Chapter 12 Finding a Job
Phantom Night whispered, "Xiao Zong, stop talking nonsense! If you disturb Brother Yun, it will be bad...... When you do that kind of thing, if you get frightened, it hurts......"
Tianzong sweated.
Why does listening to the tone, Saya seems to be very experienced with that kind of thing?
Nestled in the quilt, Phantom Night frowned, with a worried face.
He said in his heart: Xiaozong, will you understand again? I have read Brother Yun's memories and know that Brother Yun has a dark side in his heart.
Brother Yun's dark side is Sister Tang......
Although Brother Yun smiled lightly during the day, like the morning sun, the dark side behind the sunlight was frozen for three feet, not a day's cold.
The misfortunes of the past and being seen by the beloved woman being played with without covering his clothes are the shadows that Brother Yun will never be able to shake.
If Brother Yun is hit again, this bottomless shadow is enough to devour Brother Yun's heart. At that time, Brother Yun will have a nervous breakdown......
This night, only Phantom Night stayed awake all night.
The next day, Yunhe, who had settled down, began to look for a job, and he first went to find Elder Maeber.
Mabel told him that the easiest job to find in Fenglai Valley was mining, because there was a silver mine in Fenglai Valley. More than ninety percent of the men in the village are engaged in mining.
Almost everyone in Fenglai Valley wears silver jewelry, also because of the abundance of silver mines here.
Mining?Yunhe sweated.
Thinking that at the beginning, as a prince, he had sworn brothers with several kings of neighboring countries, and he had countless high-grade amethyst veins under his banner, and he had never done such a thing as mining. Now that the tiger has fallen in Pingyang, do you really have to start from this kind of lowly work?
Seeing Yunhe's embarrassed expression, Mei Bo smiled and said, "Young man, it seems that you used to be a pampered lord and never did this kind of work, right? And your brother, who looks thinner than you, is not the material for such a thing. ”
Yun He smiled awkwardly: "Mei Bo, don't the men of Fenglai Valley have a second career?"
Mei Bo said: "As you can see, every family has a field and land, and the crops can basically be self-sufficient, even if you grow melons and vegetables, you can't sell them for much money." Only by exchanging the mined silver and stone with the merchants can we obtain supreme coins and exchange them for other daily necessities with the people in the city. ”
Yun He felt strange again in his heart!
Since there is a silver mine like this, it should be able to drive the economy of Fenglai Valley, why are the people here still very poor and can't even buy the qualifications to enter the city?
Also, Yunhe saw that most of the silver jewelry worn by the people in the village was of very low grade, and the craftsmanship was also very poor, which was not at all like what the place of origin should be.
So Yun He asked curiously: "Mei Bo, why don't you process these quarried rough stones yourself and sell them? A processed silver jewelry will definitely be more valuable than silver stone." ”
Mei Bo said helplessly: "Young man, you don't know, our Fenglai Valley is very backward, and we don't have the technology to refine the silver element at all. And even if we have this technology, the impurities discharged during the refining process will pollute the environment, and we will not be able to grow crops on this land. We also don't have the ability to protect the silver element, and it is estimated that once the precious sterling silver is refined, those bandits will come and rob it. And the rough of silver was sold to merchants, and he had a great background, and his goods thieves generally did not dare to touch. ”
"I see. Yunhe finally understood, and then asked, "Mei Bo, which merchant did the silver stone of Fenglai Valley sell to?"
Mabel replied: "Du Boming, he has contracted our silver mine in Fenglai Valley. Without him, our life in Fenglai Valley would be even more difficult. ”
A flash of inspiration flashed in Yunhe's mind, and he said with a smile: "Mei Bo, I don't know how often Boss Du comes to Fenglai Valley?"
"At the end of every month, Boss Du will come by boat from upstream to inspect the progress of the silver mine, count the days, and he will come in a few days," said Mei Bo. ”
Yunhe said to Mei Bo: "Mei Bo, I want to meet with Boss Du, please help me introduce Boss Du when you come here next time." If this can be done, I will be able to save enough money for our family of three to go to the city at once. ”
Seeing Yunhe's confident appearance, it seemed that he had thought of a way to make money.
Yunhe has outstanding appearance, elegant temperament, and decent conversation, taking him with him will only give him a long face, even if he meets Boss Du, he will not let himself be rude, but when the time comes, he will also find someone who can help him, so it is better to be a favor and see how far Yunhe can play.
Mei Bo had a good impression of Yunhe, so he almost didn't have to think about it, so he directly agreed: "Okay! Although I will help you make arrangements, you must listen to my orders at that time, and do not act without authorization." ”
Yunhe didn't expect Mei Bo to agree so easily, and said gratefully, "Mei Bo, thank you." ”
So, Yunhe said goodbye to Mabel and returned to his residence. He asked Tang Zixi and Phantom Night to find a way to find pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from the village, and for the next few days, Yunhe didn't go out, locked himself in his room, and began to concentrate on painting, and he didn't know what he was painting.
It was three days before he pushed the door open.
