First, he returned along the original path.
He Yuzhu passed by the entrance of Emei Restaurant and walked for another seven to eight minutes before arriving at the alley where his master lived.
He went to his master's house to receive the rainwater. He took the invitation card from his master's wife and led the rainwater home.
He had made an appointment with Second Uncle two days ago. Today, he would bring Master to see his courtyard.
It was better to go back early than to have someone wait for him at the door.
It was almost three o'clock when he got home.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she realized that the door to He Daqing's room was unlocked.
She pushed the door open and saw He Daqing drinking tea at the table.
He Yuzhu was slightly taken aback." You didn't go to work?”
If he remembered correctly, didn't the rolling mill only have one day off on Sunday?
" He skipped work." He Daqing looked up at He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu reacted to this look.
She thought of the bad idea she had given He Daqing before, asking him to use the opportunity to exchange for the three main rooms next door.
It seemed that He Daqing was quite trustworthy.
He was going to leave with the widow next Monday and would be off for worship tomorrow. Today, he actually found an opportunity to fulfill his promise.
He Yuzhu didn't talk about this topic for long. She led the rainwater back to her room.
He found a comic book of Journey to the West and read the story with the help of the rain. He was familiar with the few words on it.
After a while, she heard He Daqing talking to someone in the courtyard.
He Yuzhu led the rain towards the door and heard He Daqing's shout," Zhu Zi, your second uncle is here."”
He Yuzhu pushed the door open and came out. She smiled as she invited Liu Cheng and the three middle-aged men he brought into the house.
After entering He Daqing's room, He Yuzhu poured a bowl of tea for the four of them with rock sugar.
After the four of them drank and warmed up, he introduced the general situation of his courtyard to the three people Liu Cheng brought.
After that, when the older one of the three asked to take a look, He Yuzhu took out the key and led them to the backyard.
He unlocked the door and led her into the courtyard.
He was a professional. This time, he did not even need He Yuzhu's introduction. He had already walked around and had a rough idea in his heart.
When they were done looking around the courtyard, the older one asked He Yuzhu," We're done looking around the courtyard. We know the general situation.
"How are you going to build this courtyard?
"We'll have to trouble you to tell us what specific requirements you have.”
He Yuzhu did not stand on ceremony with them and led them around the courtyard again.
"I don't have many requirements for the main room and the side rooms. I just need to restore them according to the original style.
"However, I'll have to trouble you to help modify the side rooms on both sides of the main room.
" I'm going to turn this side into a kitchen." He Yuzhu pointed to the east wing and pointed to the west wing." I'm going to turn this side into a bathroom."
"You don't have to worry about not knowing how to do this. I'll give you the blueprint when the time comes. You just have to modify it according to my drawing.
"Also, this wing room in the east wing. When the time comes, we'll modify it according to the blueprint I gave you.”
After saying that, he led her to the back seat." I'm going to open up these three rooms and make them into a big living room. Please help me take a look and see if it's possible.”
The old master walked around the inverted seats that were separated by three rooms and studied them inside and out. He gave an affirmative answer.
"That's not a problem. The walls in the middle of the three rooms are not load bearing walls. There are pillars supporting them. Once they are broken through, it will not affect the main body.”
" That's good." He Yuzhu nodded and continued with his request," All the main rooms, side rooms, wing rooms, inverted seats, roofs, and walls should be in the original style."
"It's this floor. I'm going to cover it with a layer of floor heating.”
"Floor heating?"
The three old craftsmen were puzzled.
" Yes." He Yuzhu pondered for two seconds before explaining in a different way," It's an improved version of the brick bed.
"I'll give you the blueprints for the specific laying method later. I've also prepared the materials. You can just lay them according to them.
"When the time comes, we'll first lay a layer of floor heating pipes and then lay a floor on top.”
"We'll try our best."
Because they had never done this before, the three of them did not say anything.
Seeing that they were willing to take it, He Yuzhu nodded and led them to the backyard.
"My requirements for the backyard and front yard are similar.
"Just follow the original layout and renovate everything that should be there.”
"The original structure?"
The older craftsman subconsciously looked at He Yuzhu." The fake mountains, pavilions, flower beds, and artificial lakes have all been restored?”
He Yuzhu nodded." Just help me repair the mold."
"As for what to put inside and how to use it, that's my business.”
"No problem."
This job was within the scope of their business, so the three of them agreed without hesitation.
"Alright, that's about it. If I think of anything else, I'll tell you when the time comes.”
After chatting, he brought her back to He Daqing's room.
He Yuzhu poured some tea for them. After they drank two sips, he said," We're done with the courtyard. Now, let's talk about the salary."
"What I mean is that you should trouble yourself to find a few more people. We'll try our best to finish the work before next Sunday.
"It's not easy to work in this winter, so I won't hesitate to increase my salary.
"All of you are professionals. Please help me calculate how much it will cost to finish the work within a week.”
The three of them did not speak directly. Instead, they went out to discuss.
After He Yuzhu had finished half of the tea in the teapot, the three of them walked back.
"We'll take your job.
"It's just that, as you said, it's indeed not easy to start construction on such a day, so the salary is a little more expensive.
"The snow in front of the field has almost melted. The days have been pretty good these past few days.
"But no one knows when the second snow will come.
"Therefore, the three of us plan to lead a team each.
"One team will be responsible for one piece first. Whoever finishes first will help each other.
"In this way, we can try to finish the work for you in the shortest time within a week.
"Then, regardless of how many people we hired, we worked for a total of a few days.
"Just treat it as giving us the entire project package.
"A total of 500 yuan.
"If we can finish the project ahead of time, we'll earn more.
"If we exceed the budget, we will make up for the losses ourselves.
"What do you think?"
Five hundred?
Within a week, as fast as possible?
He Yuzhu calculated in his heart. According to the price that Second Master had calculated two days ago, it would cost about 400 yuan to complete the project in a week.
But that was based on restoring the courtyard to its original state as much as possible.
Now, not only did he want to restore most of the place to its original state, but he also made some requests that others had never done before.
In addition, they had promised to complete the project within a week. They would only do it in advance and not delay it. This was also a risk.
With this calculation, 500 yuan for the entire project did not seem to be too much.
He Yuzhu nodded lightly.
"Okay, 500 then."
After saying that, he turned his head and gave He Daqing a look." Give me a hundred yuan first."”
He Daqing, who had been listening and watching the show, was dumbfounded.
"What the hell?
"I'll pay for it?"
