Chapter 806: Chapter 806 Ran Out of Titles_1
Tong Sanlang stood to one side, understanding Qiao Xiaomai’s intent.
Here, almost every man in the countryside could do basic carpentry, and once the tricycle was introduced, it would be a hit. Those who bought it would quickly master the simple technology.
Once the technique was mastered and they knew how to make it, they definitely wouldn’t buy it anymore.
So, Qiao Xiaomai ant to do like with the mooncakes, stock up on a bunch beforehand and then sell them all at once.
In doing so, they would need a large labor force to produce the big batch of tricycles. The guard force was full of young, strong lads, close by and with ti on their hands, making them perfect for the job.
“Let’s first create the prototype,” Tong Sanlang said.
...
He recounted the so-called “anecdotes” that Shopkeeper He had concocted, which made Qiao Xiaomai’s head spin, as she also felt a trace of fear.
It would be embarrassing if Yang Wenxiao had heard these lines of poetry.
It could even lead to trouble.
“Hey, we need to be more careful in the future when showing off anything,” she said, patting her chest, still feeling a little frightened.
Having two transmigrators in the sa ti and space was not necessarily a good thing.
However, this ti Yang Wenxiao hadn’t approached her, which ant he must not have heard the poetry.
With that thought, she quickly put the matter to the back of her mind and urged Tong Sanlang to get on with the tricycle research.
This matter was now the top priority for the coming days.
The two of them, engrossed in their research at the warehouse, even called Qiao Dami over.
On learning that they were going to make him a tricycle, Qiao Dami beca ecstatic, unwilling to leave the warehouse.
Qiao Changshun ca over for a look and then turned and walked away.
As he left, it was evident he had sothing to say but held back.
Yes, he wanted to bring up Qiao Qinghe.
He had intended to ntion it earlier, after the winter wheat planting, but back then they were busy making mooncakes, so he stayed silent.
Now that the mooncakes were finished and Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang were onto the tricycles…
Forget it, he wouldn’t dampen their spirits by ntioning Qiao Qinghe. Since getting married, this was the first ti he’d seen the two this relaxed and happy.
As a father, Qiao Changshun felt sorry for Tong Sanlang and Qiao Xiaomai, but there were also tis he couldn’t bring himself to feel that way.
That afternoon, Tong Tiehu drove an oxcart over.
Zhu Hongyun was pregnant and in the midst of morning sickness, finding no taste in anything she ate, and usually vomiting it all up soon after eating, rapidly losing weight in just a few days.
This made Tong Er’lang terribly distressed, and he promptly went to find Tong Tiehu, hoping to get so silver to buy so nourishing food for Zhu Hongyun.
Although Tong Tiehu didn’t think much of Zhu Hong, with her carrying a child of the Tong Family, he gave Tong Er’lang ten taels silver for the sake of the child.
Ten taels silver was no small sum; for other expecting mothers in the village, it might be enough to nourish them through five or six pregnancies.
Tong Tiehu originally thought it would last them a couple of months, but after just two days of Tong Er’lang driving the oxcart around town with Zhu Hongyun, they spent all ten taels.
They had feasted and drunk lavishly at the Extre Flavors.
With the silver gone, they would certainly ask for more.
Tong Tiehu gave another ten taels and reminded them to spend it wisely, but the couple quickly squandered it again.
Without silver and with Zhu Hongyun still vomiting, Tong Er’lang had to ask again.
Tong Tiehu, however, did not plan to give any more, as he himself didn’t have much silver left. After giving away twenty taels to help Tong Er’lang, Li Rou and Tong Dami were watching.
[Thinking of titles is always such a headache…]
