Reborn Craftsman

"I'm talking about your father!" Zhang Xiaoyu pointed at Liu Dageng.

"His old man is even worse, because my craftsmanship has surpassed his two years ago!" Liu Xing leaned back on the chair: "How about this, you can show me the golden bean steamer and the original copy, maybe I can still make it. There will be a silver lining."

"You?" Zhang Xiaoyu expressed doubts.

Zhang Xiaoying was a little moved, compared to Liu Dageng, she liked dealing with Liu Xing very much, even if Liu Xing in front of her was bragging, she still wanted to give it a try.

After all, Liu Dageng is Liu Xing's father. If Liu Xing can't do it, Liu Dageng as his father will definitely not let him go.

After hesitating for a while, she said: "Then when do you have time, my golden bean steamer is at the workshop, which is a bit far from the market."

"Today is definitely not possible. You see, my father is so drunk, I have to send him home!" Liu Xing smiled bitterly: "That's right! Sister, since your ancestors were born as bamboo craftsmen, do you have any special tools? Pass it down?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Xiaoying hesitated for a moment: "If this golden bean steamer doesn't have special bamboo craftsman's tools, I'm afraid it will be difficult to repair, or make a new one?"

"En!" Liu Xing nodded.

But what Zhang Xiaoying said was only one of the reasons. If he could repair the golden bean steamer and at the same time get a whole set of bamboo craftsman's tools that money can't buy, then he would make a lot of money.

After all, among the blacksmiths around Qingshi Village, it is estimated that none of them can make the blacksmith's tools he likes.

"I have to go back and look for it, but it should be there!" Zhang Xiaoying looked at Zhang Xiaoyu: "Brother, or I will leave this matter to you, and give him the golden bean steamer and bamboo craftsman's tools within three days .”

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Zhang Xiaoyu asked cautiously.

"Sure!" Zhang Xiaoying replied.

"Alright then!" Zhang Xiaoyu shrugged, his sister was in charge of everything in the house, since he was so sure, he naturally had nothing to say.

"Then I'll pay for the meal first!" Zhang Xiaoying looked at the time, then got up and walked towards the cashier.

Liu Xing looked at his father who was snoring so loudly that he suddenly had a headache.

Although he now has a motorcycle, he can carry it back.

But if the father doesn't wake up, he won't make a move for a while!

"It seems that we have to wait in the lobby of the Mingchen Hotel!" Liu Xing laughed at himself.

Zhang Xiaoyu saw Liu Xing's thoughts: "It's all my fault, why don't you carry your father to the front of my house to have a rest?"

"No need!" Liu Xing waved his hand.

"Then my sister and I have to go first, there are still many merchants waiting for our brothers and sisters to deliver the goods!" Zhang Xiaoyu laughed.

"Go!" Liu Xing said.

"Goodbye!" Zhang Xiaoyu left, but Zhang Xiaoying did not leave immediately, but sat down and chatted with Liu Xing for a while before leaving.

To Liu Xing's surprise, Zhang Xiaoying had just left before his father woke up with a lingering fear on his face: "Oh my god! This pair of brothers and sisters finally left."

"Dad, were you pretending to be drunk just now?" Liu Xing asked involuntarily.

"What can I do if I don't pretend to be drunk? I'm not a real master craftsman! It will be embarrassing when I wear clothes." Liu Dageng wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead: "Go! Go! Go! Let's go, Go home! From now on, I will not come here even if I kill them to hand over the dustpan to their brothers and sisters."

"Hahaha..." Liu Xing couldn't help laughing seeing his father looking anxious.

"You still have the nerve to laugh, tell you Liu Xing, your father has never been so embarrassed in his life, and he has never let go of a panic!" Liu Dageng glanced at Liu Xing, seeing a few diners around him cast surprised glances, Immediately got up and walked out of Mingchen Hotel.

"Wait a minute, dad!" Liu Xing followed behind, and after beckoning his father to go back by bicycle first, he began to stroll around the market alone on a motorcycle.

