Chapter 104: Building a House
On the second day, Yang Zixi dragged the eldest Sun Dewang into Huaizhou City to go through the land relocation procedures, which was regarded as officially getting the title deed of the house and the nearby wasteland, but there was a lot of trouble in Xiangfang Village.
Chen Popi was originally an unconscious person, but now that he found his father's bones, he took advantage of it, and became more and more unforgiving. He found out all the people who talked about his father's elopement one by one, claiming to find out the murderer of his father. Who didn't say two words about the gossip back then? As a result, almost everyone in the entire Xiangfang Village became a suspect.
The villagers are all in danger, and they don't dare to offend Chen Popi on the surface, but secretly complain about the newcomer Yang Zixi, if it weren't for the outsiders surnamed Yang who fished out the bones, how could they cause so much trouble?
Fortunately, the Shoushan Mansion was not in the village, and Yang Zixi avoided looking up and seeing the villagers without looking down. The next interrupted day is her busiest time, the house needs to be renovated, and the amount of work is really not small. She bought a large number of green bricks to pave the floor, and the medical hall saw a lot of blood, and the wooden floor could not withstand scrubbing; I ordered a lot of lime and red paint, and I was going to paint the house inside and out.
Yang Yi and the others are not carpenters, and they can still do it when they go up the mountain to cut trees and prepare wood, but they are not very good at making household utensils. After Yang Zixi considered it, he sent someone to invite a few carpenters from Baishi Village, five miles away, to do the work, including food and lodging, and gave a lot of wages, and the requirement was to build utensils according to her drawings, and not to ask too much.
The first entrance to the house, the long room attached to the courtyard wall was converted into a patient room, equipped with beds, tables and chairs on wheels. The main house in the second entrance was vacated, and Yang Zixi was ready to transform it into an operating room; The east wing is used as a laboratory, while the west wing is used as an outpatient clinic. Yang Zixi ordered the original windows to be removed and enlarged into floor-to-ceiling windows. And a slope was made of stone beside all the steps, so that the utensils could be pushed forward.
"The owner. That's not going to work! The yellow carpenter in Baishi Village was busy and worried, "The hot kang has been removed and changed into a bed, and it still has wheels?" The window is twice the size when it is opened, and the window paper is pale, so won't it freeze to death this winter? ”
Yang Zixi smiled and said, "I have my own opinions, you don't have to ask anything, just do your work." ”
Lighting in hospital wards and operating rooms is the most critical issue. The ancient house will be dark and pressed on a cloudy day, which will not only hinder the treatment, but also affect the patient's mood. So she ordered the windows to be at least doubled in size and made them floor-to-ceiling to increase the lighting area.
However, after the windows became larger, how to keep them warm was put on the agenda. Ordinary window paper Yang Zixi is definitely not ready to use, firstly, it is not windproof, and secondly, it is easy to be damaged. The goal in her heart is Ruri.
There is a glazed workshop in the city of Huaizhou, which is only for the royal family, officials and monasteries to burn glazed tiles. But it's not that there is no way to change some, many wealthy families in Huaizhou have quietly used glazed tiles, and she plans to tinker with some flat white glaze to make windows, which is completely different from those colorful glazed products. Ordinary people generally can't see it. In fact, if she didn't remember the formula of the glass and couldn't make the glass herself, where would she look at a translucent thing like glass?
The hot kang was canceled. Instead, plumbing, which she ordered to be laid under the bricks, has been left with waterways. In winter, hot water is boiled and poured into the waterway and circulated in various rooms. The thermal conductivity of the green brick is good, and the house is warmer, which is better and safer than the hot kang that burns smoke. And hot water will not be wasted, the hospital is a place with a lot of water, and the circulating water is constantly burning, but I am afraid that it may not be enough.
As for the hospital beds and furniture, wooden wheels are installed for easy access. Although there are a lot of stainless steel beds and wheelchairs in the space hospital, she doesn't plan to exchange them, firstly, it is a pity to waste the treatment value on the bed wheelchair, and secondly, this kind of commonly used things are made of steel, and I am afraid that it will cause trouble if it is circulated, after all, it is still an era when iron weapons are strictly controlled.
Of course, the cost of this transformation is not small, and I don't know if it is enough to smash hundreds of taels of silver. But Yang Zixi doesn't care, in her opinion, the silver is earned, not saved, as long as the hospital opens and has income, there is nothing to worry about.
