Chapter 37 The county lord
After the payment is successful, the screen enters the search interface, 535 did not lie to her, and she can check the information of the oil press. Unfortunately, all the search results are supporting 535's words, and she can't do it now.
It seems that she can only figure out a way in real life.
As soon as Shang Qianlan woke up the next day, she had a new idea, the oil mill in the village was too small, and the risk of mixing tung oil with edible oil was too great, so she wanted to go to a larger oil mill to see, maybe there was a solution.
To Jiang Hao and others, she only said that there were still things to discuss with Master Chen, Shang Zhengqi wanted to accompany her, but she was also accompanied by Yu Zishi, and Shang Liang shined off the reason that he needed to take care of him more. Shang Zhengqi's activity in the village is higher than that of her and Yu Zishi, and the goal of the three of them going to the town together is too big, and she doesn't want the matter of Youtongzi to leak out.
"Wait a minute, go straight to the oil mill in town, you know the way, right?" Shang Qianlan couldn't lie to Yu Zishi, not far from the door of Yu's house, she told her true whereabouts.
Yu Zishi nodded and paused for a moment, "I ate the meal you left for me yesterday, and it tastes very good." ”
"Huh? Oh, I saw you didn't come back last night, and I didn't do yours again, when did you come back yesterday? Shang Qianlan was subconsciously stunned, and then remembered that she left a meal for Yu Zishi at noon yesterday, since she found out about the tung oil yesterday afternoon, her mind was full of tung oil, and she had long forgotten about it.
She wanted to ask Yu Zishi if she had encountered something tricky if she hadn't come back for a day, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.
Forget it, people do this business, she eats radishes blindly and cares about something.
"I don't remember, after dark." Yu Zishi didn't have the heart to answer, so he casually went over, and immediately asked, "Why do you want to go to the oil mill, isn't the business with the Chen family a farm tool factory?" ”
Shang Qianlan put her arms on the railings on both sides of the ox cart and looked at the scenery along the road with her head on her head, "Eggs can't be put in one basket, and I can't do business with just one family, but whether this family is surnamed Chen or Wang, I will only know when I get it." ”
He was right, this girl was ambitious, the corners of Yu Zishi's lips raised slightly, no wonder he could say those words to the world.
There are several villages in Tongzhong Township that grow rapeseed flowers, so the oil mills in the town are mainly squeezing rapeseed oil, and the color of rapeseed oil is black.
Although he was mentally prepared before leaving, he still hit Shang Qianlan with a big blow again and again.
"Lubei is the largest oil mill in town, let's go over there and ask." Yu Zishi saw her hanging her head, and reminded in time,
Shang Qianlan took a deep breath, it's okay, if you want to die, give her a good time!
Perhaps when Shang Qianlan was lucky, the steward of the oil mill did not directly refuse when he heard that the oil tung seeds were poisonous, but asked her rhetorically, "Is there a lot of this thing?" Toxic is easy to do, as long as the amount is not much, we can clean up a separate oil extraction. ”
Hearing this, Shang Qianlan immediately shook her head, "Not much, it's just my own home." ”
The tung tree does have the effect she remembers, but there are many trees in this world that she has never seen, and it is difficult to ensure that the tung tree in the mountain behind Qinghe Village is not the same as the one she saw in the book in her previous life.
"Then it's easy to say, when does the girl need to use it? I've got to get someone to clean it out ahead of time. The steward glanced at the two of them as he spoke, and reminded, "But the fee to be charged by my family is not low, five taels of silver, is the girl willing?" ”
Of course Shang Qianlan was willing, but she was happy and remembered that she would have to wait a few more months to get it, "The silver is easy to say, but I also have one thing to tell you, I have to wait for three months to come back, pay a deposit or two first, and wait for the first two days to tell you, you will let people clean up, I will give you the remaining four taels of silver, what do you think?" ”
The steward thought for a while and agreed to Shang Qianlan's request.
Shang Qianlan happily reached out to touch the money bag in her arms, but it was empty, and then she remembered that she gave Shang Zhengqi all the money on her body two days ago. It seems that she can only delay it first, and wait for her to go to Chen's house to withdraw the silver before paying the deposit.
She was just about to tell the steward to wait a moment, when she saw an arm come from behind her, and handed the steward a tael of silver.
The steward took it with a smile, and handed Shang Qianlan a wooden sign, asking her to come over directly with the wooden sign at that time.
After finishing the errand, Shang Qianlan and Yu Zishi returned to the ox cart, Yu Zishi held the rope on the cow, "Go back?" ”
"If I don't go back, I'll go to the farm tool factory to get the money." Shang Qianlan wanted to return the silver paid by Yu Zishi as soon as possible, she had already received Yu Zishi's fabrics and abacus, but they had not been paid off, and she could no longer owe the debt.
Yu Zishi was silent, drove the ox cart to South Street, and soon the two arrived at the gate of the Chen family's farm tool factory.
"Come in with me." Shang Qianlan took two steps, felt that it was inappropriate to leave Yu Zishi outside, and turned around and called him.
How can Yu Zishi be her creditor now, how can she hang it?
Yu Zishi glanced at the plaque at the gate, got up and tied the cow, and followed Shang Qianlan into the door.
"Shang girl?"
Shang Qianlan wanted to go to the account room as soon as she entered the door, but she didn't expect Steward Zhang's voice to break through the air, and following the sound, there were still two people standing next to Steward Zhang, one was Master Chen, and the other looked about the same age as Master Chen, and his clothes were much simpler than Master Chen.
Without waiting for Shang Qianlan to say hello, Steward Zhang hugged him enthusiastically, "You came just in time, it just so happened that we were talking about the cylinder car, you know the master better than me, you come and talk about it." ”
While he pulled Shang Qianlan over, he didn't forget to let people entertain Yu Zishi well, and took Yu Zishi to the backyard to rest first.
After some introduction, Shang Qianlan faintly felt that the people around Master Chen were not simple, and the questions he asked about the cylinder car were not something that ordinary people could think of, but the tone of his words did not have a commercial atmosphere, which made Shang Qianlan extremely curious about this person, but she didn't dare to ask about her identity rashly.
The man was also quite satisfied with Shang Qianlan's explanation, and praised, "The girl is really smart, I heard Master Chen say that the cylinder car was changed by you borrowing other people's drawings, and you did it at a young age, and the future is terrible hahaha." ”
"Girl, thank you, county magistrate." Steward Zhang saw that Shang Qianlan didn't move, and suddenly understood that she didn't know the identity of the person in front of her, so she reminded quickly.
It turned out to be the county magistrate, no wonder Master Chen was always echoing just now, Shang Qianlan's eyes moved, and she lowered her head and pretended to be well-behaved, "The county magistrate praises." ”
The Chen family was able to connect with the county magistrate? It seems that she was not reckless when she directly chose to cooperate with the Chen family.
"I heard Master Chen say, do you still want to improve the cylinder car? What do you think now? The county magistrate asked as if he wanted to know more.
Shang Qianlan had no choice but to introduce some of the characteristics of the windmill to the county magistrate, but she didn't say it all, and she couldn't say it until the thing was made.
"Okay, this must be on the agenda." The county magistrate nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Master Chen, "Xingwen, after the windmill is made, you will immediately send someone to call me, I will take a look first." ”
