A piece of paper

As expected by Xian Jin, Mrs. Qu agreed to go out on the spot when she heard about the white jade paperweight "Toad Palace wins the crown". Qu Erniang looked at the dark clouds coming from the southeast and specifically advised, "The clouds are twisting the clouds, and the rain is pouring. , I’m afraid there will be heavy rain later.”

Mrs. Qu asked Xianjin to help change clothes.

Xian Jin stared at the loincloth under her crotch at a loss. She really didn't know where to start - she was just a dung beetle, and she usually wore a brown coat with an open front, so she was already worthy of the audience.

Such complicated clothing is really far away from her.

Mrs. Qu opened her hands wide and gave up showing off her wealth. She motioned for Qu Erniang to change, ".Change for the turban with ink trim. It looks auspicious. Put some dried lily of the valley flowers in the sachet. I don't have time to take a bath and burn incense." , I had to use convenient methods.”

Qu Erniang said angrily, "It's going to rain, my mother is getting married, and the white jade paperweight won't run around there. Your legs and feet are not convenient, so why go so far?"

"This is a good sign!" The raised cheekbones on Mrs. Qu's thin face showed a bit of vividness, "Next year Erlang will die in spring. If there is a good sign, we will report it to the government in time, so that we can resume school next year. It deserves some attention!"

Xianjin lowered his hands and waited.

She could hear that Mrs. Qu was really happy.

Even a woman like Mrs. Qu who dares to go out on her own and become famous among men will blindly rejoice because of the omen that heralds the prosperity of the clan.

Xianjin lowered his head and curled his lips. However, the rise of a clan in any era is based on the sacrifice and dedication of a group of people. For example, Mrs. Qu's leg is said to have been broken when she fell off a cliff while rushing on the road in her early years; such as Hope Zhizhi Xing’s father, who worked hard and studied hard, ruined his foundation, and died young in the end; another example is Chen Fu, who lacks a sense of security and identity, and has spent his whole life seeking the emotions that make him most comfortable.
Living people, shackled by the clan, have obliterated their desires, eliminated their ideas, blunted their edges and corners, and turned into the roles needed by the clan.

So, what is a person?What to live for?What is a human being?Or is it an NPC that promotes the development of the plot?

For no reason, Xian Jin thought of the veins on the back of his hand when Star of Hope was struggling to hold the pen while talking about the clan under the moonlit night.

Long time no see him.

When we arrived at Jixi Workshop, it was already raining lightly. Qu Erniang got off the carriage first, held up a huge oil-paper umbrella, helped Mrs. Qu hold the crutches, and Xianjin and Xianjin supported Mrs. Qu on the left and right. Get off the mule cart.

"Boom--"

A flash of white light flashed across the top of Jingting Mountain in the southeast.

Brother Hai and his carpenter were waiting at the door. When they saw Mrs. Qu coming, they hurried forward to hold an umbrella. "Let me know in advance when you are coming! Xiaosi will pick you up at the alley."

Mrs. Qu patted Fourth Brother Hai's wrist and squinted in the light, "I remember you. A few years ago, you came to visit Brother Hai to pay New Year greetings, right?"

Brother Hai hurriedly tilted his head and said, "Yes, yes! You have a good memory. The Chen family's uncle was the prefect of Chengdu at that time, and the courtyard at home needed to be repaired. The fifth master asked me to do the job this time. It was also the fifth master who did the job this time. Recommended for help.”

Mrs. Qu smiled and said, "You have worked hard and done a lot of work for the Chen family."

"No, no, it's just that the fifth master is willing to help." Brother Hai laughed so hard that wrinkles flew all over his face.

The rain fell harder and harder, and the big raindrops hit the muddy ground, forming puddles of soil.

Brother Hai bowed and held an umbrella. He led Mrs. Qu and Xian Jin and his entourage through the gate. He first introduced the hanging tree plaque. The plaque was thick and smooth with raw lacquer. The front store was decorated with 23 heights according to Xian Jin's needs. There is a chest of drawers, the bricks and tiles have been re-arranged, and the counter, corner cabinets and high shelves are all newly built. Everywhere you look is very neat and beautiful.

