Chapter 14 There is a crisis in the Wei Mansion
The night was dark and the wind was high, and the people in the stone ground fell asleep. And on the cement road on the street, two fat and thin people pointed at the cement road.
"Not to mention that this young master of the Wei family is quite capable, this road is really like a thing!" The fat man was the first to speak, turned around and patted the thin man on the shoulder.
"Shhh...... yes, yes, hiss...... But landlord, can you lift your feet first? Hiss...... You're on my feet!! The thin man pleaded as he inhaled the cold air.
That's right, these two people are the landlord and his butler. During the day, the landlord was embarrassed to come out to see because of his face. But I can't stand people's praise for this road. I had to come out at night to find out.
But it's a pain for the housekeeper. The black light is blind, who would have thought that since this landlord saw the road, it was an excited step and three turns!
But excitement is excitement, his weight of more than 300 catties stepped on the butler's feet as soon as he turned around. All the way, the housekeeper cried.
The next day, news came from the Wei Mansion that Young Master Wei was going to repair all the roads in the stone field. This time, the coke broke the residents, and praised Young Master Wei for his domineering.
The prelude to a road construction battle began, starting from the Wei Mansion, a cement road spread to all parts of the stone field.
The residents were very happy, looking at the concrete road that had been repaired to their doorstep and cheering.
At the moment, there was a crisis in the Wei Mansion.
At this time, in Wei Jian's room, Wei Jian and the four girls were sitting at the table discussing things.
"Young master, why don't we build roads! We're running out of money! Xiaomei said worriedly.
"Yes, young master, a few subordinates have left since yesterday!" Xiao Ju also had a sad face.
"If you continue to cultivate like this, you may run out of money for food!" Xiaolan also opened her mouth to persuade.
Wei Jian took a sip of tea, glanced at the four women and said, "Can our money last until the road is completed?" ”
"Maybe you can't hold on, because the digging of the mountain in the back mountain costs money, and it costs money to transport sand and gravel on the side of the dry stone river, and there are blacksmith ......shops," Xiaomei opened her mouth, and her three daughters were silent.
Wei Jian thought for a while and said: "That's it, let's stop the excavation of the back mountain, let them all go to build the road, and the rest will be as it should be!" ”
"But ......"
"No, let's do it!"
Xiaomei's words were interrupted by Wei Jian as soon as she spoke, and the four girls had to turn around and leave.
A month passed quickly, and the stone road was finally completed. All the inhabitants were in a revelry.
During this period, the Wei Mansion also changed greatly with the completion of the road.
"Young master, all the people in the house are gone!" Xiaomei stood at the door of Wei Jian's room, this day Wei Jian closed the door, and no one was allowed to enter.
This is Xiaomei's most repeated words every day in the past month, since the Wei Mansion has had financial difficulties, the people in the Mansion have slowly walked from one to the present.
"Hey!" Xiaomei sighed and turned to leave!
When the residents of Stone Town came back to their senses from their joy, they remembered that the Wei Mansion had given them a month's wages and had not mentioned it for a long time.
This idea is not only for the residents who build the road, but also for the sand and gravel haulers, and the blacksmiths of the blacksmith shops.
For a while, the door of the Wei Mansion was knocked on hundreds of times a day, all of them to ask for wages, but they could not have imagined that the Wei Mansion at this moment had reached the point of poverty!
Wei Jian has been closed since the financial crisis in the Wei Mansion. Even the meals are only delivered to the door.
And the four daughters of Meilan Zhuju also have their own thoughts, especially the knocking sound from the gate of the Wei Mansion in the past few days has made them panic.
