Chapter 144 Discovery of Cement
On the second day, the Su family hired a Feng Shui master to build a new house.

Regarding the fact that the Su family sold their daughter to Xie Mingzhu, the parents of the Su family were not ashamed, but rather proud.

They even said to everyone that they shouldn't have drowned their daughters in the urine bucket.

A drop of dew raises a seedling of grass. If those girls hadn't been drowned in the past, how good they would sell their girls now!

The Su family repairs the house and hires people to do the work every day.

Except for professional craftsmen such as carpenters and stonemasons, other small workers are Yang people.

People in the central government generally don’t need to pay wages, they just provide three meals a day, and in the future, if other people’s family has someone, Su’s father will also have to change jobs.

Usually there are many Su family members, so there are many family affairs. Now that they have invited someone, this is three meals a day, which is enough for Su's mother to work.

In just one day, Mother Su felt that her waist was going to break!

But seeing that the foundation of this house has not yet been built, I feel a lot of chills in an instant.

But what can she do?
In order to save money, everyone in the family is helping to build a house.

It is even more tiring for them to pick soil or something.

At this time, Su's mother missed the time when Su Caicai was around. If she was around, she wouldn't have to worry about the three meals a day.

Also, before Su Caicai cooked, they ate up all the food on the table early.

In this way, Su's mother still felt that Su Caicai must have eaten it while cooking. If Su Caicai ate a little more, she would have to curse for a long time.

But now, like this lunch at noon, she just put the dishes on the table, and before she even had time to move her chopsticks, she was caught completely by the chopsticks stretched out from all directions.

Not only did she miss food, she didn't even eat a bite of rice.

She just complained a little in front of Su's father.

Su's father was very surprised and said, I thought you ate in the kitchen?

It's not what you said, how can there be a cook who doesn't steal food?
Su's mother didn't expect that if she scolded Su Caicai, she would be scolded by Su's father exactly.

Mother Su had no choice but to hold back her anger and had nowhere to go.

On the second day after starting the house, Su's mother also behaved well, and she was full when she was cooking.

But objectively speaking, the Su family is not a rich family, and there is little food. Su's mother ate too much meat, and the other workers and the men working in the Su family did not eat meat.

After this day, those who came to work all found reasons not to come.

The work here is all manual work, and they don't get paid. If they can't even eat well, who will come?
No one came for three days in a row, and only a few members of the Su family were really exhausted.

The younger ones in the Su family couldn't stand such a scorching sun and such heavy work.

Mother Su didn't care too much, she was so tired every day, she definitely needed to eat.

In addition, Su's father realized that something was wrong, and when he ran to ask, he found out that he disliked their family's poor food, so he stopped coming, which made Su's father lose his temper with Su's mother.

The day when the eldest son gets married is approaching, but the Su family is in trouble every day.

I thought it was because besides the dowry, I still had some money in my hand, but Su's mother didn't know how to plan or save money.

When you had no money, didn't you quarrel much?

With ten taels of silver, are you still quarreling every day?

Cui Yanyan just let out a chuckle when she heard the flamboyance on the Su family's side.

Cui Yu told her not to dwell on the past, but to look forward.

Cui Yanyan studied hard every day, so that in the first assessment of the big class, Cui Yanyan was actually the first in the class.

Yu Qiushi sent a reward to Cui Yanyan.

The reward is cloth.

The main reason is that Cui Yanyan has no clothes.

After Cui Yanyan took the fabric, she asked Zhang Ying to learn how to make clothes for herself.

Zhang Ying didn't hide his secrets either, so he should teach everything.

Xie Mingzhu also saw the harvest in the division of teaching at Pearl Academy, and she was very happy.

"Qin Che, let's go into the mountain."

"Row."

Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che took advantage of the morning to go to the mountain.

The two mainly wanted to see how to build an academy.

The back mountain is quite big, and it is also suitable for building an academy.

It's just that there is a problem right now, the planning drawings of Xiu Academy have not yet come out.

Xie Mingzhu wanted to buy a set of blueprints directly in the mall of Xueqiangguo, but buying blueprints required on-site testing or something, and Xie Mingzhu actually didn't know anything about it.

It’s fine if it’s flat, just buy a pair of blueprints and repair it directly.

But now this is on a hillside. If you are not careful, it may cause a landslide, and the previous efforts will be in vain.

Xie Mingzhu spoke out the plan deep in her heart.

"Qin Che, you said that we are building a commercial street outside Pearl Academy, and we can open some kind of snack bar at that time."

"We will definitely invite a teacher when the time comes. I am a little confused about the residence of the teacher. Should I go directly to the academy? Or separate it? The academy is the academy, and the living area is the living area. Of course, I personally prefer Are the study area, living area, and business area separate?"

Qin Che thought for a while and said, "Personally, I think it might be better to separate them. This way, there is not only a functional distinction, but also a proper movement and stillness."

"Yes, that's what I thought. But, Qin Che, this is a mountainous area. If it is not well repaired and the foundation is unstable, especially if it rains heavily, there may be dangers of landslides or flash floods. Let's repair it. In the Academy, I personally think that it is best to put safety first."

"Not only that, but there is another problem. When there are more people, water use must become the top priority."

"At present, the water flow of the creek is still good, but I am not sure if our academy has 1 people, will this water be enough?"

The domestic water for 1 people, this amount, I wonder if this stream can supply it at present?

"We can actually dig wells?" Qin Che said.

Xie Mingzhu frowned, "If you dig a well, you must have a water source."

"Mingzhu, we can take this matter slowly."

"Some things really can't be rushed, so we can only take our time."

Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che found that even in such a hot place, some woods are still very humid. It can be seen that if a well is drilled, water can come out.

"Qin Che, wait a minute."

As she walked, Xie Mingzhu found that a section of the hillside had slipped, and she found an ore with a color different from the soil.

After approaching, holding it in his hand and looking at it, Xie Mingzhu was ecstatic!
This is a great thing to make cement with!
"Qin Che, I found a good thing, but I can't confirm whether it can be used yet?"

Qin Che also squatted beside Xie Mingzhu, and asked with concern, "Then what is this?"

"cement!"

Xie Mingzhu briefly talked about the role of cement, and then said: "If it is confirmed that it is cement, we can build a cement road. After the cement road is built, there will be no problem in traveling whether it is sunny or raining."
