Chapter 61 Building a Yard

All marked places are marked.

"Well, I went to school for a few years before." Mu Zhixu smiled modestly.

Zhou Yun thought to himself, this is not something that can be drawn after a few years of schooling.

He looked at the drawings carefully, and then said to Mu Zhixu, "If you want to build two courtyards like this, it will cost about 200 taels, but it depends on what you plan to use for the courtyard walls. If you use stones, you can save some money." money."

200 taels, about the same as Mu Zhixu's budget.

On the blueprint she drew, the area of ​​each room is not small, and it can be divided into two small rooms.

Moreover, the backyard she set aside is so large that it can be covered with a second entrance, which is why one acre is not enough.

Counting the front yard, it is indeed a bit compact.

"If stones are used, where are the stones?" Mu Zhixu asked with a smile.

Zhou Yun glanced at the village chief.

The village head said directly, "There are stones in Daqing Mountain. You can hire people in the village to carry them back and use stones to build courtyard walls. They are strong and strong. They are not inferior to green bricks, and they are also cheaper!"

This is a reminder.

Mu Zhixu immediately knew what was going on, "Thank you, the village chief, for your reminder. The money in our hands is nothing to build a yard. It would be better if we had stones. Alas, there are no adults at home, otherwise we wouldn't be able to build a house with blue bricks and tiles. "

Selling miserably is still necessary.

When the village head and Zhou Yun heard this, they immediately thought of their situation. They are both half-grown children, and they really need such a house to live in.

It's not that Xiushui Village doesn't have blue brick and tile houses, everyone is at most envious and jealous.

"By the way, this... We are not familiar with it when we first came here, and we don't know where there are blue bricks and materials. Uncle Zhou, do you think you have time now? If so, our two courtyards will bother you!" Mu Zhixu looked at Gu Yun.

Her words hit Zhou Yun's heart.

Now it's the slack season, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so he didn't accept work, and now a big order came, and he was still in the village, which was very convenient.

Just now he was thinking, how to win it.

"Of course there is time, Mu girl, don't worry, I will keep it for you to build it according to the blueprint." Zhou Yun patted his chest.

Everyone called him Uncle Zhou, so he took advantage of the opportunity to call her Mu girl.

"Then I will entrust the full authority to Uncle Zhou, and the remuneration will be according to your standards, Uncle Zhou. By the way, how do you ask the people in the village to work? Do you want to take care of the food?" She remembered that she had to take care of the food.

But now they have no house.

Can't manage food.

The village head and Zhou Yun also knew their situation, thought for a while, and said, "The hiring of workers in the village is all about food, but it depends on the situation. In this way, fifteen yuan a day hires people in the village, regardless of the food?"

This wage is more expensive.

Usually it's ten to twelve coins, but it's justified without lunch.

Also in Mu Zhixu's expectation, she didn't hesitate, "Okay, let's do it like this. Uncle Zhou will count how many people are needed. In short, build the house as soon as possible, and we are waiting to move in."

In other words, it doesn't matter if there are more people, as long as the progress is fast.

"Leave it to me, don't worry, I'll keep it in good condition for you," Zhou Yun said.

Mu Zhixu nodded with a smile. She also saw that Zhou Yun was open and bright, which made it easy for her to talk.

After traveling through many planes, she has long cultivated a pair of fiery eyes, which are [-]% accurate.

But it can also be seen that eight or nine points.

Of course, ugly words must be said first.

"Uncle Zhou, let's talk about it. You are more familiar with the people in the village than I am. Those who work should not be sneaky and sneaky. We are all open-minded people. It will not look good when the time comes."

"Don't worry about that, I have a group of brothers under my command, and they are famous for their quick work." Zhou Yun said immediately.

He has faith in his brother.

"That's good, thank you Uncle Zhou." Mu Zhixu laughed.

After the discussion, Mu Zhixu acted resolutely, and immediately took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the village chief's house, and wrote the agreement. After both parties signed it, she gave Zhou Yun 50 taels of silver.

Please help him to buy the blue brick first.

The village chief looked at the beautifully written agreement, his eyes flickered, and he felt that Mu Zhixu was not simple.

How could a peasant girl write such good handwriting.

Mu Zhixu intentionally said that the status of scholars in ancient times was very high, and there was a huge difference between literate women and illiterate ones.

Even if you are a country girl, if you can read and write, people from all over the world will give priority to asking for marriage.

Of course, she is not for this.

She wanted the village chief to measure their value.

Both sides are smart people, and they know each other well. The village head smiled and measured the homestead for Mu Zhixu's family, and it added an additional acre.

Now it is enough to build two yards.

Seeing that the village chief came to measure the homestead again, the neighbors were a little curious, knowing that Mu Zhixu bought it.

The eyes have changed.

But thinking of how powerful Mu Zhixu is, I feel that it's a matter of course in my heart. She is so powerful that she has no family background to justify.

Hearing that she was going to build a yard for a green brick house, my mind suddenly became alive.

Several young and middle-aged people have the most.

The head of one family named Liu rubbed his hands and walked in front of Mu Zhixu, "Well, Ms. Mu, you have such a big yard, do you want to hire a worker?"

They can also work. Now that it's winter, they can't open up wasteland. They can earn some income for the family. Otherwise, they will continue to eat wild vegetables.

Mu Zhixu smiled, "Of course I will, but I have entrusted Zhou Yun from the village. If you want to work, just go to him and sign up."

The refugees were resettled, and even if the villagers were xenophobic, the village head did not allow Zhou Yun to do so.

Isn't this provoking disputes?What's more, I still build a house for her, she is also a refugee.

So as long as they don't steal and play tricks, they will definitely be selected if they sign up.

After all, the two yards are going on at the same time, and a lot of people are needed.

"Hey, thank you Miss Mu, let's sign up right away!" Old man Liu agreed happily.

He went back and told his family that three of them would go forward to build the house with wood, and the rest would go to Mu Zhixu's house to help.

The other two families did the same.

Du Heng also wanted to go to work, but his sister had no one to take care of her. Fortunately, the girl from the house he rented was kind, and offered to help him take care of her when she found out.

Du Heng took the thank you gift and went to help.

When everyone signed up enthusiastically, everyone in the village also knew about the green brick yard that Mu Zhixu was going to build.

All of them were speechless, as expected, they were the ones who could still own a donkey cart on the way to flee famine.

There is not a donkey cart in the village, but several families own ox carts. Generally speaking, Xiushui Village is actually a wealthy village.

Just as the pot was blowing up in the village, Mu Zhixu looked at the people who came in from the outside, folded his arms around his chest, "Well, you don't..."

"Here you are!" The boy handed over the thing in his hand without waiting for her to speak.

Mu Zhixu stopped talking, looked at the purse in his hand and remained silent for a long time.

"The money for building the yard." Gu Lin pursed her lips, and stuffed the purse into her hand.

 Finally remembered the timing.
