Ah Jian was not in a hurry to take out the food from the basket, otherwise it would be bad if it got cold later, so she stood there leading the donkey and talking to Lian Fangzhou.
After a while, Lian Ze also came over, and smiled and called, "Sister, Brother Ajian!"
Lian Fangzhou smiled and asked, "How is it? How are you doing this morning?"
"Well," Lian Ze nodded and said, "Uncles are all good at work! They all work hard! It's really difficult to clean up this place, and no one complains!"
Lian Fangzhou heard that he spoke clearly and coherently, so she smiled and praised him a few times.
It didn't take long for them to finish their work and wash their hands. Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "Everyone, let's have a rest and come over for dinner! After finishing the road in the afternoon, we can call it a day. Come back tomorrow." Do the work here!"
The people who built the road were refreshed when they heard this, and they all smiled and said that the owner was kind.
There are still more than two miles left, so many people can repair it in an hour and a half at most.
"The hostess really didn't say anything, this lunch is really real, it didn't coax us for nothing!" One person came over and looked at it and said with a smile.
"That's not it! It's rare to see a boss like this, and it's our good luck to meet you!" Everyone laughed and said yes.
Lian Fangzhou laughed and said, "Everyone worked hard, that's what they should be!"
A Jianjian called for two strong people to come and help them take the things out of the bamboo basket. Lian Fangzhou spread the oilcloth bought yesterday on the floor and put it on it, it was very clean.
After the arrangement was completed and a greeting was given, everyone took turns to come up to get food. Each person had a pair of bowls and chopsticks. The bowls were filled with soup, the chopsticks held the vegetables used to roll pancakes, and the steamed buns were taken directly in their hands.
They were all acquaintances of each other, and they were honest and down-to-earth people. There was no one rushing and shoving. Lian Fangzhou couldn't help but nodded secretly. The people Zhao Liu called were really good.
Of course, this was because he looked at Liu Jia's face, Lian Fangzhou thought in his heart that he would have to thank Liu Jia again next time.
You can't let people say a word of gratitude in vain without leaving a single heart.
Even the food brought by Fangzhou was wiped out, she felt a little sorry, and said with a smile: "I don't know if you are full, I will prepare some more tomorrow, no matter what, I can't let everyone work hungry!"
Everyone laughed and said: "I'm full, I'll do it like this tomorrow, it's just right, the hostess doesn't have to work too hard!"
Lian Fangzhou smiled and said a few words to everyone. Seeing that this was the case, he stopped insisting.
After resting for a while, Ah Jian called a man named Li Qing and asked him to lead the others to build the road there first, and he left two more people here to help light the fire together.
The man named Li Qing agreed, and then greeted everyone to go.
Lian Fangzhou saw that Li Qing was about forty years old, with a strong body, a dark face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, very energetic, and looked very stable and capable. As soon as he greeted, everyone agreed to follow, and no one showed any reluctance or dissatisfaction. It can be seen that this is a leader in this group of people.
It's hard for Ah Jian to have discernment, so he picked this person at a glance. Lian Fangzhou couldn't help secretly praising him, and couldn't help but glance at Ah Jian.
Ah Jian just happened to be looking at her, she seemed to understand Lian Fangzhou's eyes, and smiled at her, Lian Fangzhou was a little embarrassed, but also smiled concealedly, and said: "Let's light the fire now." Bar!"
A Jian nodded, "Yes", pointed in one direction and said, "Go over there to light the fire, it's just downwind. Make a few more places, and work can start tomorrow!"
A few people went there together, and Ah Jian arranged which places to light the fire, and the remaining two went separately, and Ah Jian, Lian Fangzhou, and Lian Ze were also in charge of several places.
In Lian Ze's opinion, this task was very interesting, so he was eager to try it and couldn't wait, rubbing his hands from time to time, looking at Lian Fangzhou eagerly with bright eyes.
How could Lian Fangzhou not know his little thoughts, "Puchi" smiled, and said: "Come on, let's follow you, brother Ajian, I'll let you have some fire!"
"Hey! Sister, don't worry, I'll order whatever Brother Ajian asks you to order!" Lian Ze was overjoyed and agreed with a busy smile.
Ah Jian and Lian Fangzhou laughed when they heard this.
Ah Jian turned to Lian Fangzhou and said, "It's enough for us to watch over here, you can send the things back first, and you don't have to come here again in the afternoon!"
Even Fangzhou was a little hungry, so he agreed with a smile, packed his things and went back.
Here, Lian Ze, A Jian, and the two people who left to light the fire quickly lit the fire, a total of eight places were lit.
It was already a dry winter, but with the help of the mountain wind, the fire quickly ignited and turned into a prairie fire.
Soon, the raging fire burned into one piece, the orange color was warm, and it crackled wherever it went, and countless soot and fine grass clippings that were too late to burn were flying in the air.
Looking at the fire, Lian Ze blushed with excitement, and stood there with Ah Jian, watching with a smile.
Ah Jian waited until all the thousand acres of wasteland had been burned, and carefully surveyed the boundary to make sure that it would not cause a wildfire, so she asked Lian Ze to leave together.
The sun is gradually moving towards the west, and the road construction over there is coming to an end.
Ah Jian asked Lian Ze to wait, and she planned to go up to help, and everyone laughed and said: "This is a job that can be done in just a moment and a half, Brother Jian, you don't need it!"
Ah Jian saw that it was the same, so she didn't go forward again, and waited with Lian Ze with a smile.
When everyone finished their work, Ah Jian said: "That's it for today! Come back tomorrow at this point!" He and Lian Ze handed over the wages one by one.
Back home, Ah Jianjian briefly explained to Lian Fangzhou, saying that everything is done and the wasteland can be reclaimed tomorrow. Even Fangzhou was relieved.
After dinner, she went to Aunt Zhang's house again.
Tomorrow, Uncle Li will help build the cowshed, so she has to express it no matter what.
Seeing her coming, Uncle Li smiled and said, "Fangzhou, you're here! I was talking about going to your house with your Aunt Zhang!"
"How can I let Uncle Li make this trip!" Lian Fangzhou laughed.
Aunt Zhang beckoned her to sit down and said with a smile, "We are all neighbors, so why are we so particular? It's fine if you come, let Uncle Li talk to you!"
Uncle Li smiled, and told Lian Fangzhou exactly.
"I called four people to help, and they were all kind and hardworking. In addition, there are only six of us, father and son. I think it will take less than two days to finish the job! I bought everything, and it will be delivered to my door tomorrow morning. You see, it would be the best if you could be at home tomorrow! The wood, boards, nails and fir bark for the roof cost about two taels of silver!"
Uncle Li told Lian Fangzhou about all the specific expenses one by one, and asked her if there was anything else she wanted to explain
He is illiterate, but has a good memory.
