Chapter 236 Candle
Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng drove a ox cart to the town to see how the two shops were being renovated, and they also wanted to go to a carpenter's shop in the town to customize some furniture.
Although there are people in the village who can make furniture, the furniture they make is not very exquisite. It is a busy time now and there are only a few spare hands in the village.
The furniture he wants to make is some furniture with a modern style.
Just like the young man in the carpenter's shop now, who is marveling at a drawing drawn by Jiang Ci.
This is a drawing of a sofa.
"This thing is great. If you put a cotton pad on it, it would be so comfortable."
"I saw something like this somewhere else by chance, so I wanted to see if you could make it."
"I'll take care of that. Come in and see if you need anything else."
Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng entered the store, where there were samples of cabinets and tables.
"These are the most popular styles right now. If you're not satisfied, you can go to the back and have a look. We have others in the backyard."
Jiang Ci pointed to a large bed and said, "This bed is made of your finest wood."
Jiang Ci found a drawing in her hand and said, "Make the headboard according to this style."
After seeing this, he was even more impressed by this idea. In this way, when he sat on the bed with his back leaning against it, there would be no blockage.
"Okay, this is simpler than the sofa just now, and it can be made."
The two of them picked out other cabinets, tables and benches, and Jiang Ci drew the patterns that needed to be adjusted on the drawings and handed them to them.
The young man looked at the drawings and said, "If you are not in a hurry, these can be completed in 20 days, or no later than a month."
This is a big customer, so of course we can't keep them waiting too long.
"Okay, we're not in a hurry."
Then they went to the restaurant. When they arrived, they saw that the door of the restaurant was open and there was no one inside. When they walked inside, they could see that it had been renovated and cleaned.
It has been such a long time, and only part of the decoration has been modified, so the decoration was completed quickly.
At this time, two people came down from the stairs. At first, they were very alert when they heard the noise downstairs, but when they saw that it was them, they greeted them enthusiastically.
"The two bosses are here. We have just checked everything and there are no problems. Please check if there are any problems or areas that need to be corrected."
"It looks well decorated. Let's take a closer look."
Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng looked it over carefully and confirmed that there was nothing to change.
The tables, chairs, benches and other things here were also sold to them at a low price. Last time, I asked them to plane off the top layer of wood on the tables, chairs and benches, carve patterns in some places that needed carving, and then brush a layer of tung oil on them.
Looking at these tables, chairs and benches now, each one of them looks very new, as if they were newly bought.
The private rooms above were also designed according to his requirements and they are all good.
The private room just looks very empty, so after getting rid of the smell, you can put some decorative items inside.
Then they went to the milk tea shop in front together, where the outline of a milk tea shop was already in place.
The decoration team we found has quite a lot of people, and it is estimated that it will be completed in two or three days.
Now their restaurant should find a few chefs and teach them how to cook new dishes.
Anyone can make milk tea since they don’t know how to do it anyway, and it’s not as difficult as cooking.
"Where can we find a chef for our restaurant?"
"Write a recruitment message and post it outside the restaurant. Then we'll go to the dental clinic in this town to see if there's anyone who can cook. I feel like based on Ah Ci's menu, anyone who's a good cook can run the entire restaurant."
"As you said, my recipe is so amazing."
"It's amazing." He really thought so.
In fact, Jiang Ci felt that it was feasible. There was no need to hire a chef, and there was no need to worry about them running away. It would also be easier to discipline them by teaching them how to cook those dishes. The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
"Then let's do it."
When they were leaving the town, they happened to see a carriage parked on the side of the road in front of them. Why did it look more and more familiar?
Jiang Ci patted Lin Jingsheng's arm and said, "Is that our carriage?"
Lin Jingsheng followed the line of sight and said, "It's true. Dad and Mom are back."
They drove over in a donkey cart, and Lin Shan came back with the things he had just bought in his hands.
Ye Wan, who was sitting in the carriage, got out and saw Lin Jingsheng and Jiang Ci who were also coming towards her.
"Mom and Dad, you guys came back so soon. You didn't even stay there for two more days."
"We don't know where to go, so next time we can go together and you can take us along."
They drove home one after another.
Uncle Lan and his wife, who were sitting at the door making toothbrushes, as well as the two aunts from the other two families, saw Ye Wan and Lin Shan coming back and came up to talk to them.
Auntie Lan looked at Ye Wan who had just gotten off the carriage and asked, "How is it? What does the city look like?"
"As soon as I arrived at the city, I saw the majestic city gate. Far away from the city gate was a road paved with bluestone slabs..."
She was also one of the few women in the village who had been to the provincial capital, so she couldn't help feeling a little proud when someone asked her about it.
Her sons were very capable and Ci Ge'er made enough money for her to go to the provincial capital. Jingchen was studying in the provincial capital, which was another reason for her to go there.
At home, Lin Jingxuan surrounded Lin Shan and asked him what the city was like and what his second brother's academy was like.
While Lin Shan was unloading things from the carriage, he said to Lin Jingxuan, "There are many prosperous streets in the city, and many of the things sold on the streets are things I have never seen before. The academy is really big, occupying an entire hill..."
After hearing this introduction, Lin Jingxuan felt envious and curious. She also wanted to go to the provincial capital and visit the academy.
She shook Lin Shan's arm and wailed, "I want to go see it too! What a pity!"
"I'll take you with me next time. Have you eaten a lot of delicious food at home these days?"
This immediately opened up Lin Jingxuan's chatterbox, "That's right, Brother Ci made a lot of delicious dishes and drinks."
When I think of the taste of those dishes now, my mouth can’t help but drool and I can’t help swallowing.
"This is for you." Lin Shan took something out of the backpack.
"New clothes!"
Lin Jingxuan happily took the neatly folded goose yellow clothes, then carefully opened it and took a look.
"It's a skirt." He opened it and saw the full view of the dress.
"so beautiful!"
"Try it on and see if it looks good."
"it is good!"
When Ye Wan and Lin Shan were walking on the street, they were thinking about bringing something back for Lin Jingxuan. When she came, she made a fuss about coming and coaxed her to stay at home so that they could bring her a gift back to make her happy.
Seeing a tailor shop on the street, they went in to take a look. They saw many styles of clothes that were not available in their town, so they picked out a nice skirt.
After a while, Lin Jingxuan came out wearing this dress.
When Jiang Ci came out of their room, she saw Lin Jingxuan jumping around in her new dress.
"So lovely!"
Lin Jingxuan turned around and saw Jiang Ci, then turned around again, "This dress is so beautiful."
"Our Xuanxuan is pretty, so her clothes look good."
Lin Jingxuan covered her face with her hands, feeling embarrassed by Jiang Ci's praise.
Ye Wan didn't chat much with the people outside before coming in. He couldn't wait to share with his family what they bought in the city.
"Oh, Xuanxuan has put it on. It looks so good on her!"
Ye Wan took out a few things from her backpack and placed them on the table.
"I bought some nice candles and replaced all the ones we had at home."
Jiang Ci picked one up and took a look. There was a curved handle between the base and the place where the candle was placed, which made it more convenient to carry it around.
Outside the groove for placing the candles, there is a circle of lotus petals, which is not sure whether it is made of iron or brass, and there are exquisite patterns on the petals.
Jiang Ci counted and bought eight candles in total. The circle of decorative petals next to them were different.
"This is beautiful, much better than what we have at home now."
They are still using the small lamp that was used to hold the oil lamp. It’s functional, but not very beautiful. Compared to this one... well, there’s no comparison.
