Chapter Nineteen: Craftsman Wang Carpenter
Early the next morning, Yi Mingxue went out carrying the wolf meat for Yuan Liu.
But before leaving, she went to Carpenter Wang's house.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Carpenter Wang's house, he heard the cries of several children coming from inside the house.
And Carpenter Wang's concerned but helpless voice said, "Second treasure, third treasure, be good, dad will definitely get something to eat today."
Yi Mingxue knocked on the door and shouted, "Uncle Wang, are you free now? I've brought you wolf meat."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sound of an empty water ladle falling to the ground.
Soon, Carpenter Wang opened the door.
Yi Mingxue was seen standing outside the door, actually holding a pound of fresh wolf meat in her hand.
I was in a daze for a moment and couldn't believe it.
"Da Ya...you are actually here..."
Yi Mingxue smiled and said, "Uncle, didn't we agree? I will exchange the wooden toys you made for wolf meat. My sixth brother likes the wooden chariot you made."
Carpenter Wang rubbed the back of his head uncomfortably and said shyly, "Hey, just like it, it's just useless wood lumps."
Yi Mingxue handed over the packed pound of wolf meat, "Nuo, I promise you the meat."
"This..." Carpenter Wang looked at the good hob meat and refused repeatedly, "But we agreed to switch to the corner meat. Your meat is so good...it's not worth it..."
Yi Mingxue didn't engage in pushing and blocking with him, and directly hung the meat on the door handle.
He said bluntly, "Is it worth it or not? Can a few children over there eat enough?"
"Besides, I came today because I have something else to ask for."
Carpenter Wang received such a great favor from her and was so moved that he almost shed tears. As soon as he heard that she needed help, he immediately patted his chest and promised.
"If you have any problem, just ask! Even if I can't do it, I will fight to the death to help you."
Yi Mingxue looked at him gritting his teeth and swearing, feeling both touched and wanting to laugh.
"Don't worry! You don't need to fight to the death. I just want to hit two objects, and I want Uncle Wang to see if I can do it."
With that said, Yi Mingxue handed over the drawings of the wheelchair and carriage that she had drawn overnight.
She was not a mechanical major, so she could only draw out her needs as detailed as possible based on her past life memories.
Unexpectedly, when Carpenter Wang saw the things on the drawing, he felt a little unable to move.
He studied it carefully for a long time, then raised his head and asked Yi Mingxue excitedly.
"Da Ya, where did you get this blueprint? This one looks like a four-wheeled vehicle used on the battlefield, but it's not exactly that. It's only big enough for one person to sit and lie down...could it be for you?
Is it used by the fifth child to travel around?"
Yi Mingxue was a little surprised by Wang Carpenter's understanding.
After all, as far as she knew, there was no such single-person wheelchair in the world specifically for people with disabilities.
"Yes, it's possible?"
Carpenter Wang thought for a moment, then raised his head and nodded firmly, "It will take some effort, but since you asked, I will definitely make it for you."
Then, he looked at another copy.
"This is a common carriage, but the size you designed is too large. Even if it is running on the official road, it is prone to accidents. I suggest you increase the two rear wheels and make the carriage smaller. In this way, it will run better
Only then can it be faster and more stable.”
Yi Mingxue was really relieved now.
I saw it right, Carpenter Wang is a great craftsman.
Perhaps it was during this lean year that fewer people had spare money to buy things; coupled with his introverted nature, his business eventually got worse and worse.
"Uncle Wang, you can do it, that's great. As for the size of the carriage, it all depends on your suggestion!"
"You set a price and give me a time to pick up the goods."
"No, no, no -" When it came to the price, Carpenter Wang returned to the state of being on pins and needles just now, "Tell me, the agreement is to help, I can't ask for money."
Yi Mingxue seemed to understand a little bit how he lived his life like this.
She couldn't help but stuff a tael of silver into his arms, "Uncle Wang, I won't talk to you anymore. I have something to do and I'm in a hurry to go to town. This tael of silver is a deposit. If nothing happens to you these days,
, just think about starting construction! Then I will pay you the balance of the payment."
After saying that, she dropped the money and ran out the door.
Carpenter Wang wanted to chase him out, but the baby behind him began to scream hungry again.
By the time he comforted several children and chased them out, Yi Mingxue had already disappeared.
…
Yi Mingxue didn't bring a few diced radish with her today. Seeing that there was no one around, she packed the wolf meat into the space and traveled lightly.
When we arrived in town, it was just past midnight.
As the richest man in Fengyun Town, Liu Yuanwai's house is naturally easy to find.
However, just as Yi Mingxue turned around a fork in the alley, she was blocked by four or five gangsters.
Yi Mingxue tilted her neck and warned, "I advise you to think twice before you act. Don't regret it and cry bitterly again to ask me to spare my life."
"Oh, that's not a bad tone!" The leader was none other than Shopkeeper Hu's nephew, the waiter at Yunlai Restaurant.
The other gangsters all burst out laughing after hearing Yi Mingxue's words.
"I heard that this bitch made more than ten taels of silver yesterday? She also carried mountain wolf meat for Yuanwai Liu in her basket! Brothers, it seems that we are going to make a fortune today!"
"Damn, I just look a little bit ugly, otherwise I would still be blessed!"
Yi Mingxue's face darkened, and she was too lazy to talk to a bunch of gangsters.
"Stop talking nonsense and come together! I have something else to do."
Not only was Yi Mingxue not afraid, she was actually so arrogant.
The gangsters suddenly felt humiliated. As soon as the waiter raised his hand, two people immediately followed him and attacked him.
Yi Mingxue put one hand on her back and used her other hand to parry and block. She actually twisted the waiter's hand and blocked it in front of her.
The waiter's right hand was twisted into a knot by Yi Mingxue, and he screamed in pain immediately.
When the remaining people saw this, they simply swarmed up and pounced on him.
This time, Yi Mingxue counterattacked to defend, retreated to advance, and directly used the waiter as a human shield.
Although the opponent has a large number of people, Yi Mingxue is very fast and has a charming figure.
Several gangsters punched the waiter several times, and without exception they all hit the waiter, causing him to yell and curse in pain.
"Ah - what do you guys do for food?! Why are you staring at me and beating me!"
"You are a bunch of losers, you have five or six people who live for a living, but you can't even beat a country woman!"
For a moment, there was chaos in the dark alley.
Seeing that the time was almost ripe, Yi Mingxue directly picked up the waiter with one hand, and the human shield instantly turned into a human weapon.
With the help of his human shield-cum-weapon hand, he punched with the left and kicked with the right, beating all the gangsters to the ground in three strikes.
After everything is done.
The waiter couldn't move for a long time and was still lying on the ground wailing.
"You - you bully Ba Shi - me, I want to report you to the official!"
Yi Mingxue patted the dust on her shoulder that was accidentally stained. Suddenly her expression changed, and even her tone became innocent.
"Oh, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"
"I'm not afraid of reporting to the police. When the time comes, I will compare the fist and footprints. It's them who beat you, but it's you who beat them! I'm just passing by."
"You——" The waiter didn't expect her to be so sinister, and he was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
Yi Mingxue sneered, turned around and left.
