Tang Wanwan knew that many people had doubts about her ability, and felt that she just wanted to sensationalize herself in order to gain everyone's attention.
She really didn't mean it, because she thought she could complete it, so she just said it. She didn't expect that this news would be spread among people, and then the people watching the fun would be better than the people working.
It doesn't matter to Tang Wanwan if there are too many, she just wants to see them. Then take a good look at how they completed these three bamboo houses.
Bamboo houses are not like brick walls or earth walls, which need to be built piece by piece and require a lot of labor. Bamboo houses can be built one wall at a time.
She needs a total of ten walls for her three rooms. She will ask them to finish the walls of these ten bamboo houses first, and then press them into the appropriate positions like building blocks.
It is worth mentioning that when Tang Wanwan was building a house today, she had already asked the village chief to buy a bamboo forest on the west side of the mountain, spending a total of five taels of silver.
When Tang Wanwan went to the village chief to tell her about this, the village chief thought it was a piece of cake. Thinking of the last time Tang Wanwan gave him a large bowl of fine salt, he directly said that he would give those bamboos to her.
But Tang Wanwan refused and insisted on buying the land.
On weekdays, few people go to cut bamboos. They are usually left uncultivated, and there are not many other things in the countryside, and there are a lot of uncultivated lands. Bamboo has a very strong reproductive ability, so within a few years, all the barren hills on the other side of Xishan Mountain were covered with bamboo.
It is covered with bamboos. You can’t even dig out a piece of land to clear it. At first glance, it’s quite spectacular.
When Tang Wanwan came to him and offered him five taels of silver to buy all the bamboo and land here, the village chief really thought the girl was joking. When the money was received, he still seemed to be dreaming.
"Girl, have you discussed this matter with your mother? If your mother doesn't agree, I will return the money to you and treat those bamboos as gifts to you."
Not to mention, the village chief is quite interesting, much more humane than the patriarch and his sons.
However, Tang Wanwan will not make a loss-making business. These bamboos will be good things in the future. The bamboos can be used to make various bamboo utensils and build houses. Bamboo shoots can grow three times a year, spring bamboo shoots, autumn bamboo shoots and winter bamboo shoots.
Among them, winter bamboo shoots are the most delicious and tender, with the highest nutritional value and the most economic value. They can be dried in the sun and made into pickled bamboo shoots. Fresh bamboo shoots can also be made into canned bamboo shoots. Whether spring bamboo shoots or autumn bamboo shoots are dug at the right time
, if you dig the bamboo shoots when they first grow, you can still dig out tender bamboo shoots.
The most important thing is that there is a large pond next to this bamboo forest. If you expand this pond, you can put a lot of fish fry, and turn it into your own fish pond. If you have nothing to do, come here to fish, dig bamboo shoots, and think about it.
Just very happy.
The open land next to it can also be slowly opened up, and some trees, flowers, and crops can be planted. This will be her base in the future.
The village chief knew that Tang Wanwan wanted to cut down the bamboo to build a house, so he asked his son and grandson to help Tang Wanwan. Plus there were four grown men here, and soon the yard was filled with fresh bamboo.
.
Tang Wanwan divided the bamboos into several piles, and everyone split the bamboos together, and then fixed them with iron wires and bamboo strips. Each piece of wall was hung up in one piece, and then fixed on the built frame of the house, just like building a house.
Building blocks are average.
What Tang Wanwan didn't expect was that Tan Ling and Tan Song heard that she was going to build a house with bamboo and came to help. They smiled and said that they came to learn from her. Tan Song even wanted to become Tang Wanwan's teacher.
, and was rejected by her.
For the time being, she has no intention of accepting apprentices. They come to help her welcome them. If you want to see them, you can see them. Anyway, this is how she operates.
There is strength in numbers, and by the time it gets dark, the bamboo house has been completed.
Tang Wanwan looked at Lu Yujin and said, "Brother Lu, please, please bring those oilcloths."
"Yeah!" Lu Yujin handed the large roll of oilcloth he bought to Tang Wanwan, and then they set up a ladder and went up to the roof. It turned out that Tang Wanwan except for using bamboo to build the house, all the walls of the house were
Cover the outside with a layer of tarpaulin, and repaint the outside of the tarpaulin with lime powder. In this way, it is almost impossible to tell from the outside that the house is built of bamboo. Oilcloth and lime powder walls are also added inside the house. Each corner and two
The joints between the walls were all fixed with iron nails and wires, and the whole house was set up just like setting up a tent or building blocks.
The next morning, the white hut that everyone saw was the small bamboo house that Tang Wanwan built out of bamboo.
There are skylights on the top of the bamboo house. The windows can be opened during the day to let the sun shine into the house. There are also windows for ventilation. When you look up, you can see the scenery outside. It is better than the previous small earth house that was stuffy, damp and low. I don’t know.
How many times stronger.
Their family didn't have much in the first place, but within a short time, everything was moved.
Looking at their new home, Mrs. Chen couldn't believe it. Tang Xiaoyi and Tang Xiaorou were happily circling there. Tang Wei also smiled, looking at Tang Wanwan, feeling particularly proud and honored to have such a good sister.
Tang Wanwan invited them to eat grilled fish in the evening. It was considered a simple campfire dinner. A bonfire was set up in the yard with a grill on it. The dishes were quite rich. Everyone was grilling and eating delicious food.
They were very satisfied, but it was a pity that there was no wine. Otherwise, they would all be drunk.
Tan Ling and Tan Song finished dinner with Tang Wanwan and left reluctantly. Before leaving, Tan Song still did not give up the idea of becoming a disciple, but was pulled away by Tan Ling.
gone.
When going to bed at night, Tang Wanwan was very satisfied and hoped that life would get better and better!
Early the next morning, before Tang Wanwan got up, she heard Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang knocking on the door.
Mrs. Chen went to open the door and saw her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. She didn't know what to do at that time and looked a little embarrassed.
When Mrs. Zhang saw Mrs. Chen, she caught her and asked: "Third daughter-in-law, you don't mean what you say. I promised Awan to mend the wall for me. Now you have built your own new house."
"
When Mrs. Wang entered the door, she saw the beautiful house in front of her. Her eyes suddenly widened and she said with surprise: "My dear, is this really the house that you Ah Wan built yesterday? Am I not blinded?"
"
The house had just been built, and there was a faint fragrance of bamboo in the yard that hadn't dissipated yet. The lime powder on the walls hadn't dried yet, so it looked like it had been newly built.
"Sister-in-law, Ah Wan did this with her friends yesterday."
"Mom, I'm sorry, I wanted to talk to Ah Wan yesterday, but I forgot about it when I got busy. Do you think it's OK for me to talk to Ah Wan when she wakes up?"
"There is no need to build earthen walls. Just change my houses to look exactly like yours. I won't argue with you about the past." Mrs. Zhang didn't even blush when she said this. Who did she think she was!
