A car accident, our family of three crossed

Zhou Huan then began to talk about the origin of Shuisheng.

"That kid, now that he's talked about it, he's not an insignificant person." Zhou Huan kept it a secret under the expectant eyes of Manager Xu: "Want to know?"

Manager Xu held his breath and thought, if this isn't nonsense, what is it?

"You are such a person, how can you only say half of what you want to say?"

Zhou Huan saw that the more anxious the other party was, the happier he became. "Let me tell you this! Shuisheng is from Shangtang Village in Pingyang County. You've heard of Shangtang Village, right?"

Manager Xu had naturally heard of Shangtang Village, and he had heard even more about the workshop in Shangtang Village. It was said that the painter who drew the blueprints was in Shangtang Village.

Because of this reason, even though the workshop in the capital is much larger than that in Shangtang Village, it is always one step behind Shangtang Village in terms of shipment. By the time the drawings are sent to the capital, Shangtang Village has already shipped the first batch of goods.

"You mean, Shuisheng was working in the workshop in Shangtang Village?"

"That's right. That guy is the backbone of the Shangtang Village workshop. At first, he was just a craftsman with good skills. After the workshop was built, he took in several apprentices, and now they are all masters."

"Now! That kid has already started researching new styles. Some of the styles you are making in your workshop now may be those that the kid came up with!"

After listening to this, Manager Xu went from being shocked and incredulous to suddenly realizing.

No wonder, no wonder the young man can always find various problems in the details during the work process, it turns out that this is what he does.

"This young man is truly remarkable!" Manager Xu praised him sincerely, and then asked in confusion, "Since he was in Shangtang Village and doing fine, why did he come to the capital?"

"I just want to come to the capital so that I can learn more!" Zhou Huan said lightly.

Manager Xu didn't believe it would be so simple. With Shuisheng's skills, he was the only one in the workshop who could teach others. Who could teach him?

Could it be that the workshop in Shangtang Village treated people unfairly?

Thinking of this, Manager Xu's mind suddenly became active. If it was really as he thought, then he had to keep the person.

Shangtang Village treats people unfairly, but his workshop will never do that.

At this time, Manager Xu had completely forgotten that his relative had a fight with someone else this morning, and he kept urging Zhou Huan to tell him more about the Shangtang Village workshop.

Zhou Huan intended to dampen the spirit of his workshop, so he only talked about the good things about the Shangtang Village workshop. Basically, there was nothing bad about it. To name just one of them, the workshops in the capital could not compare with it.

Once a workshop is built, craftsmen and apprentices are widely recruited. There is no need to find a master. As long as the people who enter the workshop are willing to learn, the craftsmen in the workshop will teach them everything they know.

When Manager Xu heard this, he frowned and asked in confusion, "You can learn a craft without becoming a disciple? Will the craftsmen be willing to teach? Aren't they afraid that their craft will be passed on to others?"

Zhou Huan smiled disdainfully and said sarcastically, "I told you that you are narrow-minded, but you are not happy about it."

"As the saying goes, a master can only teach you the way, but you have to practice on your own. Skills cannot be passed on to outsiders, and the prerequisite is to learn all the master's special skills."

After mocking Manager Xu, he went on to mock the old craftsmen in the workshops outside the city, "Let's talk about those old guys in your workshop. They are all hiding their skills, afraid that their skills will be passed on to others. I wonder if they have trained a few promising apprentices?"

Manager Xu could not refute this.

Suddenly, he remembered that when Shuisheng first entered the workshop, he did not hide his skills in front of everyone. When someone asked him about it, the boy said, "Anyone can learn a skill by stealing, but no one can steal what is in the mind."

Thinking about it now, this sentence makes so much sense.

The more he heard about Shuisheng's deeds, the more Manager Xu wanted to poach him and keep him in the capital forever.

"Well, Brother Zhou..."

When Zhou Huan heard his flattering tone and even changed the way he addressed himself, he immediately knew that he was not holding back and quickly interrupted him: "Whatever you want to do, I tell you, it's impossible."

Although his little trick was exposed, Manager Xu was not embarrassed. He smiled and poured wine for Zhou Huan. He did not mention the matter for the time being as there was still a long way to go.

Shuisheng, who had no idea that he was being targeted, was currently sitting in an empty corner, accepting Xianghuan's criticism.

"Are you stupid? Do you have to fight with others for a piece of torn cotton-padded jacket? You are alone, and there are several of them. What if you can't beat them?"

Although she was complaining, her hands were never idle. She was holding a hot egg and applying it to the corners of his mouth.

"Apply it while the eggs are still hot, or they will get cold later."

Shuisheng listened to her teachings, feeling the warmth of the egg on the corners of his mouth, and felt so happy in his heart.

"That's not just some tattered cotton-padded jacket. It's the one you made for me yourself. I've never been willing to wear it! What a pity, the first time I wore it..."

Thinking that he had never been willing to wear it, and it was torn the first time he put it on, he was so angry that he wanted to go back and beat that guy up again. He thought that the beating he had given before was too light.

When Xianghuan heard him say that it was the cotton-padded jacket she had sewn herself, her face turned red and she whispered, "It's torn, so I'll sew you another one."

"That's different. That was the first cotton coat you made for me. It means a lot."

"Well...how about you give me that cotton coat and I'll see if I can fix it."

When Shuisheng heard her words, he was determined to do it and immediately ran back to his yard to get his clothes.

"Wait for me here. I'll be back soon."

He ran out a few steps, then ran back and said, "No, you will be cold if you stay here all the time. Go to the kitchen and wait for me! It's warm there."

"Okay! I understand. Go ahead!"

Xianghuan felt very happy to see how considerate he was, so she followed his instructions and went to the kitchen.
