Chapter 37 Buying the Village Yard

Patriarch Shen found an old blue brick house next to the ancestral hall in the center of the village. It belonged to an uncle who had gone out of town.

He specially asked his granddaughter to ask Mrs. Liu to get the land deed and go to see the house.

Mrs. Liu took Shen Yunyao with her. Shen Yunyao quietly took out the lower alcohol liquor from the space and poured it into a bamboo tube and took it with her.

She originally wanted to bring famous wine, but in the end she didn't dare to bring high-alcohol wine, because later she thought that wine with that high alcohol content would easily highlight her abnormality.

When they arrived at the clan leader's house, after Liu received the land deed, Shen Yunyao offered bamboo tube wine for the clan leader to taste.

Modern low-alcohol liquor has a higher alcohol content than the wine at this time. The wine at this time is a bit turbid.

The clan leader was puzzled when he saw that the liquid in the bamboo tube looked like white water but exuded the fragrance of wine.

He took a sip, and a spicy taste went down his throat, but it left a mellow taste in his mouth.

Good wine!

Where did this wine come from? It doesn’t exist in this area.

He opened his mouth to ask, but then he thought, this thing may not be that good. The child uses it to honor himself, so he won't break the casserole and ask to the end, which is just annoying.

So, he said with a smile: "What a good wine! Ayao, if you are interested, I will take you to see the house. Yesterday you said you wanted to rent a house, so I looked at the vacant houses one by one, and the one I picked was the most suitable. The rent is every One hundred words per month."

Shen Yunyao thought to herself, the clan leader is really an elder worthy of respect.

She asked, "Is this place for sale?" It would be easier if she could buy it.

"You want to buy it? The price is not cheap. His price is fifty taels."

Liu said: "Let's take a look first and then decide."

The house has not been repaired for a long time, and weeds have grown on the roof, walls and yard. Fortunately, the tiles and house are in good condition, and there is no need to repair the house. The whole yard looks 70% new.

There are a total of six rooms in the yard, three in the north, one in the east, two in the west, and a fence and gate in the south. There is a small vegetable garden in the west behind the north house, a livestock shed is built next to the fence in the east, and a pigsty is built next to the fence in the north. and chicken coop.

Shen Yunyao thought to herself that if she didn't want to build a more desirable house, she would really want to live here.

The clan leader said: "This house was built two years ago and has only been empty for a year. The clan's uncle's son has made a living doing business outside, so the family moved away. Before leaving, the clan's uncle gave this house to his brother. The land deed is in the hands of the clan uncles and brothers."

Mrs. Liu was very satisfied with the house. She asked the clan leader to find someone on the spot, paid the counteroffer, and bought the house for forty-five taels.

When Mrs. Liu took out the money, Shen Yunyao found that her mother's purse was just an old cloth bag. She wanted to make a backpack for Mrs. Liu. Now that she has learned embroidery skills, it is not difficult to make a bag.

After seeing off the clan leader and his party, Mrs. Liu asked Shen Yunyao to take the land deed home, along with a sickle, a hoe, and a broom.

The two of them cleaned up for a long time, and the house looked brand new inside and outside.

When the hired female workers came here with their things, they couldn't help but sigh, the people in Shen Laosan's family are really down-to-earth and generous!

"Ayao's family must have made a lot of money, otherwise such a good yard can be rented at any time."

"If you want to make a lot of money, shouldn't you just buy whatever you want?"

"Yes, yes. Maybe this is the house I bought."

"With such a good house for sale, why don't they live in it themselves? Instead, let us work here."

The young women and girls were talking a lot.

Anyone who can't bear their curiosity can ask Shen Yunyao directly.

Shen Yunyao looked at the group of people with a half-smile and said: "Whether this house is rented or bought, arranging for you to come here is equivalent to improving the place for you to work. If you think this place is too good, it is easy for you to have random thoughts, If you can't work without peace of mind, then I will grant you a favor and arrange you in my home. I will come here with my family."

She actually asked Ms. Liu why she didn't live here, and Ms. Liu said she missed the past.

