Chapter 892
"Madam..." Yin Tao waited for half an hour, but no one came, and the steward she brought from home was a little anxious.

Yin Tao is the old god drinking tea on the ground and looking at the blueprint in his hand.

Dadongzhuang has no shortage of water and does not have to compete with other villages for water sources. However, several reservoirs must be built to prevent drought. She took a pen and wrote down the suggestions for building reservoirs on the blueprint.

"Ma'am, why don't you go find the head of the village again!" The manager said, "They didn't come because they deliberately made things difficult for you, Madam. If you bring some people, you must let them all come!" The tenants in the capital said There is a shortage in other places, and it is also related to the frequency of labor recruitment in the capital.

Building palaces, official residences, imperial mausoleums, Chidao, etc... and this time Shen Xiao led troops and food to support the Yingshan camp.

These civilian husbands were temporarily transferred from the counties and prefectures attached to the capital.

All these things...it cost a lot of civilians, and the cost of men...it's really unimaginable.

Yin Tao shook her head: "Twisted melons are not sweet, so let's forget about them not wanting to come. By the way, when will the bricks and tiles I asked you to buy arrive? And when will the builders arrive?"

"If you go back to Madam, we have enough money, and the bricks and tiles will be delivered in no time at most, and the head craftsman is already waiting outside!" the manager hurriedly said.

Yin Tao nodded: "Let Chen Xiao come over."

"Yes!" The steward nodded, and soon after he left, Chen Xiao came.Yin Tao handed him the blueprint in his hand: "Build it roughly like this, if there is something unreasonable, you can modify it, and the revised blueprint should be properly preserved!"

Chen Xiao responded, and Yin Tao said again: "The chief craftsman has come, I will build the house within ten days, you take them to see it on the spot, and then give me the specific budget!"

"Yes, ma'am!" Chen Xiao took over the blueprint. Yin Tao gave him a copy of the blueprint a few days ago, and this copy is for Yin Tao's purpose.So he had actually already figured out a rough idea, and he could give Yin Tao a more specific budget plan after doing some calculations with the craftsmen later.

"Thanks for your hard work!" Yin Tao said to him with a smile, "After the house is built, your reward will be indispensable!" Yin Tao has always been generous to technical talents.

Yin Jiye stumbling her behind, the tenants of this farm are afraid to come to see her new owner, and the tenants of the other two farms must be the same.

So, she wants to come up with a benchmark.

Then the first room and the second room just follow suit.

Because the money was in place, and the manager had left some connections, the bricks and tiles arrived one after another just after noon.

Yin Tao asked the manager to send someone to buy according to Chen Xiao's previous estimate. When the official budget comes out, there will be more but not much more.

Besides, things like bricks and tiles won't break, and they can be put aside to build other things later.

Bricks and tiles entered the village, the commotion was too loud, and immediately attracted the attention of the villagers. In the whole village, except for the main family's two big houses built with green bricks, only Zhuangtou's house had three big tile houses made of green bricks. The others are all adobe and grass houses.

So suddenly seeing so many bricks, tiles and timber entering the village, everyone was very envious.

"Dare to ask my little brother, who bought these old bricks and tiles?" Some villagers stepped forward to ask, and other villagers also stared at the brick puller.

While driving the mule cart, the little brother who helped push the cart panted and said, "Your Zhuangzi's new owner bought it."

"Doesn't my master have a house? Why do you still buy so many bricks and tiles? Could it be that my master thinks the house is too small and wants to expand it?" Someone asked suspiciously.

But take a look at the long brick pulling team, how big the house is that the owner of so many bricks and tiles wants to expand...

Really envious.

But does that mean they can find work on their doorstep?
Many people had such an idea in their hearts, and after discussing it for a while, they planned to ask.

"It's okay to ask, but who will ask? The Zhen Guogong Mansion won't let us take care of that!" Someone said.

As soon as the sound came out, everyone fell silent.

No one dared to offend the government of the town, and if they were offended, it would not be a matter of lack of land to grow, but a matter of whether the family's lives could be saved.

A county magistrate can destroy the homes of ordinary people, let alone the current prince!
They have already made plans. After planting this crop, they will wait for the government to subsidize them with money, and then they will rent official land to plant.

Each of their households has a few acres of official land allocated to them more or less.

"The Zhen Guo government just said that we won't let us lease the land from the new owner, but didn't say that we won't let us do odd jobs!" Someone couldn't help but say.

Everyone said yes, but no one dared to inquire.

After much deliberation, everyone made an appointment to find Zhuangtou. When they found Zhuangtou, Zhuangtou was lying on the deck chair beside the bamboo forest and fell asleep.

It was snoring loudly, like someone pulling on a blown bellows.

The big guy woke him up, and when he got up, the arrogant Zhuangtou scolded the visitor.

After scolding, I asked angrily: "What are you all doing here? What happened?"

Someone apologized and said with a smile: "Zhuangtou, the new owner bought a lot of bricks and tiles..."

"Buy him, it's none of your business!" Zhuangtou was so depressed that he woke him up just for this matter!
"No, we just wanted to ask if we could find some work!"

"Damn it, don't talk to her!" Zhuangtou opened his mouth and scolded, "But if someone with shallow eyes like that gets close to her, don't blame me for not reminding you, this woman has offended the Duke's government very much." The people who have become friends, you put your family's wealth and life into it for a few small money... Humph!
Don't come to ask me to intercede for you at that time! "

Crowd: ...

As long as you leave in a sly manner, but you have a good brain, go back and discuss with your family and say: "We can't find work, can't we let relatives come to find work?

As long as it's not from Dadongzhuang... The Duke's Mansion didn't say hello to everyone in the capital!
At that time, we will pretend that we don't know that they are recruited from outside..."

"Daddy, you're so smart! Then I'll go back to my mother's house and tell my father! It's just not the autumn harvest yet, and there's not a lot of work in the fields. My mother and a few sisters-in-law can finish it with a little hard work."

"Money is not easy to earn. If you can earn more money, you can eat more at home. Hey...we are unlucky!" The man sighed. He also wanted to find a job. The work is so delicious!

There are quite a few families who have the same idea, and almost half of the women in Dadongzhuang rushed to their natal homes under the scorching sun.

When Yin Tao fell asleep at noon, Zhu Ying told her that some young people from other villages came to ask if there was any work.

Yin Tao asked: "What about the people in this village?"

Zhu Ying said: "People in this village are watching from a distance, these people from other villages are basically related to them..."
