Chapter 300: iron plate?

   Chapter 300 Iron plate?

   After the painting was finished, she looked at Xue Yan.

   Xue Yan caught her looking out of the corner of his eye, and looked back at her, she then motioned for Xue Yan to look at the ground.

  I saw a boxy frame drawn on the ground. There were four round holes in the frame. The holes were arranged in two rows, two on the top and two on the bottom.

   "Are you...?" Xue Yan rarely understood what she meant.

  Jiang Yue pointed at the square with a twig and said, "This is an iron plate. There are four holes in the middle that can hold a casserole, and each round hole can hold the bottom of a casserole."

  Xue Yan finally understood, "With this on the stove, can I cook four bowls of rice noodles with soup at the same time?"

   "Yeah." Jiang Yue nodded. "In this way, the fourth brother does not have to cook one bowl at a time, and can cook four different bowls at the same time. If someone comes to eat rice noodles, if they all order the same, the fourth brother is easy to cook, just cook in one pot, but they all order different. Yes, the fourth brother has to do it four times, which saves time and is not so tiring."

  Xue Yan also knew that the fourth brother almost didn't come here alone today, and was still very tired: "Then go to the town tomorrow and ask the blacksmith to make an iron plate like this."

  Jiang Yue: "Let's pay two dollars. I want to buy another stove at home."

  Xue Yan: "Okay."

"Then you can draw it on paper." Jiang Yue then lost the twig, "Draw carefully, the iron plate doesn't need to be too thick, but it can't be too thin, otherwise it won't be able to withstand four bowls of rice noodles, and the iron plate. The size needs to be just above the stove, and when the time comes, let the blacksmith make two such iron plates according to your drawing."

   Originally, she planned to draw by herself, but although she knew traditional Chinese characters, she had never used a brush, so writing or drawing with a brush would not look good.

   "Yeah." Xue Yan didn't ask more, just nodded.

Thinking that the iron-making technology here is not developed at all, so iron is expensive, Jiang Yue said again: "If you think it is expensive, you can replace the iron plate with an iron frame, as long as there are four holes in the middle, I think the stove is also on the top. At most four casseroles the size of a normal sea bowl can fit."

   "It's still an iron plate," Xue Yan said. "If the iron plate is firmer, it should take longer."

"Um."

   "Don't tell the fourth brother first, then give the fourth brother a surprise."

   "As you like." She didn't care.

   Taking advantage of Xue Sihu not paying attention, Xue Yan secretly painted. On the second day, before going out, he and Jiang Yue asked for some money from Liu Guixia. They were afraid that they would not have enough money.

  Liu Guixia knew that they would not use money indiscriminately, but she still didn't ask them what they wanted the money for. Anyway, Liu Guixia gave as much as they wanted.

   When Xue Sihu was busy building the awning again, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan made an excuse and went to the nearest blacksmith shop.

   The blacksmith looked at Xue Yan's drawing and said it was simple, but it would take three days to make it for them, and he said that it would cost more than two taels of silver in total.

Because this is custom-made, the price will indeed be higher. Unlike iron pots, hoes and shovels, there are already models. Just pour it with molten iron, and there is no need to make soil embryos. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan think the price is about the same. I paid the deposit and told the blacksmith that I would pick it up at this time in three days.

   brought two more tables to set up the stall, that is four tables, and at the stall of Xueji rice noodle, there can only be four tables, and there will be no more.

   After all, the stall is that big.

  Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were still the same as yesterday, standing at the fork in front, shouting, and asking people to eat rice noodles. You don’t have to eat, you can come and have a look, it still attracts a lot of people.
