idyllic tranquility

Li Daner's embarrassment can be seen by He Ning, although he does not agree with getting something for nothing, and he is not willing to ask for trouble to encourage such an unhealthy trend.Theoretically, Li Dan'er is doomed to be disappointed from the price tag; but starting from the four words "humanity and sophistication", there is a lot to be done.

He Ning will not refuse the silver delivered to his door, but he also does not want his works to shut out these happy poor people.After all, the original purpose of making skates is to bring happiness, not to use money to divide another class of watershed.

"Skates, I don't have any stock on hand right now, and I only have one pair at home. And I'm making a new gadget recently, and I don't have much free time. If Ms. Li can offer a price that makes my heart beat, I can." Make time for her."

Hearing what He Ning said, Li Dan'er almost knew that his side was out of luck, but fortunately, Ms. Li was still able to do business.

"The price is easy to negotiate, Miss Li will definitely satisfy you."

Having said that, He Ning still found loss and bitterness from the other party's immature concealment, but didn't say much.Although the rudiment of an idea had already appeared in his mind, it was not complete enough, and it was not the time to say it.

The three of them arrived at the threshing ground of Li's family while they were talking. Before they entered, they heard Li Xinran's laughter like the crowing of a yellow warbler coming from inside.

Once entering the threshing ground, the first thing that catches the eye is a half-grown girl dressed in turquoise, similar to a Hufu riding and archery outfit, like a dancing butterfly, in the spacious and flat threshing ground. Glide freely.

After taking a closer look, Li Zhan and two little girls dressed as maids were still standing in the arena. They were about ten years old. One was holding a scented handkerchief and a water bag, and the other had a food box by his leg. They stood obediently. while cheering.

"Miss is so fast~"

"Miss is really amazing! I'm much more stable than yesterday."

When Li Xinran noticed He Ning and the three of them, he slowed down and finally stopped in front of the three of them.

"He Ning, what do you think of Miss Ben's skating?"

As they got closer, He Ning found that there were a few scratches on Li Xinran's exposed wrist. Obviously, this young lady suffered a lot in order to learn roller skating well.It seems that I underestimated this little girl before, after all, a person who is willing to be cruel to me will not be a simple character in the future.

"Miss is not afraid of hard practice, so she naturally improves rapidly and skates very well."

"Really? According to you, I've learned how to skate, so it's not interesting. Why don't you compete with me and see which one of us skates better?"

He Ning has already noticed that Li Xinran is going to play new tricks, otherwise, just send someone to talk to him about buying skates, and there is no need to send him over.

But in the eyes of He Ning, a veteran driver who has been skating for so many years, the opponent's challenge is really ridiculous.However, he didn't want to get burned, so he could only quickly divert the attention of the little bully.

"Miss, in fact, you haven't experienced the greatest joy of ice skating. Ice skating is not interesting for two people, but it is interesting when there are more people. It can be used as a multi-person competition. You can compete with others. Choose a venue to set up obstacles, and then compete to see who can safely cross the obstacles in the shortest time; if you are playing with girls, you can also incorporate some dance moves on the flat ground to see who can play more tricks, or cooperate with musical instruments Dance while skating. Moreover, when there are more people playing and the lady skates well, she can also be the leader of a dragon dance and lead a group of people to skate together, which is more fun!"

At this time, He Ning was like a wolf with a big tail who lured a little white rabbit, bewitching the competitive little white rabbit opposite with his words, and lured her step by step into the plot he designed.

"It's really great to play like this. He Ning, I want you to go back and make me a few more pairs of skates, the more the better."

Sure enough, the little white rabbit who lacked experience in the world was quickly distracted and obediently jumped into the script set by He Ning.

"Okay, miss, no problem, but the price, we'd better agree in advance."

"Price is not a problem, you can talk to Li Zhan."

In the end, He Ning accepted Li Xinran's order at a price of one tael per pair.

This price is already very expensive. A cradle of average quality like that produced by the He family only sells for [-] Wen, while a pair of skates made of ordinary materials can be sold for [-] Wen (one tael of silver = [-] Wen).

