After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 105 Delivering hay and starting work【4】

Manager Xue asked Craftsman Liu again: "Can it be done in ten days?"

Craftsman Liu took the drawings, looked around them, and said with a smile: "It won't take ten days, it can be completed in six days at most!"

Manager Xue said: "So fast? You have to do it well."

Craftsman Liu: "I'll definitely do it for you, otherwise it will ruin our reputation!"

He explained further: "The foundation and beams of this house are good, and there are not many things that need to be replaced, so it can be built so quickly."

Although the ghost village is weird, the ghost village has been home to rich families before. The rich family's home is in the west of the village. The main house is the Qin family's mansion, and the two houses on the left and right are secondary houses with two and three bedrooms. The materials and workmanship They are all of the highest quality, so even after decades, this shabby house is still very resistant.

but……

Craftsman Liu asked: "As soon as the You hour comes, we have to stop work and leave the village. If it rains normally, we will leave at the right time. If it rains heavily, we will leave the village before it rains... Manager Xue also You know, it’s better to believe that it exists than to believe that it doesn’t exist.”

Manager Xue was convinced and looked at Craftsman Liu who was as tall as a bear: "You are so strong and bearded, and your portrait can be used as a door god. Are you still afraid of this?"

Craftsman Liu said: "You outsiders don't understand, but we locals understand it very well. We have been scared since we were young, and it is rainy and gloomy. It is really difficult to stay in a ghost village for too long."

The other craftsmen also nodded: "Yes, yes, if you stay here for a long time, the yang energy in your body will be depleted."

Manager Xue said: "Chengchengcheng, it's as you said, but if that's the case, then the wages can't be calculated on a daily basis, they have to be fixed at a fixed price."

What if you delay the construction period?

"That's for sure." Craftsman Liu quoted the price again: "Ten people, six days of hard work, six taels of silver..."

"How about five taels?" Seeing that Manager Xue still looked unhappy, Craftsman Liu gritted his teeth and said: "Forty taels of silver, let's make friends with the Xue Family Trading Company. If the Xue Family Trading Company has any business in the future, they can come to us." , how’s it going?”

Manager Xue then agreed: "Sure. Let's sign the deed."

After all, the Qin family's house is nearby, and for the safety of the female family members, it must be signed.

Craftsman Liu and the others also had to sign when they went to work in the county town, so they signed without hesitation.

In order to finish the work as early as possible, Craftsman Liu immediately called to the craftsmen: "Work!"

"Hey!" The nine craftsmen immediately picked up their tools and started working.

With all the materials available, by the time you arrived, they had already built a row of large stoves.

Dang-dang-dang, Craftsman Liu banged the iron brick knife and shouted in a loud voice: "It's Youshi, Youshi, the sun is going down, hurry up and get out!"

"The time is up, retreat quickly." The other craftsmen hurriedly collected their things and almost rushed out of the ghost village. The people of Zhoujia Village who were guarding the entrance of the village were confused.

Could it be that this ghost-driven attitude was caused by those things in the west of the village?

It's so scary, and they are so scared. Can they go back to the village?

The children of the Zhou family all looked at the leader, Zhou Shisan.

Zhou Shisan was also afraid, but he said: "Stay half an hour longer and leave after half of the hour... Manager Xue and the others are also here, what are you afraid of?"

Disciples of the Zhou family: "..." That's because Steward Xue and the others are slaves and must obey the orders of their master. If Steward Xue is free, do you think Steward Xue will run away?

Zhou Shisan ignored them and just silently said in his heart: Infinite Heavenly Lord, protect me from evil spirits!

……

The next day, as soon as Chenshi arrived, Craftsman Liu and the others arrived.

Today, the materials are more complete and their progress is faster. By noon on the fifth day, they had finished their work. Manager Xue brought Grandpa Qin, Qin Xiaomi, and Jiang Dalang together for acceptance inspection.

Craftsman Liu and the others covered their noses one after another and hid aside... No wonder the Qin family dared to live in the west of the village. The smell was so strong that even ghosts did not dare to come near.

After Qin Xiaomi turned around, he smiled and said: "The work is very good, thank you all masters."

All the crumbling ones were demolished, new walls were built, and a layer of white plaster was painted on the walls inside the house, making it very bright and clean.

Craftsman Liu held his breath and laughed: "This is a craft inherited from our family. We dare not embarrass our ancestors... Manager Xue, please pay us the remaining wages."

Hurry up, this girl stinks so much, if we smoke her out again, we'll have to pay more!

"Go to the entrance of the village and I'll pay you for your work." Manager Xue couldn't hold it in any longer. The Qin family's girl's body odor was so strong today that her head was swollen.

A group of people rushed out of the Jiang family's house and rushed to the village entrance with tacit understanding. The Zhou family was frightened again. They couldn't help but come up and ask: "Master Liu, is the west of the village really so evil? Even you were frightened."

Craftsman Liu nodded fiercely: "It's really scary, I can't bear it at all!"

As for the stench of the Qin family girl, no one can stand it... Fortunately, she escaped to the Northeast Prefecture. If she went to the capital or Jiangnan Prefecture and smelt the nobles, she would be dragged away and beheaded!

After hearing this, the Zhou family members were so frightened that their legs trembled: "It's true, it's true! Brother Thirteen, let's go back early today."

If they stay any longer, they will be the next ones to be scared.

People on both sides have their own opinions, but neither side is afraid of the true feelings.

"Craftsman Liu, here are the remaining two taels of silver. Take it." Manager Xue gave the money to Craftsman Liu, took out a booklet, pointed to it and said, "Come here, sign and fingerprint, this is a great job." Even if it’s over.”

Craftsman Liu took the money and signed the name, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Thank you, Manager Xue, for the job. If you have any jobs in the future, come back to me, Liu Dashan."

Manager Xue thought Craftsman Liu was a good one and said with a smile: "The Qin family will build a new workshop this year. When the time comes, I will come to you, so you have to continue to do a good job."

After hearing this, Craftsman Liu's face collapsed and he said stiffly: "Well, we'll talk about it then... I'll take my leave now, Manager Xue, take care of yourself."

The last half of the sentence was spoken from the bottom of his heart. He was really afraid that Manager Xue would be driven crazy.

After saying that, Craftsman Liu and the others didn't stay long and left immediately... They had to go home quickly to take a shower and change clothes, otherwise their daughter-in-law wouldn't be allowed to go to bed.

……

Qin Xiaomi and the others are still visiting the Jiang family house. The more they look at it, the more they like it, especially the main room on the left: "Da Lang, you can live more comfortably in the future... After the renovation, this room is like new. It is just plaster." Strong taste."

Lime was sprinkled to remove moisture, so the room smelled of lime.

Jiang Dalang looked at her and smiled: "Xiaomi, please make me a sachet. I will hang it in the room and the lime smell will not be so strong."

Qin Xiaomi agreed: "Okay. It's hot today and there are many mosquitoes. Grandpa and I will make a batch of insect repellent sachets for you to wear."

After hearing this, Jiang Dalang was a little disappointed, but it was good that Susu was willing to do his part.

Moreover, Su Su talked to him a lot today, and even cared about whether his stay was comfortable... This meant that she started to care about him from the bottom of her heart.

Grandpa Qin was watching from the side, very happy... Look, look how good our uncle is, Xiaomi, you have to cherish it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xue Feng came and shouted at the door: "Brother Jiang, Mr. Qin, granddaughter Qin, many people came to the village entrance, saying they wanted to deliver hay to your family. Manager Xue asked you to go out and see if you want it. Accept it?"
