Chapter 65: Zhang Jie's Business
Things always have to come step by step, as the so-called anxious can't eat hot tofu, the old master's word 'anger' made Zhang Jie sober up again, since he knows that Zhao Shuang's family is cheating themselves, then let them pit it, isn't the old saying goes, to suffer is to take advantage!
Since you know that the old man let himself marry Zhao Ping for the sake of other people's bride price and for the sake of having money to treat the disease, wouldn't it be good to get some money for the old man, and he can still watch the old man can't sleep with back pain every day? Watching him lose weight day by day?
As for studying and going to school, it is not something that can be solved in a hurry, it is not easy for children to take the exam, otherwise there are twenty or thirty students in the entire school, why does the old master only value Zhang Jie alone to be admitted?
Knowing that it is not good to take the test, then it is even more necessary to treat it with a normal heart, I have worked so hard, at least compared to the hairy children of the same age, I spend at least twice as much energy in school as theirs, or even three times or five times, if I can't pass the test like this, it is fate, and it has little to do with not working hard.
The sun was in the west, the old master announced the end of class, and packed up the books as in the past, and when a large group of classmates were almost gone, Zhang Jie slowly walked out of the school.
Liu Fat, the little fat man, was still beaten honestly by Zhang Jie's old punch, he wanted to take revenge, and he didn't care if he fought alone, unless he found someone to block Zhang Jie outside the school, but Zhang Jie concluded that he didn't have the guts, and in the afternoon, the old master stared at him for a while with a pair of eagle-like eyes, as long as he was not a fool, he could detect the warning in the old master's eyes.
went home leisurely, entered the yard, put the books home first, and Zhang Jie went to find his aunt Zhang Xia.
Sure enough, in the neighbor's pigsty, I found a girl covered in mud, and I wanted pig hair to make a toothbrush, and if I wanted pig hair, I naturally had to cut it myself, otherwise you can't expect the hair on the pig to fall off by itself.
The length and hardness of pig hair are exquisite, too long is not good, too short is not good, it is best to have the kind of not soft and not hard, otherwise it is too hard, and the gums that poke in the mouth hurt.
The wooden stick of the toothbrush is also particular, it must be polished round enough, and it is best to be water-resistant, in short, if you want to make a complete toothbrush with good texture, it is definitely not possible to do it without 100% effort.
didn't rush to call her, Zhang Jie stood next to the pigsty, watching the little aunt compete with a big black pig, the big black pig was obviously alert to the little aunt, you can know why the big black pig is so angry from the pig's hair that is about to be cut dry.
Naturally, the little girl's family did not just ask for it, holding a large handful of feed in her hand, and throwing it to the big black pig from time to time, and when the big black pig relaxed her vigilance, the girl cut off a pig hair with her hands and feet.
may have been frightened by the bright scissors, the big black pig suddenly stepped forward, and the girl's thin body was suddenly overturned.
Zhang Xia, who fell on a big heel, didn't care, and after getting up, she grabbed the pig's hair with one hand, hit the soil on her body with the other hand, and walked out of the pigsty with scissors.
"You don't always have this pig shear, the hair on the pig's tail is not left at all, and people still expect to use the hair on the tail to catch mosquitoes this summer!"
Turning around and returning home with the slightly embarrassed girl, Zhang Jie said very seriously.
"Full village, just this pig's hair is long enough, and the softness and hardness are suitable, you are so demanding, don't cut it, how do you let me make a toothbrush?"
When Zhang Xia, who looked calm, spoke, she suddenly glanced at Zhang Jie's head, and her expression was somewhat unpredictable.
Zhang Jie's face immediately became ugly, and he said to the girl very solemnly: "Hair is not good, human hair is too soft and dirty, it will definitely not work if you brush it in your mouth!" ”
"Hmph, the pig hair is as clean as it is!" Zhang Xia, who pursed her lips, wrapped a handful of pig hair in her hand in a piece of cloth, and then muttered, "It's enough to make three toothbrushes." ”
At this time, Zhang Jie remembered his purpose, so he asked, "How many toothbrushes have you made?" Anything counts, and those who I said were unqualified in the past were also brought, and together, are there a hundred? ”
"What? Going to sell it? The girl who suddenly became very excited saw Zhang Jie nodding, and immediately said loudly: "Thirty-six qualified, and more than a dozen that you said were unqualified, adding up to about fifty, you said it, one can buy a string of money, don't buy it cheap!" ”
"It's hard to say, but now, a string of money is not enough for your hard-earned money, and you don't have a tael of silver, don't think about it!" Zhang Jie, who was righteous and righteous, hadn't finished speaking, but he saw the little aunt looking at him with a look like you had lost her heart, smash it, smash it, Zhang Jie sneered: "Okay, a string of copper coins is a string of copper coins, I said it, I will never break my word!" ”
Waiting for Zhang Xia to come out with the package, Zhang Jie told Wang that he was going out, and the two of them went towards Xiaoli Village.
"You say, a string of copper plates, someone really wants it? If it really doesn't work at that time, it's okay to sell less, otherwise let's buy ten yuan each, there are fifty toothbrushes here, which can be sold for five hundred yuan in total. ”
is different from Zhang Jie, who is full of confidence, along the way, Zhang Xia looks hesitant, a few pig hairs, and a small wooden stick, so if she can really buy a string of money, Zhang Xia really has no bottom in her heart.
Zhang Jie has already answered her dozens of times, so he will simply ignore her, the focus is not on the toothbrushes themselves, but on the energy she expended when making these toothbrushes, fifty toothbrushes, Zhang Xia took nearly two years to make, in this way, you can know how laborious these toothbrushes are to make.
This time there is no need for anyone to lead the way, I have been here two days ago, so Zhang Jie came to Zhao Shuang's house with a familiar car, and just knocked on the door, he saw a doorman poking his head out and asking who he was looking for.
"You just need to tell Zhao Shuang, just say that Zhang Jie is here, oh, by the way, my little master Zhao Yi and I are iron buddies."
Although Zhang Jie, who is dressed in new clothes, is young, he looks like a cultivated family, and it is definitely not comparable to a little child with snot at such an age in the village, and the doorman saw Zhang Jie's posture as a noble son, and knew that this child must be the little son of a wealthy family, so it is not surprising to know his own little master.
Thinking like this, the doorman said a few words, and then hurriedly went to the house to report the news.
When Zhao Shuang, who was followed by two maids, came out, the sun overhead was just setting, and the last rays of the sunset fell on the slightly mature girls who were dressed up, making Zhang Jie a little in a trance.
It's like, in just a few days, Zhao Shuang in front of her has changed from a little girl to a slim girl.
Before the girl went out, Zhang Jie smiled and said:
"I'm here to do business."
