Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 686
"Brother, the three of us are all carpenters. Is it easy to find work in Ruyang City recently?"

Just after dinner, several people were in a hurry to inquire about the news, hoping to find some work as soon as possible to support the whole family. They always lived and ate at other people's homes.

"Oh, it's not so easy to find these days. The Queen Mother has passed away. Marriage is forbidden for three months. Those who were originally engaged to make a dowry have postponed it indefinitely."

Father Erya sighed. If building a dowry is the cheapest, it can be done at home. People in the village want to get married, and they also have to accompany them with beds and cabinets. They can earn some money. Now Ruyang City recruits people to build houses or House repairs.

"But you said that your two sons are blacksmiths, so it should be easy to find."

Seeing his words, Erya's father made several people feel very disappointed, and drooped his head without saying a word. He hastened to add that if it is not possible, the pier also invites people to resist sandbags.

"The carpentry work of our brothers is okay, but nothing else."

The brothers all frowned and sighed, thinking about what they could do to support their family, small business was not enough, all the money was robbed by bandits, and a big son had no capital.

"Mai Dong, go find Er Ya Niang and come to the carriage to talk."

Qingli felt that it was inconvenient for her to talk directly to so many people, so Mai Dong called Erya Niang to ask the craftsmen this question, they can provide accommodation by the sea, these people can do work, and these women can help with washing ,Cook.

"Miss, are you looking for me?"

It was the first time for Erya to get into a carriage, and she was still a little cautious. Last night, Erya said that the carriage was very luxurious, bigger than the carriage of the local rich man in the village, and there were exquisite carvings and tapestries around it. When she got into the carriage, malt Burning incense to soothe the nerves.

"Well, I have something to tell you. Don't be restrained."

Qingli smiled lightly, and asked Malt to take out a plate of fruits and vegetables from the drawer of the small table. These were apples and pears produced in the space, as well as green apricots and mulberries, which people like to eat most at this time, and the plate was full.

Qingli used to like to eat mulberry, which is sour and sweet, but after eating it, she stuck out her tongue, and the whole tongue turned purple. One night, she almost screamed out in fright, because of this, her servants also Rarely buy mulberries.

"That's right, is your family willing to move to the seaside?"

Qingli mentioned that she has a workshop by the sea, but she didn’t specifically mention it as a dock. She only said that there is a shortage of manpower, carpenters and blacksmiths. As long as the family agrees to go, they can make arrangements for it. There are also newcomers who don’t worry about it. Can't find a job.

Working at the seaside at home, the salary is good, and the food is all provided by the house, white flour steamed buns, rice dry rice, and sea fish, prawns, crabs, and meat can often be eaten. Before she left, she had someone transport some soil. , spread in wooden boxes, you can also grow some vegetables to eat.You don’t need to bring anything with you when you go. Clothes are provided there all year round, and there are also items needed in daily life, as long as you work hard.

"This treatment is too good."

The second girl couldn't believe it. The child's father is just a small carpenter. Although he works diligently, he can't earn so much money. He can still take care of his family, and she can also work along with him, earning double the money. Parents don't need it either. Don't worry, you don't have to work, there are subsidies, and there are steaming meals, three meals a day, you don't have to worry about being hungry, this is really meeting a noble person!
"As long as you are diligent, you can discuss it with your family. By the way, ask these people who came today. If you are willing, I will write a post."

Qing Li and Er Ya Niang explained, "My family has a flower shop in Ruyang, which is in the center. You take the post I wrote and go to the shopkeeper. After he sees it, he will arrange for you to go."

"By the way, I need to explain one thing. This work requires signing a labor contract. The time must be at least one year. There will be rest time every other period. Please listen to the specific arrangement."

"Miss, I know, I'll go talk to the child's father, I think he will definitely be willing to go."

Er Ya Niang happily got off the carriage, she really met a nobleman, she was worried at first, after this job is done, the next job is not known where, the family needs to save some money, who would have thought of coming from her hometown After losing these people, who had left their hometown, she could also feel the pain, so she bit the bullet and made them a full breakfast, using up one-third of the rice noodles in one go.

An hour later, Er Ya Niang came back with a smile on her face, her family members were all willing, and those refugees from Muyang were even more willing, and wanted to kowtow to Qing Li, thank you for working for them Opportunity.

Qingli wrote a post, put it in an envelope, and handed it to Erya Niang, and asked them to pack a few pieces of underwear. At that time, at the flower shop, the shopkeeper will arrange for them to take a carriage to the beach. Don't worry on the way, there are people take care of.

On the way back, I was in the carriage every day. Time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was the 25th of June in the lunar calendar. Qingli's family had been delayed on the road for a whole month. During this month, many things happened, including Muyang breaking the city in the south. For the displaced people, the uncle's family gave some food and money for emergency relief, and they did everything they could to help those poor people.

"Miss, there is a letter from Kyoto."

Early in the morning, everyone was ready to go at the inn. After walking for a day, they would be able to reach the area under the jurisdiction of Fengyang, and they would be home immediately. In the past two days, the family members were in a good mood, with smiles on their faces.

Qingli slept soundly this time, she stretched her body, took the letter from Mai Dong, it was from Shen Bingyu, reporting the progress of the dock.Now the craftsmen have a huge team of more than 100 people. They have divided a piece of land on the beach and built a wall. Lu Jin is in charge of it. Everything is going smoothly. Shen Bingyu said that the carpenter and blacksmith Qingli found later , the workmanship is good, the work is also diligent, not lazy, the wife of the family can also do odd jobs in the dock, and do some washing and cooking on weekdays. It has been almost a month since I started working, and I have eaten pork and fish in the sea ten times. All the shrimps are bought from those fishermen. The fish that could not be sold before are now sold. The fishermen are also very grateful to themselves. When they are free, they will come to help and do some odd jobs of moving wood.

After Qingli looked at it, she couldn't help nodding. This was exactly what she thought in her heart. Treating these craftsmen well would allow them to serve themselves better. Work hard, this time is to build a warship that can go to sea. Compared with the fleet of Cuihualou, to be more advanced, it must have certain attack and anti-strike capabilities.

Shen Bingyu's letter later praised Du Juan. Du Juan was very neat in handling things. Shen Bingyu taught her for a few days and asked her to check the accounts independently. It can be regarded as a capable helper.In the letter, there is a small matter to discuss with Qingli, which is Du Juan's marriage. She is also 19 years old. Du Juan was married as a dowry, so they discussed betrothing to a young and promising steward in the family.
