The fur businessman's surname is Bai, and is known as Baimao. He has a big belly and poop. He is more than the size of Ji Meiniang. Because of his obesity, his eyes are squeezed into a gap.
When Baimao came to the village, of course, he did not come alone. He brought a few servants and sat in a luxurious carriage, and a group of people came to the village in a mighty manner.
At first, Baimao was disdainful of this poor little village. In his impression, the countryside village was just a country man with feces drawn from animals, plus a pleasing and dressed in tattered clothes.
As a result, when he arrived in the village, he was shocked.
Ji Meiniang’s house was made of Jiang Hexi’s house. In order to welcome the arrival of the financial owner, their family bought flowers and plants to decorate the house in advance, so when Baimao entered the house, his eyes could not be removed.
The houses in the countryside were neatly laid with bluestone, and some flowers and plants were matched on the side, which looked very clean and tidy.
After rushing for a while, Baimao was just in a hurry to pee, so she went to find the toilet.
He had been to the countryside before and was ready to be smothered.
When he entered the toilet, he was stunned when he saw the clean toilet.
"Why is this toilet so clean? Where is it going to use it?!"
Although Liu Sigen is a turtle master, he is rich and he doesn't care whether he is cuckolded, but he said to Bai Mao, "Master Bai, look, there is a gap here, just put it in the bucket."
The water poured here and washed away, clean."
After all, the white hair was born by a businessman. A flash of light flashed in his eyes and he immediately discovered business opportunities.
"This pit is well done. If it is promoted in the city, people in the city will definitely be willing to transform it!"
Baimao said this, he is now a big businessman and he doesn't take the fraction of his profits into consideration.
However, when he entered the inner room and sat on the feeling of warm kang, he couldn't sit still.
It happened to be a little cold today. The little north wind was blowing. After Baimao went to the toilet, her body felt a little cold. After entering the main house, Ji Hongmei was lying on the kang. When she saw Baimao, Ji Hongmei said, "Bai."
Master, come up and sit here, it’s warm!”
Baimao didn't think much about it, and smiled and went to the kang to sit on the kang.
As a result, when the warm temperature on the kang came, he widened his eyes and showed an incredible look.
"What is this thing? Why is it so warm?"
On the surface, this kang looks like a bed, nothing surprising.
Ji Hongmei heard this and smiled, "Master Bai, this thing is called a kang. In winter, as long as you have this thing, it will be cold in that winter. Moreover, the kang is not like burning charcoal, it has to be
Worry about being poisoned."
After hearing this, Baimao became more and more fond of the kang. He looked at it again and again, and lifted the mattress on the kang, but still couldn't see any name. He said, "How can this kang be warmer?
”.
Seeing Baimao's curious look, Ji Hongmei was also proud and said, "Master Bai, please follow me, you will know later."
Baimao followed Ji Hongmei curiously towards the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the stove was cooking on the fire. Ji Hongmei pointed at the stove and said, "This is the key to the warmth of the kang. As long as the fire is burning, the kang can warm up."
Baimao covered her hands and laughed, "Miscellaneous, wonderful, wonderful! This kang is good, this kang is really well made!"
I saw Baimao clapping and laughing several times, praising her repeatedly, looking at the house where the fire kang was built. For a moment, even the children in Ji Hongmei's belly were not paid attention to, but only looking at the fire kang.
.
Finally, he invited Liu Sigen into the house and asked some questions about the construction of the kang.
Unfortunately, Liu Sigen didn't know how to build it, and he just said, "Master Bai, this kang was made by Jiang Changsong and others in the village. I heard that it was a method that a girl in the village came up with, but I don't know how to do it.
When helping people make kangs, don’t let outsiders be present.”
After hearing this, Baimao nodded in understanding and said, "It is natural for outsiders to know about a good thing like a kang."
After pausing, Baimao said, "This is how you want to ask the girl who first came up with a fire kang, and ask her if she is selling it? If things are done, you will definitely benefit!"
"Good!".
Liu Sigen responded and went out happily.
When he arrived at Jiang Hexi's house, after Liu Sigen knocked on the door, Jiang Hexi quickly opened the door.
Liu Sigen entered the house and did not politely to Jiang Hexi, saying, "Girl Hexi, this is the case. Uncle Is Not to buy your method to make a kang, the price will definitely not be small. How much do you pay for it?"
Jiang Hexi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed the next moment.
She said lightly, "Uncle Fourth, you don't want to buy this method of making a kang!"
Liu Sigen widened his eyes and said in his heart, this girl is so sophisticated!
He almost blurted out, "Girl Hexi, how do you know?"
Seeing Liu Sigen looking at him in surprise, Jiang Hexi just smiled and didn't explain much, and said directly, "It's Mr. Bai who wants to buy it, right?"
