Chapter 4 I can be hospitalized

These changes, the bull did not take to heart. Together with the Japanese slaves he bought, he finished tidying up the trees on the 500 acres of land. It took them almost two months to do this. Of course, at this time, the other in-laws had already sorted out their land. After the trees have been cleared, they are ploughed. Originally, if this work was carried out by all human beings, it might not be completed in five months. However, now there are advanced tools, and there are many people who sell a lot of large cattle from Dachu and Xinguang City, especially some buffaloes endemic to the south, these buffaloes are very hard-working, and after adapting to the environment of Luzon, they began to work.

When the big ox first started cutting down the trees, he bought several batches of horses and bought carriages, of course, not carriages for rides, but carriages for pulling things. These are used to pull wood. Therefore, the big oxen were able to clear all the timber in just two months, and this carriage saved a lot of time.

Now that the timber has been pulled, these carriages have a new purpose, which is to pull them back and forth between their land and Qingchun City every day. Because the first batch of houses has been built, Da Niu's family, Gui Er and others have bought the first batch of houses, first, they still have some money in their hands, and the loan money has not been spent yet. At Gui Yuxia's insistence, everyone entered and bought a house.

Gui Yuxia's reason is that this first batch of houses was built for ordinary people, strong and durable, not enough to sell, and the price is not expensive, each yard only needs five or six taels of silver. Everyone can afford this little money. That way, you don't have to live in a tent. Although Luzon Island is warm, there is a lot of rain, and they are a big family. There are many people who have been sick, and they are all reasons for not eating well and living well. If you can live in your own house, with a shelter from the wind and rain, it will be much better for the elderly and children. Most of the first batch of houses were bought by craftsmen and stewards. If Gui Yuxia didn't have some face in front of Qiu Bi and them, how could she buy it for everyone?

The second reason is. Heard. This house is the cheapest to buy for the first time, and after the city is built, the house price will get higher and higher. In the future, if the family wants to buy another house, at that time, maybe. The price of this house has risen to the point where it is unaffordable. I heard that the big stewards wanted to prevent the rich craftsmen from raiding the house. It is also specifically stipulated that a family can only buy one house. If you have more, you won't sell it.

Hearing this, Gui Da said: "When I was resting in Shanghai City before, when I was shopping, I listened to the people in Shanghai City. Among the first people to buy a house in Shanghai, some of them bought two houses, and now. Sell one, and make enough money for them to live well this year without working. At that time. I'm envious. I think that our Qingchun City will be able to develop as fast as Shanghai City in the future, and it is very right for us to buy a house now. Anyway, it's so cheap, and a few months' wages will be earned. ”

In this way, these relatives who came with Gui Yuxia all chose a house and bought a set each.

Not to mention, if you don't live on a boat for such a long time, or you live in a tent, which is cramped, crowded, and the sanitary conditions are not good, and now you can live in a comfortable house with your own small yard, these people are much more comfortable physically and mentally. Looking at the owners of the surrounding land, they are also clearing the wasteland, but they haven't bought a house or a tent, and they can't help but thank Gui Yuxia, if it weren't for Gui Yuxia, they would have no way to buy a house even if they had money.

Today, Gui Da can live with his wife Gui Yuxia every day. Gui Yuxia works in the workshop every day. This word was given to him by the stewards of the county lord's mansion.

After getting off work, I bought vegetables, cooked rice, and waited for Gui Da to come home for dinner. Of course, I cooked a lot of rice, and I had to feed the five Japanese slaves.

Life went by to the fullest. Da Niu feels full of energy every day.

On this day, Gui Yuxia saw that everyone had gone home early, and after eating, she went to the courtyard next door. It was Guida's house. They all live next to each other, next to a construction site, where you can see that the second batch of houses is about to be built. I think more people will be able to live in houses. However, more people migrated from Dachu, and some tents were not enough, so more people could only be crowded into one tent. After Gui Yuxia bought a new house, they had to hand over the tent they had issued at the beginning, so that they could buy a house, if the tent was damaged, it meant that they didn't care about things, and they had to pay an extra tent money to buy a new house. At this moment, a person like Gui Yuxia's family, who is honest and knows how to repay his kindness, naturally handed over the tent and then bought a house to live in. Those who have a bad heart and don't cherish what they want to do, the tent is naturally broken, and in order to buy a house to live in, they can only spend some extra money to buy a tent. Although this matter is small, it makes these migrating people and craftsmen see that the county lord is not so generous in everything, she is a person with clear rewards and punishments, honest people can get benefits, and people with bad hearts and people who want to take advantage of them can't get good.

