Yun Ying's top priority is naturally to save the crops and repair the house.

After investigating, Yun Ying made a summary of her family's losses, although the crops in the sand were washed away by the flood, but because it was the autumn harvest season, the loss was not as serious as imagined, and the amount needed by Zhenweiju could be handed over on time. Although the yield of watermelons has been reduced by half, because the price given by Li Changhai is not bad, the cost of repairing the house has returned.

Yun Ying approached Yang to ask if there were any foremen in the nearby village who repaired houses and built houses with a good reputation. After hearing this, the Yang family did not shirk, and the next day he helped Yun Ying find a foreman named Liu Shan in Liushutun.

When Liu Shan came, Yun Ying was about to take Hu San's sisters and Man'er to harvest corn in the sand, so she had to hand over the basket to Hu San and let Man'er lead the way and lead the two over. Unexpectedly, Man'er and Hu Die went out hand in hand, but Hu San spontaneously turned around and sat on a bench in the corner of the alley.

"Master Liu, this is my niece Yunying. This time it was her house that built the house, so you can just talk to her about it. Yang Shi introduced the two sides, and she didn't know how to introduce Hu San next to her, so she motioned for Yun Ying to take over the conversation.

Liu Shan has been a mason for one or two decades, and now there are more than 20 people under his hands, and he can be regarded as a visionary person. Although he was a little hesitant after listening to Yang's introduction, he still nodded kindly to Yun Ying.

"Master Liu, please take a seat." Yun Ying glared at Hu San, who took the opportunity to be lazy, raised his foot and stepped on the instep of his foot, "Don't go and pour tea for Master Liu yet." ”

Hu San didn't make any moves. To him, Yun Ying's actions were no different from tickling, and he ignored Yun Ying's words, but turned his head and asked Liu Shandao: "Since Master Liu is a master who repairs and builds houses, do you know what are the rules for building a house on the sand?" What is the importance of building a house near the river? ”

This did not stop the experienced Master Liu, but it made Yang and Yun Ying puzzled, but the two of them glanced at each other and decided to wait and see. After all, Hu San once learned to build from professionals, which is much better than two people who don't know anything about building houses, so it's better to let him explore the master's bottom first.

Last night, Yun Ying and the Yang family said that the matter of building a house did not avoid Qiao Quan. Naturally, he didn't avoid Hu San. And after Hu San heard Yun Ying's plan, he also went to the original homestead by the river to take a look, and he also wanted to leave the courtyard of Qiao's family full of chicken and duck excrement as soon as possible. I don't know how long I want to stay in Lijia Village in the future, since it is the place I want to stay, I don't want to be criticized by Yun Ying, a little girl who doesn't look very reliable. It's better to take it on your own and give yourself a comfortable environment.

Liu Shan saw that both Yang and Yun Ying acquiesced to Hu San's endorsement. And Hu San's bearing is extraordinary. For a while, he couldn't figure out Hu San's identity, but since someone in the main family opened his mouth, as the foreman, he definitely wanted to explain.

Immediately. The two of them asked me questions and answered, and they discussed. The sharpness of Hu San's question made Liu Shan, a middle-aged man, more and more awe-inspiring, and even some places that he, a veteran of building houses, were not involved in, and unconsciously, he was completely led away by Hu San's question.

Yun Ying and Yang listened to one professional term after another spit out from the mouths of the two, knowing that they couldn't interject, so they could only watch silently on the side, Yang observed for a while, and suddenly leaned over to Yun Ying's ear and whispered: "Yun Ying girl, I'm afraid you really made money this time, this Hu San looks very powerful." "Being able to be appreciated by the village chief, and now being able to ask the respected Liu Shan carefully, shows that he is not a useless embroidered pillow.

"Yun Ying, do you have enough eighty taels of silver in your hand?" Hu San and Liu Shan finalized one of the building plans, and suddenly turned around and asked.

"Yes, there ......" Yun Ying subconsciously replied, she originally planned to take out a hundred taels of silver to directly put the house in one step, but now Hu San suddenly asked eighty taels, should she save twenty taels.

"Then you can take it out and make an upfront payment for Master Liu."

Hu San said it lightly, but it made Yun Ying startled, and jumped up holding the waist bag he was carrying around his waist, "Eighty taels for a fixed price?" ”

Yang was even more frightened, the embroidery needle poked directly into his finger, and he hurriedly put it in his mouth in pain, not forgetting to roar: "That's it, our yard is a brick structure, and it won't cost twenty taels of silver." Moreover, so far in Lijia Village, only the village chief and the Dong family have built a brick yard.

"It only costs one hundred and eighty taels of silver to build a five-entry courtyard, which is cheap enough." Hu San's thick eyebrows were almost brought together, which was already the simplest equipment he could tolerate considering the rural environment.

"Five into the yard?" Yun Ying gasped, "You are a local tyrant, what do you do with such a big yard in the countryside?" "Yun Ying actually wants to make a bigger yard, build a few rooms in the middle, make open space in the front yard to raise flowers and grass, raise some livestock and grow some vegetables in the back yard, and the picture of leisurely pastoral life in the imagination has long been formed in Yun Ying's mind, so Hu San's appetite is really big.

