The layout map drawn by Yun Yi was officially determined after being confirmed by Uncle Yun Hai, who was familiar with the construction of the house.

According to Yunyi's plan, the first phase of the project mainly builds blue brick houses and textile workshops.

Since the ground breaking date was set for three days later, the time to purchase materials was a bit tight.

In the past two days, not only Uncle Cousin and Yun Peng have been so busy that their feet don't touch the ground, but even Yun Yi has been instructed to run the brick and tile workshop several times.

Although the preparation time is a little tight, it is due to the sufficient budget given by Yunyi.

Therefore, those workshops that sell materials are also happy to give convenience.

Yunyi's family built a house, and his salary was thirty yuan a day.

After the news spread, there was an endless stream of people who came to Yunyi and Uncle Tang's house to sign up every day.

Due to the high price of Yunyi, the pressure of competition is relatively large.

Considering the recent high food prices, these people who came to apply for the draft have consciously given up the condition of managing rice.

Everyone wants to make more money before the winter, so that they can have a fat year during the Spring Festival.

Of course, there is also the credit of the old ladies in the village.

After all, after the winter, the people in the village basically have no income.

If you can build a workshop before winter.

Then after the winter comes, they can also have a very good income by working in the workshop.

Three days passed in a flash.

Although the preparation for building a house was tedious, there were no mistakes.

Of course, the silver in Yunyi's purse also spent more than a dozen taels like flowing water.

Early in the morning.

The moon was still hanging high in the sky, and Yun Yi and Shen Youwei got up from the bed early.

Before I had eaten two bites of breakfast, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

Yun Yi opened the courtyard door and saw his cousin with a happy face.

He was followed by his aunt and Yun Peng, who was carrying a basket.

After the cousin's family entered the door, they set up an offering table in the courtyard.

Yun Yi first worshiped the ancestors under the instructions of his cousin, and prayed for the ancestors to bless him with peace and prosperity.

Then the group went to the wasteland by the river, and the sacrifice was repeated as usual.

When the first rays of morning light fell on the earth, cousin Yunpeng lit the firecrackers that had been prepared for a long time.

Under the guidance of his uncle, Yun Yi took a shovel and symbolically gouged twice on the ground.

At this point, the entire process of starting construction is complete.

When the firecrackers sounded, the people in the village who helped build the house had already gathered here one after another.

So as soon as the sacrifice ended, Uncle Tang didn't be polite to everyone, and with a wave of his hand, everyone was busy.

Because of the control of Uncle Cousin and Uncle Yunhai.

So after breaking ground on the new house, Yunyi became idle.

Stayed at home for another two or three days.

I saw that I really couldn't help much.

After explaining to Shen Youwei, Yun Yi took Zhao Laosan to the ox cart that entered the city.

Although I have bought the wasteland by the river, I haven't had time to go to the county office to apply for the title deed.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Yun Yi decided that it would be safer to go to the county office as soon as possible to go through the procedures.

In addition, Yunyi not only gave the government a solution to the food crisis, but also took out sharp farming tools such as cylinder carts and curved plows.

According to past experience, the government still has to give some rewards to comfort people's hearts.

Nowadays, new houses and workshops are being built at the same time, and the speed of spending money is like flowing water.

If you can get this reward, it should also relieve the pressure on funds.

Because of the construction of a new house in Yunyi's family, it is now the biggest news in Taoyuan Village.

Therefore, Yunyi, who was sitting on the ox cart, naturally became the focus of everyone's conversation.

"It seems that reading books is really useful."

"Before, Brother Yi'er's family was about to be so poor that they couldn't open the pot."

"It's only been a long time now, and the big brick houses are about to be built."

As soon as Yun Yi got into the ox cart, an older aunt began to babble sourly.

"Yes! I have said before that Brother Yi is a Wenqu star. ”

As soon as the aunt's words fell, an uncle next to her took over the conversation.

It's just that after he said this, his face couldn't help but turn red.

In the past, the people in the village did call Yun Yi the master of Wenquxing, but it was mostly ridiculous.

Now Yunyi relies on reading and has built a big brick house.

This made the people who had ridiculed him somewhat embarrassed.

For everyone's flattery, Yun Yi responded with a smile.

After all, these people used to target the second goods of the predecessor, and they didn't have much to do with him.

When the ox cart came to the gate of the city.

Yun Yi saw several ragged victims from a distance, carrying a person on their backs to negotiate with the guards at the city gate.

Seeing this, the uncle who was driving the car couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

"These victims are really pitiful."

"The problem of food and clothing has just been solved, and now it has begun to develop diseases in groups of three or five."

"I heard that several people have died outside the city in the past two days."

Hearing the uncle who drove the car say this, Yun Yi's heart couldn't help but tighten.

Aren't you afraid of something?

It's just that before Yunyi could ask, a young man in the car couldn't help but say:

"Isn't there a hospital in the city?"

"Why don't these people go to the infirmary for treatment?"

The young man's voice just fell.

didn't wait for the uncle who was driving the car to speak, and a middle-aged man next to him slapped him on the head.

"They are all poor people, and they have just been hit by a disaster, so where are they willing to go to the hospital for treatment."

When everyone in the car heard this, they didn't feel very good in their hearts.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the ox cart became a little dreary.

"Uncle, do you know what kind of symptoms those sick victims have?"

After pondering for a while, Yun Yi couldn't help but ask.

"What are the symptoms?"

"Tsk, I didn't ask about the specific symptoms."

"But I've heard that people who are sick have the same symptoms."

The old man who was driving the car tilted his head and thought for a while, but he didn't say any useful clues.

However, Yun Yi still heard bad signs from his words.

If all these people have the same symptoms, then nine times out of ten the disease is an epidemic.

If you don't isolate and treat it in time, I'm afraid the consequences will be unimaginable.

When passing by those people, Yun Yi looked at the haggard faces of the victims, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although he knew it might be an epidemic, he wasn't a doctor, so he couldn't help.

This matter can only be reported to the yamen when he goes to the yamen.

As for whether it can be controlled in time in the end, it is not up to him to be able to influence it by a small white body.

The ox cart entered the city gate, and Yunyi found that the city was still prosperous.

With the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, there are significantly more pedestrians on the streets than before.

When passing by a grain store, Yunyi found that although the price of grain was still not low, there was no longer a situation where the market was closed and not sold.

got off the ox cart at the intersection, Yun Yi took Zhao Laosan to inquire a little, and he understood what happened.

Since yesterday, there have been many grain merchants from other places who have come to Linjiang County one after another with grain.

After hearing the news, Yunyi's heavy mood recovered a lot.

Judging from the current situation, the price of food in the city should have reached its peak.

Once these grain merchants could not hold back, there was a price run.

Then the price of grain in Linjiang County will soon plummet.
