Chapter 111 The Movable Stove
111
As soon as Lin Wei and the others left, Bo Beibei went to the new house to find craftsmen.

These craftsmen will go home to celebrate the New Year on the [-]th of the Lunar New Year, and will not return to continue working until the fifth day of the first month of next year.

"Miss Beibei, what do you want from me?" The man in his forties who was called aside by Bo Beibei asked respectfully.

This man is the leader of these craftsmen. Ever since he knew that Bo Beibei got the house structure drawing, he has been very impressed by Bo Beibei. A girl who is only ten years old has such a pair of discerning eyes. Zhang Tutu is a baby, but it's a pity that he was born with the wrong gender. If it were a boy, he would definitely take him as his apprentice.

In this dynasty, artisans were also very popular, so the leader of the artisans never thought about whether others would worship him as a teacher.

Bo Beibei didn't know the wishful thinking of the craftsman in front of him, and smiled and took out a blueprint from his arms and handed it over: "Uncle, I wonder if you can help me build this kind of stove?"

When the craftsman saw that Bo Beibei took out another blueprint, he was overjoyed. He thought it was another drawing of a house, and took it with a smile on his face.

Unexpectedly, after taking a look, the head craftsman was stunned, glanced at the blueprint in his hand and raised his head to ask: "Miss Beibei, what is the purpose of you giving me the blueprint of the stove?"

Whoever builds a house without a stove, the head craftsman doesn't quite understand what Bai Beibei means.

"Uncle, take a closer look." Bai Beibei signaled.

Hearing this, the head craftsman looked at Bo Beibei suspiciously, and then looked at the blueprint in his hand again, but this time he looked more carefully, but it still looked like a stove.

After a while, he raised his head and asked again: "Miss Beibei, why is there no smoke window on this stove?"

"Uncle, this is a movable stove, so there is no need for a chimney." Seeing that he still didn't see the way, Bai Beibei couldn't help but said directly.

"Can the stove be moved?" The head craftsman looked at Bai Beibei in astonishment, then lowered his head again.

Hearing what Bo Beibei said, this time he didn't dare to take it lightly, and seriously pondered over the blueprint in his hand.

After a long while, the leader of the craftsman once again looked at Bo Beibei with admiration in his eyes, and even his voice trembled with excitement: "Miss Beibei, who made this blueprint?"

The shape of the stove on this drawing is the same as that of ordinary people's homes, but it is much smaller and there is no chimney, so he didn't see the clue just now. He is sure that this drawing is the same as that of last time. The construction drawing of the house was made by the same person.

"A friend in my county found it for me." Bai Beibei said in a perfunctory tone.

"Do you recognize the person who drew this blueprint?" The leader of the craftsman said with urgency in his eyes.

"I don't know." Bo Beibei replied very simply.

Hearing this, the head craftsman looked disappointed.

"Uncle, do you think this kind of stove can be built?" Judging by his expression, Bai Beibei already knew the answer, but he still asked politely.

"It can be built, it can be built, when do you want it?" The head craftsman nodded straightly. Although he was disappointed that he couldn't see the person who drew the picture, he was lucky to see the blueprint.

Bo Beibei frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "Uncle, how much does it cost to build such a stove, including labor and materials?"

The head craftsman did some calculations and said, "This stove is small and doesn't need a chimney. It can be built by one person in a day. The cost of labor and materials is about 150 renminbi."

Bo Beibei pondered for a while, and said, "Uncle, if I want two hundred of these stoves, how long will it take you to build them for me?"

"Miss Beibei, what do you want so many stoves for?" After asking, the leader of the craftsman seemed to have guessed what Bo Beibei's plan was, and asked tentatively, "Could it be that Miss Beibei wants to sell stoves?"

This kind of stove comes out, and it will definitely be sought after by the cooks of rich families, because rich people often hold banquets and entertain guests. This kind of stove does not occupy a lot of space, and can be moved at any time. It can be put away when not in use, which is very convenient. Be applicable.

Bo Beibei hooked her lips and smiled: "I have this plan."

The cost of processing and materials for such a stove is only about 150 renminbi, and the cost of doing two hundred is a few tens of taels of silver. She wants to take a chance and see if she can take the opportunity to make a fortune.

"Miss Beibei, it's almost Chinese New Year now. I'm afraid I won't be able to build it this year if you want so many stoves." The craftsman leader paused, and then said: "If Miss Beibei is willing to wait, I will let you work as soon as the work starts next year." If people build this hearth, there should be two hundred such hearths built around the Lantern Festival.”

There are many craftsmen under this craftsman leader, and it is not a problem to build two hundred of these stoves in about half a month.

"I can wait." Bo Beibei smiled.

If others can't do it, what can she do if she doesn't wait?

"Uncle," Bai Beibei thought for a while, and then told the craftsman leader: "Uncle, I hope you can help me keep this matter a secret."

"Of course, there are rules and regulations. Without the consent of the head of the household, we will not disclose the information of the head of the household." The head craftsman assured.

Some heads of households will build secret passages, secret rooms and other confidential things at home. They are in this industry. If they don’t even have this professional ethics, they will get out of this industry a long time ago.

It was precisely because Bo Beibei knew that the people of this dynasty valued their promises and kept their promises that they were not on guard against him. Seeing that he promised without hesitation, Bo Beibei didn't say anything else.

Seeing that Bai Beibei was about to take back the blueprint and leave, the head craftsman hurriedly stopped her: "Miss Beibei, after finishing the stove, can you lend me this blueprint for a few days?"

He had to ponder over the blueprint carefully to see if he could get any inspiration from it and build something new.

"When uncle helps me build the stove, I will give you the blueprint." Bo Beibei said generously.

"Then I'll thank Miss Beibei first." The head craftsman said overjoyed.

Bo Beibei smiled, turned and went back.

Bai Meisha's miscarriage would take a small moon, and Yun stayed by her daughter's bed every step of the way. Even the New Year's goods were bought by her two sons in the town.

Yun's makes a lot of delicious food for her daughter every day, and even went to Feng's to ask for advice. Because Meisha decided to reconcile, and received the support and meticulous care of her family, she soon recovered from the shadow of losing her child. out.

On the twenty-fourth day of the Chinese New Year, Zhang Jufu personally delivered two fish. The fish this time were larger than the ones he brought when he visited Baidinghai last time, and they were still fresh.

Yun didn't let Zhang Jufu in, and stood at the gate, looking at him coldly, and said with a strange voice, "Hmph, we, Meisha, don't dare to eat your fish, who knows if you have put medicine in the belly of the fish!"

Now that they are about to reconcile and leave, the Yun family no longer has to suppress his anger towards the Zhang family.
