After dressing as a superb old woman, I am bound to the power system

Qiao Lan redeemed the cement prescription rewarded by the system. The whole process was like opening a document.

She glanced at the table above, which was very detailed and introduced seven or eight types of cement for different uses, including indoor, outdoor, and road construction and decoration, all kinds of different.

After all, the old house of the Duan family has been renovated, and the loess in the yard is covered with a lot of gravel and fine sand, so it is not considered muddy.

Qiao Lan couldn't think of the use of this recipe for a while. It could only be stored in the system and used to build a new house in the future.

After the house is built, it's naturally time to settle the wages.

Qiao Lan gave the money to Takeshiro and others according to the originally agreed price.

The two houses were built small and next to each other. They were not as big as an ordinary house in the village. Because there was a fire path underneath, a spacious chicken coop and a wide circle were built next to it.

The earthen walls required a lot of effort.

Including several stoves in the old house, the total cost was less than three taels.

Qiao Lan took out the broken silver from the money box and handed it to Uncle Sun.

Looking at the small amount of money in the box, Qiao Lan could only sigh, spending money is much easier than making money.

Wu Shilang stood in the Duan family yard and took the silver from Uncle Sun, the smile on his face became more and more eager.

The Duan family does not have a lot of work, and there is little oil and water, but in Takeshiro's view, the Duan family is undoubtedly the most comfortable family he has seen in these years of working.

I went to the village to build a house for the country people, and I was stared at every day. When it came time to buy sand, gravel, and rubble, the owner usually saved as much as he could. If the purchase was expensive, there were even suspicions that he had made a profit from the difference. In the end, he rarely paid for the work.

It can be settled in one go, but some have to ask for it for half a year. He can understand that life in the country is difficult for people in the country.

Although you don't have so many concerns about working in a wealthy family, most of the housekeepers and servants of Yuanwai's family look at people through their noses. They themselves were sold into slavery, but they look down on their craftsmen.

The steward of the Duan family treats people kindly and does not rush them. He occasionally comes over to see them and brings them water and food. He also pays them easily. Thinking of this, Wu Shiro remembered what people had mentioned in the past few days. The late master of the Duan family was once

An official in the capital.

After all, this is a family that has produced high-ranking officials, so it’s no wonder that they treat people and things differently from ordinary people.

Thinking about these things, Wu Shiro's face became even warmer, and he saluted happily to Uncle Sun: "Thank you for your help, Sun is in charge! Come to me if you have any work in the future, and I will definitely handle it for you!"

Uncle Sun greeted the craftsmen in a circle and saw them off.

The chicken coop was built behind the Duan family's old house. As soon as Uncle Sun turned around, he could see the loess wall on the hillside. He didn't know why the old lady went to so much trouble to build a chicken coop, but Uncle Sun was a man of duty.

As a person, you can do whatever your master tells you to do without asking any questions.

"Old madam, all those craftsmen have left." Uncle Sun entered the room to report.

Qiao Lan was keeping accounts in the house. She had just finished recording the expenses for building the house. She looked at the dozen or so coins left in the box, her eyes paused on it for a moment, and she remembered something.

Qiao Lan: "Manager Sun, you called everyone in the family."

Uncle Sun leaned over and nodded, "Yes, old lady, I will call you masters right now."

After everyone was gathered, Qiao Lan got down to business. She called a group of people over to give them money.

When I was still in the capital, in addition to the monthly expenses of the palace, all the masters in the house had monthly silver. If a daughter-in-law was pregnant, she would be given some silver every month. The child would have monthly silver when he was born. In addition,

, a nanny and a maid must also be arranged.

Nowadays, the Duan family does not have much money. Each of Qiao Lan's daughters-in-law was given eighty copper coins, which is plus monthly money.

When they arrived at Duan Mingjing's place, Qiao Lan rummaged through the table and found a piece of paper, "I'll do the math, you spend your days chopping wood."

Duan Mingjing had been chopping firewood for more than twenty days. Even if it rained, it was still less than twenty days.

"A basket of this firewood won't fetch a penny in the city..." Qiao Lan calculated.

After final comparison, Qiao Lan calculated the number and said, "I'll give you twenty, just keep it."

Duan Mingjing listened to this for a long time without coming back to his senses. Twenty Wen?

"Mom, is there something missing?" Duan Mingjing asked in a low voice, looking aggrieved.

Qiao Lan counted the coins in her hand and suddenly raised her head, "How about you drag the cart and sell the firewood to the county, and all the money will be yours?"

Hearing this, Duan Mingjing immediately did not dare to say anything. He lowered his head and said, "Mom, my son has realized his mistake. I will accept all the sons I gave him."

From Duan Mingjing's point of view, he has done a lot of work, so why do he get so little money here?

Duan Mingqing has been traveling around the county in recent days and only comes home at night. In addition, he does not work for the family, so he does not have a share in the money. Mrs. Liu only received the money for herself and her two daughters.

When it was Duan Mingchen's turn, everyone saw the old lady sitting at the table doing calculations. When she raised her head, she suddenly said, "Chen'er, if you teach the children at home to read and read, you will save the money to hire a husband. I will always do it."

I'll give you the money to invite the gentleman, whatever it is, you can save it yourself."

As she said that, the old lady handed over a bunch of copper coins, which looked at no less than seventy or eighty cents, which made Duan Mingjing's eyes go straight.

Duan Mingchen took it respectfully, weighed it in his hands and said, "Mom, this is too much!"

In Duan Mingchen's view, what he did was not a big deal. He just taught his nephews and nieces at home to read. He couldn't spend so much money.

"Mom, why don't you keep it for me? I'll ask you for the money when the time comes." Duan Mingchen said. Now that the family has not found any income, the old lady has spent so much money on him. This is not good.

Great.

Qiao Lan had no intention of taking it back.

Qiao Lan: "Keep it yourself, you can find a money box to put it in. If the box can't fit in it, come to my old lady's place to exchange it for some silver. This is your money. You will need it if you want to take the imperial examination or get a wife in the future. You

You have to save it yourself, you can’t expect me to prepare everything for you.”

Duan Mingchen nodded after hearing this, "Mother, my son knows."

Apart from Duan Mingchen, the younger members of the Duan family are also rich.

This is why Qiao Lan called them all over.

A group of children at home helped with the work. Four girls, three boys, and Qiao Lan were each given wages ranging from three to one penny. The older ones who could do the work were given a few more pence. Duan Yutao, who was younger, did the work.

Few, only one article.

Each child has their monthly money. Qiao Lan divided this monthly money into the hands of several daughters-in-law. Feiyan’s Qiao Lan gave it to the Wang family. But the monthly money is different from the wages. They paid for it with their own hands.

Come.

Each child held the money handed out by Qiao Lan and was very happy.

In addition to the descendants of the Duan family, there are also uncle Sun and his son.

Qiao Lan took a look around the account book to make sure there was nothing missing, and then told her family, "Put it all away, don't drop it, I won't replace it for you if you drop it."
