Chapter 71 Building a House
Of course Feng Jiuyou knew that the village chief was speaking politely, so she continued without a hint of expression on her face:
"If this is where the village chief is, you must be looking for the best one. Let us find it ourselves. If you are not familiar with the place, you will not know if you have been tricked."
Feng Jiuyou's words touched the heart of the village chief, but this little lady can speak.
"Since you said so, I'll help you ask. As for the price, it's thirty cents a day for an ordinary worker, and fifty cents a day for a master. A lunch is guaranteed. If not, an extra five cents a day will be added."
"I want to build that house as soon as possible. Can the village chief find more people? Ordinary workers will be given 40 cents a day, and masters will be given 65 cents a day. Lunch is not included."
Feng Jiuyou is not short of money. Her space is filled with gold, silver and jewelry. This is a courtyard, but it takes a lot of time. She doesn't want to tire everyone in the family just because of a meal.
But when he thought of the gold and silver jewelry in the space, Feng Jiuyou thought of the people in Pingbo Houfu.
You don't need to think about it to know that they are definitely still alive. Even if there is evidence that they are colluding with foreign enemies and forming cliques for personal gain, nothing can be done to them?
If they rebel directly, the evidence is just false, what can be done to them?
But the days are long and there will always be time for revenge.
"Okay, just leave this matter to me, and I will definitely help you get it done."
The village chief said happily that with such high wages, no one in the village would have to go to the county town to find work during the slack period.
It takes at least a month to build this courtyard, which is more than one tael of silver.
Going to the town to work as a coolie would only cost you twenty cash a day.
"Thank you very much to the village chief. Let the village chief use these five taels of silver to prepare some wine."
Seeing that everything was done, Feng Jiuyou planned to get up and go back. He took out a piece of silver and handed it to the village chief.
"What are you doing? As the village chief, how can I take your money for doing this little favor?"
Although he sometimes wanted to collect some things brought by the villagers, he did so tacitly.
When people in the village come to ask you for something, they won't feel relieved if you don't accept it.
"Village Chief, you can't say that. If you go out to help me find someone, you can't do anything else. Just think of it as wine money for the Village Chief."
"Well, since Madam has said so, I will accept it. You said that I would get it done for you as soon as possible, but have you chosen the day to start work?"
The village chief hesitated for a moment and accepted the money.
"Just the day after tomorrow." Feng Jiuyou thought for a while and said.
"Okay, I will help you find someone tomorrow."
Feng Jiuyou exchanged greetings with the village chief for a few more words. When he saw that it was time to eat, he stood up and left.
"This lady is really rich, look at what she's wearing and what she's wearing on her head."
When the village chief's wife saw Feng Jiuyou leaving, she walked into the main room with a sour tone.
"You damn bitch, what are you talking about? Am I in need of food from you, or am I in need of clothes for you to be envious of other people's things?"
The village chief heard this and scolded his wife, Mrs. Li.
When Feng Jiuyou passed by the threshing floor, her three nephews were no longer there.
Thinking that she was going home, she quickened her pace and only walked halfway when she met Wu Lang who was looking for him.
"Auntie, where have you gone? Let me find you in a while."
"Go and have a look around the village."
Feng Jiuyou rubbed Wu Lang's hair, thinking of what he said before, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"Then why didn't I see my aunt?" Wulang wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and asked strangely.
