Chapter 381: Confirmed
Mo Jingming's eyes lit up, looking at the painting painted by Du Jinning, and praised repeatedly: "Ouch, if you build a house according to the young master's painting, it is estimated that many people in the city want to go to your place." When I looked at this painting, I thought it was beautiful, but I didn't know what kind of beauty it would look like. ”
"What's a good way? Tell me more about it. Du Jinning didn't know if he intended to flatter himself, or if he really thought it was good to build a garden like this, so he planned to talk to him more.
Mo Jingming is obviously a well-read, has some painting skills, and has good aesthetics, so he said everything he thought was good, and he also pointed out some unreasonable or too large and expensive places.
In the end, he said: "If Young Master Du can hand over this mansion to me to build, I will only charge a construction fee of two hundred taels, and if the materials are in place in time, it can be completed in two months." ”
When Zhang Genfa heard this, he was dumbfounded, and blurted out a sentence: "Are you crazy? ”
The craftsmen under their command had to eat and make money, and they had to make a sum of money themselves, and they had to charge at least four or five hundred taels of silver to build a house in such a large area. Two hundred taels is a cost, the kind that doesn't make money at all. Mo Jingming, is this going crazy? Willing to do a losing business?
Mo Jingming ignored him completely, just looked at Du Jinning with a hopeful face, waiting for her answer.
"Uncle Mo, you are a smart person." Du Jinning said with a smile.
At this moment, she was finally relieved.
Mo Jingming completely understood the benefits of her garden. He helped Du Jinning build this house, and when those people saw the scenery of the Du family and wanted to build such a garden in the future, wouldn't they have to find Mo Jingming? No one else will build this kind of garden, only he can, and there is a model there, won't his business be endless in the future, even if the price is higher, it is estimated that others will invite him.
So he will definitely make this garden with his heart.
Seeing that Mo Jingming and Du Jinning seemed to have negotiated the business, Zhang Genfa suddenly became anxious and said, "Young Master Du, I have many craftsmen under my hands, and the construction progress is fast. I can promise you that it will not take you three months to build this house, and if you insist on such a garden, I will do it completely, and I will not lose to others. I just made a suggestion. Also, the price is negotiable. ”
The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits, Du Jinning naturally will not push away the advantage that he can take advantage of.
Du Jinning nodded at Zhang Genfa, indicating that he heard his words, and then looked at Mo Jingming: "How long is the construction period of Master Mo?" ”
We ......" Mo Jingming pondered for a moment and hesitated, "We may have four months." I don't have as many craftsmen as Zhang. ”
Du Jinning's good impression of Mo Jingming has greatly increased.
This is an honest man, not talking about flowers. She was relieved to hand over the house to him.
If you don't live in this house for a lifetime, you have to live in it for at least a few years. If it is built well, it will have a good reputation, and when the time comes, you can sell it for double or double the price, or even more. You know, if you like this garden, you can like it to the core, even if you are willing to spend more money. She's giving it to someone reliable now and spending an extra month to build it, and it's totally worth it.
She didn't continue, and directly clapped the decision: "It's still Mo Jiangtou." Saying that, he arched his hand to Zhang Genfa, "I'm sorry for Zhang Jiangtou." ”
Zhang Genfa's face was very ugly. But thinking that the opponent actually lost money to do this business, he sneered in his heart. got up and bowed back to Du Jinning: "It's easy to say." Then he took his leave and left.
"Thank you Young Master Du for your trust in me." Mo Jingming was full of gratitude to Du Jinning.
Du Jinning waved his hand, turned his head to Yao Shuqi and said: "The material, you go to find the Liang family, I remember that his family is in the wood business." However, his family is fighting fiercely, and now that Young Master Liang has gone to the capital again, you have to be careful to distinguish it. If the other party is not from Young Master Liang's line, you don't want to report my name, so as not to be a pond fish that will be affected. ”
"Yes, the villain understands." Yao Shuqi respectfully responded.
"The Liang family? What did Young Master Du say, but the Lishui Liang family? Mo Jingming exclaimed in surprise.
Du Jinning turned his head and asked unexpectedly, "What, is his family famous?" ”
"It's not just famous." Mo Jingming's face flushed with excitement, "The timber business in our province is monopolized by them. The timber for the construction of the house had to be purchased from his family. I have a small business, and I can't get a lot of rank with him, so it's more difficult to get wood. If Young Master Du can talk to the other side and ask them to provide us with timber in time, I will be able to build this house within three months." ”
In this era, all of them were wooden buildings, and as long as there was plenty of wood, there were enough carpenters, and they were skilled, so it didn't take much time to build a house.
Du Jinning said to Yao Shuqi: "Then try your best to find someone from Young Master Liang's side." ”
"Yes."
……
After all, Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan were still students of the academy, and they had to take the college exam in the fall, so it was impossible for them to stay outside for too long. After making sure that Yao Shuqi and Mo Jingming could comprehend the various ideas of the garden they built, Du Jinning packed up his things and prepared to go back to the county.
Jiangbei led Jiangnan to Du Jinning with tears in his eyes: "Young master, what should we do?" During this time, Du Jinning didn't pay attention to them at all, which made Jiangbei have to admit the fact that the young master really disliked them.
Oh, she almost forgot about the siblings.
Looking at these two people, Du Jinning had a little headache.
Take it back, her family doesn't have two courtyards, and when the time comes, such a foreign man in Jiangbei can't live next door to Du Fangling and Du Fanghui, day and night, right? married Du Fangling to Lu Xiaobei because Lu Xiaobei was good, and the family also needed such a fatherless and motherless man to support the door; Jiangbei has such a stupid and cute temperament, but he is not suitable to be her fourth brother-in-law. It's not that she thinks too much, young boys and girls, day and night, it's not too easy to rub out a small spark of love.
It's not a problem to put it in Fucheng. Qi Mansion definitely can't stay; Put them in the small courtyard near Fuxue, could it be that she bought this brother and sister to raise them as idlers? It is not enough to feed them and dress them, but they have to pay them a monthly fee every month; I live in a good house with two courtyards, and then I don't have to do any work. Is she going to buy two ancestors to offer?
Chen and Du Fangling still live in a dilapidated house, working hard every day to make money.
She turned her head and asked Yao Shuqi, "Do you need someone to run errands here?" ”
Yao Shuqi waved his hand again and again: "No, no, no." "The young master himself doesn't have a little guy yet, does he dare to say that someone who needs to run errands?
For fear that Du Jinning would arrange Jiangbei to be a partner, Yao Shuqi persuaded: "Young master, you also need a little guy." You also have a big family now, and it's not good for you to go in and out alone, and you don't even have someone to run errands and pass on words. You can take Jiangbei back. If it's inconvenient, you can let him eat and live in Dong Dacheng's house, and then give Uncle Dong some room and board expenses. Gangnam can also be arranged in this way. Usually, if you have nothing to do, you can ask your wife to arrange for them to do things, and you can't always keep idlers like this. ”
