Chapter 120 - Slaughtering Cheng Shibo Again

These days, Ying Tianfu has been in a heat wave, and Gu Bei has stayed at home with peace of mind these days, except for going to the workshop and Chengfu to inspect.

Early in the morning, the courtyard was tinkling, Gu Bei not only found Carpenter Wang, but also invited the old man Liao, a blacksmith in the city, to his home, and several people got together and kept exchanging opinions.

Gu Bei was really hot, so he had a whim to come up with a set of automatic fans.

Old man Liao is well-informed, but he still doesn't understand what Gu Bei is going to do, "Gu Gongzi, this iron tube can be done, but it's boxy, and it's not too big, what can you do?" ”

"What do you care about this, just say if you can do it, remember that you must be careful with the two pipes, don't connect the two pipes, and there are big seams exposed."

"Gu Gongzi, you look down on Xiao Lao'er a little, it's not Xiao Lao'er who blows, just this little thing, if you still can't get it right, I will close the blacksmith shop, and I will have your surname in the future!"

"Go, go, hurry up and get to work, what's your surname with Aunt Ben? When the time comes, Uncle Ben will have to call you uncle? ”

Under the command of Gu Bei, the old man Liao was all busy, and at noon, the Baifu was in charge of the meal, and the group of people was more energetic. Near noon, Gu Bei was sitting under the big tree to enjoy the shade, but he didn't expect that the door hurriedly walked over, followed by an acquaintance, but this acquaintance had an embarrassed smile on his face, and he was a little angry.

Gu Cheng?

What the hell, didn't my cousin open an ice shop in Yingtianfu by himself, I heard that the business was so good, why did he come to the house.

Gu Cheng rushed to Baifu under the scorching sun, his mouth was dry, and he didn't say anything polite to his cousin, so he ran to the table and poured himself two glasses of water. Looking at Gu Bei's worried look, he knew what his cousin was thinking.

"Cousin, you can relax, my brother hasn't been in contact with Splash Skin recently."

"No contact? Oh, that's not right, cousin, the ice shop business is so good, how can you still have time to come to my house. ”

Gu Cheng was not in a good mood at the time, rolling his eyes, revealing some pain, you and I are willing to come, aren't you being bullied?

Seeing Gu Cheng's expression, Gu Bei understood everything, sat opposite, and smiled gloatingly.

"Cousin, tell me quickly, is your ice shop no longer open?"

"Cousin, I don't take you like this, but you're right, there is also an ice shop opposite a certain shop. The proprietor of that shop saw that my family's business was booming, and hired a few splashes to come and make trouble, and since those splashes came, there were still people who dared to come to the door. I had to ask someone to report to the official, who knew that as soon as the catch came, those splashes would be gone, and as soon as the catches left, those splashes came again. ”

"Cousin, weren't you a splash before? You can also hire a few splashes to make trouble. ”

"Cousin, your idea is good, but I can't bear that store has an official background. A certain hired a few splashes and just went to make trouble, and the arrest came soon, and he also arrested those splashes who made trouble. ”

Drinking saliva, Gu Cheng continued sullenly: "As soon as he was caught, he felt that something was wrong, or did the guy in the store once meet a shopkeeper who ate and drank with the government's catcher." ”

Gu Cheng's meaning, Gu Bei understood it, and he came to the door today to let him come forward.

"Okay, cousin, don't think about it so much, wait a minute, I'll let Xiao Ran go to the government to make sure your ice shop is prosperous again."

"If you have a cousin's words, so-and-so will be relieved." Gu Cheng laughed, with Gu Bei coming forward, who would dare to find fault, when the Guogong Mansion does not exist?

After feeling relaxed, I found that the yard was tinkling, so lively, "Cousin, what are you going to do here?" ”

"Hehe, you're just in time, we're grinding something new, you'll know later!"

In the afternoon, Bai Luoshi led Qing'er back to the courtyard from Mrs. Qin with her stomach straight, and complained to Gu Bei, "Husband, what are you going to toss again, my mother hasn't had a good nap these days." ”

"Ahem, lady, don't be angry, for the sake of your husband and for the sake of our happy life!"

