As Jiangxi said, when the Laba Festival was approaching, the blacksmith's family came to the door in person.

It was the blacksmith himself, his daughter-in-law had been waiting for the Jiang family to come to the door at home these days, but she had been waiting left and right, it had been almost half a month, and the Jiang family was not worried at all as if there was no such thing.

Just a few days ago, his daughter-in-law came to the Jiang family to squat outside the door for a while, and the Jiang family was doing daily things, and no one was in a hurry on their faces.

His daughter-in-law had no choice, so he asked him to come over in person to apologize.

After all, if this drags on any longer, it will soon be the market before the end of the year, and then the Jiang family will be able to find another blacksmith to make it, and the copper furnace will be rotten in their house.

Another point is that in the next market, their family is still waiting for the money to buy New Year's goods.

His daughter-in-law is a good-looking person, and it is definitely impossible for her to come over and apologize herself, so she handed over the matter to him.

Before leaving, his daughter-in-law did not forget to advise: "Remember, the price can't be too low, the Jiang family is rich!" ”

The blacksmith shook his head, disagreeing with his daughter-in-law's idea.

This thing, what price it should be, if you cheat someone, will people come to you next time?

Stretched out his hand and knocked on the door of their courtyard in Jiangxi.

After a while, a young man-like person came over to open the door, it was Yuan Xiu.

"May I ask who you are?" Yuan Xiu didn't know the blacksmith, and there was doubt in his eyes.

The blacksmith was a little embarrassed on his face, thinking that people came to pick up things before, but he didn't give them, and now he came cheekily again, would he be kicked out.

pursed his lips, and a cold wind blew outside, and the blacksmith's body trembled, revealing the copper furnace he was holding in his hand behind him.

"Oh, I see, you're the blacksmith." As soon as Yuan Xiu saw the copper furnace, he immediately knew the identity of the blacksmith, and the gaze that looked at him was not so friendly.

"What are you doing here, we can't afford that copper stove made by your family."

At the beginning, Jiangxi personally went to the door to get it, but he didn't bring the copper furnace back, and the lion of the family opened his mouth and directly said that he wanted a tael of silver. Now I know that I was wrong, and I want to sell it to them, but how can it be so easy.

Jiang Xi must have been snubbed last time, and he had to get the field back.

At the same time, Yuan Xiu was still full of admiration for Jiangxi in her heart, she had said before that the blacksmith's family would come to the door by herself, and now she really came.

Now that the thing had been seen, the blacksmith simply brought it to the front.

Carrying the small ring next to the copper furnace, the blacksmith rubbed his hands and took another breath of hot air before he spoke:

"Last time, I knew it was us who was wrong, and I came to apologize this time."

The blacksmith touched the copper furnace and said, "If this thing comes at the market price, it will cost you a penny of silver, and I will charge you eighty wen now." I paid 20 wen for the deposit before, but now I only need to give another 60 wen, and this copper furnace is yours, little brother, what do you think of this? ”

Sixty texts? This price is really not expensive, and this thing is made of brass, if it is really only for eighty wen, then it is almost only for materials.

"You come in first, it's cold outside."

Yuan Xiu turned sideways to let the blacksmith in.

In the middle room, Jiang Xi was roasting a charcoal basin and sitting at a table to write.

The last time she drew a picture, she went to the town to buy it, these days are really boring, there is no mobile phone, no TV, except for embroidery, she can only come here to write and draw.

Practicing calligraphy is what Jiangxi is most concerned about these days.

If she wants to develop this family well, and wants to become a role model for women in business, then she has to write this handwriting well. In the future, if her family's shop opens, she can also make a bookkeeper or something, and when she signs a treaty with others, the words she writes will at least not make people feel embarrassed.

The door was opened from the outside, and Jiang Xi saw the blacksmith and the copper furnace in his hand at a glance.

"Huh? Uncle, what are you? ”

The blacksmith's old face couldn't help but blush.

"Girl Jiang, I couldn't help it last time, it was our family who asked for too much money. This time, I came with a copper stove, just hoping that you can buy something, and the price, I just told this little brother, as long as you give another sixty yuan. ”

Sixty texts? Even if you add the money I gave me before, it's only 80 yuan, if you know 80 yuan, it may only be the material money for this stove, and the wages are gone.

"Uncle, sit down first, we're not busy talking about buying a stove."

Jiang Xi came out with a stool and asked the blacksmith to sit down.

The blacksmith stood in place and stiffened a little, what did Jiang Xi mean by this, didn't they want this stove either? Then he has been doing it for so long, won't he even have to pay for the raw materials?

"You sit down first, it's not easy to talk while standing. I mainly want to ask, does she know that you sold your daughter-in-law like this? ”

The blacksmith was stunned.

"This ...... I made this thing myself, and I agreed to sell it, without her ......"

"That's not good, uncle, who in your family doesn't know? If she doesn't agree, we'll buy the stove for sixty dollars, and she's not allowed to come to our house to make trouble."

