Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

"Don't worry, everyone, listen to me first, because I am in a hurry to live in the house. If I only hire one of you, it will definitely not be completed in three or two months, so I would like to ask you to cooperate and each person is responsible for a part. , The construction period is shortened as much as possible. The main house is more complicated, and the construction can be started by two groups of people. One team is responsible for the paving of the subordinate houses and the corridor workshop in the backyard. Finally, a team is required to be responsible for all the courtyard walls. Stacked, 230 acres of land, from left to right, all the land should be built with a two-meter-high courtyard wall, and the top should be capped with broken tiles to prevent the younger generation from climbing the wall. Come, we just need five teams, what do you guys think?"

He raised his hand to interrupt them, Ling Jingxuan's eyes swept one by one, and slowly spoke his thoughts. The area of ​​the house is about 1,000 square meters at most, and the rest he planned to be a factory orchard and a pond. The pond he planned to give Tomorrow, the workers will dig the wasteland, and the orchard will be temporarily left empty. He will fill it in bit by bit in the future. The factory must be built first, and then the jam will be basically made there. At present, the most important thing is the general framework. , it must be completed in less than a month, right?

"The more than two hundred acres of land are all surrounded by the courtyard wall?"

Hearing this, the group of people couldn't help being dumbfounded. They thought that the area would be at most ten acres, but they didn't expect it? ? Where is he holy? What happened to such a wealthy family in Datong Town?

"Well, how many of you might take over?" Obviously unwilling to explain more, Ling Jingxuan asked in a deep voice, all he wanted was the result.

"No problem, but we still have to investigate on the spot. I wonder when it is convenient for Ling Gongzi?"

Several people glanced at each other, and the representative Sun Peng, who had reported himself to his family before, asked that they could formulate a specific construction plan and give an approximate time for completion only after conducting on-site surveys.

"In fact, I hired someone to clear up the wasteland tomorrow, so I hope the construction team to build the courtyard wall will enter the site at the latest the day after tomorrow, and I will prepare the required blue bricks and tiles. As for other projects, it is best to also Start it as soon as possible. As I said earlier, I am in a hurry to live in the house. You can send more people. I have booked a total of 500 taels for the wages. If you can complete the work within a month, I will add another 100 taels. As for the materials , my brother Ling Jingpeng will be in charge of the purchase, just tell him what you need."

This price is undoubtedly very impressive. At six hundred taels a month, the five teams have more than one hundred taels evenly divided. Excluding the wages of the subordinates, it is not a problem to earn dozens of taels. After coming down, Ling Jingxuan smiled with satisfaction: "Then please go to Lingjia Village tomorrow to do a field survey. This hundred taels of silver bills are the deposit I gave. When the house is halfway built, I will give you another two hundred taels. The next one will be settled together after all the completion, do you have any opinion?"

Pushing the 100 taels of silver bills in front of them, Ling Jingxuan has not yet reached the point where he can pay for labor. In fact, he not only earns generous wages, but also intends to manage a meal for the workers every noon in the future. That's why they eat more food. Only when the workers are full can they have the strength to help him live, right? It can't cost a few dollars.

"Okay, Young Master Ling looks like a happy person. We don't have much to say. After we survey the land tomorrow, our construction team will definitely enter the site one after another. Please rest assured, Young Master Ling."

Picking up the banknotes on behalf of everyone, Sun Peng patted his chest boldly, and the others nodded in unison.

"Then see you tomorrow."

"Farewell!"

After sending them away, Ling Jingpeng who was stunned for a long time immediately exclaimed: "Brother, why did you build such a big house? When did you draw this blueprint?"

God knows how shocked he was when he saw the drawings, not only because of the unusual and beautiful buildings on the drawings, but also because of his huge planning. Originally, he thought he would build a three-entry yard at most, dig a pond, and other things. All of them will be planted with fruit trees, did not expect? ? The wages alone are five hundred taels of silver. How much did the whole house cost to build?

No, I can't think about it, his flesh hurts when he thinks about it. At this moment, he can finally understand the feeling of a stingy little nephew. His eldest brother is really not a person who can make a living. How can anyone just make money and spend so much? ? No wonder Xiaowen kept talking about him, "Hehe...the house is very beneficial, don't you and Jinghan have to marry a daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law cannot have children? When the children are older, they must sleep alone. It’s not enough. Besides, apart from the main house, the rest are the subordinate houses, warehouses, factories, etc. Although it seems to be useless at present, you will know next year, those houses are all essential.”

