(Ask for a pink ticket in the new book period)

On this day, Chen Qiuniang got up early in the morning and talked to Chen Liu. Although Chen Liushi did not express it clearly, he was obviously much more peaceful, and he did not scold and scold again, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, insinuating insinuations.

Chen Qiuniang had breakfast and instructed Chen Qiusheng and Chen Qiuxia how to feed and bathe their two younger brothers, wipe Chen Quanzhong's body, change dressings, and massage. After that, he took Qiusheng to go fishing with him, gave him all the fishing skills, and instructed him: If this fishing is finished and she doesn't come back, then he will go fishing by himself, and he can only catch two at a time and go back, and he must not go into the water.

Chen Qiusheng nodded very obediently, and verbally repeated all the tips and notes on fishing skills one by one. This child's intelligence made Chen Qiuniang very satisfied. Then, under the guidance of Chen Qiuniang, he started fishing. After coming and going, the two practiced by the river for a morning, catching five or six fish weighing more than a pound and a dozen or so small fish under a pound.

At lunchtime, Chen Qiuniang personally instructed Qiuxia to cook, how to identify the fermentation situation, and how to knead the dough. Later, he taught her steamed buns, baked dough cakes, and steamed fish. also told her that if she didn't understand, she would ask her grandmother for advice. Chen Qiuxia is a little more wooden than Qiusheng, and she doesn't learn quickly, Chen Qiuniang taught it several times, and let her practice it alone two or three times before she can barely do it.

Chen Liushi walked back and forth outside the kitchen several times, and finally couldn't help but say: "Qiu Niang, it's too bad to let her practice like this." ”

"Grandma, don't worry about it, these are slightly kneaded, and they can be eaten and won't be wasted." Chen Qiuniang comforted Chen Liu. Chen Liushi said "um", then said "Qiuxia is serious about learning", and went to weed the vegetable field.

Chen Qiuniang taught Chen Qiuxia for an afternoon, and Chen Qiuxia can be regarded as having a look. Chen Qiuniang collected the noodles at this time, picked the bean leaves and steamed the steamed buns. Then he walked to the vegetable field, helped Chen Liu's weeding, and chatted with her casually, saying that he would go to the kitchen of Yunlai Inn in Liuhe Town tomorrow to do chores. After work, you can do things in the Chen family, Mrs. Chen is a good person, she takes care of food and housing, and has monthly money. Chen Liushi was silent for a long time, then sighed and told her to work hard and not worry about family affairs.

Chen Qiuniang nodded again and again, Chen Liushi looked at her, sighed again, and said, "I'm sorry for you." ”

A sentence of enmity. Chen Qiuniang really realized this sentence, and there was a kind of relaxation in her heart that she had never felt before.

After dinner, Chen Liushi packed up her clothes and utensils again, laid her baggage, and told her to beware of others. Don't let the man get close, lose her innocence, Chen Qiuniang agreed again and again. The grandfather and grandson talked until late before they went to sleep.

Early the next morning, Chen Qiuniang ate a steamed bun, drank a bowl of fish soup, and set off with her baggage. She first went to inform Wan Sanniang, saying that she would go to Liuhe Town to work and live in Yunlai Inn, if Li Taohua wanted to find him, she would go to Yunlai Inn to find him. After that, she went to find Ma Si and set off for Liuhe Town. Unexpectedly, at the archway at the entrance of the village, I saw the village chief with his youngest son sending people away. It was the black-clothed man who was leaving, and they were each on horseback, with bows and arrows on their backs, and swords at their waists, and they were majestic.

When the man in black saw Chen Qiuniang, he asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"I went to Liuhe Town to do work, and I found a job as a kitchen chores." Chen Qiuniang replied.

"Hmm." The man only said yes, and without asking any more questions, he threw his whip and rode away.

Chen Qiuniang has long been accustomed to this kind of inexplicable and purposeless dialogue. But watching them ride away, I couldn't help but think of Zhang Ci in my heart. This group of people came to Shuzhong to kill Zhang Ci, and now Zhang Ci is still alive in Zhang's mansion. So, they'll be lucky enough to do it, right? Didn't Jiang Fan say that there were already assassins in Zhangfu these days?

Zhang Ci, that guy looks self-righteous and short-sighted, what is there to be afraid of the forces behind the man in black? Is it just because of the birth date or the face or something?

However, the Zhang Mansion is powerful, so there should be no need for her to report this kind of information that everyone knows. Chen Qiuniang thought to herself, but the village chief next to her asked, "Qiuniang, are you going to work for a long time?" ”

"Yes, grandpa the village chief, I'm looking for some work, otherwise the family will really have no way to live." Chen Qiuniang replied.

"You're still too young, and you're out of that kind of thing, someone really invited you?" The village chief was skeptical.

