Chapter 557: Build a High Wall
Dalu shook his head, "I guess they know me, I don't know them, hehe." ”
Dongzi glanced at him, "That's it, so the money is not so easy to make, I don't know the medicinal materials, I guess I went up the mountain, and I stepped on the precious medicinal materials under my feet, we don't know." ”
"Okay, let's do some hard work." Dalu just gave up the job of collecting medicine that he thought was very profitable.
Things turned out to be as Lu Xiaoxi expected, the next day, many people in the village came to her, meaning to sell the monkeys, three or five per person, although it was less, but she also collected it according to the original price.
In fact, she didn't have any loss, who didn't take it, but everyone sold a little, and no one made a lot of money, and soon, the monkeys in the village were almost caught.
And when Lu Xiaoxi was delivered to the restaurant for the last time, he discussed with Steward Wang and sold him the method of cooking, and the autumn harvest was about to begin, and he didn't have time to come over to deliver the goods, and he didn't want to run out of stock.
The king had no reason to disagree, it was a one-and-done method, and there was no need to limit it, and he thought it was very good.
Lu Xiaoxi didn't have a lion's big mouth, and asked for five taels of silver, but Steward Wang felt that it was very reasonable, so he made a deal directly.
Lu Xiaoxi wrote down the steps of cooking on the paper in detail, as well as what seasonings are used here.
Steward Wang took the recipe and looked at it attentively, "Girl, your handwriting is good." ”
Lu Xiaoxi smiled, "It's all taught to me by my father, I haven't written seriously for many years, and I'm still a little shaky." ”
Before leaving, Steward Wang still told her that if there were any strange dishes, this was her first choice.
Lu Xiaoxi also agreed, after all, after doing business so many times, and knowing each other a little, if the price gap is not very large, she will definitely not change people to cooperate.
Next is to be busy with the autumn harvest, now that the weather is cold, how long can the food you buy can be put away, before the autumn harvest, Lu Xiaoxi plans to build the wall, but she doesn't plan to use stones, the stones are not strong enough, this time she plans to use green bricks, the base is high, and the wall of green bricks is not easy to climb.
She went to the place where the bricks were sold and asked the price, people saw that she was a small girl, and they didn't pay much attention to her, all the people who came here were men, building houses and walls or something, Zhang Luo must be men for this kind of thing.
However, Lu Xiaoxi is also a female doll, the advantage is that it is easy to bargain, she speaks politely, and people are not too concerned with her female doll.
In her previous life, when she was in the old man's house, she was trapped in this high wall of blue bricks, and she counted how many bricks there were on that wall, so she knew exactly how many bricks she needed for her small courtyard.
According to the height she requested, she had to be full of three carts of green bricks, and the people who sold bricks were chatting because she was just chatting, but she didn't expect the little girl to come for real, one or two silver and three carts of green bricks, and send them to home, Lu Xiaoxi felt that it was very cost-effective.
After reporting the address, Lu Xiaoxi also fished out a free car to sit in.
She sat in a car full of green bricks and went back, and the people in the village were quite surprised, buying green bricks is either to build a house or build a wall, what else can you do, you can't come to eat, right?
Everyone looked at Lu Xiaoxi, and they used to have sympathetic eyes, but now, sympathy has turned into envy.
What do you envy?
is a little girl doll, relying on her own hands, raising her younger brother, and also for him to study in the school, how many parents are in the baby, and there is no money to go to the school.
Also, people want to buy so many green bricks, and the countrymen build houses, but they are reluctant to use such good things.
The blue brick courtyard wall of Lu Xiaoxi's house, after it was built, was the first in the village.
Who can not envy?
In fact, Lu Xiaoxi still wants to build a house, but to build an ordinary house, it is better not to build it, if you want to build it, you can build a good one, but she calculated, green bricks, wood, artificial, and it will cost a dozen taels.
She can take it out, but there are still more places to use the money, and the house is not leaking, so she can make some concessions, and when she builds the wall, let the two of them help strengthen the roof.
Lu Xiaoxi has money to build a wall, and I heard that it is to spend money to hire people, and the business can't go on.
He doesn't know it now, the land was taken away by Lu Xiaoxi, if he knew, it would be strange not to blow up the nest!
The first car of green bricks has just been unloaded, and the person who delivered the green bricks is going to go back to get the second car, which must be delivered before dark.
Before Lu Xiaoxi returned to the house, Lu Lao Er came slowly, and there was still the smell of alcohol on his body.
When Lu Lao Er saw Lu Xiaoxi, he was angry, it stands to reason that Lu Xiaoxi didn't recruit him, but he just didn't go well, the people in the village said that the Lu family has two rooms, and the people in their second room are not as capable as a girl who has no father.
These words were simply a great shame, and he couldn't hold his head up.
