After fleeing the wasteland and farming, he made a rebellion

"Wait until I talk to the magistrate." Qu Tongzhi had already planned to use Ji Xingze's way of persuading him to persuade the prefect of Qi.

After all, the prefect of Qi has three sons who are going to end up, and if there is a number one scholar on the sidelines to give advice, the results will definitely be different.

After making a decision, Qu Tongzhi hurried back to the government office to discuss the matter with Qi Zhifu, while Mrs. Qu left Ji Xingze and Sun Fuxi for lunch.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Qu couldn't help but taste Sun Ji's small pickles.

Born in the south at the beginning, she still had trouble eating when she grew up in the south.Seeing how delicious her son's food was, she couldn't help but tasted two more mouthfuls, but she didn't expect that the more she ate, the more she craved it.After eating other meat dishes, I didn't feel so greasy, and I ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.

After lunch, Ji Xingze and Sun Fuxi said goodbye to Mrs. Qu.

Seeing that they insisted on leaving, Mrs. Qu asked Nanny Li to come over with two bank notes, one for each of them, saying it was a meeting gift and they had to accept it.

When Ji Xingze and Sun Fuxi saw the denominations of the banknotes in their hands, they were a little dumbfounded, "Cousin, this is too much, we can't accept it." Ji Xingze refused on behalf of Sun Fuxi, that was 100 taels per person!

"Why are you being polite to your cousin?" Mrs. Qu held Ji Xingze's hand and forced the bank note back, "If the Lin family's property hadn't been taken by Aunt Wang and the others," before she could finish speaking, Ji Xingze interrupted forcefully, "My cousin must never mention this again in the future."

"I know, I'm just a little angry." Thinking about the eldest brother's family and the death of her mother, is she not only angry?

"People who do all kinds of bad things will have retribution sooner or later, Cousin just needs to wait and see." Ji Xingze persuaded.

"Well," Mrs. Qu nodded, "Yes! I want to see how long they can dance around?"

Taking the bank note from Madam Qu again, Sun Fuxi felt very hot.It's only natural for Ji Xingze to accept this money as a nephew, how shameless she is as an outsider!

Just when she was about to say no again, she heard Ji Xingze say: "Spiritual nourishing wood beads are worth a thousand gold, since this is my cousin's wish, you just keep it."

While his words reassured Sun Fuxi, he also clearly told Mrs. Qu that the 100 taels she gave Sun Fuxi was not too much, so don't think that it was because of him that she paid 100 taels for nothing.

Mrs. Qu knew the elegant meaning when she heard the string song, and immediately said: "You girl, if you let you keep it, you can keep it. Why are you being polite with your cousin?" She joked, "When you go back, don't forget to let my little girl take care of you." The cousin who has never met, get those jewelry boxes for me."

"This is for sure." Sun Fuxi sweetly agreed, and also accepted the 100 taels.

"By the way," Mrs. Qu said again, "I won't give money to my relatives. But don't bother to return the extra wood."

"Then I don't know how many jewelry boxes my cousin wants to make?" Mrs. Qu gave a lot of wood this time, most of which she had never seen or recognized.Sun Fuxi asked this question in order to let her father know what to do, so that she and Ji Xingze could discuss the style after returning home.

Mrs. Qu thought for a while, "Six, six or six will go smoothly."

"Are there any other requirements? Do you want six of the same style, or two of the same style, a total of three?"

Mrs. Qu thought about it again, "Then let's make them all the same, and they will look neat when placed together."

"Well, I'll ask my dad to do it first when we go back. If you need anything, or if you have any changes, just send us a message." After a pause, Sun Fuxi said with a little shyness, "Right now, at home It's a bit messy, after the construction is completed, please have time for my cousin, uncle and cousin to live there for a while."

"Then let's just talk about it like this." Mrs. Qu readily agreed.

After a few short contacts, Sun Fuxi felt that Mrs. Qu was really capable.Even when they met for the first time and didn't know that Ji Xingze was her nephew, she, a local second-in-command wife, could take people to the roadside stalls, and she was quite approachable when shopping.Now even if it is superficial to their Sun family, it can only be said that this person has a certain pattern.

Ji Xingze also felt that his aunt was really good, so he risked being beheaded to secretly recognize her, and he also made plans to keep in touch with her frequently in the future.

Just as Mrs. Qu sent them out, Ji Xingze suddenly stopped and looked around, took out the compass to measure it, and then asked Mrs. Qu solemnly: "Cousin, the previous manager of this house What happened to the master?"

"The last master?" Mrs. Qu was a little confused, "I heard that he died in an accident. It is precisely because of this that your cousin got such a position and came here to take up the post."

Qu Tongzhi was born in the top three and Jinshi. If it weren't for the remote location and no one coming here, he wouldn't be able to use some money to get promoted two grades to take up the post here.

The mansions of officials released outside are all allocated by the imperial court, and the previous owner here is also the previous co-prefect.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Mrs. Qu was a little frightened by Ji Xingze's posture.

