Chapter 17 Craftsmen, Enter Ganfu
(For @Pao Brother Plus Update)
The little carpenter can be regarded as a person who has seen strong winds and waves, and ordinary things, even if they seem very tricky to ordinary people, are nothing in his eyes.
Even if he was deliberately harassed and blackmailed at the moment, although he pretended to be sincerely afraid, it was only superficial.
In his heart, he was not panicked at all.
The reason why he showed such an uncontrollable expression of horror was because of the girl who was suddenly inserted into the field—her little face was so similar to the little girl that often appeared in his right eye.
Except for the change in age, the face shape, expression, and appearance are exactly the same.
How could this not shock the little carpenter?
It was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, wearing a festive red jacket, combing a big oily braid, bright eyes and bright teeth, wheat-colored complexion was very healthy, her mouth was like a pill, her little face was plain, but she was even more youthful and hot.
The girl obviously came to the aid of the poor road, but when she saw the little carpenter's ghost-like expression, she was immediately a little annoyed, glared at him, and said, "Do I have flowers on my face?" ”
The little carpenter hurriedly pretended to be "panicked", waved his hand again and again, and said no, no.
His mind was a little confused, and he didn't know why this girl was so similar to the little girl in red, and at this moment, the two tax collectors saw this girl with big pigtails, but they retreated in a panic, and then hit Qian'er like Qianqing, shouting, "Fourth Miss." ”
The little carpenter's eyes jumped, and he could probably guess the reason for the incident, but he did not speak.
The fourth lady with a big braid frowned and asked, "You two are ......?"
A flattering smile appeared on the bearded face of the leader, explaining his identity, and then said, "This kid is hiding his income, and we are here to ask him to make up the payment." ”
The little carpenter also tried his best to explain at the moment, and the fourth young lady listened and glared at the two of them: "My Ganjiabao is a place where rules are spoken, a mouthful of spit and a nail, he is a stall, not a businessman, how much money is a craft, it is a skill, it is your turn, it is not your turn to blush......"
The two left in a panic, and the onlookers next to them applauded and cheered, which was very lively.
The fourth young lady also had a bright face, and said to the little carpenter: "Don't worry, when I turn back, I will ask someone to check these two guys, and I will definitely give you an explanation." ”
The little carpenter was still thinking about the appearance of the fourth young lady, nodded absentmindedly, and said, "Thank you, thank you, but you don't have to bother too much, you can make money ...... you."
The fourth lady smiled and said that you are a kind-hearted fellow.
Then, she glanced at a pile of objects on the stall and said, "Little carpenter, I am Gan Wenfang from the Ganjiabao family, I heard from Miss Li's family, you came from the south, and you can also make sofas in the West?" ”
It turned out that he came to the Western scenery.
The little carpenter had confidence in his heart, nodded and said: "I have seen it in Wuchang, and I have also seen the internal structure, if the materials are complete, it should be no problem." ”
He also told the previous set of rhetoric at the moment, because the details were detailed and true, the fourth lady nodded again and again, and when the little carpenter talked about the lack of materials, she waved her hand and said that you don't have to worry about this, I have all kinds of blacksmiths, leathermen and craftsmen in Ganjiabao, as long as you can draw the drawings and talk about the specifications, you can make it up for you - in this way, my Ganjiabao will come to some foreign guests in a few days, and my brother hopes to get a set of Western furniture to receive, so you don't have to take on other work these days. Just do things in my Ganjiabao......
After she finished speaking, she pointed to a housekeeper-like person next to her and said, "As for the price, if you talk to Uncle Ping, I will definitely not treat you badly." ”
The little carpenter was a little surprised when he heard this, but it was actually helpful to be able to enter Gan's house and inquire about his previous affairs, so he agreed, but he had taken the order before, and he might have to go to Ganjiabao to report after he was busy.
The fourth lady, Gan Wenfang, listened and looked at the housekeeper next to her, Uncle Ping.
Uncle Ping smiled and said, "Fourth Miss, I'll deal with it." ”
The fourth lady nodded, said a word to the little carpenter, and then turned to leave—the little carpenter saw that she had two children with her, a girl of seven or eight years old, and a boy of five or six years old.
The two children, each with a rock sugar gourd, walked towards the market, while Uncle Naping stepped forward and asked which two had placed orders for him.
