Yun Yi originally thought that it would take three to five days to make a bow and crossbow at the earliest.

But who knew that it was approaching evening.

Zhao Laosan sent a bow and crossbow with the fragrance of wood to him.

"I haven't seen a bow before, and I don't know if there's a problem with it."

After handing the crossbow to Yun Yi, Zhao Laosan stood aside a little crampedly.

Yun Yi played with the bow and crossbow for a long time, but he didn't find any problems, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.

He didn't expect Zhao Laosan, a rugged man, to even do carpentry so well.

"This bow and crossbow is very good, I don't think there should be any problems."

"In the past two days, you have to polish the details first, and by the way, you can take it in your hand to familiarize yourself with the feeling."

"After I've arranged the building of the house, let's go to the blacksmith shop in the city."

"Because the accessories of the crossbow machine have relatively high requirements for precision, you have to watch the blacksmith on the spot."

"As for the arrows for bows and crossbows, you memorize the drawings in the past two days, and you can build them yourself when the time comes."

When he heard Yun Yi say that there was no problem with the bow and crossbow, Zhao Laosan's face covered with scars couldn't help but feel a burst of joy.

As for the question Yun Yi mentioned later, he nodded and agreed without thinking about it.

For a man who has been fighting in the army for many years, without a weapon in his hand, it feels like he has no soul.

Now with this bow and crossbow, even if you can't get back the feeling of the golden iron horse back then, at least you can protect yourself between the mountains and forests.

After dinner, Yun Yi took ten taels of silver and walked towards his cousin's house by moonlight.

Now the wasteland by the river has been taken.

Although I haven't gone to the county office to apply for the title deed, I can already start preparing for the start of construction.

Regarding the matter of building a new house, Yunyi has eight tricks and seven tricks, and he doesn't know anything at all.

Therefore, it is safer to leave this matter to Uncle Cousin with full control.

Before he reached the door of his cousin's house, Yun Yi heard the sound of chatting and laughing from the yard from a distance.

Since the door of Uncle Tang's house was not closed, Yun Yi raised his feet and walked into the courtyard.

Walking through the shadow wall, Yunyi saw more than a dozen old ladies all gathered around the spinning wheel.

Looking on tiptoe to the middle, Yunyi saw seven or eight oil lamps hanging next to the spinning wheel.

The group of women watched the spinning wheel run while exchanging experience in the operation, and they didn't even notice Yunyi passing by the yard.

Bypassing the crowd and coming to the hall, Yun Yi saw that Uncle Tang was holding his little granddaughter and chatting with a few men.

When everyone saw Yun Yi enter the door, they hurriedly and enthusiastically gave up a position.

The people present were all peasant men, so naturally they didn't pay so much attention to it.

Seeing this, Yun Yi did not continue to hold it.

I saw him flick the hem of his robe and squeeze into the middle of a group of men.

After these people saw that Yunyi was so casual, they couldn't help but laugh out loud after they were slightly stunned.

For everyone's ridicule, Yunyi was not half embarrassed.

In the past, the reason why he held the shelf was to imitate the original owner's second goods.

Now that everyone has accepted his transformation, it is natural how to be comfortable.

When he sat down, he saw that everyone was looking at him with blank eyes.

Yun Yi didn't hesitate at the moment, and directly said his intentions.

"Now the land by the river has been bought by me."

"But I don't know anything about how to build a new house."

"I came to my cousin today just to ask you to help me support this field."

Although Yunyi has changed a lot recently, Uncle Tang also knows that he must not have counted such a big thing as building a house.

At this moment, when he heard that Yunyi asked him to help, Uncle Tang didn't think about it, so he directly agreed.

"Since you're going to build a house and a workshop on that land, you think the approximate location should have been planned, right?"

Handing over his sleeping granddaughter to Yun Peng next to him, Uncle Tang asked with his arm raised.

"As for the location of the house and the workshop, I really have already planned it."

