Chapter 11 Honeycomb Coal
Tang Qianqian seemed to like to see Wang Xiao panicked, and just didn't let him get up.
"Since you're here, how can there be any reason to go?" She smiled and leaned down slowly.
Wang Xiao watched her press down little by little, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said, "By the way, there is something I almost forgot to tell you, it is a way to make money." β
Speaking of this, he himself was quite interested, and even forgot to be afraid.
"Didn't I say that I would redeem my jade pendant with silver? For this matter, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I have thought of a few ways to make money, and you can give me a detailed reference. β
Xiao Qianqian was stunned.
Wang Xiao continued: "Although it is the beginning of autumn now, it will soon be cold, and there will be more charcoal everywhere at that time. β
"You're going to be in the charcoal business?"
"It's not me, it's us." Wang Xiao stared at Tang Qianqian with some direct eyes, his eyes were full of expectation, "I have a good product, we will work together, how about it?" β
Tang Qianqian is by no means the first time she has been stared at like this, but in the past, those men stared at themselves like this, just coveting their bodies.
The good-looking teenager in front of him actually wants to do business with him?
For some reason, she moved slightly, and the hand that pressed on Wang Xiao's body loosened slightly.
"Listen to me, I have a kind of charcoal called 'honeycomb coal', which is low in cost, but it burns much more vigorously than other charcoal fires." Wang smiled and said, stretched out his palm and gestured in front of her, and said, "It's about this big, a cylindrical shape, with a hole in the middle, like a honeycomb." β
Tang Qianqian saw him stretch out his hand in front of him, and thought he was going to pinch himself, but when he saw that he was a little serious and focused, he laughed at himself, and sounded patiently.
"Because it is such a shape, the area of combustion is large, the fire starts quickly, the temperature is high, and the smell is small, so it must be better than other charcoal fires."
Wang Xiao said and stood up, pulled out an old charcoal fire from the iron stove in the house, and said, "You see, your charcoal is burned to the end, but it is not easy to burn in the middle, but the honeycomb coal is different...... It also has the advantage that it can be made with only cinders. Do you have pen and paper? I'll draw it for you......"
There was pen and paper on the table, and Tang Qianqian seemed to be practicing calligraphy before he came, and wrote a few lines of poetry on a piece of paper. Her handwriting is graceful and elegant, which is quite pleasing to the eye.
"If I am the Green Emperor in his year, I will bloom with the peach blossoms" - I saw such a poem at a glance.
Wang Xiao didn't want to look at what she wrote, so he just glanced at it, then took out another piece of paper, and took a pen to draw the shape of honeycomb coal on it.
After drawing a floor plan and a faΓ§ade structure drawing, Wang Xiaocai nodded with satisfaction.
"Ah, look. It's such a piece of coal fast. β
Tang Qianqian stared at it, and saw that the young man in front of her was like a crown of jade, and her eyebrows were full of brilliance, which made her quite interesting.
"Look at what I do, look at this." Wang Xiao lifted the paper again.
Tang Qianqian looked down, but the painting in his hand was quite ugly, with thick and thin lines, crooked and twisted.
But fortunately, you can see what is being drawn.
"People say that painting is like the person, but your painting is far from your person." She smiled: "Do you want to use this way to make money in exchange for your jade pendant?" β
"Yu Pei, you can not return me first." Wang smiled: "If you really make money, after all, it is inconvenient for me to go out at home, and you must advocate everything." β
After he finished speaking, without waiting for Tang Qianqian's reaction, he picked up the pen and wrote on the paper again.
After writing for a long time, he handed the paper over.
"This is the method of making bee coal, you can find someone to try to make it, if it is feasible, we will do it with a faΓ§ade, it should be able to make a small amount of money." But be sure to keep secrets and arrange trustworthy people to ......"
Tang Qianqian looked down, but saw that the words on the paper were a little crooked, but the writing was clear and the steps were clear.
"Is it really possible?"
"You'll see if you try." Wang Xiao stared at her eyes and said in a low voice, "How about we do this business together?" β
He leaned closer, his eyes filled with a desperate desire.
Tang Qianqian couldn't help blushing when she met such a gaze.
"According to you, you can trust the slave family?" She asked softly.
The king smiled and said, "Even the things that I opened are now only known to you, who can you believe if you don't believe me?" β
"Okay, let's do it together." Tang Qianqian said with a smile, saying that she put her hands around Wang Xiao's neck, with a smile in the corners of her eyes, and exhaled like an orchid.
Wang Xiao pretended not to understand her pun, and nodded with some joy: "You won't regret your choice today, in this way, when the time comes, we will make half of each of us." β
Tang Qianqian said angrily: "You just move your mouth, but you want to earn half of the silver from the slave family." β
Wang smiled: "This thing is not difficult, and the cost is not big, it is just an idea." Remember, this is easy to learn, you have to pay attention to secrecy, and also, we just collect cinders, we don't need high-quality charcoal, you can find out how much money you need in the past two days, if it's not enough, I'll find a way to ......"
He seemed to be a little rambling when he confessed.
Tang Qianqian was not impatient, but just looked at his old-fashioned way of speaking with interest.
