Chapter 446
When the master carpenter came over, Lian Yao suddenly realized that she didn't have any bamboo in her hand.The eyes of the master carpenter met, and the embarrassment spread silently.

Fortunately, the master carpenter is a thoughtful person. When he saw the mention of the owner of the bamboo, he froze there. Looking at the empty scene, he immediately understood what the problem was.So he took the initiative to say: "I know where there is bamboo, why don't I go and chop some bamboo first?"

"Okay, okay!" Lian Yao agreed with a smile.

The master carpenter hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously: "The place is a little far away, and it's hard to carry too many. Can I bring a helper?"

Lian Yao responded happily: "Yes, no problem."

The master carpenter was a little happy, but there was still some uneasiness in the smile on his face.He tentatively said, "I have a grandson, and I want to take him there."

"Huh?" Lian Yao was surprised. "How old is your grandson?"

The master carpenter looked to be in his 60s, with long hair, a gray beard, and rough hands.It's reasonable to have a grandson at this age, but the grandson shouldn't be too old, right?Can I help?
"Ten years old. Don't worry, he is quite capable. He also helped me a lot when I came here to make furniture. If you don't believe me, you can ask this little steward. He has seen it before." The old carpenter pointed at Lin Bao beside him.

Lin Bao nodded, indicating that the old carpenter was right.

Previously, the old carpenter would not be able to do so much furniture alone, so he did bring a few helpers himself.Among them was his grandson.

"That's fine, let him help you." Lian Yao agreed without hesitation.

One old and one young, it is not easy to think about life.She didn't mind going the extra mile.

The old carpenter was overjoyed to get Lian Yao's permission, and thanked her repeatedly.

"Have you had breakfast?" Lian Yao asked again.He didn't come in through formal "recruitment", so he probably didn't receive breakfast.

The old carpenter shook his head slightly.If there is no work to do, he can only receive relief, and his grandson is growing up, so he usually only eats one meal a day, and saves it for his grandson to eat more.

"A Bao, take their grandparents to the cafeteria to eat first. After eating, we will go to work." Lian Yao ordered.

"Okay, then I'll take him down first. Auntie, call me if you need something."

After the two went down the mountain, Lian Yao stood on the slope and looked down.From a distance, I saw a small figure squatting at the temporary gate.Seeing the old carpenter waving at him, he immediately ran towards the old carpenter like a smoke bomb, and then hugged the old carpenter's arm tightly.

The hired workers came early, and after breakfast, they began to come up the mountain one after another with their hoes on their shoulders.Lian Yao went back to the small courtyard, and then carefully looked at the small courtyard, thinking about what needs to be improved.

His eyes fell on the roof, and he suddenly had an idea.

The house was only a temporary residence, built with little care.Nothing but solidity.Even the roof is flat.Now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, I'm afraid the house will be too hot with such a roof.It's better to add a tripod on the roof and plant some flowers and plants, which are both beautiful and shaded.

And with her here, there is no need to worry that the flowers and plants on the roof will be burned to death because of the sun.

However, the wood for the tripod must be strong, otherwise it will be easily crushed in case of heavy snow.The Qinggang wood used to make the handle of the hoe before is not bad.

Thinking of this, Lianyao hurriedly planted dozens of green pine trees in the soil, removed the heads and tails after planting, leaving only the main pole in the middle, and then moved them all to an open space outside the fence.

After finishing all this work, Lin Bao ran up from below, sweating profusely from the heat.

"Little Senior Aunt, they asked if they could exchange their daily wages for rice or flour."

"Why?" Lian Yao was puzzled.

It's me who is in trouble for distributing steamed buns. They can eat them directly, which saves trouble.There is no need to waste firewood for fire, and there is no need to worry about having no clean water.

"They said that the steamed buns can't be put away."

Lian Yao suddenly realized.

Now that food is tight, everyone saves as much as they can, and saves a little to eat slowly later.Anyway, the construction site had provided two meals, and the evening meal was saved, so they could come here to eat again the next day.So most of the food you take home is stored.

Now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, cooked food cannot be left for too long.Therefore, it is reasonable for those people to want to distribute rice noodles.

"Okay, this will save us trouble. It's just what proportion should we distribute?"

The steamed buns they make are very solid, a bit like northern steamed buns, and one steamed bun can support Lian Yao's meal.Even Wu Qingfeng would be full after eating two steamed buns at a time.

"Two steamed buns are five or six taels, how about six taels of rice or noodles?" Lin Bao suggested.

Lian Yao wrinkled her nose: "Is it too little?"

Lin Bao was almost laughed at by the little aunt's innocence: "My little aunt, do you know the market outside? The two grain cakes out there are only half the size of a palm. Our steamed buns are the size of a palm. Calculate it like this , Our salary is already higher than the sky, right? Even if we only give out a steamed bun, there are still many people vying to help us work."

Of course these Lian Yao knew, but they couldn't connect for a while.After all, the salary in Chitose Village will be higher, so she thinks it is too little.

But after being reminded by Lin Bao, she also came to her senses.After all, this is not Chitose Village, and there are more poor people in the entire Star City.She still has no way to rescue so many people in an open and honest manner.

"Okay, I'll just do as you said." Lian Yao corrected when she realized her mistake.

Seeing that the sister-in-law lowered her head and seemed a little unhappy, Lin Bao hesitated, organized her words, and tried to comfort her in a soft voice: "Little sister-in-law, I know that you are too kind-hearted and don't want to see others suffer. In fact, you have already done it." Good enough, if you don’t believe me, go down and listen to what everyone has to say, they are very grateful to you. They also said that you are a celestial being, and you are beautiful and kind-hearted. If you don’t have this condition now, they would all want to build a celestial temple for you.”

Lian Yao burst into laughter: "What nonsense are you talking about? You're just talking nonsense. Ah Bao's mouth is getting worse and worse. I heard that you were lecturing them yesterday morning."

"Uh——" Lin Bao's face, which still had a little baby fat, suddenly blushed a little.

Isn't he trying to make those people work harder!

Although the words are a bit exaggerated in it, most of them are true.Why do you feel a little ashamed when you hear my little aunt say that?

Lian Yao laughed again.Lin Bao became more and more imposing outside, but in front of himself and his senior brother, he was still the straightforward boy he was before.

"Since you want to use rice as compensation, then you can carry a few bags of rice down."

Six taels per person, more than 100 people are less than [-] catties of rice, Lin Bao easily carried the rice down.

After Lin Bao left, Lianyao went around the storage room to make up the things that needed to be mended.Seeing that there were not many bags of rice left, I wanted to find some pockets of rice in the space of the medicine cabinet, but I couldn't find them after searching for a long time.

The rice grown in the soil has nothing to hold it in. The pockets used to hold the rice were left over after eating the rice purchased outside.When I came, I forgot to bring more pockets.

Lian Yao patted her head, she didn't have any pockets, and she didn't have the cloth to make them, it seems that she has to ask her senior to make a few rice vats.
