Rebirth of Prince Gong's Mansion

Chapter 48 Du Mingcai Takes Another Big Job

After seeing the situation of the house, Fan Ze asked, "Old Du, how much more do I need to pay you?"

Du Mingcai was waiting for this sentence, he rubbed his hands and said with a grin: "Some materials were obtained by Lao Guo, and almost didn't cost any money. The main thing of your house is to burn porcelain, which cost a lot of money. Lao Guo paid all the money, there are six of us here, and we agreed to pay 30 yuan per person, and you can just give one hundred and eight."

Fan Ze thought secretly.

Now the average salary of workers across the country is 30 yuan per month. Now they have worked for more than ten days, and they get a month's wages of workers, which is a good income in their opinion.

At this time, Guo Daxi walked in.

As soon as he saw Fan Ze, he said, "I knew you might come over today, are you satisfied with the house?"

"Satisfied and satisfied."

"You boy, I feel itchy when I see such a house, how could I be dissatisfied."

Having said that, he asked Fan Ze again: "Did you give Lao Du their salary?"

Fan Ze took out [-] yuan and handed it over, "This is [-] yuan, thank you."

"This……"

Fan Ze said: "There are more rewards for you."

"It's too much."

"There's another job for you in a while, so I'll talk to my uncle first."

Du Mingcai's eyes lit up and he said, "Okay, you guys talk, I'll do the work."

After Du Mingcai left, Guo Daxi said, "You are generous."

Fan Ze said: "They really did a good job."

After the two sat down, Guo Daxi said: "Your house is almost rebuilt, that is to say, their craftsmanship is good, and a lot of waste materials are used, and I paid a little money to get some waste from Prince Kung's Mansion." The materials that cost the most are your tiles, you really are, and you even fired tiles, but your matter has opened up a business for the tile burners."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Guo Daxi smiled and said: "The porcelain factory I was looking for almost collapsed, so I spent a little money to let them burn this kind of tiles. What did you say? After they fired the bricks for you, the news spread Yes, I happened to meet a joint venture company looking for this kind of decoration material, and it took a fancy to it at a glance, so that joint venture company ordered a large number of tiles from them, and finally saved their factory. The factory manager was very grateful to us, and said that he wanted to treat you to dinner or something, because of this matter, you don’t want a penny for the decoration of the tiles."

Fan Ze was also in a daze, he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

However, if you think about it seriously, this is really the case. Many porcelain factories nowadays are firing old things. They probably haven't started to discover this kind of decorative tiles, but they let that factory get a big deal.

Guo Daxi said: "The factory manager said that if you want to burn any porcelain in the future, he will not charge a penny."

Originally, I thought this must be a lot of money, but it turned out that I didn't want a penny.

"The 1000 yuan you took has been spent."

Fan Ze knew in his heart that Guo Daxi had lost a lot of favors in this matter.

"Uncle, thank you."

"Thank you, you are a capable person, you just need to take care of my boys from now on."

"Uncle, do you really have enough money?"

"I don't have any money. If I don't have enough money, why don't I post it?" Guo Daxi glared at Fan Ze.

Fan Ze smiled and said nothing more.

Guo Daxi looked around, took out some things from his body and handed them to Fan Ze: "I made some of what you said, what do you think?"

Fan Ze saw that it was some wooden handicrafts.

"I've made a lot of bracelets. This one is easy. All I looked for were red sandalwood discarded in Prince Gong's mansion. These things are beautifully made."

Fan Ze also sighed secretly, most of the old and dismantled wood in Prince Gong's mansion were used for fire.

Thinking of this, Fan Ze said: "I suggest you buy some of those discarded wood. It's a pity to be used for fire."

"I think so too. If I want to save it, I just have no money."

"In this way, good things are left to the construction team, and those who they think can't be used, they can collect as much as they can. Except for Prince Gong's Mansion, all good wood in other places in the capital will be collected, especially this kind of red sandalwood. It’s really good to make bracelets.”

Fan Ze looked at the thing while talking.

"Uncle, you didn't say anything about your craftsmanship. It's really good. Do as much as you can, and I'll take as much as you have."

"Do you really charge one yuan for each string?"

"Believe it or not, I sell each string to foreigners for ten dollars."

Guo Daxi smiled and said: "Okay, you are capable, since you have confidence, I will call everyone together, and the whole family will do it. I don't care how much you can sell, as long as you give me one yuan for each string. "

"I took advantage of you."

After waving his hands, Guo Daxi said: "It can't be said that you took advantage of it, it should be our family who took advantage of it. If you ask our family to sell it, you may not be able to sell it for a dime. This is your responsibility." I figured it out. Besides, one string costs one yuan, one hundred strings costs less than 100 yuan, and now it’s less than 30 yuan for a regular worker. If you can do it, you’ve solved a big problem for our family.”

Fan Ze thought to himself not to set too high a price for now, and in the future, when he earns more, he can quietly give Guo Daxi more.

"It doesn't have to be made of wood. Bamboo can also be used. You can make some ancient rulers, pen holders, swords and so on."

Guo Daxi nodded and said, "These are all fine."

After the two finished talking, Guo Daxi left.

Fan Ze thought to himself that the decoration this time really took advantage of Guo Daxi, and it would not be too good to keep doing this.

Calling Du Mingcai over, Fan Ze asked, "Old Du, if it's labor and materials, can you do the decoration of the two courtyard houses?"

Du Mingcai was also shocked, he opened his eyes wide and said, "What kind of two courtyard houses?"

"I plan to renovate the two first-entry courtyards and make them look like a restaurant. Of course, I will carry out the entire design, and the decoration needs to be similar to the situation here."

"There are no tickets for many things now. When helping you decorate, we traveled to many places and met a lot of people. As long as the money is in place, there should be no problem."

Seeing Du Mingcai talking like this, Fan Ze nodded and said, "Okay, you guys rest for a few days, and I will also think about how to design it, and then I invite you to help with the decoration."

Although seeing Fan Ze decorating here is already full of admiration for Fan Ze, now when he heard that Fan Ze still has a big job for them, Du Mingcai couldn't believe it, and he was full of a sense of mystery towards Fan Ze .
