24. Selling farming tools
"Second uncle, why are you here?" Chu Jiao'er hurriedly got up and walked to the door to greet her: "Dazhu!" Go pour a bowl of tea! ”
Dazhu hurriedly got up and picked up the teapot, found a clean tea bowl and put it in front of Zhang Erbo: "Uh-uh." ”
"Is it today...... Chu Jiao'er thought that this second uncle had noticed something...... At this time, I was a little panicked.
However, Zhang Erbo said: "I came to ask you, do you sell the rake made of bamboo?" ”
These words made Chu Jiao'er stunned.
"I've heard that the plow made of big bamboo is fast and can plow the land without oxen, and there are many women and few men in our village, if your rake can be made and sold......"
"Sell, sell, sell! We sell! Chu Jiao'er interrupted Zhang Erbo's words: "Actually, when Dazhu made this rake at the beginning, I thought that this thing is easy to make and convenient, faster than ox ploughing, if everyone in the village uses this rake, it can save a lot of effort." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Erbo nodded with satisfaction: "Then how much silver are you going to sell?" ”
Chu Jiao'er pursed her lips, stretched out a finger but silently put it down: "How much do you think this thing can be worth?" ”
Looking at Chu Jiao'er's movements, Zhang Erbo raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said: "Dazhu is a carpenter in the village, and his craftsmanship is recognized by everyone in the village, and this thing itself is very practical on the plane, I think." Zhang Erbo raised a finger.
"One or two?" Chu Jiao'er guessed.
"Ten taels!" Zhang Erbo said lightly.
Zhang Dazhu on the side was shocked.
One tael of silver is enough for a farmer to eat for two months, and these ten taels of silver can be used by a large number of people for a year!
"Second Uncle...... Are you serious? Chu Jiao'er didn't expect this second uncle to lift this ploughing tool like this.
"Of course, that's what I think the price is, and how much you sell it in the end is your business." After Zhang Erbo finished speaking, he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
Hearing Zhang Erbo's words, the husband and wife glanced at each other, obviously Dazhu didn't expect it to be so valuable, and the original price Chu Jiao'er first set was one tael of silver, but one tael of silver is already a huge amount of money for ordinary farmers, if it really sells for ten taels of silver......
I guess no one can afford it......
"If you set the price, make one and send it to the village chief's house, and he will give the silver." After Zhang Erbo finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Dazhu, and then asked, "Is this really what you made yourself?" ”
Zhang Dazhu looked at Chu Jiao'er silently, the latter shook his head, and when he was about to shake his head, he looked at Chu Jiao'er and nodded.
This shaking is not shaking the head, nodding is not nodding, Zhang Erbo has his own understanding in his heart after looking at Chu Jiao'er.
"Okay, I'm done with the matter, no matter how much you set the price, make one first and give it to the village chief." After speaking, Zhang Erbo got up and prepared to walk out.
And Chu Jiao'er hurriedly got up: "That second uncle, you go slowly!" ”
"Don't send it, just keep doing what you do." Zhang Erbo's expression softened a little.
Chu Jiao'er's face turned red when she heard this, thinking that this second uncle had misunderstood something, so she hurriedly said, "That...... I'm teaching Daitake Sign Language, which can be used to communicate. ”
"Oh? Sign language? Can it be used for communication? Zhang Erbo raised his eyebrows, can a dumb person still communicate? This is the first time I've heard of it.
"It's to use gestures to express the meaning of speaking, so that we can know what he is going to say with the gestures made by Dazhu." Chu Jiao'er said, pulling Dazhu down to her side: "Dazhu, show the second uncle." ”
Zhang Dazhu made a gesture when he heard this.
Chu Jiao'er on the side hurriedly explained: "The meaning of this gesture is: Thank you for your hard work." ”
This made Zhang Erbo look stunned.
