Zheng Ping brought a bundle and took Prince Zheng's hand out of the house together.

Liu Qingcao bought a carriage for the two of them, and the money for the carriage was deducted from Craftsman Zheng's wages.

Zheng Ping drove the carriage to find a group of his brothers and asked them to go to work in the wasteland with them. Because there were many houses, Zheng Ping took in thirty new workers and took them with him.

When Liu Qingcao returned to Changhuang Land, it was already very late. He guessed that Zheng Ping's group would arrive early tomorrow morning, so he didn't wait any longer. He casually glanced at Li Feng and Li Mu who were keeping watch not far away, and opened the thick The straw curtain enters the straw shed.

She bought the bedding in the thatched shed from Wushan Town. She also bought a lot of medicinal herbs and asked Li Feng to arrange for people to boil them for the villagers to drink.

In recent days, villagers surnamed Li have eaten space rice grains, and their bodies have gradually returned to normal, with few frail and sick people.

Liu Qingcao stayed in the space for two hours, ate a few bites of supper and then fell asleep on the bed in the thatched shed.

Have a good night's sleep, and the sky is bright.

"Master, it's time for breakfast." Li Feng stood three meters away from the shed and shouted softly.

Liu Qingcao sat up from the bed and said softly "hmm" to indicate that she understood.

Li Feng sighed and turned around to leave. He only had three meals a day when they were busy farming together, but their three meals were not as good as his employer's meal. They were grateful but also worried.

Liu Qingcao put on her clothes, fixed her hair, and walked out of the shed.

"Brother Li, you don't have to wait for me in the future, you can just eat first." Liu Qingcao walked faster when she saw that they were waiting for her again.

"Master, this is prepared for you. Try it first to see if it suits your taste."

When Liu Qingcao saw that Li Feng did not agree, she no longer forced her. They were not familiar with each other and had an employer-employer relationship. If they had to abide by the rules, she would have to accept it.

"Brother Li, the builders are coming today to build the house. There should be a lot of people. If you ask someone to build three stoves, just connect the stoves like yours. This will save firewood."

"Sure, I'll arrange for Li Shuanzi and the others to choose a place soon." Li Feng agreed directly without any hesitation.

Not long after breakfast, Zheng Ping led his people to Changhuangdi. There were seventy people in the crowd. With such a large force, those who didn't know it thought they were here to ransack their homes.

"Girl, I've brought everyone here." Zheng Ping saw Liu Qingcao at a glance and raised his legs to come to her.

Liu Qingcao smiled and nodded, "Let's go and look at the land first, and then choose a place to build a few rest shacks. Since you are all here and there are a lot of people, you can make the stove yourself and use fire. Bake it and it will be ready for use at noon."

"Okay, let's do it when we get there. It won't be troublesome if there are many people." The gloom on Zheng Ping's face disappeared, and now he was full of energy, smiling very much like Liu Kaifu.

"Brother Li, you take the people there first. You just happened to take the four sisters-in-law to cook there. The wages are the same as opening up wasteland." Liu Qingcao thought that he still had something to do, so he handed the people over to Li Feng.

Li Feng was about the same age as Zheng Ping, and he happily took the man to Ba Mu, holding hands during the process, as if he had known each other for a long time.

After a group of people left, Liu Qingcao drove Junfeng to Wushan Town. This time, she was going to sell steaming buckets and pre-ordered kitchen utensils, and by the way, she bought rice, grains, meat and vegetables for the builders and others.

As soon as she returned to the Chang Wasteland, Liu Qingcao asked people to move the things down and put them into the grain shed. She walked around one of the hills in the Chang Wasteland alone, took out a hoe and dug up the soil with a shovel. All taken into space.

When it was lunch time, Liu Qingcao stopped what he was doing and walked towards the shack.

With more people and greater strength, in just three hours, the shack that Zheng Ping and the others lived in had already taken shape, and it was estimated that it would be ready by night.

The three pots and stoves on the side were already dry and in use. Liu Qingcao promised them three meals a day so that they could build the house as soon as possible.

Liu Qingcao gave the drawings to Zheng Ping yesterday. It was an earthen house with four rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a yard. Among the seventy of them, there were thirty new workers. In the next month, they could only build three or more at most. If the new workers become skilled, they can build five or nearly six houses in one month.

There are forty-five households in the village named Li, and it will probably take half a year to complete the construction. It is already autumn, and it is almost October in late autumn, when the temperature starts to drop.

This house can only be built first, and when the weather gets cold, the elderly, weak, sick, disabled, and pregnant people will be arranged to move in first, and the rest can only be slowed down first.

In two months, seven houses were built, and the weather was already very cold. During the day, Li Feng and the others went out to work, but it was not too cold, but at night, the cold could freeze people to death, especially in winter. , the cold can freeze people into ice cubes.

No, we have to let Li Feng take advantage of this period to cut down more trees that are strong and resistant to burning and burn charcoal in case of emergency.