When Wang Xiao said that her mouth was dry, she quipped: "Okay, okay, I don't know, I think you're doing a big deal." β
"You don't understand, I need money urgently." Wang smiled.
"A woman in the slave family, naturally she doesn't understand. Anyway, I'll get it for you tomorrow, okay? β
"A word?"
Tang Qianqian let out a "hmm", gently scraped his fingertips on his nose, and said leisurely: "It's late at night, let's rest, little wealth fan." β
Wang Xiao's eyelids jumped.
But he had already prepared, his body was short, and he escaped from her embrace with a smoke, and quickly escaped from the door.
"I really have to go back, goodbye."
Tang Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and Wang Xiao's figure disappeared as she spoke.
She had no choice but to shake her head and smile, looked down at the paper in her hand, and said to herself: "What a strange person, strange and interesting." β
At the same time, outside her door, the limping teenager jumped twice against the high courtyard wall and shook his head in disappointment.
I'm such a fool that I can climb out and can't climb back.
Wang Xiao had no choice but to walk one foot deep and one foot shallow towards the outside of Snow Alley.
Fortunately, he walked this road once, and although he walked slowly, he still walked to the gate of his house.
The courtyard door is closed.
He had no choice but to pick up the knocker and knock it a few times......
Mazi looked through the crack in the door, rubbed her eyes, and then ran back to shake rosacea awake.
"Guess who I saw? The third young master is outside the door. β
Sprinkled nose and said in a daze: "I'm sleeping, aren't you?" The third young master didn't go out. β
Mazi said in a low voice: "It can't be a ghost, right?" I dare not open the door alone, you go with me. β
The two returned to the courtyard gate together, and then asked with some trepidation: "Three...... Third Young Master? β
"Well, open the door."
With a squeak, the door was opened, and Wang Xiao finally returned home.
"Third Young Master, when did you go out...... Huh? β
"Don't worry about it, don't talk about it." Wang smiled.
After walking so far, he was a little sleepy, and after explaining a word, he raised his feet and walked to his courtyard.
Who knew that the pockmarked face actually responded: "Then what is it?" As the porter, we are also loyal to our duties, and we have to tell everyone who comes in and out...... Oh. β
Wang Xiao was speechless.
In the darkness of the night, he suddenly made a decision - sooner or later he would beat the two porters......
-------------------------------------
That night, he slept soundly.
In the dream, he got his wish and slapped the two porters.
After that, it seems that I dreamed of Tang Qianqian......
"Young master, get up." In my ears is the gentle call of the tassels.
Wang Xiao rubbed his eyes and said in a daze: "Won't Ying'er take me out today?" β
"I said I wouldn't go out."
When did you say yes, it's clear that this girl unilaterally said yes.
Wang Xiao muttered, "Then I'll sleep for a while, and I won't go out anyway." β
Ying'er said: "The young master has to get up, it's three poles a day, and the master is back, you have to go over to say hello." β
Wang Xiao sat up and frowned.
"The master is back?"
"Young master, I called my master, you have to shout 'Dad' back." Ying'er was a little helpless......
Wang Xiao has collected some information from Ying'er in the past two days.
The surname of the old man of the Wang family is Wang - this is probably nonsense.
In short, Wang Xiao's cheap father is named Wang Kang, and 'Kang' is Du Kang's Kang, and the reason why he has such a name is naturally because the Wang family has been making wine for generations, and it is regarded as a wine merchant in the capital.
Wang Kang has two older sisters and a younger brother. Now that the two elder sisters have married outside, he and his younger brother Wang Qin have not separated. It's just that Wang Kang lives in the East Mansion and Wang Qin lives in the West Mansion.
Wang Kang's wife is the daughter of the Su family, a grain merchant in Hubei, and the first three sons of the Wang family were all born to the Su family, and when Wang Xiao was born, Su died of dystocia.
After Su's death, Wang Kang Xuxian married Cui, who was born as a grain merchant in the capital. Later, he accepted two concubines, one was Aunt Zhang, and the other was Aunt Shen, who had a very low laugh point that Wang Xiao had seen that day.
The population of the Wang family is naturally not so simple, but obviously Wang Xiao didn't remember those many people when he was demented before.
Ying'er only picked such a core character and repeated the instructions again.
- Speaking of which, there is a stepmother, two aunts, and several brothers and sisters-in-law.
The place where Wang Kang lives is called Du Kangzhai, which is said to be Zhai, but it is actually a rather large courtyard.
After arriving at Du Kangzhai, Ying'er was still waiting outside, and Wang Xiao entered the lobby by himself.
Wang Kang had just returned to the house, and he was changing clothes in the back, and there was a group of people in the hall waiting while talking.
The hall was full of men and women, young and old, Wang Xiao felt a little big when he saw such a scene, and he only recognized his eldest brother Wang Zhen and aunt Shen.
Seeing that there was an empty seat between Wang Zhen and a little girl, presumably his own seat, he walked over and sat down honestly.
Although he suspected that Wang Zhen might have knocked himself on a stick, he would not be stunned on such an occasion......
