Chapter 69 69 House Construction Plan

   Qin Xiaoyao smiled and reached out and patted her mother-in-law's arm.

   "Don't worry, I have confidence in preserved eggs."

   Seeing that Liu Shi's expression was still worried, Qin Xiaoyao said again: "The cost is controlled within six taels of silver. After the first batch of preserved eggs is sold and makes money, the follow-up will be easy."

   Liu Shi was surprised.

  Six taels?

   looked at Qin Xiaoyao.

   Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

   "We will pay the cost of 6 taels to collect the eggs. After a month, the profit will be at least doubled. By then, by selling preserved eggs, our family will be able to earn at least 6 taels a month."

   Liu Shi and Song Yun were already stunned.

   "When the preserved egg business starts, I will pay back the money I owe my father, and then our family will save money to build a house."

   This time, all three of the mothers were shocked.

   "Build the house after the fall, and build the house before it gets cold. This way, our family will no longer have to worry about this winter."

  Lingquan Town will snow after the winter, and there will also be blizzards.

   There is a lot of snow, and the beams of the grass hut may not be able to hold up.

   It happened in the past years. Some villagers' houses were crushed by snow. She didn't want such a thing to happen to their family.

   "Besides, Yun'er and Ye'er are both grown up, so it's not convenient for them to live in the same house with their mother all the time. The house was built, just for them to live alone."

   is a grass hut, and the rooms in their house are very limited now.

   Yun'er now shares a bed with her mother-in-law, while Ye'er has a separate bed, but is placed in her mother-in-law's room.

   There is only a straw curtain between the two beds. Privacy is almost nonexistent.

  The matter of building a house must be resolved sooner or later.

   Liu's heart trembled.

   "It takes a lot of money to build a house." He stammered.

  Building a house, they discussed this matter before their father died.

  But their family was in better condition at the time, so they were unable to put together the money for building the house.

   Now that the family has all the fields, the daughter-in-law has a plan.

   Moreover, she felt that her daughter-in-law had hope that she could make it happen.

   Qin Xiaoyao raised the corner of his mouth.

   "Building a house, there are expensive ways to build, and there are cheap ways to build."

   "However, the house has to live for decades after it is built. I want to build it as well as possible, and do it in one step, so as not to waste money on subsequent renovations and reconstructions.

   "Then... how much does that cost?" Liu Shi was excited and asked.

   "Well... If you want to build a large brick and tile, at least a hundred taels."

   She hadn't actually inquired about it, but the purchasing power of one hundred taels of silver converted into pre-apocalyptic purchasing power was almost equal to one hundred thousand yuan.

  In the case of building houses in rural areas, many materials can be dug from the mountains, and then it is cheaper to hire people to build houses. Maybe one hundred taels of silver can be done.

   Of course, if it doesn’t work, it’s okay to adjust the target at that time.

   In short, set the goal there first, and she will try to make money first.

   "Hundred-hundred taels?" Liu's eyes widened.

   She discussed with the children and their father before, and only calculated forty-five taels of silver at most.

  Daughter-in-law this—

   "It doesn't need to be built so well. According to the wooden structure of the house next door, if you build seven or eight rooms, it is estimated that forty or fifty taels of silver may be enough." Liu Shi reminded.

   "Let's see the situation. When the time comes, if you have more money, you can build it better. If you don't have enough money, you can also build a house with a wooden structure." Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu Shi with a smile and comforted him.

   But what I thought in my mind was that since it is going to be built, it must be better built.

   It’s only now April, and if construction starts in September, there are still about five months left.

   If she worked harder and the whole family worked hard together, it was not impossible to save enough money to build a house.

   "Okay." Mrs Liu responded and nodded.

   At the same time, she made up her mind. Next, she has to be more diligent and take her daughter-in-law to cooperate with her daughter-in-law.

That night.

   As soon as Qin Xiaoyao entered the room, Song Que looked at her.

   After more than half a month of conditioning, Song Que's legs are much better now, her spirit is also much better, and her attitude towards her is much better.

   And Qin Xiaoyao, after exerting his strong adaptability, is no longer as easy to lose his temper in front of Song Que as before.

   "Xiang Gong—" Qin Xiaoyao shouted, and smiled at Song Que.

  Song Que waved at her naturally.

   "Why is it so late tonight?" There was some concern when he spoke.

   "Oh, the fishing net was almost finished, and I weaved it together with my mother and the others for a while."

   After speaking, Qin Xiaoyao went to the bedside.

   Then blow the lamp and go to bed.

   "Go ahead, it's time to talk about the daughter country." He continued.

  Song Que propped himself up a bit, but quickly lay down. Just listen to the story.

   Qin Xiaoyao began to tell the story.

   "It is said that the master and apprentice of Sanzang said goodbye to the village family, and went westward along the road, not thirty or forty li, and finally reached the border of Xiliang..."

  In the dark of night, Qin Xiaoyao's voice is particularly nice and fascinating.

  Song Que was soon immersed in Qin Xiaoyao's story.

  After half an hour, Qin Xiaoyao said that when Tang Seng and his disciples bid farewell to the king of the daughter country and continued westward, Song Que even felt a sense of loss.

"In Journey to the West, Tang Seng and his apprentice went through ninety-nine-eighty-one hardships before finally obtaining the scriptures. Everyone in the world says that this is the easiest test to pass in the country of the daughter. What do you think?" Suddenly, Qin Xiaoyao asked. asked.

  Song Que was stunned for a moment, and recovered from his sullenness.

   His eyes moved.

   "No—isn't it?" After a long time, he replied.

   Qin Xiaoyao turned his head and looked in the direction of Song Que for the first time in the dark night.

  Unfortunately, she has good eyesight, but she didn't see any more expressions than doubts on Song Que's face.

   was a little disappointed.

   Immediately, Qin Xiaoyao turned his head back.

   "Yes. It's time to sleep." He said lightly.

   Then, he closed his eyes.

  Song Que suddenly suffocated in his heart, and a strange sense of guilt rose up from the bottom of his heart.

   turned over and closed his eyes.

   After dawn.

   When Song Que opened his eyes and woke up, Qin Xiaoyao was no longer there.

   And after that, Qin Xiaoyao didn't come to help him wash up.

After asking   , I found out that Qin Xiaoyao had already set off to town with Li Da Niu.

   Hearing the sister rambled to herself, saying that her sister-in-law planned to build a house for her family after the fall, Song Que was a little surprised.

   After being shocked, I found that the guilt in my heart was stronger.

   After Song Yun left, Song Que thumped the bed angrily.

  Damn, such a big thing, that woman didn't tell him last night? !

   At this time, Qin Xiaoyao, who had delivered the goods from Fukuo, didn't know this.

   She packed some straw sandals for Daniu Li and asked her to help bring the straw sandals to Qin Dazhuang and Aunt Li, then pushed the scooter and took the remaining straw sandals to Nanshi.

  Yes, she is now in the city and no longer goes to the West Market to sell straw sandals.

   is mainly to reduce the competition with their own father and Aunt Li.

   In Lingquan Town, the South City and the North City are actually very lively.

  She went to these two markets to sell goods in turn, and the straw sandals were selling quite fast.
