Chen Hanlin has been very busy recently, and Zhao Xiang gave him a bunch of drawings, which are too subtle to study. Then there are those magical woodworking machine tools, although the processing effect is not as fine as artificial, but it is more efficient, especially for large material processing, which is not comparable to manpower.

So he's been spending most of his time in the prefabricated house at the back of the wooden house. His two apprentices also spent there every day.

When Zhao Xiang entered the prefabricated house to find Chen Hanlin, he was scolding the two apprentices: "Selim! After only a few years of learning three-legged cat kung fu, I want to replace the guy handed down by my ancestors with a machine? Selim's Dark-Eyed Dog! Look for yourself at the mortise you punched, can this mortise be connected? Are you going to use it to pick up the wood or your ** to plug it? Selim's, give me a new fight, and don't touch these machines for me if you don't fight well! ”

The eldest apprentice was scolded, lowered his head and took the mortise knife to re-eye, the little apprentice was secretly having fun on the side, and was seen by Chen Hanlin, and he was also scolded: "Selim's!" You touch the surface of your planed board yourself, it is rougher than Lin Bei's (Lao Tzu)'s feet, you want to eat on this! Embarrassed to laugh? I told you that the machine is not omnipotent, you don't even have the kung fu to plane, and you still have the face to tell Lin Bei to polish with a machine, why don't you use your face to grind! ”

A carpenter gives the impression that he should be quiet, but Chen Hanlin scolding people is no worse than his skills, if it is not for fear of hindering civilization and being easy to be crabbed, Zhao Xiang wants to take the full version of the video of Chen Hanlin scolding his apprentice back to modern times and post it on the Internet.

He Defang deliberately coughed loudly twice, and Chen Hanlin found that the two were standing at the door, thinking that he had just said that the machine was not omnipotent, and he was a little embarrassed: "Mr. Zhao, I didn't say that your machine is not good......"

Zhao Xiang said with a smile: "I said when I handed over these machines to you, the machines were originally for people, these things are just used to improve efficiency, and the real skills have to rely on craftsmanship, if there are these machines can let go of the basic work of carpentry, I dare to guarantee that the work is not much better." ”

In fact, think about the shoddy woodworking furniture in modern times, the solid wood table bought for thousands of dollars may be directly connected with iron nails to connect the various parts, looking at it is cold, not to mention home decoration, the nail hammer is horned into the wooden board, it is almost fast, but if you want to use it for ten years and eight years, you have to rely on luck.

Zhao Xiang couldn't take Chen Hanlin to modern times, but he was able to build a house with more traditional craftsmanship here. However, he came here to let Chen Hanlin do the work of carrying the spirit of a craftsman - building a prefabricated house.

Since it is a prefabricated house, the nature has already been decided: temporary.

The purpose is also very clear, that is, it exists as a store. The store was originally going to open in the city, but the household utensils such as selling iron cattle were not suitable for the city, and the demonstration was inconvenient, so the location was simply chosen on the wasteland on the other side of the river outside Wutian Village.

There are a lot of Zhao Xiang in the prefabricated house, all of which are stored in the photos, but how to take them out is an art. Twenty young men were taken by Zhao Xiang to the river to level the land, and Zhao Xiang went to the newly built warehouse under the lifting platform alone, and swiped out all kinds of equipment and materials to be used from his mobile phone.

The land by the river does not need to be leveled in the first place, it is nothing more than to get rid of weeds. As soon as everyone was done, they were called to the warehouse to move materials, and it took less than two hours to assemble a two-story building covering an area of 80 square meters. Six large wooden stakes were even drilled around the perimeter and steel cables were pulled to hold the prefabricated house in place – it is said that typhoons often hit Zhangzhou in the summer.

The front half of the first floor is the hall, and the back part is the storeroom.

"The site in front should also be tiled, Mr. Zhao, do you think it is better to use sand or pebbles in the river?" Chen Hanlin pointed to the trampled grass in front of the small building and asked.

Zhao Xiang wanted to say that what he wanted was a big bluestone floor, but that was too unrealistic. He has been to see the stone floor, and it is so expensive that he decided to buy some equipment and make it more cost-effective.

Cement was of course the fastest and most convenient, but he never felt anything beautiful about the concrete floor – perhaps, but he hadn't seen it yet. Therefore, the square floor tile has become the best choice.

As a result, the most commonly used trolley on construction sites has appeared on the stage of history. Transporting sand from the bank of the Zhangshui River to the front of the building, if you pick it by manpower, you can only make a trip of 100 catties, but it can reach 3 or 400 catties with a trolley, which is easier. After tamping it down, he went to the warehouse to move the square floor tiles.

Zhang Wen was very interested in the work of smashing the floor tiles into the wet sand with a rubber hammer, and he finally grabbed a hammer, so he took a group of friends to operate it in the corner. After half a day, he couldn't get a brick, so angry that Zhao Di was angry, while Zhao Xiang was not paying attention, he ran over and was about to kick it, and found that he was wearing cloth shoes, so he took off his shoes, and when he wanted to kick again, Zhang Wen had already run to Zhao Xiang.

The clothes of the two siblings seemed out of place in this era, but in the eyes of these villagers, although these clothes were a little weird, they could only be made of excellent fabrics and excellent female red. At the beginning, everyone joked a few words, and when they saw it again, they got used to it, after all, Zhao Xiang appeared in front of everyone in this weird dress from the beginning, since he could get used to Zhao Xiang's dress, then the two sisters and brothers who were used to following Zhao Xiang's life were also a convenient thing.

Iron Bull has seen all the people, what else is there to make a fuss about?

"Sir, my sister is going to beat me!"

Zhao Xiang was holding a large tape measure and was thinking about finding someone to help, and Zhang Wen sent it to him. Looking back at Zhao Di again, she immediately shrunk her shoulders and slowed down, looking down at her shoes and walking cautiously. The two of them were arrested, and they were able to measure the large wasteland across the river in front of Wutian Village.

The wasteland between the two paddy fields is not considered land, because there is no need to pay taxes, but the ownership belongs to Zhao Xiang, which is clearly pointed out by Chen Zhusi at the beginning - Zhangzhou has always only recognized the fields of the register, and of course it also encourages the cultivation of wasteland. There is an incentive policy to exempt newly cultivated fields from tax for three years after the registration is made. As for when the new farmland will be registered, it depends on two points: first, whether the relationship is strong enough, and second, whether there are officials who want to make a difference.

Zhangzhou is located in the southern barbarians, and the officials who come here are indeed officials who want to make a difference, such as Zhu Xi and Zhu Dashen, who will be appointed to Zhangzhou in six years in history - what these exiled officials want to do most is to get rid of this place quickly, and want them to settle down to do something practical, which is difficult!

It is precisely like this, over time, the wasteland in Zhangzhou is not land in the eyes of the government - the probability of building land is only a few miles away in the sub-city, outside the city, no one is willing to reclaim the wasteland, there are really few people who have the leisure and financial resources to build a big house, anyway, the backyard expanded by Chen Chun Chen Xiucai, the first rich man in Liushui Village, is only one and a half acres, it is said that their family has been expanded three times in three generations, and now it only covers an area of four acres.

Of course, the fields that Chen Chun's family was originally registered but were deserted and not planted still exist in the form of cultivated fields in the archives of the government. It's just that as a showman, he doesn't have to pay taxes.
