"That's right!" Lian Fangzhou saw that he cut to the point as soon as he opened his mouth, saving himself a lot of trouble, and nodded and smiled immediately: "So I came to ask Uncle Zhao Liu for help! The sooner you can find this person, the better! In terms of salary, Uncle Zhao Liu Tell the truth!"

Zhao Liu said with a smile: "I reckon you have to do this in the next few days, and everyone has already said hello! Since you are here today, why don't you just go and meet people! It will save you the trouble of going back and forth! This person Called Gu Shi, he works seriously and responsibly, and his skills are good, even the warehouse that the girl wants to build is not too complicated, so there is no need to find a craftsman who is too delicate! As long as it is practical!"

Lian Fangzhou couldn't help laughing and said: "Uncle Zhao Liu's words really touched my heart! What we country people are looking for is practical, and all those fancy things are useless!"

Zhao Liu laughed, got up and said, "Gu Shi's house is not far from my house, just two streets away, let's go now!"

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said yes, and went with Lian Ze and Ah Jian with Zhao Liu.

Zhao Liu had greeted Gu Shi before, and Gu Shi knew what was going on when he saw them coming. Introducing each other saves a lot of words.

After saying a few words briefly, Lian Fangzhou and A Jian looked at each other, then smiled and said: "It's getting late, why don't we find a small restaurant to have lunch first, and it's the same after dinner!"

Gu Shi was a little surprised when he heard Lian Fangzhou say this, and couldn't help but glance at her quickly. Although this is a small county town, and the people are all thumping common people, not as particular as those big families, Gu Shi was still a little surprised that even Fangzhou wanted to invite them to dinner.

"That's fine! How about this, I'll be the host for this meal, Xiao Fulai's roasted mutton is very good, let's go there! Eat mutton and drink mutton soup this day, and your whole body will be warm!" Zhao Liu laughed.

Even Fangzhou didn't refuse him a few words of politeness, looked at A Jian, and said with a smile: "It's hard to bear it like this! When the house is completed, I will be the host to invite the big guy, and then I will call Uncle Liu to go to the house together. Thank you guys!"

Zhao Liu said with a smile: "Even the girl is fine with other things, but she is too polite! I will talk about it next time, let's go, let's go to Xiaofu!"

Xiao Fulai is at the corner of this East Street. The store is not small or big, clean and tidy, with eight or nine tables inside.

Zhao Liu is obviously a regular customer here, seeing him coming, the shopkeeper smiled and came out from behind the counter to greet him.

Although the store is small, there are two small private rooms separated by a screen at one end. After a few polite greetings with a smile, the shopkeeper invited them all over.

"Sixth Master is still the same as usual?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

Zhao Liu nodded with a smile and said, "Hurry up and come up with the ones you picked up. After you finish eating, you still have things to do! Just serve a jug of wine!"

"Okay! Wait a moment, everyone, it will be ready soon!" The shopkeeper yelled in agreement, turned around and went out to call the waiter.

Everyone sat down and chatted a few gossips, and the dishes were served bowl by bowl. The dishes were served in large bowls, heavy in oil and ingredients, steaming hot and fragrant, which was very tempting.

Zhao Liu was the head of the house, calling everyone to put down their chopsticks, except Lian Fangzhou, who poured wine for everyone. He also asked Lian Ze with a smile: "Ah Ze, would you like to drink a little too?"

Drinking is something only grown-ups can do, Lian Ze is naturally happy, nodded repeatedly and said, "Yeah!"

Zhao Liu laughed loudly, gave a thumbs up and said, "That's great! This is just like a man!"

Lian Ze puffed out his chest and said, "Of course, I still want to protect my sister!"

Everyone who said it laughed.

Zhao Liu knew that Lian Fangzhou and the others still had things to do, so there was no delay in the meal. After eating, they checked out and left, saying goodbye to each other.

"Miss Lian, Lao Gu is an expert, you can discuss with him about buying materials and so on! If you need my help with anything, you are welcome to come to my house to find me! If I am not here, my wife and I will help you." It's the same as leaving a message!"

Lian Fangzhou responded with a smile.

After sending Zhao Liu away, Lian Fangzhou said to Gu Shi: "Why don't you sit in a teahouse first, I want to talk to Uncle Gu about a lot of things! And the blueprint, I also want to hear Uncle Gu first." Views!"

This was exactly Gu Shi's concern, he couldn't just read the materials like this, it would be too hasty! Hearing that it was exactly what he wanted, he nodded and smiled and said, "This is the best!"

The few people entered the tea house again, asked for a clean seat, ordered a pot of fragrant tea, ordered four or five dishes of dim sum melon seeds, and chatted.

Lian Fangzhou first took out the drawings and unfolded them, and told Gu Shi one by one his plans and ideas. Gu Shi read them carefully and asked a few questions from time to time.

After talking about it in detail, Gu Shi probably had an idea in his mind, what kind of materials he wanted, how much of which kind of materials he needed, etc.

"If Miss Lian is not in a hurry to go home, let's go to the material market and have a look!" Gu Shi laughed.

Lian Fangzhou nodded and said, "You can get bricks and tiles from Shiwan. There is a shop there that specializes in this. I think everything is good and the price is fair!"

"I was about to say that!" Gu Shi naturally had no objection.

Gu Shi led the way, and the few people went to the material market.

Gu Shi is an old acquaintance in the material market, and he knows all kinds of prices well. In fact, Lian Fangzhou doesn't need to worry about it.

With Zhao Liu's favor, Lian Fangzhou believed that Gu Shi would not cheat him.

What Lian Fangzhou wanted to discuss with Gu Shi was which material to buy. After all, there are so many types, and the quality of each one is also different, but it is not easy for Gu Shi to decide, and Lian Fangzhou has to make the decision himself.

Lian Fangzhou didn't really understand, and she still didn't understand when she introduced her briefly while walking and taking care of her. Fortunately, Ah Jian seemed to be able to understand Gu Shi's words better, and he probably asked a few words before making sure. down.

The four of them wandered around for about an hour and a half, basically seeing everything they had to see, and even Fangzhou, who was a happy person, paid a deposit.

When we parted, I advanced twenty taels of silver to Gu Shi, and said with a smile: "In the future, there will be Uncle Lao Gu! Our family provides lunch. If it is convenient, it is best to start work in these two days!"

Gu Shi smiled and said: "That's no problem! Brothers are also idle for a while! I'll tell you tonight, and then I'll prepare. Tomorrow, I'll ask a few people to send some of the materials there first, and I'll lead people to lay the foundation the day after tomorrow!"

"Yes!" Lian Fangzhou nodded with a smile, and asked, "I won't prepare the meal for tomorrow. How many people will there be the day after tomorrow?"

Gu Shi thought for a while and said with a smile, "There are about fourteen or five!"

Lian Fangzhou nodded to mark it down, and both parties bid farewell to each other.

"It looks like we'll be busy for a while!" Lian Fangzhou laughed.

A Jian glanced at her and said: "I'm fine, don't be too tired, take a rest."

"Yes, sister," Lian Ze also hurriedly said: "Leave the matter here to me and Brother Ajian. You can cook at home with Grandma Sangu in the future!"
