Chapter 28 Purchasing Timber(2/2)

"Let's have dinner when Chuanwu comes back." After a few people left, Zhu Kaishan continued: "Chuanwen, come here, I have something to tell you."

"Dad, what's going on?"

Zhu Chuanwen raised his buttocks and sat on the kang, and got a cup of tea. Zhu Kaishan obviously had something serious to talk about.

"In the spring of next year, our family will build a house, and the lumber needs to be prepared in advance. During this period, there is nothing going on at home. Let's go out and go to the nearby mountain farm to find out where the lumber is at the right price and order some.

Send the wood as soon as possible."

During this period of time, Zhu Kaishan did not do anything.

After sending back the gold distributed to each family and the contact person.

Zhu Kaishan was busy with the matter of purchasing property for Lao Zhu's family.

In autumn, we must seize the time to open up wasteland and buy land.

Now we have started to prepare for building a house again.

Although there are many forests in the Northeast, they do not belong to individuals.

Except for those around the villages that belonged to the villagers, the other forests actually belonged to the Manchu and Qing government.

Lao Zhu's family is not prepared to continue to be a gangster. Naturally, they can't just cut down the forest at will like the bandits. They still have to purchase wood through formal channels.

Although Lao Zhu's family wants to build a large house with a courtyard within a courtyard, it needs a lot of wood.

But ordinary wood in the Northeast is not valuable, and a large part of the price of the wood comes from the labor of the lumberjacks in the mountain field, which Lao Zhu's family is responsible for.

"It's okay, Dad, let me get ready and we can go together." After thinking for a while, Zhu Chuanwen continued: "Actually, I can do this alone. It's okay for you to rest at home."

Zhu Chuanwen was actually quite familiar with it.

The mountain farms of this era were actually modern forest farms.

The mountain farm took the lead and contracted a forest area through the Manchu and Qing government.

Cutting down in winter is also due to the ice and snow in winter and the low friction on the ground, making it relatively easy to transport large trees out of the forest.

After spring begins, it will be difficult to transport large trees in the forest.

These lumberjacks can transform into river workers on the spot.

By tying the wood into rafts, the wood is transported to various locations through rivers for sale.

This is a very complete process.

This industry is so mature mainly because of the feudal emperors and nobles.

There was a need for large-scale construction projects. Very early on, there was no wood for building big houses and halls in areas that were easy to harvest.

We need to go deep into the woods and Southeast Asia to purchase wood.

It’s not surprising that the logging industry’s processes have become so mature over a long period of time.

"Let's go together and walk back as quickly as possible."

Zhu Kaishan thought about it and decided to go out together.

Maybe I'm still not so reassured by Zhu Chuanwen's experience in the world of martial arts.

"Dad, the road in this forest is so difficult, why do you have to come out with me?"

The result of the vast territory and sparse population in the Northeast is that it is only a few hundred and eighty kilometers away.

Traveling outside in winter is naturally not a comfortable thing.

Although it was not as difficult and uninhabited as when the two of them went to Laojingou, the process was not pleasant either.

If Lao Zhu's family hadn't bought too much land, the farm work would be very heavy next year.

If you need to help the long-term workers as soon as possible and prepare a place to live.

There is no need to be in such a hurry to build a house. If the wood is ordered with the mountain field in spring and summer, the time will be much easier.

"What does this mean? If you don't live a good life for two days, you will forget the hardships you endured."

Zhu Kaishan scolded Zhu Chuanwu, he is still a very strong person.

"I can't stand it. I'm worried that you can't stand it. You've been living a peaceful life for a few days this year. Can your body be able to bear it?"

Zhu Chuanwen retorted to Zhu Kaishan.

Zhu Kaishan looks as strong as an ox, but he has suffered many injuries.

My body isn't that good either, and it's nothing until the injury doesn't recur.

But when an old injury relapsed, no matter how strong Zhu Kaishan was, he still had to lie on the kang.

"Stop talking so much, let's find a town or village to rest for a while."

The two of them had just been walking for two days, and they seemed a little lost.

It cannot be said that I am lost, the general direction is definitely correct.

Both Zhu Kaishan and Zhu Chuanwen have this confidence.

But there was no gathering place in the residential area, and there was no place to rest and reorganize.

Before we could see the sky, it snowed unexpectedly. Going out in the wind and snow was not comfortable.
