Chapter 407: The Villagers’ Decisions
Translator: Lonelytree
Lin Yuelan said calmly, “I’m not doubting your character, but I’m just trying to ensure the quality of the construction.
“If there’s no problem with the work, it’s good for everyone. However, if there’s any problem with the construction, I will not hold back either.
“But don’t worry, I won’t mistreat you and your brothers in terms of wages. In terms of food, I guarantee that there will be meat for every meal. As for accommodation, I will also provide subsidies.”
To be honest, Lin Yuelan’s offer was definitely tempting. It was just the presence of a supervisor that made them unhappy.
Craftsman Hu said worriedly, “what if the third party you’re talking about goes against us to earn more money? What should we do?”
!!Lin Yuelan smiled and said, “don’t worry, he won’t abuse his authority for personal gain. Even if he made some mistakes, it’s likely that you didn’t meet the construction requirements. On the contrary, if he is suspected of having moral issues, I will fire him without a word. What do you think?”
“What if there’s a conflict between the two sides?”
“Then you can just look for me to be the judge. After all, I’m the owner of the houses and have the most say, don’t you think?”
“If that’s the case, then we have no more questions.” Craftsman Hu said, “But there is something that I need to clarify. How much do you plan to pay us for the construction of the house?”
“One hundred and eight taels!”
One tael was one thousand copper coins. The work of a craftsman was usually thirty to thirty-five copper coins a day, and this was for the best craftsman. One hundred taels were enough for more than a hundred people to work for more than 30 days.
“This is the salary for the first house. I know the weight of my pay. My only request is that my house must be good, strong, and comfortable.”
It was obvious that there was no need for more than 100 people to work for more than 30 days.
Craftsman Hu was naturally moved when he heard the salary.
He believed that the five Hu brothers were the best builders in Ning An Town. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have so many businesses.
The reason they had come to take on the job this time was because of their friends.h.i.+p with manager Li. Manager Li had asked them for help.
They thought that the construction wouldn’t be so taxing in the countryside. They came to discuss the issue with the owner’s family. They hoped to finish this construction as soon as possible.
After all, there were many people in town looking for them to work, so why would they come to the countryside?
Who would have thought that they would be given such a big surprise?
Craftsman Hu discussed with his four brothers for a while, then nodded and said, “we’ll take your word for it. When do we start working?”
“Three days later!”
“Okay, three days later, we will bring some tools over.”
After craftsman Hu and the others left, there was another matter that made Lin Yuelan frown.
It was the window.
The windows in ancient times were all made of window paper. Although light could pa.s.s through, it was not transparent.
She wanted to have gla.s.s windows.
The main materials of gla.s.s were sodium carbonate, limestone, and quartz.
These three materials were not easy to find in the Lin family Village.
At the thought of this, Lin Yuelan sighed and said, “it seems that we need to put the gla.s.s-making matter on hold. Let’s finish the house first.”
She didn’t have any of these items in her s.p.a.ce at the moment. She needed to find them first.
…
At the village chief’s home, Grandma Zhou held the t.i.tle deed of their old house and said to her husband, “old man, the t.i.tle deeds of the old house seem to be all here, right?”
Lin Yiwei took a look at the t.i.tle deed and said, “yes, they’re all here. The old house and the empty land around it, as well as some scattered empty land, add up to about two mu.”
The Lin family Village only had 40 to 50 families. Some of them had a lot of land near Lin Yuelan’s hut. For example, Lin Laosan’s family occupied a lot of lands there. Who knew what they would do to make things difficult for Lan ‘Er this time…
