Chapter 119

Three days later, Uncle Qin came back with the finished rolling rake. He borrowed a cow from Brother Jin's house and immediately went to the field to try it out. Seeing his joy, Lu Yumin also pulled Aunt Qin to follow.

The seedling field had already been plowed, and large chunks of mud were turning over to the sides along the lines of the plow. Uncle Qin first used a rake to smooth them out, and then dragged the rake down the field.

Uncle Qin tried his balance on the rolling rake and was about to throw the bullwhip. Lu Yumin hurriedly called him: "Uncle Qin, please slow down. When you stand, lean forward a little, and after a while the cow will pull you forward and run forward." You have to be careful that your body will fall backwards! Also, be careful of muddy water splashing into your eyes."

Uncle Qin smiled "hehe": "Boss, you are really right in reminding me! Good guy, do you see me like this? I'm starting to try!"

With a yell and a flick of the bullwhip, as the cow walked forward, waves of water rolled back. Uncle Qin stood on the rake, and the sound of "grunt" that he was familiar with when he was rolling the fields in his previous life came out from under the rake. After a while, Uncle Qin's whole body became a mud monkey!

Aunt Qin looked at Uncle Qin whose face was covered with muddy water and said with a smile: "No wonder you said you should be careful of the muddy water, my boss. Look at this old man, he can move except his eyes, and his face is covered with muddy water. Nobody can recognize it!"

Lu Yumin smiled and said, "No matter how Uncle Qin becomes, with Aunt Qin's good eyes, even if he becomes another person, you can recognize Aunt Qin!"

Aunt Qin jokingly said, "Boss, are you talking about your young couple! I see you, even if you become a flower, Li Bo's family can see it from the flowers at a glance!"

Lu Yumin, who was in a good mood, laughed loudly: "Aunt Qin, you are always good at telling myths! There are thousands of flowers, and if I really become one of them, I'm afraid he would have to have the eyes of Erlang God to recognize them." !"

The two were talking and laughing when they saw Uncle Qin jumping off the rake back and forth. He tied the ox to one side and walked down the field while picking up the mud that had just been rolled over. After comparing and comparing, I was so happy that I burst into tears: "Old woman, I have planted the land for so many years, and I have never used such an easy-to-use thing! This thing is so easy-to-use!"

Aunt Qin said with a smile: "Our boss is really smart! Such a new thing can be figured out."

Lu Yumin smiled and said: "Aunt Qin, you also know that my husband is out of the house, and I rely on Uncle Qin for help in so many places at home. I was thinking about how to make this kind of field work easier. After thinking about it, this The child's windmill is turning around, and that's what I thought of. Now that you have this rake, you can relax, Uncle Qin!"

Uncle Qin was very grateful for this considerate boss. After thinking about it, he solemnly nodded and said, "Boss, once this thing is used, many people will come to ask about it. I have an idea, if someone cooperates to make this thing Make it and sell it, I am afraid that there will be many people who buy it, I think it can be sold and bought!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yumin said happily, "Uncle Qin, your idea is really good! Spring plowing is about to start, and every household needs to use this thing! Who did you find to do it? Shall we talk to him?"

Uncle Qin immediately said: "Brother Jin's second brother did it, and he has been a carpenter for more than ten years! When he was making it, he even asked about the purpose of this thing!"

Lu Yumin heard it: "Great! Let the top four go to Jin Ming to discuss this matter in a while! This thing is easy to be imitated, and if we want to earn it, we must earn the first money!"

Uncle Qin said approvingly: "My boss is right, I will go to brother Jin Ming immediately and ask him to make arrangements as soon as possible!"

Lu Yumin thought for a while and said, "Uncle Qin, you should go back and take a shower and change your clothes. This business is not strong enough for a family to run. If Brother Jin and the top four are allowed to join in, you and the fifth younger brother will count." One copy, send a few to the county government immediately after the first batch of this thing is ready!"

Uncle Qin was even more grateful: "Thank you, my boss! Thank you, my boss! I'll go home and change the laundry, and I'll go out and call them over right away!"

Three days later, Uncle Qin took the three finished roller rakes and drove the carriage into the county government office. Hearing that the owner and the government office were all in Dongping Village outside the city, he turned to the road again.

As soon as he turned into the intersection of the village, Uncle Qin stopped a man and asked, "Brother, can the magistrate and his party be in your village?"

The man immediately pointed to a big house not far ahead and said, "We are in the middle of the house! You can go along this path, it will be much closer!" He pointed to a field and just passed a carriage. he.

As soon as the carriage stopped and a group of people came out of the house, a man in his fifties was talking to Tang Yunqing. Uncle Qin immediately stepped forward and knelt down: "I have seen the master! I have seen the master!"

Tang Yunqing immediately asked: "Well, Qin Dayong, why are you here? No courtesy!"

Li Sanlin asked uncomprehendingly: "Uncle Qin, why did you come here? Is there some urgent matter at home?"

Thinking of his boss's explanation, Uncle Qin immediately hinted at Li Sanlin before saying: "Sir, I have something to report to my boss. My boss, the rake that you told me before you left is ready, and my mistress has let me I tried it, and the effect is really good, so I specially asked me to send it over to show the magistrate!"

