Chapter 331: Tulou
Ye Jinhui saw Li Zhikuan's oyster shell house, and suddenly remembered something. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
I remember the previous life, there was a period of time in southern Fujian that used oyster shells to make courtyard walls, one of the things that people talked about, that is, a Japanese leader with weapons invaded the house and was killed by a sixty-year-old couple.
Speaking of the Japanese Invaders, she suddenly remembered that at the same time that the Wa Assassins attacked the capital, the Japanese people also seemed to have attacked Fujian, and the entire Great Song Dynasty suffered from the enemy, otherwise it would not have even broken the capital.
However, although Ye Siming in his previous life also served as the commander of Quanzhou Wei, the Ye family moved to Dijing before he was promoted, and Mrs. Ye and Yang Shuyi didn't like her, so she only heard a few words about such a big event, and it was impossible to know whether it was the person killed by the oyster shell wall or the rumors. One thing is for sure, the Japanese will definitely attack Fujian at that time.
It is rumored that after the Xuanfu and Datong were destroyed, the emperor personally brought 500,000 troops.
This is almost half of the country's troops, and Luo Rongfa, as a close confidant of the emperor, will definitely participate in the war at that time, in case the Japanese people take advantage of the chaos to attack Fujian and Jiangsu and Zhejiang at the same time, it will be difficult for Quanzhou to get reinforcements from elsewhere, only to save itself. But her fourth uncle Ye Sibang has not experienced much war. Ye Jinhui thought of this problem, almost sleepless at night, but when she saw her oyster shell house, she suddenly had a way to deal with the Japanese people, that is, Tulou.
Tulou was originally a characteristic building in southern Fujian, but in recent years, in order to keep up with the fashion, many families have stripped off and built an imperial courtyard. Of course, the large-scale round tulou can accommodate thousands of people at the same time, and ordinary families do not have the ability to build it, but it is not difficult for her to build such a guilou now.
Ye Jinhui decided to discuss this matter with her grandfather first, of course, she did not tell Ye Shangwu that the purpose of building the earthen building was to prevent Japanese people, only that she had seen such a building elsewhere, and she felt that it was very special, and she wanted to build a building and rent it to those merchants to do business at that time.
Old Man Ye laughed, "This is a good idea, you can just look at it, if you need to run errands, go directly to your third uncle." It's not that he thinks that Ye Jinhui's earthen building can bring benefits to the Ye family after it is built, he is just afraid that she will feel uncomfortable after listening to the gossip on this family matter, so he will find something to do for her, so as not to think about it and suffer from some bastard idleness.
was afraid that the third son would not succeed and snub Ye Jinhui, Ye Shangwu specially found him and explained the matter, "Zhenzhen wants to build a tulou, you can help her." ”
When Ye Laosan saw his daughter-in-law, he inevitably lost his temper, "I don't know what Daddy thinks, he actually asked me to do errands for Zhenzhen!" ”
Mrs. Ye San really can't look down on Ye Laosan's high-eyed appearance, but this person is her husband, he has no face in front of his father-in-law, and she has no status in this family, so she can only ask with restraint: "What's wrong?" ”
Ye Laosan was incapable, but he listened to his daughter-in-law's words, so he learned Ye Shangwu's words.
The third wife said: "Zheng Kui, they sold tea some time ago, but they made a lot of money, and now they have got the salt introduction and started selling salt." ”
Although Ye Laosan didn't know how much profit he made from private salt, he knew that his brother-in-law took advantage of his eldest son's birthday some time ago to give Zheng a thousand taels of silver tickets.
Although the Zheng family is a big family, but Mrs. Ye San's mother's family is really mediocre, and she can't stand to death or starve, where will she take so much silver when the younger generation is scattered? There was only one thing, and that was that he made money.
Not only that, Zheng Kui also told him that he had recently bought three shops!
A shop costs 3,000 taels, and there is also an expenditure of 10,000 taels of silver in the middle.
It's as simple as pie falling from the sky, this is only for the sale of tea, if it is for the sale of illegal salt, it will definitely be higher.
Ye Laosan was thrown on a desert island by his father in the past few years, and his temper had already worn out, that is, he just complained, and now he listened to Zheng's words again, so he helped Ye Jinhui with peace of mind.
Ye Jinhui handed over all the things of buying land and finding craftsmen to Ye Sibang, and felt that he had not had an easy time in the past few years, so he simply drew out a thousand taels of silver tickets generously, "If the third uncle wants to help me with my errands, he must socialize with all kinds of people, so you can take this money and invite them to tea first." ”
Even if the Ye family is now a marquis, there are some things that can't be forced, but they can rely on eating and drinking to get closer to the opportunity, and there is no reason why Ye Siguo has to pay for her own money to help her do things.
Ye Laosan didn't think it was the money of the younger generation at this time, he was embarrassed to take it, on the contrary, he took it very happily, the eldest niece is a recognized wealth girl in the family, but unfortunately he thought she was young and weak and bullied, so he deliberately took advantage of her housekeeper to secretly accept gifts, but he didn't expect to be caught all of a sudden, and then he was disgusted by his own father.
Although Ye Laosan knew that his assignment to the desert island was related to this niece, he didn't think about revenge, after all, she had his father's support behind her, and he couldn't afford to provoke her. But he was embarrassed to come over and sell it again, after all, the Zheng family had instilled in him a lot of Ye Jinhui's wrongdoing truth in recent years, and he also said a lot of good things for Ye Jinhui.
Ye Jinhui handed over a request for a house to his third uncle.
Ye Laosan was inevitably curious, "I'm afraid that your house can live in hundreds of families." ”
Ye Jinhui: "The third uncle just looks at it, I don't understand this." Saying that, he handed Ye Laosan a small seal, "If you need silver, the third uncle just go to the Sunrise Money Village to get it, as for the accounts, you can write them down first, and then I will find someone right." ”
Ye Laosan couldn't help but complain to his daughter-in-law again, "Zhenzhen'er, this girl, even I can't believe it." ”
Zheng said: "Brother, settle accounts, not to mention uncles and nephews, the more difficult things you do, the more you can do them, and Daddy will be impressed with you." ”
After being turned around by Ye Laosan for a month, he spent 1,000 taels of silver to buy 100 acres of land near the city gate.
When others saw him buying land, they were inevitably a little curious, and they couldn't help but ask what it was for, knowing that it was to build a house, and some people scolded him for being a fool.
In recent years, Japanese activities have been rampant, and who dares to live outside the city gate for the rich and powerful?
However, no one dared to do it in front of him.
But Ye Jinhui is thinking about the part of the people who can't afford to buy a house in the city, in case the Japanese attack, they will inevitably rush to the city gate, but at this time, the people who defend the city are worried about getting close to the spies, usually dare not open the door to them, even if they open the door, they have to bear a great risk, and when the typhoon comes, many houses are easy to collapse, but the house she built is reinforced round, although the top is a triangular structure, but the wall is definitely reinforced with bricks of the city wall, so it is not a problem to preserve it for hundreds of years.
Find a good place, it is already November, when the autumn harvest has been completed, many people are idle, but also willing to find some work to do, although the weather turns cold, but the winter will not freeze, but also suitable for burning bricks, quarrying and digging foundations and other work.
But Ye Laosan's head was obviously insufficient, so he had to ask his daughter-in-law to recommend an account room from her mother's family, and a steward to be responsible for watching the venue.
