He Yuzhu no longer had to carry a lunch box to cover for himself every day.
The door of their house was never locked before, so after he went to work, many people pretended to pass by and drooled at the cured meat and beef jerky hanging on the roof.
First Uncle was no longer worried that He Yuzhu would cook delicious food for the Deaf Old Lady every day.
One day, He Yuzhu was drinking tea in the kitchen when Lou Xiaoe suddenly pushed open the door and walked in.
"He Yuzhu, how's the thing you promised?”Lou Xiaoe asked excitedly.
"What I promised you?" He Yuzhu couldn't remember where she had said that.
Suddenly, he slapped his forehead.
That's right, he promised to carve a statue of himself out of wood for him.
She had been so busy dealing with those people that she had forgotten about this matter.
Lou Xiaoe immediately understood when she saw his expression.
"Why don't you keep your word? I'm..."
"Fairy girl, don't be angry. I'll work overtime, okay? He would definitely complete it as soon as possible, with the highest quality and quantity.”
He Yuzhu was afraid that she would expose herself if she said that she was helping him.
"Did you say that?" Lou Xiaoe pouted and asked angrily.
"Of course, a man's word is a promise!”He Yuzhu patted his chest and promised.
"Alright then. Then I'll give you some more time." Lou Xiaoe reluctantly agreed.
He Yuzhu didn't want Lou Xiao'e to stay in the canteen for too long, so he lied to her and said that he had to go out to do something, and sent her out along the way.
This time, it was all thanks to Lou Xiaoe's help. This woman was straightforward and did not have any sand in her eyes.
He really had to do what he promised her.
Carving was easy for He Yuzhu, but he needed wood and tools.
This was not carving radish flowers. A sharp knife was enough.
He first found Yi Zhonghai.
"First Master, I want a carving knife. Can you make one for me?”
"Don't think that I'm just a fitter. When I was young, I did all kinds of jobs. Now, there are some things in the factory that don't use good steel mouth scraps. Give me the size and appearance, and I guarantee that you won't be able to buy what I make even if you want to.”
When First Uncle heard that, he immediately agreed.
When He Yuzhu heard this, she immediately took out a piece of paper from her pocket. She opened it and saw five diagrams of different size.
"You brat, you're prepared. Alright, I'll hand it over the day after tomorrow!”First Uncle put away the blueprints and went to the factory.
He had the tools, but he couldn't be careless with the raw materials.
Wood carvings were particular about the materials used. Wood that was too hard was not easy to carve, wood that was too soft was not easy to preserve, and wood that was straight was easy to be damaged. Therefore, the material selection had to be both hard and soft. The texture was fine and smooth, and the wood was tough.
Generally, the best materials were mahogany, boxwood, rosewood, lobular rosewood, and red rosewood from the south.
These materials were the most suitable for complicated, exquisite, exquisite, and delicate works.
However, other than the wood used to make the kindling, where else could they find such high-quality materials?
He Yuzhu recalled the historical dramas from the era before he transmigrated.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
He had watched a few of these dramas before watching Love in the Courtyard.
There was a drama called " Little Woman at Zhengyang Gate ". Because it was a drama with the female lead, he didn't like it very much. However, he had a deep memory of some of the plots in it.
It was about the plot of " collecting old furniture." He remembered that there was a character called " Lord Bull " in the movie.
He was the capital's " Old Pao," with royal blood. His horizons were high, and his ability to appreciate was unique.
Moreover, because his family had many children and his family was not well off, he had no choice but to sell his old items to Xu Huizhen, who opened a small tavern, at a low price.
That's right! He had to go to Zhengyang Gate for this matter, and he had to find "Lord Bull" for this person!
He Yuzhu thought of the story of Lord Bull and Zhengyang Gate, and his eyes lit up. He really had to thank Lou Xiao'e. If she hadn't pestered him for the wood carving, he really wouldn't have thought of this!!
If he went to Zhengyang Gate to find Lord Bull, this wood would only be used as a brick to attract jade!!
He Yuzhu checked the rewards he had received for signing in these past few days.
Because he had been a little high-profile these days, he had exchanged all the vegetables for chicken, fish, meat, and other delicious food.
So there wasn't much left. Fortunately, there was still the beef jerky that Lou Xiao 'e had given him.
The cured meat on the roof beam could also be eaten.
It was impossible to have dishes without wine. Lord Bull was very fond of wine.
He Yuzhu moved everything in the space.
The conclusion he got was that he could still exchange 50 catties of white flour, while the rice could only be exchanged for 80 catties.
However, if he wanted to exchange it for wine, he could exchange it for more than ten jars of good Erguotou.
In this era, if you could have rice, noodles, meat, and wine, you could do whatever you wanted!!
But now, perhaps even the tastiest lord would choose rice and white flour instead of meat and wine.
Other than looking for things, he also had to use his brain.
After work at night, He Yuzhu did not go home. Instead, she went straight to Old Master He's tavern at Zhengyang Gate.
He Yuzhu had transmigrated to the world of the Siheyuan, but he did not expect to walk into the plot of Zhengyang Gate.
It seemed that his experience was destined to be extraordinary.
