Chapter 647: My Job Of Drawing For Your Tailor Shop Is No Longer Safe.
Liu Duo pretended to be strict and said, “It is acceptable. Let me see you draw another expression on it. It can also be of any other small animals. You are free to be creative.”
Upon hearing her, Dongfang Ming laughed and picked up the brush without saying anything. He then focused and started moving the brush.
He knew Liu Duo was testing him to see if he had grasped this drawing technique and was not just drawing by imitation.
At this time, Hei Xiaomeng started barking again. They could even hear someone shouting, “Ye Ling, Ye Liushi, can you guys tie up your dog. I’m here to sell tomatoes.”
He knew the three older brothers usually weren’t home at this time. That’s why he called Ye Ling and Liu Duo.
When Liu Duo heard him, she asked Ye Ling to continue practicing writing. She would just go by herself.
“Oh, it’s you. Come in, it won’t bite.” Liu Duo patted Hei Xiaomeng on its head and spoke to the man.
This man was the one who had said he wanted to go to the villages in the neighboring towns to buy tomatoes. Ever since he said this, he never came to Liu Duo’s house again. Liu Duo even though he had just said it as a joke.
“Brother Su, how many jins did you purchase?” Liu Duo looked at the three of them and each of them was carrying a carrying pole with full loads.
The one she called Brother Su, Su Quan, replied while he walked into the yard, “Not much, just around two hundred jins.”
They had accumulated these in the past few days from purchasing them from the villages in the neighboring towns.
Liu Duo immediately went to grab a brush and the transaction records when she entered the back of the yard. “Brother Su, what is the specific amount. I need to record it down and pay you the money.”
She wasn’t worried there would be many cracked or dried up tomatoes since she still trusted them. If it happened a second time their cooperation would end.
“Two hundred and one jins.” Su Quan held the carrying pole and stood to the side. “Ye Liushi, about what we discussed last time…how did the discussion with the Ye brothers go?”
Liu Duo finished recording the transaction, and she put down the brush and smiled at him. “We will give you two wens more for every jin. What do you think?”
After Dongfang Ming finished drawing a rabbit with a blank expression, he looked over towards Liu Duo.
It seemed that Liu Duo’s business was about to grow bigger and bigger.
“That’s fine. Thank you.” Su Quan nodded and felt that it was quite appropriate. He was not greedy. It was good as long as he could make money.
In any case, it was better than not having an income like before.
Liu Duo gave him the money that was owed to him and then went back underneath the roof to look at Dongfang Ming’s rabbit.
“Dongfang, your drawing is quite good. You can finish your apprenticeship! It seems that my job of drawing for your tailor shop is no longer safe,” Liu Duo said, praising him.
Smart people really were different. He was able to draw so well just after some instructions.
It had to be said that she had practiced quite a while before she could reach his current standard.
Dongfang Ming laughed when he heard her. His gentle temperament paired with his handsome face made him look handsome no matter how one looked at him. “Little Duo, you really know how to joke. How could my drawing be compared to yours?”
Liu Duo and Ye Ling also started to laugh in response to his modesty.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Liu and the others returned on the bullock-cart when it was close to noon. They saw Dongfang Ming’s horse carriage outside the yard…and the coachman was actually taking a nap on it?
Ye Mo muttered in his heart, Why did this fella come again? Why hasn’t he gone back to the capital?!
“Friend, why didn’t you go into the yard? Why are you spacing out over here?” Ye Liu smiled and said to him.
The coachman woke up from his nap when he heard Ye Liu’s voice.
Err… it wouldn’t be good for him to answer and talk about Dongfang Ming and Wang Xiangyun. After all, it was the boss’s family affair.
He only spoke after pausing for a while, “I’m waiting for the boss out here. He asked me to go back to town but I didn’t leave.”
