Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated!
Chapter 245
"Qiaoqi, Xiaoqi, if you have something to say, I'll tell them!"
Mr. Xu came to Niu Dali's front, accompanied by a smiling face, "What's the matter, look at my brother's face, don't get angry, calm down, let's talk slowly."
"Brother Xu, it's really not that we're nitpicking. You go and see what those people are doing. It's just that bucket. It won't take long for it to break."
"And how much water can the bucket hold?"
"If this waterwheel is built like they do, it's just a piece of shit, it's not worth it!"
"This is smashing my signboard!"
No wonder Niu Dali was angry, as a craftsman, what he values most is whether the things he made can be used and whether they are easy to use.
Even if some of the parts were not made by him, they were his oversight. In the end, it was impossible for him to pat his butt and leave after taking the money.
And if this waterwheel is ripped off, who else in Anshun County would recognize his Niu Dali craftsmanship?
This is not just smashing the signboard, it is completely smashing his Niu Dali's job.
He was able to endure not to beat someone, because he had already seen Old Master Xu's face.
After all, Mr. Xu was the eldest brother he recognized. He was invited by Mr. Xu. When things got out of hand, it was Mr. Xu who was in trouble in the end.
Because Niu Dali can completely throw his hands and leave without hesitation.
"Brother, I have wronged you!"
Mr. Xu patted Niu Dali on the shoulder, and understood that Niu Dali was already restraining because of him.
"I'll take care of this!"
Because of the remnants of the previous dynasty, Mr. Xu was also full of anger in his heart. Now, coming here are these bad things again, and the anger in my heart is rising.
"Guan Laojiu, it's you!"
When Mr. Xu came from a distance, he had already seen who was talking to Niu Dali.
Guan Laojiu is a well-known carpenter craftsman in their Lingshui Village. And he and Guan Laoqi were born from the same parents. In Lingshui Village, where Guan's surname is the mainstay, as the younger brother of the patriarch, Guan Laojiu is also very famous.
However, this card face of his came to Mr. Xu, and it was completely useless.
"Pack up your things and get out!"
Mr. Xu controlled his temper and didn't do anything.
This is for Guan Laoqi's face, and it is also for Guan Laoqi and Guan Laojiu's father who died young.
Guan Laojiu was directly named by Mr. Xu, and was stunned.
Because his relationship with Mr. Xu is also very good.
Especially when he was young, he followed Old Master Xu around for a long time. It's just that when I grew up and got married, the relationship gradually faded.
But in Guan Laojiu's heart, he and Mr. Xu are both old friends, which is incomparable to an outsider like Niu Dali.
"Brother Xu, no, listen to my explanation!"
Guan Laojiu stood up, "I'm not—"
"Lao Jiu, what kind of temper are you, I know!"
Mr. Xu raised his hand to interrupt Guan Laojiu's explanation, "When you were a child, you often followed me. It's not too much to pretend that you are grown up by me."
"Don't explain this matter today, and I won't listen either."
"If you still recognize me as a brother, then don't say anything, pack up your things honestly, and go!"
If it weren't for the former friendship, Mr. Xu really didn't want to save face for Guan Laojiu.
Mr. Xu knew very well what Xiao Jiujiu was fighting against. It's just that he thinks that building a waterwheel can be fun for him.
Wanting to find an excuse to squeeze Niu vigorously away, he came to do this business. But Mr. Xu understands that this bastard is a shrewd person. This waterwheel is related to the livelihood of a village, can it be a joke?
If waterwheels were so easy to build, there would not be only a few famous waterwheel builders in Anshun County.
Although there are some people in this world who don't live up to their names.
But craftsmen eat craft rice.
There is no false person under the reputation, and there is basically no big deviation in the craftsman.
"Okay, okay, I'll go!"
In the face of the angry but still unhappy Old Master Xu, Guan Laojiu packed up his things very well and left.
And after dealing with Guan Laojiu's thorn, the rest of the people don't need to be beaten by Mr. Xu, and they all understand who they should listen to when they work here.
"How about it? How long will it take to fix it?"
After Mr. Xu shocked the audience, he pulled Niu Dali to the side to speak.
"As long as you hurry up and get your work done, it will take five days at most to get this first waterwheel upright."
"This is good, this is good!"
When Old Man Xu heard this, he was relieved.
"Brother Xu, don't be too happy!"
Niu Dali didn't wait for Mr. Xu to be happy for a while, and then poured a ladle of cold water on him.
"If it really encounters a severe drought like 20 years ago, the water surface of the Peach Blossom River will continue to fall. At that time, the waterwheel will not be able to eat water, so it will be useless!"
"Uh……"
Old Man Xu grimaced, "You can't wait a little longer, can you?"
During the severe drought 20 years ago, the fields of Xiangyi Mansion could almost be said to be fruitless. If it weren't for the court's disaster relief, it would have been timely, and that year, I don't know how many people would have died.
But even so, it is still heard that some elderly people died on hunger strike, just to save a few more rations for the rest of the family.
That year, Mr. Xu went into the mountains to hunt, relying on game and wild vegetables, plus the relief food from the court, the family was able to carry it.
"Brother, to tell the truth, I also want to rain in the old days!"
"But in the past two days, I have been repairing water trucks by the river. According to my observation, this severe drought is inevitable."
"Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy."
"My old man's eyes are really poisonous!"
"What else do you say? Quietly store food!"
Mr. Xu looked up at the blue sky above his head, not to mention how bad it was.
"Do your best and obey the destiny!"
Returning from the riverside, Mr. Xu saw his daughter-in-law playing with Fu Bao in the yard, the anguish on his face disappeared instantly, he put on a smiley face, and approached with a smile.
"Daddy's little Fubao, do you miss Daddy?"
"what!"
Fubao looked sideways at the father who greeted her, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Why did she always feel that her father's smile was so fake?
"came back?"
"How is the waterwheel being repaired?"
Mrs. Xu looked at Mr. Xu with a slightly serious expression. From the day that Mr. Xu said there was going to be a severe drought, she was also paying attention to the weather.
Some things, if you don't pay attention to it, you don't feel anything.
But once you look at it, you will find that there is a problem everywhere, and something is not right.
Today's old lady Xu also firmly believes that this day is going to be a big drought.
"In five days at most, the first waterwheel will be able to stand up."
"It's just that, according to Dali, their old man thinks this year's drought can be compared to the one 20 years ago."
