Chapter 108 The Beginning of the Great Construction
While Xiao Han came over to see Xiao Er's calculations, Butler Lu said with a smile on his face: "Haha, Mr. Marquis, now that the family has made money, I'm thinking about starting the construction of the mansion, and I always let you sleep in it.
Such a simple place is not suitable. If an outsider comes, I can't always squeeze in with you! As for the manpower, Mr. Hou doesn't have to worry. When I have all the materials ready in two days, the manager of the dental department will naturally bring them.
Bring the craftsmen over and start building now. By winter, it will be almost completed!"
"Well, okay, you can take care of these things yourself, but the Hou Mansion is not in a hurry!" Xiao Han rubbed his eyes, put down the paper full of numbers, picked up the pen in Xiao's hand and crossed out the materials from the Hou Mansion.
, turned around and said to Butler Lu: "Please prepare the materials for other people's houses first. As for mine, wait a moment. Anyway, I plan to move to Shishan for a while tomorrow."
"Well...it's not very good. Mr. Hou, you don't even have a place to live. How can you live in peace with them?"
Butler Lu was a little surprised when he saw that Xiao Han didn't seem to be joking. Although building the Hou Mansion required a lot of money, considering Xiao Han's current windfall, the money spent to build the Hou Mansion was absolutely nothing.
Seeing Butler Lu's incomprehensible look, Xiao Han had to explain to him first: "That's it, I'm going to make some new materials in two days. The foundation of my family's house must be laid first, and the bricks and tiles are ready, and then the mud will be ready."
Don’t live any longer. When I get good materials, we won’t need yellow mud to build houses in the future!”
"No yellow mud? Then what to use?"
"cement!"
"What is cement used for?" Butler Lu became more and more confused. Just as he was about to raise his head to ask, he found that Xiao Han had already opened the box containing the gold, and his face was immersed in the golden light with a happy face.
Butler Lu and Xiao Er knew that this was Lord Hou's happiest time, so they were wise enough not to disturb him.
It's not easy for the Marquis either. All they have to do is to do their job. However, at such a young age, the Marquis has to support such a big family. In the game with the outside world, none of them can help him and provide food for his family.
As for the wearability, they could only look at it stupidly and couldn't think of anything to do!
All they can do is to try their best to do those trivial things well and not let the Marquis worry about it any more. Didn't you see that the Marquis's careless smiles are getting less and less now?
Xiao Han entered his daily fantasy state. Butler Lu and Xiao Er stood beside him like a guard. The idiot who had just finished eating saw Xiao Han and was about to come over to say hello when he was kicked by Butler Lu.
How many feet away...
"call……"
I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Han let out a sigh of relief, and his eyes slowly became brighter from a dazed state.
This was a sign that Xiao Han was about to wake up. Xiao Er, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly moved a small stool to Xiao Han so that he could sit and rest.
After diligently waiting for Xiao Han to sit down, Butler Lu was about to speak. The idiot rushed up with his big eyes. I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional. When he passed by Butler Lu, he thrust out his fat buttocks and directly hit Butler Lu.
He pushed it to the side and almost fell off the back steps on the spot.
"Master Marquis, Master Marquis, the craftsmen over there have said that the big kiln has been completed. What's next? Oh, by the way, as you asked, I also collected some stones and smashed them all into powder.
, that thing is hard to put away, and it flies everywhere when the wind blows, so the craftsmen said they should use it quickly!"
The fool stood under the eaves and reported the situation to Xiao Han with a serious face, as if he didn't see Butler Lu who was right behind him, waving his arms and trying to learn how to be independent as a golden rooster, and was making babbles...
Who told you to kick me just now...
The people digging the cellar over there saw the scene here. They were all squeaking like pigs, their hoes were tilted and they were about to die from laughter. It was so inhumane that they didn't come to help them!
Poor Butler Lu stepped on the edge, and below was the ditch dug out for drainage. He was flexing his teeth and claws for a long time, and was about to fall. Finally, someone extended a helping hand and gave him a hand. Poor Butler Lu barely managed to stand still.
, holding on to the wall and breathing heavily.
Alas, after all, Xiao Han still felt sorry for him. He was afraid that the thin bamboo pole that worked hard for the family would break, so he pulled him and kicked the idiot in the leg as punishment.
It's just that this kick is just like scratching an itch for the idiot, and it's not a threat at all. The idiot doesn't even bother to wipe the footprints on his pants...
Very good. Although Butler Lu was angry after suffering a loss, he looked at Xiao Han and said nothing. There seemed to be fire in his eyes. He didn't know what the idiot was planning. After offending the butler, he could still be nice to you.
?
Xiao Han enjoyed this playful family atmosphere very much. Having seen Li Shimin's strict barriers, he always felt that living in that kind of place for a long time would lead to mental illness. Of course it would be okay for you to be the emperor of the ages.