"Ah, second uncle, why are you here?" Lu Xiaoxi knew that he appeared at the door of the house, and he was definitely not looking for someone else, that is, he was coming for himself.
Lu Lao Er drank the wine, his face turned red, and an unpleasant smell floated out of his mouth, "Why can't I come?" Xiaoxi, you're quite capable. ”
"Second uncle, why did you suddenly praise me?" Lu Xiaoxi pretended not to understand, and continued to laugh and laugh with him.
"Praise you, yes, I don't have to praise you!" Lu Lao second-hand leaned on the low wall, looking at those green bricks, his eyes were red with jealousy, "Our Lu family has raised a powerful girl, the front family is so difficult, you cry poor, it's good now, this is all used to hurt the green bricks, I think you have money to burn." ”
"Second uncle, what do you say, when there is suffering in the family, I really don't have any money." If you have money, I won't give it to you.
"And where did all this money come from?" Lu Lao Er kicked the green brick with his foot, and as a result, his toes hurt painfully, "Could it be that someone gave it to you for nothing?" ”
"Second uncle, are you laughing again? I don't have more eyes and more noses, why should people give it to me for nothing, these are all earned in the past few days, and they are all cheap. ”
It's not cheap Lu Lao Er doesn't know, he didn't use the house built of blue bricks, maybe it was okay before, but then his business was lost, and his family was squandered by the losers, and the days to come will point to Lu Xiaohao getting ahead.
"Cheap ones also need money."
Lu Xiaoxi was not in a hurry, "I need money, but the courtyard walls are all outsourced, and we are sisters and brothers at home, close to the side of the mountain, if there is a beast or a bad guy or something, then it will be suffered, I don't want to, or second uncle, you let me and Xiaozhou go to live for a while!" ”
As soon as he heard that the two of them were going to live, Lu Lao Er's wine woke up in fright.
"How do you live? I don't have a place at home! ”
"Then there's no way, I still think that if the second uncle is willing, I won't have to spend this money."
Lu Laoer's head shook like a rattle, "No, there is no place at home, but if you want to build a wall, you can also use stones." ”
"There is no one at home who can do the hard work, and the stones have to be moved and picked up, so instead of spending money to hire people, I might as well buy green bricks."
The truth is such a truth, but Lu Lao Er just feels uncomfortable, how can this girl still say so much now, when he says a word, she will reply, see what she can do.
"In short, there is money to save, our family needs to spend more money, your grandmother is old, you are not filial piety as a junior, and your lobby brother also needs silver to study."
Lu Xiaoxi felt ridiculous, why did she have to give money to Lu Xiaohao to study, if they treated them well, it would be fine, but how did they treat their brothers and sisters?
The loss also has this face and said, "Don't worry, your elder brother will be an official in the future, and if you provide him with education, he will not forget you." ”
Not to mention that Lu Xiaohao can't get into the fame at all, even if he does, he is not a good official, let alone a person who thinks of kindness.
Lu Xiaoxi won't give it to him if he has money, "Second uncle, look at what you said, if I am rich, of course I have to think about my cousin, I still expect him to take care of me in the future, but you also saw that if I am rich, I will clean up my broken house, isn't this no money?" If it weren't for the courtyard wall, I wouldn't have spent this money, and I'm still worried about what to do in the future. ”
As soon as Lu Xiaoxi cried poor, Lu Lao Er was scared, worried that she would come to her own house.
After talking for a while, the wine also sobered up a little, Lu Xiaoxi deliberately asked in order not to let him make trouble again: "Second uncle, my house is about to build a wall, and I don't understand anything, do you have time, help me figure it out." ”
As she expected, Lu Lao Er immediately refused, "How can I have time, there are a lot of things at home, you can figure it out yourself." ”
After saying that, Lu Lao Er was afraid that Lu Xiaoxi would pestered him again, and the soles of his feet were smeared with oil, and after returning home, he even asked the people in the family not to appear in the past few days, so as not to be seen by Lu Xiaoxi, and let them help.
Lu Xiaoxi just thought it was funny, Lu Lao'er's lazy problem was really invincible, but it was okay, and he wouldn't be able to come to his own trouble after that.
In the past few days of building walls in Lu Xiaoxi's house, Hei Wa's father and Hei Wa Niang have come to help, of course, there are others, Lu Xiaoxi is very grateful, delicious and delicious to entertain people, as for Dongzi and Dalu, they work harder when they take the money.
As for the people of the Lu family, they didn't show up for so many days, and they were afraid that Lu Xiaoxi would find them to work, however, there was no impermeable wall, and when they knew that Lu Xiaoxi was giving labor money, they were red-eyed and couldn't sit still angrily.
Lu Lao Er means that if she is rich and cheap, outsiders will not give it to her family, this girl must have an outside heart, just to scold her.
