v3 Chapter 29： let go, build a house

Dong Yunlan looked at everything in the cave seriously, and found that there was no memory of the past, and Dong Chenghu made a partition in the cave and placed some tools.

Dong Yunlan sighed and walked out of the cave with a little sadness. From today, she will really say goodbye to the past, to the poor Dong family when she was a child, and to the red silk in the temple. From today onwards, She is just Dong Yunlan of the Dong family.

After thinking about it all, Dong Yunlan suddenly let go, feeling like a vast sea .

Yang Yi watched her work from a distance, smiled, and followed suit.

After the kiln is built, it will be fired for a day and a night to ensure that there is no moisture inside before the bricks can be fired.

Dong Yi, who went to the mountain to cut wood, also brought the wood back one after another, and put them all in the valley to dry. At this time, Dong Chenghu began to teach everyone how to make bricks by throwing adobe.

There are many people and great strength, but in one day, the entire Cuizhu Mountain is almost covered with bricks, and these bricks will take about three days to be sent to the kiln for firing. It will take about six or seven days before and after it comes out, and I am afraid that it will take another seven or eight days before the beams can be erected. In this way, I can probably lay the tiles before the snow falls. , that is, the time is a bit rushed, and the floor tiles have to be laid, and a few days of time will be wasted.

As a last resort, Dong Chenghu had to go to Qin's Zuo's house to ask Uncle Qin and Zuo Qingsong for help, which made the speed much faster.

This is the first time Yang Qiong and Dong Yunlan have seen the complete process of building a house. Back to the house for dinner.

Shen Shikang was very interested in that kind of seaweed, so he went to test it twice and found that it was really not something he could touch, so he stopped.

Everyone in Cuizhu Mountain was in full swing, and Linhai County also started a large-scale war with the imperial court.

Gu Shuixiu and the others did not know what was going on outside. Twenty days later, the two houses of the Dong family were finally completed. Doubled in size, the rooms have also increased from twenty-four to forty-eight single rooms.

Direction, there are eight rooms in a row, and there are also forty-eight rooms in total.

According to Gu Shuixiu's meaning, it is impossible for Cuizhu Mountain to have so many servants, but if there is a chance to build it, just build more, maybe there will be opportunities in the future.

Dong Yi and the others were the happiest when the house was built. Since they will get married at the end of the year, they can be considered to have their own private space with this house.

Complete furniture.

Now men and women can officially live separately. Dong Shan and the others moved from the original house to a new house, leaving the original house for Cuixi and others to live in.

The first snow of winter had already fallen, and Gu Shuixiu and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chenghu, I think before the snow has closed the mountain, you can ask Dong Yi to go to the town to buy some supplies, and it will be New Year's Eve in a month or so. Also, Dong Yi The things they got married should also be well-stocked, none of these things should be missing, you should go too, the money will be paid by us, how can we say that they are loyal to our family, we can't let their hearts be cold."

Dong Chenghu nodded and took advantage of the situation to pick up the small ledger beside Gu Shuixiu and read it. This ledger is the secret of their husband and wife. It records in detail the money returned from the last robbery in Dongyang County and The annual profit of their shop, as well as some important expenses.

In order to prevent others from discovering the secrets of the ledger, Gu Shuixiu specially recorded it with Arabic numerals, which only she and Dong Chenghu could understand. Even for those gold and silver jewellery, she also only wrote a concise code name, When others get this ledger, it is really like reading a book from heaven.

Dong Chenghu took a look and found that their shop has spent almost all the money they made in the past few years, and they also used a little money saved from selling red coral and prey before. They didn't dare to move the hole. Before the change of dynasty, they would not have made the idea of ​​making money this time.

Dong Chenghu frowned and said: "Shuixiu, our family is now a big business, so many people, so many mouths to eat, just relying on the fragrance of ten miles is not a big deal."

"Then what do you think? Don't forget that we are in the mountains now. As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and relying on the sea to eat the sea, we have both, but there are our secrets on the beach. , this can't be announced to the public, then the mountain is left. Since we have a lot of things, you haven't gone out hunting anymore, especially when you went out last time and did such a terrible thing, but if we take too long If you don’t go out to hunt, it will inevitably cause others’ suspicion after a long time.”

Gu Shuixiu has always been worried about other people's peeping at Dong's family.

"You are right, we really can't go on like this. After the spring ploughing next year, I will take my servants to go hunting, and by the way, I will take some older children of Xingchi out. , they have also practiced kung fu for so many years, how should they go out and play with real knives and real guns, or how do they know how many pounds and taels they have?"

Gu Shuixiu will never object to Dong Chenghu's proposal unless it crosses his limit.

The two of them made a decision, but it was not time to announce the news to everyone, so Dong Chenghu had to bear it down.

The next day, Gu Shuixiu announced that Dong Chenghu would take the lead, Dong Yi, Dong Wei and Dong Lie dispatched together to drive away the two donkey carts at home, and try to bring them all at once. Everything is bought back.

Before going out, Yang Yi didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he had to follow him out of the mountain.

Gu Shuixiu was noncommittal about this, since Yang Yi was willing to be a coolie, she was naturally happy that Dong Chenghu relaxed.

Just after Dong Chenghu and the others set off, Shen Shikang also received a biography from flying pigeons. Seeing the above news, Shen Shikang was silent.

"Mr. Shen? Did something happen?" Seeing that Shen Shikang was in a wrong mood, Gu Shuixiu asked tentatively.