There is no way, the front of the rice noodle shop is rented out, if other materials and tools are not arranged as soon as possible, it will be his money lost every day.

The ingredients in the rice noodle shop are easy to find, this Liu Xing is confident that he can get all of them by going around the city.

But it is hard to find a large bucket for making the secret soup base. You have to find a carpenter to make it yourself, and it is the kind of carpenter who can round logs. Ordinary carpenters are not good, even his third uncle is not competent.

Because before he was reborn, he was a carpenter who learned from his third uncle. He knew that his third uncle didn’t know how to make round logs. tool!

In fact, Liu Xing didn't want to be so troublesome, because the vats used for cooking soup in rice noodle shops will be made of stainless steel in decades, so you can go to Lengzuo shop to order one.

But in order to have a good business for the rice noodle shop, he would rather go to the trouble than order a stainless steel vat to cook the soup.

After all, the wooden vat can completely absorb the spices of the secret soup base. When the fire is heated up, the strong fragrance will float out, and it will last for a long time.

However, to achieve this level, the quality of the custom-made wooden barrels is very high. Even the wood used must not be sloppy. The longer the soup base is prepared, the stronger the aroma will be.

To Liu Xing's disappointment, he almost visited the entire market within a few kilometers, but there was no carpenter's shop in his sight, not even a cold work shop.

In other words, he had to go to the local carpenter to make this big wooden barrel for soup. If he didn't have it, he had to go to the city to have a look.

But Liu Xing knew that it was slim to hope to go to the city, because log carpenters were as rare as aliens at any time.

Only inadvertently, they will appear in front of people from house to house by chance, shouting a quack dialect that they don't understand the custom-made round wooden barrels.

He had done such things before he was reborn, and he didn't make much money, but the calluses on his feet were much thicker.

Of course, there are also many gains, that is, the production of round wood, such as wooden barrels, washbasins, bath tubs and other round wood products, has reached the point of perfection.

In fact, it is not difficult to make round logs with basic carpentry skills, because there is a great connection between the two, but the strange thing is that carpenters who know logs rarely know other carpenter skills, such as making furniture, doors and windows etc.

And carpenters who make doors, windows and furniture don't know how to make logs.

The two seem to have a subconscious rule in them. Although Liu Xing broke this rule before rebirth, he didn't make a fortune at all just like that. old saying.

"Oh! It's been a long time!" Seeing that the sun in the west was about to set, Liu Xing had no choice but to withdraw his thoughts and rode a motorcycle towards Qingshi Village's house.

He decided that if the third uncle was at home, he would go to the third uncle to borrow ax, plane, hand saw and other carpentry tools, and make a big wooden barrel by himself to make the secret soup base.

Although Uncle San's tools are quite different from those of the round carpenter, he believes that with his own craftsmanship, there should be no problem in making a large wooden barrel for soup, at most it just takes a little more time.

Chapter 020 Father's Worries

When I got home, it was already [-]:[-] in the afternoon. Since it was midsummer, it was still dark.

However, the rumble of Liu Xing riding a Wuyang Honda motorcycle attracted all the busy family members, including the fourth uncle Liu Huaqing who was about to go back.

Among them, Liu Dageng looked at Liu Xing in surprise: "Why did you ride back the motorcycle of the wife of the tempeh shop? I heard that this thing needs to drink gasoline to move around. I'm afraid it will cost you a few bucks every time you go back and forth." Gas money, right?"

The implication is that motorcycles are something that rich people can enjoy, we poor people should not join in the fun, I am afraid that the money for eating will be burned by motorcycles.

"Dad, the gasoline at the gas station is only 500 cents a liter, which is enough for me to ride home several times. Besides, this motorcycle was lent to me by Sister Zhang. Isn't he afraid that I will be in danger when I go home late?" ?” Liu Xing patiently explained that there was no other way. At present, it cannot be said that he bought a broken motorcycle for 500 yuan without authorization. Although it was only [-] yuan, he was sure that his father would absolutely kill him.

After all, in the countryside in 1993, 500 yuan could do a lot of things.

Some daughters from poor families can even get married with 500 yuan!
