Chapter 122: Mortise and tenon structure
Dou'er chose to roll on the floor of the outer room until noon.
Tang Yourou had no choice but to remind him not to kick and break things.
Before leaving the door, she walked back between the outer room and the inner room, and became nagging: "There are traffickers outside the door, if someone knocks on the door, remember not to open the door." Young lady, you can soak for a while, don't soak it, you must take care of your brother. Dou'er, if you are hungry, stay in the room and eat dry food, don't eat the food sent by Xiao Er, we can't afford to buy that dish...... I'll be back at noon to bring you something to eat!" ”
If she hadn't woken up in the morning and seen the window with a few low walls, she would have forgotten the banter from the roof last night.
This means that it is not safe in the inn.
The young lady had jumped into the tub by this moment, and her hands were stretched out from behind the screen, throwing petals upward. Dou'er rolled on the ground, pretending to be a fish.
The two of them agreed one after another, and urged her to leave quickly, don't miss the hour.
Tang Yourou complained in disgust: "I'll go to the carpenter to make a gadget, what time will I miss?" ”
Out of the room, she first wandered around the corridor, thinking that if she happened to meet this flower thief, she would invite him to drink a cup of hemp and exchange him for a bounty.
It's a pity that I didn't meet it.
It may be that the inn is expensive, there are not too many people in and out, and the rooms are tightly closed, and it is impossible to tell whether it is vacant or the tenants inside are still resting.
Occasionally, I could hear voices from inside, but it wasn't the flower thief wanted by the whole city.
Thinking about it, I am wanted by the whole city, where is the heart of the guest house?
Tang Yourou went down the stairs, passed by the counter, saw Xiao Er, and asked casually: "Xiao Er, is there a tenant named Yu Gongzi here?" ”
Xiao Er didn't even bother to look at the bamboo slips used to record the name, and said, "My guest here is not what you little girl should inquire." ”
“……”
It can't be said that he underestimated himself.
The people who can afford to live here are not ordinary people.
Chunrong Inn has done a good enough job, at least ask them if they have any silver first, instead of directly judging people by their appearance and driving them out.
Tang and Rou leave the inn and head to the carpenter's shop in the East Market.
……
Probably because the business was so good, the bus lost the door and simply closed its doors.
Tang Yourou was a little worried that after he had collected all the money, he would not be able to find the public loser, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door panel again and again.
"Which one doesn't have long eyes, he's busy!"
The old craftsman's voice was impatient, and it sounded in the room.
Tang and Rou shouted through the door: "Lose everyone, I will soon have all the money, and I will come to you to build a house tomorrow and the day after tomorrow!" It's the luxurious mountain view room, two floors! ”
The old craftsman remembered this strange little girl, and roared: "Jing can talk big, wait until you have collected all the money!" ”
"Derre!"
Tang and Rou shouted and ran away.
Passing by Dong Ji, several craftsmen were busy grinding and cutting wood, and wood chips were flying.
Several people who needed to customize the house sat at the door of the shop and waited, and when they saw a little girl like Tang Yourou coming, they thought that she was urging the adults in the family to work, and drove her away.
Tang Yourou ignored them and looked inside, but instead of seeing Tang Yungui, he saw Ah Niu, a plasterer in the village.
Ah Niu also saw her and asked in surprise: "Hey, Rou girl, so early, did you live in the county seat last night?" ”
Tang Yourou: "Well, I just found a place to rest, so I don't have to run back and forth." ”
She didn't say that the three of them lived in the Chunrong Inn, after all, the inn cost five taels of silver a night. Last time, a few dollars of silver could be rumored to be worth one or two when someone came to patronize it.
If it is known by the villagers, they will chew their tongues behind their backs.
She walked into the store, and in the noisy sound of workmanship, she asked, "Where is the second uncle of the Tang family?" ”
Ah Niu was still thinking about why she used this title, and remembered that she had separated from the Tang family. He didn't speak ill of people behind his back, wiped the sweat on his head, stopped cutting wood, and said with a simple smile: "It's just that I stepped on the shit luck, the old craftsman took a fancy to my craftsmanship and asked me to work here for a few days." ”
"Boy, don't stop talking, don't stop working!" The old craftsman of Dong Ji raised his head from the side of the table and shouted a lesson, "The lazy food in your village was because he ate too much and did too little, so he didn't want to come." I've driven two of your villages away, don't be the third lazy! ”
"Yes, yes......" Brother Niu reluctantly returned to his place, and continued to polish the plank with a wooden thief.
Already drove away two?
Those two are most likely Tang Yunfu and Tang Yungui.
I don't know what means Tang Zhuangyuan used to let these two find such a good job. But the Tang family didn't know how to cherish it at all, and they were lazy to do it.
But it had nothing to do with her, so she listened to it as a gossip, turned around and forgot about it.
Since Brother Niu is here, Dong Ji's reputation is also good, so he gave this business to this family.
The old carpenter was a philistine, and when he heard that it was needed by Fu Manlou, he put down his work and asked Tang Yourou what he was going to do.
Tang and Rou explained the needs in detail and measured them to him: "I want two, one big and one small." With the cheapest wood, just a model, it doesn't matter if it breaks. ”
In fact, many people can do carpentry work, even if they let those who do miscellaneous dishes and wash dishes in the back kitchen of Fumanlou, they can cut something good. It's just that those people are not skilled workers, and they don't come as quickly as craftsmen who specialize in work.
And the people in the back kitchen are too easy to leak rumors.
Although Yuncheng's liquor store was monopolized by the Liu family, Tang and Rou didn't want others to know what she was doing.
"Well, it's a quarter of an hour."
The old craftsman actually took action himself.
There were many scars on his withered hands, and thick calluses, which had accumulated over many years of carpentry. Although the cocoon is rough and scary, it is also awe-inspiring.
Take the cut flat plank, put it on the anvil plate and press it, use a sharp knife against the outside to turn around, and the disc is cut.
Then turn around in the center, and the vacancy of the central axis is also dug up, and the whole disc becomes a concentric circle.
Because the cheapest kind of wood is chosen, the texture is very soft, and there are wisps of wood grain on the cut, which is not too flat. The old craftsman picked up the sharp tip of the knife and quickly sharpened the material, smoothing the texture by hand.
Put down the disc and make the center column fastened on both sides.
Tang and Rou squatted aside, watching with bated breath.
The old craftsman took up the leftover scraps from the cut blocks, cut a disc larger than the hollow, and chiseled a straight mortise in the center. Then from the materials made by the apprentice, he took a stick as the central axis, and the head of the stick was cut a few times with a knife with his bare hands, and the tenon was ready.
The three components were stacked on top of each other, and the round lid was hammered with a mallet, and the straight tenon structure was tightly fastened together!
The old carpenter picked it up and put it on the wooden shelf that the apprentice had given him.
Not a single nail was used the whole time, and the turntable was made entirely of wood.
Tang and Rou watched dumbfounded.
It's going to be done soon! The old craftsman is too fast!
