Chapter 166
In the evening, when Xiao Chuan returned home, his third aunt was waiting for him with a smile.

"By the way, Chuan'er, do you still have that makeup mirror?"

It turned out that the third aunt went out early in the morning to visit Dugu's houses.

Today, when I was chatting with my sister-in-law, I inadvertently took out the makeup mirror to touch up my makeup, which immediately attracted the attention of all the ladies, and they borrowed it to look in the mirror.

The third aunt became the focus, and her heart was as sweet as drinking a bowl of honey.

Mrs. Wufang, who always competed with her third aunt, also had her third sister-in-law. Let her go back and ask Xiao Chuan. Make sure to get her a make-up mirror.

The third aunt said expectantly: "Chuan'er, do you still have a makeup mirror? If so, how many aunts will you sell?"

Xiao Chuan pretended to be embarrassed: "Third aunt, I still have a few cosmetic mirrors in my hand, but I want to save them for a good price in the future so that I can get married."

The third aunt heard the words and said: "Chuan'er, who sells your mirror? Your aunts will not want you for nothing. I have already promised them. If you think of a way, you might as well sell it to your relatives." Bar."

Xiao Chuan pretended to be helpless and said, "Chuan'er listens to Third Aunt in everything."

The third aunt was overjoyed and said: "Good boy, this time you have saved face for the third aunt, and the third aunt can't lose you. The third aunt will definitely sell you a good price."

After finishing speaking, the third aunt took a few cosmetic mirrors, and excitedly went to find some sisters-in-law.

Seeing the third aunt leaving, Mother Chuan also came over and smiled awkwardly at Xiao Chuan.

Xiao Chuan said: "Mum, just tell me what you have to say, don't laugh at your son, you're making me laugh."

Chuan's mother said: "Son, do you still have your makeup mirror? My mother went out today and saw a few sisters, and they all asked."

Xiao Chuan took out five makeup mirrors, smiled wryly and said, "Give it to your mother, I can't sell it cheap."

Mother Chuan said happily: "Mom understands, I want to save money for you to marry a wife, and Mother will not spend you a penny."

After finishing speaking, Mother Chuan took the makeup mirror and happily went out to sell mirrors.

Xiao Chuan shook his head and smiled alone.

At this moment, the dog came in to report that there was a visitor.

"welcome."

It turned out to be Yuntai.

Xiao Chuan said indifferently: "Young Master Yun, what's the matter?"

Yuntai was thick-skinned enough, pretending not to see it, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chuan, my younger sister got the makeup mirror from you yesterday. She likes it very much and wants to buy more."

Xiao Chuan snorted coldly, and said, "Hmph, you lied to me yesterday that that mountain is really a rocky mountain, you can't even plant trees, no."

Yuntai said: "Mr. Chuan misunderstood Yun, although the stone mountain is full of stones, there are mines underneath."

Xiao Chuan asked suspiciously: "Is there a mine? What kind of mine?"

Yuntai said: "It is said that it is coal. Someone dug iron ore there more than ten years ago, but the owner of the mine died in the war, and the mine has been abandoned. If the eldest son is not short of money this time, he will definitely not bring it. changed."

Xiao Chuan deliberately pretended to have suddenly realized, and said, "Oh, it turned out to be like this, thank you Mr. Yun for reminding me."

Yuntai said: "Young Master Chuan, you are being polite. It is because Yun didn't explain clearly beforehand, so Young Master Chuan misunderstood."

But Yuntai smiled secretly in his heart: "Boy, it's best that you go to mine and bring in a large sum of money! If there is a mine, the eldest son will take advantage of you?"

Xiao Chuan said: "To tell the truth, Mr. Yun, I still have a few makeup mirrors in my hand, but I can't change them for the future to give to my wife."

Yuan Duantai hurriedly said: "Young Master Chuan, this time it's for buying, not for exchange."

Xiao Chuan said: "Not for sale."

