Chapter 109 Everyone's Plan
"Second uncle, Uncle Bajin is here." Ye Jiner walked in.
"I'll be right there. Little sister, I'll go make the deliveries first."
"Go quickly, we'll discuss it after dinner tonight."
Soon, it got dark.
The delivery people are returning home one after another.
After dinner, Ye Caiping told Ye Erquan about asking him to form a team to build a thatched hut.
Old Man Ye and others looked at each other in confusion. Is it necessary to build a toilet?
Isn't it just about building a small hut and putting a toilet in it?
Ye Caiping showed the drawings to Old Man Ye, Ye Daquan and others.
Old Man Ye understood a little, but Ye Daquan was completely confused.
"I plan to ask my second brother to find two more people to help us. Big brother, do you want to join us?" Ye Caiping said.
"Ah... this..." Ye Daquan scratched his head: "I don't quite understand it, and I can't even build a wall properly. If I want to work with them, I can only stand there and wait for them to move things."
"Standing aside and moving a few stones will take up one share. How can this be acceptable? Erquan should find someone who can build a masonry structure!"
Mrs. Du pinched Ye Daquan and said, "It's all your fault for being so rude. You don't know anything except brute force."
"You damn bitch, you're pinching me again. Ouch!"
Old Man Ye nodded: "Daquan is right."
Unequal distribution of work may not be a problem in the short term, but will lead to conflicts over time. Don’t let the business fail and instead cause brothers to become enemies.
How could Ye Caiping not understand this, so she looked at Ye Yong: "Where is Yong'er?"
Ye Yong hurriedly shook his head: "I, I don't want to do this..."
Ye Caiping raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye Erquan again: "Second brother, it seems you have to find someone else."
Ye Erquan laughed and said, "I thought about it for a long time when I was delivering the goods. In Qinghe Village, besides me, the best people to build houses are Sanquan and Tieniu. If they are willing..."
"Then we can ask them tomorrow. Then we can sign a deed and start building a hut for me!"
"OK."
Wei said anxiously, "Little sister, can you really make money by building a hut?"
“It has prospects.”
“When can I make money?”
"I have to wait until my house is built and the workshop business starts to pick up. Then I will start looking for customers and introduce business to my second brother."
Wei sounded a little discouraged, but at the latest it would be March or April after the New Year.
Moreover, building a house is the most important event for every household. There are only a few people who build it, and the money spent is high.
Who would spend money to build a toilet when a toilet can solve the problem?
Not only Wei, but also Old Man and Old Lady Ye were not optimistic.
But seeing how excited my son and daughter were, it was hard to say anything. Just let them do whatever they want!
"Yong'er, from your tone just now, do you have something you want to do?" Ye Caiping looked at Ye Yong.
Old Man Ye and Mrs. Du also looked at him.
Ye Yong blushed slightly: "Actually... I... want to be a carpenter, because it is a craft. As long as you have the skills, you won't starve to death. It's just that I feel a little embarrassed."
Ye Caiping chuckled: "So you want to be a carpenter. What's there to be embarrassed about?"
"Because...Xiu Xiu is engaged to Carpenter Cai, but now I want to be a carpenter...it seems weird."
Ye Caiping laughed even more: "What's so strange about this?"
"Of course. If he becomes a carpenter, does that mean no one else in the world can become a carpenter?" Mrs. Du said anxiously, "It's just that it's difficult to become a disciple. Everyone is afraid that teaching an apprentice will starve them to death, and many people are unwilling to teach, even if you pay them."
Ye Caiping stroked her chin and thought for a while: "It's okay, I should be able to find a way. My second brother and I need to make doors and windows for our family, so let's find a good carpenter to do it. By the way, ask if he will accept apprentices."
Mrs. Du's eyes lit up: "Little sister, can you really find a master for Yong'er?"
"We have to take a look first."
"Okay, hehe. Don't worry, little sister. If Yong'er really finds a master, we will pay for the tuition fees for becoming his disciple."
Seeing his eldest son's ambition, Ye Daquan patted his chest and said, "Don't worry! I can't afford Xuan'er's education, but I can still afford to let Yong'er learn a craft."
Carpentry is a lucrative job, and he wanted to find a master to learn the craft. However, not only was there no salary, but he had to pay money, five hundred coins a month.
He couldn’t afford it before, but now that he has a salary, his son can afford it!
Wei became anxious after hearing this, Carpenter! That is the best way out.
She wanted Ye Erquan to learn as well, but she thought that not only would she not be able to make money immediately, but she would also have to pay for it.
Besides, if I learn a skill I won’t be able to deliver goods.
Her son still had to study, and she wanted him to take the imperial examination.
Although Wei was eager to try, he had to give up the idea.
At this time, Ye Caiping looked around at Jinhua, Yinhua, and Jin'er and asked, "What about you guys? What do you want to do?"
Jinhua and Yinhua were startled. Jinhua said, "We? What can we do? I have to feed the chickens and cook!"
Yinhua nodded her little head.
Ye Caiping: "Besides feeding chickens and cooking, you can also do something else. For example, I don't like feeding chickens and cooking. I like to do business and make money."
"When I have money and a job, I won't need these anymore. I can hire someone to do it for me."
She used herself as an example to explain the truth in a simple and clear way.
In fact, she had already thought about it. After the house was built, she would find a female teacher to teach the girls, at least to broaden their horizons and improve their handwriting.
Jinhua was stunned. Yes, if she could have a skill and a livelihood like her aunt, she wouldn't have to cook for herself!
Seeing her expression, Ye Caiping smiled and said, "So what do you want to do? Or, what do you like to do?"
Jinhua blushed: "I like making clothes."
Ye Caiping nodded and said making clothes was fine.
Then he looked at Yinhua: "Where's Yinhua?"
Yinhua was indecisive and glanced at Jinhua: "I, I like making clothes, too."
Ye Jiner said: "I want to learn how to do business from my mother."
Ye Huaner: "Me too!"
"Okay, okay, as long as we have a plan." Ye Caiping nodded with a smile, and then looked at Mrs. Du: "Sister-in-law, how about finding a clothing store or an embroidery workshop and let Jinhua learn from it?"
Mrs. Du frowned and said, "Well...Jinhua is fourteen years old, and will be fifteen after the Chinese New Year. She has to get engaged."
Old Mrs. Ye also nodded: "Yes, it's not small anymore."
Ye Caiping said, "Sister-in-law, mother, don't rush to arrange a marriage for her. Wait at least a year before thinking about this."
Now Erquan is going to form a team, and Ye Yong also needs to learn skills.
The plans for the first and second rooms have been made, and their family can still move up.
By then, I'll be able to find a better family.
Old Lady Ye and Mrs. Du looked at each other, but Old Man Ye figured it out and said, "Don't rush to arrange a marriage for the child. Wait another two years!"
Mrs. Du frowned, but finally nodded: "Okay! It's not urgent."
Jinhua's face had already turned red with shame, and her head almost hung down to her chest.
