In the year of disaster, the tough peasant girl is not easy to mess with

Ye Lingyao also knows that building a house requires a lot of manpower.

With more people, they can move into new houses sooner.

She didn't be stingy with the money, and instead asked Zhao Shi, "Uncle Zhao, if you usually build a house and do work, how much does it cost per day?"

Zhao Shi was slightly startled. This girl was really careless. Why did she ask like that?

He is indeed a child, he really has no sense at all.

Fortunately, he is not the kind of person who cheats or cheats, otherwise, this child would really suffer.

He then said with a smile, "In the past, people in the village went out to work, moving and carrying things, and only paid [-] cents a day. If they built a house, the price was about the same."

Ye Lingyao thought for a moment and nodded, "Uncle Zhao, let's do this. I'll give you fifty cents a day. You can help us find as many people as possible and build the house as soon as possible, okay?"

Zhao Shi was slightly startled, "This..."

Ye Lingyao also understood his concerns, so she asked directly, "There is one more thing, please tell Uncle Zhao. I just told you about my idea of ​​building a house. Can you estimate how much it will cost?" "

When Zhao Shi heard this, he roughly made an estimate, "If you build a house with blue bricks and tiles, the cost will naturally be higher, and such a large house also requires a lot of bricks and tiles, not to mention wood, furniture, etc. , I guess even 100 taels won’t be able to stop it.”

Ye Lingyao was a little surprised, "You built a house and brought furniture?"

Zhao Shi scratched his head in embarrassment, "There are a few of us who are good at carpentry, and they will also make some furniture when building a house."

Ye Lingyao was instantly happy, "That's great!"

Before Zhao Shi understood what she meant, he saw her hand over a banknote directly and said very grandly, "Then please don't worry about it, Uncle Zhao. You can use the money to build a house first." As for materials, as for hiring people, you can take care of it yourself. I only have a little house, so I have to build it as soon as possible, and of course the quality cannot be bad."

Zhao Shi held the two 50-tael silver notes in his hand, and his hands began to tremble.

"Ye Yatou, you just gave me so much money directly?"

Ye Lingyao smiled and nodded, "We brothers and sisters may not always stay here during this period. If we are not here, you may not be able to find us when you use the money. I might as well give it all to you, and you can just make arrangements." ”

Of course Ye Lingyao would not just give it away, she was not a fool.

Just give her the money. If this person takes the money and runs away, wouldn't it mean that her work has been in vain?

But aren’t there still witnesses?

Village Chief Yang is still standing behind.

People were looking at them in stunned silence.

The village chief is considered the most virtuous and respected person in the village. Since others admire him, his words will naturally have weight. Even if this person really ran away with the money, they can recover it as long as the village chief testifies.

The monk can't escape from the temple. Aren't his family members also in the village?

So she wasn't worried at all that this person would run away.

But after hearing what he said, Zhao Shi became even more panicked.

To be honest, he had never seen so much money in his life, how could he just use it with such peace of mind?

Even if it wasn't for him, he would feel very flustered as long as the money was in his hand.

But seeing Ye Lingyao trusting him so much, he felt very happy.

He asked himself that he didn't do anything to make this girl trust her, but she gave him so much money.

This is definitely a sign of trust in him!

How could he disrespect other people's trust.

Of course this is not possible!

So he turned to the village chief and said righteously, "Village Chief, I have to trouble you for this matter. Please help us establish a document. You can also be a witness."

After all, the village chief is also a person who has seen the world. After the initial shock, he quickly came to his senses.

After hearing that he was asked to be a witness, the two of them immediately raised money to build a house, and he happily agreed.

"Okay, then you can come back with me. I happen to have pen and paper at home, so I can help you write a note."

Ye Lingyao wanted to say no, but Zhao Shi had already followed the village chief hand and foot, so she had no choice but to follow.

Ye Lingzhi also didn't expect that she would trust a stranger so much.

He casually took out 100 taels and handed it to the person. That was 100 taels!

On the way, he even asked, "Why did you just give so much at once?"

He thought, after all, it was a stranger who gave so much money at once, so weren't he afraid of him running away?

There are actually 50 taels of silver notes, even if they are given separately.

But Ye Lingyao shook her head, "It's not necessary. Giving one piece is a gift, and giving two is a gift. After all, we can't save the money. It's better to give it directly, which can also show our trust in others. They can also be more attentive when building their houses.”

Ye Lingzhi was also a little surprised.

"You still know so much?"

What exactly is going on in this little girl's mind? She has a pretty good grasp of people's hearts.

Didn't you see Zhao Shi just now and wanted to grin behind his ears?

It's enough to show that this girl's idea is right.

Ye Lingyao looked at him thoughtfully, but still explained, "Of course, this approach is only suitable for people with conscience and good character. If it is a greedy person, I am afraid that the 100 taels of silver will be lost." , it’s really going to be in vain.”

Ye Lingzhi twitched his lips and said, "I understand."

But he still remembered it in his mind.

When everyone returned to the village chief's house, they recorded Zhao Shi's receipt of 100 taels of silver from the Ye family, and added that the village chief was a witness.

The three of them signed their names and pressed their fingerprints, and the matter was settled.

There are three copies, the village chief keeps one copy, and each of the two families takes one copy.

As for the source of the money, Zhao Shi also has an account in his mind. He will write it down carefully. Where every money is spent, it will eventually be handed over to the Ye family brothers and sisters.

After everything was done, Ye Lingyao asked, "Uncle Zhao, I heard that when you build a house, you need to take care of food, right?"

Zhao Shi nodded when he heard her say, "I'm in charge of one meal. The master needs to prepare the lunch meal."

Ye Lingyao frowned, "Grandpa, village chief, you also know what's going on in our family. We can't do all the cooking. I wonder if you have anyone you can recommend who can help cook a meal for these uncles. Don’t worry, we will pay you.”
