"Good man, how could he ask for food? The old ladies looked at it pitifully, and they could utter words of luck, and the broken silver was given piece by piece. He started begging for food in the streets and temples at the age of seven, but five years later, he would build a big brick house." "You think
she lucky?"
"Not only that, he also saved a pair of grandparents from Fucheng on that street.Hey yo I thank the old woman, I thank you, and since then I will send people to deliver goods to his house during the Lunar New Year. Every time the goods are delivered enough for his family to use for a few months." "Yuan Laorong is a motivated person
. After learning that the houses built by the people in Fucheng were all brick and green tile houses, he relied on the rich man's relationship to go to the brick kiln in Fucheng as an apprentice. A few years later, he asked to marry the old master's only daughter, and said After giving birth to a son, let the second son take the old master's last name and inherit incense from the old master's family." "The old man was very pleased
that he immediately agreed. After Yuan Laorong married his daughter, he would follow Yuan Lao Rong back to Yanfu Village and build a brick kiln." "
Due to the brick kiln, the Yuan Laorong family makes a lot of money every year, coupled with the relationship between the wealthy households in the prefecture, the Yuan Laorong family has improved. Go to the village chief and the village chief. And this time the county will remove half of the county chief, he has not been removed, and his position is safe." He Shiliu gave
Gu Dashan Yuan Laorong's family affairs, Gu Dafu said it again, and at the end of the afternoon, the three of them finally arrived at Yanfu Village.
Yanfu Village was in front of Qingfu City, far away from their Dafeng Village, and the three of them walked briskly for two and a half hours before arriving.
Yanfu Village was huge and quite rich, and Shangjia Village was considered to be the two richest villages in Qingfu City.
Every household in the village had men working in the brick kiln at Yuan Laorong's house Now they were taking a nap and started working at the brick kiln.
A man looked at He Shiliu, narrowed his eyes for a while, and said with a smile: "You are in the stone business in Dafeng Village, why did you bring a stranger here this time? Who're they? What are they here for?"
Gu Dashan had been training in the workshop for two months, and now he was not as embarrassing as before. Hearing this, he said with a smile: "My family wants to build a shop. I knew there was a brick kiln in your village, so I came to Yuan Lichang to buy green bricks." The man laughed
. He said: "He's here to work for us, so come with me, and I'll take you to see Brother Rong."
Yuan Laorong's house was behind the village, which was an ordinary blue brick house, and the man led them to the door., patted the door, and shouted inside: "Sanzi, there is a visitor, there is a visitor, open the door fast."
Then he said to Gu Dashan and the others: "Later, you follow Sanzi and go in to look for Old Brother Rong. I'll go first. "I'm going to work. "
After saying that, he lowered his coat to his shoulder and left.
The door of Yuan's house was opened, and a fat ten-year-old boy opened the door, and said to Gu Dashan outside the door: "Are you here to buy blue bricks? Please come in, my father is home.
" After leading Gu Dashan and the others into the house, Yuan Laorong and his second son welcomed him.
After Yuan Laorong learned that Gu Dashan was the owner of the Gu Workshop in Dafeng Village, he was very surprised: "It turns out he was the owner of the Gu Workshop, so our business was settled." Yuan Laorong is straightforward and has a heart to
following Gu Dashan and the others befriended, and immediately lowered the price of green bricks for them Originally, green bricks cost five cents, but now cost only four pennies, and the tiles are also cheaper for them.
Gu Dashan was very embarrassed and wanted to refuse, Yuan Laorong said: "Don't worry about this, just treat our two families as friends." Gu Dashan felt a little
in his heart when he heard this, Yuan Laorong would not beat the idea of their workshop?
Yuan Laorong was very smart, looking at his tense face, he laughed and said, "Sister Gu, don't panic, I don't mean anything, I just admire your family and want to be friends with your family."
Second son Yuan Laorong was smart, and explained beside him: "Uncle Gu, don't worry, my father is telling the truth. He greatly admired the owner of your Gu workshop. He often says that you are capable, and you have been here for half a year. Just starting a business and opening a workshop, they were people with great skills. People with skills like yours, if you meet people who aren't friends with each other, you'll be stupid. ”More importantly,
the Gu family had a good relationship with Jiang Xianwei.There were also three boys who worked in the county government and the army office, so if someone with the ability and support came to the door, it would be a good idea, his father would only think of something else if he was stupid.
Second son Yuan Laorong wanted to inherit the incense of his grandfather's family, so his last name was Chang, and his name was Chang Errui. He was eighteen this year, not only tall and strong, but also very good at speaking. People were flattered, listening to him, Gu Dashan and Gu Dafu were very comfortable.
Especially Gu Dafu, who glanced at Chang Errui a few times.
Hearing this, Gu Dashan felt relieved and continued to talk to Yuan Laorong.
Due to Yuan Laorong's intention to make friends, their journey went smoothly, and they quickly negotiated how many green bricks and tiles to buy.
Yuan Laorong also invited the head mason in the village and met with them.After discussing the wages and setting a date for digging the foundation and sending blue bricks, he said, the three Gu Dashan happily returned to the village.
In the evening, Gu Dashan said to the family: "Green bricks only cost four cents per piece, and new tiles cost a penny per piece, which can save you a lot of money." We saved twenty taels of silver.
"
They wanted to build three shops, and they needed a large amount of blue bricks and tiles, even though they only lost a penny, three shops counted, but they saved twenty taels of silver.
"Hey, Li Chang Yuan is truly generous, and we can't be too stingy. When they send blue bricks, we have to bring them boiled meat, roasted duck, and seasonings." Compared to Yuan Laorong, Gu
Dafu was more interested in Chang Errui.
He waited for the people from some families to leave, and stayed there specifically, and said to the third grandfather and third grandmother: "Chang Errui, that young man, seems a good, wise man, he said, able to do something, and steady, even though he wanted to inherit incense from the grandfather's family, he couldn't be given a last name." Yuan, but this is good for Mei.
" mother-in-law and sister-in-law, she had to make trouble every day, then the Yuan family had built a blue brick house for Chang Errui, she said that after she got married, after she got married, the young couple will move into a new home and officially inherit the Chang family incense stick, and there is no need to support Yuan Laorong and his wife.
" the final decision on how to live, so she doesn't have to be angry with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law." More and more
Gu Dafu spoke, the more excited he became, and he wanted to save face and find a matchmaker to go to Yuan's house to propose.
And Chang Errui had not been engaged at eighteen, and that was also because he wanted to keep filial piety for the old man. Now that he had just come out of service for two months, the Yuan Laorong family was planning to see Chang Errui's wife.
Gu Dafu felt that this was fate, or he went to Yuan's house and met Chang Errui just as he was about to find a marriage for Sister Mei.
