Chapter 111: The Water Owner's Thoughts

Dong Changhe plans to complete the expansion and reapply for the deed together.

It is said that there are people in the yamen who are easy to do, and this is indeed the case in this era.

Feng County ordered only to wait for the house to be built before reissuing the deed.

The two also said that they wanted Dong Changhe to say hello when he went to the beam, and they would come to the door to congratulate them in person.

After saying goodbye to the two, Dong Changhe personally went to the owner of the water village to ask for leave.

The owner of the water village is the same age as Dong Xiucai, but he doesn't look as young as Dong Xiucai.

He is very burly, but he is more cautious, and he is more generous and kind.

He knew very well how much profit Dong Changhe had created for Shuijiazhuang over the years, so Dong Changhe asked for leave, and he agreed without thinking about it.

Knowing that Dong Changhe was expanding the house, he inquired about the general situation.

Immediately took out five hundred taels of silver to Dong Changhe, and he said sincerely, "Changhe, I have seen what you have done for Shuijiazhuang all these years and remembered it in my heart."

Originally, even if you didn't build a house, I planned to buy you a yard in the county town, or buy a shop for you.

Now that you are building a house, I have more than I have, only five hundred taels. You take it, and don't dislike it. Not enough for you to fill some yourself. ”

Dong Changhe wanted to resign, but the owner of the water village interrupted, "Don't refuse."

To be honest, I always knew that you weren't in the pool, and if it weren't for your body, you might ...... Forget it, it's all in the past, don't mention it now!

Give you this silver, don't feel sorry, I also have something to trust. ”

Although Dong Changhe didn't know why he was so generous, he still asked, "Owner, what do you say, as long as I can do it, I am duty-bound." ”

The owner of the water village has been dealing with people all his life, and he has always been very accurate in looking at people.

He didn't lie, the exaggeration of Dong Changhe's body by the outside world at the beginning was rumored that he couldn't live to be crowned.

He is a good mandarin duck, and now that he sees Dong Changhe living well, he has long regretted that he did not start at the beginning.

The owner of Shuizhuang also knew that Dong Changhe would not work in Shuijiazhuang for the rest of his life, in order to make a good fate, and also for his three unsuccessful sons.

He also made a bloody investment this time.

Of course, since Dong Changhe came to Shuijiazhuang to work, the money he has earned for him is far more than that.

He privately gives Dong Changhe a lot of wages and bonuses every year, but those are what Dong Changhe deserves.

He was also distressed when he took out the five hundred taels of silver, but compared with his son, these silver were not enough.

He said frankly: "We Mingren don't say dark words, in fact, I have long known that you will leave Shuijiazhuang sooner or later."

But I expected the day not to come so early.

In the future, even if you leave, I hope that once there is something in Shuijiazhuang, you can help me more.

Especially if one day I'm gone.

If there is a time when my three sons who are not in the form of a child? ”

Dong Changhe is a smart man, and he has long known the worries of the owner of the water village.

Back then, because of Miss Shui's matter, he did complain about the owner of the water village in private at that time, but then he wanted to open it himself.

Now even for the sake of Miss Shui's face, he can't refuse the entrustment of the owner of the water village.

So he promised, "Yes, for the time being, I am not ready to leave Shuijiazhuang."

During the period of building the house, I would come for half a day every day, and I would not delay the things in the Zhuangzi.

As for the future, the owner is still young, don't think so much.

Of course, if there is a time when I really need help in the future, as long as it is not illegal or contrary to conscience, and it is within my ability, I will be obliged. ”

The owner of the water village got up and patted Dong Changhe on the shoulder, and handed five hundred taels to Dong Changhe with his own hands, "Okay, I believe you!" You take this money, which you have earned all these years of hard work, and you need not have to bear it. ”

Dong Changhe accepted it without thinking too much.

When he returned home and put five hundred taels of silver in the hands of the Yun family, the Yun family was naturally overjoyed.

She was naturally happy that her husband wanted to expand the house, but when she thought of spending so much silver, Yun was reluctant to do anything.

But she can't deny her husband's decision, so she can only feel distressed secretly.

Now that there is this pie in the sky, can the Yun family not be happy?

It is said that according to the current prices, it will only take about 30 taels to build a house like the original Dong family in the countryside, plus the furniture in the house and the labor required.

This is still according to the high standard requirements, so much silver will be spent.

Ordinary families build a house, and twenty taels is enough.

In this way, the courtyard of the five entrances is all built into two floors, and the house is complete inside and outside, and it takes about three hundred taels.

The wing house and the livestock shed, plus the hand-copying verandah, the total cost is about three hundred and ten taels.

In addition, the courtyard wall, bluestone road, lotus pond, wooden pavilion, stone table, various saplings and digging wells, etc., require a maximum of seventy taels.

Dong Changhe also planned to wait for the house to be built, and bought a horse, two cows, a donkey, and a horse-drawn carriage and an ox cart. Also buy some farm tools. Eighty taels is enough.

With the five hundred taels of silver sponsored by the owner of the water village, Dong Changhe only needs to spend less than three hundred taels, which is completely enough.

Dong Changhe's construction of the house this time was not because of a momentary hothead, but after careful consideration.

He had this intention when he reclaimed the 300 acres of wasteland a few years ago.

During the Chinese New Year, he was also in the Yun family, and he was disgusted by the second brother-in-law he had never looked at.

People fight for a breath of Buddha to receive a stick of incense, he wants to protect his family, he wants to plan for his son's future, he can't be as good as before.

It's in the countryside, and his previous house is good enough, but compared to the real big family, it's really not enough.

Xue'er does those tedious housework every day, and goes to the river to wash urine rings in winter, he doesn't see it.

Since he wants to cultivate his daughter and support his children, he can't get by like before.

Facades are a crucial thing at all times!

In those years, he was also worried that he would not survive to reach the crown, and he was worried that he would have no queen.

No matter how big his stall is, I don't know who I made a wedding dress for!

Now that his body is angry, his wife is lucky to give birth to a son for him, and he has a head, and his thoughts are naturally different from before

I have to say that Dong Changhe thinks long-term, and he is also a person with a good face.

Dong Changhe and his wife would not say these things to Xue'er, she didn't know about it.

The house behind the construction does not affect the front yard here at present.

Dong Changhe provided food and vegetables to Chef Cai, and they only borrowed the kitchen in the west and used their own chef to cook food, without the Dong family taking care of the cooking.

This saved Yun and Xue'er a lot of time.

At the beginning of spring this year, Yun bought six more piglets at a neighbor's house.

Yun can guess why her husband is expanding the house, and her husband has already told her about his future plans.
