Lin Shucheng made some delicious food and brought it to Lin Jinyue as a midnight snack.
As soon as Lin Shucheng saw the design drawings, his eyes lit up: "My daughter, you really know how to enjoy life. Living in this house is so comfortable."
Lin Jinyue had an expression that said “this is nothing”.
She continued: "Dad, I think we may still need running water and electric lights."
As for the present, her family still has to draw water from the well.
However, there will still be a water tank in her design, and she will press one later.
This water tank is made for the wealthy businessmen to see.
A young master from a big family like Ji Zixuan would naturally have servants around him to help carry water to the water tank above.
As for heating the water tank, it is also simple.
They are just useless people.
There are two water tanks, one on the top floor and one on the second floor.
There is a special fire room on the second floor, which contains a water tank connected to the bathroom faucet. The fire is burned manually and hot water is released directly.
Thousands of kilograms of human wisdom, Lin Jinyue doesn’t believe that those wealthy businessmen don’t like it.
Early the next morning.
Lin Jinyue saw a ship coming from afar.
This ship is quite big.
The location Lin Jinyue chose was not far from the river, so she went to the shore and said to the people, "Can you transport the bricks to the designated place by the river?"
The boatman hurriedly said, "Oh no, there's a bridge over there, we can't get across."
Lin Jinyue smiled and said, "No, uncle, just carry it over there. It's not convenient to walk up here, and it's not easy to move your people either, right?"
Lin Jinyue said directly to Lin Fugui who was not far away: "Uncle Fugui, please go and help pull up the bridge."
As a result, the eyes of these people who delivered bricks almost popped out of their heads.
What did they see?
How did this bridge go up by itself?
Several people were stunned. They transported all the bricks and tiles over and looked at the bridge that stood still in a daze.
The captain of the ship, Lao Xu, also asked: "Can your ship carry people?"
Lin Jinyue nodded, "Isn't it just for the ship to pass? I even spent a lot of extra money for this, just in case it would delay your ship's passage."
Lao Xu felt a little guilty.
He seemed to have cursed too loudly before.
Lao Xu also has a boat, which often comes from Yunmeng County. There are many villages and towns along the way.
Occasionally, I can pick up a few people and make a small profit.
But some time ago, there was suddenly an extra boat here.
Old Li immediately wanted to go down and argue with the man, but was stopped by his deputy.
After some explanation, Lao Li realized that this village had a background, and General Gu from Shawan County was their backer.
They were all ordinary people doing business, and they didn't dare to offend the people in this village, so they simply took a detour.
Who knew that they only found out today that the people who came had specially reserved a seat for them.
Lao Li thought that he must inform the captains before going.
Stop scolding me.
Old Li felt bad and immediately had people move all the bricks and tiles to the side of the foundation for her.
Lin Jinyue felt a little embarrassed.
There were quite a lot of bricks and tiles on the boat. After they were all moved, it was almost noon.
Lin Jinyue treated them to lunch.
While her father was cooking, she ran to the two or so people.
The more than two dozen people had built thatched huts. The men were working tirelessly to clear the woods, while the women were pulling the oxen to plow the fields.
The children were not idle either. Knowing that Lin Jinyue wanted Lin Ziqi's wild fruits, they went picking wild fruits while helping with cooking at home.
Lin Jinyue looked at this scene and felt somewhat reluctant.
Lin Jinyue said to them: "Don't be so anxious. If you are tired, just take a rest."
There was a look of surprise on the faces of these people.
Lin Jinyue looked at the strongest men again, who were in their twenties and had muscular bodies.
Lin Jinyue found more than twenty people, each of them was strong.
Lin Jinyue was about to ask them to build the house, so she said, "You guys, come find me later."
Lin Jinyue would not entrust this group of people to do things that are more technical, such as flush toilets, water tanks, and faucets.
However, we can let them come to build houses and lay foundations.
This group of people knew that Lin Jinyue liked cleanliness, so in order to get rid of lice, they shaved the hair of both men and women and applied ointment every day.
When they heard that they were asked to go to Lin Jinyue's place, the people who were named hurried to take a shower.
Wait until they change into their cleanest clothes before going over.
Lin Jinyue also selected several people from the village, including Lin Fugui, Carpenter Wang's younger brother Wang Ershi, and Blacksmith Li and his brothers.
Lin Fugui is like a brick, he can be moved wherever he is needed.
Previously, Lin Jinyue asked him to be responsible for purchasing pig pancreases, but later she bought a lot, so someone delivered it to her, saving a lot of money.
Now that Lin Fugui is free, Lin Jinyue thought for a while and felt that her uncle Fugui is more trustworthy when it comes to some key technologies.
Lin Jinyue said to Lin Fugui and the others, "From now on, you will be a fixed decoration team. I will teach everyone some methods. Right? The same profit will still follow the old rules. I will take 20%, you will take 50%, and the villagers will take 30%."
Lin Fugui said quickly: "Don't worry, Yueyue, we will definitely do it well."
He couldn't help but ask again: "Yueyue, isn't this bamboo house comfortable to live in? Why did you suddenly want to build a house?"
You know what, they have developed a bond living in the bamboo house.
Lin Jinyue's expression was a little serious: "Aren't you worried about strong winds?"
Lin Fugui was a little surprised: "What kind of strong wind is this? Can it blow up our sturdy thatched house?"
Lin Jinyue: “It’s hard to say.”
Several people widened their eyes, some in disbelief.
At this time, one of the strong men following Lin Jinyue spoke up.
Wang San, the manager selected by Lin Jinyue from among the twenty people, said: "The wind was very strong. Our thatched cottages would be blown apart by a weaker wind without having to wait for a strong wind."
Wang San paused and continued, "The wind is really strong. When it's strong enough, it can blow the house over. Your house is really a bit precarious."
After hearing what Wang San said, Lin Fugui and the others also started to get anxious.
At this time, Wang Ershi could not help asking: "The wind overturned your thatched hut, what did you do?"
Wang San said calmly, "Re-cover it."
Lin Fugui was dumbfounded. "Well, then, how about we build a house? Yueyue, how much does your house cost?"
Lin Jinyue: "Not counting the labor costs, it cost three taels just to buy blue bricks. If it's not enough, I'm afraid I'll have to buy more. But the house I'm building is big, so maybe one tael of bricks will be enough for you."
Well, in addition to buying bricks, you also have to consider labor costs.
It certainly can’t be a vain job.
Lin Fugui did the math and was surprised to find that the expenses were quite high.
Especially since Lin Fugui had just bought a batch of blue bricks to build rabbit hutches, and he also bought a batch of rabbits, so he really had no money left.
Lin Fugui's family is relatively good, with many people in the family. There are many people in the village who not only have no money, but also no one.
Lin Fugui was so anxious, "What should I do?"