Bai Luoshi thought crookedly, her face suddenly turned red, she raised her foot and kicked it in the void, "What nonsense is Fujun talking about." Hmph, Miss Ben will see you tossing today, if you can't make any tricks, you will feel better. ”

After noon, Bai Luoshi personally supervised the work, Gu Bei had to hurry up the progress of the project, and spent half an hour to put the finished waterwheel in the pond in the garden, erected wooden stakes one by one, tied to the trough, the wind blew the waterwheel, and the water entered the sink little by little.

The sink passes through the rockery, in the rockery position, the slope of the sink becomes more shaky, the speed of flowing from high to low is faster, the end of the sink is the yard where the two people live, there is a small windmill standing in the yard, the water flows down, the waterwheel with the water, slowly turning.

The windmill rotates, and the wind that blows out carries moisture, no longer hot air, but in the direction of the windmill, there are made iron square pipes, which enter the house from the eaves and coil around the roof.

As the windmill turned, gusts of cool breeze entered the iron pipe, and Gu Bei stood in the middle of the room, gradually feeling a trace of coolness.

This is so cool, this kind of waterwheel fan is made, the only drawback is that there is a constant whining sound, but this flaw is still bearable.

Bai Luoshi, Qing'er, Gu Cheng, Xiao Ran, and Mrs. Qin, several people stood in the center of the room, all of them were flustered, stretching out their arms, as if embracing nature.

The wind was cool, wet, and I stayed in the house, as if it was still early spring, but it was a hot summer day outside the window.

It's amazing, Gu Bei is not a human being, he can even make this thing!

Mrs. Qin is a straightforward person, and happily praised: "Xiaobei, you are really amazing, when do you think you will get it in Weiniang's house?" ”

"Mother-in-law Fang Xin, I'll get it tomorrow!"

"Uncle, Qing'er's house?" Qing'er hurriedly raised her hand, now there is no one who can make this thing except Gu Bei.

"Get!"

Bai Luoshi's beautiful eyes flipped and swept around, but she was embarrassed to beg Gu Bei.

Gu Bei hurriedly bent over and flattered: "Lady, don't worry, I'll help you get it today to ensure that you sleep comfortably at night!"

"You love to mess around, who is rare!"

Bai Luoshi is duplicitous, if you don't like it, what are you laughing at.

Gu Cheng felt that he had come to the right door, if he hadn't come to the door today, he probably wouldn't have seen this miracle, his cousin was simply amazing, he could get this rare thing, did he discuss with his cousin and move back in? In the future, when you sleep here, you don't have to be afraid of the summer heat anymore, and you will have to cover the quilt when you sleep.

The next day, Gu Beizheng led Xiao Ran, Gu Cheng and others to load a windmill for his mother-in-law, and Cheng Wudi hurriedly came over.

In the past few days, I have to be busy supervising the work, and there are a lot of things to deal with in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, so I don't have time to come to Gu Bei to negotiate about the windmill.

"Shibo, calculate the time, the thatched houses in your house have been rebuilt, you are not busy with your own affairs, how can you still have free time to come to the virtuous nephew?"

Cheng Wushu felt a belly slander in his heart, Lao Tzu takes care of every day, when you want to come, look for you, a little bastard, not for the windmill. But you are idle at home every day, and the thatched house is rebuilt, and I don't see you coming.

"Virtuous nephew, don't talk about the wind and cold, you want to come as an old man, not for the Zhuangzi windmill. Seeing that autumn ploughing is approaching, you little bastard actually asked the old man to come to the door in person. ”

Gu Bei suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, listening to this, why was something wrong? It's like begging you to build a windmill?

After explaining a few words to Xiao Ran, he led Cheng Wudi to the shade of the tree, but heard Cheng Wudi tease in a loud voice: "Gu boy, why did you install a water wheel in your own house, do you plan to tear down the house and farm?" ”

"Oh, it's a waterwheel fan." Gu Bei wiped the spit on his face, and he didn't have a good air.

Cheng Wudi didn't care about talking to Gu Bei, came to Xiao Ran's side, and looked up and down carefully.

"Ahh Does this waterwheel fan use the water flow to push those large leaves to rotate? Gu boy, what is your head, how can you invent such a good thing. Cheng Wudi actually saw the key to the rotation of the waterwheel fan at a glance, which made Gu Bei a little surprised.

Gu Bei nodded: "Shibo has good eyesight." ”

"Haha, Shibo is most afraid of the heat, I wonder if the water wheel fan of the virtuous nephew can be installed for the old man's house?" The big eyes on Cheng Wudi's face turned a few times, and he immediately made his request.

