Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 514 Make it Exquisite and Beautiful

Xu Chenming's words obviously carried a bit of unfulfilled ambition, but also a sense of satisfaction.It is estimated that he has a lot of ideas in his heart, but there are not many opportunities to realize them.Even he himself wondered if these ideas of his were really unrealistic and could not be regarded as a good carpenter.

And this time, Liu Ya's proposal and her approval of the idea in his heart will definitely allow him to fulfill his wish once.So even if he really can't continue to do carpentry, he has no regrets.

But Liu Ya didn't think so. Liu Ya felt that only thinking can make progress, so she gave Xu Chenming a space to develop.So he said: "I think your idea is very good, and I can accept it, but you can't be too willful in the general direction, you still have to discuss it with me. But if you can do well this time, I think you Instead, let your master also see the effect of your completion, so that your master can let you become a teacher with confidence."

"No." Xu Chen was obviously helpless, shook his head and said: "I also tried to make a lot of exquisite things, and there are many furniture that are very exquisite when they are made, but Master still feels that there is no intention. at his request."

"Personal perspectives are different." Liu Ya thought for a while and said, "If you do well this time, I will help you to ask your master for a favor? Or, you don't have to follow your master anymore, and you yourself How about opening a shop?"

"How can anyone open a shop without being a teacher, that is disrespecting the master. I'd better do my job well this time, maybe there is room for discussion with the master." Xu Chenming has his own ideas, but for His master is a bit foolish and loyal again.

Liu Ya couldn't tell whether he should admire his respectful teacher, or call him pedantic.But I haven't seen him actually doing carpentry work yet, so I'm talking about everything.

In this way, he had seen the layout of the new house. Xu Chenming said to Liu Ya: "Looking at the current situation, it may take a few days to put on the tiles and plaster the walls. I will go back and prepare things, and then put the necessary Calculate the wood. You can also buy some wood first. As for what kind of material the owner likes, we don’t care, just do the work. But the quality of the wood is also related to the style and color of the finished product, so the best Good boss, please tell me first."

Liu Ya thought about it, the living standard of their family is very high now, but it is obviously unrealistic to make mahogany furniture.Not to mention mahogany, even better walnut is not cheap.So Liu Ya decided to use ordinary but strong catalpa wood.Catalpa wood in Northeast China is a hardwood, and it also has its unique wood texture. The key is that it is cheap, durable, and does not have the smell of pine.

Talking to Xu Chenming, Xu Chenming said: "It's also very good, but to make furniture with this kind of hardwood, the saws used are different. In addition, for the furniture to look good, it is best to follow the grain when connecting the wood grains. It’s a waste of wood. Of course, if the owner thinks that the furniture is strong and durable, then there is no need to carefully consider the wood grain, and I can make the furniture well.”

Liu Ya thought that catalpa wood was not expensive, and the more beautiful the wood grains are, the more delicate the furniture would be.Such a large house has been built, and the furniture is not made of red sandalwood and huanghuali. Is it necessary to buy a few meters of wood?He said: "Okay, the wood is a few meters more, it would be nice to make it more delicate and beautiful."

Even if it is completely settled in this way, as for the specific style, Xu Chenming said that carpenters also have sketches, and they can draw a copy for Liu Ya.If there is something unsatisfactory, it can be improved.

Liu Ya also agreed to look at the sketch, so she agreed to do it again after Xu Chenming drew the sketch and calculated the timber.And when you come, you can also bring some of the tools you need, and then see when the work can start, the furniture matter is considered settled.

After discussing everything, it was already dark.Liu Dacheng looked at the sky and asked Xu Chenming, "How long did it take you to walk from Xiaozhang Village? If you go back at this hour, can you still hire a carriage?"

Xu Chenming also scratched his head slightly, and said helplessly: "I'm afraid there is no carriage to go back. But when I passed by Xiaozhang Village, I saw a small board with a boarding house. I can stay there for a night. Get up early tomorrow and go back to town."

In ancient times, it was not as convenient as there are many hotels, guesthouses, and chain hotels in modern times. Some towns did not even have special inns without traffic arteries.Only the towns that official roads and commercial roads pass through will have special inns or post houses for guests to rest.

But it's not that all ancient people stopped going out, nor did they want to sleep in the wilderness, but some people would agree to passers-by for the night.I just live in the host’s house, and the houses are all free houses of the host’s house. I only need to pay a little less money for a night’s stay, and I may even give away a breakfast.It can also be regarded as providing convenience for people on the road, and the host family can also have a small income.

But Xu Chenming said that there is a place to stay, but Liu Dazhi didn't ask to stay.After all, Xu Chenming hadn't officially worked as a carpenter at Liu's family yet, and he was a young man again, so of course he wouldn't stay if he didn't stay overnight.

But Liu Ya thought for a while and said, "Since you didn't hire a carriage when you came, I'll see you off when you go back. It just so happens that my family has a carriage to send you to Xiaozhang Village, so you can stay overnight. Remember the money, and I will add it to your wages later."

Xu Chenming was very happy to hear that, after all, he didn't need to go to Xiaozhang Village step by step.Liu Ya also promised him that the accommodation fee would be included in the wages, which is really a good host.Can't help but thank you.

Liu Dacheng said worriedly: "Ya'er, it's getting dark today, why don't you let Xiao Shu'er go with you?"

Liu Dacheng was afraid that if Xu Chenming had malicious intentions, Liu Ya, a girl, would not be able to escape.Accompanied by Xiao Shu'er, it is naturally more safe.

Liu Ya thought about it, so that her father would feel at ease and would not be suspected, so she agreed.

Pushing Liu Dacheng home, he called Xiao Shu'er to set up a car together, and Xu Chenming hurried over to help.Liu Xu'er was drying the clothes in the yard, but when she saw Xu Chenming and Liu Ya in the yard, she dropped the unfinished clothes and went back to the house.

Of course, Xiao Shu'er didn't understand what happened to the eldest sister, but she even yelled and asked: "Eldest sister, the clothes haven't finished drying yet, did you forget something?"

Liu Xu'er replied in the room: "I forgot that there is still water boiling on the stove, you can hang up the remaining clothes. I am afraid that the water will be boiled dry, so add two ladles of water."
