Chapter 168: Digging the Foot of the Wall [Asking for Subscription]
There was only one Hu chair, and Chen Ping was not sitting, still standing.
"I'm not here to buy porcelain, but I want to buy some bricks." Chen Ping said, "Thinking that your grandfather is in the porcelain kiln, you should be familiar with it, see if you can help me get some green bricks." ”
There is only one porcelain kiln and brick kiln in the vicinity, all of which are Xue Xiong's family industry. The restaurant he got was chiseled by Xue Xiong, dilapidated and unusable, and if Chen Ping went to the brick kiln by himself, he was afraid that he would have to suffer some trouble.
has a relationship with Xue Wang, so let him help get some green bricks, which saves trouble.
"Do you want to build a house in your house?" Chen Ping's house, which I went to a few months ago, rammed earth walls, and the family didn't seem to be rich, so it only took a long time to think about building a house with green bricks, but Xue Xiong was honest and didn't ask much, "No problem, I often go to that brick kiln, and I am familiar with the person in charge, so it can be cheaper for me to buy it." ”
"Then it's troublesome." Chen Ping took out some silver coins, "There are ten taels of silver here, if it is not enough, tell me again." The green bricks have to be troublesome, Brother Xue, you can help find some people and send them to the county and city, which is the original Fulai restaurant, and the leg strength and freight will be deducted from here. ”
The transportation of green bricks is a difficult thing, more than ten miles away, and the ox cart has to go back and forth dozens of times, if there are many cars, you can run back and forth a few times. The last time there was a matter of Lian, Xue Xiong called some people in the village, and Chen Ping entrusted this matter to him, which should be reliable.
"Yes, leave it to me." Xue Wangguo responded, but then he was a little strange, "Fulai Restaurant? Isn't that from Master Xue's house? What are you going to do with these bricks? ”
Xue Wang has always been at home, and now the fields are also going to be turned over, and he is preparing, but he has not paid attention to these things.
"It's not called Fulai Restaurant now, I bought that place at home, and the deed is with me." The name of the restaurant must be changed, and the specific is still under consideration, and it has to be a loud and meaningful name, Chen Ping said, "But the restaurant was a little dilapidated when I bought it, and I am going to decorate it and use some green bricks." ”
"I see." Xue Xiong was stunned, but he was still not sure, who could buy a restaurant from Master Xue's house? But looking at Chen Ping's face, it doesn't look like a joke, it's good to be honest, I can't figure it out and don't ask, I put the stubble back in my stomach, and I thought, "I know that restaurant, that is, it will be renovated, and it will cost less than ten taels of silver to replace the rammed earth with green bricks, and you will give more money." ”
"I'm going to build three floors, and the ground will also be covered with green bricks." At present, there are no prefabricated panels, and the ground on the second and third floors has to be framed with wooden boards, but in the hall and kitchen on the first floor, Chen Ping wants to use green bricks, and ten taels of silver are not much.
The third floor, all of which are green bricks, Xue Wang nodded silently. Pity my own house, just one into two, this is still Xue Wang's grandfather working in the porcelain kiln, the new one came out, it was a small courtyard.
Rammed earth walls, reed roofs.
People are more frustrating than people. Although Xue Wang is honest, he is not stupid, he has worked for Xue Xiong for more than ten years, and now he barely lives in a two-room house.
Now that I heard that Chen Ping had a restaurant in the county and city, compared with the two, there was a gap, and the loneliness was all on his face.
"Brother Xue hasn't married a wife yet?" Chen Ping saw it in his eyes and mentioned it in his heart.
"The family has no assets, and if it is so poor, where will anyone take a fancy to it." Xue Wang sighed, Chen Ping's words were in his heart.
Xue Wangniang died early, all thanks to his father Xue Fucai pulled to grow up, Xue Fucai is quite capable, in Xue Xiong porcelain kiln for many years, exquisite craftsmanship, through his hands of each batch of porcelain kiln can be guaranteed quality. But for many years, the salary has not risen at all.
"Uncle Xue works in the porcelain kiln, and he should have some silver money every month, why hasn't he been the wife of Brother Xue who has a room." Chen Ping asked puzzled.
"How old are you, where do you know this?" Xue Wang shook his head, smiled at Chen Ping, and said after a long time, "Although my grandfather works in a porcelain kiln, this salary is not sent monthly. It is given at the end of the year, and it is not much, and it is only one or two halves of silver per year. ”
"One or two halves?" For ordinary farmers, one or two halves of silver may be much, but the situation in Xue Wang's family is different, working in a porcelain kiln, this is a salaryman, skilled technical work, how can there be so much money, Chen Ping is strange, but after thinking about it, "Over the years, even if it is one or two halves, it should have saved a lot of savings." Is there anything else that needs to be spent? ”
"Well, there are a few acres of thin fields at home, and I water the river on weekdays, so I have to pay some money to Master Xue's family." Xue Wang said, "If there is that porcelain kiln, if a batch of porcelain comes out, if there is a bad quality, you will have to lose money." Not only in my house, but also for those who work there. ”
The canal is stipulated by the imperial court, organized by the county order, and the township mayor is responsible for leading the specific implementation of the project, which is completely a public facility. I didn't think that Xue Xiong directly set up a card to earn money.
Then there is the porcelain, the kiln temperature is difficult to accurately control, and the slightest mistake will lead to the failure of the porcelain, so the loss should be counted in the loss, but Xue Xiong is directly transferred to the porcelain kiln craftsman.
"That being the case, why did Uncle Xue leave Xue Xiong's porcelain kiln and open one by himself?" Chen Ping asked.
Chen Ping doesn't know much about porcelain, especially ancient porcelain, which is an antique in later generations, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see it, let alone touch it or move it home to appreciate it slowly. But Chen Ping knows a little that porcelain makes money and is in high demand.
Talents are rare, and today Chen Pinglai still has a purpose, to dig up Xue Fucai. Seeing such a scene in Xue Wang's house, and listening to the difficulties he said, Chen Ping was very happy.
Since Xue Xiong doesn't pay attention to it, you only know how to exploit it, so it's no wonder that others are digging into the wall.
"How can it be so simple, it takes money to open a porcelain kiln, and you have to find the right porcelain clay. Moreover, even if it is to open a porcelain kiln, it is impossible for my family to leave Liuhe County, it can only be nearby, and Master Xue's book is not easy to get along. It seems that Xue Wang has not considered opening another porcelain kiln, but because of these worries, it has not been implemented.
The important point here may still be Xue Xiong.
Xue Wang is afraid of Xue Xiong, and Chen Ping is not afraid. The restaurants are coming over, and the faces of Xu Youmao and Xue Wang have fallen in their own homes, and then there is the relationship between Chen Yuanliang and Li Yingxing, that is, if Chen Ping does not go to Xue Xiong, Xue Xiong will also find trouble with Chen Ping.
If that's the case, so why not dig up a few people? Porcelain Chen Ping is not in a hurry to use it at the moment, and he is unable to operate it. But the green bricks, Chen Ping wants to mass production.
"This year, I have recently acquired some mountain woodland, and I see that the soil is clayey and suitable for making bricks. Does Uncle Xue know how to burn green bricks? Chen Ping asked, seeing Xue Wang nodding, he directly opened the conditions, "As long as Uncle Xue helps me burn the green bricks, I can get five hundred yuan, every month, and it will be distributed at the beginning of the month." If you work for another year, then you will have an extra 50 yuan per month, if it is two years, add 50 yuan per month, and it will always be the same, what do you think? (To be continued.) )
