Reborn Farmer's Businesswoman

Chapter 205 The Workshop Starts

After the knife scar incident, Lin Youtian studied carpentry during the day and thought about hidden weapons at night.

He has always kept in mind the signing of the contract, no matter whether it is true or not, there is nothing wrong with preparing for a rainy day and strengthening his own strength.

Han Qing was on the sidelines to settle the accounts, the silver taels earned in the first ten days of the new year were only 40 taels.

Only half of the deposit is paid for civil engineering and stone materials, and the remaining 50 taels have not yet been paid.This is because a lot of the wood was cut down by Father Lin, Lin Shiliang, and Lin Dazhi in the mountains, which saved a lot of money.

The tiles have not been purchased yet, so at least it costs 50 taels, plus the wages of hired craftsmen, she has to prepare at least nearly 200 taels for emergencies.

This is because the structure of the workshop is simple, unlike building a house, it needs to set up a lot of rooms and bury a lot of beams and columns.

If you want to build a big house with blue bricks and red tiles, you will need to spend at least 300 taels. Of course, for an ordinary wooden house, nearly [-] taels will be enough.

Thinking about it this way, it cost 50 taels to build a carriage. Sure enough, only rich people can use a carriage.

It's just a house for my family, no matter what, I can't make up for it, I have to live comfortably!

Of course, these all need money!

Han Qing scratched her hair, if she didn't earn enough money, she might not even be able to pay her wages.

In the following days, when Han Qing came back from Qingyang County every day, she rushed to see the progress of the workshop without touching the ground.

The whole family is helping, even the three young children of Lin Yunhai are busy doing what they can.

Lin Youtian and Lin Fuhai practiced in the workshop every day, some things cannot be fully explained, and only after personally operating them can they be fully understood.

At this time, Lin Youtian was sawing wood with a chainsaw. He couldn't move the ink fountain because of his legs and feet, and he couldn't jump up and down to measure it himself. But sawing wood, polishing, polishing and painting, etc., as long as he could do it, he would not let it go.

Lin Dongyang couldn't help but said: "One day, you might as well learn from me to carve jade, not carpenter."

Lin Youtian shook his head, now he is deeply obsessed with carpentry, how could he waver in his determination.

"You brat, you don't learn by yourself, and you come to poach your father's corner, even your own son can't spare you!" Lin Fuhai finished playing the ink, and when he heard Lin Dongyang's words, he immediately cursed with a smile.

"Father, one of us does carpentry, the other carves dragons and phoenixes, how well they match!"

Lin Fuhai smiled and sat in front of the two boys, helping to saw the wood.

While sawing, he said: "Our carpenter can also make four or five pieces of furniture for everyone in a month. Although the work takes a long time, but excluding the cost of wood, we can earn at least 30 to [-] taels a month."

"If you take on a big job to build a house and a workshop, it will cost seven or eighty taels when it is completed."

Thinking of the big job that he took on this time, it was his apprentice's house, Lin Fuhai laughed again: "Good apprentice, don't worry, the master will not forget to pay you when the work is finished."

The wood in his hand snapped, and Lin Fuhai said again: "Anyway, if you have a craft, you won't starve to death!"

Lin Youtian and Lin Dongyang nodded in agreement.

"Fortunately, the world is peaceful now. If there is war and famine, who will build a house without food?" Lin Dongyang said.

Seeing this, Lin Fuhai shook his head, and said in a low voice, "That's not necessarily true. Carpentry is indispensable for city defense. Good craftsmen have to go out with the army. Just building ladders can exhaust people to death, let alone city defense mechanisms."

"Father... how do you know?"

Lin Fuhai stroked his short beard, "Father is naturally well-informed. Your great-great-grandfather once said that a famous carpenter would not be able to pay a thousand taels of gold!"

After Lin Youtian listened to it, his heart felt hot, and he seemed to have caught something vaguely.
