Chapter 37 Custom Sofa

Not long after Wanghai Building successfully opened, Chen Chen settled the accounts.Satisfied to find that Wanghailou is really making money, in just a few days, I made more than 1000 taels of silver!Even though the cost of renovating Wanghai Building was a bit high at the beginning, but at this rate of making money, it will be back in a month.What's more, seafood doesn't cost money, and the one at home only pays the original boat fee and the current fishermen's wages!Now sometimes they can still buy some scarce things. The Qi family either sells them or keeps them for themselves, and they also get some money.In short, the fleet has also started to make a profit.When Chen Chen showed the results of the liquidation to Butler Qiao, Butler Qiao nodded in satisfaction, patted Chen Chen on the shoulder for the first time, and said "Come on!" After speaking, he just watched Butler Qiao leave with wide eyes.

After being busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen Chen asked Qi Qiao to go home to rest, and he started to work on the silk and satin shop and the house.Although there is still a lot of work, it is much easier than before.During the period, Silk and Satin House launched a new style for autumn——Chen Chen modified the women's ancient costumes according to the TV series, and the men's ancient costumes were neutralized and made for Qi Qiao alone.Matching unique jewelry is also a big selling point this fall.It can be said that this year's Qi family has changed from the silence of previous years and shined brilliantly, but I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse.

On this day, after sending away another batch of clothes samples, Chen Chen wanted to go to the beach to have a look, but when he came to the shed, he found that his modified carriage was gone.

"Master." The boy guarding the carport saw Chen Chen coming, so he hurried over to salute.

"Where is the second carriage I modified?"

"That one..." The boy swallowed, and answered with some difficulty, his head lowered deeply, "That one was driven away by Butler Qiao."

"Butler Joe?"

"Yes... Butler Qiao also said...he kept the carriage, and asked you...you to change another one." After finishing speaking, the boy hurriedly stepped back.

Chen Chen was choked, and it took him a long time to exhale.

"Butler Qiao... I see, you can go down."

The boy turned around and left.

"Wait a minute. Call the coachman and let him go out with me."

The boy turned around and saluted, "Okay, sir."

After a while, the coachman came over, and Chen Chen asked him to drive a carriage to go out with him.The coachman glanced at the shed, and sure enough, he saw that the two carriages were not there. Then he clearly drove the carriage, followed Chen Chen, and came to the carpenter's house familiarly.

The carpenter who opened the door saw that it was Chen Chen, and then saw the carriage behind, the carpenter who was too familiar with this set of equipment immediately closed the door.

Facing the closed door, Chen Chen touched his nose resentfully, and stood helplessly at the door.

"Carpenter, open the door, we are only here to modify the carriage!"

As a matter of course, there was no answer, but there was a tinkling sound from inside.

Chen Chen took a step back silently—maybe the carpenter finally couldn't take it anymore and was going to kill him!

Just when Chen Chen was thinking wildly and wildly, the wooden door that was closed not long ago was forcefully opened again.The carpenter carried the burden on his back, gasped heavily, and stared at Chen Chen with wide-eyed eyes.

"Let's go! I'll go with you!"

Chen Chen opened his mouth with difficulty, wanting to say that we were not kidnapped.But under the carpenter's vicious eyes, he was speechless.

"I will not allow you to take my child away again! This time I will go with you!"

Sensing strange sights and whispers around him, Chen Chen said Alexander!Inadvertently, he saw that some masters had picked up wooden sticks and moved closer to this side, his little heart trembled a little.

"I just want you to change the carriage, nothing else!" The nervous Chen Chen quickly explained.He didn't want to explain it here just because of such a trivial matter.

"Hmph! Those carriages are my children! You took them away from me by force, how do you let me live!"

"...Can you change a few more? There will be more children soon!"

"Hmph! If it wasn't for this, I could go with you!"

"……what."

"So that's how it is! Really, I thought it was such a big deal!" The people who gathered here thought about it and left.The fathers of those plagiarists also put down the things in their hands, cut up, and left.