On the way back, Liu Qingcao thought of this and went directly to Li Feng to tell him about the matter. Li Feng also knew how cold the winter was and did not dare to delay. He directly asked the villagers to take turns to go to battle, which made them busy for more than an hour every day. When Liu Qingcao arrived at Ba Mu, Zheng Ping and his group were eating to their satisfaction. Each person had a big flat bowl, and Liu Qingcao screamed at the sight of the bowl of food.

Good guy, can they be...stronger than Liu Kaifu? ?

Liu Qingcao knew that the food she provided was much better than elsewhere. Although it would cost a lot of money, she just got a large sum of money and she didn't need to order it out. She felt uneasy.

"Carpenter Zheng, where is your sister-in-law?" Liu Qingcao looked around and saw Wang Yuee'e, so he asked.

Craftsman Zheng put down the empty bowl and looked at the shed built nearby, with a soft look in his eyes, "Girl, she is helping us sew quilts in the shed."

"Let sister-in-law rest more, she's just feeling better and shouldn't work too hard." Liu Qingcao nodded and reminded her.

Zheng Ping smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Miss, for reminding me, I will tell my wife."

"Girl, I've seen it. The location of this land is very good. If you have the vision, you can drill several wells." Zheng Ping remembered that he had visited Ba Mu when he came in the morning, and he had a clear idea of ​​the terrain here.

This place is indeed a good piece of land. Although it faces a long wasteland without vegetation, the land under his feet is indeed a good piece of land.

"How many are there?"

"Yes, girl, there are five good eyes and four smaller eyes." Zheng Ping nodded affirmatively. He had never made a mistake when looking at the eyes.

Liu Qingcao raised her eyebrows. She knew how to see springs, but she didn't see them as carefully as Craftsman Zheng. She saw all the big springs, but she didn't pay attention to the small ones. However, this also shows that Craftsman Zheng is really capable.

"Then I'll have to worry about digging the well, Craftsman Zheng. Those who are good at it will dig it, and the smaller ones will be dug as appropriate. The wages will be calculated together when the time comes." Liu Qingcao likes to do things once and for all, and doesn't like repetitions. Things that can be solved at once, I don't intend to delay it.

Zheng Ping was naturally happy and agreed immediately.

The construction of the house will start tomorrow. If he has free time today, he will send someone to dig out the foundation to facilitate the groundbreaking tomorrow.

In the afternoon, Liu Qingcao went to the hilltop where he dug the soil in the morning.

She waited until it was dark, and it wasn't until she heard Li Feng calling for dinner that Liu Qingcao quickly put away the shovel and hoe and ran towards the shack.

After dinner, Liu Qingcao quietly ran out of the hut and headed towards the place where she dug a hole.

When she was really dozing off, Liu Qingcao went into the space to rest. She slept soundly until it was dark, and she didn't come out until dawn.

"Brother Li, I have to go out in the near future. This is the money to buy food. I took it to buy food before I came back. Craftsman Zheng also asked Brother Li to make a trip." Liu Qingcao took out a cloth bag and There are ten taels of silver in it. Even if she doesn't come back for ten days, they won't starve. After all, she has bought a lot of food these days.

Li Feng looked at the money bag and did not dare to take it. Liu Qingcao stuffed it directly into his hand, "Brother Li, someone has to handle this matter. Craftsman Zheng and the others have to build a house and time is tight. This matter can only be done by Brother Li. Take the money." Come on, I believe in Brother Li’s character.”

Li Feng could only continue now, secretly wanting to do a good job and not let down his employer's trust.

Li Feng's side was troubled, and Liu Qingcao found Craftsman Zheng again and gave him part of the money needed to build the house.

"Craftsman Zheng, this is thirty taels of silver. You need to buy the materials for building the house first. The house must be strong and durable, and the foundation must be dug deep. Drainage ditches and roads must be paved with stones as much as possible, so that The house is guaranteed to last for many years.”

"Don't worry, girl, I will arrange it tomorrow. I will do what the girl said. Don't worry, girl, you will see the wall built when you come back." Zheng Ping promised with a smile.

Liu Qingcao nodded and handed the silver into his hand.

In fact, the things needed to build a house are not expensive, but the quantities are quite large, especially the earth walls. If you want good stickiness, you can add small stones, straw and bamboo strips. If you want it to be better, you have to add it. Sticky millet porridge.

Millet is a grain and is not cheap, but in order to make it stronger, Liu Qingcao asked Craftsman Zheng to add 10% of millet porridge paste, and then add straw and other things.

These millets require a lot of money, and she is away during this period, so the money needs to be paid to the builders in advance so that they can choose and buy it.

It was also a good time to use this money to test Li Feng and Craftsman Zheng to see if they were as reassuring as she saw.

After everything was done, Liu Qingcao left the Changhuang Land with Junfeng and walked along the official road towards Wuzhou Fucheng.
