Chapter 228 Buying Furniture
The group ate and drank happily.
Liu Caixia began to arrange the following matters.
"We won't be going back to the village this afternoon. Let's go to the county town first and look for places to buy furniture, like beds and chairs. Then we'll go to Renyazi to see if there's a cheap mule cart. We also need to find a place to stay at night."
Liu Hao said: "Why don't we go to the Wei family's yard tonight? They have three main rooms, and the old couple lives in one. We can squeeze in and start cleaning the room after they leave tomorrow morning. It can also save one night's accommodation fee."
"This is a good idea. Although the two Wei family members seem to be good people, we still have to be on guard. In case that disappointing son of his comes back, we can recognize him and prevent him from causing trouble in the future."
"Then let's go there after we finish our work this afternoon, and buy some quilts and other things. We'll need to buy them later anyway."
"Let's go."
Liu Caixia thought that they had to buy them anyway, and they would also have to buy them when they moved. When they took the boat before, they used things on the boat, and they didn’t need them when staying at the inn, so they didn’t bring quilts and other things, and just carried a simple luggage.
The things in the space cannot be taken out directly, they can only be used secretly.
Furniture shops and dental shops are not located on this main street.
So Liu Caixia led people to stroll from the West Street first, and finally walked to the East Street. The Wei family’s house was on the East Street.
There are many houses on this street, and not every house has a shop, so business is not easy to do.
The main businesses are concentrated on the main street in the center.
"Ma'am, that family is a carpenter."
After walking for a quarter of an hour, Li Yao pointed to a house and said.
Looking in the direction he pointed, I saw that the door was open and there were a few chairs placed at the door.
"how do you know?"
"I helped move things in the city before."
"Not bad. It's no wonder that we have stayed in the county for so long. Let's go and take a look."
When you walk to the door and look inside, you can see a room. There are some furniture on one side of the room. There is a corridor leading to the backyard, where some wood is placed. The weather is pretty good, so some of the not-so-dry wood should be moved out to dry and breathe.
There was no one inside. Liu Caixia looked at the people around her and finally looked at Li Yao. Li Yao quickly understood and walked to the door and knocked: "Is anyone home?"
"Someone, someone."
After a while, a man came out. He looked to be in his twenties and there were some sawdust on his clothes.
"Sir, do you want to see the furniture? Please come in."
While inviting the guest into the house, he introduced: "My family has been doing carpentry in the county for many years. My grandfather has been doing carpentry since then. Our family's carpentry work is well-known throughout the county. What would you like to buy?"
The group followed into the backyard, where there were three main rooms, two east wing rooms, an ear room and a kitchen.
The other side is connected to the courtyard wall next door. There is a rain-proof corridor next to the wall. People living in the main house can walk to the front through the corridor on rainy days.
There are various kinds of wood of different sizes placed in the middle yard.
There was an old man pushing a planer in the main room in the middle of the main house. After looking at Liu Caixia and the others, he continued to work. There was also a young man helping him. The young man looked younger than the person who opened the door.
Liu Caixia said directly: "We want beds and cabinets. Are there any ready-made styles here that you can show us? When I came in, I only saw some tables, chairs and benches, but no large furniture."
"Sure, you can call me Da Yi. My father is Lao Yi. I also have a younger brother who doesn't study anymore. He's an apprentice now and is called Xiao Yi. People outside call us that. Some even add a carpenter at the back. It's up to the guests, you can call us whatever you want. Come with me, I'll show you the finished bed and some other furniture."
"Thank you, Master Dayi."
When Da Yi heard this, he was delighted. Few people called him "Master". Most people called him "Master Lao Yi". He had only been a master for two years. Finally, someone called him "Master". He was so happy.
"We have two ready-made beds here, but one has already been ordered. We will deliver them tomorrow. There are also some cabinets and dressing tables. Madam, you can take a look first. If you have a style you want, you can also bring the drawings and we will make it accordingly. As long as the style is not too complicated, my father will have no problem with it. Don't worry about the prices, they are absolutely fair. We are all doing business with integrity."
Master Dayi took them to a room next to the main house, which was filled with furniture of all sizes, and a bed with pillows, cups and other things. It seemed that someone slept here at night.
"My younger brother lives in this room. There are more people in the family now, and the room is really not enough. Madam, please don't be surprised. Madam, take a look at this bed and this dressing table. They are all popular styles in the county, and there are also these wardrobes."
After Liu Caixia came in, she looked at the furniture generously, touching here and there, and found that the furniture was almost the same in size, without so many fancy and complicated decorations. There were some small carvings, but they were all polished very smoothly. The surface should be coated with a layer of tung oil for anti-corrosion.
Liu Caixia looked at the two beds here. Both were made of solid wood. There were four bed frames at the four legs of the bed, which should be used to hang bed curtains. There was a beam above one of the beds, but one of the beams was not hung up.
"This bed has been ordered. We will deliver it to your door tomorrow morning. We will remove the four bedposts to facilitate transportation. We will install it together with the crossbeam after it arrives. For people in the city who buy furniture, it will be delivered to their door for free. For villages outside the city, we will charge an appropriate amount of shipping fee depending on the distance."
Liu Caixia walked to the solid wooden bed, sat on it and patted the bed board. It was indeed quite good and very sturdy.
The solid wood bed board is polished very smoothly and inlaid very tightly. There are grooves at both ends to fix the bed board, so the bed board will not move around and make creaking sounds.
Then I looked at a wardrobe on the side. It was a double-door wardrobe, a very common style in ancient times. It had two layers, upper and lower. The layout inside was almost the same when opened. There were two layers separated by wooden boards, which could be used to store clothes and some bed sheets and quilts.
Liu Caixia was thinking of custom-making a wardrobe that can hang clothes. After all, many fabrics at this time will have weight after being folded, so she can only customize it later. Now she just follows the trend and uses a ready-made one.
"Make eight beds for us according to this standard, and eight wardrobes."
Originally she thought the bed was not very big, but after looking at it, she found that the beds at that time were quite large. They looked a bit like a square and could accommodate three to four people.
"Ma'am, are they all eight?"
This is a big deal, he was a little excited after hearing it, and couldn't help but confirm it again.
"Yes, let's make eight first, and maybe we'll need to increase the number in the future. Master, please be more careful and come back if you need me in the future."
"Ma'am, please rest assured that we will make it for you. We have been in business for decades. Our neighbors all know us and we have a good reputation."
Liu Caixia also selected three square tables and matching benches. As for the other furniture, she would talk about it later. These were all necessary. Desks and bookcases would have to wait.
