian Miao's words made Miss Zhang's eyes light up.
"Tian Miao has heard that you are very smart, come up with a good way, don't worry, let's do this. You came up with ideas, I contrived, and I earned half of the silver. Miss Zhang said generously.
The husband she married was not as good as her brothers-in-law, which made her very dissatisfied, so she wanted to do something for herself, not to mention how much she earned, but she was better than her sisters, and she could win back some face.
"I don't know much about our Qiaotou Town, I don't know how many rich people there are in this town?" Tian Miao really didn't know much about it.
"There are not too many landowners, but there are a lot of nobles who come here every year, and half of the mansions in our Qiaotou Town are the courtyards of the nobles outside.
In the summer, they often come to escape the heat, and when the autumn comes, they all leave. In Qiaonan of Qiaotou Town, the houses there are all nobles in the capital. Miss Zhang was a little surprised, how could Tian Miao not know about this thing that the whole town knew.
"In this way, our family is an ordinary farmer, and this is the first time I know about this." Tian Miao said with some embarrassment.
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Is it related to what we're talking about? "Although Miss Zhang has no experience in business, she is also a smart person.
"That's better, we can open a shop specially prepared for those nobles, as long as they recognize our things.
Then everyone else will admit it, at this time, let's open a shop specializing in selling mountain goods, isn't that a prosperous business? "Tian Miao didn't come out of the moment.
At the beginning, the village chief's family didn't have a mountain goods business, so she thought of this method, but she and Bai Yiran had nothing to do with those so-called dignitaries.
Now that there is Miss Zhang, of course she has to make good use of it, although the Zhang family is not a big family, but it also occupies the name of the richest man in Qiaotou Town.
"What kind of shop?" Miss Zhang was so curious.
"I haven't thought about this yet, after you get married, let's talk about it in detail, it just so happens that I can think about it more thoroughly." Tian Miao will not say it all at once, for this economically powerful Miss Zhang, Tian Miao has to take precautions.
"You have to take it seriously, I really want to work with you, don't let me down." When Miss Zhang was leaving, she was still uneasy and told again.
Of course, Tian Miao agreed, she cooperated with Miss Zhang, how could she not think about it? Marrying others is not Tian Miao's hobby, or everyone earns money, which is in line with their own temperament.
