"An ordinary adobe house can be purchased for a few taels of silver. If you want to build a brick house, it will definitely be more expensive, at least more than ten taels of silver."

"What bricks and tiles you want to choose have different prices. It all depends on your own plans. If you are sure you want to repair it, then I will go over and take a look first to measure how big the house is."

"I'll come back and do the sum total at that time. I'll give you a quotation and see if you can accept it. If you can accept it, I'll arrange workers here immediately. What do you think?"

After listening, Li Zheng nodded, "Okay, then I'll bother you to go take a look. Our village is all new arrivals. If the price is right, we may not be the only ones building houses."

"Okay, if this business can be done, I will definitely give the old man some love."

"It doesn't matter, I don't want any money, as long as you give the villagers a fair price." Li Zheng waved his hand quickly. He was afraid that if the other party gave him money and the villagers knew about it, his reputation would be ruined.

When Chen Lazi saw this, he immediately explained, "It's not what you think. This is not a bribe. It's just the salary you gave me to introduce the business to me. This is the same as the money you gave me to build a house for you."

"No, no, no, I can't accept it. Anyway, don't mention it in the future. When you have free time, come to Xinmin Village for a visit. I'll go back today and write down on paper all the families who want to build houses."

"Okay, uncle, walk slowly. I'll be here early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then if there are any problems, you can inform us directly and we will discuss it."

"Okay, uncle, let's go slowly. You guys, please go slowly." Chen Lazi stood up and said goodbye to everyone.

After leaving Chen Lazi's house, Shen Yan asked, "Dad, what if she offers a high price?"

"Do you think that a mason in her situation, who has elderly people to support at home and needs money to support herself, can charge exorbitant prices?"

"It seems impossible." Shen Yan thought for a while and said.

"Yes, she works so hard because she wants to support the elderly, so she will definitely not do the hammer business. I believe the price she gives must be fair. If it is not fair, we will find a mason again. After all, it is us Lots of choices.”

Li Zheng, Shen Yan and others also felt that what their father said was reasonable and couldn't help but nod.

As soon as the oxcart returned to the village, Li Zheng asked his son to tell the villagers the news, telling them: "Whoever wants to build a house should come to our house and I will register it."

"Okay." All three sons went to the village to inform the news. After a while, several families came one after another.

The Shen family was not short of money, so this meeting came as soon as possible. "Uncle Li Zheng, our family is going to build a house." Shen Nan walked up to Li Zheng with a smile.

Li Zheng nodded. Their family bought more than three acres of homestead land at once, and it was impossible not to build a house, so he was not surprised that she came.

"I will go to the city today and find a mason. I think she is quite honest, so I asked her to come to the village tomorrow to see the situation. If the price is right, I can hand over the business to her then."

"Okay, I believe in Uncle Li Zheng's vision. If he says it's okay, it will definitely work." Shen Nan flattered him casually.

"Okay, stop being poor and tell me your family's requirements." Li Zheng knocked on the paper on the table and said.

"Okay, we are going to build three apartments, one for me and my brother, my sister and my brother-in-law, and the other for Brother Wei and the others. If anyone gets married in the future, we will build a new house."

"Our family needs seven rooms..." Shen Nan said her request in one breath. Li Zheng looked at such an inhumane girl, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

Their family only plans to build five rooms, and they even plan to build their own huts, but this girl wants seven. Isn't this sheer inhumanity?

But if you buy such a large piece of land, it will be wasted if it is left empty. No matter what, they have money anyway, and they can do whatever they want with it, and he can just keep records.

As Li was thinking about it, she wrote down all her requests on paper.

"Well, I have remembered all this. When she comes here tomorrow, you can come to me again and explain your requirements to them in detail. But Erya, you guys are building so many houses in one go. I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money, so you have to make plans."

"Uncle Li Zheng, don't worry. My brother-in-law has money, and he will pay for it. If it's gone, I have the brains to make more money."

After saying that, Shen Nan went home, leaving Li Zheng alone with his mouth twisted, unable to calm down.

Why are all the children of the Shen family outstanding, but none of his three sons are smart? It's really annoying to compare one person to another.

No, the third child of the Shen family is not as smart as the two elder sisters. It seems that the Shen family is not all smart people!

Li Zheng felt a little relieved when he thought about it.

Before dinner, all the villagers who wanted to build houses came to register. Li Zheng looked at the thirteen households on the paper and was slightly worried. There were also about twenty households, and they planned to build a small shed to live in.

But it's almost autumn. It's usually fine, but it's unbearably cold at night. How can these people survive living in thatched huts?

Early the next morning, Chen Lazi brought someone over to check the situation. Li Zheng gave her the list of houses to be built. After she read it, she went door to door to inquire. Shen He was afraid that she would not understand, so he stayed with her all the time.

Chen Lazi spent the whole day wandering around the village, looking at the villagers' homesteads, calculating prices, and asking them about their wishes.

When they arrived at Shen's house, Shen Nan chatted with her very well. Shen Nan saw that she was young and very solid in terms of speaking and professional knowledge, unlike those half-baked people who didn't know everything.

She was so impressed that she was so powerful at this age, and couldn't help but wonder if she could do better than her if she were in such an environment.

Nian also liked this girl very much, sympathized with her plight, and brought her food and drink.

Because of this behavior, Chen Lazi kept the cost to the lowest for them and used good materials.

"Thank you, Xiao Chen, for coming to my aunt's house for dinner when you have time. Auntie will prepare delicious food for you." Nian said to Chen Lazi with a smile on her face.

"Yeah, okay." Chen Lazi said with a smile. Although the Shen family was not a wealthy family, they knew the rules very well and were very particular about them. They did not look down upon her just because she was a mason.

She likes this kind of family, so she will try her best to help them get things done.

Thinking like this, Chen Lazi's mind came alive. After saying goodbye to Nian, she went back to gather workers. There were hundreds of workers under her. As long as she said something, they would be able to find them soon.
