Chapter 161 Is it Infrastructure?
Chapter 161 Is it Infrastructure?
Two days later, the foundation and the cement on the bridge were dry, and the Ling family began to officially build the house.

Meng Daqiang said that helping was really helping, and he stayed in Lingjia Village for ten days before returning. In the hot summer, he slept in Ling Xiao's camp bed in the auditorium for several nights.

One more person digs the sand, and the speed is faster.

The river sand that Meng Qidi wanted is not only needed for building a house, but also for laying cement at the gate, and for cementing the stream dam...

In mid-August, the two floors of the main house were completed. The roof was covered with cement slabs and the ground was bare, and a layer of red tiles was built on top.

In Meng Qidi's words, it is leak-proof.

The ear chambers on both sides are piggybacked to sit up.

Blue bricks and red tiles, if matched with red doors and windows, it really looks like that.

It took nearly a month and a half from laying the foundation to finishing the blank room.

Two days later, after a thunderstorm, the masons were ready to start laying the foundation for the backyard fence.

The bricks and cement of the Ling family are already the second batch bought.

"Do you plan to make the doors and windows of this house the kind with glass windows?"

Master Yang walked around in the front room of the main room, and was a little surprised at the speed of their house. He thought it would take at least two months for that picture.

"Well, can it be done?" Meng Qidi followed up and asked.

Their house hadn't painted the walls yet, so the furniture hadn't been dragged back. Once the walls were painted white, the floor was smooth, and the doors and windows were installed, the furniture could be moved back.

"My people are here. If you ask this question, the doors and windows of the house are easy to solve. However, the courtyard wall, the gate facing the pond, the west side and the bamboo forest are all easy to solve. Your main entrance..."

"If it's not easy for you, I'll just make the iron gate."

Although the iron gate does not fit this style, it is not too bad.

Master Yang sighed, "It's not that you can't do it. If you plan to make arches in the future, to be honest, it's best not to have doors, because it will affect the appearance."

However, I have also seen the situation in their house. The door and window sills of the house are all the kind that can be broken when knocked on.

"Then what if it's a push-pull iron door?"

When Ling Xiao's voice sounded, Master Yang was slightly stunned.

Ling Xiao pointed to the inner side of the yard, "The sliding iron gate is installed here. If you are afraid of not looking good, you can plant a row of vegetation here to hide the iron gate."

Master Yang stroked his chin halfway, "It won't look good inside, let's make a big wooden door."

Meng Qidi...

You are the master and you have the final say...

Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, and a smile flashed across his eyes, "Listen to you."

"Since you have decided, then I will leave after measuring the doors and windows, and I will have someone come and drag the water tanker here tomorrow. However, is the stream so shallow?"

Meng Qidi was slightly stunned, and glanced under the bridge, not to mention, she didn't even notice that it seemed that the water hadn't risen since the last time the flood broke down the reservoir...

"I've done everything, and it looks pretty nice as a display," Ling Xiao said.

Ling Xiao led Master Yang to measure the doors and windows, while Meng Qidi looked into the mountain thoughtfully.

Zhao Youwei said before that what to do about drought?What Master Yang said now really woke her up.

It's not yet a dry day, and the water is not as good as before. If it is really dry, what will happen to her pond?
The brigade built a reservoir, but the water led to the small port in the village and didn't flow here...

Meng Qidi frowned, no, if she has time, she has to go to the mountains for a few days, not to mention building reservoirs, at least block some and store some water, who knows if there will be drought in the future...

The next day, Ling Xiao and Ling Jinming went to the town to pull water trucks, and Meng Qidi led a few masons to start painting the walls.

"Is there really no blue baseboard here?" The master asked the last time, pointing to the main room unwillingly.

Meng Qidi shook her head resolutely, "Just pink and white."

If it weren't for the dusty blue bricks, she wouldn't want to be pink and white. When it comes to the future, it will have a sense of age.

After asking several times in a row, the master painter gave up his mind.

In fact, it is the busy season of farming. If this customer pays a lot of wages, they really don't have time to do it.

Seeing that the master finally worked honestly, Meng Qidi walked to the stove behind, where the stove master in the village was starting the stove.

After watching the master for a few minutes, Meng Qidi went to the backyard. It would be great if there was running water here, could it be brought from the back mountain?
The next second, Meng Qidi shook her head in disapproval. It was time-consuming and laborious, and it was not clean. If there was a pump to draw water, and a big bucket on the roof, tap water would be enough.

It's a pity that there is no water pump or large bucket in the space, so let's build one when we have time.

Around ten o'clock, Ling Xiao and the two brought the water tanker back.

"Should we fix it with cement?" Meng Qidi suggested to help move it down.

Ling Xiao shook his head, "No, Master Yang has improved the lesson from last time. The base of the waterwheel can be nailed to the dam."

Meng Qidi was reminded by him, only then did she realize that there were four more holes in the base...

"By the way, Xiao Qi, I brought back a lot of wires from the cart, you take them in."

electric wire?Meng Qidi was slightly taken aback, then her eyes lit up, yes!She said she seemed to have forgotten something!
Lamp!She also has a generator in her space, and when she has time to go to the city or somewhere, she can get it out by stealing it, and there will be electricity at home.

Seeing that she was dumbfounded, Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Why are you standing there? Send it back and bring me a big hammer. There is no electricity in the village. I guess this light won't be used for a while."

Meng Qidi came back to her senses, and hurried in with a large coil of wires in her arms.

In fact, the installation of electric wires is to distinguish between visible wires and hidden wires. It is safest to install hidden wires in front of the whitewashed wall.

Of course, there is no electricity now, so there is no rush to install the wires.

The house is ready, painting is the fastest.

A few days later, the courtyard wall at the back was completed, and the front was also very well painted. The ground was polished to a concrete floor, and the whole house was almost finished.

Master Yang dragged the doors and windows over, and began to install them one by one. The doors and windows had already been painted by Master Yang, and now it saves a procedure...

At the beginning of September, the furniture was moved in, and the house was basically ready, and we just waited for a good day to move in.

Taking advantage of choosing a date, Meng Qidi mixed the excess sand and cement, and covered the gate with a layer of cement.

Meng Qidi made a row of drains in the gap between the warehouse between the stove and the main room in the back room.

And there was a row of bamboo outside the courtyard wall by the stream, and she basically poured the excess cement into the cracks in the bamboo.

This also added a scenic spot to the later Lingjia Village.

In mid-September, the end of August in the lunar calendar, the first autumn tiger after the double snatching, the firecrackers at Ling Xiao's house in the west of the village kept ringing, and the new house of Ling's family was opened...

The old and the young of the Ling family led the villagers happily strolling downstairs. In the upstairs hall, a group of masters were sitting, including the carpenter Master Yang...

Meng Qidi and Ling Xiao are starting to settle wages...

After the bill was settled and the excitement of the villagers was over, Meng Qidi was free to look around.

As for the banquet for the housewarming, Ling Xiao scheduled it in five days.

Meng Qidi went straight to the west.

The courtyard wall at the back of the hilltop on the west side did not go on, but stopped at the cliff, and further down was the steep cliff and the deep river.

Meng Qidi pursed her lips, it was very unsafe, a guardrail had to be built here, and it happened that the bridge guardrail was not done yet, so we can do it together.

He turned his head and looked at the house below him. Compared with the flood a few months ago, it looked completely new.

Does this count as infrastructure?It's just too expensive, and I will have to make money again in a few days...