"Someone invited me to do chores in the kitchen of the inn, take care of food and housing, and pay monthly money." Chen Qiuniang replied. She actually understands the village chief very well, after all, she is a little girl who can't pick her shoulders or hands, and there is a case of defrauding the corpse, and it is really difficult for someone to ask her to do things.

When the old village chief heard this, he frowned and asked, "Which inn?" ”

"Where's the Cloud Inn? They also knew about my resurrection from the dead, and the old shopkeeper said kindly. Chen Qiuniang said truthfully.

"Yunlai Inn, it seems to be okay." The old village chief pondered for a moment, still not at ease, worried that someone would deceive Chen Qiuniang, and when he saw Ma Si coming in a car, he told Ma Si to go and see it in person, and not let the gangsters harm Chen Qiuniang.

Ma Si nodded again and again to reassure the old village chief, and said that he would definitely check it out in person. Chen Qiuniang was moved in her heart, and she had a good impression of this old village chief who had always had a straight face.

The sun went up the mountain, and Ma Si rode his horse to Liuhe Town.

When he arrived in the town, Ma Si insisted on going to Yunlai Inn with Chen Qiuniang to have a look. Chen Qiuniang couldn't resist him, so she went to the Yunlai Inn with Ma Siyi. Na Panqing was collecting tables and chairs in the hall, and when he saw Chen Qiuniang coming, he immediately shouted upstairs happily: "Childe, Qiuniang is here." ”

As soon as Chen Qiuniang stepped into the hall, she heard the sound of wooden stairs kicking on the ground, and Chen Wenzheng, who was wearing a wide robe and plain clothes, walked down quickly from the upper floor, and arched his hand: "I was just thinking about whether Qiu Niang came today, but I didn't expect to come." ”

"Go to work as soon as possible and make money as soon as possible." Chen Qiuniang smiled and said to Chen Wenzheng: "This is my fourth grandfather, and he is a veteran of driving cars." This over the mountains and mountains, there is no road that he does not follow. ”

Chen Wenzheng arched his hand and said, "Fourth grandfather, I know you." When my father was alive, his carriage overturned in the mountains, and you saved him. Later, my father and I personally visited the fourth grandfather. ”

"Haha, you kid has a good memory. At that moment, you were so tall. You've been studying at the academy for the past few years, but I haven't seen you for years. Ma Si smiled heartily and compared to the height.

Chen Wenzheng smiled, and then sighed and said: "My father suffered a tragic accident last year, this store is like this, I am anxious, so I don't have to walk around with the fourth grandfather of Ma, the fourth grandfather doesn't blame me." ”

Ma Si laughed heartily again and said, "I'm happy if you remember me like this." I'm here today mainly to see who asked my Qiu Niang to do things. This child is still young, and we adults are always worried about whether we will be deceived. Now that it's you, I'm relieved. You can't bully us Qiu Niang. ”

Chen Wenzheng bowed and said, "The fourth grandfather said that he was laughing, I was counting on Qiu Niang's cooking skills to revitalize my shop, how dare I bully her." ”

Ma Si laughed again, saying that he still had something to do, so he left. Before leaving, he told Qiu Niang that if he wanted to go back to Liucun, he would go to the archway to wait for him, anyway, he would come to Liuhe Town every market day.

Chen Qiuniang answered, sent Ma Si out with Chen Wenzheng, and then paced back to the store. Na Panqing was clever, and half-covered the door of the shop, and closed all the windows.

"Has Chen Gongzi ever inquired about the skilled craftsmen around here?" Chen Qiuniang cut to the chase.

"I inquired about several well-known people in the neighborhood, and even quietly visited the conduct and virtue. In the end, there are only three left. Chen Wenzheng said as he took a stack of papers and sat down at the square table.

Pan Qing placed the four treasures of the above room on the side, because Chen Qiuniang was also literate and hyphenated, so she also put a set on it.

"Then there is an introduction from Mr. Lao Chen." Chen Qiuniang sat down and listened to Chen Wenzheng's introduction. Chen Wenzheng is worthy of being a reader, with a good ability to express his tone and conciseness. After a while, Chen Qiuniang got to know these three people.

The first craftsman is called Wu Baohe, in his fifties, who is a famous craftsman in Meizhou, majoring in carpentry, and is a famous carpenter. His scope of work includes repairing houses, creating all kinds of woodwork, and also cultivating the art of lacquering. Of course, it will also carry out the work of Shangliang Residence. It is said that as long as the customer wants the wood, tell him a rough appearance, he can make it vividly, and the selection of materials is the most suitable. And there are many disciples, all of whom are skilled, if you can invite Wu Baohe, it can be said that you have invited a complete set of teams, and you don't even need to invite handymen.

