Sign in and get rich in farming
Chapter 97 Yu Hongdou Accepts the Finished Product
"At present, all the soap nuts have been used up. Thirty-two sets of finished soaps have been made, twelve sets of oil-free soap nuts, and more than forty sets of miscellaneous items that cannot be made into sets." Duan Zhuangtou reported the number to Yu Hongdou.
Recalling Yu Song's previous instructions, Duan Zhuangtou reported to the young lady: "The young master told us before that the people in Cigou Village on Piba Mountain where my aunt married eat a lot of sapodilla rice, and there should have been a sapodilla forest. I plan to send four or five people to take a look."
"Pipa Mountain? Is it far? Is it dangerous?" It was the first time Yu Hongdou heard of this place.
"Piba Mountain is located in the two mountains behind Beishan Mountain. The trees are tall and deep, the grass is lush, and there are many large wild animals. If the weather is bad, miasma will be produced in the forest, which can make people dizzy and lose their way." Yu Sanlang, who had been silent all the time, pointed out the location and dangers of Piba Mountain to his daughter.
He was afraid that his daughter would want to follow the people on the farm.
"My younger aunt married so far away?" Yu Hongdou looked at her father, so how did you get to know that younger uncle?
"Your uncle-in-law was chased by a pack of wolves for two days and two nights, and then he happened to meet a tiger. He dragged his wounds and killed the tiger. He was almost dying too, and then he happened to meet me." When mentioning this, Yu Sanlang would sigh that his brother-in-law was so lucky.
If he hadn't happened to have a fresh ginseng in his hand that saved his life, let alone marrying and having children, his bones would probably have rotted away.
"Master Duan, how skilled are the people in the village? Will it be dangerous if we rashly go into the mountains?" Yu Hongdou was surprised at her uncle's bravery, but also a little worried.
"Miss, don't worry. The ones we selected are all experts in mountain exploration. I can't say they are good at hunting, but their skills in escaping are first-class." Duan Zhuangtou patted his chest and guaranteed.
"Well, just remember that life is the most important thing. When you get there, if there are soapberries or soapberry trees, no matter what the other party offers, as long as Zhuangzi can offer it, you should accept it first." Yu Hongdou emphasized that saving lives is the most important thing.
Duan Zhuangtou responded with a solemn expression, grateful for the young lady's kindness. He thought to himself that when he returned to the manor, he would spread the word about the good things the young lady had done for them.
Yu Hongdou then went to look at the toys. There were two types of soldier plates.
One is holding a sword, and the other is carved with a bald head, and the left and right arms and legs are divided into two lines. Pulling the left side will produce a left fist, and pulling the right side will produce a right fist. The legs and feet also move accordingly, making it look more lifelike.
Both types of soldier plates were painted, their clothes and trousers were dyed, and the bald man even had a scar from a religious ordination on his head.
"These two are also well made. The soldier plate is called "Inspecting the Troops on the Battlefield" and the little monk plate is called "Shaolin Martial Arts Performance". I asked my brother to find someone to come up with these two names, and then they will be engraved on the plates." Yu Hongdou came up with the idea of mentioning the words on the Tan family.
Although the chessboard and chess pieces were made at Huarong Road, it was still blank. Yu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that she only told her second uncle and Duan Yuan how to play, but forgot to mention the allusion of the Three Kingdoms.
This made her stroke her forehead and sigh, she was too careless!
She only thought that this game was fun and educational, and had low manufacturing costs, but she forgot that the present is different from the future. Whether they have been to school or not, they have all heard the story of the feud between Cao Cao and Guan Yu.
It is still unknown whether there are any strange stories related to the Three Kingdoms. Even if there are, only a few educated people know about it, and I am afraid that this Huarong Road toy cannot be played with.
"How many pieces of this wooden block are made in total?" Yu Hongdou looked at Huarong Road and asked after pondering for a moment.
"Miss, we were not sure about this thing, so we only made thirty sets." Duan Zhuangtou replied carefully.
He felt that Duan Yuan had not handled the matter properly and had not asked clearly how to play it. The people in Zhuangzi had no idea what to do and could only follow the example of the second master of the Yu family.
"That's okay, let's put this aside for now." Yu Hongdou decided to put Huarong Road aside for now and ask someone if there are any books related to the Three Kingdoms.
However, the chassis of Huarong Road reminded her of another similar and simple toy - the nine-square puzzle.
There used to be a plastic base with nine squares on it, and an extra empty square on top of the nine-square grid. The toy was popular among the post-80s generation in their childhood by moving the plates based on the empty square.
This is an educational jigsaw puzzle modified from Huarong Road. Most of the patterns are simple cartoon images, and there are even sets of anime characters. This toy can not only improve children's concentration, consume their vigorous energy, and calm them down, but also increase their collecting habits.
Yu Hongdou once had a complete set of plastic puzzles from Journey to the West, which made her almost the coolest among all the kids at that time.
Thinking of this, Yu Hongdou gained new motivation: "I will redraw a blueprint later, modify this, and then give it back to Duan Yuan to let the people in the farm do it."
Duan Zhuangtou's eyes were lighting up. How could his young lady be so smart!
In general, Yu Hongdou was very satisfied with the finished products. She shared the news that the shop in the city was about to open with Duan Zhuangtou. Not only Duan Zhuangtou, but even Duan Yuan and Qian Yi who came with her were laughing so hard that their eyes were shut.
“After the chrysanthemums are dried, they will be flattened one by one. Ask the people who pick them to pay attention to the shape of the flowers and also be careful not to pluck all the flowers bald, otherwise they will be a one-time deal and have nothing to sell next year.” After deciding to dry the chrysanthemums, Yu Hongdou could not think of anything else for the time being.
However, Yu Sanlang remembered to remind his daughter not to forget the three noblemen in the capital. Their family has not yet given them a return gift. Of course, there was nothing good to give in return before.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot. Mr. Duan, you should pack twelve sets of soap, twelve each of the military review on the battlefield and the Shaolin martial arts performance, and send them to my brother later... wait, add four more sets for each." After being reminded by her father, Yu Hongdou remembered about the return gift.
It was just right that I could take this opportunity to ask that teacher-like Mr. Tan Shiyi if he could help her find some books related to the Three Kingdoms.
If she could find the origin of Huarong Dao, she would make it into a high-end adult toy. If she couldn't find the origin... she would see if she could find someone to write a book to promote it.
Seeing that it was getting late, Duan Zhuangtou did not dare to invite his host to stay for dinner, so he left Duan Yuan and the chickens, ducks and other items sent this time, and went back with the money.
When Yu Hongdou saw the cages of chickens and ducks in the yard, she immediately felt hungry and asked her mother for chicken soup and roasted chestnut chicken.
Yu Sanlang and Xu smiled at their daughter's coquettish look and couldn't help teasing her by saying that it was too late today and they would have to wait until tomorrow to have food.
After their daughter pulled their clothes and acted cute for a long time, they pretended to be soft-hearted and agreed, saying that they would make chicken soup and roast chestnut chicken for her tonight, and also add a dish of spicy chicken, so that she could have three dishes with one chicken.
Yu Hongdou was so greedy that she wanted to crawl into the chicken coop and pick out a fat chicken to satisfy her craving.
