Chapter 22 Excellent craftsmanship

Bai Yunduo sat beside Bai Shuyan, opened the tool box and said: "Brother, don't worry, your sister is very measured, you see, these tools, plus those leftovers, go back and get some good wood, let's make a few hairpins casually, make a few bracelets and sell them at the market, the money is not easy?" ”

Bai Shuyan looked at those tools, although he didn't understand, but he also knew that they were all fine things: "But Yunduo, can we really do it well?" ”

Bai Yunduo is still very confident in this: "Anyway, I'm idle, I'll make a jade pendant for my eldest brother?" ”

In fact, she also has itchy hands by herself, so many good things, she really wants to do something to play.

Bai Shuyan was also excited, and nodded again and again: "Then try it?" ”

He became less and less suspicious of his sister's ability, and helped Bai Yunduo clean up the things on the bed table with one hand.

After cleaning up, Bai Yunduo put the tools and the scraps on the table, and then began to choose the materials.

She had too many pendant styles in her heart, so she quickly started to do it.

Bai Shuyan looked at his sister's skillful movements and was in a trance: "Yunduo, you really learned from that mother-in-law?" I look at you how often you seem to do it? ”

Bai Yunduo hurriedly explained: "That mother-in-law is a master, you know brother, those masters are different from ordinary people, what my mother-in-law taught me is much more useful than being an apprentice in the shop for five years." Do you think that those who learn martial arts from masters can learn martial arts the same as those who learn martial arts from street sellers? And learn cooking skills from the chef in the imperial dining room, and learn cooking skills from the chef in the small tavern in the town? ”

Bai Shuyan listened to Bai Yunduo say this, and thought about it: "That is, a famous teacher is a high apprentice, Yunduo, you are really lucky, that mother-in-law really saved our family." ”

Bai Yunduo found that there were too many lies, and the more he said them, the smoother they became, but they were all white lies, and they were also helpless lies, so they couldn't tell the truth, right? This imaginary mother-in-law is her own talisman.

"In the future, I will teach my eldest brother to do it, and my eldest brother will learn faster if he is smart."

"Well, in the future, the eldest brother will definitely follow you well."

"Let's use the leftovers that these people don't want now, go back and get some beautiful stones, some beautiful wood or something, make some gadgets, and then let's come to the town market to set up a stall, one can be sold for dozens of yuan, how much will we sell three or five a day?" Baiyunduo's price for this is also an approximation, according to the time when they used to hear the white lotus they boasted.

Bai Shuyan folded his fingers and calculated: "I haven't counted so much money here, how much?" ”

Bai Yunduo felt that he had to teach his brothers and sisters in the family to read and count, otherwise they would all be illiterate in the future, how could they do big things?

She calculated for Bai Shuyan: "Big brother, these are all things that people don't want, and they don't have any capital, but these things are also considered jewelry, no matter how small they are, they can be sold for thirty yuan, three or four a day, which is more than 100 yuan, of course, you can't sell them every day, you have to do it at home, once every three days, ten times a month, that's more than a thousand yuan, this is still the most conservative estimate, if it sells well, it may not be doubled." When we don't divide the family, we say that we will repay the debt, say that the capital is high, and when we are separated, we don't need to pretend, we won't be able to turn over in a year? Eating meat every day is not a trivial matter? ”

Bai Shuyan used to think that Bai Yunduo said that eating meat every day was a child's vision, but now he found out that this sister is really not ordinary.

He couldn't close his mouth in surprise: "What? Can you earn more than a tael of silver a month? I used to work long hours for only 300 yuan a month, but I didn't rest when I got up early and went to the dark, and sometimes I couldn't sleep when I was in a hurry to deliver goods overnight. ”

Bai Yunduo thought of her brother's small body, who had suffered so much, and she was very distressed, she touched Bai Shuyan's head: "I will take care of you in the future, and I won't let you suffer." ”

Bai Shuyan was made to laugh out loud by his sister's gesture: "You girl, why did you suddenly become a little adult, I am the eldest brother, and I still want to protect you in the future." ”

"After that, my eldest brother will protect me, and I will earn money to let our family live a good life, okay?"

"Okay, our brothers and sisters are of the same heart, and their profits are golden."

"Well, Big Brother is right."

As she spoke, Bai Yunduo began to polish the jade material in her hand again, this piece is the biggest here, she really wants to get a good thing for her eldest brother, if it is really dangerous, this can be exchanged for some money.

The brother and sister were talking, and Bai Yunduo was teaching Bai Shuyan some simple arithmetic while doing it.

Bai Shuyan is very humble in learning, and he learns very quickly.

At dusk, Mu Langque returned to Fu Bao Zhai from the back door.

Shopkeeper Li was waiting for Mu Langque to come back, and when he heard the voice, he hurriedly greeted him, and pushed Mu Langque up to the second floor from the unique ramp on the side.

After entering the house, Shopkeeper Li took out the tool diagram drawn by Bai Yunduo in his arms: "Childe, look at these tools." ”

Mu Langque looked at those drawings and narrowed his eyes: "These are drawn by the white girl?" "Because he really couldn't think of anyone else at this time who could come up with so many things that he didn't expect.

Shopkeeper Li nodded: "In the afternoon, the white girl came again, said to borrow paper and pencils, and then drew these, and wanted to find the blacksmith shop to order, I stopped, saying that the master outside is not fine, I helped find someone to do it, and gave her some of our tools first." ”

Mu Langque looked at the drawings for a while, and said to himself: "What has she experienced? After speaking, he looked at the shopkeeper Li and said: "Uncle Li, you let yourself build it, send it in person when you do it, and these are all kept secret, this girl is not small, but she is still young and does not know her hidden strength." ”

He didn't know that Bai Yunduo had all the fur in her heart, and she had covered it up as much as possible.

Shopkeeper Li should say: "My subordinates understand." After that, he quit.

Mu Langque held those drawings in his hands, his slender fingers brushed the lines on the paper, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The sun set, the pendant of the white clouds was done, and the copper inlaid jade gourd pendant was actually quite simple, but this tool was not easy to use, and it took more time.

Bai Shuyan looked at the small pendant and fiddled with it in his hand for a long time: "Is this really made?" What do you think of yourself? ”

Bai Yunduo smiled and said: "This is the simplest object that my mother-in-law taught me, gourd, Fulu, big brother with a good meaning." ”

As he spoke, he used those messy threads to weave a colorful rope with ordinary flat knots, and then strung the small gourd and put it around Bai Shuyan's neck: "In the future, the eldest brother will be blessed and have a long life." ”

Bai Shuyan looked at Bai Yunduo and grinned very happily: "My Yunduo is really capable." ”

Bai Yunduo also smiled and put those things away: "Tomorrow, let's make two more gadgets, for Xiaocao and Liulang, just so I can practice my hands." ”

Bai Shuyan said: "You make one for yourself." ”

Bai Yunduo said with a smile: "Big brother, I am practicing my hands, in the future, our family will not lack jewelry, and when the Chinese New Year comes, I will save more good things and make a beautiful hairpin for my mother." ”

Bai Shuyan couldn't close his mouth with a smile: "It's so good, I finally see hope, let's wait for my father to come back, and then the family will be well fed and clothed." ”

"Well, the days will get better and better."