"Shibo also wants to install? No problem, it's just ......" Finding a business opportunity from it, Gu Bei suddenly became energetic, patted his chest and assured, stretched out his index finger and thumb to rub it.

"Just what?"

Cheng Wudi's eyes were blank, and his thumb and index finger with the thickness of radish also rubbed together.

"Don't get on the road?" Gu Bei suddenly remembered this kind of gesture that modern people understand, he should not understand as an ancient, "Oh, Shibo, it's easy to install these, and the cost of materials is not low!" ”

What? Want money again?

Cheng Wudi felt a burst of coolness in the room, and suddenly wanted to scold his mother, this little fox charges for everything, but this fan is really comfortable, if it is installed, you don't have to worry about not being able to sleep in the future.

"How much?"

Cheng Wuving's face was dark, Gu Bei didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's hard to collect five hundred taels of silver!" Oh, it's a room. ”

"Mother! It's five hundred taels again, and I have a grudge against the old man! ”

"Shibo, you feel the cool breeze, five hundred taels of silver for summer without the heat is a good deal! Of course, Shibo, I must give some discounts in the next, then give Shibo a lifetime card, lifetime warranty, there is no such store in this village. Gu Bei had an idea, and a "lifetime warranty card" was born, of course, this is to deepen the friendly relationship between the two families.

Lifetime card? Lifetime warranty?

Although I don't understand what it is? But it sounds like a long time.

In the summer, Cheng Wushu stayed at home, even if there was ice cubes in the closet, his burly body could always be found by the heat. Feeling the cool breeze in the house, there was no feeling of sweat at all, and he also felt the coolness of early spring, Cheng Wudi felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

"Forget it, five hundred taels is five hundred taels, just install two houses!" Cheng Wudi made a refreshing decision.

Gu Bei pinched his fingers, why did he install two? The Cheng family has thirteen people, shouldn't it be thirteen? That should be six thousand five hundred taels of silver!

seemed to know what he was thinking, but Cheng Wudi said: "There are only two rooms, one for the old man and one for the little artist." ”

Ga!

Who said that the ancients were patriarchal? Uncle Ben promised not to him. If it weren't for the fact that Cheng Wudi was a native of ancient times, Gu Bei would have wondered if he had also been worn by modern people.

"What about the ten world brothers?"

"Oh, those bunnies! The skin is rough and the meat is thick, not afraid of the heat!"

Rough skin and thick meat, not afraid of heat?

Isn't it said that we should be more afraid of heat? Shibo, your partiality is a little too powerful!

Since Cheng Wudi is very sure that his rabbit cub is not afraid of heat, Gu Bei is too lazy to worry about it, anyway, it is not his rabbit cub.

Silver Ticket Delivery! The transaction was completed, and Gu Bei finally put his mind at ease. He was really worried about Cheng Wu's invincible hob, which would take a lot of words, after all, the most precious thing in summer is water resources, which are also indispensable for the human body.

Now, Gu Cheng found that Cheng Wudi was a potential customer worth cultivating, and if he invented it in the future, he could also sell it to this big guy.

The business was negotiated, and Gu Bei asked his subordinates to prepare a bowl of smoothies for everyone.

On a summer day under the scorching sun, no one can refuse such a delicious and tempting smoothie.

"Rejoice! Gu boy, your smoothie is really happy!"

Cheng Wudi picked up the bowl of smoothie and drank it all, nodding his head again and again.

Seeing that Cheng Wushu was very interested in smoothies, Gu Bei was thinking about whether to take the opportunity to sell them, but he only heard Cheng Wushu say: "Gu boy, how do you make this smoothie, it suits a certain taste, and the old man will let the cook learn it another day." ”

Yo!

'Cheng Shibo, you've learned badly! It's not good at all, you're like this, how can I sell it? ’

Alas, the world is difficult and dangerous, and the heart of the world is broken!

Cheng Wushu didn't care what he thought, he drank three bowls of smoothies in a row before he stopped.

Gu Bei saw his amount of ice, his eyes rolled, do you want to sell Shibo the method of ice making, otherwise with his appetite, the stored ice cubes will be in a hurry sooner or later, Gu Bei thought so, and was just about to speak, but someone took the lead.

"Cheng Hou, hehe, hello! Do you need ice? ”

But it was Gu Cheng on the side who took the lead, Gu Bei couldn't wait to kick him away, and he grabbed the old ...... by grabbing business Uh, here comes my cousin.

