A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Chen Changsheng and others came in. Inside was a very small courtyard. There was a small round table and two chairs in the center of the courtyard. Master Zhan usually read and wrote on the table.

One main room is used as a bedroom, and there is a small side room used as a kitchen.

There were some signs of water leakage on the outer wall of the main house, and the paper on the wooden windows was also damaged in several places.

This yard is definitely not enough for a family to live in, but it is just right for one person to live in, and it is easy to take care of.

"Magistrate Bai and Mrs. Chen, you two sit here for a moment while I go make tea." After finishing speaking, Master Zhan got into the kitchen.

Chen Changsheng and Magistrate Bai sat down and continued to talk about what happened just now.

"County Magistrate Bai, the price of bricks in the city is one penny for two red bricks. My price is two penny for five red bricks, but you have to find an ox cart to pull the bricks."

Find the bullock cart yourself.

Bai Xiao tapped his fingers on the table while listening to what she said.

Chen Changsheng continued to speak slowly, "The power of your government is naturally greater than mine, and you know more people. If you go to the cattle market to rent some bullock carts to haul goods, there will definitely be a lot of people who will rent them out."

Bai Xiao agreed with these words in his heart.

Since he came to Baishui County to take up his post, there have indeed been a lot of gentleman bosses looking for him. As long as he asks, he can borrow things directly, let alone rent them.

It's just that he is unwilling to use his reputation to take advantage of others for free. It is still easy to rent an ox cart at the market price.

A man standing nearby muttered in a low voice, "In the cattle market, the rental fee for a cow is twenty cents a day, and one cart can pull a thousand bricks. If it pulls five hundred thousand bricks, it means ten taels of silver." Fee. If we add red bricks, how much money will it cost?"

Master Zhan, who was busy in the kitchen, came out and put two cups of tea on the table, "Come, let's have a sip of tea."

Chen Changsheng took a sip of tea and said, "Two cents for five red bricks, half a million bricks is two hundred taels of silver, plus the shipping fee..."

"A total of two hundred and ten taels."

She and Bai Xiao spoke at the same time.

"Then it's settled, when does Mrs. Chen plan to start construction?" Bai Xiao struck while the iron was hot.

Chen Changsheng said, "After the kiln opening ceremony is held tomorrow morning, the construction can officially start."

"The kiln opening ceremony? It sounds quite interesting. I also want to watch it tomorrow. Is it convenient?"

This is the first relatively large project under Bai Xiao's administration since he took office, and it is in the village. He really wants to see it in person.

"Mrs. Chen, to be honest, I also want to take a look." Master Zhan stroked his beard and said with a smile.

When he wrote the management charter for Chen Changsheng, he felt that the charter was indeed well drafted, and he didn't know which brick kiln factory was managed according to this.

Especially for a knowledgeable woman like Chen Changsheng, Master Zhan always felt that she was not an ordinary country woman.

Chen Changsheng thought in his heart: [Is she relying on the government? It was so sudden...]

Since the county magistrate took the initiative to speak, it was naturally difficult for her to refuse.

Chen Changsheng told the location and address of Chenjia Village, and the boy beside him secretly wrote it down.

Bai Xiao looked at Master Zhan and said, "Since Mr. Zhan Ge is also going, then I will come here to pick you up tomorrow, and we will go together."

The three of them chatted for a while and then dispersed.

Chen Changsheng drove the bullock cart towards Shen Mansion.

On the way, she remembered that Mrs. Chen had asked two brothers, Jin and Yin, to plow the four acres of land for her yesterday, just waiting for the animal fertilizer to be put into the ground.

It’s just that I only raise dozens of chickens, ducks and one cow at home. Not to mention the lack of manure, composting alone takes a long time to ferment. Chicken manure can take up to fifteen days at the fastest, and other animal manure can even take up to a month to ferment and decompose.

It took too long, and Chen Changsheng was worried that he couldn't wait any longer.

When she was approaching the door of Shen's mansion, she simply stopped the oxcart and turned on her bracelet. She directly placed an order for fermented chicken manure, duck manure and a little cow manure at the mall. She also bought a few bags of compound fertilizer and asked the store for a few. After being bagged, everything is on the road in an instant.

Chen Changsheng got off the bullock cart, mixed the animal fertilizer and compound fertilizer together, mixed them into several large sacks, and was loading them onto the bullock cart when Dafu came out.

Chen Dafu stuffed all these bags into the carriage with quick hands and feet, and couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what are these? Why are they so heavy?"

"Mom just went to the shop to buy some fertilizer. Let's seize the time to fertilize the ground today. When the brick kiln factory starts construction, we won't have time."

Chen Changsheng leaned on the frame of the carriage, while Dafu was responsible for driving the carriage. The two of them walked back to Chenjiacun.

**

Mrs. Liu was the only one in the yard, and her three children had all gone out to work.

She was rubbing a handful of yellow mud in her hand, which she had just dug back from the river in the morning.

Next to it is the newly made mosquito coil mold last night. Liu's son is currently using yellow clay to test whether the mold can be successful.

She was rubbing it vigorously when she caught a glimpse of a withered hand suddenly reaching out from behind. Liu was so shocked that she jumped to the side, "Oh, what a ghost in broad daylight. It scared me to death."

After she calmed down, Ms. Liu finally saw clearly that the owner of this hand was her sister-in-law's mother, Ms. Cai.

There were two other people standing behind Cai, namely Zhao Daming and Li Dalang.

Ms. Cai said rudely, "What are you screaming about in broad daylight? My old woman hasn't said anything yet, but you are shocked. You are not a young lady, how can you be so delicate?"

Then he stared at Mrs. Liu up and down, "Who are you? Why are you in Daya's courtyard? Where is Zhao Daya? Where did the money go?"

The last time Ms. Cai rolled around on the pile of cow dung in this courtyard, she lost all face. Zhao Daming was also punched. After the mother and son rolled back to Zhaojiacun in embarrassment, they were scolded by their daughter-in-law again. .

Unexpectedly, Zhao Lizheng came to the door soon after, and as soon as he entered, he cursed at Mr. Cai. She said that her old wife was useless at teaching her son, and that she was a loser in the local vegetable business and that she didn't make money for Zhaojiacun. In turn, she extorted Zhao Lizheng's thirty taels of silver.

Zhao Lizheng finally said that the thirty taels of silver must be compensated by his wife's family, otherwise Zhao Daya, the money-losing guy, would never want to set foot in Zhaojia Village again. Zhao Lizheng also wanted to send Mrs. Cai to see an official and accuse her of blackmail.

Ms. Cai was so frightened that she became increasingly angry as she thought about it.

Damn it, this old lady has lived for so many years, but she was pooped and peed on her head by a loser. How can she stand in front of her eldest daughter-in-law after word spreads.

And that Li Dalang was also a coward who dared to throw her mother and son down and run away alone.

Ms. Cai rushed to Lijiazhuang and scolded Li Dalang bloody, and then used Chen Changsheng as bait again. What is "As long as you take the money-losing goods, the big scalper will belong to you Li Dalang, and the grain and money will also belong to you Li Dalang."

These words made Li Dalang feel itchy again. The three of them summed it up and finally clapped their hands and decided to come again today.
