The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 116 New Government Order

Although Han Qianluo felt that it was not worth the money, but when he thought of such a real person being bargained here like a chicken, duck, goose and rabbit, he felt a little unbearable, so he decided to buy it.

"I don't have any money with me, follow me to the shop to get it." Han Qianluo said, and then took the two of them to the shop to get money.

When he returned to the shop, Tao Shi saw the three of them coming back, and said in surprise, "Sister Han, what's going on?"

"I bought a person." As he said that, he opened his hand and took out twelve coins and handed them to the middle-aged man, "Count and see."

The middle-aged man counted the money carefully with a look of money fanatics, and it took a long time before he finally finished counting, and then said with a happy face: "The money is right, the girl is so refreshing, this is a contract of prostitution." He took out a bamboo slip and handed it to her.

Han Qianluo finally looked at the bamboo slips, and it was indeed a contract of selling herself, but she turned to the boy and asked, "What's your name?"

"In the case of Miss Hui, my slave's name is Xu Gui." The young man replied respectfully.

Han Qianluo looked at the name on it, made sure there was nothing wrong, and then let the middle-aged man leave.After the middle-aged man left, she sat down on the stool, turned her head and said to Tao Shi, "Sister Tao, go back."

"Then I'll go back." After speaking, Dow left.

Han Qianluo rested for a while, only to find that Xu Gui was still standing on the sidelines, not even changing his movements. It was obvious that he hadn't moved for such a long time. She was not used to standing next to her while she was sitting. People, this time made her very uncomfortable, so she said, "Don't stand there, sit on a stool."

"Little slave is just a slave, not qualified to sit." Xu Gui said respectfully with his head lowered slightly.

Han Qianluo stroked her forehead. She was still afraid of meeting this type of person, because this kind of person is really stubborn and won't listen to other people's decisions, but she still said: "I I'm not used to people standing next to me, so go and sit over there."

Xu Gui paused for a moment, then took a few steps back, but he didn't follow her advice to sit on the stool over there, but picked up the rag and began to wipe the table and stool.When Han Qianluo found out, he could only stroke his forehead and sigh helplessly, but he didn't say anything and let him go.

It was already noon at this time, and it was time to eat lunch, because this place is not convenient for cooking, so Han Qianluo always brought baked pancakes, but it was only for her alone, but there was one more Man, this pie is obviously not enough.

Han Qianluo sat on the stool thinking about what to do, whether to go to the restaurant to bring some food back, or to buy some other food, but after thinking about it, he finally decided to go to the restaurant to bring some food back.

But she can't leave the shop herself, she is still worried about this young man, after all, there is still a lot of money in the shop, so she just took out a few tens of pennies to the young man: "You go to the nearby restaurant to buy food and come back. You can just ask for a side dish and a soup.”

"Yes, Miss." The boy took the copper coin and left.

Not long after, the young Xu Gui came back, followed by a shop waiter carrying a food box, and the shop waiter brought out the food in the food box: "Girl, I will collect the bowls and chopsticks later." After speaking, the shop waiter left .

"Come and eat." Han Qianluo greeted habitually, and then started to eat on his own. After taking a bite of the food, he found that Xu Gui hadn't come to eat. He thought he didn't hear, so he said it again : "Come and eat quickly, or there will be another guest coming over in a while."

"Xiao Nu is not qualified to eat with Miss." Xu Gui said.

Han Qianluo frowned. She had never seen such a person before. It was too difficult to deal with. She put the chopsticks on the table with a snap and said seriously, "Since you call me Miss, why don't you call me Miss?" You should have listened to me."

Xu Gui paused, then still respectfully said: "Yes, miss." After speaking, he sat down on the stool respectfully, and then began to eat carefully.

Seeing that he started to eat, Han Qianluo was relieved and continued to eat, not paying too much attention to the young man, but looked up at him halfway through the meal, and found that Xu Gui hadn't eaten, it was just a symbolic I ate a little.

Han Qianluo was really helpless, such a young man only ate half a bowl of rice, how could he be full, but judging by his appearance, it seemed that it was difficult to eat him anymore.Finally, Han Qianluo remembered the pancakes he had brought, so he took out the pancakes and handed them to him, saying, "Since you don't want to eat it, it's okay to eat this."

Xu Gui paused for a moment, then took the pancakes, and stood aside, gobbling them up, obviously very hungry.The two quickly finished their lunch, then packed up the bowls and chopsticks, and waited for the shop waiter to come and pick them up.

