Chapter 44: The Handyman (Part II)
"I won't tell you......" Sankui laughed twice, "It's a good job to go to Lin Ji to do handymanship, but his perfumer is too sour and not authentic, for fear that the craft will be stolen and learned, and the handyman is like a thief, and he will be blown away in two days with a little aura, and he is too stupid and can't work, so she beats and scolds...... No, since opening Chun'er, six or seven handymen have been replaced in eight or nine months...... I know the details, and I shook my head when I heard that I went to his house, I also see that you are very excited, but I don't understand incense, I think she won't guard against you......" and sighed, "Even if you make a lot of money to eat and drink, it's better than staying like this." ”
Mu Wanqiu smiled dumbly, I'm afraid that now the whole Shuoyang City knows that she doesn't understand incense!
“…… I could really try this, and it became a reward for you. ”
The perfumer has a bad temper, she should serve the mother of Chunxianglou in the previous life, she still has this patience and eyesight, besides, with the peerless fragrance secrets, she has no intention of stealing anyone's craft at all!
"Good! It's so decided......" Sankui patted his thigh and stood up, "You can rest early today, and the little Ming'er will take you to try it when he is busy in the morning......" Pointing to the book in Mu Wanqiu's hand, "Listen to the small sentence, you should read less of that thing, that is, it costs eyes and lights, and it can't be eaten as a meal, depending on the small one, it's better to throw it away......" muttering in his mouth, Sankui picked up the big copper teapot, remembered something, his hand stopped on the doorknob again, and turned around, "Don't say that the little one didn't remind you, the white girl should be more careful when she went there, When the perfumer of the Lin family is working, she doesn't call you, but don't go to the front, be careful that she relies on you to learn the craft......
“…… Perfumers and handymen are so different, is it that scary? Mu Wanqiu burst out laughing.
"Is it that scary?" Sankui simply put down the teapot and turned around, "...... Yes! Absolutely! He spat and flew, "Don't look at the people in Shuoyang City, even a three-year-old child can read a few words, but the real masters, not to mention Master Guqin, even like Master Pei of Yao Ji, there are few Shuoyang!" He pointed out the window, "Shuoyang is full of this kind of perfumer who has no grade and is not in the stream, the competition is fierce, not relying on the secret recipe in her hand to make her a prestige there, I am afraid that she will be the same as the white girl, nest here, and even find a decent job!" ”
His voice stopped abruptly and looked at Mu Wanqiu in disdain.
“…… Doesn't it mean that Douxiang will be able to produce many talents every year? Suddenly didn't hear his last sentence, Mu Wanqiu's eyes fell on the book in his hand, and asked lightly.
“…… Those who have a little future have gone to the great cause. Hehe laughed twice, and Sankui sighed, "If you want to really learn perfumery, you have to go to the great cause......
Seeing that Mu Wanqiu didn't react, Sankui casually took the door and walked out, listening to an inaudible sigh from inside the door, Sankui shook his head.
……
Glancing at Mu Wanqiu's slender little body, the proprietor Lin Hai turned his head and entered the house, and Sister-in-law Lin frowned.
“…… I do rough work at home, and I have a lot of energy. Mu Wanqiu quietly put a pair of delicate little hands behind her back.
Yu Guang looked at the pair of white and tender little hands, Sankui's face turned red, and he closed his mouth tightly and did not speak.
"Move that fragrant luo to the shelf...... Sister-in-law Lin pointed to the wet incense strip that had just been connected, and then pointed to the one-person-high incense drying rack behind Mu Wanqiu.
Xiangluo is made of white pine wood, three and a half feet long, slightly wider than a pillar of incense, and there is a thin gauze with shampoo yellow on it, which is full of wet incense, about three hundred branches, plus the weight of the frame, at least thirty or forty catties, looking at Mu Wanqiu's slender little body, Sankui's forehead instantly oozed beads of sweat the size of beans.
Although she is thin and weak, Mu Wanqiu has always practiced with martial artists, and she can't compare with Mu Zhong, her father's specially trained personal guard, but it is not difficult to do these rough jobs.
“…… You stand back a bit. Spread out her hands, holding the two horizontal edges that were rubbed brightly, Mu Wanqiu tried to wipe it, it was okay, she took a breath, and was just about to exert herself, when she caught a glimpse of Sankui with her arms open and the old hen protecting her behind her like a chick, she held back the urge to laugh, turned her head and said.
"If it really doesn't work, forget it......" Sankui, who has always had a sharp quarrel, snorted for a long time, he was really afraid that Mu Wanqiu would spill this Luo Xiang and couldn't afford to pay for it.
“…… I can do it. Mu Wanqiu nodded at him calmly.
“…… It's true? Sankui flashed to the side in disbelief, his hands unconsciously open, protecting the other side of Xiangluo.
Mu Wanqiu smiled sincerely.
This Sankui, don't look at him as a little powerful, a little stingy, a little rude, and a little verbose, but he is an out-and-out enthusiast.
will not be the red sleeves in the previous life, looking meticulous, loyal and kind-hearted, but betrayed her at the last moment and put her to death, thinking of the tragic death in that life, Mu Wanqiu's heart throbbed.
In this life, even if it is cloth and light food every day, and the people who come and go are humble and crude people like Zhuzi and Sankui, it is a hundred times stronger than the previous life as a famous prostitute in Qinglou, a daily incense car and BMW, in and out of princes and generals, and eating all the delicacies of the mountains and seas!
Standing in front of the incense stand, Mu Wanqiu adjusted her posture, and in Sankui's breath-holding, she slowly lifted Xiangluo above her head, raised her feet and climbed onto the small stool fixed on the low incense stand, calmly put Yiluo wet incense on the incense stand, and moved the position again, put it upright, then clapped her hands and jumped off Ma Deng'er lightly, "...... How is it? Mu Wanqiu slowly came to Sister-in-law Lin.
Sister-in-law Lin looked at her with her eyes open, speechless.
“…… I said yes. After a long time, Sankui came in one breath, completely forgetting the embarrassment just now, and he strode to Sister-in-law Lin, "...... Don't look at her small size, but she has a lot of energy! He added, "There are few snacks, and you won't lose money if you live, but you hire her to pick up a big bargain......
When she's an animal!
Listening to Sankui's words, Mu Wanqiu was angry and laughing, and her face tightened and she didn't speak.
She didn't know that in Shuoyang's labor market, the owner recruited workers, and the degree of selection was really similar to picking livestock, and every owner hoped to spend the least amount of money to hire people with the lowest wages, the hardest work, the least food, and the least picky housing.
In their eyes, raising a long-term worker is like raising an animal!
“…… Where are you from? Sister-in-law Lin couldn't see joy or sorrow on her face.
"People from Guangling County...... Mu Wanqiu replied crisply.
“…… You're the little girl who can't even tell the difference between the single incense and the spices? ”
Suddenly hearing a voice behind him, Mu Wanqiu turned around.
At some point, a woman in her twenties, thin-lipped and almond-eyed, and handsome looked stood behind her.