"It's not a big deal, even if it was, it was blocked by the previous owner of the house."

Ji Xingze didn't want to scare people and just said this lightly, but it was still scary.Mrs. Qu tremblingly asked: "Do you need to do something, crack it?"

Not to mention her, even Sun Fuxi felt that this place was a bit scary.Then I heard Ji Xingze say: "If possible, I suggest buying the house of the family on the right, and then changing the layout here, then it will be good for my uncle's official career and my cousin's studies. "Now this house is not stable, and the missing corner on the right side will affect the family's fortune.

"Then what if that family doesn't sell it?" Mrs. Qu didn't want to buy and sell by force, for fear of affecting Qu Tongzhi's reputation.

"Then we can only change the current house."

"Then should I ask someone else to change it? Or can Xingze do it for you?"

"It's not difficult. If my cousin trusts me, I'll do it in the future."

"You are my nephew, if I don't believe you, who else can I trust?" Mrs. Qu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Then when will I change it? Where can I find a better mason?" Since she chose to trust Ji Xingze, she I want to leave it all to him to help.

"There will be no soil in the first month. Let's discuss this matter after the beginning of spring. As for the masons?" Ji Xingze looked at Sun Fuxi, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Of course." Sun Fuxi replied with a smile, "Actually, as soon as you told my cousin, I wanted to take over the job."

Mrs. Qu's mouth twitched after hearing this, "The bricklayer Xingze wants to recommend is Fuxi, right?"

"Of course not." Infected by Sun Fuxi's smile, Ji Xingze changed his seriousness just now, "But I can definitely leave this matter to my cousin."

"Oh?" Mrs. Qu was still a little confused, "Is it really possible to leave this matter to Fuxi?"

"To tell you the truth, my cousin, the Sun family will recruit people to build houses everywhere during the slack season in the future. It will definitely be no problem to leave this matter to them."

"So that's how it is! Anyway, I don't know much about this matter, and we are newcomers and we are afraid of being fooled. It would be best for the Fuxi family to take over this matter." Mrs. Qu didn't feel that Ji Xingze was the Sun family. What's wrong with soliciting business.On the contrary, it is no problem to identify Sun Wangui to build a house based on only a few boxes carved by Sun Wangui. It seems that he has forgotten that there is a world of difference between a carpenter and a mason.

However, this matter was really difficult for the Sun family. The victims living in the inn had already been registered by Sun Fuxi, and he also specially noted what they were good at. Among them were several masons.

Knowing this, Sun Fuxi discussed with everyone in the Sun family that their family would be a "contractor" in the future. Not only everyone in the Sun family, but even Ji Xingze had heard of this term for the first time.

After hearing Sun Fuxi's explanation, everyone immediately felt that this title was very appropriate.

That's right, Sun Fuxi just wanted to find another way. You can hire long-term workers to help you farm, so why can't you hire various craftsmen to form a contract team?Since building a house in modern times is one of the best ways to make money, it should also make money in ancient times!In the future, their family will not only open an inn and be the owner, open up wasteland and farm land as landlords, but also work as contractors.

"Then we can't break the ground right now, what should we do?" Mrs. Qu asked anxiously, "You don't know, I still can't let go of this heart, if there is no way to control it, I'm afraid I will have a hard time this year." alright."

"Don't worry, Cousin," Ji Xingze said, "When I get back, I'll draw a few Five Elements and Eight Diagrams blessings, and you can ask someone to post them in the bedroom, main room, gate, etc."

Sun Fuxi followed and said, "You can use these five elements and eight trigrams blessings for the time being. Afterwards, I will ask someone to embroider beautiful embroidery for my cousin. Not only can it be used during the New Year, but it will also look good when placed or hung later."

"Okay," Mrs. Qu nodded, "Then you two have to hold on to this matter. As for the jewelry box, you can put it back."

"Biao Aunt, you really don't have to worry too much, the previous evil spirit has indeed been blocked by the original owner here." Ji Xingze did not forget to repeat his comfort.

"I see." Mrs. Qu said this, but she still felt the shock in her heart. After saying goodbye to the two of them, she gave herself and Qu Tongzhi the peace talisman she had asked for in the temple. one.

When Sun Fuxi and Ji Xingze got into their carriage, Sun Fuxi took the 100 taels of silver note and looked at it repeatedly.He also excitedly discussed with Ji Xingze: "Cousin, what are you going to do with the 100 taels?"

Ji Xingze thought for a while and replied: "100 taels seems like a lot, but we have too many things to do, and it's not enough at all. Think about it, after the beginning of spring, we need to open up wasteland, buy cattle, farm tools, and build Housing, which one can’t be spent, and it will cost a lot of money?”

"Yes!" Hearing what he said, Sun Fuxi suddenly felt that the 100 taels were not enough for what to do.Especially now that they are eating and living in an inn. After their family is not in a hurry to build a house, she feels that she should either not build it first, or build the best house if she wants to. If she wants to do it in one step, she will only need more money .
