Chapter Thirty-Five: There is a place for mountain goods bubbles
"Tomorrow's workshop will be almost finished, and it will start the day after tomorrow, can you tell me about it?" Zhang Qiang didn't understand it after watching it for a long time.
"Ling'er, come on." Min'er thinks it's better to let Ling'er talk about it, anyway, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang can guess whose idea it is, although it is the result of their discussion, it is Ling'er who can put forward. Ling'er on the side had already wanted to speak, but she didn't dare to squeak at will because of Min'er's obscenity, was she too sad?
"Okay, Uncle Zhang, you see, I think so. The whole backyard is completely used, and our family doesn't have the labor to farm anyway. The first thing to do is to dig a large pit one zhang deep (about 3 meters) long and six zhang wide in the backyard, like this. Ling'er pointed to the most frame of the drawing and said, seeing Zhang Qiang nodding and then continued:
"Then a two-foot-high foundation was laid underneath and slabs were laid on top of it." When Ling'er said this, Zhang Qiang interrupted:
"Ling'er, in this case, the slate has to be sold, and the people in our village can't beat this slate."
"It's okay Uncle Zhang, you can call the shots in this regard, we have to spend the money where it should be spent, as long as it is built according to our requirements." Naturally, this was said by Min'er.
"Nacheng, you can go on." If he got the right words, Zhang Qiang naturally had no objection.
"On the stone slabs, the four sides of the wall were made nine feet high, and on the three sides of the wall that fell out of the ground there was a one-foot-square window, and on this side there was an air window one foot high and one foot long. Make such a drainage ditch at the location of the air window, and then fill in the gap between the wall and the ground with earth, so that nothing can be seen from the outside. The inner grid should be like this, with a small corridor in the middle, a door at the end of the corridor, a large room inside, and a door on each side of the corridor, and a small room inside. These walls are made of stone like the outside ones. Finally, a large stone slab was used to cover it, and a foot grew around it, and the stone bricks were scattered at such intervals to support the bottom, mainly to look better, and then to give the air window rain or something, of course, to let the people outside see the air window below. Ling'er took a breath, and after seeing that Zhang Qiang had no problem, she took another drawing and continued:
"This is the above-ground part, let's see when the time comes, if there are any stone bricks left over from the workshop, use stone bricks at the bottom, and if there are none, use green bricks completely." When the workshop was built, the village chief asked some people to specialize in quarrying stones and breaking bricks, so there were a lot of stone bricks. This is still said by Er Ya as a joke, and Ling'er naturally wants to take advantage of it.
"I guess it can't, the bricks for the wall below have to be mined." Zhang Qiang counted the materials.
"Then use the bricks, and leave a door here, and open a window on each side of the door. There are also two windows on each of the other walls, and all you need to do is make a small room like this here. Ling'er said, pointing to the line on the drawing.
"Then you mean that there are two rooms above, and this small room is the entrance to the basement?" Zhang Qiang asked.
"Yes, this entrance is made like this, if you go to the basement in the future, you just need to open the door and go down the stairs. That's it for now, and you can get out of the room at any time in the future if you need to. Ling'er explained.
"Well, that's right, if it's not suitable, you have to tear it down." Zhang Qiang was calculating in his heart how to arrange this work.
"Uncle Zhang, how long do you think it will take to complete this?" Min'er is still very concerned about the construction period.
"It's almost half a month, rest assured, it will definitely be completed before the freeze." Zhang Qiang felt that ten days was about the same, and now there are many people and things are not much worse, there should be no problem, but he didn't say enough.
"That's okay, Uncle Zhang, you can do it, we don't know anything, when the time comes, you will say that the village chief let it, and if you ask anything, you will send them to ask the village chief." Min'er instructed, anyway, the village chief has benefited from her, so there is no need to use it in vain.
"Cheng, is there anything else? If it's okay I'll go back with your father, I think he's a little sleepy. Zhang Qiang glanced at Zhao He, who was wilting on the side, and said.
"It's okay, let's go." Min'er handed over the drawings to Aunt Zhang and asked her to put them away, and a few people started gossiping.
When Min'er and the others returned home the next day, the house had already returned to its original state, and Ling'er helped the two of them spread the mat and said happily:
"Sister, this will be our family from now on, why do you say it's so weird at first glance? I didn't feel anything before, but now I feel at home? Min'er looked at her stupid look, her heart warmed, and she said softly:
"Because now this is home, and it used to be someone else's room, how can you feel at home." Ling'er was right when she thought about it, it was the first time she felt at home since she came to this Dafeng Dynasty, and there was no such feeling in the east of the village. It seems that only those who have earned it through their own efforts will make themselves feel grounded, satisfied, and happy.
