Qi Kang'an was afraid that what he really got was different from what Yong'an City said, and his daughter would be angry, so he wanted to calm down first.
No one in the village had any objections, and everyone was waiting for the relief food happily. At this time, there was no need for his daughter to come forward and offend others. There was no need for her.
If the treatment is not done well and it is thankless, then there is nothing wrong with it.
Qi Bao'er nodded after hearing this, "Don't worry, Dad, we won't be hungry anyway."
"hehe."
Qi Kang'an smiled and rubbed his daughter's head, "So let's move away first and stay away from the big guys. Then we won't have to worry about what we eat and drink.
By the way, your master also asked me to tell you that after our big house moves out of the big yard, you don't want to give anything to the second and third bedrooms.
Your master said that if other people can live, they can live too, so you should not interfere with what is happening."
Um?
There's something going on here!
Qi Bao'er guessed correctly, something really happened in Lao Qi's family during the two days she was away.
The cause of the matter was buying land.
Qi Kang'an did not choose a location in the center of the village. Instead, he chose a location near the head of the village, with the mountain at his back. Not far from it was a small river that flowed down from the mountain and merged into the big river below.
One reason is that it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the other reason is that the land available for purchase is larger, and it is also to avoid people.
If Qi Kang'an got his daughter, he would go to a bigger place and buy the entire area including the mountain behind.
"Originally, one acre of land to build a house cost seven taels of silver. Isn't that special for us? Jiuchang Town also made concessions at a loss, and it only cost half the price.
The piece of land is about five and a half acres, converted to five acres, the hillside behind the land is a total of twenty-three acres and seven, also converted, calculated as twenty acres, there is basically nothing on the mountain, and there are not many trees.
A tree is considered a barren hill, and the price of a barren hill is one tael of silver per acre.
The land we bought covers a lot of land on the other side of the river, but we agreed that after we build a house, the river can pass through the house, but we can't cut off the river."
Qi Kang'an didn't understand what it meant. He only heard the yamen surnamed Wei saying that it was the higher-ups' intention to protect water sources or something like that.
Qi Bao'er's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Dad, we can dig a lake at home, plant some lotus flowers, and raise some fish. The water will still be alive."
Fish can be eaten and sold, lotus seeds can be raised and lotus roots can be eaten.
"Dad thinks so too. He also thinks that our house doesn't need to be that big. It's boring. We can just build it on the river side. It's nearly two acres of land, and it can already build a big yard."
But we can still dig the river into a lake, plant lotus, raise fish, and raise chickens and ducks."
Qi Kang'an thought far ahead. The third brother could figure it out on his own, so he probably didn't need to worry about it. But as for the second brother, if he didn't help that fool, the whole family would probably die of poverty.
Just in time, let's make a lake and raise some things for my second brother to look at.
"This is my fault, Dad. I've thought about it. Your second uncle can only lie down recently, and dad wants to make him happy. Who knows that when dad was talking to your second uncle, your third uncle happened to be passing by."
Qi Kangfu didn't argue with Qi Kang'an, but the land he originally chose was closer to Qi Kang'an's. After hearing this, he ran to Qi Kaishan and changed the land to the end of the village.
Qi Kangfu himself said that he also wanted to change to a bigger piece of land. He didn't know if he would marry another wife. If he did, he would definitely have more children in the future. Four and six children would also have one each.
If the land you buy is too small now, you will not be able to live in it in the future.
It sounds like this. They can't just buy any land of any size. Jiuchang Town specially sent yamen and scribes. That's because the sizes of houses in each village here are roughly planned.
They are not too big, ranging from 60 square meters to 200 square meters. This is why Qi Kangan bought Cuntou.
But it makes people feel uncomfortable.
When Old Man Qi found out about this, he didn't say anything. Then last night, he suddenly called Qi Kang'an into the room and said what he had just said to Qi Bao'er.
Qi Bao'er didn't even know what to say about her third uncle. He hadn't really settled down yet, so why bother?
Owe is not.
It really pissed off her father, who was not the kind of indecisive person who could really do anything to abandon his son.
"Second uncle, are you okay now?"
It's pitiful that my second uncle, who usually dances so much, can only lie in bed all day long. He must be suffocating.
"If anything happens to him, just take care of him." You guys are so coquettish.
"Let's go, dad will take you to the barren mountain to have a look. Didn't you say you wanted to make your own orchard? Go take a look first."
-
Everywhere in the village is bustling with activity, and the most lively place is at the head of the village.
The others are planning to build their own houses, but they have no money. They already owe money to the village to buy a piece of land, and everyone has empty pockets. How can they still have the money to hire people and buy bricks?
There was only the big house of Lao Qi's family. Old Qi actually asked Qi Kang'an to find Xing Yatou. Xing Yatou's brother-in-law was the contractor, surnamed Pang. He had a construction team and asked him to build a house and even bricks it.
You don't have to worry about any of this.
In a word, as long as you give money, he will take care of everything else for you.
Of course, Old Man Qi and Qi Kang'an are not stupid either. After buying Dihotan yesterday, all the men from Dafang, except Da Lang, went out and spent a day asking around to confirm that Foreman Pang's team had a solid reputation. Foreman Pang reported
The price is just a little more expensive than buying it yourself, but it's not excessive.
The father and son thought about it and made a decision.
After all, they can only build some ordinary village houses as before. When they buy such a large piece of land this time, they need to build a large yard, surrounded by pavilions, attics, and rockeries.
The old man Qi also had another purpose, in order to have some contact with the Xing Yatou.
He was the brother-in-law introduced by Xing Yatou. Naturally, for his own sake, he would always stare here.
If you go back and forth like this, you will become familiar with it.
If you are familiar with the Yamen of Yong'an City, the people in Jiuchang Town will give them some face in Qijia Village, at least they won't be bullied by recruitment or corvee because they are newcomers.
It was also a coincidence that Foreman Pang had a job in hand, but the man didn't know whether it was intentional or not. When Foreman Pang's ordered bricks were all out of the cellar, he suddenly said that he was no longer responsible for the house.
Now tens of thousands of bricks were smashed into his hands.
So Lao Qi's family appointed him to build a house, but like a life-saving straw, these green bricks not only lost money to Lao Qi's family, but as if they were afraid that Lao Qi's family would regret it, they started loading carts of green bricks early this morning.
Transported to the new homestead of Lao Qi's Dafang.
Over there, Foreman Pang was also unloading the truck with everyone. He saw Qi Kang'an grinning and waving hello: "My boss is here."
Foreman Pang is young, about twenty-five or six, with an ordinary appearance, a bit naive, and looks like a person without any scheming.
But how can someone who can form a construction team in Yong'an City be really careless?
Qi Kang'an did not go that way. He turned his head in the same direction and shouted back: "You are busy with your business. I will stop by and take my daughter for a walk on the mountain behind."
Foremen are very attentive. Although Foreman Pang only came here early this morning, he has already asked about many things that he should ask about. He knows that the mountain behind is just bought by his employer.
Foreman Pang was very happy. This boss was obviously a wealthy owner, so they didn't have to worry about their wages at all.
