Chapter 242 I’m going to another place
After making the agreement, Liu Jingfeng did not intend to stay in the store any longer.
After getting up to say goodbye, Yang Jianlong and Lin Ran sent them out of the shop and said goodbye.
After they left, Yang Jianlong quickly came over and asked, "Godfather, is everything okay?"
They talked in the room for a while, and Yang Jianlong couldn't help but feel worried.
According to the Tufuzi's agreement, their conversation cannot be known to outsiders.
Therefore, Lin Ran did not tell him about his trip to Shaanxi Li Jiling.
Just said: "Jianlong, I may have to leave for a while."
"Leave? Godfather, where are you going?" Yang Jianlong was a little anxious.
"Don't worry, I just went out of town to do something." Seeing Yang Jianlong's appearance, Lin Ran couldn't help but feel relieved that he was not treating this older boy in vain.
"how long?"
"Not sure yet." Lin Ran said, "I'm not here during this period, so you have to keep an eye on the decoration work of the store and make sure nothing goes wrong. I hope that when I come back, I can see the decorated store."
Excavation of ancient tombs does not happen overnight.
Large mausoleums require several years of professional equipment to be completed.
It was also Li Jiling's first time there, so he wasn't sure how long he would stay.
Yang Jianlong said seriously: "Don't worry, godfather, when you come back, I will finish the shop for you according to the design drawing and wait for your acceptance."
"That's good."
"Daddy, when are you leaving? I'll take you to the train station." Yang Jianlong volunteered.
Since he and Liu Jingfeng had to set off together, the transportation was arranged by them, so Yang Jianlong could not be sent to the train station.
So he shook his head and refused: "I will set off with them."
Yang Jianlong still doesn't know Liu Jingfeng's true identity, but he doesn't look like an ordinary businessman.
"Okay, godfather, I'll take you back."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After returning home, Lin Ran began to prepare tools.
Liu Jingfeng and others will definitely prepare Luoyang shovel, pickaxe and other tomb robbing tools, so he doesn't need to worry.
What he needs to prepare is a special key to open the tomb chamber. According to Lu Yingjie's notes, tombs in the Tang Dynasty usually have a reverse-button structure, with the inside and outside connected to each other, making it easier for the mausoleum workers to escape and use it after completion.
He needs to prepare a strong steel rod, but make it into a z-line shape.
This thing is really difficult for ordinary people to make. Fortunately, Lin Ran's family happened to be building a house and the tools were complete.
Lin Ran came to the construction site. The workers had dug the foundation and started to build the exterior wall.
Yuan Yuan's parents were talking to Bai Mao about something, but when Lin Ran leaned over, they had already left.
When Bai Mao saw Lin Ran, he immediately put on a polite expression: "Brother Lin, the previous ruins have been filled in and will definitely not affect the safety of your residence."
"That's good." Lin Ran saw a look of embarrassment on his parents' faces from a distance and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, Brother Lin. It's just about money. According to preliminary estimates, it will cost about 2000 yuan to build your house. I told your parents not to worry. You can pay it back slowly. I will put the money aside first, but they don't seem to want to do that." Do."
Bai Mao explained, and specifically emphasized that it was not about him asking for money, for fear that Lin Ran would be unhappy.
"I see, I will take care of this matter." Lin Ran smiled, "I want to ask you for a favor."
"Brother Lin, please tell me."
Lin Ran drew a z-shape, handed it to Bai Mao, and said, "I want your workers to help make a steel bar like this. The long end is one meter, the short end is half a meter, and it is at a seventy-degree angle."
"What is this for?" Bai Mao felt puzzled.
Lin Ran smiled and said: "A special tool."
Since it was Lin Ran's request, of course he would not refuse and immediately found a steel bar master to suppress it.
Holding the finished product in his hands, Lin Ran's preparations were completed.
As long as this thing exerts a little force, it can easily pry open the door of the tomb and enter the interior of the tomb.
The internal structure can be solved after looking at it.
Father Lin and Mother Lin came back from the construction site and found that Lin Ran was there. They asked curiously: "Xiao Ran, are you back so early?"
"I'll be back when I finish my work." Lin Ran smiled, "Dad, Mom, let's go home. It's time to have dinner."
Sitting at the dinner table, my parents looked worried.
Lin Ran already knew that they were struggling with the money to build a house.
My parents are both honest people and don't want to owe anyone else money. The previous injury was a last resort.
Building a house costs more than 2000 yuan, so they are naturally reluctant to part with it.
However, they did not tell Lin Ran and Lin Wanjun about this. Instead, Lin's father smiled and asked: "With the new house, what furniture are you going to buy?"
"Buying furniture! What a waste of money." Mother Lin glared at him.
"When there are enough materials, I will make one for them myself." Father Lin said, "Can we still use old furniture in the new house?"
Lin Wanjun said happily: "Okay, I want a big dressing table."
"Xiao Ran, what about you?" Father Lin looked at Lin Ran.
Lin Ran didn't say a word while eating, which was unlike his character.
"He must have a big shelf to display the junk he collected." Lin Wanjun joked.
"Xiaoran, is that so?"
Only then did Lin Ran come to his senses and quickly replied: "Every junk thing is the treasure of our ancestors."
"Anyway, I'll definitely give you the whole show when the time comes. Don't hide it under the bed anymore." Lin Wanjun smiled.
Lin Ran had been thinking about how to speak.
Now I finally made up my mind.
After dinner, her mother put away the dishes and chopsticks, and Lin Ran placed a box on the table and spread it out.
Inside was the 1 yuan he earned from John.
The family has never seen so much money and a big mouth.
"Xiaoran...you...where did you get so much money?" Lin Wanjun was the first to ask.
"I work in a pawn shop. I recently took a big order and made a lot of money." Lin Ran said calmly.
Father Lin was the first to come to his senses and handed the box back to Lin Ran.
"Xiao Ran, it's not easy for you to make money. We can't collect this money. You can keep it yourself."
"Dad, Mom, it costs money to build a house and buy furniture, so you just keep it first." Lin Ran couldn't help but said, and handed the box to his father, "Isn't mine the one that belongs to the family? If it doesn't work, you can save it for me. .”
Even if parents are worried about money, they don't want their children to know.
Father Lin thought for a while before taking the money.
"Okay, then I will save it for you. You can always take it back when needed."
"Yeah." Lin Ran smiled, and then his expression became serious.
"Dad, Mom, there's something I want to tell you... I'm going out of town for a while."
"what?"
My parents and sister shouted in unison!
