In the past, my daughter wore straw sandals, which left scars all over her feet. After the family split up, the whole family wore cloth shoes made by her.
The next day.
In order to go to the county town, Zhao Xiaoyu got up early. When she arrived at the county town, she first bought a set of clothes, a hat, and shoes, and disguised herself. People from the village often go to the city, and her father is also there every day, so she had better be careful.
Zhao Xiaoyu went to the pharmacy to buy snake repellent powder and some daily medicines, including those for hemostasis and bruises, and spent nearly ten taels of silver at once. Her heart ached. Why were medicines in ancient times so expensive?
It's not that she is stingy, she is really poor.
Then I went to the steamed buns stall and bought ten meat buns, ten vegetable buns, and thirty sesame cakes. Then I went to the blacksmith shop and bought a chopstick. There was nothing else, but it was better than nothing. She bought 10 kilograms of flour, rice, and brown rice from the grain store and asked the waiter to deliver them to the alley. Since there was no one around, she immediately put them into her space and quickly went to the grocery store to buy a tinderbox, oil, salt, a pottery jar, and a water bag...
After buying these, Zhao Xiaoyu left the county town and headed straight for the mountains. There is still plenty of time left, so take a walk around before leaving.
Zhao Dashu found the master builder and told him that he wanted him to help build the house. The old man then took him directly to the kiln factory to order bricks. Looking at the piles of bricks piled up in front of the kiln factory, Zhao Dashu was so jealous. These bricks look better than those in the old house.
After discussion, they decided to build the yard first and then build the house. This way, things would be much safer in the yard, and they wouldn't have to hire someone to watch over things. Sometimes, even if someone has the intention, they can't keep an eye on them. The master craftsman thought about the approximate number of bricks, discussed it with the person in charge of the kiln factory, and then paid the deposit. Fortunately, when he went out that day, Zhao Xiaoyu gave him ten taels.
"Boss, you don't have to worry about the food for the unskilled workers, but you have to take care of the food for those who come from our county. There are probably about ten masters who come here."
"That's no problem. You live in the county town, and it's not convenient for you to come to the city. We definitely can't let the masters go hungry."
"We'll find thirty unskilled laborers and start work in three days. When the time comes, you can pick us up at the entrance of the village. We won't know the way this time."
"Okay, Master, we'll meet at the entrance of the village in three days."
The old master is very satisfied with his new employer. He does things decisively, without any hesitation and is generous.
Come to think of it, the person who can build such a nice house must be no ordinary person.
Zhao Dashu didn't go to the restaurant, but went straight to the village. It was agreed that Liu Shunzi would deliver the food and keep a record of the amount. He would go and settle the bill after a few days when the bamboo shoots were gone.
"village head!"
"You haven't worked for a day, sit down."
"Didn't you go pick bamboo shoots, too?"
"That's all we have. I don't want to get embarrassed and lose face by competing with the villagers." The village chief said helplessly. There are fewer and fewer bamboo shoots recently, and everyone is fighting like crazy to earn more.
"Village chief, my family is building a house. Could you please give me a hand and help supervise the construction?" With the village chief around, he dared to guarantee that the people living in the old house would not dare to make too much noise. Hi, the village chief is like a door god, so useful.
"Okay, Zuo Xu, I'm free recently, and I might not be able to go during the busy farming season."
"Then it's settled. Just like when I was helping out at Shunzi's house, I'll still get 30 wen a day. Is that okay with you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just going to supervise the workers, why should I pay them?"
"Yes, yes. If you don't accept it, I won't dare to ask you. One thing is another. You will pay the workers' wages and arrange their work. There is no shortage of work."
"For the wages, why don't you ask your relatives for help?"
"No, I'm building a big one, and it will take a long time. The master said it will take more than three months. Village chief, please help me find thirty laborers."
"It takes so long to build with so many people. Big tree, what kind of house are you building?"
"A big house with blue bricks and tiles, just like the ones the masters in the county town live in, with a big yard and two entrances in the front and back. No one in our village knows how to build it, so I found a master in the county town."
The village chief was silent.
