Out of the kitchen, they only breathed a sigh of relief, this little owner's ability they have seen, fortunately they usually do things more attentively, otherwise the little owner angry, their end will be like that teacup, will be shattered into powder.
Qibao returned to the hall and said to Shopkeeper Zhang: "Yes, you are managing very well. Keep working hard. This month, each person will receive an extra tael of silver as a reward. You will continue to do so in the future."
Shopkeeper Zhang immediately said happily: "Thank you very much, Miss. I would also like to express my gratitude to everyone. Don't worry, Miss. I will do my best."
Qibao nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then I'll leave first. You can go back and do your work!"
When Qibao and the old man were done with their business, they also returned to the Xujia Village.
As soon as she entered the house, Ms. Wang asked: "How is it? Is there a suitable yard?"
The old man answered: "We have already bought it. It is larger than the one we live in now. It has a three-door courtyard and cost 750 taels of silver."
Mrs. Wang said: "Why buy such a big yard? We don't live there often, so it would be a pity to leave it empty!"
The old man said: "Who said no one lives here? It's not a problem for Wenwu and the others to live in a barbecue restaurant. It's not suitable for studying. Isn't it just right to live in?" He told the family what Qibao said.
The others felt that this was the case and didn't dwell on it.
Mrs. Wang said: "I went to the field that our family bought back in the morning, the villagers often collect firewood there, and there are no weeds, so there's no need to purposely find someone to weed it."
In the afternoon, Xu Dabo and the village chief returned.
"I've already spoken to the village chiefs of several nearby villages, and they're all overjoyed, saying that they'll definitely have the village men come over tomorrow to start working." The village chief said.
Xu Dabo then said: "For the bricks and tiles to build the workshop, I went to the same company that delivered them to our house last time. They said they would be delivered early tomorrow morning."
"Second and Third, you two will take people to dig a hole in the ground tomorrow. The fruit saplings will be delivered tomorrow and they can be planted immediately." The old man said.
"Brother, I will come over to help tomorrow, just take care of the food!" the village chief said.
"Then I'd like to thank the village chief!" The old man thanked him.
After everyone came together to discuss it, the village chief took his leave and went back.
Early the next morning, as soon as the Xu family finished eating, the village chief came, followed by a large group of men.
The village chief said: "This is a worker from a nearby village. They came here early in the morning."
The old man looked at these people. Many of them were men who came to Xujia Village to build roads last time, and some of them had unfamiliar faces.
The old man also saw two people, the two nephews was Li Fugui, the second daughter-in-law's brother, and the other was Zhang Chunxi, the eldest daughter-in-law's brother.
The old man let the second and the third take the crowd to the flattened field, he is going to the town today to find someone to haul those fruit seedlings back, Qibao is worried that there is a mistake, so she also followed.
This time it was Xu Dabo who drove the carriage with them.
When they reached the town, the old man found the man who specialized in helping people with delivery, and negotiated the price with him, and the man followed the old man with his own fleet and headed to the new house together.
Along the way it drew a lot of attention, after all, so many carriages walking in the center of the street, or uncommon, but it was just a curiosity to look at.
Coming to the entrance of the house, because the alley only allows one carriage to enter, if all the carriages behind go in, the ones in front that went in first won't be able to get out.
The old man can only let one full carriage go out before the next carriage can come in.
It took a lot of work and sweat to load all the saplings onto the carriage.
After locking the door, the old man led these people towards Xujia Village without stopping.
Fortunately, the road has been repaired, otherwise these saplings would surely fall apart if they were left on the previous road.
The convoy was brought to the flat land where the fruit trees were planted, and the workers and those with eyes stepped forward to help.
With more people, the work went much faster. After a while, all the fruit saplings were unloaded and placed neatly on the ground without any damage.
After giving the silver to the leader of the caravan, he left with his men.
The old man said to the men who came to work: "First of all, I'm very grateful to all of you for coming to Xujia Village to work for my family, and I think you're all well aware of the wages our family pays."
After saying this, he pulled Old Man Lin to his side and continued: "This is my in-laws, an older brother, one will let him be in charge of the matters that you work on, everyone will call him Steward Lin."
Old man Lin was stunned. He didn't expect that the old man would ask him to take care of these people. He was a little nervous, but he couldn't refuse. If he refused, wouldn't he make his in-laws lose face? He bit the bullet and agreed.
All the men who came to work were taken care of by Old Man Lin, and every one of them was good at managing things. Old Man Lin was worried about this, but his vanity was greatly satisfied.
So the old man started digging the first shovelful of soil, and then the workers took their tools and started digging the foundation.
Seeing that everyone had dispersed and started working, Old Lin pulled the old man Xu and said: "Brother, why did you ask me to be in charge? I'm afraid that I won't be able to do a good job, and I'm really worried!"
The old man smiled and said: "Fear what, I let your son-in-law helps you, and you don't need to work, just let yourself familiarize with how to manage the workers in advance, and you won't be too busy when the workshop opens up later, don't you think so?"
Old man Lin thought for a while. This workshop was a big deal. It was the hard work of his precious granddaughter. He couldn't let himself mess it up, so he said:
"Okay, I've done this job, and it will always be some men from the village. If I don't do it well, they won't laugh at me. I'm going to watch it now." After that, he went to where the workers were working.
Seeing that the workshop was already under construction, looking at the open space on the side, the family had dug a lot of holes throughout the morning.
Qibao divided the land into three parts, one for grapes, one for strawberries, and one for blueberries.
First planted are grapes, grapes are plants that can climb vines, so for every vine planted, next to it, a stake about a meter high or so was inserted and connected to the stake of the vine next to it, Qibao wanted the planted grapes not to grow upwards one by one, rather, to grow from side to side.
That way you can bend down and pick later, so you don't have to climb up and down, which isn't safe, and in the meantime the bricks and tiles delivery man has delivered the goods.
At noon, Xu's family ate together with the workers. They really didn't want to go home and cook for themselves. It would be better to plant the fruit saplings as early as possible.
Men as old as the old man Xu in the village also came to help plant fruit trees. More than 200 grape vines were planted in the afternoon.
After planting the grape vines, the women of the Xu family took buckets to water the grape trees. It was spiritual spring water prepared by Qibao according to the proportion, allowing the grapes to grow and bear fruit within their own budget without attracting attention.
Everyone began to busy planting blueberry seedlings, which is not as troublesome as planting grapes, but also need to insert stakes, although it is still busy till the workers are released from work have not finished planting.
Seeing that it was getting late, the old man said: "Everyone go back, it's hard work today, but everyone won't be busy for nothing, when all these fruit seedlings are planted I will also pay everyone for their work, when my family's workshop is built, I'll set up a three-day banquet in the village to invite everyone to eat."
