Chapter 41: Expand "Luban Gate" and stop being a "hooligan"

In the last episode, I talked about urging the carpenter to go to the government to borrow money, and because the money was not enough to borrow, he cast a spell to summon the Yin Division judge to collect information, and he got his wish.

"Haha, this information is enough!" At this time, the carpenter did not take the other party's money enough to borrow in mind, but just smiled and said: "I am afraid that the landlords around my house are not willing to sell the land to me, and I hope that my brother can write an official proclamation and secretly notify the state and county." ”

"Uh...... Virtuous brother, please rest assured, the foolish brother will not embarrass the virtuous brother, so he will arrange for his subordinates to do it. The political envoy hurriedly glanced at the subordinate official, and then asked the bookkeeper to leave with him, and then asked, "Isn't the virtuous brother going to see the three virtuous nephews?" They've been very well-behaved lately! ”

"Haha, no need." Cui Carpenter sneered: "Knowing the daughter Mo Ruo's father, with my brother's father-in-law to help take care of it, there will be no mistakes." The younger brother took his leave. As soon as the words fell, the carpenter cast the earth escape spell and turned into a yellow mango to drill the ground, and used his divine sense to contact the three girls.

"Daddy, can't you stop by and see our sisters? We're a little homesick. The third girl was practicing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and suddenly felt a feeling in her heart at the same time, so she couldn't help but use her divine sense to transmit the voice and ask, "What about my mother and sisters?" Is our 'fairy adult' the youngest thirteenth sister? ”

"Haha, stinky girl, you've only been away from home for a few days, and you're homesick?" Cui Carpenter smiled: "Your thirteenth sister is Lao Tzu's 'little baby'!" ”

"Giggles, Daddy, you're funny. Ignore you. "————" Go and go, learn the etiquette of the court, and come to see you when I have time." ”

As soon as the words fell, the carpenter used all his strength to cast the "Earth Escape" spell, although he could not travel thousands of miles in a day, but it was only half an hour to rush back to his home more than a hundred miles away. However, during this period, the most shocking people were the three political envoys, because they still underestimated the strength of the carpenter.

After greeting his sisters and granddaughters, the carpenter excused himself with the excuse that he had to leave the house for two days before he could return.

In fact, the carpenter had to find a place to start one by one because he had more than a dozen lists in his hands that he needed to digest. However, since he didn't have a storage magic weapon, he had to go to the "Snake Demon Cave" in the "West Wind Rock" first to see if the elders of the "Five Poison Sect" were waiting for orders?

After urging the carpenter to turn into a retreat from the sky and find nothing in the "West Wind Rock", he turned around and flew straight to the "Silver Cave" of "Dengyun Mountain", and went to find the "little baby" to ask for a large storage weapon.

Of the 14 targets, three are on Quang Nam West Road, four are on Quang Nam East Road, five are in Huguang Province, and two are in Guizhou Province. Therefore, the carpenter decided to use the "Seventy-two Techniques of the Left Path of the Side Gate" to use the spells such as "invisibility", "sprouting head", and "copying", which were tried and tested.

In less than a day, the carpenter secretly robbed all the targets, and the gold and silver treasures and all kinds of antiques and jade could be piled up in the living room, and if it was converted into silver, it would have to be at least a million taels, after all, those corrupt officials and squire bullies were not vegetarians!

However, this money cannot be exposed, after all, it is difficult to guarantee that the other party will also invite some capable people to follow the map, at least through other means to try to solve the case, if it is really not possible, go to the official, I believe that even if the special services of the East and West Second Factories can't handle it, the court will not care.

Therefore, the carpenter had to hide in the underground cave of "Zephyr Rock", first classify the stolen treasures, and then put them back into the storage bag, and finally sneak home, first take out a small part of the money to buy the title deed from the surrounding landlords, and set up a note after the government can be recorded.

After this wave of operations, the carpenter easily obtained the ownership of all the land within a radius of ten miles from his own house, of course, including some barren mountains and rivers and tidal flats that were not on the title deed, and the total cost of silver taels was only more than 1,000 taels, after all, the fertile land was only 500 acres.

Of the 500 acres of arable land, only about 200 acres of irrigated land can be used to grow rations to feed more than 100 people, but the rest is all dry land, and there is still some value in planting some buds, artichokes, sugarcane, and tobacco imported from abroad.

After all, it can be sold for money by making furniture from a variety of cedar trees, bamboo, camphor wood, etc., but it takes a long time to generate economic value. The carpenter thought to himself, as long as he didn't abandon the wasteland, even if it was a hundred years of return to his capital, it would be worth it.

