Chapter 17: Finding a Tile Master (2)

Liu Xing'er opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but the door closed with a "bang" again.

When she looked back and saw that there were more people in the town, she became more and more anxious, and pulled on the door knocker with all her might.

The face of the grandfather in the courtyard was shriveled, his gray-white beard was sparse, his lips were chapped and pale, and when he raised his eyebrows, there were deep wrinkles on his forehead.

He asked Liang Ping: "Ping'er, do you know the wild girl outside?" ”

Liang Ping replied while putting the medicine box: "It's from the Su family." ”

Uncle Dong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The girl of the Su family actually dares to ask me to repair the inn?" It's a new thing. ”

The knock on the door became more urgent, and Liu Xing'er shouted outside: "Doctor Liang, you just talk to Uncle Dong, let me go in and say a few words, I'll leave, if you don't let me in today, I'll run to your pharmacy every day." ”

Liang Ping's brows furrowed, and Uncle Dong laughed: "It seems that this girl is a little difficult." ”

Liang Ping thought about it, and said with some embarrassment: "This girl looks savage, but she is clever, and she is also kind at heart, last time she came to my hospital for treatment, I heard that it was to save a girl in her inn ......." ”

Dong Ye interrupted him: "Deler, just tell me, you and I say so much, mainly what do you want to say to me?" ”

Liang Ping's heart tightened: "I think this girl is different from other people, Uncle Dong might as well try it when you see her." ”

Dong Ye laughed: "It's rare for you to open your mouth to Uncle Dong for a woman, of course Uncle Dong has to answer you." ”

Liang Ping said indifferently: "I just see that this girl is very stubborn, and I don't want her to quarrel with you every day." ”

Liu Xing'er was still shouting at the door, Liang Ping opened the door violently, Liu Xing'er didn't stand firm, and fell directly to the feet of Uncle Dong, who bent down and looked at her left and right, like looking at a prey.

He asked angrily: "You stinky girl, what are you looking for Uncle Dong?" ”

Liu Xing'er stood up on the ground of the bluestone, she rubbed her knees painfully, and laughed embarrassedly: "Uncle Dong is good." ”

Uncle Dong stood up straight: "Don't be hippie with me, if it weren't for my eldest nephew to say good things for you, you wouldn't be able to enter my door today!" ”

Liu Xing'er cast a grateful gaze at Liang Ping, but Liang Ping was cold, not looking at her, she retracted her gaze with interest, quickly calmed down, and then said to Uncle Dong: "I said that Dr. Liang's pharmacy is very well repaired, it turned out to be Uncle Dong's craftsmanship, I worship Uncle Su the most, and sincerely ask you to repair our Fulai Inn." ”

Dong Ye snorted coldly: "You have a little eyesight, but what about the Fulai Inn?" Why is the broken inn still closed? ”

Liu Xing'er smiled politely: "Our Fulai Inn was broken in the past, but it will be the largest inn in the Wen Dynasty for a long time." ”

Dong Ye was a little incredible, but it was just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl's family, and his tone was not small, so he couldn't help but look at her a few more times: "This old man Su is humble, why did he give birth to a girl so arrogant!" ”

Liu Xing'er replied very seriously: "I want to do the biggest in Fulai Inn, naturally I want to find the most exquisite craftsmanship, if I don't have ten dozen or ten certainty, I will never be easily offended, if you believe me today, I guarantee that Fulai Inn will never live up to Uncle Dong's craftsmanship." ”

Uncle Dong was curious about her, felt that this little girl had some courage and perseverance, and said with a smile: "Since you can find me, you should know that my salary is not low, can you afford it at Fulai Inn?" ”

Liu Xing'er heard what Dong Ye said, and felt that good things were about to come true, and she was full of joy: "The price is as you like, and we have a lot of money for you in Fulai Inn." ”

Dong Ye secretly glanced at Liang Ping, his eyes were full of smiles, and he had an idea in his heart, and bent over and stretched out an index finger to Liu Xing'er's eyes: "In the past, someone wanted to start work with me, and it was at least a hundred taels to start, I will give you a discount in the face of my eldest nephew, and you can pay me fifty taels." ”

Liu Xinger is full of confidence: "No problem." ”

Liang Ping looked at Liu Xing'er, remembered the collapse of the Fulai Inn, and was a little worried: "Even if it's fifty taels, that's not a small amount, your small inn has only improved a little, but think about it?" ”

Liu Xing'er was firm: "If I am not very sure, I don't dare to agree easily, but ......"

She flattered Uncle Chong Dong and Liang Ping smiled.

Uncle Dong frowned and asked her, "But what?" ”

Liu Xing'er was obviously weak-hearted: "But I may have to pay the fifty taels to your old man in five installments......

Uncle Dong's face changed greatly, and he was a little ugly.

Isn't this making fun of his old man?

Liu Xing'er hurriedly said: "Dong Ye, Dong Ye, don't worry, I won't lose a penny of these fifty taels to you, and I will calculate you two taels more interest every month......

