Chapter 197 Li Erlang is conceited
Ever since the decision to open a shell jewelry shop, Li Yuer began to teach the women in the family how to make jewelry. Zhao also followed suit, and within just a few days, they had made a lot of jewelry.
Li Yuer had used up all the scraps of cloth that he had bought from Liuji Cloth Stake, and Li Meir wanted to ask them to bring some back when they set up their stall.
Li Yuer looked at the jewelry they made and praised them, "You are better than my teacher. Don't worry, I will buy some scraps of cloth tomorrow."
Li Yuer made a rough estimate and found that they had collected at least two hundred pieces of jewelry, which was about right.
“Are you planning to sell it?”
A hint of struggle flashed in Li Mei'er's eyes. "I do want to, but I'm afraid of being imitated. I want to collect some more and sell them together."
Li Yuer nodded and said, "Your idea is good, but how long will it take for you to collect a thousand or ten thousand? It's better to hire someone to do it."
"Hire someone?" Li Mei'er thought for a moment and said, "If I hire someone, the method will be leaked out."
Li Yuer weighed the pros and cons in her mind and said, "Why don't you just ask them to make the base fabric pattern, and you guys do the shell installation. Then sign a confidentiality agreement, and anyone who leaks the method will have to pay compensation."
"This, will they sign it?"
"If you don't want to sign, then find someone who is willing to sign. Don't worry too much. The method will be leaked sooner or later. But I have many styles. I guarantee that our Li family's is the latest and most authentic."
"Okay, I'll discuss it with my aunt and grandma right away."
In the evening, Li Laosan and his friends came back.
"Is there any news from the third brother?" asked Mrs. Cai worriedly after dinner.
Li Laosan shook his head. "People from the gambling house come in and out, but I haven't seen them bring anyone back. Ma Wu has never come out."
If Ma Wu doesn't come out, they won't find a chance to attack.
During the meal, Mrs. Cai noticed that Cai Chengping was absent-minded, so she asked, "Chengping, are you worried about something?"
She wondered in her heart whether Chengping was well-informed and knew the bad news about the Wu father and son.
Mr. Cai and Mrs. Zhao also looked at him worriedly.
Cai Chengping put down the teacup and said, "It's okay. Maybe I'm a little tired from the work these days."
Li Erlang was in high spirits and even ate two extra bowls of rice in the evening.
After everyone else left, Li Erlang ran to the barn in the backyard under the pretext of watching the cows and took out the bag that Zhao Yanyan had given him.
"What good thing is it that was given to me alone?"
When I opened them, I saw a pair of dark blue cloth shoes with thick thousand-layer soles. The uppers were embroidered with golden auspicious cloud patterns and stuffed with cotton. They were warm, light, and very well made.
"Wow! This pair of shoes costs at least several dozen bucks. Not bad. Hey? Anything else?"
There is also a tassel under the shoe, the thread is wrapped with silver silk, and there is space for wearing accessories above the tassel. The knot on the top is flexible and can be adjusted to any size.
"Great! Just when you feel sleepy, someone will give you a pillow."
Li Erlang still hasn't found a suitable match for his whale bone accessories. He has been to jewelry stores several times in the past few days, but hasn't found a suitable tassel. Either the color doesn't match or the knot is not suitable.
This is just right!
Li Erlang looked around and saw that no one saw him, so he packed the things up again and took them back to the east wing where he lived.
Li Laosan and the others were all there, and Li Erlang carefully put the things into his personal wicker box.
The next morning, Li Erlang had an exquisite tassel around his waist, with his whale accessory hanging on it.
"Hey? So biased! Mei'er is so biased!" Li Laosan felt unbalanced as soon as he saw the tassel around his waist.
He pulled over Li Dalang who was loading the truck and said, "Brother Dalang, come and see! Mei'er doesn't want to make a spike for me, but does your brother want one?"
Li Dalang followed the direction of Li Laosan's finger and saw the tassel around Li Erlang's waist.
He was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't have it either!"
Li Laosan was immediately dissatisfied, and said half angrily and half jokingly: "Erlang is good at being sweet-mouthed. Look, the first ear of corn in the family is probably on your waist."
Li Erlang smiled smugly at Li Laosan and was about to make some sarcastic remarks to him, but when he saw Li Dalang, who was looking aggrieved, he suddenly changed his words: "Li Laosan, what nonsense are you talking about! This was not made by Sister Mei'er. This, this was bought by me myself."
Da Lang thought about it and said, "Yes, Third Uncle, even if Mei'er becomes the first daughter, the first one will definitely be given to Yu Bao'er. Everyone knows that she and her sister have the best relationship."
Li Laosan snorted coldly, "You are so conceited! Where did you buy it?"
The ear of corn is indeed beautiful, and it shines faintly in the sun, but it does not have the cheap texture. It is low-key and noble.
How could Li Erlang not know what he was thinking? This was given to him by his sister Yanyan, the only one in the world. If you want it, there is no door, no, there is not even a window.
"Don't tell you!"
When Li Erlang walked past him, he deliberately twisted his waist.
Li Laosan was so angry that his teeth itched and he spat at his back.
"You stinky boy, you are so conceited! I will kill you with all your stinking power!"
Dalang said, "There are only a few shops selling them in this town. If you look for them, you may find them."
Having said that, he continued with his work.
With the ox cart, they naturally no longer needed to use wheelbarrows.
Dahuang was very honest and cooperated with the loading process. Old man Li also secretly fed Dahuang a lot of soybeans.
Old Mrs. Cai had seen it from the window a long time ago, and scolded with a smile: "You old thing! You are still not doing your job properly even when you are old. A handful of beans is not worth your thieving."
When they arrived in the town, the group separated. Li Laosan and his team were still responsible for supervising every move of the casino.
Li Dalang, Lai Zi and Li Erlang were responsible for setting up the stall, while Li Yuer went to the Taoist's stall.
It was still early and the Taoist had not yet opened.
Li Yuer took out a silver ingot and shook it in front of him, and the Taoist's eyes widened.
When his hand was about to touch the silver, Li Yuer quickly took it back.
"You want it? If you want it, do as I say."
The Taoist stroked his beard, coughed lightly, and said seriously: "We agreed that I will not do anything to harm others."
Li Yuer snorted and said, "Don't worry, it's not about harming people, it's about saving people, doing good deeds and accumulating merits."
"what's up?"
Li Yuer came over and briefly explained the situation.
The Taoist frowned and thought for a while before saying, "It's agreed that it won't be less than three taels of silver."
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Fighting with a local witch may offend people easily. Three taels of silver are not worth his escape.
"Don't worry, I'm not short of money. You wait here, we'll close the stall and start the action."
The greedy old face of Ma the Goddess flashed through Li Yuer's mind. This old woman not only made money by asking gods to look at things, but also probably harmed many people.
There is no need to show mercy to such people. If you let the bad guys go, more good people will die.