So the flowing silver spends out, a large number of things are moved in and out, and soon the movement of the house attracts the attention of the people of Xiangfang Village.
"See? The foreigner's surname Yang is really rich! The flowing materials were transported in, and those who didn't know how to do it thought they were building a palace! You said that Miss Yang was so young, where did she get all this money? Don't make ill-gotten gains, right? Standing at the foot of the archway, looking at the wagons and horses heading towards the house at the foot of the mountain, a woman picked her teeth and said to her companions.
"Big! Don't look at it, your eldest girl is working in the Yuwang Mansion in the city, and the one she lives in is the palace! Even if we have money in a poor place, what kind of magnificent house can we build? I'm afraid it's just four dislikes! My Huanggen's craftsmanship is so good, the girl surnamed Yang doesn't know the goods, so she doesn't come to ask us Huanggen to do work, but she has to go to Baishi Village to invite the yellow carpenter's family, what is the result? I've heard that the girl is ignorant, and she sent someone to pick up the kang head of the window, and she tossed it all around! The woman who accompanied her replied with a smile, her man was a carpenter from Xiangfang Village, and this project did not have his family's share, and she was already unhappy in her heart.
When the eldest girl heard this, she liked it very much. She has heard a lot of praise for her daughter, and she never gets tired of hearing it. In her early years, she was not angry, and only gave birth to two daughters, and she couldn't hold her head up among the women in the village. Later, in a famine year, the poor family couldn't open the pot, so they had to sell the big girl who was less than ten years old to traffickers.
I didn't expect it to be a blessing or a curse, the eldest girl looks like a peugeot, and her life is good, she entered the Yuwang Mansion and was promoted to a second-class maid in a few years. Since then, her family has raised their eyebrows in the village, and every year the things brought back by the big girl are rare things that the village has never seen, and their family of three has become a beautiful figure in the village.
Therefore, it is better to say that a phoenix girl is better than giving birth to a son! What about the five sons of the Li Chang family? It's not the life of Kuha Luha farming?
She replied with a smile: "It's all said, my eldest daughter has been renamed by the master, and now she is called Yuqing, you are still called a big girl, when will you change your mouth?" ”
The women next to her laughed and said, "Isn't this what you've been used to since childhood?" Cordial! ”
The women laughed together, and went to the village with the big girl and her mother phoenix in their arms.
However, he said that the progress of the project was catching up day by day, and seeing that the waterway was also paved and the blue bricks and stones were also installed, he was waiting for the water diversion trial.
The dead man was scooped up from the well in the house, and naturally it could no longer be used, so after that day, Yang Zixi ordered someone to plug the well early, planning to find another way to find a new water source. The hospital uses a lot of water, and it will definitely not be possible to pick it up from the river. Yang Zixi's plan is to bring fresh water all the way from the river in front of Xiangfang Village.
There is a Xiangfang village between the house and the river, and unless there is a detour, the aqueduct has to pass through the village. Yang Zixi thought about it again and again, and finally found Sun Lichang.
Along the row of houses, I walked to the door of Sun Lichang's house, and the courtyard wall was brighter than other houses. Although it is a small farmer, the outside of the house is neatly cleaned up, and the wall is also freshly powdered, which is white, and it makes people feel comfortable when they look at it, which is much stronger than the two yellow earth courtyard walls next door.
Yang Zixi asked Yang Yilai to hand over the post the day before, and I heard that Sun Yaoyi, the second son of Sun Lichang, had studied for a few years, although he was not admitted to Nanhuai Academy, but he could also read letters to the villagers on weekdays, write couplets or something, and he was half a literati, so he must not be able to understand the words on the post.
Sure enough, before she arrived at the door, Sun Lichang's wife Chen greeted her.
"Miss Yang is really from a scholarly family, and she is particular about doing things! A village in the village also learned how to deliver posts from the city, but he knows the rules! "Chen is over forty years old, and he is still young when he is well maintained, not as black and yellow as ordinary village women, but a little rich. She smiled and stepped forward to take Yang Zixi's hand, looked up and down, and continued to say good things in her mouth: "I have long heard my old man say that although Miss Yang is young, she is capable, but she didn't expect to be so young!" ”
Saying that, he caught a glimpse of Zi Du next to him, Chen was startled for a moment, and then he came back to his senses and said, "Good girl! This is Ling Mei...... Still is...... How did you get so Peugeot? (To be continued......)
