After she finished explaining her thoughts in detail, the big brother measured the area here.
"The location is very large, five courtyards are enough, but four courtyards will be very large. Everything you want can be made, but do you have a design drawing?
I mean, how do you want to design these things and where do you want them to be designed?”
"I have Big Brother, but I need to draw it..."
"Okay, let's do this. I'll make another trip in the afternoon and bring you some pens, inks, paper and inkstones. You can draw your ideas for me..."
"OK!"
Big Brother left, and Shen Wanxue returned home. The first thing she did was to clean the life, cut off a piece, and put it into the mouth of the third brother.
By the way, he put the big bones he bought in the town into the big pot and started cooking them. He even put two pieces of wild ginseng in it.
After she finished all this, she returned to the only room and told her eldest brother and second brother what she thought.
"Sister, this will cost a lot of money...you..."
"Big brother and second brother, I know what you are worried about.
Didn't I go up the mountain a few days ago? I found a special kind of seed on the mountain that smelled very good when it sprouted. I just sold this thing.
I sold it for three hundred taels of silver, plus a ginseng. Look, we are rich.
We can't drag it on like this anymore? It's not good for your injuries. We must have a good environment.
No matter how much it costs to build this house, I will definitely build all the houses for my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother."
Facing their sister's determination, the two of them didn't know what to say for a moment, let alone what the seed was and why it was so precious.
"Sister, now that we've made up our mind, we have nothing to say, but don't tell others about the strange seeds you picked up on the mountain..."
Shen Wanxue understood that once this matter was revealed, the people in Shenjiabao would think that she had stolen their medicinal materials.
"I know, I just said I borrowed it? I will pay it back slowly in the future."
In the afternoon, Big Brother came, carrying pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
The two people started studying at the door of the small room.
"Brother, second brother, please come and study it too... Look, the living room is placed here. On both sides of the living room are the study room and the tea room...
Of course, it can be changed to other ones later. The location of the stairs is right here. From the edge of the living room, you can go directly to the second floor...
The left side of the living room can be used as a guest room. The right side can be used as a kitchen, plus a storage area.
How about making a latrine and bathroom behind the house?"
"Sister, you decide, we have no objection!"
"Okay! The remaining houses can't be the same, change the style..." Shen Wanxue let all her ideas be drawn on the drawings one by one.
Big Brother has been building houses for people all his life, and he has never thought of such a novel building.
And everything is just right.
The design is also very reasonable, even the sewers are set up.
"Girl, your idea is very special. And such a big land is enough for these houses.
Now that you have thought about the setting of the house and drawn it, let’s measure it and distribute it..."
"good!"
Shen Wanxue followed the people out and occupied the surrounding ground.
Each courtyard is enough for 150 square meters.
Big Brother told Shen Wanxue about the ground and the location where construction needs to start.
"Look, girl, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to clean up here. After all, it's backed by a mountain.
There is also a downhill slope here, and it will take a lot of manpower and material resources to pad it up.
Let me simply calculate the materials for you. Four courtyards, wood, bricks, tiles, and you also need to lay floor tiles, which costs about 140 taels. The labor cost is about 50 taels.
The repair of the gate, the widening of the road, and the addition of water wells are about 70 taels.
The total cost is two hundred and sixty taels. A courtyard is about more than 60 taels. Can you accept this price?"
Shen Wanxue counted on her fingers, and it was indeed the case.
"Big brother, I want the best materials."
"Girl, go out and ask for your big brother's name. Big brother never cheats when building houses for others, and the materials he uses are all of the highest quality.
You can live there for a hundred years without any problem..."
"Okay, I accept it."
"Now that you have accepted it, let me ask another practical question.
The one inside should be your brother. If I read it correctly, there is another one lying on the bed. He must be sick, right?
You probably only have that one room, but if you want to build a house, it will have to be demolished and rebuilt. Where will you live while the house is being built?"
Hearing this question, Shen Wanxue was stunned, and soon she thought of a way.
"I'm going to rent a room in the village to live temporarily!"
"Okay, then let's keep things like this for now. I'll have someone come tomorrow. It's best if you move out today. I'll just have someone come tomorrow. Because it just rained heavily, it will be easier to dig the foundation."
"Okay, I'll go back right now!"
Big brother left, and Shen Wanxue went back to discuss the matter with the eldest and second brothers, and planned to rent a room in the village.
But he was stopped by his second brother.
"Sister, there's no need to go, I've already been there, they don't want to..."
"Then what should I do? If I give you more money, it should be fine!"
"It's not about money. They're afraid we'll die there, so..."
When Shen Wanxue heard this, she immediately became angry and furious.
"What do you mean you will die there? I said you will not die, I will not allow any of you to die... They are too abominable..."
Shen Wanxue was not convinced and left the house angrily.
When she rushed into the village, she was like a twenty-foot-long monk who was confused and went from house to house.
The result was very disappointing to her, and none of the direct and collateral members of the Shen family were willing to help.
Even the village chief hesitated: "Girl, it's not that I won't help you, there are no free houses in the village..."
There are people in every house, you can't let me force people to open the door, right?"
"Do you really have the heart to see us living on the streets like this? You are so cruel. We are from the same roots, so why are we so anxious to fight against each other!"
Shen Yuan was helpless: "I'm sorry, when your second brother came to ask, I also ran to ask, but..."
"Okay, I understand, but one day I will let you know that the decision you are making now is wrong!"
Just when she was about to go home angrily, an old woman blocked her way.
