Holding a whole knife of mulberry paper in the next year of Jiangxi Mayuan Shop Flower Hat in his hand, and hooking two small jars of vinegar tail juice poured out of the old vinegar workshop in Qingxu, Shanxi, the nine monkeys listened to the chatter of the shops on the street, and couldn't help but have a smug smile on his face.

From the day the door was opened, a group of little apprentices in the main gate of the fire did not stop, and they had nothing to do in front of Na Jiuye, and someone continued to drink a bowl of tea after a sip, and the boiling water in the wine plug was mixed with rolling waves. Na Jiuye took a sip of the Lao Fen wine that had just been poured out carelessly, and was stunned to make the hot Lao Fen wine burn and spray the wine all over the sky!

Seeing the little apprentices around him staring at him one by one, but none of them dared to open their mouths to speak, where else could there be anything in Na Jiuye's heart that he didn't understand? Counting the past year's hard work, Huo Zhengmen has really earned a few, so he simply waved his hand, and those little apprentices went to Hu Qianli to withdraw the silver from the account of the public middle school, and the scene of a lantern festival was lively.

If others only think of finding a lampsmith to tie the lantern after the door is opened, it is estimated that they really can't find a master who can make a difference. Although there is always a line between making all kinds of whistles and tying lanterns, as the saying goes, it is reasonable to make a good sense and make a hundred industries, just with the scenes that Mr. Hong has passed, seen, and operated in Sijiu City for so many years, where can he not hold a few lanterns?

It also has to be said that it is a matter of face, as soon as the little apprentices who supported the silver from Hu Qianli found Mr. Hong, they said auspicious words and flattery with sweet teeth, and a few girls dragged Mr. Hong's arm and shook it a few times, so that the dizzy old man Hong nodded in agreement, but he really took out the real skills and hard kung fu in his hands - this lantern is a thing to be used as a person's appearance. In addition, the masters walking on the scene in Sijiu City are all passing by and seeing the masters, if they are really accused of being a place to show their cowardice

And I don't care about the side, I'm afraid that I will see a familiar friend on the street in the future, and I'm embarrassed to say hello, right?

With plenty of money on hand, and the little apprentices around him who are lively are also enough to dispatch and call, Old Man Hong naturally figured out the ability to handle the craft scene back then. After a few days of work, the big lantern in the courtyard at the entrance of the main entrance of the fire hall already had a look.

Seeing the nine monkeys walking into the courtyard with the materials they had just bought. Old Man Hong immediately beckoned to the Nine Monkeys: "Nine Monkeys, I'm still waiting for you here!" The hands and feet were neatly placed, and I put these small pieces one by one from high to low on the red marks I had pointed out with a cinnabar pen. But remember to be safe

Putting the object at hand in front of Old Man Hong, the nine monkeys looked up at the lantern archway behind Old Man Hong, which could already be seen, and immediately shouted with his thumb: "Ho Old Man Hong, just with the lantern you are holding and piercing, I guess that the characters at the lantern festival on the overpass tonight will be shocked to lose their big teeth?!" In the past, there was a scene of lanterns on the street, and the famous master in the lampsmith's shop made a lantern. That is the inside and outside of the two floors, go against the grain, but I can't count your lantern archway? Old man Hong, what kind of craftsmanship are you? You also said to our juniors, so that we can also have a long experience, right? ”

He stroked the beard on his chin very complacently, but Old Man Hong ignored the words of the nine monkeys, just reached out and picked up a piece of mulberry paper, and then looked at the two small jars of vinegar tails poured out of the Qingxu old vinegar workshop that the nine monkeys had touched, and nodded slightly: "It is said that you can be regarded as a geographical ghost in the city of Sijiu, and this Jiangxi mulberry paper can be found by spending money and effort." But where did you touch this old vinegar tail? ”

With a slight struggle under the soles of their feet, the nine monkeys jumped lightly on the tripod set up next to the lantern archway. While following the instructions of the old man Hong, the copper retines that were round or flat, pointed or blunt were placed in the place where the cinnabar pen marks were kept, and he replied with a proud smile: "Looking for the boundary of this old vinegar tail, far away in the sky, close in front of you - it is the grocery stores on the street!" ”

While cutting mulberry paper with a finger-sized knife, Old Man Hong asked very strangely, "Can there be an old vinegar tail in the grocery store?" This thing is not useful at all on weekdays, and whose grocery store can come in and sell this thing? ”

Hehe, he smirked. The nine monkeys really climbed around on the tripod like a live monkey, and pressed those copper retines to the lantern archway quickly and accurately: "The grocery store doesn't have an old vinegar tail, but the grocery store doesn't have a vinegar tank, right?" This is the New Year's Eve, and the goods that are sold in the past year are almost the same, especially the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar things. It's even more sold! I just found a few more grocery stores, and it didn't cost me much money to buy the bottom of those vinegar jars! Old man Hong, do you think it's still suitable? ”

Let a few thoughtful girls hold a small brush with fine hairs, dip their old vinegar tails and brush it on the mulberry paper they cut, and the old man Hong seemed to respond casually: "The mulberry paper is translucent, but I'm afraid of fire." After brushing it with the old vinegar tail, even if you take the flame to burn it, it will take a while to get it up. Put it in the lantern and line it with such a mulberry paper."

