The Rebirth of 88 Begins with a Carpenter

Chapter 91 You Really Know How to Praise People, Don’t Praise Next Time (Read More)
Amidst the sound of crackling firecrackers, Fifth Master Qiao sang, "Start work!"

Kind of like that.

Immediately, the young master bricklayers began to go to the house to uncover the tiles.

Mr. Qiao Wu started to sprinkle lime along the marks left by the surveyors of the homestead in the village.

Wu Yuan was on the sidelines to accompany him.

After accompanying him, I found out: "Hey, fifth master, your lime lines are quite neatly scattered."

"How fresh!" Fifth Master Qiao curled his lips, full of pride: "It's like someone praising you for playing ink fountain well."

As an old carpenter, Wu Yuan smacked it. If someone really praised the ink fountain for playing well, he just wanted to say: You really know how to praise people, so don't praise it next time.

After all, if there were other things to brag about, it would never be about playing the ink fountain.

Not long after, Fifth Master Qiao straightened up, and the baseline of the small building was already on the ground.

Beating the old man's waist, Fifth Master Qiao said with emotion: "It's really old!"

Immediately ordered Wu Yuan: "Call your small workers to dig the foundation. The depth should not be lower than 80 cm. This cannot be discounted."

"okay."

Wu Yuan responded, and called Zhang Yan, the daughter-in-law of the Ming Army, Miao Hong, the daughter-in-law of the Ming Dynasty, and the aunt next door.

These rural daughters-in-law are all capable.

He is also very eager to help his family.

In the past two weddings, they held the running water banquet, and they all needed their help.

It's just to help out at the running water table, and it's not good to settle wages for others.

Now as a small worker to help, Wu Yuan can justifiably pay them wages.

Zhang Yan, Miao Hong, and Aunt Dai rushed over after hearing the sound, carrying a shovel.

Wu Yuan explained by drawing the lime line.

Before she finished speaking, Zhang Yan said carelessly: "Master, you don't need to say more. We have dug the foundation, make sure it is big and deep enough!"

That being the case, Wu Yuan simply stopped talking nonsense and said, "Then thank you all for your hard work."

So more than a dozen female soldiers spat on their palms one after another, rubbed their saliva, raised their shovels, and dug officially.

Digging foundations is hard work.

No one is willing to do this in later generations, and it has been completely replaced by mechanized operations such as excavators.

In fact, Wu Yuan also wanted to find an excavator to dig.

Not only does it save manpower, but the progress is also fast.

It's a pity that the conditions these years are really lackluster.

The township construction station has no machinery except for a handful of coolies.

As soon as the arrangements were made here, Fifth Master Qiao stood in the yard and called Wu Yuan to come over.

When Wu Yuan passed by, he saw Fifth Master Qiao pointing at the criss-crossing circles and lines on the blueprint and asking in confusion, "What are these things?"

Wu Yuan explained: "This is a pre-buried sewer pipe, which is convenient for bathing and going to the toilet in the building."

"Oh, it's the same as the buildings in the city. You can't go out for eating and drinking." Fifth Master Qiao suddenly realized, "That's so delicious!"

"It can be flushed with water. Look, fifth master, in the east tool room, there is a water tank that is as high as the chimney of the kitchen. The water pipes leading from here extend to the toilets and bathrooms upstairs and downstairs. Doesn't that mean there is running water? Is it gone?"

Qiao Wuye said, "Western style! Can the water pressure be guaranteed?"

"Just build the water tank a little higher."

"That's about the same. But where does the water go?"

"There are two ways to drain water. One way enters this three-stage filter septic tank, and the other way domestic sewage goes directly into the drainage ditch."

"This septic tank is made of bricks, and the top is still sealed. What do you do with farmyard manure? What if it's full?"

"The top is sealed with a cement cover, which is convenient for future maintenance."

After thinking about it, Fifth Master Qiao couldn't help sighing.