Seeing what my brother was thinking at a glance, Ling Jingxuan smiled slightly, and naturally took the tea cup that Yan Shengrui handed him. Did he think he said that buying half-salt land is just for planting? There are many follow-up plans. At this time next year, maybe they will be rich and rich, and he will be able to pass the addiction of local masters and wealth in ancient times.

"Brother Jingpeng, your eldest brother is not an ordinary person. You are right to hear him, but Brother Ling, wouldn't it be too monotonous for you to build a corridor on an empty pond?"

It's not that he wasn't shocked by Ling Jingxuan's idea of ​​building a house, but Manager Zhang's acceptance was obviously much higher than that of Ling Jingxuan. After reaching out and patting Ling Jingpeng's shoulder, he couldn't help but look at Ling Jingxuan. From the drawings, the corridor should be more than just a passage. The octagonal pavilion is the best proof, but he has long said that the fish raised in the pond are to be sold for money, and it is impossible to raise koi and other species of fish to enjoy. ?

"Hehe... I was just about to trouble my brother. I want to plant fruit trees all around the pond, and a duck shed will be built at the back to keep hundreds of ducks. As for the pond, in addition to fish, I also plan to plant lotus roots. wait till lotus

Isn't the blooming of flowers the best view? As for the fry and lotus root seeds, I have to trouble you, brother, to find out for me. "

As if he had expected such a question, Ling Jingxuan smiled calmly and said, lotus flowers can be admired, lotus pods and lotus roots can be eaten, and if you can't finish eating, you can sell them. How much is an income? As for the pond with a full five acres of land, the money should be enough for him to pay for Xiaobaozi to repair it, right? hey-hey? ? Since he spent so much money to build the manor, he has to find a way to make money from it, right? Otherwise, his little bun won't be able to read him to death?

"Haha?? You really have a trick, okay, I'll help you find out, but lotus root seeds are easy to find, and fry may be a little difficult, you know, basically no one can raise fish in this inland watershed, and fry can only be Shipped from a long distance, the cost is not to mention, and the survival rate is probably lower."

When Mr. Zhang spoke, he became solemn. He was really worried about him. Ling Jingxuan couldn't help but smile when he heard the words. After a while, he raised his head and said, "It's okay, Mr. Zhang will try to help me find out. If it doesn't work, I just want to. The method is to collect fish in several nearby towns tomorrow, and by next year, the fish ponds will still be full of fish, and there will be no worries about no fish fingerlings."

He has the Crescent Moon Spring in his hand, and is he afraid that there will be no fish running into the fish pond by himself? When diverting water, put the Crescent Moon Spring directly into the fish pond. It is estimated that the fish will have to run in in groups. Of course, this is a last resort. If possible, he does not want to arouse suspicion, although others are watching Those who haven't been to Crescent Moon Spring, but they can see fish, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if he can keep a low profile, he still hopes to keep a low profile.

"Well, this is also a way, although it is a little more troublesome and time-consuming."

Nodding in agreement, the shopkeeper Zhang was helpless. After all, he was just a shopkeeper, and he might still have some weight in Datong Town. Once he left the range of Datong Town, he would not be able to help him.

"Nothing can be done overnight. Let's take it slowly and wake up. Brother Zhang, it's really troublesome today. The children at home are still waiting, so we'll go back first."

With that said, Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingpeng nodded, and the three stood up one after another.

"Huh? Have something to eat and then go back. I'll ask the kitchen to make some signature dishes and bring them over."

After standing up, Manager Zhang enthusiastically retained him. If nothing else, he was very optimistic about Ling Jingxuan alone. In several contacts, he had already regarded him as a close friend.

"Next time, to be honest, a lot of troubles have happened at home in the past few days, and I don't worry about my parents and children being at home."

"Sure, then I'll ask someone to pack you a few packets of snacks to bring back. Quan should be my uncle who will add some snacks to the children."

"Then thank you Brother Zhang."

Since it was food for the children, Ling Jingxuan had no reason to refuse it. It was almost a quarter of an hour after they left the Xinyuan Restaurant. The carriage galloped all the way out of the town. The three people in the car were joking from time to time. , They seem to have a little more confidence, but they never dreamed that they would see such a scene when they got home.