"Let's go! Don't waste time!" The impatient carpenter strode past Chen Chen, got into the carriage directly, and directed the driver to leave quickly.Hurry up and finish typing, he will come back for dinner!

Chen Chen followed in a daze and got into the carriage, and it took him a while to regain his senses.

"You... come with me?"

The carpenter ignored him.

"Is it okay not to call at your house? Will there be no shortage of things?"

The carpenter turned his head and glared at him, "Who do you think I am? I am the best carpenter in this city! Which big family doesn't use my stuff!"

Pulling the burden behind him, he patted, "Everything is here! Let me tell you, if it wasn't for the carriage, you think I would go with you? I never beat something at my own home!"

"Ah, yes! Then... since you have come out to fight, how about... help me with other things!"

"Others?" The carpenter's eyes flickered.

After pondering for a while, the carpenter asked Chen Chen angrily with anticipation but still trying his best to pretend not to see him: "You...what else are you playing?"

"It's sofas, tables and chairs, and..."

Holding back his laughter, Chen Chen told the carpenter some modern society things he wanted.Following his description, the carpenter's eyes became brighter and brighter. In the end, no matter whether he pretended to be indifferent or reserved, he completely forgot about it, and excitedly discussed the structure and use of these things with Chen Chen.

Along the way, the two talked more and more excitedly.Especially the carpenter, who took out the plane in the car and looked at Chen Chen with bright eyes.

"Why don't I start doing it now! This will make it faster!" As he said, the plane was pressed against the wall of the car.

"Wait!" Chen Chen quickly grabbed the carpenter and pulled his hand off, "The carriage is still moving! Be careful! Besides, those things are not in a hurry."

The carpenter was unhappy, and stared at Chen Chen, "Why don't you believe my skills! Let me tell you, let alone the carriage, even the boat floating in the river, I can fix it for you! "

"Yes... I believe in your skills! But we are really not in a hurry, there are still many details left! Can you put things away first?"

The carpenter had no choice but to put away the plane mutteringly, and continued to listen to Chen Chen's instructions on the bookshelves hanging on the wall.The coachman who was driving the carriage outside overheard this, and secretly broke out in a cold sweat.

Dad!I'm driving a carriage!If you really want to transform it in the car...

"Drive!" The whip was drawn into the air, and with a loud "snap", the horse pulling the cart began to trot.

——Go back quickly!The road is too dangerous!

"Coachman, don't go back to Qi's house, go to the newly built other courtyard!" Chen Chen who recovered after hearing the sound of the horsewhip hurriedly confessed, "...I got it." It's not close to here! ~~o(>_<)o~~ While the coachman was biting his handkerchief in his heart, the three arrived at Chen Chen's new home safely.

After getting off the car, looking at the elegant yard like a small Jiangnan building in front of him, the carpenter secretly marveled—this uncle of the Qi family is really capable!He has only seen such a beautiful and unique house in the south, but it really doesn't exist in the north!

The house that is still under construction is not very big - it is compared to those famous families, but it is still much larger than ordinary big families.The outer wall of the house is not the bright red popular in the north, but a lighter blue-gray; the wall is made of black tile ridges, and the overall structure is more like the buildings in the south, but it is more atmospheric than those misty small buildings.

After entering the house and looking closely, the carpenter was stunned.

The yard is very large and open, with many flowers, plants and trees, and corridors on both sides; in the middle is a built-in pool with statues in it. It feels strange, and he has never seen it before, but his intuition would be a good thing.There are houses and courtyard walls in the distance, which are not real, but they are also exquisite and atmospheric buildings.

"Okay, have you finished reading? It's time for us to work." Chen Chen reminded the carpenter with a smile.

The carpenter came back to his senses, and took a complicated look at Chen Chen.

"...you are really rich."

Chen Chen froze, and rubbed his nose resentfully.In order to build this house, he signed an IOU with Butler Qiao.If he didn't make double the money he paid for building the house later, he'd sell him—well, he knew that was impossible!But that's what it says on the receipt!God knows how dispirited he was after signing the contract!

"Let's go! Go to the side garden."

