Chapter 24 Starting to Build the Model

"Hahaha," Cheng Ruoxi laughed heartily, "Yun'er, this kid is here to discuss business, and he still wants to say thank you."

Zhuo Jin heard what Cheng Ruoxi said, but said calmly:
"Mrs. Zhou, listen to me carefully. The supply and demand of my family's wood is now in a state of balance. In addition to supplying to the Zhou family, there are other buyers, and the price to the Zhou family is indeed the lowest. Therefore, Giving a lower price is really out of gratitude to Miss Er."

Having said that, Zhuo Jin glanced at Zhou Yuncheng, and then said:

"But it's unavoidable to talk about business. When we open the door to do business, we must want to get better and better. As the saying goes, leaning against a big tree can enjoy the shade. The Zhou family is obviously such a big tree."

"You are frank. So, since the supply and demand have been balanced, what do you use as the source of all the goods we need?" Cheng Ruoxi asked.

"Of course we can expand the source." Zhuo Jin replied confidently: "It is not a problem to add manpower and find the source."

"Okay, I've received your proposal." Cheng Ruoxi thought about it, and then said, "But this is my master's decision. When he comes back, I will mention it to him."

"Thank you Madam Zhou." Zhuo Jin bowed respectfully again.

"That's fine. If you have nothing to do, you can go back first." Cheng Ruoxi felt a little tired seeing Zhuo Jin being so courteous.

"Yes. In addition," Zhuo Jin said, "Miss Zhou, Master said that the components of the model bridge are almost ready. Please go to Prince Jing's Mansion tomorrow to prepare for the construction."

"Got it, go back." Zhou Yuncheng waved his hand and said.

After Zhuo Jin completely withdrew, Zhou Yuncheng turned to Cheng Ruoxi:

"What do you think?"

"It's true that he thanks you, and it's true that he wants to monopolize the market." Cheng Ruoxi replied.

"It's not this, I mean Prince Jing's Mansion." Zhou Yuncheng shook her head and said.

"Oh, that," Cheng Ruoxi said thoughtfully, "Do you think they will start with the food?"

"It's hard not to doubt the speed of this substitution," Zhou Yuncheng said.

"How about I find someone to take over the back-office kitchen?" Cheng Ruoxi said, "Our family has a lot of ready-made ones in this area."

"Well," Zhou Yuncheng said, "I'll go and have a look tomorrow."

The next day, Zhou Yuncheng arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion as scheduled.

As soon as he entered Luotian's book garden, Zhou Yuncheng saw wood debris all over the floor, as well as finished wooden beams neatly piled up in the corner of the courtyard.

The smell of sawdust is really refreshing.Zhou Yuncheng was thinking about it when Li Changgong's voice sounded:
"Miss Zhou is here."

"Look at this, are you tired the past few days?" Zhou Yuncheng looked around at the busy workers in the garden, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

The workers didn't expect Zhou Yuncheng to say that. After a while, they all said:

"It should be, Miss Zhou is too polite."

Then they chatted and chatted about something, and started to work on the things in hand again.

"Xiao Zhuo, bring Xiao Dai and the others to prepare for the bridge." Li Changgong ordered.

"Yes." After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, he waved to the two small workers standing next to the wood in the corner, and they moved the processed wood to the middle of the garden.

"According to the markings on the picture, plus what you said before 'one inch is divided into ten feet', I reckon the length of this garden is enough to accommodate this 'model'." Li Changgong said: "But, I'm still a little worried..."

"What are you worried about?" Zhou Yuncheng asked.

"I'm worried that it will collapse." Li Changgong said unabashedly.

"I remember last time, Li Changgong, you said that the construction of this picture is ingenious." Zhou Yuncheng teased him.

"It's as if I made this picture," Li Changgong said, blowing his beard, "This kind of overlapping method has never been seen before. According to the overlapping method in the picture, one tree is pressed against another. Like rattan weaving, they lift each other up, form a round arch in the middle, and finally form a bridge. It is really exquisite."

"Then you said it was going to collapse." Zhou Yuncheng laughed at him.

"Miss Zhou!" Li Changgong was a little annoyed: "Don't you think it's easy to break?"

Zhou Yuncheng looked at Li Changgong and thought he was so funny.I am very happy to see new things, but now I am worried about the problem of breaking, especially like an old professor she met before, jumping back and forth between traditional and innovative skills.So Zhou Yuncheng couldn't help but want to tease him.

"Okay, okay, I'm not, I shouldn't laugh." Zhou Yuncheng stopped, and stopped teasing Li Changgong: "That's why I said I need to build a model to test it first."

Li Changgong squinted at Zhou Yuncheng, he was annoyed, he hummed and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Yuncheng turned around and asked a passing maid to make a pot of tea, and then said to Li Changgong:

"Have a cup of tea to calm down." At the same time, he made a smooth movement.

At this time, Xiao Zhuo and the two small workers had moved most of the components over.

But when it comes to building, they all show embarrassment, like a mosquito biting an egg, unable to start.

But Zhou Yuncheng didn't know how to build the model of the bridge.In the last life, I made a lot of architectural models, but the tall buildings are built on the ground, and after all the parts are completed, they are spliced ​​from the bottom to the top.

But this bridge...

"Let's start from the two ends and work towards the middle." Li Changgong said at this moment.

Hearing Li Changgong's words, Xiao Zhuo and the two workers began to pick up the processed wood and make gestures.It's not right to let it go like this, and it's not right to let it go that way.After a while, all three of them were sweating profusely.

"Get out of the way, I'll do it." Li Changgong couldn't stand it any longer, and neatly placed Luo Tian's drawings one by one on the small table next to him, looking at them and finding out how to manipulate them.

Those who can read drawings have inherent advantages.Zhou Yuncheng sighed in her heart: It would be great if Luo Tian could come up with a blueprint to explain the truth, so it wouldn't make people so anxious.

"Miss Zhou, don't just stand there, come and help." Li Changgong looked at Zhou Yuncheng who had nothing to do with him, and was furious.

"Here we come." Zhou Yuncheng hurried over to help read the drawings.

The two Xiao Dai who were following Xiao Zhuo were shocked by this interaction.Li Changgong has always been very measured, whether he is very polite to people in Prince Jing's Mansion or Zhou Mansion, it can even be described as alienated.

Li Changgong often taught them that if they wanted to do it for a long time, they had to abide by these rules.Moreover, people's hearts are separated by belly, and woodworkers must keep their bottom line in order to keep safe.

But why did Li Changgong feel so genuine when he was doing things with the second young lady of the Zhou family?

The second young lady of the Zhou family is also very strange this week. It is rumored outside that she is aloof and disregards human life.Why is Li Changgong bickering with her so much, and she is still happy?
