"How can a house be built like this?" the old craftsman asked.
"Can the smoke really heat up the ground when it passes under my feet?"
"Yes!" Ye Luoxin said, "But when designing the flue, you must pay attention to ventilation and not allow smoke to pour back."
"What method is that?"
"I don't understand this!" Ye Luoxin smiled a little slyly.
"You are professionals, it is up to you to study this kind of thing."
Several bricklayers looked at each other: We have to think about co-authorship ourselves!
But they were experienced after all. After Ye Luoxin finished speaking, several people studied for three days and came up with a plan.
After the house was built, there was really no thick smoke pouring back when a fire was lit on the south-facing stove.
The ground that had been left to dry for a few days was already dry, and it was covered with the thinnest bluestone slab I bought.
After burning firewood for a while, the house became really warm. Several bricklayers entered the house with uncontrollable joy on their faces.
“Huiru people really know how to find a way, even in the coldest winter, your hands will not feel cold when you enter the house.
If anyone can work in this handicraft workshop, it will be a blessing! "
"This thing is great. I will get one when I get home. My mother-in-law is most afraid of the cold. If my house can also install this kind of floor heating, then she will be able to go to the ground during the cold winter!"
said an old craftsman.
"Anyone who builds a new house in the future can do this!"
"It can also be made into a hot bed!" Ye Luoxin said with a smile.
"Use a kang instead of a bed. If you sleep on it in winter, your whole body will be warm."
"There must be many people who like it!"
"Uncle Liu, go to my house tomorrow and study a hot kang for me!"
"I want too!"
"And I!"
"Go to the back and wait in line!"
Everyone was laughing and discussing, and they were full of praise for the Xiao family's new workshop.
As soon as this news came out, the person who was selected became even happier.
They came to the workshop early every day to learn how to work, and Chunhua and Dahua also taught each other everything they knew.
For a time, Xiao's workshop became the most popular place in the village.
The work in the workshop was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Ye Luoxin found the prodigal Sui Siyuan again.
This down-and-out young master had recently lost a bet and was about to sell off his ancestral property. Ye Luoxin negotiated with him to buy another shop.
"This time it will be bigger, with two floors, and the location will be livelier!" Ye Luoxin said.
"You want such a good one? Then the only one is the shop on Changning Street." Sui Siyuan thought for a while and said.
"However, I won't sell you cheaply this time!"
Ye Luoxin smiled.
"You don't have to sell it cheaply, just follow the market price."
Sui Siyuan looked at Ye Luoxin's attire, and seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked with some disbelief: "When you bought my shop last time, you didn't seem to have much money. It's only been a few months, and you have so much money?" Did you use the money to buy another shop?"
Ye Luoxin didn't expect Sui Siyuan to ask this.
She looked at him and said: "After I bought your shop, I have been doing a good job. Now the business of the shop is quite prosperous and I have saved some money."
Sui Siyuan seemed to be touched by something.
The other party is making money and buying a shop.
And he himself has been gambling and selling shops.
"Why can you make so much money?" Sui Siyuan asked.
"Be diligent and use some brains." Ye Luoxin said, "With some foundation in hand, it will naturally be easier than ordinary people to make money."
This statement is correct.
Sui Siyuan had to nod.
"After talking to you so much today, should the new shop be cheaper for me?" Ye Luoxin suddenly suggested.
"Hey, you are getting rich now, and I am getting worse and worse. Why should I give you a cheaper price?" Sui Siyuan was a little annoyed.
"Because the truths I tell you, others won't tell you!" Ye Luoxin said boldly.
"You're talking nonsense. There are obviously many people telling me this!"
"But you may not be able to listen!"
Sui Siyuan:......
It seems to make some sense.
After looking at the house, Ye Luoxin was very satisfied with the shop.
The shop has two floors, upper and lower, each with an area of about 100 square meters.
As a handicraft store, this size is completely sufficient.
"How much does this shop cost?"
Sui Siyuan stretched out a finger.
"One thousand taels!"
"One thousand taels? Isn't it a bit expensive?" Ye Luoxin asked,
"What? One thousand taels do you still think it's expensive? This is already a cheap price I gave you because of what you just said!"
Sui Siyuan was a little angry.
Selling the main house is already a bit annoying, but it is even more annoying to see the people who bought their own properties prospering.
Nowadays, people who are prosperous still come to bargain with themselves. This is the most annoying thing.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s cheap!”
Ye Luoxin said openly: "You just said there is a house opposite the shop, why not sell it to me together!"
Sui Siyuan didn't expect Ye Luoxin to have such a big appetite.
He was about to refuse, but he heard Ye Luoxin say: "You are going to sell it in the future anyway, why not sell it all to me. If you want to come back and see me in the future, I am easier to negotiate with."
Sui Siyuan:......
In the end, Ye Luoxin gave an exciting price.
Sui Siyuan finally agreed.
After finding a house, preparations for the craft store began.
Xu Zishang is still busy with braised rabbits.
Ye Luoxin left matters here to Xu Cai.
Xu Cai originally looked down on this kind of gadget that only girls like.
I always feel that this kind of business cannot make a lot of money.
But what happened last time made him see the potential of the handicraft business.
As long as it can be done well, this business will definitely make more money than Braised Rabbit.
Xiao Mu is mainly responsible for the decoration of the store.
According to Ye Luoxin's idea, this shop should have a bright and atmospheric style.
Reduce the decoration of mahogany and other woods in the house.
Instead, there are many bronze mirrors and brick walls inlaid with white shells.
This style can be said to be unique in Qinghe County.
But when he actually did it, even Xiao Mu felt his eyes light up.
Xu Cai is responsible for delivering invitations to all the ladies from wealthy families in Qinghe County.
What surprised him was that Liu Xiyue was also very concerned about this matter.
On this day, Ye Luoxin asked Xu Cai to go to Liu Xiyue to pick up the invitation she had written.
Xu Cai finally had the opportunity to talk to Miss Liu alone.
