Chapter 91: Two or Three Things to Build a House
Leaving Wang's house, Sun Baoyao took Xu Ling to the brick kiln, and asked on the way how Xu Ling could borrow money from someone like Wang.
Xu Ling smiled bitterly: "The little brother has never been serious before, and he has no serious appearance in the world, if it wasn't for my father-in-law to wake me up, I'm afraid I'm still a scoundrel!" ”
Sun Baoyao smiled: "I can't see this at all!" ”
Just saying that Xu Ling's move of coming to him first today made Sun Baoyao look at him twice.
The two chatted along the way, and hurried to the brick kiln non-stop.
Speaking of brick kilns, Sun Baoyao really knows the people who burn bricks and tiles, and even the stones used to build houses can be found for Xu Ling.
If others want to, they can go to the foot of the mountain to pick stones and buy bricks and tiles at a much higher price.
But the city wall is being built in Erfang Town, and some of the people who can't escape the forced labor are sent to mine and transport stones, and even several families in the town who burn brick kilns are also busy.
If Xu Ling really wants to buy it, not to mention the price increase, he may have to queue up.
However, Sun Baoyao said in the middle, I don't know how many troubles Xu Lingsheng has.
Although Sun Baoyao is not yet the official registered yamen of the yamen, but his father used to be an errand in the yamen, he has no fame, when he was young, he learned a few tricks of kung fu with the practitioner family, and with the help of his father's connections, he mixed a position in the yamen.
The pawn is of great use, he grew up in Erfang Town, and the villagers are all acquaintances, and his behavior is not perverse, and his reputation in the market is not bad.
Xu Ling got along with him, and he also felt that this person was a capable person, so he really wanted to make friends.
The two confessed to each other, and their relationship warmed up quickly.
Sun Baoyao really seemed to be doing something for his own family, and helped Xu Ling order thousands of green bricks and tiles in the brick kiln, and at the end, the two turned around and returned to the town, and went to the restaurant to order a table of good wine and food to eat and drink.
Between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, Xu Ling said endless words of gratitude, one bite at a time, "Brother Sun", and did not forget to fall out of the sleeve A few silver barleys happened to fall into Sun Baoyao's hands.
Sun Baoyao was drunk, squinting his eyes and cheeks with two wine halos, and his smiling teeth were missing.
After eating, it was dark outside, Sun Baoyao persuaded Xu Ling to go to the Qinglou in the town together, Xu Ling was originally pretending to be drunk, and immediately began to get drunk when he heard it.
It's vomiting and making trouble, and he wants to go home, Sun Baoyao persuaded him: "It's dark now, and it's not safe for you to go back, it's better to find a beautiful girl with me to serve all night, and it's not too late to come back early tomorrow morning!" ”
When Xu Ling heard this, he picked up the wine jug with a blank face, "What about wine, why is there no wine!" Little Er, bring another pot of wine! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the wine jug in his hand slipped and shattered to the ground, his head tilted, and he fell asleep on the table.
This is very bad Sun Baoyao, and he thought that he could go to the Qinglou to be happy today with Xu Ling's fortune tree, who knew that Xu Ling was a wine Mengzi who couldn't drink!
No, Sun Baoyao couldn't leave Xu Ling in the restaurant, so he simply took him to his own home and threw him into the guest room for a night.
Xu Ling woke up when he threw him on the bed.
I heard a gentle voice persuade Sun Baoyao: "Why does Xianggong drink so much wine?" ”
Sun Baoyao clapped her hands impatiently, "What are you women concerned about men's affairs?" ”
The voice gradually faded away, and no one paid attention to Xu Ling, he wrapped the quilt tightly and smacked his lips, and fell asleep after a while.
Early in the morning of the second day, Xu Ling felt guilty and kept apologizing to Sun Baoyao, because he was really too bad for drinking.
Sun Baoyao was naturally not angry, but smiled: "Brother Xu, let's come to Japan for a long time, and we will drink together another day!" ”
Xu Ling made an excuse and said: "Alas, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one at home to do errands, and I couldn't do without me, I really wanted to drink and chat with Brother Sun every day." When the house in my house is built, I will definitely invite Brother Sun to my house for a small gathering! ”
"That's a good feeling, I want to prepare a big gift to celebrate your housewarming!"
Xu Ling said secretly, if Sun Baoyao didn't always want to drag him to the Qinglou, he wouldn't be so afraid!
……
Xu Ling took care of the bricks and tiles here, and the old man and his eldest brother also found wood for him.
In those days, there was no reinforced concrete, so wood could only be used as a structure, and the wood required for columns, beams, and trusses was also of different material.
Xu Ling didn't know anything about this, but fortunately, there was an old man next to him who acted as a supervisor.
All the timber he bought back had to pass through his hands, and he had the final say on whether there were insect eyes or not, whether it was strong or not.
Xu Ling's decision to build a new house also caused waves in the village.
It's only been more than two months, why is the eldest son of the Xu family like a different person, not to mention making money, his temperament has also changed.
In the past, Xu Ling's fox friends in the village came to him several times and asked him to go to the town to have fun, but they were all refused.
Xu Ling prodigal son turned back, and the people in the village talked about it.
Zhu Dan also came to Xu Ling, but he didn't say anything nonsense, but he said regretfully: "Brother Ling, you have become really powerful now." ”
Xu Ling didn't have any ill feelings towards this playmate who accompanied him to catch fish and sell money, and when he heard him lose like this, a sentence subconsciously flashed in his mind.
"There's already a pathetic barrier between us."
What kind of drama between Brother Xun and Runtu.
When building a house at home, Xu Ling only needs to say the requirements, how much space he wants to occupy, how many rooms he must have, what the layout is, and he doesn't need to do anything else.
The family recruited thirteen workers, two meals a day, and Xu Ling couldn't interfere in the cooking, so he paid for vegetables and fish.
So I had more idle time, holding the eldest girl and the children of the family, and leading the little brother of Pig Dan to go around the village.
When he came back, he bought a lot of maltose, and every time he went out, he would bring some with him, and when he saw the children, he would give them to them, and Li Dayuan's group of children also loved to play with Xu Ling's buttocks.
Knowing that Xu Ling's family needs bluestone slabs to build a house, one day he took Xu Ling to the river beach outside the village to find some stones that had been washed by the river.
Xu Ling is much happier in the village than outside, sleeping until three strokes in the sun every day before getting up, after eating, he goes to the construction site to take a look, and then takes away the noisy children at home, so as not to cause trouble to the women's army.
In winter, the villagers are idle and have nothing to do, and they come to see a few times like him, seeing that Xu Ling's house is slowly rising, and the villagers are also happy.
Some people heard that Xu Ling planned to pave the road with cobblestones, and sometimes when he saw a beautiful small stone on the road, he would pick it up and send it to Xu Ling's house.
Such a day is not good, but there are pros and cons, Xu Ling couldn't find the opportunity to work in the space for several days, so he could only calculate in his heart when the vegetables in the space would mature, and then go to Lingbao Town to sell vegetables.
However, before going to Lingbao Town, he wants to dig some lotus roots and send them home and send them to Lingbao Town, if he can sign a long-term agreement with the restaurant there, maybe Lianhuawanzi will have a better winter this year.
