In the TV series, Silly Zhu always said that he was the descendant of three generations of royal chefs. Jiang Hua ate the food he cooked and felt that it was just like that. It may have something to do with the lack of raw materials. The taste can only be regarded as average. Nowadays, when there is a lack of oil and water, the heavy oil is heavy. Salt is indeed popular.
Han Jin ate very delicious food and kept asking Jiang Hua to eat more.
Silly Zhu wiped his hands with his apron and walked into the private room casually.
"How's it going, kid? It's delicious. I've never tasted such delicious food."
Jiang Hua nodded and said, "He is indeed a master, his craftsmanship is extraordinary."
Jiang Hua's compliment made Sha Zhu's old face bloom with a chrysanthemum. Why did Jiang Hua say that? Mainly because he felt that Sha Zhu was a bit paranoid after watching TV. If he said that his cooking was average, he would probably be annoyed today.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Hua arrived at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill on time. Han Jin had been sitting in the reception room waiting early. When he saw Jiang Hua coming, he took out a large sack from under the table.
"The things are ready. Master Yi is very attentive and made some small spare parts for you."
Jiang Hua said with joy, "Then I really have to thank Master Yi."
"Hua Zi, tell me honestly, you haven't had any conflicts with anyone else."
Jiang Hua shook his head, and Han Jin warned worriedly: "I can give you something, but you must use it with caution. I tried it. It's like killing someone within fifty meters of this thing for fun. Don't shoot at people."
"Uncle, don't worry. I'll shoot at most a hare, pheasant, or roe deer. I won't mess with any of them."
"That's good. You are always steady and do what you say you will do."
Han Jin took out another thing from under the table and handed it to Jiang Hua: "I captured this when I was fighting on the Peninsula battlefield. I leave it to you for self-defense. Don't use it to start a fight."
It turned out to be a Gurkha combat knife. Jiang Hua thanked Han Jin and returned home with the sack on his back with satisfaction. He opened the sack and found parts all over the place. Han Jin just said he had tried it, which meant he tried the crossbow string.
Use a screwdriver to assemble the crossbow and put the crossbow arrows into the arrow box. Yi Zhonghai made forty crossbow arrows and five arrow boxes. Jiang Hua loaded the arrow box and pulled the bow string to automatically load the bullet.
As soon as the trigger was pressed, the crossbow arrow flew out quickly and was nailed to the door panel, penetrating two inches deep. This power was enough to knock down not only rabbits, but also wild boars if they were careful.
Fold the crossbow arm and use a cover to hide it so that no one can easily find it.
With crossbows, Jiang Hua was not in a hurry to go hunting. As the saying goes, if you don't have diamonds, you won't get porcelain work. Jiang Hua was sure that he didn't have shooting skills, so he had to practice.
Of course, Jiang Hua was reluctant to practice with those forty iron arrows. Good steel should be used on the blade.
At that time, the country focused on supporting equipment. A large factory might have many supporting parts factories, so there were many woodware factories in Sijiucheng.
After finding a carpentry factory, Jiang Hua spent a dollar and found a master carpenter.
"Master, look at how much it costs to get me two hundred wooden arrows like this."
The carpenter looked around, measured it with a ruler, and said disdainfully: "The scraps are enough to make this thing. Give me one dollar, and I will get you three hundred arrows in three days."
"Is there any harder wood? I hope it won't break easily when shot."
The master still said disdainfully: "It's easy. We have ironwood, huanghuali, and red sandalwood, all of which are good woods."
Jiang Hua's eyes lit up. He didn't know whether the iron wood was valuable or not, but huanghuali and red sandalwood would definitely be good things with a price but no market in the future.
"Master, do you have good wood for sale?"
"Sell it, what do you want to hit?"
Jiang Hua waved his hands and said: "If you don't buy anything, just buy some good wood."
The master carpenter pointed at Jiang Hua and said with a smile: "You thief, you think good wood is hard to find, so prepare it first. It will be useful for making furniture in the future, right?"
This master is really clever and smart, but how could he know that these pieces of wood will be sold at sky-high prices in the future?
Jiang Hua nodded quickly and said, "Is that what you mean? Good things are hard to find. I'm afraid that if you miss it, it will be hard to find in the future."
The carpenter looked around and said in a low voice: "This is easy to say. The leader of our revolutionary committee doesn't know how to do it. If you are willing to spend money and spend some sense, you can buy any kind of wood. If you are here, you can buy any wood." I mean, I’ll give you a good price.”
"clear."
Jiang Hua spent fifty yuan to give the head of the Revolutionary Committee some advice, and the head of the Revolutionary Committee opened an order and asked Jiang Hua to choose the wood he wanted.
Then he gave the master some advice. The carpenter took Jiang Hua into the warehouse and introduced Jiang Hua to Jiang Hua in detail.
"When it comes to our warehouse, we can say that there are not too many good things, but there are not too many good things. Look, there are five or six directions of golden nan, as well as five directions of red sandalwood, serious small-leaf sandalwood, and less huanghuali. There are only four directions. , and the gloomy wood of Jinsunnan, it’s just a coincidence that there are all directions.”
Jiang Hua waved his hand and said grandly: "I want everything you said."
The master carpenter plucked his fingers, calculated and said, "Boy, this is not cheap. Even if I give you a good price, it will still cost you five hundred yuan."
Jiang Hua said nonchalantly: "Five hundred is five hundred. Once the matter is settled, I will give you two more bottles of Red Star Erguotou."
"Beautiful, let's go and place an order and pay the money."
Jiang Hua is very satisfied. The more than 500 yuan spent now will cost over 100 million yuan in a few decades. This is equivalent to achieving a small goal 40 years in advance.
Jiang Hua hired a dozen bosses to work for two full days before moving all the wood. Don't look at it as wood, it was hardwood. Each side weighed at least a ton. The dozen bosses were also very tired, but Jiang Hua did not treat them badly and paid them generously.
Zhong Yuemin and the others usually have some empty houses as their bases, and they hang out there when they have nothing to do, playing cards and so on. Jiang Hua chose one of them as the address to receive the wood.
When Mr. Ban'er finished unloading all the wood, Jiang Hua quietly turned around and put the wood back into the space without anyone noticing, which was about half the size of a container.
The savings have shrunk a lot, but Jiang Hua doesn't feel bad, not to mention that he has ways to make money. It would be a waste of money to leave this space unused.
Zhong Yuemin didn't go home for another two or three days, and he didn't know who he was wandering off with. This is a common phenomenon among people in big courtyards nowadays. Many parents have stopped, and their children are herding sheep, in small and small groups. I'm messing around, but thanks to years of good education, I have a bottom line when doing things, and few people will do anything wrong.
I retrieved the wooden arrows from the carpenter master. This time the master made a lot of money. When I was happy, I made some more for Jiang Hua, a total of five hundred. Anyway, he didn't need to spend any money on the leftovers, just some labor.
