History chat group: I just want to make money

The old man has been working hard all his life, but he has never seen anything like this.

It really looks like a stove from the outside, and there are no complicated carvings, and there is no need to beat the iron hard, so that's no problem at all.

It's just that he didn't dare to finish his words, so he thought about it in his mind before saying:

"My lord, I can beat this thing, but I can't guarantee whether it can be beaten into what you need."

Li Chengjiu nodded after hearing this, "It doesn't matter. Understanding everything requires a process. As long as you can truly understand the principle of making a coal stove, it doesn't matter how many times you fail."

He smiled and then continued: "Of course, I will advance all expenses to you in advance. You should not get involved in the mine. If you do this well, I may ask you to do more things in the future."

After hearing this, the old man was flattered and hurriedly saluted:

"My lord, please give me directions. I know what to do."

That's what's good about honest people, they don't have as many twists and turns as you do.

As long as he takes this matter to heart, Li Chengjiu is 100% sure that he will do his best in this matter.

He left one hundred taels of silver as research funds, and gave another ten taels to the old man alone, which was regarded as a guarantee of his living expenses.

Blacksmithing requires too much energy. How can you do it without eating enough?

The old man refused again and again, but still couldn't get over the prince.

In short, eat more meat and put all your energy into forging iron.

The old man burst into tears of gratitude and clenched his fist fiercely, determined to never let the prince down.

Of course, Li Chengjiu is just the one who leads the way. He doesn't need to worry about the rest. He only cares about the results.

Now that the pie has been painted, the next step is to consider the store decoration.

After bidding farewell to the old man, he asked the little boy to lead the way to Ershan's father, an old carpenter who lived in the west end of the village.

Before the two of them entered the hospital, they heard a stabbing sound coming from the courtyard.

Turning around the courtyard door, I saw a young boy with his back turned, squatting on the ground and carefully sawing wood.

"Ershan, where is your father?"

It is estimated that these two boys have a good relationship. The little boy was not polite when he entered the hospital. He tilted a ladle of water and took a few sips. Suddenly he remembered that the prince was following behind him, so he found a wooden cup and poured the prince a drink as well.

Li Chengjiu was not polite, took the wooden cup and took a sip.

Then he held the cup on his hand and looked at it carefully. The workmanship was good and the workmanship was exquisite.

Seeing someone coming, Ershan didn't look back and just said casually:

"My father went to Hutoushan to carry coal. He just took over the order from Liu Sanniang in the next village. He already had a lot to do and didn't know how to finish it quickly, so he just ran around."

"Um?"

The words were filled with anger, but the voice sounded a bit girly no matter what.

Taking a closer look at this figure from the back, I saw that he had a small frame and thin arms and legs. If it weren't for his name, I would have thought he was a girl.

But when the boy threw the saw aside and stood up and turned his head, Li Chengjiu was speechless.

This is a fucking girl!

Well……

Why would a girl be called Ershan?

After hearing Ershan's words, the little boy glanced at the prince behind him and then said:

"Hey, Your Majesty paid so much money to give us a living? Isn't this better than the orders you took? I think you have more money than your father."

This kid is quite good at talking, Li Chengjiu chuckled.

Ershan's eyebrows stood up when he heard this, "You!"

But before he finished speaking, he spotted Li Chengjiu standing in the courtyard at a glance.

"Xinjiang...His Royal Highness the King of Xinjiang?!!"

I was shocked, and I hurriedly ran forward, bent my knees, and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The little girl just spoke out loud and had no intention of complaining about Your Majesty. Please forgive me for your sins!"

How could Li Chengjiu care about this? He quickly pulled the girl up and said with a smile:

"I think you are better than your father at this point. You must do what you say you should do. If you lose your credibility, you will have uneasy conscience no matter how much money you make."

Ershan was a little dazed.

Is this still the uneducated Prince Xinjiang who is the source of all evil?

I felt a little nervous in my heart, but I still hurriedly replied: "Thank you... thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Chengjiu waved his hand, tilted his head and looked at a few small wooden blocks on the ground before asking: "Do you know how to be a carpenter?"

Ershan nodded, "You and your dad are helping me, so I can do some odd jobs now."

"Aren't you afraid that if a girl does the craftsmanship of a man like this, she won't be able to get married in the future?"

Li Chengjiu joked, looking at the girl's nervous expression, such words could actually lighten the atmosphere.

When Ershan heard this, his cheeks turned red.

"Your Majesty, I..."

He looked a little dissatisfied, but the little kid beside him smiled and said:

"It's okay, Your Majesty, I won't blame my wife for doing these things."

"You little brat, you want a beating, don't you?"

"Well……"

Li Chengjiu was speechless again.

Well, this guy can pick up girls so calmly, okay, he will become a big deal in the future.

Seeing Ershan wheeling a wooden stick around the yard, he started chasing the little kid. The little kid was laughing and walking like a monkey. Ershan was so angry that he snored.

Li Chengjiu then stepped forward to stop Ershan and said with a smile:

"Okay, today the king comes here to talk to your father about something. I wonder when he will come back?"

Before Ershan could speak, the little boy had already jumped outside the courtyard gate and shouted:

"Your Majesty, I'll just go and shout. Remember to help me enlighten my wife and tell her not to beat his man all the time. There is nothing womanly about her."

After saying that, Li Chengjiu turned around and disappeared without a trace.

Ershan bared his teeth, but did not dare to get angry in front of the prince, but Li Chengjiu smiled helplessly.

In fact, he liked this boy quite a lot. Apart from Jia Youcai, this boy was the first guy to be so wanton with him.

Of course, I am not calling this mean.

What he wants is this kind of openness and honesty.

Seeing that he and the prince were the only two people left in the courtyard, Ershan became even more nervous.

"Your Majesty, I will give you a glass of water, please first..."

He glanced around, quickly moved a wooden stool next to the door and continued: "You sit down for a while, my father will be back later."

Li Chengjiu told her not to go to such trouble, and shook the wooden cup in his hand to indicate that he had just drank.

"Ershan, why did your father give you such a name?"

I had nothing to do and asked casually.

Ershan curled his lips and then said: "My daughter's original name is Guo Shanfeng. The name Ershan was passed down to me by Xiao Zhazi. He called me that in the village every day. Later, everyone in the village also called me that.

.”

"..."

Li Chengjiu was speechless.

This little brat is a real ghost. This is definitely behavior that can reduce competitors.

He chuckled and dropped the subject again.

The scene was embarrassing again.

He tilted his head, glanced at the few small wooden sticks that Ershan was sorting just now, and found another topic and asked:

"What are you doing?"

After hearing this, Ershan picked up the piece of wood and explained, "I'm making a board buckle."

"Buckle?" Li Chengjiu was puzzled.

Ershan continued: "My father always fixes the board tightly when packing cabinets for others. I wonder if I can make a board that can be changed at will. I only have an idea now, so I just want to give it a try.

"

Hearing this, Li Chengjiu's pupils dilated.

"Isn't this just a stopper that can be adjusted in size at will?"

He quickly took the wooden stick in the girl's hand and looked at it carefully.

When he raised his head again, green light suddenly appeared in his eyes.

I found a treasure today!
