Chapter 299 The food at the county lord’s house is really delicious

After Wei Yingzi gave the craftsmen instructions, she let them go back, after all, the neighbors next door had not finished moving yet.

The Black Tiger Guards stayed and had dinner with Su Yujiao and the others, while also guarding the safety of the yard.

The five people felt that it was a waste of their talents to be bricklayers, and even the salary of thirty cents a day was not worth their while.

But I have to admit that the food at the county lady's house is really good. Every meal is different and everything tastes delicious.

They had a big pot of braised noodles and seaweed egg drop soup for lunch. The noodles were soft and fragrant, and the side dishes were beans and pork belly. It was so delicious.

It is much more flavorful than the steamed food they usually eat.

There is also the simple seaweed egg drop soup, which has a light taste but is full of flavor.

In the evening, we had pork stewed with vermicelli, with side dishes of black fungus, green vegetables, tofu shreds, and two big steamed buns. It was so delicious that I almost swallowed it with my tongue.

After eating and drinking their fill, the five people suddenly felt that this was not a hard job. It was a nice job to eat and drink, and they could do more of it in the future.

They want to stay at the county lady's house and eat for the rest of their lives!

The next morning, several people got up before dawn to practice sword-fighting. This was a habit they had developed over the years.

As a result, not long after, a group of young boys gathered in the backyard and started practicing panting.

Some people couldn't stand it anymore. What kind of kung fu is this? His punches are weak and powerless. He seems to be joking.

So, several people took the initiative to act as coaches, correcting their mistakes and watching them train.

"Hit fast."

"Keep your steps steady!"

The five Black Tiger Guards practiced with Hu Zi and the others for an hour and a half, and then they heard Xiao Tao calling for dinner in the front yard.

The children all ran to the front yard in a circle.

If you do n’t eat positively, you have problems with your thinking!

The five of them also went to the front yard and were looking forward to breakfast at the county lady's house.

Soy milk, tea eggs, meat buns and red fruits are not very sweet but very delicious.

It has meat, eggs, vegetables and other staple foods, making it a very nutritious breakfast.

The five people found that the county lady and her two children ate the same food as them and did not have any separate meals.

This surprised them a little, as this would absolutely not happen in other mansions.

Not to mention that the master and the servants ate the same food, even the legitimate sons, illegitimate sons, wives, and concubines had different meal standards.

There are strict divisions into different levels!

There are very few families like the county lord's that treat every servant equally.

After breakfast, the workers came to work.

One of the foremen asked, "County Lady, what kind of yard do you want to build? Do you have any blueprints?"

Normally, he should have come alone today, confirmed the building blueprints with the owner, and then asked the workers to come.

But the owner instructed them yesterday to come to work early this morning.

Therefore, all of them, about a hundred people, came.

Su Yujiao said, "Instead of building houses, just build a high wall around these six courtyards."

"Ah? Repair the courtyard wall?"

"Yes, just repair the courtyard wall!"

If there is still time after the courtyard wall is built, we will build a high-rise building with cement and steel bars.

It’s much sturdier than the house they live in now!

And one building can accommodate a lot of people!

But it also requires time and technology, so we should build the courtyard wall and the city wall first, and building the building will have to be put off until later.

Foreman Chen was surprised and asked, "It takes so many people to build a courtyard wall?"

"County Lady, you may not understand how these jobs are done. Repairing the courtyard wall is very simple and does not require so many people."

Su Yujiao smiled. This contractor was a real man. He was afraid that she would spend too much money, so he went out of his way to explain it.

"I know I won't need that many people, but I want to finish the repair within three days, so I have to hire more workers."

These workers, like the five Black Tiger Guards, will all participate in the construction of the city tower in the future.

She estimated that Boss Wang would be able to help her prepare a large amount of cement and steel bars in three days.

Therefore, these people should practice with her first.

Only after these people have gained experience can they lead others to build the city wall.

After all, this is a big project that requires thousands of people. If she were to teach them one by one, she would be exhausted to death.

Foreman Chen thought about it and decided that with so many people building the wall and the area was not too big, it would be no problem to complete it within three days.

"Does the county lord want to tear down all these old walls and raise them higher?"

"No."

"Build a new wall around these old walls. Make it taller, thicker, and stronger."

Foreman Chen was puzzled: "Why is this?"

"It's not built like this. How ugly would that be?"

"Just build it as I say and you won't be afraid of looking bad."

"Row."

"I'll take you to see the materials."

"What are these?"

"Will the county lord use these to repair the courtyard wall?"

"Exactly."

Foreman Chen looked embarrassed: "But... I have never seen these before, I don't know how to use them."

"I teach you."

"I will guide you throughout the three days. Just do what I say."

"Row."

Foreman Chen was very interested in these things, especially the iron rods, which looked very strong.

"You must study hard. Whether you can be valued by the court in the future depends on your hard work now."

"Is he valued by the court?" Everyone became interested.

"The imperial court is also going to build this kind of palace wall?"

"You will know in three days."

"Let's get started."

"Come out with me first. Dig a deep trench along the line I've drawn to lay the foundation stone."

"Yes."

"Tiger One and Tiger Two, you guys should dig together too. You can only learn by doing it yourself."

Several Black Tiger Guards were stunned. Tiger One and Tiger Two?

Are you calling them?

"I'm calling you. I can't remember your names, so it's easier this way."

"..."

"Yes."

More than a hundred people dug the ditch at the same time, and soon dug a deep ditch around the house.

Then Su Yujiao would only take the next step.

After the steel frame was built, they were taught how to mix cement and the ratio of cement to sand and gravel.

Three days passed in a flash, and a high wall was built. Although it seemed out of tune with the surrounding buildings, it gave people a sense of security.

"You guys, install these electric fences around the courtyard wall."

After the power grid was installed, Su Yujiao tried it out and found it was very powerful.

The wall around the small courtyard in the east of the city attracted many people to watch and discuss.

I don’t know why the county lord built such a high wall around the yard. It is as high as a second-story building, like a small city wall.

Su Yujiao also had all the big trees near the courtyard wall cut down to prevent people from climbing over the wall.

In fact, even if there were trees nearby, it would not be easy to climb over the wall. After all, the wall was too smooth, without any bumps, and there was no foothold at all.

Not to mention those Gu masters who only have brute force, even masters of Qinggong would find it difficult to enter.
