Chapter 12 Growing the Carpenter's Shop

"Yes, Shaodong, within ten days, Xiaohe and I can barely make a hundred pieces without sleep, but Madame, you are pregnant, and we can't stop for ten days!" When it came to this, Xiao Jiang was also worried.

Qi Yao had also thought of this a long time ago.

"Our carpenter shop has been in a carpenter shop for so many years, big or small, and the business is not good or bad, in this embarrassing situation, it's time to change."

When Xiao Jiang heard this, he knew that Qi Yao had a plan in his heart, "What does the young lady mean?" ”

Seeing Xiao Jiang Xiaohe looking at himself expectantly, Qi Yao didn't sell it, and said directly, "I plan to expand our shop a little more, at least double it." ”

"What, ma'am, then we're going to use all the money we've earned so hard." As the righteous sons of the Gu family, although the two have never been short of food and clothing, they can't have an idea of spending so much money for a while.

Qi Yao has a long-term vision and knows that the two of them are not at ease, "Stay in the green mountains, and you are not afraid of no firewood." Not only do I have to expand the lumber shop, but I also need to recruit more carpenters, and in the future only the two of you will be able to do it. ”

Although the two of them hesitated, it was not the two of them who were in charge, so they gritted their teeth and agreed.

"Xiao Jiang, how many carpenters are there in the neighborhood?"

"There are five people in total, but the third child of the Li family has average skills, so he can only do a rough job, Liu Mazi is too lazy to do it, I'm afraid it won't work. There are only three of us that we can use. ”

"Three, no more, no less, Xiao Jiang, you have time to call them all over, and our Gu family's timber shop will hire these three people." After a little thought, Qi Yao decided.

"Okay."

"By the way, Xiaojiang Xiaohe, what is the monthly salary of the two of you? How much do carpenters in the city usually get paid? After Qi Yao said everything, he remembered another big thing, how can he do things without money.

"Because the two of us grew up in the shop, my wife is sympathetic to 100 yuan a month, and the average carpenter in the city only earns 70 or 80 yuan a month for doing his own work, but the Tan family's timber shop opposite is rich and rich, and the ordinary carpenter is also a hundred yuan a month." The two of them thought for a long time and said truthfully.

Qi Yao thought for a while, and then said, "You two are no better than outsiders, one hundred and twenty wen a month in the future, and as for the new recruits, one hundred wen a month, so as not to rob the opposite side of the business and be hated." ”

"Okay, okay, thank you, young lady." The salary increased, and the two of them were also very happy, and hurriedly went to work separately.

Xiao Jiang went to recruit three other workers, and Xiao Jiang went to great fanfare to find craftsmen, expand the size of the carpenter shop and start buying wood.

As the days passed, the business of the carpenter shop was also in full swing, and there were many customers who came to place orders during the expansion of the carpenter shop, Xiaojiang Xiaohe had to make wood products and supervise the construction of the house, even if there were three carpenters, they couldn't be busy, Wei Xiaoju and Aunt Chen couldn't help much, Qi Yao always came to the carpenter shop these days.

The stipulated ten-day period came as scheduled, and on this day, Qi Yao also came to the carpenter shop to help, because there were so many people who came to pick up the goods, so even if there were five guys, they couldn't be busy.

"Here's a little eagle carved for you, ten cents."

"Okay."

"Shopkeeper Tong, this is your order for a pear blossom wooden table, one or two silver, the deposit is not refundable, you have carried it."

"Okay, I didn't expect your shop to be seen in the past few days, this pomp is so big."

"You've praised it, you've praised it."

Qi Yao stood in front of the counter, greeting people while picking up the goods, and mingled like a fish in water in the crowd.

Originally, because of the expenses in the carpenter's shop in the past few days, Qi Yao's family had no money, and they still owed a lot, but today people continue to pick up the goods, and now it is only noon, and the money owed has earned enough. And half of the orders didn't come to pick up, I'm afraid that I will make a lot of money, and a few guys looked at Qi Yao with admiration.

……

Yamen.

The solemn entrance was calm, but after a while, a woman came out scolding, her clothes were messy, and the whole person revealed a sense of embarrassment.

"Damn Qi Yao, you little slut will definitely kill you next time." It turned out that this woman was Gu Qingru who was imprisoned, Gu Qingru was imprisoned because she framed Qi Yao last time, and she was just released today.

Gu Qingru finally went home, but found that Li Chang was not there, and she couldn't help but feel depressed, she had been locked up in prison for so many days, and he didn't come to pick him up when he was released from prison, but he was not at home.

After changing into a set of clean and tidy clothes, the more Gu Qingru thought about it, the more angry she became, and she thought that the dead ghost might go somewhere to be happy, so she went to the street to find him.

It can be regarded as Gu Qingru's good, after going to the street, he actually found Li Chang in less than a stick of incense, and the shrew came up at that moment, and hurriedly went up to grab his ear, "Okay, you Li Chang, I am suffering in prison, and you are free on this street." ”

Li Chang heard that the Gu family's timber shop business was booming in the past few days, and the thief's heart was not dead, so he had been watching the situation of the timber shop in the city, and forgot about Gu Qingru's imprisonment.

"Lady, lady, listen to me, I'm not out to get away."

Gu Qingru was not fooled, and twisted his ears hard, "You said what you came out for, it's reasonable not to pick me up." ”

Li Chang shuddered in pain at the moment, "Ouch, lady, you light, I'm really going to do business." ”

"What are you going to do?" Gu Qingru sneered.

Li Chang knew that Gu Qingru didn't believe him, so he hurriedly said, "Lady, let me tell you, the Gu family's timber shop has been in the limelight these days, and the business is very good." ”

"You liar, that timber shop has always been half-dead, how can it suddenly sound so good." Gu Qingru obviously didn't believe it.

Li Chang knew that this would be the case, and said, "I know you don't believe it, so let's go and whisper now that what I said is true or false." ”

Seeing that Li Chang was so sure, Gu Qingru couldn't help but believe it, and hurriedly rushed to the Gu family's timber shop with Li Chang.

Just stood outside the timber shop, found that there was already a queue of people, dozens of meters away, and then look at the shop, than before the expansion of a full accompaniment, but also the shop more repairs, the whole revealed a breath of atmosphere.

"My God, did my mother and that slut go to rob the money bank?" Gu Qingru has been in prison for the past few days, so naturally she doesn't know anything.

But Li Chang is different, he has inquired clearly from Qi Yao's selling to making orders in the past few days, he was originally greedy for the shop, and now that he has this pomp, he can still let go, and he is still the son-in-law of the Gu family.

At this time, he was surprised to see Gu Qingru, and hurriedly went up and said everything he knew.

Gu Qingru didn't believe it at first, that little slut usually knows how to cry when something happens, how could he suddenly have such intelligence and talent to bring this shop back to life. But the scene in front of her was in front of her, she couldn't help but believe it, and that day in the court, Qi Yao was like a spring, maybe this scene was really made by her.

Seeing these people entering one by one, the two looked at each other, and they saw greed in each other's eyes, and then the two of them left quietly.

"Lady, what should we do now?" Leaving the store, Li Chang immediately asked Gu Qingru.