Comprehendingly, the nine monkeys immediately responded to Old Man Hong's words: "What did I say? Why is it that I have seen a big butter candle in the lantern archway in the past and am afraid of running out of water, but we dare to put six butter candles in this lantern archway? I've been making trouble for a long time."

Nodding approvingly, Old Man Hong smiled again: "It's not in vain, your senior brother praised you for your brain, then I'll test you again, light six big butter candles, in addition to making our lantern archway a lot brighter, what use can it be?" ”

Sticking out his head to look at the lantern archway from the hole in the lantern archway that had not yet been pasted with mulberry paper, the nine monkeys hesitated for a moment, and turned their heads to the old man Hong as if they were a little uncertain: "I look at the twists and turns in this lantern archway, all of which are pipes made of bamboo strips soaked in lime water?" The outside is also pasted with mulberry paper, to prevent air leakage, this horizontal is relying on this butter candle after the heat is lit, urging the lantern archway on the live buckle to turn around? ”

Smiling noncommittally, Old Man Hong turned his head and walked towards his room: "You can be a little neat under your hands, and you should paste the lake silk outside the lantern archway in a while!" ”

Three or two times put the last few copper retines on the lantern archway, and the nine monkeys jumped down from the tripod neatly: "Old man Hong, are you going to leave it alone?" ”

Turning his head towards the Nine Monkeys, Old Man Hong squeezed his eyes at the Nine Monkeys like an old child: "You can't ask me about this." ”

Very anxious, the nine monkeys suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Don't ask you? So who should I ask? In our fire hall, who else can be better than you? ”

didn't agree to the question of the nine monkeys, Old Man Hong just nodded towards the house where Nalan lived, and then went straight back to his house with his hands behind his back.

Looking at the closed door of Nalan's house in the direction pointed out by Old Man Hong, the nine monkeys suddenly muttered to themselves in amazement, "Senior Sister Nalan? How can this matter be found on my Senior Sister Nalan's head? I said, a few of you, who has seen Sister Nalan? ”

As soon as they heard the Nine Monkeys' question, several little apprentices immediately shouted and answered the Nine Monkeys' words: "I haven't seen Sister Nalan in the past few days!" ”

"I met in the morning, and I went out with Senior Brother Xiang, and I pulled a big frame car!"

"When I bought the lake silk a few days ago, I also saw Sister Nalan and Senior Brother Xiang take the lake silk away with a frame car."

"Really! What about lake silk? Why haven't you seen so much lake silk? ”

As soon as the words fell, there was already a shout of a leopard outside the small corner gate of the second courtyard: "Hurry up and come out a few handles in the courtyard, this is tired of me."

There was no need to wait for the Nine Monkeys Tribe, a few little apprentices who were closer to the back corner gate suddenly ran away, quickly opened the hidden back corner door, and then helped Xiang Youbao push the rack cart full of lake silk into the yard.

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Xiang Youbao took his chin and pointed to the lake silk loaded on the shelf car, and shouted in a bright voice: "Be careful under your hands, these lake silks are all treasures now." Counting it in Sijiu City, it's a good thing that can't be bought with money! ”

Approaching the front of the rack car, the nine monkeys looked at the lake silk with more ink, rolled his eyes and shouted: "Senior Brother Xiang, I told you to take out this lake silk for a few days, and this lake silk will become a treasure?" You've caught up with the tricksters of the flyover, haven't you? People are amazing and they are a big change, but you can do it - big change baby? ”

Turning his head to Nalan Nu, who had also walked out of his head and sweating, he smiled and replied to the nine monkeys: "Master Nine Monkeys, this is really not my ability, it is the face of your senior sister Nalan!" Let me tell you clearly, just to let you children have a good time, these lake silks covered in the lanterns are all the drawings drawn by your senior sister Nalan who asked for ink and water in Tsinghua Garden, and even the size is your senior sister Nalan quietly measured the pen and ink before moving! But in Sijiu City, the characters who can invite Mr. Mei Shui to write are estimated to be the only ones you have Senior Sister Nalan! ”

Holding the appearance of the horn on the stage, the nine monkeys suddenly sang and looked deeply at Nalan: "Oh, sister-in-law is really hard!" ”

Suddenly his face turned red, and Nalan suddenly stomped his foot slightly: "Nine monkeys, you see that I don't tear your mouth"

"Oh, sister-in-law spares her life for the New Year, but it's not fun for my sister-in-law to beat my brother-in-law."

"Look how dare you talk nonsense!" (To be continued......)