We don't spend money on things to find guilt. ”

"That'...... So what's going to happen to this thing? I brought the stove with me. The blacksmith looked embarrassed and helpless, this stove can't be sold at a higher price, except for the Jiang family, who else would want this kind of thing.

But if you go back and tell his wife, his wife will not agree, she is a person who can pit a little money. You must know that you have been working for so long and you can't make any money, and you will definitely not let him sell it.

And he also knows that their family is having a difficult time this year, and the New Year will end soon, and the family doesn't even have any money to spare. His daughter-in-law is like this, in fact, she is also thinking about this family.

It was very tangled, and the blacksmith didn't know what to do for a while.

At this moment, Jiangxi proposed a solution.

"Actually, it's not impossible to give you more silver. However, before the beginning of spring, I still need twenty of these workmanship stoves, and of course, the price can still be calculated according to the original penny.

There are twenty-one in total, which adds up to two taels of silver.

I can give you half of this money first, but if you can't get it out by then, then don't blame me for reporting to the official.

Well, these are two notes and one tael of silver and eighty copper coins, you can look at it yourself. ”

After speaking, Jiangxi pushed over a note, which was clearly written: Before the beginning of spring, twenty copper furnaces were set for two taels of silver, and if the copper furnaces could not be handed over when due, all the silver plus interest would be returned. If the copper furnace is delivered when it is due, Jiangxi will have to pay the remaining one or two pieces of silver.

The blacksmith looked at the note, and his mind was completely confused.

Jiang Xi observed for a while, and suddenly remembered that the blacksmith didn't seem to be literate.

"If you don't recognize it, you can go to the town and ask someone, it's impossible for me to write this handwriting."

"No need, I'll sign it!"

They are all from the same village, and the blacksmith still trusts the character of the Jiang family, and the most important thing is that the one or two pieces of silver are placed next to them, which is indescribably tempting.

The blacksmith signed the note, and went back with one of them and the tael of silver and eighty copper coins.

When he left, Yuan Xiu asked suspiciously: "Xi'er, when did you write the note, why don't I know." ”

The corners of Jiang Xi's mouth hooked, and he smiled: "It's when you went out, seeing that you haven't come back for so long, I guess they should have come to the door." And the one who will come to apologize must be this honest blacksmith, and his daughter-in-law will not pull down her face. ”

"Awesome! You're so smart. As he spoke, the conversation changed, "It's just that what are you doing when you buy so many copper stoves, is it possible that you still have to look good at home?" ”

Jiang Xi rolled his eyes, "Do you think it's possible?" I was thinking, our family can't just sit back and eat nothing. While no one is making hot pot yet, I plan to wait for the beginning of spring next year to open a hot pot restaurant in the town.

When the time comes, grow some vegetables at home, buy some chickens and ducks, and buy some meat from Zhang's butcher, and the store will be able to sustain itself. ”

"Open a hot pot restaurant?"

"Not bad! Of course, you can also sell some other snacks inside, or you can do it yourself. ”

"What is self-help?" Yuan Xiu scratched his head, how could he feel what Jiang Xi said, he became more and more incomprehensible.

"You'll find out when the time comes."

Put away the note, Jiang Xi plans to take advantage of the next time he goes to the market, he will go to the town to take care of the shop, and when spring begins, he will put it down.

Now there are dozens of taels of silver at home, and a shop should be enough.

Now that the copper stove is in hand, Jiangxi has turned on the hot pot mode.

First went to the field with Yuan Xiu, plucked two lettuce, got some cabbage and radish, and pinched a little pea tip. When I got home, I took out the wide flour and soaked it, cut a large part of the sausage, took a few pieces of bacon and cut it into small pieces. In addition, fungus and kelp are also soaked.

The lack of potatoes and lotus roots is Jiangxi's biggest regret.

Their family is not very good at eating spicy, so Jiangxi simply made a soup pot first, wanting to see if there is a chance to get some butter to make red soup in the future.

She remembered that the nomads in the northwest seemed to be allowed to eat beef, and they had to wait until the winter was over.

If you want to open a hot pot restaurant, that thing is a must-have.

After boiling the soup pot, Jiang Xi poured all the soup into the edge of the copper stove, added coals in the middle, and it was ready to cook in a short time.

The family sat around the table, scalding the hot pot.

"Don't say it, this meat made by Xi'er is really delicious, I have never eaten such delicious meat in my life." The old man picked a piece of sauce meat, and his eyes widened.

Jiang Xi pointed to the bacon and said, "Master, if you try this again, it will definitely be more delicious." ”

"Gotcha! Taste it...... Well! This one is even more delicious than that, and even if you sell this thing, there will definitely be a lot of people who want to buy it. ”

The corners of Jiang Xi's mouth suddenly opened, and at the same time, Yuan Xiu, who was eating, also gave her a thumbs up, saying that it was really feasible to open a store.

Jiangxi thought to himself, that's because you haven't eaten the red oil hot pot yet, and that thing is even more delicious!
