Zeng Zhipeng didn't expect that in just two days, Su Sijin really brought the water down from the mountain.
Diverting water down the mountain caused an extraordinary sensation in Meijiang Village.
Everyone was talking about the water source. Su Sijin was not a stingy person. In order to satisfy the curiosity of the villagers, she opened the back house to the public.
Su Sijin used the principle of tap water laying and installed 'tap water' in the kitchen, shower room, toilet, living room, bedroom and other places where water was needed.
The faucets and water pipes are all made of bamboo.
When talking about 'faucets and pipes', we have to mention Lu Mao.
Originally, Su Sijin wanted to give it a try and told Lu Mao about her idea.
Lu Mao took the drawings she gave him, and after just one night's sleep, he had already understood the principles of water pipe laying.
Seeing that he made sense, Su Jin simply gave him the task, and he did not disappoint her. In just two hours, he successfully brought down the first stream of water.
The thorny problem of diverting water down the mountain has been solved. The most difficult part is how to get the water to flow to each house so that there is water when you turn on the 'faucet'.
Su Sijin only told Lu Mao the principle vaguely, but unexpectedly, he was able to make it.
In just two days, Lu Mao had unblocked all the water.
This is how today's excitement came about.
Anyone who comes to see something new, whether adults or children, will turn on the "faucet" and be amazed by the magical water coming out of the faucet.
The Lu residence was never quiet that day. Wave after wave of people rushed to the Lu residence to watch the magical water-exiting technique.
Some people who witnessed the miraculous water-generating technique became interested and later approached Lu Mao to ask him to divert the water down the mountain and install a "faucet".
Lu Mao refused without thinking. He rejected everyone's request on the grounds that it was not his technology.
Lu Maoben was an honest man, and he would answer whatever was asked, but he did not reveal a single word about diverting water down the mountain and making the water flow accessible.
To be honest, all the credit should be given to Su Sijin.
He was just doing the work of a carpenter, and he would not reveal any of his master's secrets without his master's permission.
Shanshan, the person who understood, left.
People who don't understand just think that Lu Mao has gained power overnight and are being aggressive in order to force Lu Mao to agree, but Lu Mao is not fooled.
Afterwards, Lu Mao returned the original drawing to Su Sijin and told her the villagers' ideas word for word.
Lu Mao's move made Su Sijin look at him with admiration.
It turns out that Lu Mao has such a strong sense of boundaries. As expected, apart from being a top-notch person, he is full of advantages. Lu Mao can stick to his professional ethics, which really makes Su Si look at him differently.
Su Sijin doesn't believe in eating alone. "Uncle San, spread the word that you can help them divert water and connect the water pipes."
Su Sijin's words startled Lu Mao and he stood up. He refused eagerly, "How can this be? That's my niece's craft. How can I take it for myself and publicize it?"
"It doesn't matter. Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone."
As long as her family does not stand out from the crowd, and is not considered mysterious and curious by others, the Lu family will not be the object of envy by others.
If the whole village had one, Lu's house would naturally not be the focus of everyone's attention.
If possible, she would like to promote it in Meijiang Village.
But full promotion is obviously impossible.
Not everyone is willing to spend a lot of money, or how many people can afford the price?
"Uncle San, if someone asks you to lead water down the mountain, don't refuse again, but..." Su Sijin paused.
"It's not like they're helping to divert water for free. They have to take into account the labor and process costs. Whether or not to divert water is a question they need to consider."
The reason why she proposed to divert water down the mountain for a fee was that they knew that other people's labor was valuable and it was not a matter of course, but required equal benefits in exchange.
Su Sijin pushed two taels of silver to Lu Mao's hand and said, "This is the salary I pay to my third uncle."
Lu Mao was about to recommend someone, but he heard Su Sijin say loudly, "How can you make a living from your craft without getting paid? Doesn't Third Uncle want to eat? Don't you want to raise children?"
"Besides, when the houses are divided, Uncle San will also need money to buy them, right? This is what you deserve."
After Su Sijin finished speaking, she noticed from the corner of her eye that the coarse cloth by the door had disappeared, and she raised the corners of her mouth and smiled meaningfully.
Lu Mao followed her gaze and realized belatedly that Su Sijin was actually building momentum for him.
If Lu Mao didn't know what was good for him, he would be dead. So after thanking Su Sijin, he said in a tone that left no room for negotiation: "Niece-in-law, I appreciate your kindness."
"After I make the money from the job, I'll split it 40-60 between me and my niece-in-law. You get 60, I get 40. Now that it's settled, I'm leaving. In five days, the furniture will be ready."
After Lu Mao finished speaking, he left without waiting for Su Sijin to answer.
Su Sijin was left in tears and laughter. She really didn't expect Lu Mao to be so considerate that he would actually think of giving her a share of the profits.
Su Sijin couldn't help but laugh out loud. She didn't take Lu Mao's words to heart.
"Ajin, what's so funny?" Zheng Jie appeared in front of Su Sijin holding a quilt and asked with a smile.
Behind her followed Zhang Bochao's family.
After Su Sijin greeted them with a smile, she invited Zheng Jie into the inner courtyard.
As for Zhang Bochao's family, except for Zhang Ze, she will make plans for the others after they have found housing. She also wants to take this opportunity to take a good look at Zhang Bochao's family.
Su Sijin told Zheng Jie about Lu Mao's plan.
Zheng Jie sighed softly, "I didn't expect him to grow so fast. How come I didn't realize he was so insightful before?"
Su Sijin looked at Zheng Jie, who looked much older, and knew that she was still brooding over Lu Changming's disappearance.
