Chapter 202 Erli Village

The father and daughter set out from home early in the morning and picked up a cart of ready-made toys. When they arrived at the Children's Playhouse, it was almost time for lunch.

At this point, I will go to Erli Village, I am afraid I will have to rest on Zhuangzi tonight.

Therefore, Shiliu decided to leave the city and go to Erli Village early tomorrow morning.

Don't worry now, Li Jihe also saw his toy shop for the first time. Looking at it from the inside out, he had a smile on his face and kept nodding.

Then seeing the eldest son greeting the guests in a decent manner, he really looked like a shopkeeper, and he even smiled.

Pomegranate hasn't been here for a few days, so it's a good idea to ask how the shop has been doing these days.

The two complete sets of toys ordered by Mr. Wang San were delivered, and one set of the toys that were ordered later have also been delivered. They just wait for the big slide to be ready and another set will be shipped.

There are still five bookings on the books right now.

In the past few days, a lot of individual toys have been sold one after another.

As for the play house, there are quite a few people who bring their children to play every day.

While there was no one around, Li Rongyang secretly whispered to Shiliu, "Then Aunt Xu comes here every day! I heard that her man carries big bags on the pier and leaves early and comes back late. She takes care of the children at home and takes care of the housework. She doesn't even go to school. The old man has to wait on her, so she has a very busy day. I looked at her and she almost took our shop as her own. I went to refill her tea yesterday. Do you know what she said? She said that our shop was not considerate enough, so she didn't even think about it. Let’s prepare some snacks for the guests!”

This Aunt Xu is the woman who took her son to play with her all day long on the first day the shop opened. Her family lives in Wutong Lane, just three houses away, very close to each other.

Every day, I got up early, went back to have dinner at noon, and came back right away. I didn't leave until their shop closed.

"There are a lot of people coming to play these days, but most of them will pick out a toy to buy. Even if they don't buy it, they won't come again in succession. She is the only one who keeps coming here without buying anything!"

Pomegranate listened and frowned, but didn't say anything. She just said: "The door is open, so there is no reason not to let people in. Come and come, just watch. As for what she said about snacks or not, You don't care."

After lunch, everyone in the shop could take a break. The sun was shining brightly at noon and there were no people on the street.

Li Rongzong looked at the door again and again, his brows furrowed, "Strange, why is there no movement?"

Li Jihe looked at it and couldn't help but said: "Rongzong, who are you waiting for?"

Li Rongzong said: "It was scheduled that the wood should be delivered today. It used to be delivered before noon, but today, I don't know what happened, but it hasn't been delivered yet."

The wood for the carpentry houses in the village was ordered and delivered at Jinjiazhuang Wood Yard, but the city was too far away. After the carpentry team moved to the shop, Pomegranate contacted the wood from Tongzigou Wood Yard not far outside the city. .

The slides all require pine wood, but a lot of it is needed. We have agreed to deliver a load of pine wood every three days.

Today is the day to deliver wood again.

When Pomegranate heard this, he felt strange. It wasn't raining. It was a sunny day. How could we delay?
"I guess something happened on the way. Just wait. There's no rush."

Li Rongzong became calm after listening to Pomegranate's words. He was not in a hurry. They were buying wood. They were selling wood to make money. How could they not give it to them?

But until the sun went down, the shop was about to close, and there was no one to deliver the wood.

Shiliu said: "If it hasn't been delivered tomorrow, go to Tongzigou to check the situation."

At dawn the next day, Shiliu and Li Jihe got up, washed themselves, drove the mule cart out, and queued up at the North City Gate to wait for the gate to open.

Shiliu stopped by the small bun shop at the city gate and bought a few buns for breakfast. As soon as the city gate opened, Li Jihe drove the mule cart out of the city.

After leaving the city, it was about thirty miles to Erli Village, but it was a little closer to them going home after leaving the city.

However, we were delayed in leaving the city, and by the time we arrived at Erli Village, it was almost time.

To pass Erli Village, they would first pass through a village. Shiliu was planning to find a villager to find out where Erli Village was, but she already saw Zhuangzi here first. Looking at the high door wall and the large and heavy gate, Li Jihe was dumbfounded and blurted out: "Oh, this Zhuangzi looks really impressive!"

Pomegranate also felt that it was really grand. This Zhuangzi worth one thousand five hundred taels was so grand. Those Zhuangzi who owned thousands of acres of fertile land, I don’t know how grand they could be!
The towering door and wall of this Zhuangzi look like a sense of security. Even if bandits come, they won't be able to get in. Living in a place like this, I feel very safe!
It is also surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is not inferior to their Xiahe Village.

Before entering, Pomegranate was already full of praise for this place.

At that moment, she took two handkerchiefs, poured water into the bamboo tube and soaked them, then handed one to Li Jihe, "Dad, wipe off the sweat."

Li Jihe took the handkerchief and did as he was told, and Pomegranate carefully wiped the sweat off his face. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and now that the sun was up, he was sweating without even moving.

This is the first time I entered Zhuangzi, and my face was dripping with sweat, which didn’t look good.

After his face felt refreshed, Li Jihe rushed to the gate in a mule cart, got off the mule cart, and raised his hand to knock on the door.

The knock on the door rang for a while, and only the creak of the door was heard. Li Jihe didn't see the door and couldn't help but wonder.

"Who are you?"

There was a voice coming from the side. Li Jihe turned around and saw that there was a small door on the side of the main door.

A thin figure poked out of the small door, looking at them curiously.

Pomegranate in the car has already answered: "Our surname is Li."

Upon hearing this, Shunzi's eyes widened immediately, "But Miss Pomegranate?"

Shiliu knew that Liu Dong's family would definitely send someone to explain Zhuangzi's change of ownership: "Exactly."

After Shunzi was convinced, he quickly went back and opened the door wide so that the mule cart could enter.

When the gate opened, Li Jihe got back on the mule cart. When the door opened, he drove the mule cart in.

Shunzi waited for the mule cart to enter before closing the door, then trotted up and asked Li Jihe to drive the mule cart to the shed for him.

Zhuangzi had already heard the sound of the door opening and closing. At this moment, a middle-aged man came out quickly.

This person was none other than Jiang De, the head of Erli Village. When he saw a little girl coming, he counted it and came up a few steps, "But Miss Pomegranate?"

Pomegranate nodded again, "Exactly."

Jiang Dedun immediately cupped his hands and said, "It turns out the boss is here!"

Having said that, we quickly invited them inside. The sun was shining brightly outside and it was hot.

After about ten steps, I entered a courtyard gate. There was a patio at the entrance, with houses on both sides, and a large hall in the middle. After the hall was a hallway, and after the hall was a large courtyard. The yard was planted with many lush trees. I feel cool just looking at it.

There are corridors on the left and right with east and west compartments, leading to the five magnificent main rooms.

There should be a courtyard behind the main house, but Shiliu and the others stopped when they entered the main hall.

There is a complete set of mahogany furniture placed in the foyer, which looks very grand. It is like a village, and even the furniture and furnishings are included.

All these furniture together are worth a lot of money.

Pomegranate thought to herself, and took a seat in the foyer, watching Jiang De prepare the tea and bring it in.

This village head looks pretty good.
