Chapter 66: Departure
At that time, I was busy going to Shenwu Mountain, and the third cat of Qin Lao found me with his waist and said with a smile: "Chuanzi, guess what news I brought you." ”
I glanced at him and said angrily, "What's the news?" ”
"A big business, more than Wang Jiong's money." He sat down next to me with a smile on his face.
I'm curious, can this guy bring in big business?
This is not right, I have been cooperating with him for a while, this guy has indeed pulled a lot of business, but it is all a few hundred yuan, one or two thousand business, and almost no business of more than three thousand.
At that moment, I stopped what I was doing and asked him, "What business?" ”
He seemed to be interested, and hurriedly said, "The proprietor said, as long as this matter is resolved, at least give us this number." ”
With that, he held out three fingers and raised them in front of me.
I smiled, "Three thousand? ”
"No!" He shook his head and said excitedly: "Thirty thousand, a full thirty thousand yuan, enough for us to earn money in a year." ”
I frowned slightly, thirty thousand? This is not a small amount, you must know that our town is relatively poor, every household has no extra spare money, and there are not many people who can take out 30,000 at a time, so I asked him: "Are you sure it's 30,000?" ”
He snorted and said, "Chuanzi, do you think I'm going to lie to you?" ”
As he spoke, he took out 10,000 yuan, took 3,000 yuan from it, handed the remaining 7,000 yuan to me, and said with a smile: "Well, this is the deposit given by the owner." ”
After saying this, he grabbed me and said happily: "Let's go, I'll take you to meet the owner." ”
I didn't move, my brow furrowed even deeper, and I felt that something was not normal. After all, there must be tricky things under the heavy money, otherwise, it would be impossible for the owner to give so much money, besides, I am going to Shenwu Mountain soon, how can I have time to meet the owner with him, just say: "Let's talk about it when I come back!" ”
When he heard this, his face changed slightly, "Chuanzi, I have promised the owner." ”
I glanced at him, this Qin Laosan knew three days ago that I was going to Shenwu Mountain with Wang Jiong, and he gave me a whole play, didn't it embarrass me, and I was about to say a few words, when I found that Qin Laosan had taken seven yuan from my hand and didn't speak.
I was speechless about this, but I was in a hurry to go to Shenwu Mountain, and I didn't pay much attention to it, so I told Qin Laosan, don't mess around outside, wear shoes as big as you want, and don't put your life into it.
That Qin Laosan just replied, and he knew it, so he kept standing next to me.
I sighed deeply, didn't say anything more, packed up my tools and put them into the small wooden box that my brother had left for me.
Pack it up, all this, I looked at the time, there was still an hour before Wang Jiong's agreed time, so I asked Su Xiaoman to make a little breakfast, and greeted Su Xiaoman, I left this time, and looked at the coffin shop.
After breakfast, I, Su Xiaoman, and Qin Laosan chatted around the dining table.
Because I didn't go with him to see the owner, Qin Laosan looked depressed, and Su Xiaoman said to me vigorously: "Senior brother, when you go out, you have to take care of yourself, don't be reckless." ”
I smiled bitterly, since this Su Xiaoman came to the coffin shop, she has completely acted as a housekeeper's wife, and the general sale of coffins or anything is promoted by Su Xiaoman, and the money I make is basically kept by her.
Just as we were chatting, there was a noise downstairs, if I guessed correctly, it should be Wang Jiong who came, I got up slowly, greeted Su Xiaoman a few times again, and told Qin Laosan that if it is possible, I will return 10,000 yuan to his owner first.
That Qin Laosan smiled and didn't speak.
Seeing this, I couldn't say any more, so I asked him to pay attention to himself, and got up and walked towards the first floor.
Coming to the first floor, Wang Jiong led three middle-aged men to stand at the door, I carefully looked at the three middle-aged men, slightly stunned, these three people I know, it is the three brothers who came, the eldest is called Xie Jinshan, the second is called Xie Yinshan, and the third is called Xie Tieshan, all of whom are carpenters in our town.
Strangely, although these three brothers are carpenters, they rarely work, and they grow flowers and vegetables at home on weekdays.
I was too busy in this coffin shop for a while, and I went to invite these three people, but the three of them readily refused, saying that they didn't want to touch the wood.
Just when I was stunned, Wang Jiong walked over and said with a smile: "Brother Luo, let me introduce you to you, this is..." ”
Before he could finish speaking, I stopped and said, "No need, I know these three masters." ”
After that, I walked towards Xie Jinshan, who was close to fifty years old, with a Chinese face, some gray hair on his temples, a khaki wool coat on his upper body, and a pair of wool shoes on his feet, and I said, "Master Xie, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
That Xie Jinshan smiled and nodded, and didn't speak, but Xie Yinshan next to him stretched out his hand to me and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, I didn't expect that the ghost craftsman in Brother Wang's mouth was actually you, it seems that our three brothers are fortunate to be able to see the skills of ghost craftsmen." ”
I looked up at this man, forty-five or sixteen years old, with a small flat head, and said, "The boy is only a shallow learner, and he makes you laugh." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xie Tieshan, who was next to him, sneered: "What a bullshit ghost craftsman, it's just a hairy boy." ”
I turned my head to look at Na Xie Tieshan, about forty years old, with long hair, and a cyan ninja tattoo on the position of the tiger's mouth on his right hand.
"Iron Mountain, watch your tone." That Xie Yinshan glared at Xie Tieshan, turned his head to look at me again, and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, my third brother doesn't have a sense of proportion, and I hope that my virtuous nephew won't take it to heart." ”
I smiled, glanced at Xie Tieshan meaningfully, and said with a smile: "It's nothing!"
"Second brother, this kid is just a hairy boy, why do you respect him so much." That Xie Tieshan said in an unkind tone.
"What do you know, in the eyes of our craftsmen, there is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher, since this little brother is a ghost craftsman, he naturally has some ability, and we should respect him a little." Xie Yinshan said on the side.
That Wang Jiong should have seen that this atmosphere was a little wrong, and hurriedly came out to play a round, saying: "Several, time is pressing, and I hope that a few of you can put aside some disputes between craftsmen for the time being." ”
I smiled and didn't speak, but Xie Yinshan said, "Brother Wang is right, our three brothers will go all out." ”
Soon, a group of five of us rented a Chang'an van in the town and went straight to Shenwu Mountain.
On the way, none of us spoke, but I kept staring at Xie Jinshan, and an idea popped up in my mind, and my surname was Xie, could it be related to what Lin Fan said.
