Chapter 160: Low-rent housing
Silkworm month, this time of the year is the sowing season, but this year's fertile field, the crops have grown three inches of seedlings, and it has been determined that there is definitely no spring cold.
In Dali Village, Steward Li is still fertilizing the newly opened wasteland, and the konjac planted this year is five times that of last year, and the noodle shop may be renamed the fan shop in the future.
The farmers of Dali Village and the two nearby villages, after doing the farm work in their fields, can either go to help Yuanfu fertilize and do short-term work, or go to Yuanfu to do carpentry work, anyway, there are many undemanding carpentry jobs waiting for everyone in Yuan's old lady.
Nearly a month in advance of spring ploughing, the farmers of the silkworm month have been idle, there is really nowhere to go, and before waiting for a few days, I heard that there is a construction site recruiting a large number of workers.
It is the barren land twenty miles away from the south gate of the capital, and there are not too many people who sign up.
"Hey, brothers, the construction site of Zhongqin Bo Zhang Luo has started again, and those of us who have done it well are the first wave to be chosen! If you want to go, hurry up and sign up!"
"How many people are going this time, let's go, do you want to finish? I have five brothers in my family, and my father can still move bricks."
"It's said that this wave is looking for people who dig foundations, and they have to strengthen their labors, and they need to invite 5,000 people, and we should be able to leave most of them behind!"
"Brother, take me one!"
"Brother, don't forget my brother, we've worked on the construction site in Dongcheng!"
Farming, you can still earn some wages near your home, and it's only a good thing in the past few years, especially last year, digging river mud and repairing the house in Dongcheng, at least these people have been working for more than four months.
In a few months, I earned a year's ration for the whole family, although the work was not easy, but the salary was paid once a month, and I could still eat a free full meal every day.
Needless to say, the appeal of the Zhongqinbo project was that within three days, 5,000 people could be easily assembled.
Heiwa called more than 50 foremen to do the start of the training:
"I guess everyone is no stranger to me, most of us are brothers who have eaten in a pot on the construction site in Dongcheng!
Since everyone is used to doing it, I won't say much about the rules or anything.
However, this time, the house we built may be for some of you to live in, so brothers, we can't pit our own people, we have to dig as deep as the foundation we should dig!
Everything is in accordance with the requirements, each engineering group should receive a task in the morning every day, before the work, the foremen do a good job of task inspection, not according to the requirements to come, or not completed, please consciously complete the quality and quantity!
If you fail to pass the acceptance three times, then the foreman and the team you brought, I have no choice but to ask you to leave together!
This is a house built by our Majesty Long En, who spent real money and silver for the common people.
In the future, the low-income people in the capital will have cheap houses to live in, and the rent will not be collected much, and the rent will be handed over to the imperial court, and no one will increase the rent halfway, and no one will ask you to move.
If you feel good about living in this house, and your family can afford to buy a house, you can buy it first.
Such a good thing, everyone said, do you want to do it well!"
"Yes! Want! Yes!"
"Long live my emperor! Banzai! Hooray!"
The foremen are excited, most of them are low-income people, and this good thing can only fall on their heads, which can only be doubly grateful.
I also asked again and again about the conditions for being eligible to live in this low-rent house, and I really wanted to go back and tell my father and mother immediately.
After the mobilization meeting, the project started immediately.
They must first dig deep into this barren land, bury stones, pave them with cement, and repair the houses faithfully and diligently, and always emphasize that the foundation is the most important thing, and they must be able to withstand the earthquake disaster.
Didn't you see the house in Dongcheng, what did it sell? This barren land is much bigger than the one in Dongcheng.
The construction site is full of people, so that pedestrians can see this scene and stop for a long time.
Farmers who are closer to this area can make a small fortune with them, on the construction site, every day
Most of the vegetables served for lunch, the big pot of rice, come from the surrounding villages.
Those who are more diligent can get dozens of dollars every day by sending out some bean sprouts, making some tofu, and taking them to the construction site, and they wish that the project would be repaired for a few years.
People who have chickens and ducks are not worried about selling, from time to time, they always need to buy a few, there are meat and fishy more hungry, they are full and well-fed, and the project will be done faster.
Hu Yiniu and Hu Erniu are very busy, so many people are working at the same time, and reasonable arrangements need to be made. They are mainly responsible for the distribution of daily tasks, docking with the big foreman, and checking the completion of tasks every day, and roaring so loudly that their voices are hoarse.
As soon as the project started, they all packed up the cover roll and took the project as their home.
The lunch on the first day was stewed konjac vermicelli with cabbage and tofu, and there were some fatty slices of pork in it, and the staple food was black steamed buns.
After finishing a morning's work, each of them served a big bowl of vegetables, holding two big steamed buns in their hands, and couldn't lift their heads until a big steamed bun was in their stomachs and relieved some hunger, and then they had the heart to say a few words.
"Did you hear what Boss Hu said? This time, the house we built can be specially built for the poor, what is it called low-rent housing!"
"Why haven't you heard of it? He also said that the house should be divided according to the number of people, and if there are many people, the house will be divided into a large one, and the rent will be given to the government, and the rent will be very cheap."
"Don't be too happy, you have to be a low-income person with household registration in the capital! It's my family's way of doing it!"