After hearing this, Liu Sigen knew that he could not fool this girl, so he sighed more and more at Jiang Hexi.
I felt that I hadn't seen it before, but I didn't expect this girl to be so smart.
Jiang Hexi said, "Uncle Fourth, I will definitely not sell this method of making a kang. However, if Mr. Bai needs to make a kang at home, we can help with it. Of course, we will definitely charge a fee.
”
Liu Sigen was a little disappointed when he heard this and said, "Since that's the case, I'll go and ask Mr. Bai."
As he spoke, Liu Sigen left.
Jiang Hexi, who was still there, had a ray of light flashed in her eyes. Of course, when she lowered her head, her whole body turned into a simple and unscheming look.
In the room, Grandma Jiang sat cross-legged on the kang, sewing and repairing.
Jiang Sandi, who was standing beside him, was practicing writing on the kang table next to him.
There was a pot of wood ash next to the kang table, and Brother Jiang took the dead branches and wrote on the wood ash.
After moving into a new house, Jiang Hexi's family still had a lot of work. Since the house in the old house was burned by a horse thief, everything at home needs to be rebuilt. Large items are like tables and chairs, and they can also be purchased by carpenters, and small items are only
Made by your own home.
For example, curtains and the like!
At this time, Grandma Jiang was making a light green curtain with pine and bamboo patterns.
Jiang Hexi pointed out Grandma Jiang from the side and told Grandma Jiang about her needs.
Jiang Hexi's needlework is indeed rough, and even Grandma Jiang can't stand it. Thanks to Grandma Jiang's good spirits and health, she is much better than Jiang Hexi when she is doing needlework.
When Jiang Hexi entered the house, Grandma Jiang casually said, "Who is it? I seem to hear Liu Sigen's voice?"
"Grandma, it's him!"
Grandma Jiang "quenched" her mouth, looked down upon her a little, and said, "What are he doing? He Xi, you and your third brother are good children, so you can't interact with the Liu family."
Grandma Jiang was worried that her good-looking child would be damaged.
"Grandma, I know everything!", paused, and she said, "He came to me and said it was Mr. Bai from the city, who wanted to find me to buy the kang-making skills."
Grandma Jiang "quenched" again, and became more and more disdainful, saying, "How can you sell such a good craft to him? He Xi, your craft can be passed down from generation to generation, but
We can’t sell it to outsiders easily, we can’t just make a few quick money!”
"Grandma, don't worry, I understand that I won't be so short-sighted."
After hearing this, Grandma Jiang became more and more satisfied and nodded, "Girl Hexi, Grandma knows your ability, just know what you are capable of."
On the other hand, when Liu Sigen returned home, he told Bai Mao that Jiang Hexi said.
Baimao felt a pity when he heard this, but his true nature of a businessman was cunning, and then he smiled, "That's fine. Since she doesn't sell it, then let her take someone to put a fire kang for my house.
Make it."
Bai Mao thought to himself, as long as he calls people into his house to work, he still has to worry about not knowing how the kang is made?
As long as you figure out how to do it with the kang and toilet, you can take orders in the city and make a lot of money.
It just so happened that Baimaodian had Ji Hongmei, and spent a lot of money. He just had a little time in his hand, but he was waiting to make some extra money to fill the gap.
After making up his mind, Baimao asked Liu Sigen to take his servants to find Jiang Hexi's people to work.
After all, the last time the pit and kang at Liu Sigen's house were also the ones that Jiang Hexi guided Jiang Changsong and others to do their work.
Baimao planned Jiang Hexi's skills, and Jiang Hexi was just thinking about stepping on Baimao to transform the kang and the pit in the city. The two sides hit it off and reached an agreement.
Jiang Hexi would not be polite to a big businessman like Baimao. He directly asked for a kang renovation fee of five taels of silver, which was equivalent to a renovation price of one tael of silver in a house. Baimao also agreed to this price.
As for the renovation of the pit? Because the pit is too dirt and is not a job that ordinary people are willing to do, so the charge is naturally not cheap. Jiang Hexi also directly asked for a price of five taels of silver.
After the price negotiations were reached, Jiang Hexi actually became a contractor and brought Jiang Changsong and others to the city to work.
After Grandma Jiang knew about this, she immediately said to Jiang Hexi, "Hexi, your second aunt has been idle and has no work to do. Your second aunt treats you well!"
Jiang Hexi immediately said, "Then ask my second aunt if she wants to work in the city together? If he comes here, he can be an apprentice first. The apprentice will pay 30 cents a day. If he finishes his studies, he can participate in the shareholding in the future.
.”
Grandma Jiang cracked her mouth and smiled, "Okay, okay, then I'll go and ask now!"
Jiang Hexi agreed, and Grandma Jiang walked to Jiang Ergu's house with her little feet.
