Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times

"Okay, I believe Uncle Liu, then let's give him 1,500 taels of silver!"

She exchanged the silver and banknotes just like last time. Xia Zixuan also knew that Ganoderma lucidum was not as valuable as ginseng. It was mainly because of her spiritual spring water that improved its quality and efficacy, so Manager Liu could give her such a high price, otherwise the silver would probably not be more than half of this.

He put away the silver from the Ganoderma lucidum and the copper coins from the Pinellia ternata, and then asked, "Uncle Liu, do you know anyone who can build a house?"

"Xuan girl, are you going to build a house? I do know someone who builds houses, but I don't know if he is at home now."

"Yes! Our house is uninhabitable when it rains, so we want to rebuild it. Can Uncle Liu take me there? Or Uncle Liu can tell me where his house is."

"How about this! I'll take you with me so you don't have to find where his house is."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Liu." Xia Zixuan carried the backpack and walked out with Manager Liu.

Following Shopkeeper Liu through several streets, we arrived at a house. Shopkeeper Liu raised his hand and knocked on the door. "Is Master Zhou home?"

Shopkeeper Liu said to her, "Master Zhou is an expert in building houses in our town. He never cheats and everyone trusts him."

Before Xia Zixuan could reply to Manager Liu, she heard footsteps coming from inside. The door opened and a boy of about fifteen or sixteen came in.

Seeing that the person coming was Shopkeeper Liu, he asked, "Hello, Shopkeeper Liu, please come in. My father just came back and is at home right now."

Xia Zixuan and Shopkeeper Liu walked into the yard and saw some work tools with dirt on them. It was true that they had just returned. Her luck was really good, Xia Zixuan sighed to herself.

At this time, a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Shopkeeper Liu came out of the room. When he saw Shopkeeper Liu, he said enthusiastically, "Oh, Shopkeeper Liu, you are such a rare guest! What brings you here? Come in and sit down."

"Master Zhou, you are joking." The two followed Master Zhou into the house and sat down. Shopkeeper Liu also said with a smile, "My niece, Miss Xuan, wants to find someone to build a house? She asked me to introduce someone to you. I thought Master Zhou is the best craftsman in our town, so I brought her to you, didn't I?"

He looked at Xia Zixuan next to him, and Shopkeeper Liu introduced the two to each other, "Laixuan girl, this is Master Zhou."

Xia Zixuan stood up and bowed slightly, saying, "Hello, Master Zhou. I wonder if you have any other work at the moment, and how many people do you have?"

Xia Zixuan greeted him and looked at him without beating around the bush, for she was afraid that he still had work to do, so how long should she wait to go?

Master Zhou looked at the little girl in front of him and saw that she spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, and she was not shy like other girls. She was very generous and confident, and she would definitely be good in the future.

"I don't know what kind of house the little girl wants to build. I just finished the work I have today, and I can come to your place anytime. I have fifty people, and if you have people, you can join us, but you have to follow my instructions."

Xia Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "Fifty people is not too many. We have many uncles in the village. I will ask them if they are willing to join us. I want to build the house as soon as possible."

Then he continued, "I have already drawn the blueprints for the house, you just need to build it according to them."

As she spoke, she took out the blueprint and handed it to Master Zhou for him to look at.

Master Zhou was very interested in the new blueprints and said, "Miss Xia, I'm taking over your house. Tomorrow is a good day for groundbreaking. I'll take some of my brothers with me, and the rest will go get bricks and tiles for you."

Xia Zixuan asked about wages and meals again, "Master Zhou, how much do you get paid every day? And do you bring your own cooks, or something like that?"

"The wages are 20 cents per person per day, and we bring our own food."

After listening to Master Zhou, he said, "How about this! The wages are still 20 cents per person, and I will provide lunch every day. You build the house better for me, and don't cut corners."

The main reason she gave them so much money was to get them to do their job well, build the house for her as quickly as possible and without cutting corners.

"Thank you, Miss Xia. Don't worry, we will work hard and build a house for you firmly and quickly."

He also knew that the girl wanted to build the house as soon as possible.

"Okay, then it's settled. I'll live in Qingshan Village..."

She told Master Zhou where she lived, and then said, "Master Zhou, there's nothing else to do. We'll go back first."

Master Zhou stood up and said, "Okay, I'll take Shopkeeper Liu and Miss Xia there."

Xia Zixuan said to Shopkeeper Liu apologetically: "Uncle Liu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I really..."

Shopkeeper Liu waved his hand to interrupt her and said, "What are you talking about? Well, now that we have done our job, let's go back!"

After saying that, he didn't forget to say hello to Master Zhou, "I'll invite you to have a drink together some other day!"

"Hahaha, okay, I'll wait for Manager Liu." Master Zhou said with a smile.

After the two said goodbye to Master Zhou, they returned to Renhe Clinic together. When they arrived at the entrance of the clinic, she thanked Manager Liu and said, "Thank you Uncle Liu for accompanying me on this trip today. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so smooth. I won't go in. I'll come to see Uncle Liu another day."

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, "Okay, Xuan girl, go and get busy first, but don't forget to come and see Uncle Liu!"

"I understand, Uncle Liu. I won't forget it."