The reason why there is such a huge contrast is that the rigid demand for skates is very low, which is only an entertainment product that a small number of people need, and it is even more dispensable for ordinary people.In contrast, the cradle is much more practical, and ordinary people with better economic conditions can generate demand, and are willing to buy it for more than half a tael for the good development of the next generation.

With the temptation of money, He Ning felt that he was full of motivation again, but he did not forget the lessons of the previous days. He strictly followed the set schedule every day and resumed a normal and healthy routine.

After exercising in the morning, eat breakfast, and then study the drum car.In the afternoon, I spend my time making skates. In the evening, after dinner, I read a book before going to sleep.

In the afternoon, sometimes his father He Dazhu and his younger uncle He Daxing would help He Ning make skates after finishing the work at hand.Even so, He Ning's progress is still not fast, he needs a fixed and capable assistant, the best candidate for this is He An.

Firstly, He An often followed him and was in the He family. He is familiar with the basic processing of wood, and he must be able to get started quickly; secondly, He An is nimble, diligent and capable, and is very obedient. best choice.

But He An has to do a lot of chores every day, and the autumn harvest will be in two days, so everyone will be busy without touching the ground.He Ning wondered whether he should persuade his grandfather to hire part-time workers for this autumn harvest.

He Ning, who was concerned, found a time to grind on Uncle He while Mrs. He was around. Sure enough, he succeeded in persuading Uncle He, who was in charge of the family, to invite a laborer to come to the house for autumn harvest.

Thinking of the group of half-grown children, He Ning didn't waste his labor, and promised that they could barter for work, that is, by helping He's family harvest in autumn, they could exchange skates.

The He family didn't have a lot of land, and the part-time workers hired by Uncle He plus a dozen brats had finished harvesting the crops in the He family's land in less than two days.

As a result, the He family paid less than two taels of silver for the employment fee and two pairs of skates, and had the most leisurely autumn harvest ever.

And He Ning also successfully obtained a hard-working, capable and multi-functional assistant.Working together with He An, the progress of the work was fast, probably just after the harvest in autumn, the two of them completed six pairs, plus the four pairs made by He Ning before, it was a whole.

Ten pairs of roller skates were handed over to Li Zhan in exchange for ten taels of silver. He Ning reaped the real first bucket of gold in this life.

According to the He family's custom, He Ning handed over five taels of silver to Mrs. He.

The He family has not yet separated. Although Mrs. He's housekeeper is eccentric, she is not a mean elder who doesn't understand the rules.She set the rules early on, stipulating that the personal income earned by each member of the He family would be [-] to [-] cents from the public income.For example, before the sons went out to do part-time jobs, half of the money earned by the daughter-in-law selling embroidery had to be handed over to Mrs. He, and the remaining half was kept by herself.Such a share ratio is enough to be called a big belly in Beili Village.

In fact, He Ning knew that even if he did not hand in the five taels of silver, no one in the He family would have any objections.But he can't rely on the elders' preference to make an exception and break the rules of the family.There is no problem in doing this in a short period of time, but it will definitely bury hidden dangers in the future.

So, when He Ning got the money, he consciously handed over half of it.

Seeing that her precious grandson can earn so much money at such a young age, Mrs. He was both pleasantly surprised and distressed. She was happy for her grandson, but she refused to accept the silver taels handed over by He Ning.It's not enough for me to pay myself, so how can I accept money from my good grandson?

Mrs. He is determined, but He Ning is not easy to change her mind. Seeing that Mrs. He refused to accept it, she played a trick, put the money bag into Mrs. He's hand, turned around and ran away without a trace.

Mrs. He is getting old, so she can't race with her good grandson, so she can only put away the money bag, and take it back to the house, but she didn't put it together with the money she saved before, but put it in a separate place.

Well, it seems that He Ning's move is just another bank to open an account and save money.

For the remaining five taels, He Ning kept two taels for backup, and the rest was handed over to He An for storage, and the small treasury in the cabinet finally had some income.
