Chapter 2060 Special Stone
After scolding, he still couldn't get rid of his anger, so he slapped the low table on the fire bed hard, shaking the table.
"Just scold her. Don't hit the table. Your hands will hurt." Qin Sanlang grabbed her hand and saw that her palm was red from slapping it, so he rubbed it for her: "Xiaoyu, don't be angry, even if the two families are promised to make porcelain. The impact of business on us is limited. At the worst, we can lower the price of our porcelain and still sell it, but the Xu family will have to pay a big price for it."
He looked at Gu Jinli and said, "Although General Jiang trusts Xu You very much, if Xu You violates this trust again and again, one day he will suffer the consequences."
"But it's too slow. We must make a fuss about this matter. Otherwise, if General Jiang wakes up on his own, I'm afraid he will have to wait a lifetime." Gu Jinli said angrily: "Although the life-saving grace should be repaid properly, there is no need to take the whole family's money. Are you going to practice for Xu You?"
They have found out the reason why Jiang Wankang is devoted to Xu You. To put it bluntly, it is a life-saving grace. Because of this, Xu You almost loses his ability to be a man.
But it was just a close call. Xu You now has more than ten legitimate children. The injuries he suffered back then didn't delay him from giving birth at all. He didn't know how many more children he could have!
Qin Sanlang agreed: "Okay, I'll go find the Zhong family to deal with the commotion. Don't be angry, Xiaoyu."
Uncle He is not a vegetarian, and he will not suffer this kind of loss in vain. He will definitely take advantage of Zhan's reason to make a big fuss, making Jiang Wanzang feel guilty.
"Well, I'll leave it to you." Gu Jinli smiled, but quickly put away his smile: "The price of porcelain cannot be reduced. Why should the price of something made with hard work be reduced? Those disabled soldiers are still waiting for porcelain money to support their families. , sell it for ten cents less, and those disabled soldiers will earn five cents less."
Those who buy porcelain are rich people. Rich people don't care about spending more money to buy things. They won't lower the price until they die. They can't get any cheaper than Xu You and Shen's porcelain kiln!
But……
Qin Sanlang said: "If there are two porcelain traders in one place, the price will naturally be lowered."
Normally, there would only be one porcelain kiln in several prefectures, but now there are two porcelain kilns in Long'an Prefecture. They still sell them at high prices, so business will definitely be difficult.
Gu Jinli was confident, raised his head slightly, looked at him and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, your wife, I have a trick."
Qin Sanlang looked at her sweet smile, lowered his head and kissed her, and asked: "Xiaoyu has any special tricks, can you tell me, your husband?"
Gu Jinli said: "Do you still remember when I was looking for colored stones?"
Qin Sanlang nodded: "Remember, that all happened when we were in He'an Mansion."
When a man gets crowned at 20, Xiaoyu is very concerned about his crowning ceremony, so when he turns eighteen, he begins to think about giving him something nice and practical as a gift for him when he reaches his crowning age.
Tang knives, battle armor, medicinal materials, and people who are good at medicine and blacksmithing are practical gifts. Another gift is good-looking, representing prosperity and beauty.
It was precisely because of the things she did that convinced him that Xiaoyu had him in her heart and that he did not have unrequited love.
It's a pity that I encountered a lot of things later. I was busy coming to the northwest and fighting the war, so I never had time to make gifts.
However, she brought the things she found along with her. Xiaoyu said she would make them for him when she was free. It would count as a gift for his twenty-first year, so she would not have to prepare a new birthday gift for him this year.
He complained at the time, saying that she was lazy and didn't pay attention to his birthday.
But at that time, I was still in the Lei Family Courtyard of Xing'an Prefecture. It has been a year. Could it be: "Xiaoyu started making gifts with stones again?"
Gu Jinli nodded: "Well, I was free some time ago, and I was afraid that when you were celebrating your birthday, you would be called by bandits again, and you would be in a hurry like last year, so I wanted to make the gift first, and then even if I was running for my life, I would not be with you. Even if you are not in the same place, there are still gifts that can be given to you to make you happy."
After listening to this, Qin Sanlang felt a little uncomfortable thinking about the fact that they were separated for half a year last year because of the war: "Don't worry, Xiaoyu, the Rong bandits are also in a mess. Rong Rentian Khan may not be able to lead his troops to kill again this year. Let's You can take a year to recuperate.”
Gu Jinli nodded and said with a smile: "Well, let's live this year well."
Then he said: "Let's not talk about being a soldier for now. Let's go into the house and I will show you what I made."
Gu Jinli took his hand, led him into the back room, and handed him a key: "Open the cellar."
They dug a small pit one meter deep in the back room, built a turning head, covered it with lime to prevent moisture, and put in wooden boxes to hide things.
Qin Sanlang took the key, removed the upper box, and then lifted up a carpet, revealing the cellar door. While unlocking the cellar door, he asked with a smile: "What on earth did Xiaoyu do?" Good stuff, so well hidden.”
Gu Jinli hummed proudly: "You'll know when you open it."
Qin Sanlang smiled, unlocked the door, and asked her, "Which one do you want to move?"
Gu Jinli: "The one on the right, be careful. It's full of rocks, very heavy."
Qin Sanlang: "Well, Xiaoyu, don't worry."
With a boost of energy, he took out the big wooden box on the right in the blink of an eye, put it on the ground, took the new key from her, opened the big wooden box, and saw that inside was half a box of various stones, with a small box on top. .
He took out the small box and handed it to her.
Gu Jinli took it, took out another key, opened the small box, and took out pieces of paper-like glue that looked like acne patches on her face from the small box inside, and handed it to him: "Here, this is it. ”
He added: "You can only grab the edges, not places with stone powder, otherwise this thing will be useless."
"Okay." Qin Sanlang took a piece of adhesive tape and looked at it. He frowned and asked, "Is this what Xiaoyu has been working on for almost three years?"
He wanted to make Xiaoyu happy, but... this sticker was a bit ordinary. It was just an extra layer of stone powder on the sticker.
The painting is very simple, just a few flowers.
However, this was something Xiaoyu had worked so hard to make. He couldn't criticize her, so he had to praise: "It's a plum blossom. It's beautifully made and the color is very bright. I like it very much."
When Gu Jinli heard this, he laughed and became more and more proud: "It looks good, I think it looks very good too."
Qin Sanlang: "...It looks good. I like this gift very much. Thank you Xiaoyu."
Well, let’s make the little fish happy!
but……
"Xiaoyu, what do these stickers have to do with porcelain?" Qin Sanlang didn't want to make Gu Jinli sad, so he said cryptically: "Xiaoyu, don't worry about the sale of porcelain. We won't lower the price. The Zhong family is here, just like high-priced porcelain." If it can be sold, if not, I will ask Dou Ke to help...just keep these stickers and make them gifts for me."
Gu Jinli was angry when he heard this: "What do you mean, you don't believe me?"
Qin Sanlang hugged her with one hand and coaxed: "I believe Xiaoyu, and I also like the stone powder stickers made by Xiaoyu, but outsiders' preferences are different from mine... they may not like it very much."
Seeing that he spoke so tactfully, Gu Jinli laughed out loud, pulled his cheek and said, "You don't have to coax me with nice words. I know that glue-pasted stone powder painting is not good, but this glue-paste has a strange effect." The beauty lies not in the paintings, but in the fact that after they are integrated into the porcelain, hot water is poured on them and the shapes become visible when heated."
