Chapter 170: Spending money is a skill, and the skill is superb(1/2)

Bai Muyan tilted his head and looked at Xu Tianxin and said, "I haven't seen your shop yet."

Xu Tianxin thought for a while: "At this time, the house should be completely white. That's just right. Let's go there and draw the drawings."

When Xu Tianxin passed by Wang Yusheng, he said hello: "Uncle Wang."

"Ai."

Bai Muyan saw that Tian Xin'er specially greeted the strong man in front of him, so he nodded accordingly.

When the two people passed by, Wang Yusheng followed them with his eyes, watching their backs as they talked and laughed.

In fact, he had been observing for a while, starting from the time one of them was waiting in front of the house and the other came out of the house.

How to describe that feeling?

Wang Yusheng thought:

Standing in front of the steps, always whispering.

Even when he was speechless, Bai Xiucai always held back his smile, as if he always wanted to laugh. The two of them stood together without saying anything.

The spade in Wang Yusheng's hand fell to the ground inexplicably.

He stood there and thought for a while, then turned and went to the back of the house to find Xu Youliang.

At this time, Xu Youliang held a charcoal pen in his ear and measured the dimensions of the dried trees. He was thinking about how he could save some money to build cabinets and use the saved wood to add some small stools.

"Second child."

"Why is Brother Wang here?"

Wang Yusheng was afraid that others would hear him, so he pulled Xu Youliang's arm and walked away, then asked: "Do you know that the prodigy from the Bai family is here? He is the scholar."

Xu Youliang said he knew, he said hello when they first met: "What's the matter?"

Wang Yusheng hesitated.

He didn't want to say that he was afraid that after watching Tian Xin'er for a long time, he would be obsessed with Bai Xiucai's beauty and be unable to extricate himself. We are girls, and in terms of beauty, Bai Xiucai should be obsessed with our baby's appearance, so he should not belittle his own daughter.

We can only start from the aspect of first meeting and fearing that our heart will pound after a long time.

Wang Yusheng hesitantly reminded Xu Youliang that Tian Xin'er was already a cardamom. According to the village custom, thirteen years old turned fourteen years old. Although he was still young, he would be engaged as early as others.

Therefore, if you are older than you are young, girls are still precocious, so they cannot get along with foreign men for too long, and it is easy to overthink things for a long time. This overthinking does not mean that the villagers gossip, but that they are afraid of Tian Xin

After getting along with others, my son would spend the night thinking about his dreams. This is how many little girls started.

"Second brother, do you understand what I mean? If you really want to think about that, you should let the man be confused first. We shouldn't lose our souls first. I'm a little worried because of this. I see Tian Xin'er today

He always laughs and never goes to work."

Wang Yusheng was afraid that the explanation would not be adequate, so he gave an example, saying that his niece was younger than Tian Xin'er. He was so impressed by the poor boy in Majiagou that he rushed to that direction in the end. If he held on steady, he would be able to get more gifts.

He didn't come in the end, which is the price of being tempted in the first place. Not to mention, the Bai family's family background is already excellent, and it's easy not to look down on us. He is worried about this.

Only then did Xu Youliang understand.

After understanding it, he said: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. That is your niece you are talking about. My niece follows my mother."

Xu Youliang now fully understands what kind of person his mother is.

That means no matter how many old men you have contact with, there is no personal relationship.

Moreover, any old man who is willing to say a few more words has interests involved, and will eventually be developed into a subordinate. That's how he is.

"No..." Wang Yusheng thought to himself: Why is this still being carried?

He used his niece as an example out of kindness.

Xu Laoer didn't wait for Wang Yusheng to speak again, he laughed and said he didn't mean anything else.

What he meant was: "The one in your family is made of pure cardamom. Maybe you will start to think about useless things when you get older. The one in my family is made of money. And when it comes to finding a husband, it seems like you are in your forties.

It has to be very transparent.”

Not to mention cardamom, I'm afraid my niece will have enough energy after she has passed her prime.

Being able to make Xu Laoer swear to say this means that he has evidence.

One of the evidences is that he was working outside the window one day and accidentally heard Xiao Qin and Tian Xin'er chatting.

While Xiao Qin was frying fish floss, she told her niece, who was making a fire, that she had decided to meet him on a blind date.

His niece immediately said: "I really don't understand. What kind of people would make a lifelong commitment after meeting once or twice? It's so easy to fall in love with each other. It's really inexplicable."

His wife: It’s not surprising, it’s not just me and your uncle who are standing here.

His niece: What I said is that you will settle down for life because you like her. Are you marrying because you like her? At most, my uncle is interested in your aunt.

"Your second uncle has never liked me?"

