Chapter 558: Tranquil Mountain Village [Asking for Subscription*Asking for a Monthly Pass]
"If you have time, you should go to the county to learn, after all, the technology has improved, and it is easier to attract customers!"
"Just like Zhang Asan, his craftsmanship is really not good, the bed that was just repaired last month is broken again this month!"
"We are also all looking at the craftsmanship for the work, the craftsmanship is good, we will keep it for you next time!"
The old man was chattering all the way, but Jin Yao listened quietly and did not interject, just nodding or smiling from time to time.
Finally, after walking for a while, less than a cup of tea, a quiet small village also appeared in front of Jin Yao's eyes, and there were not many houses, dotted with stars, about four or five households.
But Jin Yao also knew that in order to facilitate farming, generally these villages lived nearby, three or five households together, and then twenty or thirty scattered households were called a village.
"The third child is back, who is it that you brought back?" The simple villagers were also curious about who Jin Yao was behind the old man, and asked.
"It's a carpenter, didn't Zhang Asan go to the county seat to study some time ago, I will lead the craftsman to come back first, no one knows if Zhang Asan will come back after going to the city for further study!" The old man also greeted and helped Jin Yao pull the customer.
"Oh, there are a lot of broken things in my house, and the craftsmen must come to my house later!" The news of Mr. Carpenter's arrival spread in this remote and isolated mountain village.
Jin Yao didn't have time to say more, he was taken to a threshing floor in the village to sit down, and then each family went back to their own house, and after a while, they brought all kinds of broken pots and pans and other wooden furniture for Jin Yao to help repair.
In fact, the carpenter can do more than this, more than some large pieces of furniture at home, such as cabinets, eucalyptus, beds, but the simplicity of the villagers is also a little more careful, they also need to know Jin Yao's level, so they decide whether Jin Yao wants to help repair it.
Jin Yao looked at the pots and pans piled up in front of him, and he didn't dislike it, and took out the tools and repaired them seriously one by one.
And the villagers also took their children to play next to them, but their eyes would also stare at it from time to time, looking at whether it was their turn or not, and how it was repaired.
"I can't see it, this craftsman is not very old, but his skills are much higher than Zhang Asan!" Many villagers can see Jin Yao's craftsmanship.
It's like a broken pottery bowl, after a simple repair in Jin Yao's hands, it is also the same as a brand new one, and those wooden ones have also been repaired again, and they also help planing them, while the carpenters in the past are only responsible for repairing, regardless of planing, the planing is the villagers themselves take it back and use it for a long time before it becomes smooth.
"Don't look at who brought it back!" The old man who brought Jin Yao back, that is, the third child in the mouth of the villagers, showed off proudly.
Jin Yao also smiled slightly, and continued to help the villagers repair their tools.
However, Jin Yao also noticed that many people also came from afar, but they didn't bring many things, more of them were waiting by the side.
Finally finished repairing the things in front of them, and the villagers also took their own things, but none of them left, waiting for Jin Yao to finish repairing the last things.
"Sir, go to my house first, I have a cabinet and a strip in my house that need to be repaired!" When Jin Yao stopped what he was doing, the villagers all hugged him again, pulling Jin Yao's clothes, and wanted to take Jin Yao away first.
Jin Yao didn't expect the villagers to be so enthusiastic and tough, and he was stunned for some reason to be carried back to his house by a strong man.
"It's okay, it's okay, let me go first, strong man!" Jin Yao was also a little embarrassed to be carried, and hurriedly patted the man's shoulder and said.
It's just that the strong man didn't stop at all, and carried Jin Yao all the way to the house before putting it down.
"Third child, I've brought people back!" It wasn't until he got home that Jin Yao knew that it was not a strong man who carried him back, but a woman, or the wife of the old man who led him back to the village.
"I probably know how your bed is broken!" Looking at the strong man's wife, and then at the third child, Jin Yao said silently.
"I'll just say that Mr. is better than Zhang Asan, but I can see the problem with the bed at a glance!" The third smiled and showed off to his wife.
Jin Yao was silent, and then repaired the third child, which had been sewn and mended, and added a few stones to the bed that had been fixed with several wooden stakes, and he was not sure how long this overwhelmed bed could last with the help of stones.
"That's it!" After repairing for a long time, Jin Yao shook hard, and found that he could still withstand his own strength, so he turned back and said to the third and his wife who were watching from the side.
The third child also went to try it and found that it was indeed stable, not shaking, and not creaking, so he smiled and took five Korean knife coins from a cloth bag in the cabinet with several layers and handed them to Jin Yao, and then carefully folded the remaining three knife coins and put them back.
"The village is not rich, so I can only give this to Mr." The third said crampedly.
Jin Yao smiled and took one of the five sword coins, and then returned the rest.
"Don't mind if I drink saliva!" Jin Yao said with a smile.
"Huh?" The third child was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Of course, child, hurry, pour water for Mr." ”
The third wife's wife also hurriedly ran to the water tank, scooped a large scoop of water and handed it to Jin Yao.
Jin Yao smiled and took a sip of water.
"Enough, not enough for me to spoon again!" The third wife's wife looked at Jin Yao and asked.
Jin Yao was stunned for a moment, looked at a large scoop of water, and smiled awkwardly, it would be good if this scoop could be drunk!
"What do you say, if Mr. doesn't dislike it, it's getting late now, so it's better to stay at my house first, and I'll take Mr. to the village tomorrow." The third child hurriedly stopped his wife and said.
"It's okay too!" Jin Yao didn't refuse, it's better than sleeping in the wilderness by himself.
"it, go make a fire and make food!" The third child hurriedly urged.
"Good!" The third wife had already turned around and walked to the kitchen.
"I heard you call your wife a child, why don't you see your child?" Jin Yao also knew from the conversation just now that this old-looking third child was actually only forty years old.
"I hid in the mountains, and the government came to pull Zhuang Ding from time to time, saying that the front-line war was tight and we wanted to replenish the soldiers, so we let the children hide in the mountains!" The third sighed and said sadly.
"Is the government arresting strong men in the field?" Jin Yao asked hesitantly.
"Come almost every month!" The third said in a deep voice, looking at the sky, "I don't know when such a day will be the end!" ”
"I heard that the Qin State doesn't catch strong men, and we used to have land and grain for free, I don't know if it's true!"
"Some time ago, the old six families in the village ran away, and I haven't seen a letter for so long!"
Jin Yao listened quietly, in this era, it is not easy to travel, let alone flee into another country with his family, once he is caught, he will be sentenced to death, even if he escapes, can he really live well? And really doing well, and willing to come back and tell them about these folks? Can you come back?
