Chapter 048

In a blink of an eye, the first delivery date agreed with the Lin family was reached. This time, Uncle Lin did not come in person, only the young shopkeeper and a friend beside Uncle Lin.

Lin Zimo naturally did not come, which made Ye Shen, who was a little worried, breathe a sigh of relief.

In order to make more makeup dowries and make more money, this month, my father must go to the field to take care of his fruit trees in addition to sleeping, eating, and morning and evening. At other times, he can say that his hands are not separated from bamboo strips and rattan.

Ye Damin's situation is similar to that of Dad Ye, and it even has to be harder.

It has basically not rained much recently. Ye Damin has to carry water to water the fruit trees and crops in the fields every morning and evening.

The next few days I have to go to the mountains to cut bamboo and pick rattans. When I don’t enter the mountains, I have to break bamboo strips, knead rattans, and weave book baskets.

The father and son worked hard all day long in the shade of the yard or under the eaves, burying their heads and burying their heads. They were busy almost every day until they were so dark that they could no longer see them before they could rest.

Such long-term bowing of the head and hooking the waist and opening bamboo strips or weaving will be a great burden on the waist and cervical vertebrae.

Every time I see this scene, Lin Wan is very worried about their waist and cervical spine.

Seeing that Mr. Ye and Ye Damin worked so hard, Lin Wan remembered the hand-cranked broken bamboo strip machine booting machine I had seen in her previous life. If she could make a hand-cranked broken bamboo strip machine booting machine, it would definitely reduce the workload of the Ye family's father and son.

Lin Wan once thought about drawing the drawings of the hand-cranked broken bamboo strip machine and throwing it quietly into the Ye family yard. After thinking about it over and over again, she finally gave up this idea.

What I learned in my previous life had nothing to do with mechanical manufacturing, nor had I learned to draw drawings. Even if the structure of the hand-cranked broken bamboo strip machine is not complicated, she had also played with the hand-cranked broken bamboo strip machine, but she did not really understand the structure of this machine.

Even if he can draw it, he is afraid that he will only have a form but no spirit, and will not play any role at all, but it may put himself in a dangerous situation.

So Lin Wan could only help her family with Ye Shen to do something within her ability, such as digging earthworms to feed chickens, picking old vegetables and raising rabbits.

Speaking of this month, the whole family has been busy with bamboo weaving and rattan weaving.

But even if the family is so hard-working, due to the limited manpower, there are only twenty makeup boxes made in a month.

Because the weaving of book baskets is relatively simple, and in addition to Ye Damin, Chen also woven together when he is free, so the number of book baskets is higher.

Early this morning, Dad Ye took out all the makeup box and book baskets and carefully checked and counted them. He had to calculate the income. The makeup box and book basket together had an income of less than three taels of silver.

A month of more than three taels of silver is already a pretty good income in the countryside, but compared to the hard work and hard work of the family, the average amount of money is really not much money per person every day. Lin Wan realized that it was difficult for the working people in ancient times to make money.

The young shopkeeper asked the guy to count the number of makeup boxes and book baskets, and settle the accounts according to the contract, and took out three small silver ingots of one or two taels of silver from his purse and three hundred and twenty cents of copper coins to hand over the line section of Old Man Ye.

Dad Ye took it and counted it roughly, and handed it over to Chen.

Chen took it and carefully counted it and confirmed that it was right, then he came out of the main hall happily.

The young shopkeeper curled his lips and ordered the young man to move the makeup box and bookcase to the carriage down the slope, and then looked at Changsui.

Since the goods and money were finished, Changsui stood up and was about to say goodbye, but Dad Ye took out a basket from behind and put it in front of Changsui.

The young shopkeeper stretched his neck and looked into the basket, but saw that there were more than a dozen chicks and ducks woven bamboo and rattan.

Before the president could express anything, the young shopkeeper said unhappily: "Our uncle likes the makeup box and the book basket, but he doesn't collect all the garbage. If you put such things in the shop, wouldn't it be better to lower the taste of the shop? No matter how short the money is, you will not do this!"

Ye Zhan, who had been listening to the noise outside the main hall, was immediately unhappy and jumped up and rushed into the main hall to grab the basket back.

Don’t like these gadgets? Humph, he doesn’t want to give them yet!

Ye Zhan had long disliked the young shopkeeper. Since he stepped into the Ye family courtyard, the disdain on the young shopkeeper's face has never disappeared!

Ye Zhan still felt that he had given the chicken and duckling he had carefully woven to such a person, but he still felt that this person had lowered the taste of the chicken and duckling!

This man dares to say that his little chicken and duck lowered the taste of the Lin family’s shop, which is unbearable!

This shopkeeper was probably just mentioned. It’s not a big deal to be young and arrogant, but why didn’t he think about why his master signed a contract with the Ye family? Since the Ye family dared to take out the things, it must be worth it.

To be honest, the young shopkeeper did misunderstand, and he definitely underestimated the gadgets in the basket.

Although it is just some bamboo and rattan chickens and ducks, these are all equipped with mechanisms like the makeup box.

The first person who took down the stalks and made the chickens and ducks was Ye Qing. He made the chickens and ducks just used them as toys for Ye Shen and Lin Wan.

One day while studying, Ye Zhan happened to see Mr. Ye installing a mechanism for the makeup box. Suddenly, Lin Wan muttered a word in her mind, and a flash of inspiration was decided to install a mechanism for the chicken and duckling to move, realizing Lin Wan's wish to let the bamboo chicken and duckling walk by herself.

So Ye Zhan pestered Mr. Ye to ask about the production and installation of the mechanism. Under the patient guidance of Mr. Ye, Ye Zhan spent a lot of thought. After failing countless times, he finally succeeded in making a little chicken and duck who could walk in the mechanism.

When Lin Wan saw a moving chick for the first time, she had to admire Ye Zhan's intelligence and agility.

Of course, at the beginning, Ye Zhan made this kind of chicken and duck with the mechanism just to make his younger brother and sister happy.

Until one day Xiaocao ran over excitedly and told him that the friends in the village were so envious and wanted to see his walking bamboo chick.

Ye Zhan felt a little moved when he heard this, and combined with his younger brother and sister's joyful appearance when he got the moving chick and duckling, he saw business opportunities.

Since my younger brothers and sisters and friends in the village like mechanics, they can make mechanics and ducklings for money.

Ye Zhan kept his head down and made a few more chickens and ducks. He planned to take these chickens and ducks to Chongfu Temple to try his luck.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke out his meaning, he was strongly opposed by Dad Ye: "How many pilgrims can there be in Chongfu Temple in this hot day? Don't think about these things in the future. Learn more from your elder brother and read more when you have time."

Ye Zhan was naturally dissatisfied with it because he knew that what Mr. Ye said was not true about not having pilgrims.

Although the incense in Chongfu Temple is not as prosperous as during the Great Temple Fair, it is also very prosperous. Some people even sent the elderly and children to Chongfu Temple to escape the summer heat. How could there be no pilgrims?!
