The Prestigious Family’s Young lady and the Farmer

Yang Tiezhu said it would be four acres. The three families and the couple do not have enough money, and their ideas are simple, and they don't have the set of Lin Qingwan's, so they said they would buy two acres.

Two mu of land is not big enough to build a house, and a countryman’s house is not big, but there are also vegetable gardens, pigsties, livestock sheds, etc. Generally, two mu is enough for people to buy, but Yang Tiezhu said that four mu is a little bit. big.

Why are you buying so many places, usually two acres are about the same. Li Zheng asked in confusion.

Yang Tiezhu scratched his head, I just thought that I would buy it right now. When there are more children, it will be more spacious, and it will be more convenient to build a house. Of course, these are all excuses, and he certainly cannot tell Li Zheng the truth. .

Yang Tiezhu, who has always been sincere, has learned to speak and hide a little bit after Lin Qingwan's training, and during this period of time he has been running business outside. But he didn't really lie, he just said it vaguely.

Li Zheng was a mature man, and of course he could hear the ambiguity in other people's mouths. What's more, other people have to spend money to buy land, and it's not for nothing, he cares about so much.

You can do it, kid, have you made a fortune?

Yang Tiezhu smiled naively, Don't say that, Uncle Lizheng, what kind of money you make, it's just because you have less land in your family, and you can't support your family, so you do a little business with friends and make a little money.

This statement was taught to him by Lin Qingwan. When the family suddenly wants to build a house, someone will definitely ask. Even if people don't know it at first, they will know it later. So I made a small business with my friends on the pretext that it was difficult to support my family. As for what kind of small business, generally people who knew a little about the world would not ask.

Lizheng is the one who understands the world, so he didn't ask any more questions, and just said the price of the land used as a homestead.

The land at the end of the village is worthless, only one or two silver per mu. Yang Tiezhu and the two brothers bought a lot, and Lizheng was calculated on the basis of one tael per mu, and received a total of 6 taels.

Because buying land has to go to the government to file a deed, all of which need to spend money, which is commonly known as 'construction cost'. Yang Tiezhu gave Li Zheng another 2 taels of silver and asked him to complete the deeds of the two brothers. As for the extra money, it should be regarded as Lizheng's hard work.

Li Zheng pushed it twice, but he didn't push it away, so he took the money and asked them to come here for two days to get the title deed on their behalf.

After he finished speaking, Yang Tiezhu thought for a while, and then said to Li Zheng with an embarrassed look on his face, asking him to help keep the two brothers' buying land and building a house a secret.

Li Zheng looked at the embarrassed expressions on the two brothers' faces, and thought of the shrew He's from the Yang family, plus the utility of the favorable fee just now, he nodded quickly and agreed.

Yang Tiezhu thanked Li Zheng again before leaving, and Li Zheng sent the two out of the door with a look of I understand.

When they got home, Lin Qingwan and Yao shi bought it knowingly, and they were all happy and delighted.

Two days later, after the land deed in Lizheng was completed, Yang Tiezhu went over and took it back.

Once you get the title deed, you will start building the house.

When the villagers of Luoxia Village build houses, they usually ask the villagers to help. Those who are close to each other will manage two meals at noon and evening, and everyone will help you build the house without any wages.

Yang Tiezhu knew very well that his family was very busy. Someone had to make the preserved meat by hand, and he and his third brother had to go out to deliver. Where's the free time to stare at building a house?

Thinking of this, Yang Tiezhu's head is so big that he can't wait to give birth to three heads and six arms.

The three-bedroom couple is also very worried. They have land and money, but they don't have time to build a house. You can't just leave the Laweixian side and leave it alone. It's definitely not acceptable. If you stop for a day, you will lose a lot of money, and you can't build a house in three or two days.

This time, without Lin Qingwan talking to them about the idea of ​​conversion, Yang Tiezhu decided to ask the clay tile team to come over to help build the house.

Isn't it just a question of wages, so there's more money to be made here. Anyway, the preserved meat can never be stopped. Everyone knows how difficult it is to maintain the current situation.

The third room also decided to invite the mud tile team to build the house together with the second room. Although it may cost a lot of money, they can also make a lot of money here. After Lin Qingwan's edification, and Xia Dacheng's advice from time to time, the three-bedroom couple can now settle accounts, at least there is still some idea of ​​​​conversion.

After the agreement was reached, Yang Tiezhu got busy.

When he was in town, he knew the head of a masonry team. The man's surname was Lu and he was in his forties. People who are familiar with him call him Uncle Lu. He is very good at building houses. He has a team of people who build houses for people everywhere on weekdays. When you have big jobs, pick up guys, and when you don't have big jobs, take small tinkering jobs to make a living.

Yang Tiezhu was very familiar with him. At the beginning, Uncle Lu even gave him some strength in the past because of the lack of manpower.

Uncle Lu is a real person, and his love is his love. When Yang Tiezhu gave him work, he paid him the price. Uncle Lu said that love is love, life is life, everyone is the breadwinner, and I can't let you help me in vain.

Therefore, Yang Tiezhu has always admired Uncle Lu very much.

When I found Uncle Lu and talked to him, Uncle Lu heard that he built a house by himself, so he took it without saying a word. The wages are paid according to the market price, because it is a big job, or two houses, and the wages are reduced by 10%.

