When the workers saw that the red bricks did not leak, their eyes turned red. What did this mean? It meant that as long as they used these red bricks to build their house they wouldn't have to worry about leaking roofs and cold wind flowing inside their houses.
With this, they no longer have to worry about the winter next year!
Lin Jing continued to test the bricks and when they cleared all the tests, he nodded and then turned to look at the workers before saying, "It's done."
The workers cheered after confirming that the bricks they made were perfect. It turned out that Lin Jing and Su Wan's family were not making wild claims when they said that they could make houses that would keep them warm in winter and protect them in the rains.
" You see this? This was all done because my wife learned. Make sure that you send your children to the school after the construction is finished," since this territory was handed to Su Wan, she did not want to hand her hard work to anyone else.
The elementary scholar exams were going to be held next month and she wanted to prepare this territory for Lin Rui. As long as Lin Rui could get his title as an official, no one would dare to snatch this territory from them.
The workers nodded, if this could be learned through going to school, then they would also send their children to school!
Lin Jing nodded and then turned to the young men who were learning how to make buildings from him and said, " I taught one-half of you to lay down the beam and now they are already working at the construction site, remember that to make a building one need to learn not only how to lay down a beam but also how to construct a layout and how to make a roof."
" Your group will learn how to lay down walls with me today," he told them.
" Understood," the young men replied, if they learned how to build houses then they would be able to make teams with others. With everyone working together, they would be able to earn a decent living.
Lin Jing was satisfied with their response. He turned to the workers who were watching the mound that they made to cook coal and asked, " Is it time?"
Wang Min and the rest were really touched by their actions. After all, no one would be willing to impart education to them for free like this but Su Wan and her family did not ask for a cent from them.
What was more they were also given three meals a day and they were allowed to deal with as they wanted, if they wanted to take it home with them, the masters did not stop them,
White buns and bone broth, who would not like it?
They were also given fifty when as salary, this was good enough for them.
The environment of the Big Ocean City was not good and no one hired them for work, even if they went to other towns, the price would be lowered deliberately. As the masters knew that they were in no position to refuse them. Ten wen and no meal, they have worked in situations like this, compared to that this was heaven!
The employers were fair and honest, so why would they fool them? They all have to work hard.
Thus, the workers did not hesitate to overtime and soon a month passed by.
Since Su Wan came up with the idea of snack street many officials were eyeing the street, they would come to take a look at the street every day since the construction started.
And now that they were staring at the street which was covered with buildings with colored walls and bright borders, they could not believe their eyes.
Even the path had been smoothed with a greyish-black surface.
Was this really the dump yard that they saw a month ago?
