Chapter 27

"Shopkeeper, I have something I want to ask you for a favor. I don't know if it's convenient or not." Su Wan took the silver ingot and asked with a smile while putting it into her bosom.

Shopkeeper Huang looked at the river crabs as if he was looking at a piece of silver, and he felt elated for a while.

He asked someone to send the river crab to the kitchen, and said with a smile: "It's convenient, what's the matter?"

"I want to ask you, where is there a seller of blue bricks in the town, and if you want to build a yard with two entrances and two exits, how much will it cost?" Su Wan asked with a smile.

"Oh, you are really asking the right person. My wife's natal brother is in the green brick business, and there are a group of workers under him who specialize in building houses for others. Is it your family who wants to build a house?" Shopkeeper Huang heard the words Smiling, looked at Su Wan and asked.

"That's right, then please trouble shopkeeper Huang to lead the line." Su Wan was delighted, she didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

"Sure, I'll ask my son to take you there. How much is needed? He's an expert, so you can talk about it." Huang Youde waved to a boy as he spoke, asking him to invite the young master over.

Huang Youde's son is 12 years old this year. He is called Jin Jin.

Huang Youde asked someone to prepare a roast duck and two boxes of snacks, and asked Jin Jin to pick them up, and before leaving the house, he said: "Jin Jin, when I saw my uncle, I told my uncle that these two girls are friends of my father, and I want to buy green bricks to build a house. Give him a better price, remember?"

"I remember Dad." Jin Jin nodded solemnly, a little mature.

Su Wan thanked shopkeeper Huang, and followed Jin Jin out of the door.

She is still very grateful to Shopkeeper Huang in her heart. She is only one of his suppliers at best, and she doesn't have a deep friendship. Moreover, she earns a lot of money from him. He can tell his son like this , is really rare.

Although, sometimes this is just some superficial talk, and people may not really give you a discount, but if they are willing to say a few superficial words, it also shows that they think highly of you.

Perhaps, in the future, I can further cooperate with Shopkeeper Huang. After all, he has a wide network and knows many wealthy people, which will provide her with great convenience.

The three of them left Deshun Zhai together, Jin Jin went to hire a carriage, Su Wan rushed to pay the money, after all, she was doing something for her, and she couldn't let others spend the money.

Uncle Huang Jin's blue brick factory is near the mountain in the north of the town. When Su Wan and the others arrived, the workers were making green bricks in full swing.

Su Wan's eyes lit up looking at those blue bricks, as if she saw a spacious and bright house beckoning to her.

"Uncle." Huang Jin yelled at a middle-aged man who was standing on a high place and directing the workers to work.

The man turned his head and saw Jin Jin, and grinned. He jumped down from the high platform, walked over, patted Jin Jin on the shoulder and smiled, "Ah Jin, why are you here?"

Shopkeeper Huang's brother-in-law's surname is Chang Mingshan. Because he is straightforward and kind, he is honored as Boss Chang.

"Uncle, my father asked me to give it to you." Jin Jin handed over the roast duck and dim sum in his hand.

"Brother-in-law still thinks of me, thank you dad for me." Chang Shan took it happily, then looked at Su Wan and Su Qian and asked, "Who are these two?"

"They are my father's friends, and they want to buy blue bricks to build a house, and my father asked you to give me a discount." Jin Jin truthfully relayed Huang Youde's words.

"Oh, so that's the case. I don't know how many green bricks the girl needs." Chang Shan was naturally happy when he heard that the business came, and hurriedly called Su Wan and Su Qian to sit down at a simple stone table, and asked someone to serve it. Here comes the tea.

Su Wan was really thirsty after being busy for a long time, so she was not polite at the moment, picked up the tea bowl and drank half of it at once, then wiped her mouth and said with a smile: "To tell the truth, Boss Chang, I don't know much about this. I came here today to ask Boss Chang for advice."

Seeing Su Wan's polite words, Chang Shan immediately laughed and said, "The girl asked the right person. I wonder how big the yard and how many rooms she wants to build?"

Su Wan thought for a while, then took out the blueprint she drew from her bosom, handed it to Chang Yuan and said, "Boss Chang, take a look, it probably looks like this."

Chang Shan took the drawing and opened it for a closer look, then raised his head and said in astonishment: "Girl, did you draw this picture?"

"Well, is there something wrong?" Su Wan nodded and asked.

"No, no, no, not only is there no problem, it's also wonderful. The layout is very reasonable, but why is the size not marked?" Chang Shan looked up at Su Wan, thinking that this little girl is really not simple, and also knows how to draw.

"This size can only be marked after on-site measurement. I haven't measured it yet." Su Wan smiled a little embarrassedly.

"This is not necessarily the case. You can also estimate the size first, then measure it on the spot according to this size, and then lay the foundation." Chang Shan said with a smile.

"This, I think it's better to measure it on the spot, because I want to build it more spacious." Su Wan thought for a while and said.

"Well, it's okay, but there is no size, and I can't estimate how many blue bricks will be used in total. How about you wait until the size is determined?" Chang Yuan said with some embarrassment.

Su Wan thought for a while and said: "How about this, Boss Chang, I don't know if you will be free tomorrow, if you are free, can you go to Hexi Village with me and help me measure it on the spot. I don't really understand, I want to ask you, an insider, to check it out. Don't worry, I will definitely not let you work in vain. In addition to buying the blue bricks for my entire yard from you, your wages will also be included Count it to you."

After finishing speaking, Su Wan was afraid that he would refuse, so she took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from her pocket and put it on the table, and said with a smile, "This is a deposit for you."

"Oh, Miss, you are so polite." Chang Shan's eyes lit up when he saw the ingot of silver. The blue bricks needed for a whole house are not a small amount, and this is a big deal.

Immediately, he patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, girl, just ask me if you need me, and I promise to do my best for you."

"Then there is Boss Laochang. I heard from Shopkeeper Huang that Boss Chang has an engineering team under his command to build houses for people?" Su Wan asked after thinking about it.

"Yes, the girl wants to contract?" Chang Shan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his wheat-colored face flushed a little with excitement.

If this project can be contracted, the income will be several times higher than that of just selling some green bricks. It is really good to meet a big boss.

I didn't expect such a little girl to have such a big hand, she really can't be judged by her appearance.

"En." Su Wan nodded. She thought about it carefully. If the whole house was contracted out, although it would cost almost twice as much, there would be many benefits.

Firstly, the workers are professional and the quality is guaranteed, and secondly, she will save a lot of trouble.

Farming is about to begin. If you want to ask the villagers to help build a house, let’s not talk about how many people are willing to come. At least I have to manage at least two meals a day. In the situation of their family, she has no place to cook for them.

Moreover, it is inevitable that some people in the village will take the opportunity to make troubles, so she has to take care to be on guard.

If it is contracted to the engineering team, there is another advantage, that is, the speed is fast, and it will definitely be able to live before winter.