Next, the carpenter continued to ask his sisters to go home and call his brother-in-law and nephews together, plus his own helpers and apprentices, there were more than 100 people who could work, but while the winter was dry, he began to expand a large circle of courtyards in the outermost part of the original yard, and planned to build a thousand rooms.

The 1,000-room building is planned to be built according to the Hakka tulou model in Yongding, Fujian, with a three-storey ring shape to save land. Originally built for defensive purposes, the tulou surrounds a central open courtyard with only one entrance and a window to the outside above the first floor.

As a collective building built with earthen walls, the tulou actually became a village, and was often referred to as a "small family kingdom" or "a prosperous small city" in the old society. Therefore, the exterior walls of the tulou must be tall and solid, and the roof must be covered with tiles to form a wide eaves to prevent disasters and theft.

In fact, the reason why the carpenter wants to expand the "Luban Gate" into the form of "Fujian Tulou" is also to consider that it is impossible for him to stay here for a long time as the "door master" in the future, after all, the old carpenter is a "matriarchal clan" formed by the overlapping of "secular" and "Xiuzhen", and carpentry work is only the appearance.

Tulou is the foundation of this family after that. And the men here, if they don't have the qualifications of spiritual roots, will stay here for the rest of their lives as carpenters to support their families, playing the role of "martial arts masters". As for the few "Qi Refiners" who happen to have opened up the "Second Vein of Ren Du", they will be refined into "ghoul clones".

However, in order to complete the project before the spring rain arrived, the carpenter invested a lot of money to continue to reward labor to ten miles and eight villages and even outsiders, not only to have enough food for three meals a day, but also to ensure that there was meat at the meal, and the wages were paid, so the number of people increased dramatically and the construction period was shortened.

In this way, including the purchase of bricks, lime, wood, bamboo poles, hemp rope, copper nails and other building materials, it took more than 13,900 taels of silver to get it done. Fortunately, everyone finally rushed to live in the new tulou that was expanded and renovated before the rainy season arrived.

This month is not a long time, nor is it short, but it let the people of thousands of families in the surrounding ten miles and eight villages know the strong financial resources of the old urging family, and the fact that there are high-ranking officials and nobles behind him to help. This made the three of them stunned by the political envoys of Guangnan West Road, who knew the inside story.

As for the continuous rumors of corrupt officials and squire bullies suffering retribution and destitute within a radius of thousands of miles, it did not attract many people's attention, after all, the poor people wished that those who were rich and unkind would die as soon as possible, so that they could divide up their remaining property, and everyone had a share!

That's it, when the spring flowers are in full bloom, and they show their strength. And the carpenter, as the "master" of the "Luban Gate", naturally spares no effort to hype, what three meals a day are enough, the food tube is enough, the learning is fast and the work is good, and it can be recruited to come to the door to teach martial arts and "Luban secret arts"......

Such a powerful advertising campaign soon spread throughout the entire Guangnan West Road again, and immediately attracted a large number of green forest heroes and even "hooligans" to enlist in the army.

In ancient times, because of low productivity, peasants often lost their original land and houses when natural and man-made disasters occurred, but they had to leave their homes in order to make a living, and they were often displaced. Therefore, those who have lost their land or have no land are displaced people, referred to as "streams". Obviously, he was displaced and naturally had no house.

In the same way, those who do not own a house or lose a property are called "hooligans", or "hooligans" for short. Therefore, any man who has lost his land and has no property is a scoundrel!

So, when going on a blind date in ancient times, the woman's parents would also ask the man if he had a house or how many acres of fertile land he had? If the man says no, the woman will inevitably look unhappy after hearing it, so she will complain: "No house, no land, just come on a blind date?" You're such a scoundrel! Bummer! Get lost! ”

At this time, the carpenter lived in a brand-new large earthen building, and finally had a feeling: "Those who own all the real estate in the world are called 'Your Majesty'; Those who have one or two apartments are called 'Your Excellency', and those who have no fixed place and wander around can be called 'Foot';

For wealthy people who have a lot of real estate, their eldest wife is called 'long house' or 'big wife', the second wife is called 'second wife', the third wife is 'third room' or 'third aunt', and the last wife is called 'multi-room' or 'little aunt'...... However, the landless are 'streams', and the homeless are 'hooligans'! ”

Therefore, those who have neither houses nor land are 'hooligans'! It has been known since ancient times, and it is not strange to see it, as long as you have the ability to make a lot of money, you can say goodbye to hooligans!

Of course, the carpenter is not a "hooligan" now, because his ideal is to cultivate the truth and attain the Tao and live forever. Therefore, "thousands of red dust" is not rare!

However, after the land of the people of the world was snatched by skill, there were many people who had no food and clothing. Therefore, it is against the law of heaven that good citizens are forced to become "hooligans"!