Uncle Dong took out a big broom and hurried to Liu Xing'er for a while: "You wild girl, even your grandfather is teasing, look at me if I don't break your leg today, catch you in front of Old Man Su to confront him!" ”

Liu Xing'er bowed down to protect her head: "Dongye, don't be angry first, listen to me!" ”

Liang Ping saw that Liu Xing'er couldn't resist, so he hurriedly rushed up to stop Dong Ye, he turned his head sideways and peeked at Liu Xing'er, and saw her bowing behind him like a kitten, he was angry and funny, turned around and said to Uncle Dong: "Uncle Dong, don't be angry first, but listen to her finish speaking." ”

Uncle Dong was a little annoyed and angry, and chased Liu Xing'er and beat her: "Don't just protect this wild girl, see if I'm going to pick her skin today." ”

During the chase, Liang Ping inevitably took a few sticks for Liu Xing'er, Liu Xing'er saw that Liang Ping's wrist was beaten red, and she felt guilty, so she no longer hid behind Liang Ping and stood up.

"Uncle Dong, if you have to beat me, you have to listen to me before you fight, then you still think that I teased you, even if you beat me to death, I will admit it when I go to the underworld!"

Uncle Dong was panting, but finally calmed down, he pointed at Liu Xing'er with a broom: "I want to see what kind of slippery head you have in this wild girl, if you can't say anything, I will beat you to death." ”

Liu Xing'er glanced at Liang Ping, took a long breath, and tried to stabilize her emotions.

"Uncle Dong, if I'm not mistaken, you haven't done a few jobs since you came back from the palace."

Uncle Dong didn't bother to look at her: "Even if it is, so what?" ”

Liu Xing'er looked at him fixedly: "Uncle Dong, as a junior, I take the liberty of saying, as a craftsman, what is a craftsman?" ”

Uncle Dong snorted coldly: "You yellow-haired girl really don't know the height of the sky, you have the heart to ask me questions, I don't want to be tied to that subsection, the so-called craftsman, that is a brick and tile, a chisel and a brick, a lifetime of hard work is in it, among which all kinds of hardships are self-aware, more are people who have spent their lives doing nothing, and there are even more crazy people, and their wives are scattered and betrayed from their relatives. ”

Uncle Dong's thoughts are thousands, his eyes are far away, and he remembers a lot of past events.

Liu Xing'er sighed: "Craftsmen have been pursuing perfection or more perfection all their lives, presumably Uncle Dong has also focused on tile work for decades to have such an achievement, but because of the renovation of several palaces, he wasted his life's hard work, is it worth it?" ”

Uncle Dong's chest rose and fell one after another, his eyes dodged, and he unconsciously raised his voice: "I am the most qualified master of the tile team, who said that my craft will be wasted!" ”

Liu Xinger used to be the marketing planning manager of the hotel, managing more than 100 people under her hands, and she had that kind of momentum in her bones that was not angry but powerful, pressing step by step.

"If I'm not wrong, Uncle Dong because of the repair of the palace for the palace, so far it is difficult to lower his posture and repair the tiles for ordinary people's homes, even if there are people who worship, because of the high wages and retreat, Uncle Dong relied on his own craft to live a life without worry, but in the end, but because of this, Uncle Dong did not feel pity?"

Uncle Dong was told the central matter by Liu Xing'er, and he didn't dare to look at Liu Xing'er directly.

"You talk nonsense! You're talking crazy! ”

Liu Xing'er didn't mean to hurt the old man, so she lowered her head a little ashamedly.

"Uncle Dong, I really didn't mean to offend you, I think there are many people around this stone town who worship you, but there are a few that can make a move is a hundred taels, if you take over the work can let everyone pay off many times, the premise is that the appropriateness of each delivery will receive some profits, compared to a one-time delivery of one hundred taels, I believe that ordinary business people are acceptable, and this is also a disguised way to bring you more benefits!"

Liang Ping heard it in his heart, and felt more and more that this Liu Xing'er was unusual.

"That's a good idea."

Liu Xing'er nodded.

"In this way, it will not belittle the craftsmanship of the uncle, secondly, it will provide an opportunity for people who worship the uncle's and have limited financial resources, and third, the craftsmanship of the uncle's will be the best spread."

Uncle Dong also seemed to be discouraged.

"But who can guarantee that I will get all my money back later?"

Liu Xing'er smiled.

"You can rest assured, I have thought of these for you, you only need to sign a deed with the other party, both parties sign and draw a pledge, clearly indicate in the deed, there must be a real estate shop or field as a mortgage, and the remaining silver taels must be paid within the specified days, if it is overdue, the interest will be stacked according to the number of days."

Uncle Dong has been locked up in this cage-like courtyard by the eyes of the world for a long time, and his temper is strange because of this.

Hearing Liu Xing'er's words, he was moved, thinking that he would be able to climb the wall and make tiles without any burden in the future, and he actually had some expectations, but he was afraid of face, and he didn't want to admit that he was persuaded by Liu Xinger's words, and he was a little hard-mouthed.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm looking at my eldest nephew, otherwise I would have knocked you out the door a long time ago!"

Liu Xing'er is a smart person, as long as the other party hints at her, she will understand, just pursed her lips and smiled.