"No, no, no, it's nice here. We'll work faster here!"

"Yes. We must work better than before."

Shen Yunyao said with a smile: "Okay. Then stay. Now we are divided into two groups, and the management is divided into people. The two groups will compare the number of qualified products they make every day. One group has more than a hundred more than the other group. To win. If you win more than fifteen times, each person in this group will be awarded fifty coins that month."

A girl raised her hand, blushed, and asked weakly: "What is the product?"

Shen Yunyao coughed lightly and said, "It refers to the things you make at hand."

Alas, it is easy to use modern terms accidentally, so you have to be careful.

She asked Ms. Fang to arrange for the two groups to go to the two rooms on the west side respectively, and arrange for the people who made the finished products to be in the east room. She also took out a few locks from the space and replaced them for each room. She handed over spare keys to the east and west rooms and the door. Give it to Fang.

Mrs. Liu is happily reclaiming wasteland, planning to tidy up the vegetable garden again and plant vegetables.

After Shen Yunyao arranged these things, she returned to her old house and asked the robot to check the differences between brick-burning and porcelain kilns, and improved it. It printed out the design drawings of brick-burning and porcelain kilns, and took out pen, ink and paper from the space. Inkstone, follow the drawing.

All the lengths marked in the painting were converted into the commonly used scale here.

She spent two more shop decoration design drawings and planned to give them to Shen Gaoguo for him to decorate.

She first went to the clan leader's house and handed the drawings to the clan leader.

The patriarch asked her to wait a moment and asked his granddaughter to call a few people.

The patriarch introduced them one by one, and then introduced Shen Yunyao to them. He said to one of the men, who was about seventeen or eighty years old: "Xiaosi, didn't the kiln you were at close down a few days ago? Now our village is going to To build a kiln, why don’t you go out to look for work and just work in the village kiln.”

Shen Yunbei said: "Okay, I'm a young apprentice anyway. It doesn't matter where I work. I'm close to home and can still take care of my family."

When Shen Yunyao heard this, she thought if there was a ready-made kiln, why not buy it to save time on building the kiln? She didn't know if the kiln was far away from here.

Finally, she couldn't help but ask: "Brother, where is the kiln? Is it far from the village? Has it been sold? How much does it cost to buy this kiln?"

"It's on the edge of the county town, not far from the village. The bricks in this kiln don't burn well, and the bricks break easily into slag, so fewer and fewer people buy them. I don't know if any of them were sold when I went home. I heard people say you need at least one thousand taels to buy it."

Shen Yunyao said quickly: "Brother, are you free these two days? How about you take me with you?"

"sure!"

The patriarch looked unhappy and said, "Girl Yao, do you mean there won't be a playground in the village?"

Shen Yunyao hurriedly explained: "I think there is something ready-made, and we can save time. The recruitment of workers must be very tight for the villagers. Although the cost has increased, we can make it back soon. If you spend money to buy it, I will pay the majority."

The patriarch's face softened and he said: "Then let's go and take a look first, maybe what's going on over there. So what do you do with this picture?"

Shen Yunyao asked: "Grandpa Patriarch, what do you think we should do about this matter? I'll keep this picture here for now."

The patriarch took a sip of water and said, "I heard from Xiaosi that the kiln's business was not good because the bricks it made were brittle, and the bricks were not fired well. It may be because the kiln was not built well, or it may be because the kiln fired the master. If the temperature is not properly grasped, it is more likely that the bricks will come out of the kiln at the wrong time. I don’t know much about kiln firing, so I can say a few things about this.”

He paused and then said: "So there are advantages to building your own kiln. Aren't the things on your drawings inherited? It's better than that kiln. Of course, the disadvantage is that you have to find a place, and you have to find a place. Take the time to build a site and think about it yourself.”

He could see that the initiative was actually in Shen Yunyao's hands, and he didn't mind the young people trying to get in.

When Shen Yunyao was in modern times, other companies could make a lot of money by cooperating with her, and she had never opened a company.

At this time, she didn't have much experience to draw on, she just knew roughly what to do.

The patriarch was right, but she had overlooked it.