The rain outside the window was pouring, heavier than the rain that night when Yiping asked her father for money.

Mrs. Qu nodded with satisfaction and walked inside. The yard was also connected to the canal from Longchuan Creek according to Xianjin's requirements. Two deep wells were even drilled, and a 12-meter-long well was built in the yard where the wooden shed was built. There are pools on the left and right, a pool of about eight meters, and seven, seven, eight, eight, about four or five meters of pools. Everything looks neat and orderly.

After the courtyard is the warehouse.Brother Hai personally took two keys to open the two huge copper locks, and then respectfully handed the copper locks to Mrs. Qu's hands, saying proudly, "Just as Shopkeeper He thought, the tile shop in the paper warehouse is It is on the fourth floor, and the flying corners under the eaves are specially raised to prevent rainwater from splashing..."

Xian Jin touched the wall with one hand and found a very thin layer. He turned around and interrupted Brother Hai's words, "How many layers are there on the wall of your warehouse?"

Brother Hai was very unhappy when his words were interrupted. "I made two layers of bricks specially!" He then smiled at Mrs. Qu and said, "A single layer of bricks is easy for water to enter the wall, so I specially made two layers of bricks..."

Xianjin said, "The paper warehouse should be built on three floors, with an outer wall and an inner wall, and a layer of gravel and broken bricks in the middle. This can prevent the water on the wall from causing the ground to sink and cause the wall to crack."

Brother Hai suppressed the urge to raise his eyebrows, "Little girl, don't pretend to understand!" He wanted to say something more, but he didn't know where to start, so he had to say, "The walls are so easy to seep! The house we live in is also It’s just two layers of bricks!”

"The house where I live does not have so much rice paper! Rice paper is stingy and avoids moisture. However, Xuancheng is very rainy from May to October, so a warehouse for storing paper needs a lot of effort to build!"

Xianjin lowered his head and took out the deed signed earlier in the morning from his sleeve, and pointed it to Brother Hai, "Look, what is written in the deed is - 'All repair and delivery standards shall be subject to suitable rice paper storage.'"

Of course Brother Hai knows what is written in the deed!
This sentence was suggested by He Xianjin!
When he first heard it, he felt it was ambiguous. Then he thought, could this little girl know what it means to store rice paper properly?
Who would lift up the hidden things on the walls and floors to look inside?
Brother Hai stabilized his facial expression and chuckled, "Then these two layers of bricks, I think are quite suitable for storing rice paper!"

Mrs. Qu raised her eyebrows slightly.

Xianjin pursed his lips and walked quickly to the corner. He took out a dry straw stem from his arms and inserted it into the gap between the bricks and tiles in the corner. After waiting for a moment, he handed it to Mrs. Qu, "You can touch it." Tail.”

Mrs. Qu touched the roots of the straw stalks and turned to look at Brother Hai, "...it's moist."

Brother Hai opened his mouth and wanted to say something else.

Showing gold, but loudly cut off, "...the warehouse needs to be a platform, and the warehouse where paper is stored should be three inches higher than the ground! No mud should be used under the bricks in the warehouse, pure white ash or dry sand should be used, and it should be paved to the same height as the brick surface ! To make the ground waterproof, seven layers of materials are required. The bottom layer is yellow mud used for grooving, followed by haystacks, white ash, gravel, dry ash, and tarpaulin. The last layer is not ordinary square bricks, but made of Grill the green bricks with the right thickness and hardness!”

Xianjin handed the straw stalk to Brother Hai, "As long as you do this, the stalk's tail will not get wet."

Brother Hai stared at Xian Jin dumbfounded.

No, we agreed that this girl doesn’t know how to create!

Now what is this!
What is it! ?

Improvisational performance! ?

Brother Hai's mind was in a mess, "The salary is only so little...how can it be possible to reach the seventh floor..."

"I paid you 950 taels for your wages!"

Xian Jin sneered, "I can use this money to buy two well-repaired houses!"

Mrs. Qu put her hands on the crutches and looked at Brother Hai.

Brother Hai was about to open his mouth.

But I heard a loud bang from the front store next door! !
