Chapter 70: Orderly

If there is a house, people's hearts will be stable.

The thatched houses in Qinjiazhuang have become dilapidated houses and urgently need to be replaced, and building houses has become the primary problem.

But bricks have size and shape, Qin Huaidao and everyone came to the carpenter Zhou Da house, made a mold, determined the size and shape, and did not have to worry about the rest, and there was no technical content.

At the sound of an order, the whole village moved.

Qin Huaidao returned to the ancestral hall, just as the noodles were cooked, more than 200 women lined up in an orderly manner to receive them, everyone saw Qin Huaidao coming, they saluted and said hello, Mingyue came up and said bluntly: "Young master, give the sisters meat, the sisters are uneasy and want to do something." ”

"Raise your body for a few days first, don't be in a hurry."

"It's not so expensive, don't do anything, I'm afraid, young master, let's do something, right?"

Qin Huaidao can understand everyone's feelings, people need to be recognized and find the value of their own existence, otherwise they will be uneasy, so they smiled and said: "It's okay, Zhuang Shang will have a unified meal from tomorrow, three meals a day, you need someone to cook, you discuss it and see who will do it." ”

"A few hundred people can eat for a maximum of thirty people."

"Then thirty people, volunteer to sign up, and the rest will make shoes, clothes, and masks, and I will arrange someone to purchase the necessary fabrics."

"Young master, what is a mask? What kind of clothes are made? ”

"I'll give you the pattern back."

"In this way, there is no problem, the sisters will learn to be female red since childhood, and there may be high and low handicrafts, but the problem is not big, please rest assured, you must do a good job." Mingyue said happily that as long as there is something to do, everyone is not a waste, and they are not afraid of being abandoned again.

"By the way, there's something you can tell you about back." Qin Huaidao thought that the imperial court prohibited human trafficking, and Liu Er also asked Li Jing to remind him that this matter was not a joke, and he had to pay attention to it, and said: "Selling yourself into the government is against the laws of the imperial court, and you can sign an employment contract with the government, that is, you help me work, and I will give you silver, including food and accommodation." ”

When Mingyue heard that this was not much different from selling her body, and that there was personal freedom, she hurriedly said: "As long as you don't drive the sisters out of the house, everything is arranged by the young master." ”

"It's better to make it clear, the employment period is 30 years, including food and housing, and there is no need to sell yourself as a slave, 300 yuan per month, and at the end of the year, you will be rewarded according to everyone's performance, and if you find a suitable person to marry, if you want to cancel the employment, if you want to leave, you can put it forward, and you will not be blocked." Qin Huaidao explained seriously.

Mingyue smiled bitterly: "The young master is righteous and sympathetic to the sisters, but the sisters are no longer perfect, no one wants the media to marry, only wants to follow the young master for this life, but please don't drag the young master down." ”

"Let's do this for now, and arrange for the employment paperwork to be signed later." Qin Huaidao also knows some helplessness in this era, and it is difficult to persuade again, but I hope that time can change everything.

After eating breakfast, Qin Huaidao drew a pattern of masks and clothes with charcoal, first explained to Luo Zhang, sent him into the city to purchase fabrics, and then found Mingyue.

There are two pairs of clothes patterns, one is a linen gown, round neck, sleeveless, vertical cloth buttons, universal size, two pockets below can hold things, and the back shows a big red "Qin" word, which will be regarded as a unified work uniform in the house in the future.

The other is a set of stand-up collar tunics, made of black fabric, this needs to be customized according to the figure, and the word "Qin" is shown on the right chest.

Qin Huaidao, who was born in the military, is almost paranoid about the unified uniform, and the stand-up collar tunic is easier to accept in this era, and it is estimated that he will be sprayed to death if he is made into camouflage.

The two pictures are not complicated, just explain Mingyue a little, as for the mask, the three-layer gauze is sewn, and it is even more transparent, and it can be worn by people who burn brick kilns, and if you find coal, you need it more when digging coal.

Earn money, your heart can't be black!

As soon as the girls heard that they had something to do, they were still familiar with the female red, and they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, chattering and discussing the pattern, they had never seen it, and they had no bottom in their hearts.

Qin Huaidao left the drawings and returned to the ancestral hall, Xue Rengui happened to come out of the ancestral hall and asked in a low voice: "Young master, I am really going to burn bricks to build a house, this is a large amount of expenses, especially charcoal, which is worth a lot of money." ”

"You know charcoal-fired bricks?" Qin Huaidao asked in some surprise.

"I know some, I have helped people burn it before, it is said that it takes ten yuan of charcoal for a brick to be burned, and the kiln of a thousand bricks is ten taels of silver, and the wages for making bricks are less, fifty yuan is about the same, and the tiles are not cheap, plus food, the construction cost is greater, and one into the yard is at least one hundred taels up."

"So much?" Qin Huaidao really didn't know the cost of building brick houses in this era.

"This is still fired by yourself, if it is more expensive to buy, more than 200 people, even if each person has a small house, it will cost about 10,000 taels, and if it is all built into a courtyard, it will cost 20,000 or 30,000 taels of silver."

Qin Huaidao thought for a while, and said in a firm tone: "It's quite expensive, but it also has to be built, and if it is built well, maybe it can make money, I will think about this matter carefully." ”

"How is it possible to make money by building a house?" Xue Rengui looked surprised.

"Others can't, I can."

Xue Rengui was short of breath, and couldn't wait to ask, "How can you do it?" ”

"Heaven must not be divulged." Qin Huaidao said with a smile, there are some things, no one believes them.

As soon as the words fell, a team of cavalry came over, and the leader was actually Wang De beside Li Er, Qin Huaidao greeted him in surprise, hugged his fists and said, "Princess, what wind blew you here?" ”

"Chao Yilang, the old slave is polite."

Wang De said with a smile, took out a scroll from his arms and opened it, his face was straight, and he shouted: "The holy decree has arrived, please accept the decree from the court." ”

"Father-in-law, the conditions here are shabby, why don't you go to the ancestral hall?"

"It doesn't matter, the Holy Lord's permission for you to stand and listen to the decree is rare." Wang De reminded him and read aloud the meaning of the holy decree.

Qin Huaidao listened for a while, roughly meaning that the treatment of Princess Jinyang is meritorious, rewarding 5,000 acres of barren mountains, in Tongguan County, more than 100 miles north of Chang'an, after receiving the order, Qin Huaidao was a little confused, what he wanted was coal, what to do in the barren mountains, could it be that there was coal in the mountain, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Wang De.

Wang De nodded and smiled, and continued: "Holy Lord's message, stinky boy, the land has sent you, I have done what you requested, when will I do it?" ”

"Actually given away for nothing?" Qin Huaidao was overjoyed, 5,000 mu can dig a lot of coal, enough for himself for a long time, the key is not to use money, this Li Er is still interesting enough, so he arched his hand in the direction of Chang'an and said: "Thank you for the reward, Weichen straightens out the things around him, at most ten days, and set off in ten days." ”

"Congratulations!" Wang De smiled enthusiastically.

"There is a trip to Gonggong Lao." Qin Huaidao said politely, and stuffed a piece of gold cake into the other party's hand without a trace, this is the person next to Li Er, many friends and many roads.
