The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Mo Yan remembered that after the house was renovated in his previous life, it usually had to be left open for half a year before people could move in. If their house also had to be left open for half a year, wouldn't it mean that they had to wait until next year before they could move in?

Mo Qingze thought that his daughter was in a hurry to live in a new house, so he smiled and said: "If you are in a hurry, wait until the house is painted and the walls are dry, and then you can add some furniture to live in it. Then choose a good day to warm up the house and invite relatives and friends to liven it up." That’s it. If you’re not in a hurry, just wait until the day of the conservatory to move in.”

So fast? Mo Yan was stunned, and then realized that this was not a modern era where chemicals and various additives were rampant. The paints and lime powder in this era were all naturally processed and did not contain harmful substances such as formaldehyde. You could live here anytime you wanted.

"How long will it take to decorate it? Let's just set a date for the conservatory?" She couldn't wait to move in.

Mo Qingze thought for a while and said, "Our house is a bit big, and it will take half a month to paint it. It will take another half month to dry the walls. In addition, the house must be cleaned carefully. It will take more than a month in total." These days are not suitable.”

It's already May 20th, and the farthest of these good days is only June 28th. It's too late to warm up the house. There are no good days in July, so at least it has to be August.

Mo Yan also thought of this, August will be August, I have been waiting for most of the year, and I don’t care about these three months. However, the house has been built, and it’s time to invite a woodworking shop in the city to come to your home to measure the house and make furniture.

The father and daughter discussed some more details and then went about their own business.

Mo Yan went to each room and took a look. The structure was exactly the same as what she had in mind, and some details were even more perfect with Master Lu's improvement.

She walked around the yard, watched the workers' construction work, and made some suggestions to Master Lu on some areas.

After careful consideration, Master Lu felt that these small suggestions could make the layout of the yard and the house more harmonious, and he would make improvements according to Mo Yan's instructions.

Mo Yan admires people like Master Lu very much. Although he is very accomplished in architecture and is already a master-level figure, he is not stubborn. If he faces the opinions of others, if they are good, he will readily adopt them and sincerely Say thank you; if you feel it is not appropriate, you will patiently explain why it is not possible, which can always make people convinced.

It’s no wonder that in just a few years, Master Lu’s construction team will become famous throughout the capital. People will not even look down on Master Lu because of his status as a mason. I guess in addition to his real ability, he also has a charming personality!

There was nothing else for her to do inside. Mo Yan sat in the hut bored and looked at the ledger compiled by her father. When she saw the total cost of building a house on the last page, she couldn't help but click her tongue.

Although she knew that building a house was a waste of money, she did not expect that it would cost nearly 600 taels just to build a rough one. The largest expenditure was the purchase of bricks, stones and tiles, totaling 400 taels, and the remaining more than 100 taels was paid to the villagers. their wages.

As for Master Lu's wages, they will be paid after the house is built. According to their net worth, they will need at least three hundred taels.

Mo Yan secretly calculated the cost of decoration and subsequent custom-made furniture, and found that it would cost about six hundred taels of silver, which was nearly half of the eight hundred taels she originally budgeted. No wonder she often saw her father sighing at the account book before. It turned out that the money was spent too much.

Fortunately, the family still has some wealth, otherwise as soon as the house is built, the landlord will immediately become a poor peasant. This gap is not too big!

Although the money spent was a bit high, Mo Yan thought it was well worth the expense when she thought about living in a spacious and comfortable house in the future.

Isn't it just about food, clothing, housing and transportation that people work hard in their whole life? If you have the ability to enjoy a high-quality life, why should you compromise yourself?

From Mo Yan's point of view, it doesn't matter if you earn it with your own hands, eat, live, and clothe yourself, as long as you don't squander it recklessly.

"Don't stop me, I must seek justice today! The Mo family has made a fortune and built a big house, but they want to harm their fellow villagers. I want to see if their hearts are evil!"

Just as Mo Yan continued to look through the account books, she heard the noise outside. She vaguely heard the loudest person mentioning the Mo family. She quickly stood up and walked out...