Taking the carpenter and the driver who was still foolishly leading the carriage to a side yard, Chen Chen asked a boy who supervised the work here to bring the materials to be used and the drawings he put in the main room.

"From now on, carpenter, you can fight here! If you want anything, just ask the boy just now to buy it. Coachman, you stay and help the carpenter."

"Ah...ah, yes." The coachman who hadn't recovered from his senses replied foolishly.

"En. Carpenter, look, what's missing?"

The carpenter simply slipped through the side yard, and found that even such a place for outsiders to live in is exquisite.

"This place is very good. If there is anything lacking, I will let the boy do it, so you don't have to worry about it! Also, don't call me a carpenter, I have a name and a surname!"

"Uh... so what's your last name?"

"The surname is Qiu, and the word for wood is Qiu Mu."

"Then when will Qiu Mu..."

"Call me Carpenter Qiu!"

That's not a carpenter - Chen Chen moaned in his heart.

"When will Carpenter Qiu start working? And how about the wages?"

"Let's start working now! The wages! Just follow the previous one. As for the sofa and so on...let's talk about it after typing it out!"

"Okay! Then I will trouble you!"

Carpenter Qiu waved his hand impatiently.Brushing off the burden behind him, he took out all the tools inside.He picked up the guy and rushed to the carriage.

Chen Chen silently took a step back again, waiting for the drawing to arrive.

Soon, the boy brought all the wood and other things to be used.Passed the blueprint to Chen Chen, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with him, the boy went back to oversee the work.

Chen Chen looked through the blueprints in his hand, and seeing that they were indeed drawn by himself, and there were not too many, he handed them all over to Carpenter Qiu.Carpenter Qiu dropped the work in hand, took the blueprints with bright eyes, and flipped through them one by one.

In fact, Chen Chen really wanted to remind Carpenter Qiu: his mouth is almost drooling!Pay attention to the image!But seeing his fanatical expression, Chen Chen wisely shut his mouth.

After Carpenter Qiu put it in his arms after reading it, Chen Chen explained some other things, and then left.

Since then, Carpenter Qiu has devoted himself to remodeling the carriage and making sofas.At first he went home to spend the night, but within a few days he moved into the side yard of Chen Chenxin's house, and he didn't go home at night or during the day.Even eating, drinking, and sleeping are directly solved here.

Carpenter Qiu's husband couldn't take it anymore, and rushed into Chen Chen's new house with a rolling pin.At that time, Chen Chen was discussing with Carpenter Qiu about making chaise longue chairs and rocking chairs.Facing such a menacing brother, Chen Chen, Qiu Carpenter, and the driver who helped him all trembled a little, and all took a step back.

Finally, under the staring gaze of his husband, Carpenter Qiu obediently went out, and was dragged by his ears to a corner to listen to the training.The remaining Chen Chen and the coachman secretly breathed out.Chen Chen was still nervous at the time, it was his family's auntie and virtuous!

I don't know how to tell that brother, anyway, Carpenter Qiu managed to appease his husband, and made him ask to stay with his eyes shining like him.

When that brother looked at Chen Chen with green eyes and said that he was going to stay and help sew the sofa, Chen Chen endured it for a long time before he let the corners of his mouth dance—it was so twitching up!

In the end, both Carpenter Qiu and his wife lived together.The sofa, which was still in the state of groping, was made with the help of this dexterous brother.There are also pillows, plush dolls and so on. This dexterous and powerful brother actually made them by himself based on Chen Chen's description.

When Chen Chen saw the finished product, he was so surprised that he almost asked this guy: Did you wear it too!

——Of course, he was sensible and didn't ask.It's just that in the next few days, he looked at this brother with a tangled look in his eyes.After being stared countless times by Qiu Carpenter, he finally restrained himself.

After Chen Chen sincerely stated that he just admired his husband's craftsmanship and didn't have any wrong thoughts, Carpenter Qiu generously let him go.

After such a chaotic and busy month, Chen Chen's new home was finally completed.Having picked an auspicious day, Chen Chen and Qi Qiao are about to move to a new house!