But look at your sons and daughters. They are rebellious, promiscuous, cowardly, and even homosexual. Anyway, there is no normal person. Xiao Han feels that it is inseparable from his family atmosphere. He must think about it at any time.
There is a way to persuade him. No matter how strong you are, if you encounter so many bad things, your heart will soon turn into a sieve!
As the number one person in the world, his food, clothing, housing and supplies are all the best in the world, but just like that, he died at the age of fifty. Who dares to say that it has nothing to do with these things?
The idiot looked at Butler Lu with a strange expression. His face was red and his neck was thick, and his Adam's apple was shaking violently. He obviously wanted to laugh but was trying hard to hold it back. Xiao Han pretended not to see it and said to him seriously:
"Okay, I know everything you said, let's do this for now... By the way, I almost forgot, go over there and tell them that they have a day off today, except for those who are on duty, everyone will come back. Brother Zhang's family today
Come here, let’s all take this opportunity to have a good gathering!”
The fool was still complacent about his successful revenge. Suddenly he heard what Xiao Han said and his eyes widened: "Is there anything delicious?"
In his mind, parties and food have always been inseparable. The fat chicken that day seemed to still have a fragrance in his mouth now that he thinks about it. He hasn't eaten anything good in the past few days...
After living a good life with Xiao Han for a few days, the current fool is no longer able to eat enough, and has begun to eat with a big mouth. In the past two days, I heard that the family's money was a little tight, and there was no food in the meal.
It wasn't meaty at all, and he enjoyed eating it so much that he didn't dare to tell others. If he did, he would definitely cut it into pieces...
"In all these years, how many days have we been able to have enough to eat? Is this something wrong with eating?!"
The idiot could even imagine the expression on his uncle's face when he said this, so these days he could only turn his grief and anger into food intake, but without the meat and fishy taste, no matter how much he ate, he still didn't have the feeling of enjoyment.
"You just know how to eat! Look at how fat you are, and you're not afraid of stuffing yourself to death!"
Xiao Han laughed and cursed, slapping the expectant look on his face, and then asked the angry and cold-faced Butler Lu to go find someone to buy meat.
"Poor fool, I can only help you this far. I guess Butler Lu won't let you go in a while..."
Idiot is also a bitch, and he always wants to give Butler Lu some hidden trouble, but every time he feels happy for a while, he will always be unlucky for a long time afterwards...
The person in charge of purchasing left in a hurry. Xiao Han's order to take a day off did not seem to be implemented. Those who dug the cellar were still digging the cellar, and those who went to plow the land were still plowing. There were only a bunch of half-grown boys under the leadership of Butler Lu.
Pick up the stones and mud from the large open space, and tonight the Xiao Mansion's traditional repertoire, the bonfire party, will be held here!
Everyone was busy, only Xiao Han was looking around leisurely and wandering around.
Of course, no one would have any objections to this. In everyone's mind, the Marquis is not for working! And the Marquis Xiao, who can feed so many people, should have a good rest, but today the Marquis died.
It seems like two tails are missing...
They didn't know that poor tail Xiaodong was cleaning the house while having a runny nose. As for the other tailed fool, Xiao Han didn't know where he had gone, but his sixth sense told him that nothing good was waiting for him.
Xiao Han's sixth sense was very accurate. After Butler Lu arranged the purchase, he caught the idiot and gave him an ax with broken teeth like a saw. He also told him that his mission was to chop enough tonight.
The wood needed for the bonfire suddenly floated away with a constipated expression on Lunzi's face. Lunzi seemed to be able to hear the laughter in his stomach...
"Nanniwan back then was full of barren mountains...now Nanniwan is full of beautiful scenery~"
In a good mood, he hummed a little tune and walked deep into the grass without realizing it. Xiao Han especially liked such a pure and natural world.
Tao Yuanming's picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the Nanshan Mountains may be the deepest dream of countless people working hard in the city. Sometimes, Xiao Han thought that this life would just go by, peaceful, safe and happy.
happy!
But then I thought, no way! I am not a traitor who will care about the flood after I die. Thinking about the humiliation suffered by the great country in the future, Xiao Han feels guilty. The great man is right, if you fall behind, you will be beaten, and if
Even if I don't use my unique vision, I probably won't be able to see my ancestors if I go down there!
He dug into his pockets, wanting to review his ideals and encourage his recent laxity, but suddenly found that his planning drawings had been revised by the chief bookkeeper and others.
Xiao Han took a look at the newly revised drawings. Different from his "whimsical" plan, the plan of that group of people was completely designed according to a county. According to their words, it can be realized within fifty years. Of course, this must be done by Xiao Han's Holy Family.
In a prosperous situation...
However, although the general design on the drawings has changed, under Xiao Han's strong request, his strange buildings were still retained.
Just based on its function, the distribution is more reasonable. Xiao Han is still satisfied with this. After all, planning a city, even a small county town, is not something ordinary people can do, and a layman like him can only do it.
To really put it into practice, you need professionals!
