Chapter 35: I disagree
The more Daddy Gu thought about it, the more he felt that the sixty taels would definitely not come out, "Yu Datie, it was wrong for the third child to take the job without your consent, but he also thought that the person was in a hurry, and you were not there, so he took the job." Now that people have run away, we can't do anything. You are his master, so you can't be tolerant and tolerant? Do you want to make the third child pay for the whole knife? Speaking of which, you're not a good person, are you? Why don't we lose your pig iron? Daddy Gu bluntly said the solution, and he didn't want to fight with Yu at all.
Yu Datie saw that the person in charge was coming, and he didn't want to fight with the He family, but he also heard that the Gu family didn't want to pay more, "Brother Gu! Your third child has been in my shop for more than half a year, and I haven't treated him badly! My housekeeping skills have been handed over to him, otherwise he would not be able to fight the big knife, this big knife is not so much sixty taels of silver, in fact, this piece of pig iron is precious! If you want to lose sixty taels, so be it! For the sake of honesty and honesty as my apprentice, I will accept him fifty taels of silver! If I lose, I will lose something. Yu Datie waved his hand, pretending to be helpless to back down. In fact, Yu Datie was also very jealous in his heart, he had been fighting iron for so many years, but he had not been able to hit a big knife, Gu Chenglian had only studied for more than half a year, and he could hit a big knife alone. In this shop, he is determined not to let him stay anymore.
When Gu Chengyu heard it, he felt funny, who would believe it? This Yu Da Tie is really greedy, he must want to take advantage of this matter to take care of the family's money! Gu Chenglian also told Yu to choke on iron, who is this deceiving? The contents of the blacksmith's shop were not worth the fifty taels of silver, and it was not worth adding this piece of pig iron. This Yu Datie, usually he refuses to teach him well, or he secretly learns it on the side. Yu striking iron's craftsmanship is not good, he can't do large and complex iron tools, he has been doing it for more than 20 years, the shop is still rented, and it can be seen that there is no money left. This time, I must have wanted to catch his mistake and bite him hard.
Gu Cheng trembled with incorruptibility, fifty taels of silver, how could the Gu family take it out? Gu Chengyu walked up to Gu Chenglian at this time and pulled him. Whispering a few words beside him, Gu Chenglian's eyes lit up after listening, and then walked into the house. After a while, he walked out, still holding a small piece of iron lump in his hand.
"Master, we've been a master and apprentice for more than half a year. When the master accepted me as an apprentice, I was grateful in my heart, after all, it was the craft of eating. Today's matter is that I am not right, and I will call that person if I don't pay the money. It shouldn't be that the master is not there, so he makes the decision without authorization, uses the master's treasure, and takes the job privately. But how much silver that piece of pig iron is worth, the master must know in his heart. I finished the knife, and there was still a small piece left, and I brought it back, thinking that it was too little, and it was useless to keep it. The master doesn't say that if you say the fifty taels of silver, how much should you lose, let's discuss it again. Gu Chenglian said according to Gu Chengyu's words, and he also held his breath in his heart, Yu Datie didn't care about the master-apprentice relationship at all, but they still got along for so long.
Yu Datie originally wanted to bite fifty taels to death, but who would have thought that Gu Chenglian would have a small piece left. If this small piece is shown to a shop that also strikes iron, it will be recognized by Zhun Bao, that is, it is better than ordinary iron! The sixty taels that the man said were indeed very expensive, although they did not pay in the end.
He Shi saw that things had taken a turn for the better, and he was even more energetic, "I said Yu hit the iron!" If this iron is taken to another house for identification, it may not even be worth a tael of silver! You've got to think about it. ”
Yu Datie originally listened to Gu Chenglian talk about apprentices, and he was still a little weak in his heart, when he recruited apprentices, he actually wanted to recruit someone who didn't cost money and could help with the work, but he didn't really want to find an apprentice, he didn't teach him any skills.
"Honest! Since you say so, the master doesn't feel good, so you can give fifteen taels! The rest of the silver is also considered to be our master-apprentice relationship, and when we go elsewhere in the future, we can't be impulsive! ”
Gu Chengyu felt that Yu Da Tie's face was really thick, he was exposed, and his face did not change, and he even wanted to quit the third brother, but his third brother couldn't do it anymore.
Gu Chenglian didn't feel good either, and it seemed that the blacksmith shop couldn't go.
"The rest of the iron, fifteen taels will definitely not be successful, regardless of whether the iron is worth the silver. You see, our Gu family is not well-off, can we be accommodating? I really can't take out fifteen taels! Daddy Gu continued to bargain, hoping that there would be less.
"Brother Gu, you also know that my blacksmith shop doesn't have business every day, and after doing it for so many years, I haven't made much money, and I really lost fifteen taels. What's more, Chenglian has been studying with me for more than half a year, right? I usually teach him with all my heart, but there is no credit and hard work, right? You are also considerate and considerate of my difficulties! "Humph! He said from the friendship between master and apprentice, I taught you to strike iron, but you want me to accompany Lao Ben, this can't be justified, right?
Father Gu was silent, took out his cigarette stick, and smoked. If this thing is said, it will definitely damage the reputation of the third child, and no matter how you say it, there is a master-apprentice relationship, and it is not easy to force each other tightly, but fifteen taels is too much, if you take it out, there will be no silver left in the family, and the fourth child's scar removal cream has not yet landed.
Gu Chengyu saw that things were frozen there, and discussed for a long time, but Yu Datie refused to back down, so he had to run to Daddy Gu's side to give advice, whispered, and asked Daddy Gu to do what he said. No way, no one listens to the words of human novels! It's still the most suitable for Daddy to go out.
"I said Yu Da Tie, how much silver is this iron worth, you know in your heart, we will pay ten taels at most, if you don't agree, let's report to the official, anyway, this knife was taken by someone else, and it has nothing to do with the third child. If it is reported to the official, how much silver can the iron pay, so that the county's blacksmith will know at a glance, what's the place? Do you agree or disagree? Father Gu was also out of the way, gritting his teeth and replying. In fact, let him go to the official, he didn't dare, that is, as Xiaobao said, to scare and scare Yu to strike iron, and reported to the official, the third child may not be able to go unpunished, after all, he embezzled the piece of iron privately.
Yu Datie saw that he really couldn't take advantage of more, so he had to give up, he was also afraid of seeing the official! "Okay, since Brother Gu said so, it must be to give face, then ten taels!"
"What? Do you really want to give ten taels of silver? I don't agree, I gave ten taels, how can we have any money left? That's white silver, but it can't be cheap. Dad, do you want to use the money earned by your husband to subsidize the third child? Over the years, Xianggong has been tired and tired, and if all the money he earns is lost, how can Erlang and Sanlang talk about kissing in the future? Daddy! You can't just care about the third child? Xianggong is also your son, you can't help but think about us! When He heard that he really had to pay ten taels, it was like a fried pot on the spot, ten taels of silver could marry two daughters-in-law, and his father-in-law was too partial, regardless of whether they lived or died in the second room. He couldn't bear it anymore, and howled while patting his thigh. Even the grandchildren, who were not allowed to come out of the room, propped up the windows and looked into the courtyard.
