Poor family mother and son

Chapter 40 Baolu Group
secret investigation division.

Bai Zhantang, the governor of Nanzhen, was looking at the secret presentation of Bai Hua sent by his subordinates.There is still a letter from Bai Hua's family that has not been opened.It has always been Bai Zhantang's work attitude to put public affairs first and then private affairs.

Knowing that Hong Liang was successfully rescued, Bai Zhantang was relieved.Read the book again.Looking at it, he started the secret report again, compared the two, and understood why his son strongly recommended a woman to join the secret investigation department.It seems that the son wants to recruit talents, but due to the gender of the other party, he went to Lao Tzu to open the back door.

Although from the bottom of my heart, I don't think it's useful for my son to open the back door here, but since my son has begged here, I have to do something for him.

Bai Zhantang carefully read the secret report again, and found that this Yuan family actually played a decisive role in the whole rescue, this is really a talent.He called his subordinates: "Come here, check this person." Bai Zhantang clicked on the name on the secret paper.

At the court meeting, the ministers discussed in full swing.

From the joint memorial of Song Tingshan, the prefect of Jizhou, and Hong Liang, the general soldier of Jizhou, the officials learned that there were iron mines on the border of Jizhou.Today's meeting, the main topic is the iron mine.

Master Liu, Minister of the Household Department, spoke first: "Your Majesty, if this iron mine really exists, it can solve the problem of replacing the army's weapons."

Minister of the Ministry of War was the most excited: "It's rare that Mr. Liu is not stingy. In the past few years of fighting, our weapons have been severely damaged, which is really disadvantageous."

Emperor Qingde was the happiest person. If the iron mine is small, it can at least solve part of the urgent needs. What if it is a large mine?
"Zheng Aiqing, do you have a candidate who is good at exploration?" The emperor asked the Minister of Industry.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Li Jin, a doctor of the Yu Department, and Zhao Guangyi, a foreigner, both have extremely high attainments in mining and metallurgy."

"Let your ministry send officials to Jizhou immediately, and make a detailed investigation."

"According to the order!"

Chu Qing knew nothing about the things outside the wasteland.She is now giving lectures to this "migrant worker team".After explaining the task, Chu Qing emphasized: Our workshop is called "Baolu Group".

This is named after Xiaobao, although Xiaobao is not yet famous.Just call it that.Standing next to Chu Qing, Xiao Bao's stomach was full, and the pocket full of snacks was even more prominent.

……

The village is very lively these days.Since seeing Chu Qing bring a group of people in rags to camp in the wasteland by the village a few days ago, gossip about Chu Qing has been spread more and more.

Some said that they often saw Chu Qing and Zhang Mingyu going in and out at the same time, the widow must have taken a fancy to him; Buying a field is passing the day, and I spend every day in the wasteland with a group of messy men, and I don't look like a serious person at first glance...

It's not that Chu Qing doesn't know, it's that there's nothing she can do about it.I had no choice but to comfort myself with the "mantra" I taught Xiaobao - don't listen or listen, chant sutras like crazy, ignore it, scold yourself.Don't think that it's only women who gossip, the men's arrangement is no less than women's.The only thing that can reflect "equality between men and women" in this era is gossip and gossip.What can I do? The villagers' spare time life is too monotonous, and the migrant population is always overly concerned.

This kind of gossip is suspended today.The reason was that Village Chief Wu beat the gong to call the villagers together and said something: Mrs. Yuan wanted to hire someone to build a house.Those who build a house pay 20 Wen per day, and take care of two meals at lunch and dinner; those who cook, cook two meals a day, 15 Wen, and the construction period is 10 days.Caught cheating and cheating and dismissed.Willing to sign up.

When Chu Qing’s job recruitment information was announced by village chief Wu, the contribution that Chu Qing, a “widow” from outside, made to the villagers filled the sky of the village:
"Village chief, I'm signing up! I can do everything in masonry and carpentry! Mrs. Yuan is a good person! We all need to help her if she has something to do!"

"Village chief, I sign up, I can cook quickly, and I promise not to delay the meal! Madam Yuan has done so much for our village, we can't ignore this little favor!"

"That's that! Don't talk about Mrs. Yuan, just talk about Xiaobao, that's a good boy! Village chief, I have great strength, smashing, moving bricks, erecting pillars, and erecting beams, I can do everything!"

"Not to mention anything else, our family's Zhuzi can eat enough, and the cows and horses, don't we have to command them? We didn't even dare to think about it before! I will sign up too!"

……

Look, with the effort of a meal, a construction team was established.Regardless of the number of people, the construction period is only ten days. As long as there are no cheating and cheating, there is no problem if there are more people or fewer.Village head Wu is a serious and responsible person, like San Pang's family, there is no recruiting at all.In fact, the work of San Pang's family is quite neat, but Village Chief Wu doesn't want this kind of person to be annoying in front of Chu Qing.

In fact, Village Chief Wu had other plans in mind.He studied the purchase list that Chu Qing gave Wu Dalang.It is clear that the 20 people I hired are not enough.Then people can come out of our village.The fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields.

This time to build a house for Chu Qing, if Chu Qing is satisfied, he will recruit someone next time, so he can talk to her.But right now I can't tell people directly, because it will be the busy farming season in ten days or so, and I can't recruit people.After the busy farming season, the whole village will have free time. Then we will discuss this issue with Chu Qing. You pay for it, and we contribute. Hello, everyone.

start work.According to Chu Qing's drawings, the house has a large area.There are five rooms in a row, the room on the far side is the largest, and one room is two larger.On the left hand side next to the official road is the sundry room, and then to the right are: kitchen, bedroom, and study room, and the largest one on the far right is designated by Chu Qing as the "reception hall".The bedroom is a suite.

The outer courtyard wall is not surrounded by fences like the villagers, but a solid brick wall.Two and a half meters high.

The big guys can see clearly from the drawings, because Chu Qing draws clearly.But I don't understand why the house is built like this, and no one builds it like this.But dare not say, also dare not ask.

Chu Qing still kept a sufficient distance from them.In addition to exchanging the overall layout with the captain of the construction team, he turned around and went to Baijia and the others.

Chu Qing still rejects this world in her heart.She wants to go back to her own world.She hoped that all this was a dream, and that she could return to her home and see her son when she woke up.So she used names such as "group" and "reception hall" as a joke to express her inner resistance.She didn't even allow Baijia to call themselves "Dongjia", but "Chu Dong".Baijia and the others felt uncomfortable with this title, biting their tongues when they opened their mouths, so they had no choice but to call "Boss Chu", and Chu Qing agreed.

I want me to be me.

The wind, the wind, the fire, the bustle and the noise are vigorous and vigorous, and it is time to mount the beam.Once the beam-raising ceremony is held, the project will be completed.

In the past ten days, everyone worked together, and there was no delay in time or work, stealing or cheating.There was no gossip.As long as you come to work, you will be paid daily.Even if he temporarily helped to deliver something to the children, Chu Qing would ask Xiaobao to give him a penny or two.

Chu Qing imitated Xiao Bao's appearance and came to inspect it every day with a blank face.Let everyone want to go forward to curry favor or get close to dare not dare.

The beam-raising ceremony was very lively under the operation of Village Chief Wu.After Chu Qing settled the wages for everyone, he alone gave Wu Dalang 10 taels of silver to organize a meal, inviting the villagers to dinner, and he and Xiaobao did not participate.Just say thank you.Don't talk about anything else.