After the agreement was reached, Yang Tiezhu began to discuss with Uncle Lu how to build the house. For clarity, he also showed Uncle Lu the floor plan drawn by Lin Qingwan on the red lacquer board at home.

Because Lin Qingwan's painting was very brief at the beginning, it was just an outline, Uncle Lu

After reading it, I don't think the person who drew this picture is so terrifying. I just feel that this person is very careful and considers all aspects. It's just that the drawings are rough, how detailed you want to be able to draw with a red lacquered charcoal head.

Coupled with Yang Tiezhu's explanation, he almost understood how to build the house.

In the end, Yang Tiezhu mentioned that he wanted to build a brick courtyard wall. Uncle Lu made a guess in his heart, smacked his lips and shook his head, but didn't say anything else, that is, it would be very expensive.

The four-acre yard is all built with brick walls. How many bricks are there?

Seeing that Yang Tiezhu didn't understand, Uncle Lu explained to him about how many bricks to use, how much silver per brick, and the two-person-high courtyard wall. Counting the ground, it would cost nearly 50 taels of silver to build a courtyard wall alone.

Yang Tiezhu did not expect that a brick wall would cost so much money, and he wondered how much the brick wall in Lizheng's house would cost. On second thought, Lizheng's house is only how old, and the wall is not high, it looks like one person is tall. His homestead alone has four acres.

He smiled wryly, feeling that it was a mistake to buy so many homesteads.

But he and his daughter-in-law had imagined at the beginning that when the house was built, it would need such a big place, and then the backyard was reserved for a large space. Of course, the small workshop also took up a lot of space, but these were all necessary.

For a while, he couldn't pay attention, so he told Uncle Lu to go home and discuss with his daughter-in-law.

Uncle Lu didn't say anything else and sent him out.

When I went back and told Lin Qingwan about it, Lin Qingwan was also surprised. She knew that Yang Tiezhu wanted to build a courtyard wall with bricks, but she didn't expect to spend so much money.

But after thinking about it, I realized that it is true that a brick is only big. Their house covers an area of ​​four acres, and then forms a circle. The minimum is two people tall.

But to be honest, Lin Qingwan didn't think it was too expensive for more than 50 taels of silver. Because she can imagine how many bricks to use, and the manpower and material resources behind making this brick.

Yang Tiezhu also thought of this, but he still felt a little distressed. They have some money now, but no one will say that it is expensive for you to spend 50 taels to build a house, but when it is replaced by a courtyard wall, the psychology is especially subtle.

It's not that Yang Tiezhu is reluctant to spend money, but there is always a feeling of worthlessness.

Lin Qingwan understood that kind of psychology, but she thought more. The house has already been built, but this wall is still missing. Could it be possible for you to build a large tile-roofed house and build a wall with mud?

Well, there are many large tile houses in Luoxia Village with soil embryo courtyard walls. But Lin Qingwan just felt that something was wrong, just like when you bought a diamond ring, the ring setting is a real diamond, but the bottom ring is made of iron, how to think and how to respond.

The head has been kowtowed 99 times, still care about this worship?

Lin Qingwan began to patiently explain the difference with Yang Tiezhu. First of all, the brick wall looked good, and then the wall was solid, and there was no need to repair it every now and then. There are too many shortcomings in the wall of the soil embryo. Lin Qingwan gave Yang Tiezhu an example one by one.

First of all, when it rains hard, water flows along the walls. The Yang family is the courtyard wall, so Lin Qingwan has seen water flowing from the courtyard wall when it rains. After that, the wall needs to be repaired every one and a half years. The soil embryos are punched out, and the wind and rain will dry, especially when it rains and snows, and the damage is very fast. The most important thing is that their home is big, and the wall must be long. After that, it will not be exhausting to repair the wall.

It's nothing to be tired, but they will be busy with business in the future, where is there any spare time to repair the wall from time to time. It is better to build a brick wall once and for all if you have a little effort to repair the wall, and it is not afraid of wind or rain and is still stable. The most important thing is to save time. The free time can be used for more trips to the bacon-flavor business. Of course, you can also say that you can ask a mason to come over to repair the wall, but that doesn't mean you have to pay someone else, and it's a lot of expense over the years...

Saying this, Yang Tiezhu felt that what his daughter-in-law said was quite reasonable.

Spend some money and save trouble later.

Lin Qingwan also proposed to build the courtyard wall first, and then start building the house. Having said that, no villagers went over to ask curiously, and everyone was sullen and built the house before talking about it. Since you don't want to attract attention, you simply hide it to the end. When the house was built, no one knew what it would look like. At that time, it was said that the house was near the foot of Luoxia Mountain, and a strong courtyard wall was built for safety.

Yang Tiezhu has no opinion on this. He originally wanted to keep a low profile and not attract people's attention. That's fine.

The next day, Yang Tiezhu went to Uncle Lu again, and after finalizing the wall, he built it with bricks.

Uncle Lu was very surprised, but didn't say anything. Since others have decided this way, they must have enough money in their hands. Yang Tiezhu also knew that he was very good at hunting, and money should not be a problem.

Yang Tiezhu told Uncle Lu the requirement to build the courtyard wall first, and euphemistically expressed the idea of ​​not wanting to be seen in the village. Uncle Lu nodded understandingly, he could understand this kind of thinking.