After seeing Uncle Qin's hint, Li Sanlin immediately realized that it must be the words that his daughter-in-law and Uncle Qin had set up, so he pretended to be surprised and asked, "It's really done? That's great!"

Seeing Li Sanlin's surprised face, Tang Yunqing immediately asked with interest: "Qin Dayong, tell me, what's new?"

Uncle Qin immediately turned around and took a roller rake from the car and said, "Master, please look, this is what it is!"

Tang Yunqing looked left and right but didn't understand, he asked in puzzlement: "Qin Dayong, what is this thing for?"

Uncle Qin immediately replied: "Returning to the master, the villain can only simply say that it is used to level the field, and the villain wants to borrow a cow, a pear, and a paddy field to demonstrate the use of this thing. "

Tang Yunqing immediately ordered: "Zhang Lizheng, make arrangements quickly."

The fifty-something old man on the side immediately said: "Yes! My lord! There is an empty paddy field in front of the little man's house, and immediately ask the servants to bring the things!"

Uncle Qin immediately said politely: "I will ask this master to prepare a bucket of heat for the villain later. After raking the ground, the whole body will be splashed with mud!"

The old man was Zhang Lizheng of this village, and he immediately said, "That's no problem! Master Tang, this way please!"

After Uncle Qin demonstrated the function of the rake, Tang Yunqing looked at Li Sanlin thoughtfully and asked, "Brother-in-law, why did you come up with this thing?"

Li Sanlin was stunned and immediately reacted: "Back to what the adults said. Last time when the villain and his wife were planting rapeseed in the village, two children were unwilling to go to school, so we let them learn to farm. When tidying up the raked land, The daughter-in-law said that it would be great if there was a tool that could make the land thinner! If so, I won’t be exhausted!”

"Later when we got home and we had nothing to do, we worked with Uncle Qin to figure it out. When my daughter-in-law made origami cars for the children, we thought that we could use this windmill to rotate, maybe we could really make something! We haven't had time to complete it yet. Little man, I will come out with you, my lord!"

Tang Yunqing really looked at Li Sanlin differently now: "I didn't expect my brother-in-law to be so thoughtful about this kind of field! Well, this thing is a good thing. Zhang Lizheng can let the village come and see it later. If anyone wants to order it, brother-in-law can buy more Make some and sell them to everyone!"

Li Sanlin was stunned and immediately responded: "This matter has to be discussed carefully at home. I am afraid that we have to discuss the cost, materials, and craftsmen of making the rake."

Tang Yunqing nodded thoughtfully and said: "The matter of craftsmen can be recruited by the county government. As for the materials and masters, I think you also have them, so Qin Dayong will go back and prepare them. You can tell your mother about this matter." explain."

Li Sanlin immediately agreed: "Okay, just follow your lord's orders. This drawing of the rake was drawn by my wife, and she is familiar with it. Uncle Qin, you will run the outside affairs, and let my daughter-in-law arrange the rest." !"

Uncle Qin really admires the owner's adaptability!The boss probably doesn't know a little bit about this matter, especially about the windmill, he probably doesn't know that the mistress has mentioned this matter.Not only did he not panic when asked by the county magistrate, but he also spoke clearly and clearly. These two couples really deserve each other!

Speaking of the windmill, it was actually something that Li Sanlin joked about when Lu Yumin was making toys for Yaya.

Zhang Lizheng felt his heart itch when Uncle Qin demonstrated, and immediately bowed his hands to Li Sanlin after hearing the county magistrate's recommendation: "Master Li, I will order a set with you first! The price is up to you."

Li Sanlin saw that Lizheng was on the road, so he said politely: "It's easy to say! Zhang Lizheng, you are so supportive, and when it is done, it will definitely not be considered your precious!"

After everyone discussed, Li Sanlin took advantage of Tang Yunqing to get up and immediately asked softly: "Uncle Qin, is this thing really made by your wife?"

Uncle Qin immediately told him what happened that day: "Boss, the lady boss said that if you want to earn money, you should earn the first sum of money. Others can learn this quickly. But now it seems that we can't manage it by ourselves. I have to explain it to my hostess when I go back."

Li Sanlin immediately said: "This matter is both good and bad. If the yamen sells it uniformly, others can't sell it privately. Even if they know how to do it, no one dares to buy it blatantly. But as long as there is a little craftsmanship in this thing, you can buy it carefully. It is not difficult to make it, and the first money is probably the only one that can be earned."

Uncle Qin finally said: "The hostess said that everything is fine at home, so don't worry about it, and the young master has also been sent to the library."

Before Uncle Qin left, Li Sanlin repeatedly confessed: "Go back and tell Niu Niu to let him study hard. Tell my wife that as soon as the matter here is over, I will go home as soon as possible. Please leave the family affairs to Uncle Qin!"

Uncle Qin immediately waved his hand and said, "My boss, you're welcome, this is my duty!" In fact, he knew that this male boss was really homesick, otherwise he wouldn't have dragged him to explain so much again and again!
After returning home and explaining the situation to Lu Yumin, Uncle Qin immediately told her what Tang Yunqing meant: "Master, Mr. Tang means that this thing should be sold in the town government offices of each town in the name of the county government offices. !"

