Chapter 145: Thriving



Tang Sannan's yard has been very busy recently.

Ever since Erhua and Boss Lu agreed on cooperation and put out the samples, they have received several orders one after another.

There was no time to complete the order, so after much deliberation, I decided to find someone. As soon as the news of Master Tang looking for an apprentice came out, several young men came to the yard the next day, some from this village and some from other villages.

Master Tang asked Erhua to pick two, meaning that he would be in charge of the business from now on.

One of them is called Da Niu. He is tall and strong with dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is full of strength.

One is called Xiao Ma, who is strong and capable, of medium build, smart and capable, and a man with his own ideas.

Both of them were from other villages. The Tang family had some opinions on this point, but Tang Sannan came out to explain and the matter was resolved.

Erhua had his own reasons for not seeking help from within the clan. In short, if he sought help from within the clan, it would likely be difficult to avoid personal relationships, so he might as well seek help from outsiders. He could praise the good and criticize the bad, which was refreshing.

Boss Lu from Yuandundun comes here twice a month. The Erhua family has too much business to handle, and other people are jealous.

In fact, Erhua and his father-in-law had already discussed it. Now that the business has just started, it is not certain whether it can be done well. They don’t want to take risks with everyone.

When it is ripe, everyone will naturally share a share.

Some people are happy about their rosewood business, some are envious, and of course some are jealous.

Which hexagram does Widow Zhang belong to?

Yes, of course I am jealous of that hexagram.

"I didn't expect that the lame man's family is so capable!" Widow Zhang walked past the door and headed towards the village head, muttering to herself as she walked.

"I don't understand how that cripple got such great fortune!"

She kept talking about that lame man, and people who didn't know her would think that she and Luo Zhen had a grudge in their previous life.

Just as she reached the village entrance, a four-wheeled vehicle drove up beside her, sending dust flying everywhere. Widow Zhang waved her hand to sweep the area around her face and cursed:

"What kind of wicked guy is it? He thinks he's so great just to have a car!"

Just as he finished speaking, the car door opened and a fat, big-eared man got out.

The man looked a bit old, but not too old, and could fit into a suit.

Both of them were shocked, and one of them thought that a big boss had come to this remote place!

Another thought, there is a middle-aged woman in the wilderness!

When their eyes met, Widow Zhang's legs softened and her tone became more coquettish.

"Hey, where did the boss come from? Who are you looking for?"

The boss stroked the hairs on his forehead and said with a laugh, "I came to see Master Tang to order a set of furniture."

Master Tang? Which Master Tang? Every Master Tang in Tangli Village knows a little about rosewood carving.

Widow Zhang rolled her eyes and said, "Come with me. I'll take you to Master Tang's house."

Tang Jianming was quietly carving a small object at home. There wasn't much work, it just happened that he was busy every day and didn't have to rush.

"Master Tang——"

Widow Zhang's voice was heard outside. He frowned. They hadn't spoken to each other since the last time. Why did she come again?

She turned around and pointed inside and said, "Look, Master Tang is in there!"

After saying that, she twisted her waist and walked into the house with the boss.

"Master Tang, I brought you a big business deal~"

Widow Zhang's smile was as beautiful as a flower, and the boss thought her winding tone of voice was quite pleasant!

Tang Jianming looked up, and the fat boss took a look and said, wow, this male master Tang San is much younger than he thought.

"Hello, Master Tang!"

He stretched out his chubby hand. Tang Jianming looked confused and stood up mechanically to shake hands.

"I've heard a lot about you! Master Tang, I'm here to order a set of furniture."

Wow, what Widow Zhang said was right. It’s really a big deal. He basically has everything, including a bed, sofa, coffee table, chest of drawers, and wardrobe.

"You're ordering so many things at once. Would you like to see my craftsmanship first?"

Tang Jianming is still pragmatic in this regard. Since it is his first time taking on such a big business, he has to be cautious.

"Master Tang, how could I not trust your reputation? No need to look, just these things in your room are enough!"

The fat boss spoke with a grunt, and Widow Zhang covered her mouth and almost laughed.

As Tang Jianming listened, he felt more and more that something was wrong. Why did he feel like this person was looking for Uncle Tang Sannan?

"This...are you looking for..."

"Oh!" Widow Zhang leaned closer to the fat boss and said, "Boss, you have a good eye. You can recognize our Master Tang's craftsmanship at a glance. Just wait and see. Our Master Tang will definitely not let you down!"

When he saw the woman approaching, he smiled and went to greet her. He smelled the scent of sesame oil wafting over. Her face was red and shiny, even though she hadn't drunk any alcohol, as if she was drunk.

Tang Jianming turned his head away, out of sight, out of mind.

After Widow Zhang sent the fat boss out and came back, Tang Jianming was carving again.

"Why, I brought you such a big business, and you didn't even thank me."

"I think the man is looking for my uncle, not me."

Tang Jianming did not stop working and did not even look up. Widow Zhang pouted and said:

"No, it's not no. Did he say he was looking for Tang Sannan? He only said he was looking for Master Tang. Tang Sannan is Master Tang, aren't you too?"

Tang Jianming didn't say anything. Widow Zhang was dissatisfied and walked up to him and snatched the carving knife.

"What are you doing? This is so dangerous!"

Widow Zhang smiled and said, "You haven't told me how to thank me yet!"

Tang Jianming took out a few bills from the deposit given by the fat boss, but she blocked them with her hands and said, "I don't want this."

"After I deliver the goods and get the money, I'll give you some more."

"I said I don't want money!"

“…Nothing else, nothing else can be given!”

"Why can't I give it to you? You're both divorced, and neither of you is married..."

"Okay, let's go back quickly."

"Tang Jianming!" Widow Zhang screamed, her voice shrill. "Are you really going to do this to me? Back then, the two of us... the two of us... I forced you to do it. Tell me, did you come to me on your own?"

"I... I've already said it, I was wrong! How about this, I'll finish this order and give you all the money I make as compensation, okay?"

"In the end, it's all about money!"

“…”

Widow Zhang's eyes were red and she pursed her lips to prevent her tears from escaping.

She glared at Tang Jianming fiercely and rushed out.

Erhua happened to come out to pour water and saw Widow Zhang coming out of Tang Jianming's house from afar.

He wondered why the two of them hadn't broken up yet, and couldn't help but sigh, "Even a hero can't resist the temptation of a beautiful woman!"

On second thought, what kind of hero is Tang Jianming!

After pouring the water and walking into the house, Erhua met Widow Zhang. He couldn't avoid her and could only nod to her politely.

But I saw that her eyes were red, her face was aggrieved, and her feet were moving forward vigorously, driven by a feeling of resentment.

Widow Zhang opened her mouth to greet him, but then lowered her head to wipe her eyes, feeling momentarily embarrassed.