The business in the shop in the afternoon is definitely not as good as in the morning, and there are even fewer people around noon, and Han Qianluo has nothing else to do, so he took out a piece of cheapest paper, and started drawing, of course the drawing was not perfect. It is not for appreciation of landscape paintings, but mechanical design drawings.

For more than a year, Han Qianluo would think about designing machines for farming, sowing and harvesting when she was free. In fact, the most difficult thing for her was the issue of energy, so she was stuck on this point and made no progress.

Han Qianluo was dissatisfied with the drawing, and then continued, but fortunately she did not draw with a brush, but with ink and charcoal, otherwise I don't know how much paper would be wasted.

I don't know how long it took, Han Qianluo suddenly heard the young man say: "Master, do you want to buy some ink or paper?" After hearing this, she came back to her senses. It turned out that a guest had come in, so she quickly put down her hands. The thing in Li walked over and said hello.

"Miss Han, is this the guy you hired?" The young man who came in asked with a smile, obviously familiar with Han Qianluo.

"That's right, what does Mr. Ma plan to buy this time?" Han Qianluo asked enthusiastically.

Mr. Ma walked up to the counter, pointed to the most expensive kind of paper and said, "Give me two hundred sheets of this kind of paper," then pointed to the other kinds of paper and said, "Each of these kinds of paper needs five hundred sheets." .”

Han Qianluo was about to start counting habitually, but the boy hurried over and said, "Miss, let me do it."

"Row."

The boy was counting papers aside, while Han Qianluo stood there chatting with Mr. Ma, casually saying, "I haven't seen Mr. Ma come shopping for a long time."

"A few days ago, the imperial court issued an imperial edict and issued a decree. I have been busy with this matter these days." Mr. Ma said.

Han Qianluo was a little puzzled, so he asked, "What government order?"

"What is the invention patent protection law, Miss Han, don't you know?" Mr. Ma said in surprise.

But now Han Qianluo is more surprised than she is. How could there be such a policy? It's impossible, but then he guessed a little bit, maybe it was Liu Linchu who facilitated it, and suddenly felt warm in his heart: "Stay in the shop every day. , and there is no time to pass, Mr. Ma, please tell me."

"Actually, Miss Han, you can also apply for a patent. Many businessmen have applied for it, but not many have passed it." Mr. Ma said, and then began to talk about the newly issued decree.

Han Qianluo listened carefully. It was roughly the same as her previous life, but it was not exactly the same, and there were some differences, but basically it was to conform to this era. After listening to it, she felt very anxious and decided to go there in two days. Apply.

After the sound of drums in the afternoon, Han Qianluo closed the shop, and then took Xu Gui back to the familiar places. Many people he knew greeted him one after another, and at the same time looked curiously at the poorly dressed boy.

Han Qianluo finally returned home before dark, and as soon as he opened the door, he heard Sanwei's happy voice: "Brother, Sanjie is back, can we eat?"

"Take out the food." Han Qingquan's voice came from the kitchen.

Han Qianluo took Xu Gui to the yard, because she walked in front, so she didn't see Xu Gui's surprised expression, but she saw Sanwei's surprised expression: "Sister San, who is he?"

"Xu Gui." Han Qianluo said, then took a basin of water to wash his hands, and at the same time asked the boy to wash his hands.

After washing his hands, he began to eat. Xu Gui was still unwilling to sit down and eat with them. Han Qianluo didn't try to persuade him. She had already failed at noon, so she didn't try to persuade the young man. She turned to look at Liu Linchu, and put this The task was given to him.

Liu Linchu easily asked the boy to sit down and eat together.While eating, Han Qianluo suddenly realized a problem. The space in his home is a little narrow, and he can barely live there now, but after Han Qingquan gets married, the family will not be enough to live in. It seems that a new house needs to be built. .

"Brother, I want to renovate the house at home." Han Qianluo said, in fact, she had thought about repairing it before, but she has been busy and can still live in it, so this matter has been delayed until now. To the point of not cultivating.

Han Qingquan thought for a while before he said: "It is indeed time to repair, but if the house is repaired, there will be no time for this paper."

"Let's leave it to someone else to build it, just pay more." Liu Linchu suggested, "However, do you plan to build it on the original site or in another place?"

Han Qianluo turned his head and asked, "Brother, what do you think?"

"I think it should be built in another place. This place is too narrow. Even if it is rebuilt, there is no way to expand the area of ​​the house. I think this place should be reserved for paper making." Han Qingquan expressed his thoughts.

Han Qianluo disagreed a little, because the courtyard wall was too low, and the secrecy was too low. Just like last time, the second aunt easily cut a hole in the wall to peek, so some disagreed. : "I think houses made of paper still need to be repaired."
