Noon the next day.
Xie Fan drank Bai's tonic and sat on a deck chair in the yard, basking in the sun.
Lu Guanggu worked for a few days and made a wooden crossbow arrow. Although it was a bit big, it was still powerful. "Master, in this way, when we have a blacksmith, we can mass-produce it."
Xie Fan thought, he didn't know what happened to the caravan, whether it was going well or not. Talents like Dong Zhong are rare, it would be nice to have more.
When Dong Zhong makes another purchase, he must make a contract with the merchant, so that he can trade according to the contract in the future.
Lu Guang kept waiting, but when Xie Fan didn't reply, he asked, "Master?"
"Well, let's wait until the blacksmith comes back to discuss this matter! I have to say that you did an excellent job on this recliner!"
"Master, I have designed several traps in the past few days. With two mountains so big, it is inevitable that another wild beast will pop out!"
Xie Fan stared at the sun in the sky. The more dazzling it was, the more he wanted to stare at it. "It's up to you to set the trap! Make some marks to prevent your own people from falling in."
Lu Guang responded and prepared to leave.
Lin Yue held a blanket and walked slowly over, "Master Lu, wait!"
"Young mistress, what are your orders?" Lu Guang stopped and saluted respectfully.
Lin Yue threw the blanket to Xie Fan, stretched out her palm, revealing a golden ring, "Take this ring."
Lu Guang could tell at a glance that this ring was not of the quality in the set. It was very valuable. "Young lady, I want this ring to be useless, so you'd better keep it!"
Xie Fan spread out the blanket and covered himself tightly, "Take it, young lady, if you do this, it means you have a peach blossom!"
Lu Guang's face was red and purple, "Me? What peach blossoms are there?"
Lin Yue gave the ring to the other party and squatted next to Xie Fan, "Master Lu, among those people from Shigang, there is a girl named Xiaohong. You have met several times. I asked for it for you and I agreed!"
"What did you agree to?"
Xie Fan stretched out his hand and punched the other party, "Of course I'm going to be your wife! Stop working on other things and build your house! When everyone comes back, I'll set up some tables for you!"
"I've prepared two of those set meals for you! I've already told the housekeeper to take whatever you need from the warehouse!" Lin Yue added, leaning obediently on Xie Fan's shoulder.
Lu Guang held the ring in his hand, "Master, Master, I won't say anything else! I will build a house in a while!"
Lu Guang left.
"Yue'er, you helped me solve another big problem!"
Lin Yue looked at Xie Fan's side face and blew lightly, "Why did you push me away then?"
"When did I push you away?"
"The day the black blind man appeared!"
"I did that to protect you!"
"Next time, don't push me away!"
Xie Fan looked at the other party's angry look and said dotingly, "If you don't push me away, I'll hold you tight next time!"
At this time, Xie Yao came over angrily with silk thread hanging all over her body.
"Ayao, what's wrong?"
"Why is this loom so difficult to use? I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I have gained nothing!"
Lin Yue took Xie Yao's arm and said, "Let's go, sister-in-law will come with you!"
"You can?"
Xie Fan said faintly, "You need to ask this? Don't you look at whose daughter-in-law it is!"
After the two left, Hui'er carried a pile of dirty clothes and went downstairs, "Master, when will Yu'er come back?"
"What's wrong?" Xie Fan took a look and saw that the other party looked aggrieved.
"Yu'er's not here, I have to wash both of your clothes!" Hui'er said coquettishly, stamping her feet.
Xie Fan curled his lips, "When you were eating meat, why didn't you think of sharing it with others?"
"Can that be the same?"
Xie Fan rolled his eyes at the other person and said angrily, "Send Tongtong to Ah Fu and let him guard the door! This way, you don't have to be so busy every day!"
"Take it! Take it all! It's so annoying!"
Huier cursed and went to wash clothes.
However, Xie Fan's mind suddenly lit up, "Wen Hua! Wen Hua!"
The housekeeper ran all the way from the kitchen, "Master, what's wrong?"
"If you have free time these days, you can get some dogs back. I want the kind that can grow up and be fierce!"
"Master, how many do you want?"
"As many as you have!"
Wen Hua grimaced, "Master, who cares if we bring so many dogs back?"
Xie Fan looked at Hui'er who hadn't gone far yet, and couldn't bear to make any further arrangements, "Get the dog back first, and I'll think about it later!"
Xie Fan thinks that some kennels should be built to facilitate management and allow for rapid reproduction.
He thought of police dogs. Soldiers and bodyguards could each have one.
Mountain patrols and outbound escorts can greatly reduce casualties and increase combat effectiveness.
Just when he was imaginative, Mrs. Hu came back with Magnolia.
Xie Fan was about to get up when he was stopped by the other party, "Er Niang, is Piggy okay?"
"Piggy is fine, but the grapes are not growing well. A few have sprouted, but they just can't grow taller!"
"Er Niang, I forgot to mention that to grow grapes, you need to build some supports. On top of the supports, build a simple shed, and the vines will grow up!"
Mrs. Hu thought thoughtfully, "Yulan, go find some sticks, and let's go to Zhengyang Mountain again!"
Mrs. Dong went downstairs and asked hurriedly, "Where are you going, Madam? Take me with you! I feel sick from being bored in the room all day!"
"Mrs. Dong, if nothing happens, you can go and have a look at the new house!" Xie Fan reminded that Dong Zhong's house has been completed.
"It's all a waste of work, making wedding clothes for others! Let's wait until my wife comes back, then talk about it!"
Mrs. Hu looked at the other party's figure and said, "You are a strong wife, and I am in need of someone to put on airs!"
Xie Fan sat up straight, "Er Niang, this is our guest!"
Mrs. Dong waved her hand, "We women are no worse at work than you men! You rest, we will come back as soon as we go!"
Xie Fan smiled happily, everyone was working hard for tomorrow.
Ah Fu and Yu'er went to Feng County and the shop opened today.
However, he could not go, and Lin Yue was not willing to leave him alone.
He has already sent people to post a notice recruiting shopkeepers at the door of the new shop.
It is more convenient to leave the outside business to outsiders.
People like Ah Fu and Yu'er would be more at ease if they stayed around.
In the shop, there are items made by craftsmen, as well as food made by chefs, and all kinds of things are prepared.
Three days before the opening, the price is halved to attract popularity.
In addition, items such as cloth and porcelain can also be recycled or replaced according to the purchase price.
The Xie family sends people to inspect the shop every three days.
Replenish goods, check revenue, and collect intelligence.
The name of the shop is "Zhengtai", which was named after the two mothers, taking the first words of the two mountains respectively.
Xie Fan thought it was pretty good, so he added the word "chain" after "正太".
Ever since, "shotai chain" officially appeared in this era.
