Chapter 265

Xiaoqi was unshakeable and accompanied her grandfather to the mountain temple to supervise the work every day. Jinxiu went with her for the first one or two days. Later, she might feel that it was really boring, so she no longer asked to go.

In fact, she was able to persist for a day or two, which already made Xiao Qi feel that this little girl has grown a lot. You must know that the little girl is impatient, and it is not easy to persist for two days.

At this time, the father and father have arrived at the Shanshen Temple. After the hard work of the craftsmen and masters in the past few days, the roof and walls have almost been cleaned up.

Today they are going to lift the bluestone slabs in the temple and re-lay them.

Xiao Qi walked around the mountain temple, and sure enough, after the repairs, it gave people a completely different feeling.

The previous feeling of grayness and desolation has all disappeared, and the complete glazed tiles on the roof are shining under the sunlight.

The only fly in the ointment is that the walls of the mountain temple are overgrown with weeds, it seems that it needs to be cleaned up.

These tasks cannot be entrusted to the master craftsmen, they are too busy to touch the ground every day, and they have no time to clean up these weeds, and these are not within the scope of their work.

Xiao Qi shrugged, since she couldn't see it, she might as well do it herself. Thinking of this, the little girl started pulling her teeth around the mountain temple.

The old man who had been staying in front of the mountain temple hadn't seen his granddaughter coming for a long time, so he looked for it strangely, and the old man laughed when he saw his granddaughter's actions.

It turned out that the granddaughter was pulling weeds around the mountain temple, and these weeds were easily uprooted by her.

Great strength is good, you must know that the roots of these weeds are very deep, and it is difficult for such a young girl to uproot them.

Knowing that his granddaughter didn't run away, the old man was relieved, and walked back to the mountain temple with his leisurely pace. He still didn't compete with his granddaughter for work.

Just a few more days passed, and the inside and outside of the Shanshen Temple took on a new look, including the new gate of the Shanshen Temple.

Although the vermilion door is not as good as the previous temple door in terms of wood, it looks good overall. The door panel is made of thick materials, and a thick layer of transparent copper paint is painted on it.

All the bluestone slabs were also removed and replaced with new ones, and the gaps between the slate slabs were filled with white lime to prevent weeds from reappearing.

And all the old bluestone slabs that were removed were laid outside the mountain temple, and none of them was wasted. They were paved from the front of the mountain temple to the path behind the mountain temple.

The gate is the last process. After the gate is installed, the work of repairing the mountain temple will come to an end, and it is almost completed.

The next step is the acceptance work, the old man took Xiaoqi into the mountain temple.

As soon as I entered the temple, I felt that it was very different from before the renovation. The walls of the temple were repainted, and there was no trace of weeds in the temple. Even the altar statues were repainted.

Even the walls around the temple are painted with red copper paint. The painted walls are not easy to be eroded by rainwater and play a very good protective role.

The temple has regained its appearance before its downfall, and a solemn atmosphere naturally exudes, making people want to worship.

My father and I are very satisfied after seeing it. The craftsmanship of the master craftsmen is indeed very good. The roof with a big hole was rotten before, and there is no trace of repair at all.

Xiao Qi observed it mentally and did not find anything wrong. These craftsmen are still very professional, and the materials used are all good, and nothing shoddy happened.

The father and father are very satisfied, and the next thing is to pay the wages. The construction period is [-] days in total, [-] Wen per day, one person, that is, six taels of silver.

The seven people needed a total of 42 taels of silver, plus the 200 taels paid before, it was actually much less than what Xiaoqi had budgeted.

According to Xiao Qi's thinking, even such a large house would cost three to four hundred taels of silver.

The old man handed over the silver to these master craftsmen with his own hands, and gave each of them an extra two hundred Wen, which was a thank you for their hard work for so many days.

The master craftsmen were very happy to get the silver, and looked at the silver in their hands with joy. They have earned so much silver in less than half a month, and this year's life will be much easier.

Some of the money left over from buying materials before food expenses was also divided among several of them.

Since the master gave them the money, they would not ask where the money came from. As long as they didn't cut corners, how much money they could leave was up to them.

To be honest, if the owner of the material buys it by himself, not only will there be no surplus of 200 taels of silver, but a lot will probably come out. After all, one is a stranger and the other is a cooperation. There is a small difference in price.

Therefore, a smart host usually asks them to make a budget in advance, estimate the approximate price, hand over the money to them and let them prepare the materials themselves, so that both parties are happy.

In the end, the remaining silver taels from the purchase of materials were divided into more than four taels of silver per person. In the short period of more than ten days plus wages, they could earn what they had earned in a year. many.

Fortunately, they accepted the job this time. To be honest, when they didn’t come to the mountain temple, they were all very nervous. Although they agreed to the repair because of the money, they were still worried and uneasy.

Unexpectedly, when they came to the mountain temple, the repair work went very smoothly, including the repair tools they used, and there have been no problems these days.

You must know that when they built or repaired a house in the past, there were always some problems with the tools in their hands, and it was impossible for everything to go smoothly.

This time it was extremely rare and very smooth. If it was not for the blessing of the mountain god, they would not believe it. After going through the Zen mountain temple this time, they thought from the bottom of their hearts that all the scary legends before should be rumors. up.

The master craftsmen who got the silver were very happy, and they all greeted the old man politely while enduring their fear.

Especially the craftsman surnamed Du, even though he was a little afraid of the old man, still smiled and said: "Thank you, old man Lu, it's too late today, I will definitely invite the old man to drink some other day, and in the future, if the old man has work in this area, just come to them. Offer the lowest price."

The old man nodded, and said with an open face: "You don't need to drink, and you are not easy to be tired for so many days, so go home and rest."

After hearing the words, the master craftsmen were not hypocritical, and thanked the old man again. Speaking of which, it was thanks to the old man that they made so much money this time. They are still very grateful, and it is not an exaggeration to say a few more words of thanks.

After all, they have dealt with him a few times, and they know a little about the old man's temper. These people didn't talk nonsense, they packed up their things one after another, and left the mountain temple resolutely in a few ox carts.

Looking at the departing craftsmen and looking at the newly renovated mountain temple, the joy in Xiaoqi's heart is needless to say, I really feel that the hairs all over my body are stretched out, and I feel very relaxed.

Ever since she knew that she came to Dasang Country to have a relationship with the mountain god grandfather, Xiao Qi, who doesn't like to accept favors from others, always seems to have a stone hanging there in her heart.

Now it's all right, the mountain god temple has been renovated, and she helped the mountain god grandpa get rid of the karma before, and now it's really equal to each other as the mountain god grandpa said, and the stone in my heart has also been moved go.

Crossing the threshold of the temple, Xiao Qi and his grandfather entered the mountain temple again. Xiao Qi looked at the spotless statue of the mountain god in a trance, and said silently in his heart.

"The mountain god grandfather Xiaoqi has done what he promised you. You should cultivate and protect this land well. When Xiaoqi is free, he will come here every now and then to offer incense to you."

After meditating, I don't know if it was Xiaoqi's illusion, but I always felt that the smile of the mountain god above deepened a bit and he winked at himself.

Xiao Qiwan'er smiled, and Grandpa Shanshen was really naughty, then she relaxed and pulled Grandpa who stood beside him silently, "Grandpa, let's go back."

Hearing that the old man held his granddaughter's hand tightly and smiled, with his granddaughter's relaxed expression, it seems that the mountain god is very satisfied, right?
