MTL - Exile the Whole Family! The Koi Girl Farms and Flies the Whole Family-Chapter 7 ready to build a house
Chapter 7 Prepare to build a house
Deng and her two daughters huddled together on the floor in a room, and a piece of cloth was simply used as a curtain to hang on the door.
There are no nails on the door to hang the curtain, but there are gaps everywhere on the earth wall. I broke two wooden sticks and inserted them into the door frames on both sides, and tied the cloth pieces on the wooden sticks. It’s all done!
Zhao Xiang and Hu Ling led Zhao Lin to make a shop on the floor in the main room and guard the gate.
Hu Ling originally asked Zhao Xiang and his son to go to sleep in another room, so he could just guard the door.
Where is Zhao Xiang willing?
Hu Ling can follow this road, their Zhao family already owes the Hu family a debt of gratitude, how can Hu Ling be treated and wronged by the current people?
Along the way, including here, if you want to gain a foothold, it is definitely different whether there is a young man in the family to support the facade.
The whole family slept soundly.
With something in her heart, Zhao Liya woke up not long after dawn.
When she moved, the others got up when they heard the movement.
There are two packs of snacks in the burden, and there is still water in the two teapot water bags. Yesterday, when I borrowed the stove from Widow Qu’s house to cook porridge, I also boiled some tea and filled them up.
It’s not cold today, and you can drink it cold.
After eating something briefly, Zhao Liya warned: "Father, mother, you are at home, don't go anywhere."
Zhao Xiang smiled and said: "Don't worry, your parents are not so confused, and they are not so easy to bully. This person is not familiar with the place, so you should be careful when you go out."
"Well, we will!"
Zhao Liya and Hu Ling went out without further delay.
In order to facilitate the monitoring and management of the government, Yan Village is not too far away from the county seat. The two of them were lucky. On the way, they encountered a bullock cart entering the city from elsewhere. They spent a few pennies on the car and arrived in Gaolian County in less than an hour and a half. .
Entering the city, Zhao Liya asked Shang Hu Ling to sit down in an old-looking teahouse in the downtown area, and ordered a relatively expensive pot of tea and three snacks.
By the time she and Hu Ling came out of the teahouse, they had already inquired with the teahouse staff where they could buy bricks, tiles, wood and furniture at a relatively reasonable price, and where they could hire strong and willing people to work.
This season is not the peak period for building houses, so bricks, tiles and wood are relatively easy to buy, and the price is also very suitable. The brick kilns and tile kilns are very close, so I bought things in one trip. They are in stock and can be delivered to Yanzhou tomorrow. village.
Originally, Zhao Liya was worried that the locals would be jealous of Yancun. Hearing that they were from Yancun, they would deliberately charge high prices or refuse to deliver the goods. Who knew that the other party just took a look at them.
Zhao Liya was secretly relieved.
What Zhao Liya didn't know was that the local folk customs were tough, regardless of gender. What happened to Yancun? Does Yancun dare to buy things without giving money? If anyone dares to keep it, they will be beaten until their parents can't recognize it!
As long as there is money to make, it doesn't matter where it is from?
The building materials are all done, and by the way, the doors, windows, furniture, etc. have been ordered-this is only a deposit, and the carpenter will come to the door to measure the size later.
Zhao Liya planned to build a brick house and a high courtyard wall. Such a large number of people needed a lot of rooms. If they wanted to live in a comfortable and spacious place, they also needed a lot of bricks, tiles and wood materials. The total cost was nearly thirty taels of silver.
Hu Ling feels distressed, but Zhao Liya thinks it's worth it.
After a lot of work, it was already noon.
The sun hangs high in the sky, sweat is flowing, and the throat is about to smoke.
Zhao Liya wiped off her sweat and said with a smile: "Let's go eat first, take a rest, and then find a tea shop to fill the water bag, and then hire someone."
Hu Ling smiled and nodded: "Okay, Aya, you are the master!"
Lingnan does not produce wheat, and Lingnan people do not eat noodles. There are no places selling noodles, dumplings, sesame cakes, steamed buns, etc. on the street, only rice noodles, rice, and porridge.
Except for Zhao Liya, the whole family is not used to eating rice noodles. After entering the Lingnan area on the road of exile, it’s okay to eat rice noodles once or twice.
Zhao Liya took Hu Ling to a restaurant with a relatively simple appearance and presumably a relatively simple price.
Hu Ling hesitated, and stopped at the restaurant entrance: "Why don't we eat rice noodles."
Rice noodles are cheap.
Zhao Liya smiled and said: "Eat, you will be strong when you are full! By the way, I will pack two good dishes and go back to my parents, Xiang'er, and Lin'er. Brother, I have told you many times, nothing is as important as your body! The body is the capital of everything!"
Hearing what she said, Hu Ling didn't object. He scratched his head, "Hey!", and smiled: "Okay, anyway, it's Aya, you are right!"
Zhao Liya "Puchi!" smiled: "Is that dish better for me?"
"OK!"
Zhao Liya ordered a dish of fried and dried small river fish with soybeans, a dish of stuffed bean curd with leek minced meat and shiitake mushrooms, a dish of fried bamboo shoots, and two servings of rice.
are all local and easy-to-obtain ingredients, which are not expensive, have sufficient portions, and taste good.
The shopkeeper was nimble, and quickly fried half of the pre-made dishes, and soon brought them to the table with a smile on their faces, "Take it easy, you two, the small fish we dried and the stuffed tofu made by ourselves are delicious. eat!"
Zhao Liya nodded with a smile: "Yeah, it smells delicious, and it must taste even better!"
The shopkeeper laughed and gave her a thumbs up: "You have vision!"
Both of them speak vernacular. Zhao Liya's accent is not so authentic, but there is no hindrance to communicating with the store.
This made Hu Ling envious.
After they entered Lingnan all the way, more and more people spoke vernacular, and everyone had to take the initiative to learn it if they wanted to live here in the future. But no one learned as fast as Zhao Liya.
For example, now, Hu Ling can half understand, but Zhao Liya can already communicate with people easily.
The rice is very fragrant, and the dishes are really fragrant and delicious. The two of them ate a good meal. Zhao Liya ordered a roasted chicken nuggets with black bean sauce, fried river prawns with leeks, and steamed pork belly with flour. They were wrapped in layers of yellow paper. Carefully put it in the pannier that I just bought, and put it on the back of the Hu collar.
The locals are very simple and kind, each dish has ample portion and the price is very reasonable.
"Let's inquire about labor now, hire people, and they will be able to work tomorrow! Let's hire more people and try to build the house as soon as possible."
"OK!"
Hu Ling was refreshed and full of expectations.
The man-made market is in the west of the city. It is the busiest in the morning. Countless idlers waiting for part-time jobs are waiting here. Whenever there are housekeepers, shopkeepers, and foremen who appear, they will swarm around and rush to sell themselves. .
In the afternoon, it was obviously much deserted here, and many people were sitting lazily leaning against the wall, as if they had no bones. Either in a daze, or dozing off, or whispering gossip with acquaintances.
Zhao Liya and Hu Ling walked past, and eyes fell on them with a little curiosity, inquiry, or indifference, but judging from their looks, they didn't seem to be able to afford short-term labor, and they were probably competitors, so they looked at them again. They all looked back.
