Chapter 230

The people of Xiejia Village soon knew that Xie Yunjin was going to tear down the old yard and build a new one, which was a big yard made of blue bricks.

Green brick yards are very expensive, so far, there is no such blue brick yard in the entire Xiejia Village.

Don't talk about Xiejia Village, just a few nearby villages, only two or three wealthy families have green brick courtyards, and the rest of them basically have mud wall courtyards.

Not to mention that blue bricks are expensive, and sometimes you can't get them.

The villagers didn't feel jealous when they heard this, because recently every family in the village has made money, even the few families have about ten taels, and the many families have dozens of taels, so no one is jealous of Xie Yunjin, On the contrary, everyone is concerned about how much the green brick yard costs.

"Yun Jin, how much does it cost to build a green brick courtyard?"

The rich people in the village got more or less thoughtful. They waited until they had more money to build a green brick yard, which was much brighter than a mud yard. And if it was built well, the family could live for several lifetimes, and the mud house would last for more than ten years. It cracked and had to be rebuilt.

Although Xie Yunjin knew that green bricks were expensive, he didn't know how much it would cost to build a green brick courtyard, so he responded vaguely.

"It's probably a few tens of taels of silver, depending on how big the green brick yard is."

"If our family accumulates more, we will also build a green brick yard."

"When we successfully breed leeches, we will have income every year in the future, and then every family can build a green brick yard."

What the village chief said made all the villagers happy, and everyone spoke eagerly.

After hearing what the villagers said, Lu Jiao couldn't help but think of the green bricks used to build houses. The cost of green bricks is high, the process is complicated, and the output is small, so they cannot be mass-produced by mechanization, so they are expensive, but the red bricks are relatively simple, and the red bricks Mechanized production can be realized, the production efficiency is high, and the price is cheaper.

It would be pretty good to build a red brick kiln.

Lu Jiao quickly thought of the upcoming oil press, cosmeceuticals, and pharmaceutical workshops.

She'd better save it, these three things are enough to keep her busy, so don't worry about anything else.

In the yard, the village chief turned his head to look at the villagers outside the yard and said, "Yun Jin's yard is too small and needs to be expanded to the east. In the past two days, he plans to ask someone to help lay the foundation. According to my idea, everyone can help. But Yun Jin insisted on paying, and the helper paid 30 Wen a day for a lunch."

As soon as the village chief finished speaking, someone among the villagers shouted: "We don't need money, just take care of lunch."

After saying that, someone stood up and said, "Jiaojiao, let my man lay the foundation for your house, you don't need to pay any more."

As soon as Aunt Osmanthus finished speaking, several people stood up and said they didn't want money.

The Xu family and the Lin family all stood up.

But Xie Yunjin refused. He looked at the villagers inside and outside the fenced yard and said, "It's not easy for everyone. You can't do your work in vain. If you are willing to help, you can do as I said. Each person has 30 Wen a day. If you don't want money for lunch, I don't want to bother everyone."

Xie Yunjin said so, and the villagers didn't insist any more, but they were all happy in their hearts. It's a good thing to have money and take care of lunch.

For a while, many people crowded into Xie's small courtyard asking for help.

Not only the villagers, Xie Laogen, Xie Daqiang, Xie Erzhu, and Xie Yunhua from Xie's house all came to help.

Xie Yunjin didn't refuse either, as long as he worked hard, he didn't care who was who.

In the end, Xie Yunjin ordered twenty people to help lay the foundation.

Nowadays, when ramming foundations in rural areas, big tree stumps are cut into cylinders, and ropes are hooped, and several people around throw the cylinders up to let them fall freely, so as to achieve the purpose of ramming the foundations.

When Lu Jiao saw this, she quickly thought that in the 1960s and 1970s, countrymen used large stone rollers to ram the foundation. The foundation rammed by stone rollers must be much more solid than that made by wood.

Lu Jiao didn't want to care about this at first, but after thinking about it, this is the place where the four little guys will live in the future. If it can be built better, it will be good.

After thinking about it, she called Xie Yunjin to the side and whispered: "I think the foundation made of wood is not as strong as that made of stone."

Xie Yunjin knew Lu Jiao's real identity, so as soon as she said it, he guessed that this was probably the way Lu Jiao and the others rammed the foundation in their place. However, the foundation made by ramming stones must be stronger than that made of wood. It's just how to do it.

Xie Yunjin looked at Lu Jiao and said, "How can such a smooth stone be used to ram the foundation?"

Lu Jiao gestured and said: "Find a stone with a hole, put a rope through the hole, each person who rams the foundation pulls a rope, and under the guidance of the leader, throws it into the air with all their strength, and then smashes it down. It is as solid as rammed wood."

As soon as Lu Jiao said it, Xie Yunjin understood that the method of ramming the stone is the same as that of the wood, but it may not be easy to find a stone with holes.

But the method Lu Jiao said is indeed much better than the method made out of rammed wood.

Xie Yunjin decided to ask a few people to go up the mountain to find such a stone.

"I'll ask a few people to go up the mountain to see if they can find such a stone."

Lu Jiao nodded. In fact, there was a hand drill in her space, but she couldn't take it out in front of Xie Yunjin, so she decided to go up the mountain to see if she could find any rocks with holes. Find a way to drill a few holes with a hand drill.

"I went up the mountain with them to find out."

After Lu Jiao finished speaking, she got up and was about to arrange lunch, Xie Yunjin reached out to stop her, and said: "Be careful when you go up the mountain."

After Xie Yunjin finished speaking, she was stunned for a while, and Lu Jiao was also stunned for a moment, and then responded: "I will be careful."

After the two of them finished talking, they turned around and were about to do something, but the villagers' chatter and laughter came from behind them.

"Dabao, seeing how good your parents are, do you want your parents to give you a younger sister?"

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao quickly turned their heads to look at the joker.

Today, in addition to the people who helped lay the foundation, there were also a few daughters-in-law of the villagers who volunteered to help clean up the yard and help Lu Jiao make lunch at the same time.

At this time, several women were teasing the four little guys, the four little guys were so happy when they heard that, all the four little guys grinned and said.

"I think, whether it's a younger brother or a younger sister, we will love him very much and love him very much."

"I would give my brother and sister my toys and play with them."

"I'll dress her and feed her."

"When I grow up, I earn money to spend for my younger sister, and buy delicious and fun things for my younger sister."

When the four little guys said that, all the villagers laughed, and the women couldn't help but praised: "Oh, the little guys are really sensible, and your younger siblings will be blessed in the future."

"Yeah, these four really look good."

After everyone finished talking, they looked up and saw Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao looking over, and immediately joked: "Yun Jin, Yun Jin's wife, you have to work hard to give birth to younger brothers and sisters for the four little guys, see how much they want younger brothers and sisters .”

The four little ones immediately turned their heads to look at Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao expectantly, and also nodded their little heads in cooperation.

That's right, they want younger brothers and sisters. If they have younger brothers and sisters, it means that the relationship between father and mother is good, and mother will definitely not leave in the future. This is what grandma said.
