Chapter 2: Zhang's family comes to the door

Zhang'an is a small village with less than 30 households and a population of about 100 people, and it is located behind Zhangzhuang, which has thousands of people.

Zhang An has only one family surnamed Zhang, and he is still an outsider, and he has no connection with the Zhang family in Zhangzhuang.

Zhang An was not a village before. When the war and chaos caused many refugees to flee to settle here, they found a large family and hoped to help his family farm the land, so the Zhang family temporarily built several hermitages in the field to take them in, and with the increase in the number of settlers, the current village was formed.

In order to thank the Zhang family's grass hermitage for taking in, the villagers named the village Zhang An, the owner of the Zhang family felt that the name was not very good, and took into account everyone's wishes, and then asked to change the village to the homonym Zhang An.

The Gao family is also an outsider, one of the first few households to live in the hermitage, and it has been passed down to Gao Feng's father, who has two brothers. Gao Feng's father is called Gao Youcai, ranking second, so Gao Feng also has an uncle.

The Gao family is a carpenter, the craft comes from the family inheritance, when it was passed on to Gao Youcai's generation, only Gao Youcai learned the true essence, and even reached the level of fame, his brother Gao Youxian did not learn, and could only rely on farming to make a living.

Gao Youcai was fifty-six years old, and he didn't have his only son Gao Feng until he was in his thirties, so he was very doting on him, which led to Gao Feng's bastard character, and he was also to blame.

The son was not doing his job, and seeing that the craft was lost from then on, Gao Youcai had no choice but to pick out the eldest Gao Hai from Gao Youxian's three sons and pass on the craft to him.

Gao Hai is five years older than Gao Feng, because he is young, he has only learned seven or eight percent of the craft, although some simple carpentry work can be completed independently, but the big work still has to be done by Gao Youcai, this time Zhang Dahu's living room furniture is handed over to Gao Youcai.

As a family with status, the Zhang family did not look down on ordinary materials, so they asked Gao Youcai to make furniture and provided rosewood.

Although Gao Feng's character is not good, his talented character is still trustworthy, so the Zhang family did not send a supervisor to supervise the furniture, but only occasionally sent a housekeeper to come and see.

These are the memory information of the original body, and with this information, it can basically ensure that the things that cross the peak will not be revealed.

After tidying up, I cleaned the yard again, and began to think about the furniture on the ground.

The furniture is exquisitely made, beautifully carved, and very practical, which shows how extraordinary the craftsmanship of the high talents is, but their styles have remained unchanged for many years, which is really old-fashioned, and for young people with modern ideas, Gao Feng still has some ideas.

Gao Feng has worked in a furniture factory, although it has not been for a long time, but he is no stranger to the workmanship and style, and it is not difficult to make something new.

Although it is not clear whether people nowadays can accept it, Gao Feng is still willing to try, after all, he wants to gain a foothold in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is not possible to come up with something new.

The only thing that makes Gao Feng embarrassed is that this family is surrounded by walls, and the poor are about to be unable to open the pot, the main reason is the sin created by the predecessor, not only taking all the money to gamble, but also selling all the valuable things.

There's no way, since you use his body, you have to take a share of the responsibility for him. Gao Feng's first task is to raise money.

It's a joke to borrow money from others, the reputation of the predecessor has long been stinky, who is willing to lend him money from normal people, and he doesn't dare to borrow if he wants to lend him money, those people are either usury or powerful ruffians, borrowing a little money will make you take off a few skins, not to mention this kind of poor family and broken house.

The two old men haven't woken up for a long time, which shows how hard the previous things hit them, and there is nothing to be done about this kind of thing.

Just as Gao Feng was wandering in the courtyard anxiously, he heard the broken courtyard door "squeak" and was pushed open, and walked in with his head up A pot-bellied nobleman, who shouted as he walked: "Are you talented at home?" I'll take a look at the furniture. ”

As soon as he saw the other party, Gao Feng immediately recognized who the other party was, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "It turned out to be Steward Li, my father is sick, you can tell me if you have something." ”

The person who came was Li Dequan, the housekeeper of Zhang's family, because he was like a fish in water in Zhang's family and had a very high status, everyone called him Li Deshui in private.

Gao Feng knew that Li Dequan was here to urge the furniture, so he didn't seem flustered, but he had to fall on this person if he wanted to implement the plan, so he greeted him with a smile.

"You—? I can't tell you, take me to your father. "Li Dequan obviously hates Gao Feng, and it's disgusting to say a word to this kind of gangster, not to mention that he often has bad intentions.

Li Dequan looked at Gao Feng with contempt, and then shook his head, it was a pity that he was very talented in his heart, how could such a good person give birth to such a bastard son?

In the face of Li Dequan's contempt, Gao Feng was calm, anyway, it was the predecessor that he looked down on, not him, and besides, he still had a place for the other party!

"Steward Li, my father is lying in the house, if you don't believe it, you can go and take a look." Gao Feng said unyieldingly.

Gao Feng's attitude made Li Dequan suspicious for a while, could it be that this person has changed sex or has some tricks? Although he didn't dare to offend the Zhang family in the past, he didn't have such a friendly attitude.

However, he didn't care about this, and dared to mess around in front of the power of the Zhang family, so he said: "Let's go, go into the house and have a look." ”

The light in the room was dim, and Gao Youcai and his family could still be clearly seen lying on the bed, their faces were not good, indicating that the bastard boy was not lying.

This situation made Li Dequan's expression a little better, he turned around and walked out of the door, and Gao Feng accompanied him back to the courtyard.

"Go back and ask your dad to speed up the progress, the owner is still waiting for the furniture, of course, you have to see it when you are sick, and it's not a way to stay up like this." Li Dequan explained to Gao Feng in the courtyard.

His worry was not really about Gao Youcai's condition, but because the furniture had to be urgent, otherwise he wouldn't have run here twice in three days.

"Of course, when my father is well, I will make furniture as soon as I am well, and you won't be able to use it later." Gao Feng said with a smile.

"There has to be a deadline, if your father keeps delaying, how can I explain it to the owner?" Li Dequan's tone became cold, how could he let a gangster perfunctory.

"What Steward Li said is that my father knew that you were coming, so he asked me to wait for you, and he said that it would be completed in ten days at most, but—" Gao Feng continued to laugh and said.

In fact, the peak of the ten-day deadline is bottomless, mainly depends on whether the materials and tools in the plan are competent, if not, it is really difficult to say, after all, he is still unfamiliar with everything in the Song Dynasty, and added a "just", he also wants to see Li Dequan's reaction.

"That's good, I'll come back in ten days, I hope the furniture can be done by then, this matter has to be hurried, but it can't be delayed any longer, by the way, just what?" Getting the other party's time commitment, Li Dequan nodded with satisfaction, at least the other party's statement made him believe that Gao Youcai's condition was not serious and should recover soon.

Of course, Li Dequan will be scolded if the furniture is not done well, but now that he has hope, he is on a good job, as for what Gao Feng said, he didn't care, but he asked casually.

"My dad said that the style of these furniture is not good-looking, and he wants to change the style, of course, the owner of that style will definitely like it, what do you think my dad is, what he said must be right, do you think this-?" Gao Feng swore that he was really relaying his father's words.

After the crossing, the peak belly was much darker. There's no way, his reputation is not good, he can only borrow Gao Youcai to make a hat, who made him his cheap father?

As long as Li Dequan agrees, the plan will be half successful, Gao Youcai's hat is not wronged, and if it is not good, he will benefit from it, but if Li Dequan opposes, this matter can only be done, and the matter has to return to the original point, and everyone is also safe.
