Chapter 41: The Craftsman

On the second day, Boss Wu brought the craftsman to the security hall, and Xiao Xiaoqing came forward to greet him. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Because of yesterday's incident, Boss Wu looked at Xiao Xiaoqing more and more pleasing to the eye, there was no bad place up and down the body, and waited patiently for the Chinese to finish the mortgage to build a house, and before receiving half of Xiao Xiaoqing's salary, he couldn't help but pull out a young offspring from the crowd behind him, and asked Xiao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing lady, this is my nephew Mingtang, what do you think of the discussion yesterday?"

The later life was dressed as a scholar, never wore a crown, only wrapped his head in a black scarf, looked sixteen or seventeen years old, originally reluctantly, after seeing Xiao Xiaoqing's appearance, he couldn't take his eyes off it for a while. was pulled forward by Boss Wu, and when he saw Xiao Xiaoqing glancing over, he straightened the clothes on his body and said, "Xiaosheng Qi Mingtang, I have seen Xiaoqing girl." ”

"Hello. Xiao Xiaoqing responded, looked away, and then said to Wu Laodao just now, "My three rooms, the style and materials are different from the usual, I have drawn drawings here, you build according to the drawings, if you don't understand something, you must remember to ask me first." ”

As she spoke, she spread out the rice paper she had prepared on the table, on which the structure of the three houses was drawn in a three-dimensional composition, and the notes were densely written next to it. Boss Wu was stunned as soon as he glanced at it.

"This ......" he could barely read the structure of the house, and the note next to it didn't know what it was, and it was rare that he still knew the dimensions of one, two, three, and so on, "What is this?"

"Dig three feet into the ground, cover with lime, take the Sanhe soil as the base, and the four corners of the pillars ......" Qi Mingtang came to the front and pointed to explain to Wu Boss word by word, "Lime, river sand, and clay are mixed together, which is to lay a solid foundation for the Sanhe soil, and the three occupy the ......"

When he read this, he was taken aback, and looked at Xiao Xiaoqing in surprise: "This is a secret that craftsmen do not pass on. ”

"If you build up your house, it will be okay for you to give you this secret. Xiao Xiaoqing said, "Since you are literate, then it is better, according to the above, after the foundation is rammed, a layer of triple soil and a layer of bricks, leaving enough windows in the middle, I want to install glass." ”

"But this window ...... Three feet wide and five feet high? Why is it so big, the glass is crisp and valuable, how can it bear heavy loads?"

"Take pear wood as a frame, add iron hinges, and inlay it. Xiao Xiaoqing didn't explain that he used glass in his previous life, with Bai Suzhen and Cen Qing's spells, firing glass is only a matter of minutes, and the important thing is just the principle.

Spells are supposed to make life better. If it weren't for the lack of time, she even wanted to copy the buildings in her previous life, which was rare and expensive, and at this time she was used to seeing ancient houses, and it was not bad to occasionally get a reinforced concrete building.

"Isn't it worth a lot of money for these three rooms?" Qi Mingtang secretly figured out the cost of materials and was taken aback. The three-to-five-foot square glass window, even if it is made of pear wood lattice, but it looks like it is more than a foot from the picture, so the royal family can afford to use such a large glaze, right?

Although he is a scholar, but after all, he was born in a craftsman's door, and he dared to use 10,000 yuan to build three pharmacies, saying that it was to make money, who would believe it?

He already regarded Xiao Xiaoqing as a mysterious nobleman in his heart, but Xiao Xiaoqing did not have this awareness. Glaze only, there were mature glaze workshops in the Sui and Tang dynasties. It's just that she fills glass with glass, but she hasn't thought about a big problem. At this time, the glass made was no more than the size of a palm, and the few feet square was never glass in this era, but ice.

Qi Mingtang asked a few more questions about what he didn't understand on the drawings, as if he had opened a portal in front of him, how could a house be built like this?

In fact, Xiaoxiaoqing's drawings are just modern antique buildings, but after more than a thousand years of progress, all kinds of wonderful load-bearing and structure have already developed to the extreme, and what appears in front of Qi Mingtang's eyes at this moment is the fruit of the brick-concrete structure.

"It's worth a hundred gold. He said.

Boss Wu was taken aback.

He thought that Xiao Xiaoqing was just a literate and hyphenated woman, but he didn't expect that the other party would take out something casually and be so valuable in his nephew's mouth. The ink on the paper had not yet dried, and it was evident that it had been drawn by the woman in front of her not long ago.

"I've given it to you. Xiao Xiaoqing said, "I just need a house." ”

"Be sure to cover it according to the top. Qi Mingtang rushed to the front and said, although he was only sixteen or seventeen years old and literate, but after all, he had been exposed to it, he originally thought that the skills of the craftsman had been exhausted to this day, but he didn't expect that today's mouth was suddenly opened, no matter what, he had to see with his own eyes how this house was built, "Uncle Wu, these craftsmen you bring are not good, I need my father to find a skilled person to come in person." ”

"This ......" Boss Wu was embarrassed, although he didn't know much about the value of this drawing, but after all, he had a contract with Xiao Xiaoqing, and this Wu Mingtang's father was also the object he needed to rely on.

"We will pay you back the original amount of thirty times, and then compensate you for twenty times. Qi Mingtang said, "It's just that this guy needs my Qi family to pick him up." ”

Xiao Xiaoqing chuckled: "I only need a house, I don't care who will build it." ”

Qi Mingtang pulled Boss Wu aside and discussed for a while, and finally Boss Wu agreed to come down and let the Qi family take over.

After all, he was only for wages, and Qi Mingtang saw the value of the drawings. Both sides take what they need, and they are all happy.

"Lime is an insecticidal herb, can it really be used as a foundation and a powder wall?" In the end, Qi Mingtang put away the drawings preciously, but he couldn't help but ask Cen Qing.

"Not bad. ”

"If your medicine shop is built, it can be called 'White Snow Hall'. ”

"No, it's still a security guard. Xiao Xiaoqing crossed her arms and smiled, "What I want is feelings." ”

......

A day later, the original security hall was torn down, and the new foundation was built in the hands of new craftsmen, the snow-white and clear lime pond surprised the craftsmen, Qi Mingtang stared at the steps of the soil, Xiao Xiaoqing occasionally pointed out on the side, he took out the pen and paper he carried with him and wrote it down attentively, like a studious student.

On the third day, the craftsman, who was building the house, was beaten suddenly and unexpectedly.

The people who originally coveted this house couldn't help but do it again. (To be continued.) )
