In a blink of an eye, the first delivery date agreed with the Lin family arrived, and this time Uncle Lin did not come in person, only the long-term entourage and a young shopkeeper and a guy beside Uncle Lin.

Lin Zimo naturally didn't come, which made Ye Shen, who was a little worried, secretly relieved.

In order to make more makeup and make more money, this month, in addition to sleeping, eating, and going to the field to take care of his fruit trees in the morning and evening, it can be said that his hands are not separated from bamboo strips and rattan.

Ye Damin's situation is similar to that of Father Ye, and it is even harder.

There has been little rain recently, and Ye Damin has to carry water every morning and evening to water the fruit trees and crops in the field.

Every few days, I have to go to the mountains to cut bamboo and pick rattan, and on days when I don't go into the mountains, I have to break bamboo strips, knead rattan, and make book baskets.

Father and son worked hard all day in the shade of the yard or under the eaves, hunched over and buried their heads, and were busy almost every day until it was too dark to be seen.

Hanging your head for a long time to open bamboo strips or weaving is a great burden on your waist and cervical spine.

Every time she saw this scene, Lin Wan was very worried about their waist and cervical spine.

Seeing that Father Ye and Ye Damin worked so hard, Lin Wan remembered the hand-cranked bamboo stripping machine opener she had seen in her previous life, if she could make a hand-cranked bamboo-breaking bamboo stripping machine opener, she would definitely be able to reduce a lot of workload for the Ye family's father and son.

Lin Wan once thought about drawing the drawings of the hand-cranked bamboo stripping machine and opening the film machine and quietly throwing it in the Ye family's courtyard, but after thinking about it again, she finally dispelled this idea.

What she learned in her previous life had nothing to do with mechanical manufacturing, and she had not learned drawing, even if the structure of the hand-cranked bamboo stripping machine was not complicated, she had also played with the hand-cranked bamboo stripping machine and the film opener, but she had not really understood the structure of this machine.

Even if he could draw it, he would only have a form but no spirit, and it would not play any role at all, but he might put himself in a dangerous situation.

So Lin Wan could only work with Ye Shen to help the family do what they could, such as digging earthworms to feed chickens, picking old vegetable leaves and raising rabbits.

Speaking of which, this month, the whole family is basically busy around bamboo weaving and rattan weaving.

But even if the family worked so hard, due to the limited manpower, there were only 20 dowries made up in a month.

Because the weaving of the book basket is relatively simple, and in addition to Ye Damin, Chen also weaves it together in his free time, so the number of book baskets is larger.

Early this morning, Daddy Ye took out all the makeup and book baskets and carefully checked and counted them, and it was indispensable to calculate the income, and the makeup and book baskets together had more than three taels of income and less than four taels of silver.

More than three taels of silver a month is already quite a good income in the countryside, but compared to the hard work and hard work of the family, and then average to each person every day, in fact, the money earned is really not much, Lin Wan realized that it was not easy for the ancient working people to make money.

The young shopkeeper asked the guy to count the number of dowries and book baskets, and settled the accounts according to the contract, and took out three small silver ingots of one tael from his purse plus three hundred and twenty copper coins to hand over the line section Ye Daddy.

Father Ye took the rough count and handed it over to the Chen family.

Chen took it and counted it carefully, and then came out of the hall happily.

The young shopkeeper pursed his lips and told the young man to carry the dowry and the book basket to the carriage down the slope, and then looked at Changsui.

Since the goods and silver have been paid, Chang Sui stood up and was about to say goodbye, but Father Ye took out a basket from behind him and put it in front of Chang Sui.

The young shopkeeper stretched his neck to look into the basket, but saw that the basket contained more than a dozen chickens and ducklings made of bamboo and rattan.

Without waiting for a long time to say anything, the young shopkeeper was already unhappy: "Our uncle likes makeup and book baskets, but he doesn't collect all the garbage, such things are placed in the shop, won't it lower the taste of the shop, no matter how bad the money is, you won't do it!" ”

Ye Zhan, who had been listening to the movement outside the hall, was suddenly unhappy, and jumped up to rush into the hall to snatch the basket back.

Can't afford these gadgets? Hmph, he doesn't want to give it yet!

Ye Zhan had long seen that the young shopkeeper was not pleasing to the eye, and since he stepped into the Ye family's courtyard, the disdain on the young shopkeeper's face has never disappeared!

Giving his carefully woven chicks and ducklings to such a person, Ye Zhan still thinks that this person has lowered the taste of chickens and ducklings!

This person actually dares to say that his chickens and ducklings have lowered the taste of the Lin family's shop, which is unbearable!

This shopkeeper probably just brought it up, it's okay to be young and arrogant, but why doesn't he want to think about why his master signed a contract with the Ye family? Since the Ye family dares to take things out, there must be merits.

To be honest, the young shopkeeper was indeed blind, and he definitely underestimated the gadgets in the basket.

Don't look at the chickens and ducklings that are just made of bamboo and rattan, these are all equipped with the same mechanism as the makeup.

It was Ye Qing who first took down the scraps to weave chickens and ducklings, and he made chickens and ducklings just for Ye Shen and Lin Wan as toys.

One day after studying, Ye Zhan happened to see Daddy Ye install a mechanism for makeup, and Lin Wan once muttered a sentence in his mind, so he had a flash of inspiration and decided to install a mechanism for the chicken and duckling to let the chicken and duckling move, and realize Lin Wan's wish to let the little bamboo chicken and the little vine duck walk by themselves.

So Ye Zhan pestered Daddy Ye and asked a lot of knowledge about the production and installation of the mechanism, and under the patient guidance of Daddy Ye, Ye Zhan spent a lot of thought, and finally succeeded in making a chick and duckling with a mechanism that could walk after countless failures.

When Lin Wan saw the movable chick for the first time, she also had to admire Ye Zhan's intelligence and dexterity.

Of course, at the beginning, Ye Zhan made this kind of chicken and duckling with a mechanism just to make his younger brothers and sisters happy.

Until one day, Xiaocao came to him excitedly and told him how the friends in the village were envious and wanted to see his walking bamboo chicken.

Ye Zhan's heart moved when he heard this, and combined with the happy appearance of his younger brothers and sisters when they got the moving chicks and ducklings, he saw business opportunities from them.

Since the younger siblings and the little friends in the village like the chicken and duckling, they can make some chicken and duckling and sell them for money.

Ye Zhan stuffed his head and made a few more chickens and ducklings, and he planned to take these chickens and ducklings to Chongfu Temple to try his luck.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth to say what he meant, he was strongly opposed by Father Ye: "On this hot day, how many pilgrims can there be in Chongfu Temple?" In the future, don't think about what you have or don't have, learn more from your eldest brother, and have time to read and write more. ”

Ye Zhan was naturally unconvinced when he heard this, because he knew that Father Ye's so-called lack of pilgrims was not a fact at all.

Although the incense of Chongfu Temple at this time is not as prosperous as during the big temple fair, it is also very prosperous, and there are even people who send the elderly and children to Chongfu Temple to escape the summer, how can there be no pilgrims?!
