Chapter 33: Stewardship

After breakfast, the lieutenant came to Wen's house and discussed with Wen Danian about recruitment.

"Old man Wen, how many workers are you going to recruit this time? There are a lot of idle people in our village now. The chief smiled and said, "I heard that the girl said that she wanted to find more people, so I didn't come to ask your opinion?" ”

Wen Danian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Xi'er is in charge of these things." ”

Sato was taken aback.

What is the situation of the Wen family, others don't know, but he knows.

Wen Kang has listened to his parents all his life, and Wen Danian has always had the final say in his family, after all, he has read some books before, so he naturally has the most right to speak.

It's just that I didn't expect that Wenxi had the final say on such a big matter now.

"Grandpa Li, as many people in our village can come to work, you can come, but you have to say it first, don't cheat and misbehave, as long as you are willing to work hard, the salary is only a lot more." Wen Xi said with a smile.

Li Chang couldn't help but glance at Wen Xi more, only to see the little girl in front of him, the calmness and calmness between her eyebrows and eyes, which he had never seen before.

It's hard to imagine that a girl in her early teens would have such courage and style.

"Grandpa Li, how do we calculate the wages for working here?"

"If you build a house, you will have 20 wen per person per day, and you don't have to take care of food, but if you are in charge of Chinese food, it will be 15 wen."

This salary is the same as Wenkang's.

Wen Xi thought for a moment and said, "As long as you can work diligently, each person will have twenty wen a day and one lunch." ”

"What?" The lieutenant hurriedly opened his mouth to stop: "In this case, you may have to spend a lot of more money until you finish building the house!" ”

"It doesn't matter, our family was poor before, and we got a lot of help from the villagers, and this time we can be regarded as repaying the favor, and only by eating well, can we have the strength to work!"

The lieutenant refreshed his understanding of Wenxi again, and this didn't sound like it came from the mouth of a female doll in her early tens.

If this is really what Wen Xi thinks for himself, he can only say that the Wen family has a good female doll!

He turned his gaze to Wen Danian again, only to see him nodding, and he also agreed with what Wen Xi said.

He thought very clearly, this silver was originally earned by Wenxi, and she could use it as she wanted.

Anyway, seeing that his granddaughter is a shrewd person, she won't be deceived.

After finalizing the work of the workers, the next step is to find the craftsmen in the town.

To build this house, she naturally wanted to use some modern design, even if there was no modern technology in ancient times, but some advanced design ingenuity could be realized.

Moreover, the things designed by ancient skilled craftsmen even far surpassed those of later generations.

It's just that in this town, the connections she can think of are Baicaotang and Fulaibuzhuang.

However, in terms of connections, it should be more of the king's shopkeeper.

After making up his mind, Wenxi began to draw drawings.

I have drawn all the ideas that I can think of and that can be realized here.

A few days later, Wenxi came to Baicaotang with the drawings.

When the shopkeeper saw her come in, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile on his face, "Miss Wen." ”

"Shopkeeper Wang, I haven't seen you for a few days, and your complexion is getting better."

"Thanks to your pills!" Speaking of pills, Shopkeeper Wang admired Wenxi from the bottom of his heart, and as a doctor, he naturally knew the value of this pill.

Even in the capital, it is rare to see it.

Even if there are famous people who can prepare such pills, they are all very famous doctors, and she has such an ability at a young age.

Regardless of whether Wenxi is the person the master has a crush on, he doesn't dare to underestimate it.

If the master really likes her, then he must be even more respectful.

"Miss Wen, what's the matter today?"

"Honestly, there is something to trouble you." Wenxi smiled and said, "My family is building a house, and I want to invite skilled people in this area, I don't know if you have any recommendations?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, there is! There are many such skilled craftsmen in his master's house, how can he miss this opportunity for his master to earn performance?

"Haha, if it's this, then it's on the old man!"

Anyway, the master said that he wanted to watch the Wen family and help with everything.

"Thank you very much."

After solving this matter, Wenxi felt more comfortable in his heart.

Thinking that it would take a lot of money to build a house, I took out the ginseng that I had prepared in advance.

When the shopkeeper saw her take out a box, his heart fluctuated slightly, this little ancestor must have brought something great and good.

When I opened it, I found that it was a ginseng, and the product was better than the last time, and I could already see the human shape, how the year was close to a hundred years, and I could smell the extremely strong medicinal fragrance when I got close.

If it is said that 50-year-old ginseng is hard to find, then 100-year-old ginseng is priceless.

Where was this ancestor found?

Can I take him with me next time?

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Wen Xi spoke: "Shopkeeper Wang, do you accept this ginseng?" ”

Shopkeeper Wang's thoughts were interrupted, and his consciousness gradually returned, and he hurriedly said to her: "Miss Wen, where did you find the ginseng these two times?" ”

"It's on the hill behind my house." Wenxi wasn't lying, after all, the first ginseng was indeed found there.

Can ginseng grow in such a barren place?

"Shopkeeper Wang, do you accept this ginseng?"

"Collect, collect!" Such a good quality of ginseng, even if you go to the capital, you can't find it, it is all something that has been passed down from generation to generation in a medical family, but I didn't expect this girl to take it out when she said it, and she sold it without hesitation.

"This ginseng, the old decay doesn't know what kind of price it should offer, after all, the value is too high, far from being comparable to fifty-year-old ginseng." He pondered for a while and said, "The old man can pay 5,000 taels, but if he takes it to the auction house, then he doesn't know how much money he can auction off." ”

Auction houses? It's a bit interesting, you can go around when you have the chance, and maybe there will be surprises!

"Okay, then five thousand taels! Fifty silver tickets of one hundred taels are required. "Wenxi doesn't grind, it's just a ginseng, and she has a lot of space.

Besides, five thousand taels is not a small amount.

The shopkeeper Wang immediately asked the man to go to the account room to get the money, and within a while, five thousand taels of silver tickets were placed in front of Wenxi.

She calmly picked up the silver ticket and stuffed it into her sleeve pocket.

I saw the king's shopkeeper's eyelids jumping.

Five thousand taels! It's not five taels, can this Wen girl give it basic respect?

Just stuffed it in my sleeve pocket, I didn't know and thought it was toilet paper.

In fact, Wenxi was put into the space.

After the matter was done, Wenxi got up to say goodbye, and the shopkeeper Wang sent it all the way to the door.

"Miss Wen, the craftsman will be here tomorrow, if you have any requirements, just tell him."

Wen Xi thought for a while, handed him his hand-drawn design drawing, and said, "Show him this and see if it can be realized." ”

The shopkeeper couldn't understand it for a long time, so he said, "Okay, don't worry! ”
