Chapter 95: Unbearable

"You make boots out of this?"

The next day, Ma Chunhua looked at the sheepskin that Chen Cheng took out and felt inexplicable. What Chen Cheng wants to do is leather boots.

It's not that this plane is without boots. But the leather boots of today are not the same product as the leather boots of later generations. And Chen Cheng is not interested in the leather production process of later generations, but the soles of leather shoes in later generations. Hard sole.

The soles of this era are soft. The most common is made of cloth. Such soles are not wear-resistant and are also prone to piercing with sharp objects. Even a few sharp rocks can make people feel uncomfortable. Xu Zheng's previous boots were broken like this.

Chen Cheng had long been uncomfortable wearing such shoes. Just taking this opportunity, he is ready to practice with Xu Zheng and make modern leather shoes.

After getting Chen Cheng's affirmative answer, Ma Chunhua sighed lightly: "I found that you really like Tartar things." "In this time and space, the Song Kingdom wore cloth boots, and only the nomads wore leather shoes when they lacked materials.

Their kind of leather shoes, which were wrapped in animal skins to make the appearance of shoes, were not more advanced products, but representatives of backwardness and primitiveness.

Chen Cheng looked at Qu Feiyan. Qu Feiyan said: "Boots are boots, and there is no distinction between Tartars and Song people." ”

He nodded, satisfied with his sister's answer. It's a learning to draw inferences.

"Even if you want to make leather boots, you can buy the finished leather directly. Could it be that when you make cloth boots, you still have to weave your own cloth? Ma Chunhua was still puzzled by this.

The main reason is that Chen Cheng actually invited a professional to make leather at home. Leather making is a highly polluting and highly toxic industry. Although Ma Chunhua didn't understand this concept, she could smell it, and it was very uncomfortable.

Chen Cheng smiled: "Isn't this to show my sincerity to my senior brother?" ”

Ma Chunhua knew that Chen Cheng was a person with ideas, and she herself was originally a typical traditional woman with a husband and wife, so she only shook her head and didn't say much. Of course, I didn't believe Chen Cheng's reason very much.

She asked, "So, what's wrong with me here?" ”

Chen Cheng looked at Qu Feiyan, who was pinching his nose, and suddenly patted his head: "Yes, of course it's your business." There's a part of this that you have to do. ”

I looked left and right, and grabbed a charcoal pen from a leather maker. Back in the room, he spread out a piece of paper and drew a pattern.

"Can you cut out the painting out of cloth?"

Ma Chunhua looked at it with her eyebrows, things are not complicated, with her shallow female red skills, she should be able to complete it.

Half a day later, she took out the sample. I feel pretty good. Because this thing is so simple, it's not easy to do it.

She pinched the rope, lifted the thing and asked, "Cheng Lang, what is this?" ”

Chen Cheng took it and put it on his face: "Mask." This thing can block toxic and harmful odors to a certain extent. Now we are making this on a large scale, and you take the lead and mobilize all our maids. Non-smoking, you take the man to boil water, boil this thing, wring it out and drying it after cooking. ”

Qu Feiyan was just about to go out, but Chen Cheng remembered her again: "In the future, you two will go less to the place where the front yard makes skin." Those who want to go must also wear masks. Children can't smell it, it's not good for the body. Don't go to spring flowers, it's not good for the baby. ”

"Baby?" Ma Chunhua and Qu Feiyan exclaimed at the same time.

Ma Chunhua was even more ashamed and annoyed: "Where did the baby come from?" ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "There will always be." I'm working so hard. ”

Qu Feiyan sighed and shook her head and left, leaving her sister-in-law to stomp her feet.

The upper can be made of sheepskin. Although sheepskin is not the best material, pigskin should be suitable. But the soles have to be made of cowhide. Chen Cheng really couldn't get the raw cowhide, and he couldn't buy a cow to slaughter.

In those days, cattle had to have a slaughter license. Fortunately, hard leather has finished products to sell, and there is no big problem.

In the end, under the guidance of Chen Cheng, the whole family and several professional workers who invited to help finally worked together to make two old leather boots.

The style here is old for Chen Cheng's observations, but it is already extremely trendy for this time and space.

On this day, Chen Cheng took Ma Chunhua to call Xu Zheng, who was hanging out in Lin'an City with Ma Xingkong all day, to the side hall. He took out his leather boots and said, "Senior brother, these are the new shoes that Chunhua made for you." ”

Xu Zheng looked at these strange leather boots, and was a little suspicious: "These boots ......"

Chen Cheng smiled: "This is a new style." Do you know what is the most important word for walking the rivers and lakes? ”

Xu Zheng first blurted out: "It won't be fate again...... and then he also felt that it was wrong, and immediately changed his words and said: "Master said yes, it should be the righteous word of righteousness." ”

Ma Chunhua heard it strangely, and didn't know what the relationship between the rivers and lakes and the "circle" was.