"Xiao Yunhe, come and eat something. "Tang Zixi and Phantom Night have already arranged a table of food.
In the past few days of Yunhe retreat and painting, Tang Zixi was not idle, she went to the mountains to pick some medicinal herbs and sell them in the village market, and used the money to buy vegetables and rice. The wood ornaments carved by Phantom Night are also very popular, and the newly added furniture at home is bought with the money saved by Phantom Night.
After completing some works that can be handled, Yunhe is also in a very good mood, and now he is waiting for Boss Du to come.
As soon as she picked up the dishes and chopsticks, Jiang Lili from the neighbor's house came running over again.
"Brother Yun, I finally saw you! You locked yourself in your room for two days, I miss you so much! Look at what I brought you? This is a long-life lock, which can keep you safe. Jiang Lili took out a silver ornament and handed it to Yunhe impatiently.
Tang Zixi was already so angry that she was about to smoke! Ya, I knew that this was the case, and I should lock the door when eating, which was really disappointing.
Also, this girl actually gave her little husband a lock in front of herself, did she want to lock her little husband by her side? If the little husband accepted it, it would be a token of love.
With the lessons of the past, where does Yunhe dare to pick it up? Goddess Xixi is still standing by and staring!
Yunhe hurriedly smiled and said, "Lily, I appreciate your kindness, I already feel very fortunate to have such a warm neighbor as you." But I can't take anything of such a precious price. You should leave it to your future husband!"
Jiang Lili couldn't laugh anymore.
The meaning of Yunhe's words is already obvious, he only regards himself as a neighbor, and he has no intention of marrying himself......
Jiang Lili was embarrassed and said with red eyes: "Brother Yun, our Fenglai Valley is rich in silver mines, this silver lock is not expensive or expensive! But if you don't like it, forget it, I didn't say it...... By the way, my father has already prepared a meal and is waiting for me to go back, so I will say goodbye first!"
Jiang Lili finished speaking and left.
Jiang Lili was defeated, Tang Zixi finally felt comfortable this time, and she couldn't wait to give her little husband a thumbs up: Good job!
In the next few days, Yunhe stayed at home and waited for news from Mei Bo, Tang Zixi continued to go up the mountain to collect medicine, and Phantom Ye continued to do the craft of carving, but a strange guy came to the neighborhood.
The young man's name is Wang Li, and he is the son of the mining captain. He likes Jiang Lili, and he always comes to visit other little girls every three or few days, and pursues them hard, but the little girls have never responded. In fact, he also came two days ago, but Yunhe was in retreat at that time, so he didn't have a chance to see him.
To be honest, I haven't seen Jiang Lili have a heart for any man, and I haven't heard that she likes any man, Jiang Lili has always ignored Wang Li. This Wang Li is not discouraged, as long as Jiang Lili has not liked other people, he still has a chance.
But since Yunhe appeared, Wang Li found that Jiang Lili had changed a lot.
The little girl will dress up carefully every day before going out, every time she passes by Yunhe's house, she will always look at Yunhe's room a few more times, if Yunhe just came out, the little girl will greet Yunhe with a smile, and often hang "Brother Yun" on her mouth, every day she either sends Yunhe's house to send food or fish.
When the little girl sent the longevity lock, Wang Li also saw it from afar, which made Wang Li angry and jealous.
There is a custom in Fenglai Valley that the girl will give the longevity lock to the man she likes. If the man agrees, the family affair is decided. If the man refuses, then the man is not willing to marry the woman.
Although Yunhe refused, Wang Li still regarded Yunhe as an enemy. After all, the beloved girl, a heart is on Yunhe!
Wang Li is psychologically unbalanced.
In terms of strength, I have a good physique, and the number and speed of mining stones are faster than others.
In terms of money, he is the son of the mining captain, and in Fenglai Valley, his family is already one of the richest.
This person called Yunhe is neither male nor female, except for a good-looking face, he is useless. As far as his thin little body is concerned, what kind of work can he do? He only spends his days in his room scribbling and has to rely on his wife and brother to support the family, which is really unusual.
In Wang Li's eyes, Yunhe is a soft eater, and he feels that even if Jiang Lili marries Yunhe, there will definitely be no good life.
Compared with the horizontal and vertical ratios, they all feel that they have a lot of advantages over Yunhe, but they only feel that Yunhe is like a fox man, which will confuse women's hearts and make women die for him.
What Wang Li hates the most is people like Yunhe.
It's just that Jiang Lili is too simple, so she will be deceived by Yunhe, and she can't help but feel a little jealous of Yunhe in her heart.
When passing by the door of Yunhe's house, Wang Li glared at Yunhe fiercely, as if Yunhe was his enemy.
Yun He naturally felt the hostility emanating from this guy towards himself. Yunhe sweated inexplicably: What did you do to provoke this person?
After Wang Li despised Yunhe, he followed Jiang Lili like a fart, and said in a flattering tone: "Lili, I have a rest today, and I can accompany you all day." Where do you want to go? I can take you!"
