Once you become a boy, marry a good man, and become rich together

Chapter 118 Adding Staff Rooms

The team of troops that Lin Jingsheng led on the battlefield before were all spread all over Dashun. Generally speaking, many of them had their homes in Yongzhou Prefecture. However, when they arrived in Yongzhou, they all dispersed, and no one knew the specific location of their homes.

Jiang Ci looked straight at Lin Jingsheng, "I think buying someone is feasible."

Lin Jingsheng saw Jiang Ci standing there in a daze just now, and thought that Jiang Ci could not accept this kind of human transaction.

He and Jiang Ci had slept in the same bed for such a long time and they knew each other best.

Jiang Ci was the person with the best character he had ever met, and his attitude towards some things was also particularly novel.

Treat everyone with the same attitude, including the waiters in the shops and the beggars on the street.

"It's not that I don't want to, I just didn't expect there is such a method."

Jiang Ci continued, "This method is also good. No matter who you find, they will have to live here and build houses near the factory. We might as well find the safest one and treat them the same as the people working here. I think we have saved them once."

Jiang Ci thought very clearly. He had traveled through time, so what could he not accept?

It is an established fact that human beings can be bought and sold, but he does not treat the people he buys harshly, which may be a kind of salvation for them.

"Then build a few staff rooms in the back."

"The staff room is a good name."

Jiang Ci remembered that every time they transported the soap to the town, they rented an ox cart from the village. If there was more soap in the future and they had to transport it to the town again and again, it would be troublesome to just rent an ox cart, so they might as well buy another ox.

"Let's buy another cow and feed it to the soap factory. It can be used to make soap. Besides, it can be used in the future anyway."

"I plan to build more staff rooms. Our future business will need to be kept confidential, so we will definitely need more people."

"I've thought of that, too. So, have you thought about how to build these houses?"

"Behind the soap factory, we built two rows of buildings in the east-west direction. We built two kitchens and two water rooms on the east side, and left a larger space on the west side for the cowshed and hay storage. We left a road in the middle. During this time, we also needed to find someone to make the beds and necessary tables, chairs and benches."

"Build a small room or a large room?"

"A small room, two people in one."

"Then their living conditions are really good."

"You can't say that. Maybe those people will live here forever."

"Too."

"Tomorrow morning, go to town and find a painter to draw all the patterns you want."

The two of them started to get busy.

Jiang Ci took his charcoal pencil and wrote and drew on the paper. He would first make a rough sketch and then let the painter make the detailed drawings.

There are still many differences between modern simple drawings and paintings of this dynasty. The biggest difference is the difference in form and spirit.

The soap they made could never convey the spirit of the subject, and the shape was still the main focus.

Lin Jingsheng went out and found a few old men in the village who were skilled in carpentry, and asked them to prepare the wood and start the work tomorrow.

Find other people who are free and can do carpentry work and ask them to help make tables, chairs and benches.

He went to the village that sold adobe bricks with Lin Shan, bought some bricks, and agreed that the bricks would be delivered the next morning.

He took some malt sugar, eggs, a dozen bars of soap, put five taels of silver in the basket, and went to the village chief's house.

Seeing so many things in the basket, the village chief agreed readily.

"Okay, whenever you have time, just take people to the mountains to chop wood. It's nothing for a whole village to follow you to make money. If you have any problems in the future, don't bring these things with you."

After Lin Jingsheng left, the village chief's wife took out the things in the basket and saw five taels of silver under the oil paper wrapping the candy.

He quickly put the candy in his hand on the table, turned back and shouted towards the door, "Old man! Old man! Come here quickly."

"What's the matter? You're in a hurry."

"Here..." Pointing at the silver, "Why is there still silver in here?"

When the village chief heard her words, he came over immediately and saw the five taels of silver in the basket.

After looking for a while, he sighed.

"Tomorrow you go to town and buy a few bags of brown sugar, and give two bars of soap and a bag of brown sugar to each of the elders. Oh, by the way! Forget about the soap for Uncle Six, give a few eggs instead."

……

Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng sat on the donkey cart and slowly went home, with Jiang Ci holding a few pieces of paper in his hand.

The wind blew away page after page, and the contents of the drawings on the paper became clear: a few leaves, a chrysanthemum, a peach blossom in full bloom, and maple leaves. In the lower right corner of each of them was the Qingyunfang logo.

"Send these to them when you get home, and type them out quickly."

"It's time to start the construction of the house over there. Let's go to the county together tomorrow, buy some fat pork, and visit Ren Yazi while we're there."

"Are you going to buy it back tomorrow? We still have no place to live."

"Today, we can sleep outside. It's cool. It's time to harvest corn. We haven't started making soap yet, so let's harvest the corn in the field first."

"Okay, then we should buy a few people."

"Buy five."

As soon as I got off the donkey cart, I saw Lin Xi walking towards me from the south intersection, and Ye Shuyun who had just walked out of the door.

Jiang Ci stuffed the papers in her hand into Lin Jingsheng's hand and jumped off the carriage, "Ah Sheng, just send these papers out. I'm leaving first."

Several people arrived at Ye Shuyun's yard.

Lin Xi played with the running bird and said, "This thing is really magical."

It was a gift that Jiang Ci brought back for them from the city. When they turned the handle next to it, the bird moved forward step by step.

The little bird walked to the table and stopped.

"Aci, what have you been busy with recently? Now that you're back from the capital, I want to hear about what you've seen and heard in the capital."

"Then it's not too late for me to tell you now."

Jiang Ci told them the most interesting things, and half an hour passed as they talked and laughed.

"Next time we are free, we can go to the capital city together."

"Okay!"

Ye Shuyun went into the house and poured them a glass of water. "We've been talking for so long, have a drink of water."

"Feng and I are planning to build a new house soon."

Jiang Ci and Lin Xi placed their cups on the table in unison, making neat clattering sounds.

"Build a house! We're going to build a new house."

Clearly surprised.

Jiang Ci then asked, "When will it be built? Where will it be built?"

Ye Shuyun took a sip of tea and said, "Don't be impatient. Listen to me and I will explain it slowly."

"Okay, then you tell me."

Ye Shuyun looked at the two people sitting in a row next to her and wanted to laugh.

"We are planning to buy a piece of land at the west end of the village behind the row of houses. Ah Feng and I have already looked at that piece of land. It is quite suitable and has a large area.

I will buy that piece of land in the next two days, and after planting the wheat, I will find someone to build a house."

"Build a brick and tile house?"
