Although Su Nuo is only six years old, he is actually very smart. When Su Tang asked him to see how to decorate the room, he really had his own ideas and he understood them very clearly.
"Okay!" Su Tang nodded, then looked at the empty yard, thought for a moment, and called Mint, "Go to Carpenter Wang's house and see if he comes over if he is free."
Originally, Su Tang wanted to go there. She had made a lot of wooden boxes at Carpenter Wang's house before. The craftsmanship was good, and Su Tang was also very satisfied.
But now that I see that there seems to be a lot of things that need to be done in this house, I might as well ask Carpenter Wang to make a trip, so that he can directly measure the length and distance, which will save trouble.
Bo Bo hurriedly agreed to go out to run errands. When Bo Bo said that he wanted to customize furniture, Carpenter Wang and his wife followed Bo Bo without saying a word.
Seeing him coming, Su Tang asked Su Nuo to talk to him, and Su Nuo told him what he needed.
"What kind of bookshelf did the young master talk about? Can the desk be made like this? If the young master wants to put a round table here, I'm afraid the table can't be too big. I see that the area on the kang is not small. If the young master has one For people to live in, it’s better to put a wardrobe on the kang, so that the place doesn’t seem so tight.”
When Carpenter Wang heard that Su Nuo had many items in one room, he was a big customer, so he discussed it with Su Nuo very seriously.
Su Nuo was only six years old. It was the first time that an adult looked at her like this. It was completely as if he was in charge. It was also very novel, so she started to communicate seriously with Carpenter Wang.
Su Tang just watched from the side and didn't bother. If the little guy couldn't think of it, just remind him. But she also thought too much. That's what Wang Carpenter did. Su Nuo didn't expect that he would also remind him. .
"Then it's decided. Here is a bookshelf that is as high as one person, then a desk, a chair, a wardrobe on the kang, and a small round table with four small round stools. I have all the sizes. Remember it, I promise to make the young master's room bright and comfortable."
Carpenter Wang carefully recorded it and confirmed it with Su Nuo. Su Nuo was very excited when talking, but when he heard that there was so much to do, he hesitated, "How much do these cost?"
Carpenter Wang saw him asking and glanced at Su Tang. Su Tang smiled and nodded, and then he said, "The wooden cabinet on the kang is made of more materials, costing two hundred cents each. The desk and chair are more expensive, and two of them cost four." One hundred and fifty cents, the bookshelf is one hundred and fifty cents, and the table and stool together are three hundred cents."
At first, Su Nuo counted on his fingers, but then he became confused. Finally, Wang Carpenter quoted a total price of "a total of eleven hundred cents, that is, one tael of silver and one hundred cents."
Not to mention that Su Nuo was extremely surprised when she heard so much money, even Zhang Cuilan and Bo Mint were stunned. This room costs more than one tael of silver, which is really too expensive.
This is because Su Tang doesn't want any particularly good wood and just uses pine trees from nearby mountains. If he wants good wood, the price of furniture alone ranges from a few hundred pennies to several thousand taels or even thousands of taels of silver.
Su Nuo was confused, "Is this much?" The little guy was still very economical.
"Let's make a note of it for now, and then look at the main house." Su Tang thinks it's okay, not because she has a big head, but because she lives well, and naturally her other expenses will rise accordingly.
These are all very natural principles and not difficult to understand.