"I thought it would be a luxury for you kid to use a reinforced concrete frame structure, but I didn't expect that even a small hut would cost so much. Tsk tsk, it seems that your kid has really made a lot of money in the past two years."

In fact, what Wu Yuan wanted to do was far more than that.

If it weren't for the shortage of electricity in the countryside and the lack of gas, he even thought about building water heaters and heating the whole house.

Unlike the current design drawings, only the relevant hot water pipe network and cold water pipe network can be reserved. Whether it is an electric boiler, an electric water heater, or a solar water heater, it can be easily connected.

After hearing Qiao Wuye's words, Wu Yuan interrupted with a smile: "Look at what you said, Wuye, no matter how much money I earn, I don't have as much salt as you used to eat."

"Good guy, are you the fifth master? I grew up eating salt?"

"Fifth Lord, I'm just making an analogy."

"But you're really smart, you kid. Design institutes in counties and cities may not be able to produce such blueprints. It's time for you to make a lot of money and make a fortune."

In fact, Wu Yuan had already memorized these blueprints in his mind.

After earning some money in my previous life, I always wanted to go back to my hometown and build a small villa, watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court in my free time, and watch the clouds roll and cloud in the sky when I sit.

It's a pity that the blueprints filled my mind, but the small villa has never been built.

Now it has been realized ahead of schedule.

"Fifth Master, you've flattered me again."

"I'm telling the truth. I'm not like the fourth brother. If I leave such a good apprentice without help, I will suffer for my face."

"Fifth Master, Master has done a good job."

"What a fart! Wait until he finishes punching those rows of chairs in the auditorium, and wait to drink the northwest wind!"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Wu Yuan remembered Fifth Master's words in his heart.

In one day's time, the old hall was completely demolished.

Although the main house has only been built for a few years, the prefabricated blocks used to build the walls, due to the lack of steel bars and insufficient cement content, collapsed into pieces when they fell down.

But the foundation side has only just begun. Looking at the progress, it is estimated that it will take about a week.

Wu Yuan's estimate was very accurate.

A week later, the foundation was finally dug day and night with Zhang Yan and a dozen women soldiers.

While commanding the reinforcement workers to go into battle, Fifth Master Qiao began to mix cement, sand and stones.

The original hydraulic well has long since been dismantled and a pump has been installed.

Otherwise, relying solely on manpower to press the well to produce water will have to be pressed to the end of time.

In addition, this concrete mixer was borrowed by Wu Yuan from Beiyin City after asking Yang Ben with great effort.

If a workman wants to be good, he must first sharpen his weapon.

With this mixer, concrete making is much faster.

In the blink of an eye, on the third day, March 3, the most costly foundation was finally completed.

Master Qiao Wu commanded Zhang Yan and the women's army, and backfilled the earthwork by 20 centimeters, just to make the foundation of the small building slightly higher than the surrounding vegetable fields.

It not only avoids the trouble of hauling the earth, but also increases the depth of the foundation.

It is more than enough to build a three-story, 10-meter-high foundation on a one-meter-deep foundation.

What's more, Wu Yuan only planned to build a two-story building with an attic.

Once the foundation is laid, the walls can be built quickly.

Wu Yuan didn't even need to supervise the work in this regard.

If anyone is crooked, Mr. Qiao Wu can scold him bloody.

But if you get scolded, you get scolded, and if you make a mistake, you have to do it all over again, no one is talking nonsense.

One is because Mr. Qiao Wu is indeed an authority in this area, and his words are useful; the other is that the food that the master manages every day is too rich. In addition to no wine, there are fish, meat, and cigarettes, which is enough.

Such conditions are hard to find with a lantern.

So if you are scolded, just scold a few words, and you won't lose a piece of meat anyway.

　I have to say thank you three times, thank you Yanzu Yifei for your strong support yesterday!Please continue to study hard for another day today, and I will stop chattering tomorrow, and let everyone have a quiet reading environment.After all, everyone didn't come to see me to babble.Thank you everyone, come on!The third shift is over, see you tomorrow!