Lu Yumin was taken aback and immediately asked thoughtfully, "Did my elder brother really say that?"

Uncle Qin nodded immediately: "That's what the county magistrate said! He said that the craftsmen are recruited by the county government, which means that in the future this item cannot be sold privately! I have been with Master Tang for two years, and I still know a little about his temper. He is afraid that if this farm tool is dedicated to the court, if it is released in the name of the county government, it will be a political achievement for the master!"

Lu Yumin secretly despised this Tang Yunqing. Although she kept saying that she was her own sister, as long as it involved his future, she really put everything in the back row!But I also admire him a little bit, reason is greater than emotion, everything can be based on the future!
Uncle Qin's reasoning was not wrong. A few years later, Tang Yunqing really took advantage of this new rice planting method and the implementation of this new farm tool, and made great progress!

That being the case, if the honor is given to him, she will get some money, right?In the name of the county government, in the name of the county government, but the money should be divided up!It's just that what was discussed yesterday has to be discussed again with Brother Jin and the others. This backlash should not be done even if it is helpless.

Thinking of the excited faces of the previous two days, Lu Yumin said embarrassingly: "Uncle Qin, I have to trouble you to let Jin Ke and the others come again, this matter has to be discussed again."

Others are fine, but Li Wulin has already told Cui about the matter and asked his father to chop down more hard chestnut trees. When Cui knew that this big business had become a small one, he immediately felt dissatisfied and went around secretly saying that the daughter-in-law wanted to do it for the sake of it. Brothers from my natal family, I don’t want any brothers from my husband’s family!
Especially after it was spread to Cuijia Village, the uncles of the Cui family also bought the rake with silver. They heard that it was a business of the nephew’s family, and they themselves spent a lot of money. I felt very uncomfortable. Someone mentioned this When rolling the rake, this great aunt always hums with her nose up!
Lu Yumin didn't know about it at the time, but she returned to the village a long time later and heard Wang Dafeng secretly mentioning: "Third brothers and sisters, you said that this mother-in-law is really like the stick you said, and you have made all the brothers feel that you are doing this business of rolling rakes." She earned a lot of money, but she did tell others that you only see the family of the official family in your eyes, and you don’t see the poor people!"

At that time, Lu Yumin was so angry that she wanted to get the money back from Cui Shi!Of course, this is something.If she had known earlier, she would not have let Li Wulin take this job!

After the matter of rolling the rake was agreed, everyone started to split up. The first month passed in a blink of an eye, and Niu Niu and Hu Zi were also sent to the library in the town. Niu Niu took a nickname of Li Yingji. Carrying the small schoolbag made by Lu Yumin, he followed Li Wulin to the school.

Seeing her brother go to school, Yaya pouted and insisted on following her. Meili hurriedly pulled her and said, "Sister, you can't go here. Brother is going to school, not the place to go!"

Yaya pulled Lu Yumin's sleeve and asked in puzzlement, "Mom, why can't I go to school?"

Mei Li said with a smile: "Because you are a girl! How can there be girls going to school?"

Yaya said unconvinced: "Mother, why can't girls go to school? Sister Meili is talking nonsense!"

Mei Li said aggrievedly: "Sister, I didn't talk nonsense! Anyway, I can't tell you anything, you can ask Third Aunt!
But Lu Yumin was also immediately overwhelmed by Yaya, a thousand-year-old question!Why can't women go to school?Is it caused by this feudal society?A child who is only five or six years old, is it useful for you to explain to her?

But that stubborn little face won't stop until he gets an answer!Lu Yumin had no choice but to hug her and say, "Because going to school is very hard! Girls are mother's little Jiaojiao, and mother is not willing to let her suffer! Also, girls are going to grow into beauties, wait for us When I’m older, I’ll learn how to sew with Sister Meili and Sister Qingcao, and learn how to make beautiful clothes by myself, then it’ll become more and more beautiful!”

No matter from three years old to 80 years old, women are beautiful, this is nature!Lu Yumin couldn't answer Yaya's question beyond a hundred thousand reasons, so she had to find something she liked to say to her.

Sure enough, upon hearing the word "beautiful", Yaya happily asked, "Mom, when will I grow up?"

Lu Yumin deliberately thought about it: "As long as Yaya eats obediently every day, in another year, she will grow up!"

Children are good liars and the worst liars, Lu Yumin can only answer her with this white lie at this time!
But Yaya didn't know that this was a topic that the adults were prevaricating, so she happily yelled at Meili: "Sister Meili, go and wear beautiful clothes, you will look better!"

Lu Yumin jokingly said: "If your sister Meili is too good-looking, others will come to propose marriage! Then you will provoke a brother-in-law to come back, little girl, don't cry!"

"Ah?" The little girl said with a bitter face, "Sister Mei Li, you still look the best like this!"

Seeing Meili blushing and stomping her feet, Lu Yumin couldn't help but "hahaha..." laughed loudly: "Look, your sister Meili is shy!"