"Master Liu, don't listen to his nonsense, I'll fix ......" Before Yun Ying finished speaking, Hu San raised three fingers: "Three into the courtyard, at least the pattern of the courtyard needs three entrances." One enters the courtyard to live in the long-term worker, the second into the courtyard to make a hall to entertain guests and your brother and me, and the third into the courtyard to live you and your two sisters. ”

Master Liu was also afraid that he would finally waste the business that he had negotiated for a long time and run away, and many of the ideas put forward by Hu San were styles that he also wanted to try as a craftsman, so he nodded in agreement with Hu San's words: "It only takes one hundred and twenty taels of silver to shrink the courtyard into three courtyards." ”

One hundred and twenty taels of silver did not exceed Yun Ying's concept, and after being excited, she calmed down a little, and nodded after thinking about it for a long time, but also put forward her own request: "The bridge is being built in the village, I'm afraid there is no way to hire people in the village, I don't know if Master Liu can hire labor in other villages, I am willing to subsidize ten cents a day in addition to the salary you offer." "In the silver taels just calculated, Liu Shan has already calculated the labor wages, if Yun Ying opens his mouth to let the people of Lijia Village work, Liu Shan just feels that it is inconvenient to cooperate and has to grit his teeth and endure it; But now Yun Ying's request can be said to be in line with his intentions, Liu Shutun has more than a dozen laborers, and he only needs to hire a carriage to go back and forth every day to get dozens of dollars from it. Immediately nodded without hesitation and agreed to the matter.

This is one of them, Yun Ying also has the other: "Can you build a yard wall first, if someone asks the east and west, they will say that our family plans to follow the third aunt's family to raise chickens and ducks, so build a big yard first?" ”

Although this request was a bit strange, Liu Shan didn't care much about it, and he also accepted it generously.

"Also," Yun Ying saw that people were so simple, but felt that she had a lot of problems one after another, and smiled embarrassedly: "Before the construction, can you ask Master Liu to come up with a drawing for our family to discuss, and if there are any additions or decreases, it is better to prepare in advance." ”

"The girl didn't hear me and ...... just now This little brother's conversation? Later, I will go with my little brother to see the homestead, and then I will be able to give the drawings when the little brother starts writing. Liu Shan touched his nose, glanced at Hu San, who was not squinting, and didn't ask much about the relationship between the two.

"Did you say that?" Yun Ying didn't know that her stupid expression at this time was very cute, and her eyes on her slightly round apple face were very bright, which made people feel soft in their hearts for no reason.

"Let's go, you go and bring pen and ink." Last night, Hu San saw Yun Ying teaching Qiao Yuancheng to write, and knew that this family was not too "village".

"It's inconvenient to bring pen and ink, I went to the stove to find a carbon strip, sketch sketch, what are you doing seriously." Thinking that she was about to have a new house to live in, Yun Ying was full of energy, and Yang immediately entered the house and rolled two pages of blank paper in her hand.

When it was time to use it, Hu San and Liu Shan found that the carbon strip was easy to use, it did not take up space, did not need to be stained with ink, and the traces drawn out were still symmetrical and clean.

Yun Ying didn't know that her sometimes shrewd and sometimes dull temperament had caused Hu San to feel conflicted, and she was holding the freshly baked floor plan of the house to look at it carefully.

The graphics drawn by Hu San are worthy of being praised by Liu Shanye, without a ruler or anything, the lines on it are also straight, and the proportions are also balanced, which makes Yun Ying, who has not seen much of the customs outside the Hundred Collections, a little doubtful that this overhead world has developed far beyond her cognition in some aspects.

What Yun Ying took into account, Hu San didn't ignore it, and even did it perfectly. The pond next to the old house was also included in the scope of the house, covering the two sandy areas on the edge of the pond as a side courtyard, and the side courtyard had small doors in both directions, one leading to the outside and the other to the main courtyard.

The design of the main courtyard is very ingenious, if you don't want people to know that there are two courtyards in the back, directly close the wooden door at the entrance of the passage, and the first courtyard becomes a separate space, four main rooms, a kitchen on the left, a utility room and a toilet on the right.

The second courtyard is much wider, not only is there a place for Yun Ying to realize her idea of planting flowers and grass, but there is also an atmospheric hall and a wide corridor, and there are several more rooms than the first entrance.

There are not many houses in the courtyard of Sanjin, but there is a side door that can step to the pond in one step, and a large piece of land is enough for Yun Ying and Man'er to play to their heart's content.

Looking at it, Yun Ying saw some suggestions: thatched toilets.

The thatched latrine mentioned in Lijia Village is nothing more than a few wooden buckets in it, which are picked up and dumped into the dung pit in the ground when it is full. There was no way for Yun Ying to endure it before, but now that there are conditions, of course, she must be perfect.

But-

Imagine what she has, and how to implement it is up to the professionals. At this time, it is natural that Hu San can be called a professional in her heart. At the moment, she even talked about the idea of bathroom and toilet, and she didn't care that Hu San was so rare that she almost couldn't eat and couldn't sleep. (To be continued......)