"If Uncle Cousin has seen that there is no problem, try to build it according to this plan!"

Yun Yi said, and handed the layout plan drawn in advance to Uncle Tang.

Due to the fact that the workshop may need to use water resources in the future.

Therefore, the location of several workshops, Yunyi has thought about it in advance.

Uncle Tang took the drawings and took a general look, and saw that there were no feng shui problems, so he folded the drawings and put them in his arms.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with this layout."

"However, because your family did not prepare in advance, it is estimated that all the materials needed to build a house will have to be bought."

The people in the village build houses, and few people are willing to spend money on materials.

Generally, many years in advance, I have already begun to accumulate slowly.

For example, the wood used in a new house.

Sometimes, when villagers go up the mountain to cut firewood, if they come across suitable trees, they will cut them down in advance and put them at home to dry.

For example, the stones used to build a foundation.

When I pass by the riverbank, I see a fairly smooth stone and move it back home.

It's like ants moving, after years of accumulation, they basically have enough materials to build a house.

When it was time to start building the house, all you had to do was pay the people who helped in the village, and then you had a lunch, and the new house could be built.

Since the poor scholars in the past were dreaming of the title of the gold list all day long, it was naturally impossible to prepare these materials in advance.

"Since you want to build a new house, you can't save on materials, after all, it's a lifetime thing."

"I don't know much about materials, so I just ask my cousin to watch the purchase."

Yun Yi said, and handed the silver in his arms to his cousin.

When everyone saw Yunyi directly take out ten taels of silver, they couldn't help but be stunned.

This Yunyi really trusts this cousin to the core!

Uncle Tang didn't expect that Yunyi would delegate power to such an extent.

For a moment, his eyes flushed slightly.

After hesitating in his heart for a while, he didn't think of a more suitable way, so Uncle Cousin had to take the silver.

"Since you trust Uncle Cousin so much, Uncle Cousin, even if I work hard, I will build your house beautifully."

Uncle Tang reassured with red eyes, and then got up and flipped up the old yellow calendar hanging on the wall.

After rummaging through the dim oil lamp for a while, Uncle Cousin looked up and said:

"Three days later will be a good day to break ground, and when the time comes, I will ask Brother Yun Peng to prepare a pig's head in advance to come back."

Regarding Uncle Tang's proposal, Yun Yi naturally had no objections.

After all, building a house is a big deal, whether it is breaking ground or capping the beam, there is a lot to pay attention to.

In the past, Yun Yi naturally didn't believe in these strange forces.

But now that he has crossed over to the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is better to follow the trend of some things.

"Uncle Cousin, you just look at the arrangement, what do you need me to do, you tell me in advance."

Seeing Yunyi's attitude, Uncle Tang had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and agree.

"One last thing."

"It takes a lot of labor to build new houses and workshops."

"According to the old rules, each laborer was paid 20 wen a day, plus a lunch at noon."

"I heard that the price of food in the city is still very high, so you have to prepare for this in advance."

Yun Yi was wondering just now if there was something he forgot to explain to his cousin.

At this time, when he heard Uncle Tang say this, he patted his head and said:

"In the past, when everyone built a new house, the construction period was relatively short, and the work in the field would not be delayed."

"Now I have to build not only a new house, but also a workshop, so it will delay everyone for a long time."

"In order to make up for everyone's losses, I decided to give each person thirty dollars a day."

Wow!

As soon as Yun Yi's words fell, everyone present instantly began to discuss.

After confirming that they had heard correctly, these people did not hesitate, and all of them rushed to say that they wanted to participate.

The reason why Yunyi gives such a high salary is naturally to avoid the situation of laziness and grinding foreign workers.

After all, only when the money is in place, can the quality of your house be guaranteed.

You know, these people are half-baked masons.

In order to avoid the collapse of the house again, Yunyi would rather spend a little more money and try to ensure the quality of the project.
