Chapter 242: Will she be able to see the boss get married in her lifetime?
The layout of the brush workshop is a large house with five rooms, plus a kitchen with a sloping roof on the side.
There is a row of five stoves in the kitchen, each with a huge iron pot on top, which is prepared for lunch after work.
It is too cold in winter. If the prepared food is taken out in advance, it will become cold after a while and can only be kept warm in the pot. If there are many people and not enough pots, the food will not be enough.
Shen Qing felt that when working in a factory, salary was one part and food was another, and neither could be too bad. If the food was too bad or too unpalatable, it would affect one's mood for the whole day.
The workshop didn't make all the ground dragons, only the work areas did it. After all, if it was too cold, your hands would freeze and you wouldn't be able to do delicate handwork at all.
Only when the whole body is relaxed in a warm environment and the hands are not stiff, can one do things quickly and well.
In addition to the floor dragon, the heat from the stove is not wasted. A fire wall is built. The heat generated by the five stove holes makes you warm just thinking about it!
After Shen Qing took a look, he thought of placing the basins and vats for soaking the raw materials near the fire wall so that they would not freeze. The heat could accelerate the secretion of oil, allowing it to be cleaned and nitrated faster and better.
Next is grooming. Inside the house, there is the double heat from the fire wall and the ground dragon, so it won't get cold;
Then comes the tying of wires, which is a delicate job. If you sit there motionless, you won’t be able to generate heat yourself, so the place where you tie the wires should be close to the stove fire wall.
Next comes the polishing of pen shafts and the sawing of wood, both of which require physical strength, and the heat from the earth dragon is enough.
Plan the production line and start thinking about what to buy.
You should prepare at least 70 or 80 bowls and chopsticks. It’s okay to have more, but you can’t have less than enough.
If there are too many people, we can't make a lot of delicate stir-fries. Most of the time, we use the Northeastern cuisine of stewing in one pot. After each person has the staple food, they scoop a spoonful of stew on top, which is a lunch. So there is no need to buy plates, but the bowls need to be big... Buy a coarse pottery basin!
Each person has a bowl and a pair of chopsticks, and lines up to get food and dishes. This is the same meal-getting model as in Chinese factories. This is the fastest and most convenient way that has been tested by the market.
There are also tables and chairs to buy, but right now there are only two people in the village doing carpentry work, the carpenter and Xiaoshan, so it's too late to do it quickly, so each family can bring in a small stool to use as a makeshift.
Then build a few tables with stone slabs to deal with it.
You need to buy more cloth for polishing.....and a water tank for soaking wool.....also silk thread, scissors, scrapers.....
The workshop will be almost finished in another seven or eight days. The wool will need to be soaked for five to seven days, and the sheepskin can be bought in advance and soaked in lime powder. By the way, you also need to buy lime!
The more I think about it, the more I realize there are so many things I need to buy. I can buy everything in advance, but I don’t have the manpower to go to the city to buy them....
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!" The shouting coming from far away made Shen Qing turn around and look.
Jiang Dabao, who was running out of breath, had a bright smile on his face and was clucking like a happy goose.
After a while, the man arrived, propped up his legs and panted, "The village is discussing something, and asked me to call you. Everyone is waiting."
He glanced at the workshop under construction and added uncertainly, "Sister-in-law, do you have time to go?"
My parents and the others said that my sister-in-law was the most important and busiest person in the village. She had the most things to do and the most worries to worry about, so we couldn't disturb her easily. So when there was something to discuss, we would wait until everyone was present before inviting my sister-in-law over.
It’s okay for them to wait a while, they can’t waste their sister-in-law’s time!
"Yes, let's go." Shen Qing looked at the bricklayers who were busy building the house and responded.
The workshop is almost finished. As long as the layout is correct, the rest can be left to the bricklayer.
Professional matters should be left to professionals. What she can do is to control the general direction. If she does everything by herself, using both her brain and physical labor, she will die sooner or later.

The meeting was set to take place at Guan the Carpenter's house.
Apart from Shen Qing's house, only three other houses have been built in the village. Guan the Carpenter's house doesn't have many rooms, but there are few people and no noisy children, so it's quiet.
All the old men gathered in the main hall of his house, waiting for Shen Qing.
Seeing Shen Qing coming over, he gave up his armchair and the others squeezed together and sat down on the long bench.
They were all farmers in the village, so they didn't really care. Master Jiang was the first to explain his purpose: "It's been getting colder day by day lately, and it's even windy today. I'm afraid it might rain or snow at any moment. I called everyone here to discuss sending the dried herbs to the city to sell."
When rain and snow come, on the one hand, it is impossible to go up the mountain to dig medicinal herbs, and on the other hand, it is impossible to go to the city. In addition, the medicinal herbs that have been dried need to be carefully preserved and stored.
"It's better to sell it. It will give you peace of mind with the money in your hands!" Boss Feng was the first to agree.
Granny Qin followed up, "It's not just about money, we also need to go to the city to buy more belongings. This winter is much colder than I thought!
Since I'm going out to sell medicinal herbs, I can use the money I earn to buy more things."
It’s okay if you don’t need it, but I’m afraid that when you need it, it will be useless to count the money.
I can't eat, drink, or keep warm. The purpose of earning money is to make life better. Of course, it has to be converted into other things I need.
Carpenter Guan, who usually remained silent for a long time, said hurriedly, "Okay, take my daughter with you. I have a lot of things I need to buy!"
There will definitely be a lot of people going to the city this time, so it will be safer to follow the village team.
My family was busy building a house and doing a lot of other things before. Now that the wedding is about to take place, I can’t delay any longer. No matter how busy I am, I have to prepare the dowry.
The dowry should have been something that the parents should worry about, but, alas, he owed his daughter.
Shen Qing immediately understood and said, "Xiangxi is also going to buy things for the new house. It's a good opportunity for Ali to decide. When the young couple lives there, they will feel comfortable looking at things they like, right?"
The others reacted and congratulated with smiles on their faces.
"Xiangxi finally got what he wanted. It's really a cause for celebration~"
"If it weren't for the damn flood, they would have gotten married long ago!"
Everyone agreed. After all, the betrothal gifts had been given in April or May. If it weren't for the flood, the wedding would have taken place within two months. In the end, it was the flood that delayed the wedding.
"Ah, good things come to those who wait. If there hadn't been a flood, we wouldn't have come here. How could we get medicinal herbs if we hadn't come to the mountains? Now is the perfect time!"
"Yes, Xiaoli, it's a good life now that you've moved from a brand new home to an even more spacious one."
Guan Li, who was eavesdropping, blushed and quietly returned to the house.
Liu Cuihua was stunned. Is Shen Qing's family planning a wedding?
And the daughter-in-law is Guan Li, the daughter of the Guan family?
She remembered that Shen Qing's second son was nineteen this year. He must be very anxious to get married at this age, so the sooner before the New Year the better.
Shen Qing is really a capable person. He can raise several children by himself and even find wives for the children.
Then he thought of his eldest son, who is now twenty-three years old, and suddenly felt mixed emotions.
I don't know if I can see the boss get married in my lifetime...