Guida's family is very good, but Guida's wife's family, there are still a few bad people, for example, Guida's wife's brother-in-law Li Yuniang, is a greedy person, she didn't want to come to Luzon at the beginning, but everyone wants to come, her man also wants to come, she has no way but to leave her mother's house and follow her husband's family to Luzon. After arriving, she was very unhappy about the difficult life here, and she was not active in her work, and even because she missed her hometown again, she was drenched in a rain, and under the resentment in her heart, she picked up the scissors and wrenched the tent, and later when buying a house, everyone's tent was good, only his family was bad, and she could only pay money to buy the tent. This tent is still very expensive, the price is two taels of silver, although this is not worth two taels of silver, who let you break it, as a result, Gui's daughter-in-law's mother's house, it only cost seven taels of silver to buy a yard, but it cost two taels of silver to buy a tent, a total of nine taels of silver, which can make the whole family feel distressed, if you buy land, you can buy another four acres of land. This Li Yuniang also regretted dying, but there was no way to regret it, and when the family paid the money, the whole family didn't give her a good face, and her mother-in-law even scolded her. The concubines also looked down on her. Her man is even more angry, and for such a loser, he is naturally full of old fists. Li Yuniang is now taught, put away her contemptuous heart, work diligently, and hope to earn enough money to damage the tent as soon as possible, so that she can live at home.

There is also a person here who is the mother-in-law of Gui Yuxia's sister Gui Jinxia, who was originally in charge of the house. Now when I come to Luzon, I rely on Jin Xia's maiden family, naturally, the old woman has no social status, Gui Jinxia's man, Gui Jinxia's father-in-law, unconsciously listen to Gui Jinxia's words. Besides, the old woman can only do housework and take care of a child, but Gui Jinxia has already passed the assessment on the ship, and has become a low-level embroidery girl, after a few months of study, plus her own talent is good, and the foundation is good, and now she has passed the second assessment and has become a second-class embroidery girl, who can get 800 big money every month. He is the person who makes the most money in the family. Naturally, the status is high. When the old woman saw that her daughter-in-law was riding on her head, she was naturally unhappy. As soon as she heard her daughter-in-law say that she had bought a house and had to take back the tent, she didn't believe it. This daughter-in-law must have lied to herself, where is there any retrieval of the things she sent, besides, the daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law's eldest sister are all working in the house, and the county lord is the richest person in the world, where do you care about such a broken tent. These are honest people. Therefore, the old woman lied that the tent was lost.

Gui Jinxia naturally didn't believe it anymore and looked for it everywhere, but the tent was really hidden by the old woman. Gui Jinxia searched everywhere but couldn't find it, so she had to take out two taels of silver. When it came to the day when they bought the house, because their family had a small population, they bought a small yard, which only cost four taels of silver, but when the old woman saw it, the daughter-in-law took out six taels of silver, so she was in a hurry, how could she take more? Before Gui Jinxia could explain, the steward who sold the house told the situation again, and the old woman saw that the one next door was also going through the formalities, and the tent was also broken by a corner, so it was necessary to have an extra two taels of silver, so she believed it, and she was very anxious. At this time, the steward said to Gui Jinxia that if the tent was broken, it would be enough to pay two taels of silver, and the old tent would be taken back and could still be used. But it's really rare to lose something like them, and it takes an extra five taels of silver. The old woman is going to faint. It only cost four taels of silver to buy a yard, and five taels of silver for a tent?

Gui Jinxia was also very unhappy. At this time, the old woman was busy telling the truth, saying that she had hidden the tent and was busy taking the old man and her son to find it. It turned out that she had hidden her tent in the grass under a large tree in the woods. However, I was in a bit of a hurry when I hid it, and I didn't put it away, and the tent was left here for a few days, and it was rained, and then it was bitten by insects, and small animals such as rats were bitten a few times, so that the tent became damaged.

The old woman was dumbfounded. According to her thoughts, if she really needs to hand over the tent, she will take it out again, and if she doesn't need it, she can earn a tent for nothing. However, she didn't expect this bad tent in front of her. In order to buy a house as much as possible, Gui Jinxia hurriedly took the bad tent and two taels of silver, went to the steward's place, paid it clearly, and got her own yard. (To be continued)