"Auntie, when you asked this question, you already had the answer in your mind, didn't you? I'm tired of analyzing it."

Then his niece added: "Even at the beginning, my second uncle didn't even have any interest in you, aunt. He may have weighed the pros and cons and decided that it would be better to work in the house for the little money he spent marrying you."

At that time, his heart went cold when he was listening outside. If he allowed his niece and his wife to continue chatting, he was really afraid that his niece would say next: "Let's make peace and let my second uncle go out."

So, I haven't figured it out yet, even my uncle is fooled.

Moreover, a child who can say such things can fall in love with Bai Xiucai after only joking and chatting for a while? He wouldn't believe it even to death.

To use my niece's exact words, isn't that inexplicable?

Xu Laoer had serious suspicions that his niece could not help but wanted Bai Xiucai to help sell soap locusts. Just let him go, no compensation for the loss.

Wang Yusheng was helpless, what kind of uncle was he? He was unreliable, so he had no choice but to go to Liu Laozhu again.

Wang Yusheng didn't want to be so troubled.

Let's put it this way, if Aunt Xu was here today, not to mention the two children talking together, even if they really hugged each other, he would help blindfold others. This means that Aunt Xu gave permission.

But it was precisely because the Xu family was not around that he would rather take care of things than take care of them.

Maybe Liu Laozhu had the same idea as Wang Yusheng.

Isn't that right? Liu Laozhu found an excuse to abandon Bai's father and specially came to Xu's shop to listen secretly, planning to cough at any time if things went wrong.



"Do you have a drawing board?" Bai Muyan was curious about everything in the Xu family's shop. Even the walls of the Xu family's house were whiter than others.

But what surprised him even more was that Xu Tianxin had an exclusive drawing board, which he did not expect.

Xu Tianxin disagreed and said: "One day I accidentally said that I wanted a drawing board, and the next day my second uncle made it for me. I was surprised." She said casually.

Bai Muyan could feel that this girl without a father or mother in front of her did not lack love.

While Xu Tianxin was drawing with charcoal, he introduced her business in three and a half sentences:

"If I were to sell a drip watch to someone else, I would use a woven dial and ask the old craftsmen in the village to make it as exquisite as possible, including the hands that would be distinguished and colored. Four candle bodies would be installed next to them, and candles would be inserted.

It can be used as a lamp and tell the time."

Xu Tianxin was drawing pictures as she narrated. She was drawing a bird. After drawing, she wanted to pull her hair. No wonder her second uncle made a wood carving of a female ghost after reading her drawings. Why was it so ugly?

She wasn't embarrassed at all. She drew the picture to explain the meaning to Bai Muyan. She didn't sell paintings, so her expression didn't change at all after drawing the ugly picture, and she continued to introduce:

"Brother Sihai, when the time comes, here and here, can you understand? There will be a small wooden bird that comes out to play drums at all hours. Of course, gongs can also be played, and bells can be played. I will see what is installed.

What does it look good for?"

“Shouldn’t we consider which one is more cost-effective?”

Xu Tianxin was asked: "I still think it's better to make something good to look at. After all, it's expensive, so people must think it's worth it."

Xu Tianxin named the water dropper "Lassing".

She knew very well what the selling point of her water clock was.

One is the water drop watches already on the market here, which are usually large and do not have dial hands. How to make the hands rotate on the dial is a feature of her place.

Another selling point is that the time is calibrated. Even if someone imitates it later, she may not be on time. Because she adjusts it according to the time in the live broadcast room, you must know that the time changes as the water level rises.

In addition to the above two points, it is difficult for others to imitate for a while. In terms of appearance, she is not as good as a skilled craftsman. After all, the craftsmanship of the villagers is limited. I can only try my best to make it look better and use creativity.

thought.

When it came to money, Bai Muyan asked, "What price do you plan to sell it for?" He admitted that what Tian Xin just said were all selling points.

"Fifty taels, the small one is fifty taels, and the big one is sixty. I just don't know Brother Sihai, the family background of your classmates..."

Bai Muyan did not directly talk about the family background of his classmates, but said that compared with them, he was: he was shy with little money, but he only had enough money left to look at.

Keep a penny in your empty pocket and guard it to prevent others from laughing at you.

Given the conditions of the Bai family, if Bai Muyan could use these two lines in a poem, Xu Tianxin understood that the students in the academy were from a much better off family than the Bai family.

Xu Tianxin smiled.

Bai Muyan suddenly asked: "Do you know how many classmates I have in the same class? Have you ever thought about how you will spend the money you earn? Do you have to use it to buy books?"

Bai Muyan was very curious about how Xu Tianxin would spend it after making a lot of money.

Buying clothes, buying jewelry for your home, or simply not thinking about this issue clearly.
