Chapter 187 Asking for Feng Shui
After hearing what Xu Miao said, Village Chief Han began to discuss with several old villagers in Hanjia Village about building a new house there.
When building a new house, the site selection is of paramount importance and cannot be sloppy at all.
You need to find a place with good feng shui to protect your home from peace and prosperity.
A good Feng Shui site needs to be carefully selected so that the new house can carry the happiness and well-being of the whole family and become the foundation for generations to live and work in peace and contentment.
Village Chief Han began to talk about this with Xu Miao, and Xu Miao laughed at Village Chief Han and his friends for being superstitious.
Village Chief Han stiffened his neck and yelled at Xu Miao, "Ah Miao, you mustn't disbelieve this. Feng Shui is a very complicated thing!"
"Hey, you're young and don't understand these things. Don't get involved in building a house. Go take the boss and do other things."
"We'll tell you once we've chosen a location."
Xu Miao was happy to ignore the matter. She really didn't have time to waste with these old villagers and discuss asking the gods for help.
Later, Village Chief Han and his men actually invited a Feng Shui expert to come to Hanjia Village.
When the immortal arrived at Hanjia Village, Xu Miao was taking the Han brothers to welcome the workers who came to work.
As soon as the workers entered Hanjia Village, they saw Village Chief Han and several elderly villagers following a man with a compass and an immortal look.
As Village Chief Han and his companions walked, they were muttering something devoutly.
The workers asked Boss Han curiously.
"Brother, what are you doing in Hanjia Village? Why did you invite a Taoist priest?"
"I see this Taoist priest is holding a compass. Is Hanjia Village doing feng shui?"
A worker who knew something about Feng Shui started to ask.
Boss Han didn't dare say much about his father and the others' enthusiasm for inviting a fortune teller to look at their feng shui.
If he dared to object at home, his father and mother would kick him out of the house.
Boss Han replied shyly, "We're looking at Feng Shui. We're going to build some new houses in Hanjia Village. My father and the elders in the village all believe in it, so they invited a Taoist priest to come and choose a good location for our Hanjia Village."
When the workers heard this, they were all amazed in their hearts.
Look at the life people in Hanjia Village live in. They even have to consult a feng shui master before building a house.
If they could choose a place with good feng shui to build a new house, Hanjia Village would become even more prosperous!
The people in Kangzhuang also saw Village Chief Han and his companions following the immortal in a mysterious manner.
When the people of Kangzhuang heard that Hanjia Village was going to choose a new location to build new houses, they were so jealous that their eyes turned red.
If they had known that Hanjia Village would have such good fortune, the first thing they would do upon arrival would be to ask Village Chief Han to sign the indenture contract.
If they were also official villagers of Hanjia Village, they would be able to move into their new houses soon.
Xu Miao didn't pay much attention to what Village Chief Han and the others said. She knew that building a house was a big deal.
Xu Miao was also happy that Village Chief Han and his team could find a location with excellent feng shui.
Although she was not involved in this matter, she sincerely hoped that Village Chief Han could choose a good address.
Feng Shui is metaphysics.
It took Xu Miao and Boss Han several days of hard work to finally settle more than 5,000 workers.
There are not enough houses in Hanjia Village to accommodate so many people. Now these workers are living in the temporary tents built by Xu Miao and others.
We are just waiting for Village Chief Han and others to select a new address, and then some simple houses will be built on the old site of Hanjia Village.
Coal mining can only be done in spring, summer and autumn.
In the winter in northern Xinjiang, the ground is frozen solid and impossible to dig.
During these three seasons, some temporary tents can accommodate many workers.
First, arrange these workers to dig coal and build temporary houses. Xu Miao and his team are too busy now.
During this period, all the people in Hanjia Village who were able to work were so busy that they didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
Xu Miao and her colleagues were busy arranging the workers to start mining, and General Liu also sent a convoy to transport coal.
This caravan was arranged for Hanjia Village by the city lord, and Xu Miao did not ask about the specific price.
After the carriage was filled with coal, it was pulled out of Hanjia Village and headed towards the military camp in the north.
All the villagers of Hanjia Village were standing on the road at the entrance of the village, watching the convoys go away.
These carriages carry not only coal, but also their hope for a better tomorrow.
Xu Miao and his colleagues were busy like this until winter when the ground began to freeze.
The mining in Hanjia Village this year has come to an end.
Xu Miao brought Village Chief Han to settle the wages for all the workers, and also discussed with the workers the time to start work the next year.
Only then were all these workers sent to Hanjia Village.
Hanjia Village ended a year of hustle and bustle and returned to peace again.
Xu Miao brought Manager Hou and Village Chief Han to the newly built meeting hall in Hanjia Village to calculate the total account of Hanjia Village for the year.
Shopkeeper Hou moved the abacus beads very quickly. Xu Miao and Village Chief Han stared at his nimble hands.
They are eagerly looking forward to the amount of coal mined by their Hanjia Village this year.
It didn't take long for Manager Hou to calculate the total account.
He smiled and said to Xu Miao and Village Chief Han, "This year, Hanjia Village mined a total of 140,000 kilograms of coal."
"Excluding all the miscellaneous expenses of Hanjia Village this year, Hanjia Village earned a total of 8,000 taels of silver."
"I have signed all these documents. Miss Xu, please wait for you to get them to Dingzhou City and send a copy to General Liu."
“There’s nothing else I can do.”
Shopkeeper Hou only counted and didn't ask about anything else.
After hearing what Manager Hou said, Village Chief Han immediately broke into a big smile.
Oh my goodness! Hanjia Village earned eight thousand taels of silver from this coal mine in a single year. Just now, Shopkeeper Hou said that this silver was pure profit.
If this money were to be divided among the people of Hanjia Village, how much silver would each household get?
Village chief Han now wanted to jump up and roar a few times to suppress the joy in his heart.
After hearing what Manager Hou said, Xu Miao was also very excited.
Eight thousand taels of silver was the first year's income for their Hanjia Village.
By next year, this figure could double. Calculated this way, in five years, every household in Hanjia Village would be able to earn a good sum of money and no longer have to worry about making a living.
The next day, Xu Miao came to Dingzhou City again with the document signed by Manager Hou.
When he met General Liu, the general was also very happy when he heard about Hanjia Village's income this year.
If Hanjia Village can make money, he can make money.
He didn't do much, just sent some soldiers to garrison in Hanjia Village.
This coal mine is really a profitable business. No wonder Zhou Chenli bought all the land around Hanjia Village at the beginning.