"Humph! Who is not registered in Beijing? How many families are poorer than our family? I'm so fucking poor that I'm almost eating Guanyin soil!"
"Don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss! Let's repair our own house? This time, you have to cultivate more diligently!"
"Not to mention, let's go straight north from this piece to the capital, this big cement road, it will only take half an hour to take a mule cart!"
"If we can have a good house to live in here, let us move, we are happy!"
"Hey, you kid, a fool is not happy, this is a house built with cement and blue bricks, and the ground can be moved, who would not be happy to live!"
"This is really good, the last three generations of our ancestors are all from the capital, if you can live in this cement house, my milk is dizzy!"
Most of the people who come to work here have worked in the east of the city from the capital, and they are familiar with the way, and when they hear about it, this house may be for them to live in in the future.
I can't wait to stay on the construction site for twelve hours, work hard, and dig the foundation without feeling tired.
After getting off the construction site, they rushed back to the city one by one, wanting to bring this great news to their families.
That night, when I heard the news of the low-rent housing that my children and grandchildren came home from the construction site outside the capital, they were all very happy about these old people in Beijing who had never had a house in their lives and went around playing guerrilla rental houses.
They are reluctant to leave the capital, but they have no place to go. They have no land in the countryside, and they don't have half a piece of tiles, so they can live in a new house, or a new house that is so well built, what can they say?
The older generation, quickly told the children in the family, let them work hard, and even asked if they need to rest on the construction site, the family can help them prepare to cover the rolls, the time on the construction site is long, the work can be done more, and the house is better to be completed as soon as possible.
The low-rent housing repaired this time, cost control has become Heiwa's top priority, and we have done it directly ourselves.
I chose a remote place on this construction site, and directly built five brick kilns and five tile kilns, and burned bricks and tiles for my own use. The cost price of the cement burned in the cement mill in the capital is given, and only the timber beams are bought at a cost.
If you want to build the most houses in a limited land, you can't ask for a view, and there are no courtyards.
According to the design of Heiwa, it is a bit similar to a modern military camp, and the picture is a neat and orderly.
Rows of blue brick houses, with three or four rooms in one household, are separated from neighbors by walls on the left and right.
In front of the house between the leftmost and the right, the stove house is built on the left, the thatched house and pigsty are built on the right, and the opposite door is the opposite, or the thatched house is separated from the neighbor by a wall.
Or the kitchen next door to the neighbor.
Each row of five households, sitting north and facing south, and the front and back of the row houses are separated by a five-meter-wide cement road, neatly arranged, you can imagine, this has to be built all out, but how spectacular.
The cement official road divides this barren land into two, which can be divided into the east and west districts, except that there is no so-called design beauty, compared to the courtyards where the poor people live at the bottom, it can be called a paradise.
According to Heiwa's plan, the foundation work will take two to three months, to say the least, and the excavated saline-alkali soil will be transported to a nearby swamp, where Heiwa intends to use it to grow sorghum.
A steady stream of manure was pulled from the public toilets in the capital and a thick layer of base fertilizer was piled on these saline-alkali soils. The fluffy soil dug deep was regularized into a bunch of cultivated land, and a pit of about a foot was buried in sorghum seeds.
This is already the best solution he can think of, sorghum is also grain, and the pole can also be used to make sucrose. If these saline-alkali soils can be successfully planted, they can also be rented by these people who live in low-rent houses.
Xia Hongdi read Heiwa's planning book, and had to sigh: "It is worthy of growing up in a peasant family, loyal and diligent uncle, who has feelings for the land, and can always play with mud!"
"Father, is this the essential difference between him and the officials from the imperial examination?"
"You can't say that, you have to have the heart and the ability to do it, we are all civil and military, and there are many people from peasant families, so why can't others do this?"
"Well, I'm probably reading sage books, so I don't have time to play with mud!"
"I see you're itchy, you stinky boys, what do I want me to say about you for those things you've done lately!"
"Father, we just set up some assessments for them, didn't you let the show girls cook back then, we can't continue to cook this year, we have to have some new ideas!"
"Hmph, I'll see what kind of flower you can choose!"
The prince smiled, he felt that he could learn from Yuan Wenwu, and sometimes it was better to play tricks on his own father.
The show girls of 500 people, in less than half a month, have already been sent out of the palace, including Mr. Fan's Luoshu.
On the first day, she was scared to cry by the non-venomous little snake, and she was not as bold as her sister, but Leyu directly used a small stick to drive the little snake that mixed into their nest out of the room.
Luo Shu was so frightened that she didn't dare to sleep all night, and the next day she saw her grandmother clamoring to leave the palace, and she had a shadow on the palace.
There are more than 50 people who have the same idea as her, and the palace is very happy to let them go, and now they are still eating in Zhongqinbo's mansion.
"Aunt Xia, you don't know how barren the Chuxiu Palace in this palace is, and more than a dozen snakes entered the house overnight, but it scared us miserably, what I'm most afraid of is snakes!"
Aunt Xia was speechless, where did there be so many snakes in the palace, but this test was too strange, not like the style in the palace, a bit like a prank.
Yuan Wenjie and Yuan Wenwu, the two bad guys who helped the abuse, actually went home on vacation and didn't reveal half a point, so that their mothers couldn't eat melons on the spot.
