Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 386: Just right

Gu Erzhu spoke very quickly and quickly. Zhou Banxia almost didn't have time to nod. When he looked up, he saw a patrol of guards appeared in front of him.

God's.

The buckle is just right.

Hearing the guards respectfully shout the master's salute again, seeing that Gu Erzhu had no airs at all, it was hard work again, and he patted each other's shoulders happily?

Zhou Banxia felt aggrieved for her father-in-law. Mr. Gu was not blind. If he had not suppressed his second son again and again, Zhao Laosan would be nothing.

With her father-in-law's ability, even if Gu Yangwen accomplishes nothing, it is still easy to make a fortune as long as her father-in-law is the master of the family.

Walking to the bluestone slab leading to the main entrance of the manor, Gu Erzhu didn't know that his old daughter-in-law was secretly scolding him for being so partial.

Looking at the big house and the back door of the workshop on the other side, he felt both happy and distressed.

Happily, in his entire life, Liu Lang, as his father, does not have to worry about the day when he and his wife are no longer alive and he will not even have a caring wife.

I am not afraid of being poor, but I am afraid that his Liulang family will be too difficult to take care of, like a wild horse that no one can tether. How wonderful it is now that Sanya has tethered him!

What made him feel distressed was that Sanya, a child, was too spoiled by Liu Lang. He just agreed to build this manor. He didn't know how much money was spent, but it still hasn't been completed yet.

Yes.

"How much money have you spent here so far?"

Gu Erzhu believed that the old son and the young couple had settled their accounts, "Be honest and don't lie."

Zhou Banxia was happy when she saw that the question was not directed at her, and immediately became angry, "Dad, Brother Liulang forbade me to say anything. He said you would beat him."

Gu Wenxuan couldn't help laughing, "Not much, Master Wang was recommended by my husband, I just wanted to collect some money, and the rest is just bricks, slates, wood and labor.

The bricks and tiles cost some money, but we can't save them; for the slates, we gave them stones; for the wood, they all belong to our family at the back of the mountain, so we didn't buy much.

The rest of the labor is only a little more than the master's wages. The others only get 20 cash a day, and one tael of silver is already a thousand cash, so it doesn't cost much.

I knew it well, so I focused on furniture. Basically, there was nothing to spend on it. As long as it didn’t exceed three thousand taels of silver, it was worth it.

Be careful on the steps, Dad, where is the chestnut brick hidden? I searched several times but couldn't find it. And that cave, if I hadn’t remembered where it was, I wouldn’t have been able to find it. "

Gu Erzhu rolled his eyes at his old son who wanted to fool around again, "If you don't know how to count, I must have exceeded this number long ago. Let me take you to see where the brick is."

Gu Wenxuan couldn't wait to see how much money his father had spent building this manor, so he hurriedly responded and took the opportunity to hold the hand of his wife who was lagging behind.

You agreed to share the same responsibility for difficulties, but you are unkind and still want to deliberately hide behind?
Carrying Gu Erzhu on his back, Zhou Banxia glared: What kind of rules is it to tug and pull in front of elders? Let go quickly, or I will pull your ears!
When Gu Wenxuan saw this, he just didn't let go.

Let go!

Don't let go!

Gu Erzhu coughed twice to remind his old son that it was almost time.

If I didn't have eyes on the back of my head, I wouldn't be able to imagine what you're doing when you walk slowly!
These two "cough..." frightened Zhou Banxia and quickly threw away his hands. Gu Wenxuan also quickly returned to his father's side in two quick steps. This thief kid will bully Sanya for being thin-skinned!

Gu Erzhu couldn't help but laugh, and had to pretend he didn't know anything and pointed in a direction first, pointing out to his old son where the chestnut bricks were hidden.

Generally speaking, either the courtyard wall adjacent to the large kitchen in the front is camouflaged, or it is adjacent to the partition wall of the small kitchen in the backyard, or it is adjacent to the side wall of the cave.

It's just that the manor is too big. The key is that last night, I promised my cousin, who was in charge, to show up in the village before noon.

In order to quickly point out to his son and daughter-in-law where the darkrooms, cellars and other things were inside, he chose to start from the front first, and then slowly work his way to the back.

At the same time, Gu Erzhu also took out the drawings left by Master Wang and two charcoal sticks from a black cloth bag he brought with him.

There is no way around it. There is no shortage of the four treasures of the study at home, but waiting for the ink to be polished and then dipping the ink to pick up the pen is too slow. It is not as easy to use as this kind of charcoal stick.

One used a charcoal strip to mark the drawing, and the other listened and memorized it carefully.

By chance, Gu Wenxuan and Zhou Banxia were well arranged by Gu Erzhu.

Zhou Banxia thought that his current memory was even worse than Gu Wenxuan, so he chose to obey Gu Erzhu, took a handkerchief, wrapped one end of the charcoal strip and started to mark it.

And Gu Wenxuan did not disappoint. He found a place where the chestnut bricks were hidden. He was very good at how to activate the switch in the first darkroom.

His father only said it once, and he, as a son, could immediately understand it and operate it. Not only was his brain easy to use, but his hands-on ability was also very good.

As she walked, watched, and tried, Zhou Banxia saw her father-in-law looking at his old son with a clear look in his eyes - he was as clever as he is!
Unlike Zhou Banxia, ​​Gu Wenxuan still has the time to do two things.

I don't know whether it was because his father asked him to hold the money anyway, or because Master Wang was willing to help others. There were more darkrooms and cellars than he imagined.

Moreover, quite a few of the ways to open the mechanisms were quite complicated, so that he had to recall and compare them carefully along the way.

He didn't want to wait until he turned around and went home. When he was thinking about adding another layer of cover with furniture, he forgot for a moment and had to run back again.

Very troublesome.

We have stopped work today, so there won’t be too many people to watch. Otherwise, it will be hard to cover up people’s eyes and ears when the carpenter who was previously scheduled to bring his apprentice comes in.

Finally, the last darkroom mechanism was opened and closed. Gu Wenxuan closed his eyes and thought about it again, making sure that he would not remember it wrong for at least one day.

After taking a sip of water, when he came out, the sun had already risen. Under the leadership of Gu Erzhu, he also arrived in front of the cave he had always mentioned.

Master Wang is a professional after all.

Who has the ability to build a row of warehouses next to the mountain wall and find out that there is a cave behind one of the warehouses.

Even when he arrived at the room in the direction of the cave's original entrance in his memory, Gu Wenxuan admitted that he really couldn't find the switch without Gu Erzhu personally pointing it out or Zhou Banxia who was looking at the drawings to remind him.

"This has nothing to do with whether the brain works well or the eyesight is good. 'One person hides something, but a thousand people can't find it.' There are also piles of gravel that have not been cleared out. Don't make it too difficult."

Don't laugh, I'm not making excuses, I'm admitting defeat.

Is it you who said it, or are you going to teach your son how to open it? Okay, listen to our father, you can give us a hint first. "