Cheng Wudi's big eyes looked at Gu Cheng suspiciously, and after a long time, he suddenly said, "Oh, you are Gu Xiaozi's skinny cousin?" ”

Belch!

Who is the one who is splashing? Gu Bei's eyes were very unkind, and he wondered if he would install a fan to send hot air to his house. But think about it, forget it, for the first customer, you can't smash your own signboard.

Ga!

Say who's a splash? So, was that once upon a time? Now we are the owner of a shop, and customers have to shout when they see it, Gu shopkeeper, Gu Dongjia.

No matter what, Gu Cheng didn't dare to learn from his cousin's glare, otherwise he would be crushed by the thick fingers of the radish, and it was estimated that his cousin would not be able to save him, so he smiled flatteringly: "Yes, yes, Master Hou is really a good eye!" ”

"How many ice cubes do you have?"

"Hehe, how much does Master Hou want?" I learned the method of ice making with Beidi, and he dared to pack a ticket wherever he went, even if you want to build a house with ice, we can supply it.

"Oh, how much does it cost? Don't you learn from your bastard cousin, if you dare to kill the old man, the old man will pinch you......" Cheng Wudi put on a lofty posture, squinted his eyes and skimmed him, and his right hand clicked.

"Hey... Oh... Uh, three... Erwen Qian and a piece of ice ......" Seeing that Cheng Wu's big eyes were full of murderous energy, Gu Cheng hurriedly changed his words.

Earn less! The most important thing is a small life.

"Oh, you're afraid of the old man? How much exactly? Cheng Wushu smiled, listening to Gu Cheng's ears like a soul-seducing sound.

"A penny, a penny, and home delivery!"

"Gu boy, your cousin is also spineless, but he is more business-oriented than you!" Cheng Wushu glanced at Gu Bei.

“......”

Gu Bei shrugged, accustomed to his cousin's virtues.

"Hehe, don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Gu Cheng glanced at his cousin and squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying.

After Cheng Wudi found a place here with Gu Cheng, he got up and strode towards the mansion gate, and did not forget to drink a bowl of smoothies before leaving, as if it would not be hot after leaving the mansion like this.

The next day, Chen Jinwang came to the door again and brought good news.

The good news is that the craftsmen actually made the flat glass......

Gu Bei dropped the brush in his hand and rushed to the courtyard where the glass was fired at the mouth of the kiln, looking at the uneven and twisted flat glass, Gu Beida was excited.

Although these glasses are not yet usable as window glass, they are a good start.

Gu Bei suddenly became beautiful, and imagined in his heart that if he built a house in the future, covered the roof with transparent glass, hugged his wife and lay on the bed to count the stars together, and did some exercises that were beneficial to his body and mind, this day would not be too good......

Gu Bei encouraged the shopkeeper Zhou, rewarded the craftsmen with some silver money, and said that he would work hard and would not treat them badly and walked out of the courtyard door satisfied.

After receiving countless thanks, Gu Bei, who was in a good mood, inspected the kiln again, and saw the red bricks piled high on the open ground, Gu Bei remembered that the land was almost washed now, and it was time to recruit people to build high-rise buildings.

In the last few days, I almost forgot about the big things when I knew that I had enjoyed it.

Back in the house, when Gu Bei summoned craftsmen to plan to build a high-rise building, he was unanimously opposed.

Li Laosan cried with an old face like a chrysanthemum, and persuaded bitterly: "Uncle, don't make trouble, it takes a lot of people to build a high-rise building, what can we do with only 20 of us?" ”

He was also thinking about rebuilding a thatched house for Cheng Fu, and subconsciously felt that rebuilding a thatched house could still make money.

Gu Beihun didn't care: "If there are not enough people, then go and recruit." ”

Li Laosan got a lot of reward money some time ago, and he still needs to be persuaded again, but Gu Bei stopped him and said: "Lao Li, Uncle Ben called you here, not to ask you whether this high-rise building should be built, but how to build it, let's talk about your thoughts." ”

No matter what you do, authority is the most important, even if you know that you are for my good, you are absolutely not allowed to refute yourself in front of so many people.

Authority represents the right to speak, and if these high-rise buildings want to be built according to their own ideas, if they say what they say, then they must do it, there is no doubt about it.

PS: Let's collect something!
