59. A family of carvings
"Oh, your sister-in-law's surname is Dou, and her name is Dou Wanqing." Lou Xiaochen didn't know what his daughter-in-law wanted to say, so he still introduced Sanzang.
"Surname Dou?! The surname is Dou, sister-in-law, your ancestral hometown will not be Yiwu County, Shuiheng City, right? Sanzang thought about it for a while, and came back to his senses.
"That's right, brother-in-law, you are really well-informed, it is said that the ancestors of our family can still have a little relationship with the Empress Dowager Dou Yifang of the Western Han Dynasty." Dou Wanqing smiled and nodded.
"No, why haven't I ever heard you mention it, aren't your family ancestral carved carpenters?" Lou Xiaochen secretly said to himself when he heard this, his daughter-in-law's maiden family was so awesome.
fo
"Haha, uncle, don't be frightened by your sister-in-law, Dou Yifang is from Yiwu, and now the surname Dou in Yiwu County can basically have something to do with her." Sanzang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and thought to himself,
Dou Wanqing came from a family of carved carpenters, the family conditions are relatively good, she should have received a relatively good education since she was a child, and her appearance and talent are excellent, so she will be selected as her daughter-in-law by Lou Jingye.
"Is that so?" Lou Xiaochen touched the back of his head and looked at his daughter-in-law suspiciously.
"You say, you big idiot." Dou Wanqing rewarded her man with a roll of his eyes.
"Cut, what do you have to brag about?" Lou Xiaochen was bored with himself, thinking that he had picked up a treasure.
"Sister-in-law, I want to ask, how is my uncle's carving skills? You know, there is no shortage of small workers who work in my factory now, but there is a shortage of skilled workers, and they are skilled masters, because the things that my woodworking factory makes are to be exported to Dongwa.
The requirements are stricter, if you don't have any strength......" Sanzang looked at Dou Wanqing with burning eyes after speaking, he would not spoil a big deal because of this little bit of kinship.
"Hmm...... When my father was young, he led a group of people to work for large families in Yandu, and he also made a lot of money.
When we came to Port City, he had been a Grade 8 carpenter for more than three years. When Dou Wanqing said this, her eyes flashed brightly, and she was very proud of her father.
"Great, eighth-level carpenter, yes, where is the uncle now? You guys...... Is there still a connection? Sanzang clenched his right hand into a fist and smashed it hard into the palm of his left hand, and asked with concern.
"He, he has long since retired, and now lives in Goldfish Alley, I and the head of the family came to Hong Kong City when I cut off contact with my family, I don't need to say the rest of the things, we had a hard time in the past few years, and I didn't have the face to go back to my parents' house, but I kept in touch with the family.
Speaking of which, I have to thank you, since the head of the family made a fortune with you betting on horses, I have returned to my mother's house in a beautiful way, and I have been going back to my parents' house more in the past two years.
Now that we have bought a villa with a sea view, I am going to take my parents and my mother to the port city this year for the New Year, and I will have a visit by the way. Dou Wanqing talked about the ups and downs over the years, and sighed.
"Haha, you don't have to thank me, if you want to thank me, thank my family Xiao'e, a rich woman, if it wasn't for her huge financial support, I wouldn't have been able to make a fortune, I'm actually a soft eater." Sanzang grabbed Xiao'e's jade hand and stroked it gently.
"What are you talking about, you don't give me everything." Xiao'e held her man's big hand with her backhand, and her ten fingers were clasped together.
"Okay, okay, I thank both of you." Dou Wanqing looked at her sister-in-law's small movements with a smile.
"This is called planting good causes and getting good results, the virtuous son-in-law helped my family, and Xiao'e later helped the virtuous son-in-law, wonderful, wonderful!" Lou Jingye looked at the happy family in front of him, and couldn't help but feel relieved.
"Brother-in-law, if you want to open a woodworking factory, it is most suitable to ask my father to give you technical checks, and my two younger brothers can also help you, they also learned withering from my father since childhood." Dou Wanqing knows her own affairs,
His two younger brothers are honest craftsmen, not materials for business, and they can't be funded for a lifetime.
If you don't do it, you will be able to fund good people, and the owner will not allow it, so it's best to follow Sanzang to do things, and it's easy to get out and make a lot of money.
"I understand, when the time comes to return to Yandu, I will go to my uncle to discuss as soon as possible, if the two brothers are indeed talented, I will definitely reuse them." Sanzang understood Dou Wanqing's extraneous voice and hurriedly expressed his position.
"Okay, I'll go and write to my father, and when the time comes, you can hand it over to him directly, and he will understand what is going on, and he won't refuse." Dou Wanqing immediately stood up.
"Okay, that's for the best." Sanzang nodded approvingly, what a smart woman.
"Xiao'e, come and hug your daughter, I'm going to feed her." Lou's mother's voice came from the baby's room.
"Eh, here, husband, let's go see our daughter together." Xiao'e looked at her man gently.
"Okay."
The next day, at half past two in the afternoon, Sanzang returned from Hong Kong City to Yandu's own Erjin Fourth Courtyard, just finished eating the Yangchun noodles cooked by private chef He Daqing, and sat in the living room to rest, and his daughter-in-law Jingru was sorting out her suitcase in the bedroom.
"Owner, there are two young men looking for you at the gate of the compound." At this time, the porter Zheng Tieshi walked in.
"Oh, who?" Sanzang picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.
"Say it's your old neighbors Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang." Zheng Tieshi stood solemnly.
"Oh, it's the two demon kings of the mixed world, tell them in." Sanzang nodded, signaling that he understood.
"Okay."
After a while, Zheng Tieshi led Liu Guangtian and Yan Xie Fang into the living room and retired on his own.
Sanzang looked at the scars on the faces of the two of them, their clothes were old, and they looked like down-and-out bears, and there was a trace of displeasure in his heart, "Say, what's the matter with me?" If you want to find a job, just go to the countryside and find my eldest brother.
He will arrange it for the two of you, now Liu Guangfu and Yan Xie Kuang are both working there, if you want to go to work in the HSZ Building, you can do it hands-free. ”
"Thank you, Sanye, in fact, we don't want to go to work in the factory, we both want to learn to do business with you." Liu Guangtian was more bold and took the initiative to speak.
"Haha, I met Mr. Yan a few days ago when I was eating wine in the countryside, and he said that you two didn't mix well in Silk Street again, why do you want to do business with me?" Sanzang looked at these two brothers with a sarcastic expression, they are really guys who don't remember to eat.
"Alas, don't mention it, third master, now foreigners are all proficient, and they don't buy old prices from private people at all, and they don't care if things are real or fake, they will spend a few yuan at most if they want to buy.
And now there are too many liars in this business, and our only little capital has been cheated out by our own people, my wife divorced me with her children, and I still owe a butt,
I don't know when I will pay off my debts by going to work, and I really have no way to live. After Yan Xie Fang finished speaking, he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.
"I'm pretty much the same, my wife also wants to divorce me, and I beat me so hard that I don't dare anymore." Liu Guangtian was also single, and told him about his predicament, and after speaking, he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, just like Yan Jiefang.
"Well, you guys, what can I say?" Sanzang sighed, these two people have reached a dead end, and if they don't help, they will be completely wasted.