Chen Cheng smiled: "Wrong, the most important thing in walking the rivers and lakes is naturally the word 'line'." ”

Everyone's faces turned strange when they heard this, only Qu Feiyan nodded silently, and the eldest brother was really concise and to the point, and he did the essence.

Chen Cheng also ignored everyone's gaze, and said: "If you want to travel thousands of miles, a good pair of boots is essential." Can the former boots go how far can they not break? And these boots are different. Not to mention walking thousands of miles, a thousand miles can be guaranteed. ”

Xu Zheng was also a little interested when he heard this. He was a dart master, and he walked much more than the average person, and a pair of shoes really didn't last long before they broke down. If these shoes can really walk a thousand miles now, it would be a good thing.

Chen Cheng saw that he was moved, so he struck while the iron was hot: "Try it." ”

Xu Zheng looked at his junior sister, saw the expectant look in his sister's eyes, and no longer had any doubts, and directly put on the boots.

Jianghu people are not particular about it. The dart master is the bottom of the Jianghu people, and he is not particular. Xu Zheng is a reckless man again, and it was easy to disperse Xiao Yue's heart, and finally thought that he was Ma Chunhua's brother, and he didn't pay attention to it. I changed my shoes on the spot.

The smell of a pair of feet made Chen Cheng and Qu Feiyan look hideous. Only Ma Chunhua smiled, and she really regarded Xu Zheng as her brother now. Brother Feet Stink...... It's good to be patient.

"Take two steps." Chen Cheng hurriedly agitated.

As a result, Ma Chunhua looked at him helplessly and asked, "Is the size appropriate?" ”

Xu Zheng said happily in his heart: "Suitable, suitable." ”

This is the difference between intimacy and alienation. Although Chen Cheng was also polite to Xu Zheng, he wanted to treat him as a guinea pig. Only Ma Chunhua regards him as his own brother.

Seeing Xu Zheng happily walking around on the ground, and walking past the "Sharp Stone Henge" specially set up by Chen Cheng, he didn't feel any discomfort. Chen Cheng nodded with satisfaction and said to everyone, "Great, I'll deal with the other pair." ”

Ma Chunhua was a little puzzled, and asked in a low voice, "Is the other pair for my father?" ”

Chen Cheng shook his head: "Of course not." Let's talk about it next time, and I'll send that pair to my cheap teacher. ”

"Jia Rudao?" Ma Chunhua frowned, always feeling that Cheng Lang's smile was not very pure.

Chen Cheng took another pair of samples and rode his horse to Jiafu. His identity is now known to the whole Jia Mansion, and he will be qualified to meet Jia Yidao immediately after the transmission.

"Wanli, are you here? I haven't been to fight crickets for my teacher for a while. Jia Rudao saw Chen Cheng and said happily.

Hu Dachang on the side saluted Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng finished his work and said, "Teacher, isn't this a gift for you, disciple?" ”

As soon as Jia Rudao heard the gift, he remembered the "champion Hou" offered by Chen Cheng in his cage, but he was also in the limelight, and he didn't feel that his polite smile was a little more sincere, and he glanced at the box in Chen Cheng's hand with his eyes, and said expectantly: "I don't know what kind of gift it is?" ”

Chen Cheng hurriedly presented the box: "Teacher, please see, this is the leather boots designed and made by the disciple himself." ”

Hearing the leather boots, Jia Yidao's smile dimmed a little. He is a fellow intellectual, what kind of boots do not have? What Rausch boots does he want?

On second look, these leather boots are really leather boots. It was all leather, not even a piece of gold, and there was a faint smell of leather and oxalic acid. Give this thing away?

If it weren't for the fact that this was a lucky general who was approved by a real person, he would have been ready to serve tea to the guests.

Hu Dachang had accepted Chen Cheng's benefits, and when he saw that Chen Cheng was stupid, he was ready to mention a few words: "What does Mr. Chen say about these boots?" ”

This means that if you don't say it, don't take it out and be embarrassed.

Chen Cheng didn't seem to understand this time, and said directly to Hu Dachang: "Master Hu, it's just time for you to try it on." ”

Saying that, without waiting for Hu Dachang to object, he stepped forward directly to take off Hu Dachang's shoes.

What kind of cultivation does Chen Cheng have, and what he wants to do, how can a scholar of literature like Hu Dachang object?

So Jia Yidao and Hu Dachang stared at a vulgar martial artist with wide eyes, took off Hu Dachang's cloth boots in public, and put the leather boots on.

Hu Dachang's face was indescribably ugly. And Jia Rudao was also a little annoyed. It is true that this person is a blessing, but how can he be of great use if he is vulgar and has become such a virtue?
