Su Erlang had already reined in the reins and pulled over to the side of the car. He raised the curtain and said, "Mom, let's go back and buy the yard."
Chen Yu shook his head: "No, a strong dragon can't defeat a local snake. We're afraid that we won't be able to protect them if they buy them. Let's do this. You two brothers will go back and give them two hundred taels of silver notes. Don't mention the house, just say thank you for taking them in.
It's a good relationship, and we can bring back all their children and grandchildren on this trip, and then we can make plans."
Su Liulang nodded: "Okay, mom, don't worry, we two will go and come back quickly."
"Liu Lang, don't forget to tell them not to give money unless absolutely necessary. Obviously, Jiang Dashan doesn't want money." Chen Yu was a little worried: "I don't know if this old couple can bear it."
Su Erlang smiled: "Mom, what can't you bear? People live their whole lives just for a house. If there is no way out, I will never give it to you."
Chen Yu took out the banknote and handed it to Su Liulang: "You two brothers, go ahead. Yuling and I will walk around nearby."
Su Erlang and Su Liulang hurried back.
Chen Yu took Pan Yuling around the area. It was not far from Liurong Village, so Pan Yuling could take a good look at the soil quality nearby.
It's just a pity that Pan Yuling has not found suitable soil again. However, pottery clay with average texture can be found everywhere. However, when this kind of pottery clay is used to make pottery, the possibility of breaking the pottery is very high, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Su Erlang and Su Liulang came back very quickly. Chen Yu and Pan Yuling sat in the car and continued on their way.
"Mom, Uncle Jiang is a very transparent person. He took the banknote and said that he would rather sell this yard to our Su family." Su Liulang said.
Chen Yu looked at Su Liulang.
Su Liulang smiled: "I said that although our Su family is not a big family, my mother is very powerful. She is the head of the women's school. My third brother is a scholar. Our family has many workshops, two hundred taels.
Although there is a lot of money, it is still worth it to make a good relationship, because this time we came to Dingtao County to find craftsmen who can make porcelain."
"You've come clean." Chen Yu said with a smile.
She didn't think that Su Liulang was saying it without any intention, but rather that he said it with too much intention. Isn't the Su family powerful? No, in Qingniu County, if we really talk about it, the Su family is powerful enough no matter which aspect it is. To Jiang
For an old man, he is an unattainable noble person. Otherwise, who would be able to spend two hundred taels of silver to form a good relationship?
And this is where Su Liulang's cleverness lies. As long as Old Jiang has the slightest bit of resistance, he will definitely cling to the straw of the Su family.
"The Jiang family knows how to make porcelain. They are distant relatives, but they live so close to each other. They have learned some skills even if they are not together." Su Liulang said with a smile: "Even if they have never learned it before, Uncle Jiang's son and daughter-in-law have all worked as coolies in the past.
It’s been a year, and I’ve learned some tricks.”
Chen Yu nodded: "Let's talk about it in Dingtao County."
Thirty miles is not far. After the car entered Dingtao County, Chen Yu finally understood why this place is called Dingtao County. There are various shops on both sides of the street. There are a dazzling array of pottery at the door of the shop. Inside the shop
It's porcelain.
There are not only daily dishes, pots and cups, but also some cute little ornaments. There is a row of clay ornaments of the twelve zodiac animals on the table outside a shop, and the colors and shapes are all lifelike.
Su Erlang led the mule, Su Liulang followed behind Chen Yu and Pan Yuling, and the three mothers walked on the street and looked at each other. They bought the really good-looking objects at very cheap prices. The twelve zodiac ornaments only cost one hundred cents.
.
Arriving in front of Jiang's porcelain shop, Pan Yuling pulled Chen Yu and pointed to the plaque covered with plaques.
Chen Yu looked up at the gold plaque and led Pan Yuling into the shop.
The Jiang family's shop is really big, with more than a dozen boys. When you enter the main entrance, there are pottery on your left and porcelain on your right. Both pottery and porcelain are exquisite. The plum vases from small to large have beautiful shapes and delicate textures.
, the hollow patterns are so exquisite, it is obviously made of porcelain, but it gives people a feeling that it can be broken by blowing a bullet, which makes Chen Yu have to sigh in his heart: This is a master!
The young man saw Chen Yu and Pan Yuling wandering around for a long time, then came over and asked with a smile: "Madams, tell me what you want, and I will bring it to you to see if it suits your liking."
Chen Yu nodded: "We would like to order a batch of rouge boxes, wine jars, wine bottles, wine jugs and wine cups. If the price is right, we will also order some large and small jars."
The young boy was still smiling at first, but as Chen Yu spoke, his eyes got bigger and bigger, even bigger than his mouth, and he stared at Chen Yu in disbelief.
"Brother, do you have all of these?" Chen Yu looked over and asked with a smile.
The young man swallowed his saliva, quickly lowered his head and said respectfully: "Old madam, please take a seat next to me. I will go and invite the shopkeeper here."
Chen Yu nodded: "Excuse me."
"No trouble, no trouble. Madam, please come with me." The boy asked Chen Yu to sit down at the side. Then he bowed his body and took a few steps back, turned around and stomped upstairs.
Soon someone came over to bring hot tea and snacks.
Pan Yuling whispered: "Mom, do you really want to order here?"
"It's not that we can't book, but it's common for stores to bully customers. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to see the person in charge." Chen Yu lowered his voice and said to Pan Yuling.
Pan Yuling pursed her lips, what her mother said made sense.
Without even bothering with a cup of tea, a plump, chubby middle-aged man in a satin robe came over with a smile on his face.
When he got close, he clasped his fists and said, "A distinguished guest is coming to the door. Jiang An is not far away to welcome you. The old lady wants too many things. Why don't you go upstairs and talk slowly?"
"You're welcome, shopkeeper. The Jiang family's porcelain and pottery are the best in the entire Dingtao County. We also came here because of their reputation. Sorry for bothering you." Chen Yu stood up and returned the courtesy and said.
Jiang An turned sideways: "Old madam, please, our boss is waiting in the flower hall."
Chen Yu took Pan Yuling and Su Liulang and followed Jiang An upstairs. Jiang An asked with a smile on his face: "The old lady looks strange, are you not from Dingtao County?"
"We are from Qingniu County." Chen Yu said.
Jiang An immediately said: "Qingniu County is a good place, a treasure land of Feng Shui. Mr. Li has reached the position of prefect in one step. I am very happy and congratulated."
Chen Yu glanced at Jiang An: "The shopkeeper's information is really well-informed."
"There are many people doing business, so naturally I have heard some. What is your surname, old lady?" Jiang An asked with a smile.
Chen Yu said calmly: "My husband's surname is Su."
"Mrs. Su, please come quickly." Jiang An's smile deepened a little.
Chen Yu glanced at Jiang An from the corner of his eye, suspecting that this person also knew something about the Su family. That was good, because he knew that the Su family was easy to handle.
After Jiang An reported it, he invited Chen Yu and several others to come in.
The walls around the flower hall are lined with antique racks, and all kinds of porcelain are exquisite at first glance. A middle-aged man in a moon-white gown sat on a chair in the center. When he saw Chen Yu, he stood up, cupped his fists and saluted: "No.
It’s really refreshing to think that the headmaster of the women’s school can come to the Jiang family to choose porcelain.”
Chen Yu returned the favor: "Jiang Dashan is really a man of great powers. I've been exposed before I even reported my family status. I'm very frightened."
I’ll write the next chapter during the day tomorrow
