Chapter 268: Pulling
Anyway......
Gu Qing positioned his furniture on the word "boutique" at the beginning, and Gu Guozhang's craftsmanship was indeed worthy of these two words, so it was enough for them to only do business with a small number of people.
Since this day, more and more people have come to Gu's house to order furniture, but because there is still a backlog of orders in front of them, Gu Guozhang can only give up after weighing some confirmed lists, so Yang Xiuyun is not a pity.
However, Yang Xiuyun also knows that Gu Guozhang is really too busy to be alone, so he can't be divided into two halves, right?
Gu Guozhang was busy, and he didn't stop until Gu Qing officially took a holiday on the day of the New Year.
During the meal, seeing that Gu Guozhang had lost a little weight these days, Gu Qing was a little distressed, and said, "Dad, you can find someone to help you after the New Year." ”
Hearing Gu Qing say this, Gu Guozhang was a little hesitant.
These days, Gu Guozhang also knows that he can't be busy alone, but he is a little undetermined to let him find someone.
It's not that I'm worried that one more person will give someone more salary, but Gu Guozhang can't be sure how the craftsmanship of the recruited person is, if the craftsmanship is not good, it will damage the reputation he has accumulated so hard.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Gu Guozhang finally nodded, "Okay." ”
He has planned it, but he is not worried about the craftsmanship of outsiders, and he can also recruit an apprentice to teach him by himself, right?
Before his apprentice's skills were recognized by him, Gu Guozhang decided to let people do only simple and unskilled work.
In this way, he also reduces his own workload.
As for the candidate for this apprentice......
You need to pick and choose.
Gu Guozhang knew that with the current popularity of the Gu family's furniture, if he released the word to accept apprentices, he was afraid that the threshold of the Gu family would have to be broken, but he didn't want to accept a white-eyed wolf, so he had to take a good test of his character.
Knowing what Gu Guozhang was thinking, Yang Xiuyun glanced at Gu Guozhang, and stopped talking.
Gu Qing was stunned at first when he saw this, and then thought of something, and said before Yang Xiuyun spoke: "Dad, this kind of thing about accepting apprentices, outsiders don't know if it's reliable, you can consider your own family!" ”
"Your own family?" It took Gu Guozhang a while to comprehend what Gu Qing meant.
The Gu family has no one else except for their family, and of course there is no such thing as their own family, but Yang Xiuyun's maiden family has, the eldest brother-in-law's son Yang Shu is eighteen years old this year, and he is not looking for anything to do now.
Gu Guozhang didn't think about this before, but now that he thinks about it, he naturally thinks that Yang Shu is a good candidate for apprenticeship.
So he said: "Xiuyun, you said that if I accept apprentices, how about the poplars of your eldest brother's house?" But the eldest brother and sister-in-law are such a son, and I don't know if I am reluctant to let go......"
Before she finished speaking, Yang Xiuyun continued: "This is learning a craft, not anything else, what is there to let go of the eldest brother and sister-in-law?" ”
Then he touched Gu Guozhang's somewhat teasing eyes, and felt a little embarrassed.
She had wanted to mention poplars earlier.
The life of the eldest brother's family is not very good, Yang Xiuyun only has such a big brother, and her own life was slightly better than that of other people's families in the past, but there are still two children in the family, and there is no spare energy to pull the eldest brother's family, but now that their own life is better, it is also appropriate to pull the eldest brother.
Yang Xiuyun was afraid that Gu Guozhang would be unhappy because of this.
After all, no one likes their daughter-in-law to just look at her parents' home.
Gu Guozhang only teased Yang Xiuyun a little, and hurriedly reassured: "Xiuyun, don't worry, I'm not so petty, didn't I think about it to Yangshu just now, if you want to say that Yangshu's child, we also know the roots, this kid has a good temperament, and he is a down-to-earth person, but he is also a good candidate, as long as he is willing to learn from me, I will definitely teach him privately, if he wants to do it alone in the future, I have to support him as an uncle." ”
Hearing Gu Guozhang say this, Yang Xiuyun was surprised and delighted.
However, thinking that Yang Shu might stand on his own after learning the craft, Yang Xiuyun hesitated a little.
It is true that she wants to pull out her eldest brother's family, but Yang Xiuyun cares more about her own small family, and if it affects her own family because of this, of course she is unwilling.
Seeing Yang Xiuyun like this, Gu Guozhang hurriedly said: "Xiuyun, don't think too much, there was a Red Star Furniture Factory before...... Well, what is it in Qingqing's words, by the way, copycat our furniture, there will be no fewer such people in the future, that is, the sofa, don't look at the Red Star Furniture Factory now, but there are many craftsmen in the Red Star Furniture Factory, and there are always some clues after studying it for a while, you see, maybe it won't be long before more people will copy our furniture......"
Instead of letting people copy, it is better to teach the craft to your own family, so that poplar can have a way out in the future.
Hearing Gu Guozhang say this, Yang Xiuyun didn't bother anymore.
She smiled on her face: "Okay, when I go to my eldest brother's house for the Chinese New Year this time, I will tell my eldest brother and sister-in-law about it, and my eldest brother and sister-in-law will be very happy!" ”
Seeing that Yang Xiuyun was happy, Gu Guozhang also smiled.
As for the selection of apprentices and apprentices, even if it is agreed.
The days that followed were also leisurely.
Gu Qing is on vacation, so he doesn't have to rush to school all day, Gu Bai has already had a winter vacation, in fact, if Gu Guozhang didn't have to finish the unfinished furniture before the Chinese New Year, the family would have gone back to Xiaowu Village at this time.
Although he has settled down in the county, Xiaowu Village is also the place where the Gu family has lived for so many years, in Gu Guozhang's heart, there is his roots, where can he not go back during the New Year?
Gu Guozhang was busy making furniture, Gu Bai followed and handed over something or something, Yang Xiuyun was busy cleaning up the house, Gu Qing wanted to help, but was blocked by Yang Xiuyun.
"You're tired from school, and you're finally on vacation, but you have to rest for two days first, I don't need your help here, while we haven't returned to the village yet, with this kung fu, Qingqing, you might as well go to the supply and marketing cooperatives or department stores to shop, if you fancy something, just buy it." Yang Xiuyun is very confident.
While talking, Yang Xiuyun also took out money and various tickets and stuffed them into Gu Qing's hand, and then pushed the person out of the door like this.
Gu Qing was a little helpless.
On such a cold day, she would rather nest at home than go outside to blow the cold wind.
However, she had already been pushed out by Yang Xiuyun, and after thinking about it, she really walked towards the department store.
