Chapter 308: Three-Story Mansion

Xiao Ding and his family worked together to annihilate all the black-clothed people who came to sneak attack. After dealing with the aftermath, Xiao Ding realized the importance of defense, so he decided to teach the second girl Xiaozhu'er a few martial arts first, and teach the hand-to-hand combat skills he learned in the later army to the people in the family, so that they can have defensive power in the future.

This hand-to-hand combat technique is not a martial arts routine, but a combat skill, which belongs to the kind of skill that sees what the opponent has and then cracks it. Its essence is somewhat similar to the essence of Dugu Nine Swords mentioned in martial arts, which are all methods and techniques that use no tricks to break through and have moves. The offense is also to skillfully crack the opponent's tricks at the same time, and then carry out unexpected attacks.

Xiao Ding explained to the two girls Xiaozhuer and them for a morning, and it was not until dinner time that everyone went into the kitchen to eat breakfast.

Xiao Ding walked at the end, looking at the half-built house wall, and couldn't help but think, when will this house be fully built?

In recent days, all the workers who were working in Tian's house have gone home to be busy with spring ploughing. Whether it is their own land or renting the land of the landlord Xue, the villagers basically have land to cultivate.

Seeing that the Qingming season has passed at this time, the spring snow melts, and the snow irrigates the fields, which is a good season for spring ploughing.

Usually, the villagers do not have cattle and horses to assist in plowing the fields, and if they rely on manpower, the spring ploughing will be busy for about ten days and a half at the earliest, but this year is different, the villagers who work in Xiaoding's house can borrow Xiaoding's horses to plough the fields, so that each family has three to five days, and the land can be almost finished. Even if there is a lot of land, about seven or eight days is enough, and it will never take ten days.

Therefore, Xiao Ding is looking forward to the villagers finishing planting the land as soon as possible, and then come back to work. In fact, why don't the villagers want to? If you don't delay farming, you can come to the field to work and make money, why not?

Since this wave of black-clothed people were all annihilated by Xiao Ding and his family, Xiao Ding's family has returned to daily peace, everyone is busy every day, and life is very regular.

People who practice martial arts in the morning will get up early to practice, even Xiao'e Xiaoya and Zhao Laixi, seeing that everyone gets up early in the morning to practice martial arts, and Erniu is learning hand-to-hand combat skills with Xiaoding, they can't help but come out to join in the fun. Xiao Ding didn't get tired of it, pointing them out one by one, after all, learning is also a skill, and it can be used to protect himself at critical moments.

Among them, Xiao Zhu'er is the most serious, she is young, but she is very interested in martial arts. She was particularly envious of Tang Yunzhi's flying knife at the beginning, and once pestered Tang Yunzhi to teach her the technique of secret weapons. However, Tang Yunzhi only taught them some introductory martial arts techniques at the beginning.

After breakfast, the children will go to Zheng Die'er's room and follow Zheng Die'er to learn to read and write. The adults are busy collecting medicines, and serving the warmhouses.

Nowadays, there are not many vegetables in the greenhouse, and Xiaoding told Zhao Laixi and Zhao Hu that there is no need to pull them out and sell them first. There are many people in your own family, so it's okay to keep it for your family.

Most of the wooden boxes in the shed have been planted with various medicinal herbs. In fact, there are not many types of plants, and the medicinal materials selected by Xiaoding are all more commonly used medicinal materials, such as Poria cocos, Banxia, Angelica dahurica, etc.

Because of the common use of herbal medicines, most pharmacies will accept them, so there is no need to worry about sales. And the two greenhouses of Xiaoding's family can reach more than ten acres of planting area, which is not a small number. When it's time to harvest, you can make money by walking.

After three to five days, the workers returned to Tianjia one after another to continue building the house. The work in the greenhouse was almost done, so Xiao Ding asked Zhao Hu and the others to work together with the workers, helping to prepare all kinds of stones and wood.

Peaceful days always pass quickly, and after more than ten days, the courtyard wall of the house has been fenced. The dozens of acres of land bought by Xiaoding in the west of the village were all enclosed with a wall made of stones. Including the fan-shaped hill at the back, half of it was also enclosed. The two hot spring water that flows down the back hill eventually merge into a hand-dug canal and flow to the barren land south of the village. A small stream is formed and flows east along the foot of the hill south of the village.

The wall is almost a foot high, and the so-called high-walled compound is not false at all for the courtyard of Xiao Ding's family. This time, if the black-clothed people of Tianluomen wanted to climb into the courtyard wall, it would not be so easy. If you don't have a few light strokes, you can't climb over such a high stone wall.

Once the fence is built, the next step is to build the houses in the yard.

The pattern of Xiaoding's planning is planned according to the pattern of the house in this era.

The courtyard is divided into three floors, the front is the front yard, and the left and right sides of the gate are the gatehouses, which are also inverted seats, which are used for the residence of the family guards and other personnel.

The main house in the front yard is the eight brick houses where Xiao Ding and his family are now living, and when the house is fully completed, these eight houses will be used for the family servants to live in.

There are also two rows of wings on the left and right, with the same function, and the entire front yard is used for servants to live.

Next to the left and right wings of the front yard, there will be a moon gate on the wall, which leads directly to the east and west two cross-courtyards. These things have two cross-courtyards, which are intended to be used as guest rooms, and they are also in the layout of a quadrangle.

There is a back door at the back of the main house in the front yard, which leads directly to the middle courtyard, which is the main courtyard of the whole house. It is still built according to the pattern of the courtyard house.

However, the main house of the main courtyard will be built into a two-story small building. In the future, it will be used for Tian Dabao and his wife and Xiaofu to live. The east and west wings of the main courtyard are for Xiaoya Xiao'e and other Tian families to live in.

The main house has an ear room on the left and right, a bathroom on one side, and a kitchen on the other.

Then there is the backyard, which is connected to the hill at the back, where the main buildings are warehouses, utility rooms, livestock houses, horse sheds, etc., and are also used to store vehicles and the like.

On the west side of the west courtyard, the greenhouse is located, which is isolated by a fence and used as a planting area, and a greenhouse will be built on this vacant land in the future to continue to expand the planting area.

After Xiao Ding explained the drawings to Second Uncle Niu, Second Uncle Niu started work according to the drawings and immediately began to arrange specific manpower.

After a few days of spring ploughing, more and more people came to work in the Tian family, and Xiao Ding took all the orders, and whoever came to work was paid, as long as he didn't cheat and play tricks.

Most of the villagers are very simple and make money, and everyone has long been used to it, and basically there is no one who will steal and play tricks.

By mid-April, the number of villagers who had come to work at Xiaoding's house had reached hundreds. Many villagers from other villages have heard that not only can they earn money by working in the fields, but they also lend horses for free when they are busy farming, so they have attracted many people from other villages. Some are relatives and friends of Luoxia Village, and some are villagers from nearby villages.

When Xiao Ding saw this situation, he was secretly happy in his heart, and said in his heart that if he did this, it seemed that he should be able to build a house before he left home.
