tood up and was about to leave. He saw it when he came. It was clear that Henry Zhang was carrying a basket with several statues of gods in it. He obviously had something to go out to deal with.
“Okay, I’ll see you off, Uncle Wu! I happen to be going out too.” Henry Zhang said as he picked up the basket he had just placed next to him.
The two came to the door, and Henry Zhang turned around and hung up the door lock. There was no need to lock it, as it belonged to fellow villagers, and there was no theft. The lock was just to inform the customers who came over that no one was at home for the time being.
“Uncle Wu, let me go to Wujia Village with you tomorrow. I may have a way to solve that problem.” Henry Zhang pondered for a moment and then said.
Henry Zhang was thinking about whether he could confer another earth god. Although Henry Zhang had decided to be more cautious when dealing with the conferment of gods, he really couldn’t bear it considering the care Boss Wu had taken for him in the past.
In fact, Henry Zhang had another consideration, he thought of his adoptive father!
If there is no suitable candidate in Wujiacun, maybe…
Of course, if there is a qualified candidate, then the matter will be dropped for the time being!
There’s no rush!
“Huh? Do you have a solution? Xiaoxuan? Don’t dare to say such nonsense!” Boss Wu was stunned and a little anxious. You should know that you can’t talk nonsense like this. Once you say that you can solve this kind of thing, if it is really solved smoothly, then it’s okay. But if it can’t be solved, it will be troublesome. Causing yourself a lot of trouble for no reason.
“Uncle Wu, I have some ideas. Don’t worry, I understand everything you said. I’ll talk to you in detail tomorrow!” Henry Zhang saw Boss Wu’s expression and instantly understood what he meant, and quickly stopped him.
“Okay… okay…, as long as you understand, just tell me what you said, but don’t say it to outsiders! I will ask the man to pick you up tomorrow. Go and do your business. Right.” Boss Wu wanted to say more, but when he saw the basket on Henry Zhang’s arm, he stopped talking.
Henry Zhang said hello to Liu Meng next to him and walked to the stoneware shop.
Chapter 41 Purchasing pens, ink, paper and inkstones
When he arrived at the stoneware shop, Henry Zhang saw three shirtless old men doing this work with a wet white towel on their shoulders.
“Uncle Fan! I’m busy,” Henry Zhang greeted outside the door.
One of them turned around when he heard the sound. It was Boss Fan. When he saw it was Zhang Xuan, he was stunned for a moment and said: “Brother Zhang is here, sit down quickly and wait for me.” After saying that, Boss Fan turned around and returned to the backyard. After a while, he was fully dressed
. He walked out and sat next to Henry Zhang.
Henry Zhang also placed the basket he brought on the table next to him.
“Brother Zhang, why do you have time to come here today? The stone mill will not be ready for a few days. Then I will ask the clerk to deliver it to you!” Boss Fan was actually a little embarrassed because of the production of five sarcophagi. It was much more difficult than I thought. Several people had been working overtime in the past two days to finish the sarcophagus, and they couldn’t spare any manpower to do the stone grinding.
Henry Zhang waved his hand and said: “Uncle Fan, don’t be in a hurry about the stone mill!”
Boss Fan relaxed a little and said: “Then…Brother Zhang, why are you here…?” ”
Oh…Uncle Fan, Look, haven’t I carved the five custom-made statues? I’ll bring them over in advance for you and the customer to see if they are satisfied. If not, modify them or re-carve them.” Henry Zhang said, and put the The basket on the table was brought over.
Boss Fan just noticed that Henry Zhang came here with a basket, and thought he was here to speed up the progress of the stone grinding. Unexpectedly, the wooden statue of the god was ready. This time I was completely relieved.

Boss Fan picked up the basket and put it next to him, and then took out a statue of Zhong Kui from the basket. He looked at it and marveled at it, saying: “Don’t tell me, Brother Zhang, this is your skill!” Boss Fan said
, While giving Henry a thumbs up.
“Your skills are much better than your father’s!” Mr. Fan couldn’t put it down as he held the statue in his hand.
“Uncle Fan, as you said, the carving should be more fierce. Is this image okay with you?” Henry Zhang couldn’t help but interrupt Fan Laodao.
“Well, it’s quite fierce. I think it’s okay. I’ll show it to the owner later. It should be fine! It’s indeed very powerful!” Boss Fan reluctantly put the statue into the basket and said to Zhang Xuan.
“That’s it, Uncle Fan, I will leave the statue with you for now. If the master has any suggestions for modification later, please let me know!” Henry Zhang stood up and prepared to leave.
“Okay, leave it here! If you have something to do, go and get busy! Brother Zhang!” Boss Fan agreed and stood up to see off the guests.
Henry Zhang left the stoneware shop, but did not leave directly. He planned to go to Dongcheng District to buy some Four Treasures of the Study.
The town is not that big. According to the current time, it took about ten minutes to arrive at a store.
There is a signboard hanging on the store with three big characters “Moxiangju”. It is the only store in Wangjia Town where you can buy pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
The shop owner was a failed scholar with a surname of Wen, so people called him Wen Xiucai. Henry Zhang didn’t know his specific name. Anyway, everyone called him Wen Xiucai when they met.
After Wen Xiucai failed the exam many times, he gave up the idea of continuing to take the exam, so he returned to Wangjia Town and opened the “Moxiangju”. There were dozens of acres of thin farmland outside the town. It was not easy for him to be rich and wealthy. In the end, At least we have enough food and clothing.
“Wen Xiucai, are you in the store?” Henry Zhang entered the store but did not see the waiter and the boss Wen Xiucai.
“Coming… coming…” Accompanied by a hearty voice, a man wearing a plain gown opened the curtain and walked in from the backyard.
“Hey, Brother Zhang is here!” Wen Xiucai saw it was Henry Zhang and said hello with a smile.
“Come to my Moxiangju today. What are you going to see?” Henry Zhang carefully recalled the memory of the original owner and found that he had very little contact with Wen Xiucai and was not very familiar with him. After all, the original owner had never planned to take the imperial examination, so it was natural to come here. few.
Henry Zhang looked around and looked at the various pens, inks, papers and inkstones on the shelves.
In the end, Henry Zhang chose two brushes, an ink block and some paper. I already have an inkstone at home, so I don’t need to buy one. Paper Xuan Zhang picked some ordinary writing paper, some yellow and relatively rough paper similar to the ones used to draw talismans in previous lives, and some red paper that can be used to write couplets.
After Zhang Xuan and Wen Xiucai settled the fees, they picked up these things and returned to Lingsu Residence.
As soon as I passed by the door of the paper-making shop, I was caught in the eye by Liu Haner, a little girl sitting at the door looking at the passers-by.
“Brother…, you’re back!” The little girl ran over and said.
“Back.” Henry Zhang smiled and rubbed the little girl’s head and said.
When Henry Zhang opened the door of the Spiritual Sculpture House, he first put the things on the counter. Just as he was about to tidy them up a little and then put them back into the house, he heard the sound of “Meow Meow…” and slept peacefully on the stool where Henry usually sat when carving statues of gods. He opened his eyes, then yelled and ran to Henry Zhang’s feet, rubbing Henry Zhang’s calves and yelling.