"Sister, how much silver do we have?" Ling'er asked.
"What? What do you want to buy? Min'er's radar-like spirit immediately sensed Ling'er's intentions.
"Huh? It's nothing, just ask. "Do you want this?
"Say, I'll listen." Min'er ignored her.
"I want to collect some leather or something, anyway, we don't have anything to do in winter, so we might as well make some leather products or something. At that time, the shops in the town will open and sell goods, or it will not only be grass products, but it will also attract people. "Ling'er wants to prepare more styles, and when the time comes, you can choose the main products.
"The money for that shop hasn't been seen yet." Min'er didn't know how much the shop in the town cost to rent, so she didn't have to think about selling it.
"I inquired, if it is in East Street, the rent is fifteen taels of silver for a year." If Ling'er hadn't inquired about it, she wouldn't have rashly asked her aunt to prepare to go to the shop to be the shopkeeper.
"The storefront on East Street is cheap, but can it work there?" Min'er was planning to find a shop on North Street.
"Sister, as the saying goes, the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, and if our things are easy to use, someone will naturally come to the door. Besides, I've figured out that I'm going to surprise you. Ling'er is very confident, there are no advertisements in this era, think about how much she has been influenced by advertising, it is a TV series that is inserted in the middle of advertisements every day.
"I still think North Street is better." Min'er is still afraid that there will be no business to come to the door, and when her shop is small, the workshop in the village will be over.
"Sister, how many times have we been to town, have you seen any empty stores on North Street? Even if there is an end, it will be sold out together, how much more money do we have to spend? Besides, the price must not be at the bottom, I heard that it costs more than 40 taels a year. "Ling'er doesn't want to be on North Street, where ordinary people go to patronize. In the future, after her various mountain goods are collected, they will be processed and sold, and the customer base at that time will be those large families, and the grade of opening a store on North Street will be much worse. It's just that these words can't be said now, and they can't be said until only the two sisters can understand it.
"Yes, let's talk about it then." Min'er said while reading that the two sisters are also very busy now, reading books for at least half an hour every day; Half an hour to practice calligraphy, of course, if there is nothing to do, it will be extended. Although their handwriting is still not visible to people now, it is much stronger than at the beginning, and Dr. Wang gave her more than a dozen books and word stickers, which is enough for them to read for a while.
"Is Min'er there?" There was a sound of the door opening the door, and when I raised my eyes, I saw Qian coming in with his second cousin.
"Auntie, second cousin, come in." When Ling'er saw it, she stuck her head out of the window to say hello, and she wasn't an outsider anyway.
"Uncle, second cousin. Sit down, I'll pour you some water, it's still a dry day. When Min'er put on her shoes and went down to the ground, the two had already entered the house.
"Don't be busy." Qian said politely.
"Mother, second brother." Xiang'er happily sat down beside Qian's.
"Uncle, second cousin, this is honey cold boiled water, this honey is still given by the eldest cousin." Min'er poured two bowls of water.
"We're here to study, I'll bring Xiang'er back today, your second cousin is here." Qian is also a happy person.
"Let my cousin stay for a few more days." Ling'er held on.
"I come here to study every day, there has to be someone in the family, your grandmother's body is not so tough, and it can be done in a day or two. If it takes a long time, I'm afraid she won't be able to stand it. What Qian said was also reasonable, and the Min'er sisters didn't say anything more.
"Nacheng, when you have time, Sister Xiang'er, you have to come." Ling'er said coquettishly that for the current Ling'er, being coquettish is as easy as drinking water, and there is no obstacle in her heart at all. Sometimes she herself doubted that she was a child, and that what had happened before was nothing more than a whimsical daydream of hers.
"Well, I'll do it." Xiang'er smiled and touched Ling'er's head.
"Okay, let's start now, aunt and second cousin, you can start learning from numbers." Min'er began to teach them Arabic numerals, telling them that they were numbers for their store's bookkeeping. The two of them studied seriously, in the end, a child's memory is good, and after a while, Wang Jizong completely learned ten numbers, but Qian is not good, remember this, forget that, but she also has a tenacity. Later, when Min'er saw that the progress of these two people was really unavoidable, she taught one by one with Ling'er, and in this way, Ling'er's house became a primary school.
In this way, it has been more than two months to learn, and Qian and Wang Jizong have no problem with arithmetic at all, but this word is still much worse, and Ling'er has no choice but to think of a stupid trick. Let them memorize all the three-character scriptures, so that they can learn on their own, and they will know what it is when they don't know it. And a lot of things happened in these two months, first of all, the workshop was built, I remember that day......
