Because the puppets look novel, they also attract many people to watch.

However, because the price is indeed not cheap, some people give up the idea of ​​buying it.

But among the people who came to offer incense, there were many people from wealthy families, and most of the puppets this time were of the twelve zodiac animals. Their round and plump shapes made people fall in love with them, and they were willing to seek good luck, so they bought them.

Take it back and enjoy it.

Therefore, although the business at Jiang Chunshi's was not as smooth and lively as Jiang Youcheng's, more than half of the puppets were sold, earning almost a tael of silver.

When the cost of wood is almost negligible, this few silver dollars can almost be said to be a pure profit.

It can be said that Jiang Chunshi was very happy. In front of Jiang Youcheng, he kept praising Jiang Mixia for his good drawings and delicate thoughts. He knew that it would be easy to sell things here in Deyin Temple.

Jiang Youcheng felt happy when he heard his nephew praising his daughter as a flower. He nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "That's right, Xiaoxia's thoughts right now are beyond the reach of ordinary men."

While the two were talking, someone came over, reached out and picked up the puppet in front of Jiang Chunshi, and looked at it carefully.

"Let's see if there's anyone you like?" Jiang Chunshi hurriedly solicited customers.

"Did you make this puppet, little brother?" The person who came was a man in green clothes, who seemed to be a servant of a wealthy family.

"I did it." Jiang Chunshi nodded.

"Have you ever been to a stall selling puppets in Shanglin Town before?" the boy asked again.

"I've been there, but it was my sister who helped me set up the stall that time, and she helped me sell the puppets that time." Jiang Chunshi felt a little uneasy when he saw the boy asking this question, "Have you bought the puppets last time? Yes.

What’s wrong with the puppets?”

They all came to Deyin Temple, which must be a very bad thing.

Jiang Chunshi's face turned a little pale.

"It's nothing, it's just that my wife has been looking for her. Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the boy shouted into the distance, "Madam, we found it, here!"

After a while, a woman responded and walked quickly to the front.

The woman is about thirty years old, with a dignified and beautiful appearance and a good temperament. Her clothes are also made of fine satin, which makes people feel that she comes from a high family.

And the woman looked anxious and furious.

Jiang Chunshi was so frightened that he couldn't speak at this moment.

"Is...is something wrong?"

Seeing this, Jiang Youcheng hurriedly asked for his nephew, and even looked at the woman in front of him uneasily.

"Don't panic, you two. I'm not here to cause trouble." Mrs. Zheng saw that the two people's expressions were not right, so she opened her mouth to explain, "I just bought some puppets in the town and liked them very much, so I

I’m thinking about buying some more puppets.”

It turned out that I was just here to buy puppets.

Jiang Youcheng and Jiang Chunshi looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are some puppets here. Madam wants those styles." Jiang Chunshi gathered the remaining puppets together slightly.

"These are all needed." Mrs. Zheng only glanced at it and then spoke.

Bought them all?

Jiang Chunshi was surprised and happy, "Then I'll wrap it up for you..."

As he spoke, Jiang Chunshi hurriedly picked up the small cloth bag and prepared to put things in it.

"I just heard from someone below that these puppets were made by you, little brother. It's a coincidence. My family owns a lumber shop in the county and also does carpentry work. The ones I bought in the town were originally

I also let the children play with it, but one day when the child took it to the shop, there were customers who wanted to buy it."

Zheng said, "So I went to the town to look for it again. I found several markets one after another, but I couldn't find any stalls selling puppets. Today I came to Deyin Temple to offer incense, so I thought about letting the people try it.

I kept searching to see if I could find it, but to my surprise, I actually found it.”

"I would also like to ask my little brother, are you willing to do carpentry work and make puppets in my shop in the future? If not, you can sell me the puppet pattern. Can you give me a price?"

When Jiang Chunshi heard this, his eyes almost widened, and then he rubbed his hands nervously and unconfidently, "Is it Qiu Ji, Madam's lumber shop?"

"Exactly." Zheng nodded.

Jiang Chunshi's lips were trembling with excitement.

In the entire county, when it comes to lumber business, the one with the greatest reputation is Qiu Ji.

Not to mention that the lumber business is huge, and the skills of the carpenters there are among the best in the county. The master who Jiang Chunshi learned carpentry from before had been talking about it all day long because he had learned the craft for a few days in Qiuji.

.

Being able to go to Qiu Ji to work as a carpenter was something he could never imagine, let alone Qiu Ji's wife inviting him to work in Qiu Ji.

That’s so shameless!

Jiang Chunshi paced around for a few steps, but explained sheepishly, "I'm really sorry, I really wanted to go to Qiuji to work, but although I made the puppet, the pattern of the puppet was made by my third uncle.

My little sister at home drew them, and I made these puppets under her guidance.”

"Judging from Madam's appearance, she probably wants these puppet patterns mainly. So I can only ask Madam to wait for a while, and when my little sister comes back, you can discuss this matter with her in detail."

"My younger sister, my third aunt, and my wife went to the temple to offer incense. I guess it's time to come back. We shouldn't have to wait too long."

Zheng looked at Jiang Chunshi again.

The clothes were made of coarse cloth, and there was a patch in an inconspicuous place. It looked like the family was not wealthy.

His facial features were regular and he looked like an authentic farmer. When he smiled, he showed a strong sense of honesty. Moreover, he did not take any credit when he spoke or responded, nor did he mean to be greedy for this business.

When talking about his little sister, his tone and demeanor also reveal full pride.

Feel like a trustworthy person.

Mrs. Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Then I will wait here for your little sister."

Seeing this, Jiang Youcheng and Jiang Chunshi gave Zheng a horse they had brought for setting up a stall, and asked Zheng to sit down and wait, so as not to get tired from standing all the time.

Mrs. Zheng didn't mind it either, and even refused Gingko's suggestion to wait on the carriage, and just sat on the horse and waited.

While waiting, I chatted with Jiang Youcheng and Jiang Chunshi for a while.

He knew that they were from Jiangjia Village, and that the little sister Jiang Chunshi was talking about, Jiang Youcheng's daughter, was named Jiang Michia, and she was an extremely smart and clever person.

While they were talking, Jiang Michia and his party came back.

Jiang Chunshi hurriedly introduced Mrs. Zheng and explained her purpose of coming.

"Madam, do you want to buy puppet patterns?" Jiang Michia looked at Mrs. Zheng in front of her.

I have to say that the person in front of me looks exactly like the little girl I bought the puppet last time. The mother and daughter are almost carved from the same mold.

"Exactly." Ms. Zheng said with a smile, "These puppets are really beautiful, and I sincerely want to buy them. As long as the lady is willing to sell the patterns of these puppets, I will definitely give you a price that satisfies you."
