Seeing that Jiang Chunshi didn't defend himself, Niu Erjiu took it as his acquiescence, bared his teeth and reached out to pat his shoulder, "Come on, I am also nostalgic for old friendships. The most important thing is that I don't want to see others having a bad life. If you really can't do it, you can't do it either." Come back to work at my place."
"This time, more or less, I will also pay you some wages. If I do more work, you can work with me. This is a way for me to take care of our friendship for so many years. What do you think?"
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
This Niu Erhu suddenly asked him to go back to work. Most likely, he found that he could not be fooled into doing hard work more stupidly and honestly than him. And this Niu Erhu was giving money and teaching craftsmanship...
Jiang Chunshi glanced at Niu Er and spoke slowly, "Have you taken on a big job recently?"
How does this kid know?
Niu Er was stunned for a moment, but his face remained calm. He just smiled and said, "I have taken on a big job. It is too busy for one person, so I need someone to help me."
"To put it bluntly, it just so happens that I took on such a big job, so you can take advantage of it. Otherwise, if I don't need help here, how could I need you back?"
Jiang Chunshi's eyebrows raised, "So you came to Qiuji with the intention of peeking at the furniture, but the waiter refused and kicked you out?"
Niu Er was stunned again, his face turned a little pale.
How come this kid even knows this?
He had indeed taken on a big job, and he had indeed come to Qiuji with the intention of peeking at the furniture.
The reason was because he was bragging about how many years he had learned carpentry work in Qiu Ji. The things he made were the same as those of the masters in Qiu Ji, but the prices were much cheaper. So someone came to him and said I have a newly built second-in house, and I want to order all the furniture for my house from Niu Er.
Niu Er went to see that person's house. He was a merchant who was not short of money, and his attitude was very clear. The price could be enough, but the style of the things must be good and enough to fit on the countertop.
The price offered was really good, and Niu Er was naturally very tempted, so he agreed to the business on the spot. However, when he returned to the shop, he was worried again.
He did not learn the carpentry trade at Qiu Ji, but it was because he had done odd jobs in the shop next to Qiu Ji and peeked through the wall. Later, he learned the carpenter's trade from an old carpenter for several years. , which can be regarded as barely obtainable.
In order to attract business, Niu Er has been raising his own value by claiming that he learned carpentry in Qiuji. He also thinks that this can silence those who are bargaining, killing two birds with one stone.
But in fact, he hadn't seen what the furniture made by Qiu Ji looked like for a long time, so naturally he couldn't make it, so he couldn't figure out what the countertop furniture the merchant wanted looked like.
Furniture is not something that can be displayed in public like clothes or food. Instead, it is hidden deep in the home. If you want to see the style of furniture, you either have to go to other people's homes, or you have to look at picture albums like Qiu Ji's.
After thinking about it for two days, Niu Er chose the latter and visited the county seat.
At first, the clerk treated him as a regular customer who came to customize furniture and treated him warmly. However, Niu Er found fault with him in every possible way and looked at one set after another. He even proposed to take the brochure home and let his family take a look. Just to be sure.
Qiuji has been open for so many years, and the guys have seen all kinds of people, and there are not a few people like Niu Er who want to covet Qiuji furniture designs.
The waiter found an excuse and left Niu Er aside and stopped showing him the drawings.
Niu Ertou couldn't get the pattern, and he couldn't remember the appearance, but he couldn't get angry at Qiu Ji, lest he completely blocked the way to peek at the pattern, so he could only scold Qiu Ji angrily in his heart.
Then, he saw Jiang Chunshi, rolled his eyes, and had an idea.
Lure Jiang Chunshi back and help him continue to do hard work. If the furniture is not made well by then, you can blame Jiang Chunshi for the fault.
So Niu Er thought of suppressing him first, and then threw out a sweet date, just waiting for him to catch the sweet date and follow him back.
But now, Jiang Chunshi not only ignored him, but also guessed most of his thoughts.
Niu Er was a little panicked.
He was so panicked that he just waved his hands to defend himself, "What are you talking about? Who am I? Besides, even if I want to see the drawings of Qiu Ji's furniture, do I still need to peek?"
"I look like that kind of person." Jiang Chunshi said solemnly.
Niu Er, "..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Niu Er became angry, "I have no business coming to peek at the drawings, but I..."
"Chun Shi, why are you here?" A waiter saw Jiang Chun Shi at the door and trotted over, "Master Chang is looking for you behind. He said that the lumber has arrived in advance and wants you to follow him to look at it so that we can see you. Let me know."
"I'll go right away." Jiang Chunshi thanked the waiter, took his things, and hurriedly went to Changchun Yong'an.
Niu Er watched Jiang Chunshi go straight into Qiu Ji's backyard. He didn't say the second half of the sentence "Qiu Ji's apprentice" and swallowed it hard.
After being stunned for a long time, he hurriedly stopped the man who called Jiang Chunshi, "The Master Chang you just mentioned, is Master Chang the best carpenter in Qiu Ji?"
"That's natural." The man nodded.
"Then why did Master Chang ask Jiang Chunshi to look at the wood?" Niu Er asked again.
"Jiang Chunshi is our new apprentice, Master Qiu Jichang. Naturally, he has to take him to look at the wood. Is it possible that I have to take you to look at it too?"
The clerk had just heard that Niu Er was sneaky and tried to steal Qiu Ji's furniture designs. Now he also had a bad attitude towards Niu Er and replied angrily.
Did Jiang Chunshi become Qiu Ji's apprentice, or did he learn the carpenter's trade from Chang Yong'an?
Niu Er was stunned again for a long time. After he came to his senses, he stretched out his hand to tug the clerk's sleeve, "I tell you, Jiang Chunshi is the most ungrateful person. When he was learning carpentry skills from others, he always fell out with him. Not a person!"
"You, Mr. Qiu, let such a person become Master Chang's apprentice. It will be a disaster in the future and there will be no peace of mind!"
"If I don't let Jiang Chunshi be my apprentice, why can't I make you my apprentice?" The waiter was too lazy to talk nonsense with Niu Er and pulled back his sleeves, "Hurry up and don't be an eyesore here. Although our Qiu Ji never cares about trivial matters. I care about you, but some people really want to find trouble and steal the designs, so we, Qiu Ji, are not easy to mess with!"
While talking, Qiu Ji's other clerks saw that there seemed to be a dispute here, so they thought of coming over to take a look, and they all rolled up their sleeves in unison.
The men who work in the lumber store usually do lifting work. They are all tall and strong. The arms that are exposed now are almost as big as the thighs of ordinary people!