Yuntai stretched out three fingers and said, "Yun gave 300 taels."

Xiao Chuan shook his head and said, "1000 taels."

Yuntai added two more fingers and said, "500 taels."

Xiao Chuan made a horoscope and said, "Less than 800 taels, no discussion."

Yuntai's mental price was one thousand. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Okay, deal, I want to buy five makeup mirrors. I'll go back and withdraw the money now."

Xiao Chuan said: "Young Master Yun, let's make an agreement that we only sell five cosmetic mirrors, and we don't have any more."

As Yuntai walked out, he said: "Okay, Mr. Chuan, you must keep it for me."

Looking at Yun Taiyuan's back, Xiao Chuan shook his head and said to himself: "The rich are really lucky."

The dog came over and said, "My lord, everything in the store is normal today, and it is estimated that it will open in half a month."

Xiao Chuan said: "Well, in half a month, the vegetables in the greenhouse will be harvested, and the time is just right."

The dog said: "Your Majesty, this is the money earned by the bricklayers on the kang."

Xiao Chuan said: "Go and tell those two bricklayers in a while, and you will be paid at a monthly rate. In addition, ask them to hire a few more bricklayers to fight for more kangs and build a stove. Sir, the charcoal I have already found can replace charcoal for fire Warm up."

The dog said: "My lord, there used to be charcoal sellers in Chang'an City, but it is not safe to burn coal. Every winter, people are killed by coal smoke, so ordinary people seldom use coal for heating."

Xiao Chuan said: "It doesn't matter, our kang and flue wall have flues, and the stove is placed outside the bedroom to light the fire, so the soot does not enter the bedroom. In addition, sir, I invented honeycomb coal. In the future, rich people will burn large lumps of coal, and ordinary people can burn honeycomb coal. When the iron ore is mined again, iron stoves and chimneys can be built, and the people in Chang'an City can use coal for heating this winter."

The dog said: "Okay, my lord, I will arrange it now."

Xiao Chuan said: "Dog, don't worry. From now on, the old bricklayer will be responsible for the work of laying the kang. You should concentrate on digging coal. In the future, a large amount of coal will be needed to open a steel factory."

In the evening, Third Aunt and Mother Chuan happily brought back 8000 taels of silver. Xiao Chuan gave Third Aunt 500 taels for running errands, and Third Aunt happily accepted it after some excuses.

Yuntai also sent 4000 taels of silver, took away five makeup mirrors, and left happily.

Because he told his sister that it was 1000 taels, and he made 500 taels of silver as soon as he changed hands.

Xiao Chuan happily put the money into the system space warehouse.

Xiao Chuan ate hastily, and left the city while there was no curfew.

It was already dark, and there were no pedestrians outside the city. Xiao Chuan rode his motorcycle and drove towards Qujiang Pond at lightning speed.

When they arrived at Qujiangchi, the villagers had already finished their work. After dinner, the village was dark. The tired farmers entered their dreams early with the longing for a better life tomorrow.

This night, many people were dreaming, dreaming of their new master, Lord Dugu smiling at them.

And the hard-working Lord Dugu is driving a forklift, digging canals.

Building canals is the tradition of the Chinese ancestors. I must repair the Qujiangchi canal before the river rises.

Then you can plant trees and build villas!
The next morning, after breakfast, Xiao Lizheng and the villagers came to Qujiang Pond, and they were all shocked. Yesterday, the whole village had to work hard to dig more than 100 meters, a shallow layer. Unexpectedly, overnight, the river had become a pond. It is as long as ten feet wide and ten feet deep.

Xiao Lizheng asked doubtfully, "My lord, did the army do all this last night?"

With dark circles under his eyes, Xiao Chuan yawned and said, "Yes, our village has too few laborers, so Sir, I will ask the prime minister to send troops to help."

Xiao Lizheng immediately flattered him, saying: "My lord, you really have a lot of face."