"This guy is definitely the best person in terms of skill alone. But in his fifties, he had many disciples. It can be seen that he is a master of fame and fortune. This salary is certainly not cheap, and he brings someone to do it himself, and this expenditure is certainly not small. Chen Qiuniang judged.

Chen Wenzheng also nodded, but said: "But this person has a quirk and likes to do strange things." If we can draw good drawings, we may be able to pay for it. ”

"Good drawings, I can draw this, if it can really be done, save some money, that's really good. After all, we were able to hire famous craftsmen for the renovation, which in itself was a good publicity stunt. Therefore, whether it is successful or not, we must visit Wu Baohe. And we have to let everyone know that we are going to visit him. Chen Qiuniang said.

Pan Qing didn't know why, but Chen Wenzheng nodded straight and said, "Wonderful, wonderful." In this way, no matter whether it is successful or not, the fact that we want to open a new hotel will definitely be known within a radius of hundreds of miles. It's all good for us. ”

Chen Qiuniang smiled: "It's pleasant to talk to smart people." ”

Chen Wenzheng smiled, and then took a pen and listed Wu Baohe as the first person to visit on the paper. Then he talked about the second place, and he was also a well-known carpenter within a radius of 100 miles, named Li Jiayun, in his early thirties, honest and responsible, and a solid worker, who worked with his son, and the handyman needed to be invited by the proprietor. Shangliang Anzhai does not accept the work of the gods, and the proprietor needs to invite himself. The fee is much cheaper than Wu Baohe.

"What is this person's family background?" Chen Qiuniang couldn't help but interject. Because after listening to Chen Wenzheng's introduction, I really couldn't figure out what flaws there were in this Li Jiayun.

"The family background is average, last year's fire burned the house clean, and my wife also burned to death, and the price of work has been much cheaper recently." Panqing introduced.

"This is more likely than Wu Baohe to be our partner. But we'll go and see this man then. As for the price or something, we will talk about it then. Chen Qiuniang felt that this was more reliable, after all, the cost was there. What's more, what she wanted at the beginning was not how good the decoration was, but to make a big noise, so that the hotel would attract attention from the beginning of the renovation and hoard customers for the opening of the hotel.

"Well, I also think this is reliable, it is said that the Wanchuntang Medical Center is renovated by the father and son every year. The nearby pagoda of Wannian Temple was the main study of this father and son. Chen Wenzheng also nodded, and seemed to be inclined to the father and son.

After that, the two analyzed a third person. The third person's name was Xiang Yang, in his twenties, who lived on the top of Wuyun Mountain near Wuli Town, accompanied by only two disciples, and was said to be highly skilled, but he made some gadgets every day. The place where he lives is too remote, and he has a strange temper, whether to take the job or not, it completely depends on his mood, and even if he does, his mood and temper are often bad, and many miscellaneous people can't stand his temper. Therefore, there are very few people who go to him to do work.

"That's a strange man. It's unlikely that we'll be the one we're working with, but if Wu Baohe doesn't succeed there, we can visit him. Chen Qiuniang said.

Chen Wenzheng also agreed with her, especially the person likes to fiddle with some new things, if there is a new map, and the renovation drawings here are completely new architectural layouts, that person will definitely like it.

"And that's not all. I've got new drawings, and we'll hand them over when the time comes. Chen Qiuniang said with a smile.

Pan Qing was worried that the man would not agree at that time, but he stole the drawing, and Chen Qiuniang suffered. Chen Qiuniang shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter. First, this kind of person values reputation the most, and must not steal other people's ideas; Second, we don't need to eat as a craftsman, even if he takes a ten-eight-sheet, we have nothing to lose. ”

"Qiu Niang is an understanding person. The little one sighs to himself. Pan Qing said with a smile.

After that, Chen Qiuniang inquired about other candidate carpenters again, and considered three candidates to be included in the list. After that, the selection of masons was discussed. In ancient times, masons were always inferior to carpenters, so they were not as difficult to find as carpenters.

Chen Wenzheng still listed three masons. These three masons are not far from Liuhe Town. One of them has its own masonry workshop, and the other is good at making stoves. Another is the low fee. These three people are all well-known for their good reputation, honest people, and they will not make any moves in the owner's feng shui.

Chen Qiuniang's opinion is that these three can be visited, especially the one who is good at making stoves, if the price is reasonable, he is the first choice, after all, the hotel needs several new stoves.

As for cooking utensils and stuff, just follow the drawings I drew last time and find a nearby blacksmith shop to make them. If the blacksmith is willing, he will draw drawings for him to pay for. The big bowls, small bowls, and plates in the tableware are mainly to discuss how much money will be added to the logo of the Jiayunlai Inn. Chen Wenzheng also selected three as alternatives in this regard. RS
