Chapter 94 House layout is good
Women hurriedly moved benches and tables for them in the yard, and the cook made tea and put it on the table.
Qiao Mai put down his embroidery work and smiled at them.
"You are tired, sit down and drink some tea."
"You are?"
"I bought more than a dozen servants, and three of them are in the front shop. They work at home during the day, and live in the house behind the shop at night, and move there as soon as the house is built."
"You should have bought two girls to help you take care of Ling'er. She can't leave her when she is young."
"It's not too late."
Yuan Jiaqi felt a little uncomfortable. He felt a little uncomfortable when there were so many women in his family.
Mr. Wang could tell that not only him, but also Fenger and the three of them were a little uncomfortable. However, they lived in the palace and were served by servants, so it was not so obvious.
"The main reason is that the place here is small. When the place grows bigger, without these people, you still feel scared to live in it. Remember, when the house is big, there must be fewer people, otherwise the town will not be able to live in the house, and foreign objects will be attracted."
"Sir, do you still read metaphysics?"
"Well, I've seen a few, what's for lunch today?"
"The cook is working, you take a rest first, I will peel a plate of fruit for you."
Feng'er stood up quickly when he heard this, "Mother, I'll go, you sit with sir."
The three little ones immediately got up and went to the warehouse. They knew where the things were. Wu Zhui and Sai Xue followed behind them, and even Linger clamored to follow her brother.
Mr. Wang listened to the crowing of the quail in the east wing, "Is there a place for them in the new house?"
"Some specialize in raising quails, some specialize in raising chickens and ducks, and some specialize in raising deer, and then raise two cows."
"You raise so many, doesn't the house stink?"
"Keep them in a corner of the back house. There are five acres of land behind the house. When the time comes, the manure can be directly burned with hay to use as fertilizer for the land."
"I didn't expect that you would still be farming?"
"Otherwise, when winter comes, how can you eat fresh vegetables?"
"You are the only one who can argue."
"I'm telling the truth."
"snort!"
Lunch is eaten in the yard, and the mother-in-law and maids eat in the kitchen. Although it is different from what the master eats, it is not that bad.
There is fish and meat as well. When they came to Qiao's house, they all ate a lot of fat.
After lunch, Qiao Mai took them to visit their new home, introducing them as they walked.
"There are eight shops in the front row, and they haven't been rented out yet. My business will occupy one of them. The whole house is in the shape of a hundred characters. The architect said that the shape of the house is good, so the drawings haven't been changed much."
Mr. Wang has read a lot of books and has research on houses. He nodded, "The house type is good."
“The house inside was built first, followed by the construction of the gate and courtyard, and the wall last.”
"The fence consumes more green bricks than building a house."
"That's right, but it's true that it's better than a housewife. What are these two sides doing?"
"Planting a few pomegranate trees on one side means that the descendants of the family will be prosperous."
"Well, there should be a pool in the middle, instead of the screen wall?"
"Yes, the screen wall is too vulgar, with mountains and water, which conforms to Feng Shui theory"
"You know a lot, but where is it? Is it a corner room?"
"No, that's the kitchen. It's a small courtyard. It's more convenient for the cook to live in. There's an ice kiln and a well in it. The house opposite is for the rough envoy, and there's also a well in it. It is convenient for washing, the living room is in the middle, and the side rooms on both sides are for you to teach and students, and you can do anything at the same time.”
"Well, it looks very bright. When no one is around, you can still teach in the courtyard. It's good to let them breathe."
Come to the middle courtyard, six houses are neatly arranged, the blue bricks and green tiles are very pleasing to the eye, and the design is much more reasonable than ordinary houses.
At this time, the workers were installing the doors and windows. Mr. Wang walked in, looked at the layout and nodded.
"Did you draw this?"
"Yes, every house has a circle of corridors. I heard people say that this is called the layout of the four waters returning to the hall. It is very convenient to gather wealth, and it is raining. You can also walk in each house and enjoy the scenery in the corridor. rain"
The old gentleman took a deep look at her, "Well, it's a residence, and it must be comfortable to live in."
"There are six houses in total, you can choose one, and I will send two women to serve you."
"No, I'll bring two from home by then?"
"It's okay, when it's built, besides our family, my good sister's family will also come to live."
"I heard from Ru'er that that woman is worthy, and you were right to be grateful for saving you back then."
Come to the end, in the middle is her house, which is even more magnificent than the living room in front.
"Hey, this is where I live. The layout is the same as the living room in front."
Old Wang nodded first, did not go in, and turned to the left side, "What are you planning to do here?"
"Amusement park, a place for children to play. There are slides, carousels, seesaws and other simple facilities. There is a small house here, which is the place where quails and chickens are raised. About a thousand quails can be raised. , more than a hundred chickens."
The old man raised his eyebrows without humming, and came to the right, "What about here?"
"This is a martial arts training ground, which can be used for physical exercise. The fitness equipment craftsmen are rushing to make it. The house and open space next to it are used to raise ducks, geese, and deer."
"What kind of deer should you raise well?"
"There are many benefits to raising deer. The velvet produced can be sold, and there is also deer blood, etc. The deer are full of treasures, which can be used as medicine, but I will not kill them. I want to use them as medicine. When they die of old age, I will keep them just to get them." Deer antler, I also want to raise some red deer, and buy some musk every year, this thing is very expensive for the pharmacy."
Yuan Jiaqi saw her talking about making money, her eyes shining brightly, and felt like a kitten was scratching in her heart.
The old man pursed his lips, "If you have money, go for it."
Finally came to the edge of the five acres of land behind, "The wheat has grown quite high."
"Yeah, I asked the workers to help me weed and water the fields in their free time. I didn't take care of it. After the wheat was harvested, I planned to plant something else. Planting food would starve me to death."
"I think you used to have no land, and you lived well."
"Hey, of course, I'm the best at doing business."
After visiting around, the old man went back to Qiao's house with his hands behind his back. Although he looked calm on the surface, in fact he couldn't calm down in his heart.
The layout of this house is so reasonable that he wants to renovate his own house.
A house covering an area of 30 acres, there are flowers, grasses, grasses, trees and trees, and they are well arranged.
She raises small animals for a purpose. She raises a dog to look after the house, raises others to make money, and raises cows so that the family can drink milk and the land can get fertilizer.
She also likes small animals. She has her own principles for raising them. She does not kill them, but raising them means creating wealth and value for herself.
In the future, if Yuan’s family is promoted step by step, the children will pass the exams, and then they will be promoted step by step. Every step needs money to manage, how can they do it without money.
Save up a little property early for a rainy day.
Yuan Jiaqi felt even less confident after seeing the house. Not to mention Qiao's ability to make money, in just a short time, he bought more than a dozen servants and built such a big house. He and his three children are definitely a group of white people. Free food and drink.
If you fail to pass the exam in the future, you will be too sorry for Joe.
He suffered too much today and remained silent all the time. The children are very happy, and they will be able to live in a big house in the future.
The old gentleman saw it, and he pulled Yuan Jiaqi aside.
"Don't feel sorry for yourself. Your advantage is that you can read. As long as you read the book well, you can become strong. Being weak now does not mean that you will be weak in the future. No matter how rich she is, she has no backing or power. Just be her backer and protect her and the child."
Yuan Jiaqi took a deep breath, and immediately said solemnly.
"Students must work hard."
"Remember, there are people out there, and there are people out there. Don't be arrogant, don't be irritable, and keep your original intention."
"Yes, sir!"
