Datang little husband

Chapter 41 Daily Life
"Hey, this goddamn system, why are chili peppers so expensive? It doesn't know how hard it is to earn money, or it doesn't know that it is a defective product! It seems that if it wants to realize the freedom of chili peppers, there is no way for it, buddy!" Wait!" Du He looked at the well-growing peppers in front of him, and couldn't help complaining there.

It's no wonder that Du He complained, it's because there are many varieties of chili peppers, and for this delicious dish, a single chili pepper can't produce different flavors.

But every chili in the system is still so expensive, so Du He really has a long way to go to realize the freedom of chili!
It's not that Du He has never thought about cultivating vegetables by himself, but he glanced at the books on vegetable cultivation. The expensive ones in the system are outrageous. want to kill.

And this is just chili, not counting other common vegetables and fruits.

Therefore, if Du He wanted to return to the days when he had a variety of vegetables and fruits in his previous life, he still had a long way to go!
But the complaints are the complaints. After he came out of the greenhouse, he met a happy event. Zhao Ci, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, came with a team of people.

The reason why Zhao Ci came so quickly was entirely Li Shimin's intention. At noon today, when he knew the function of the warm kang, he asked someone to call Zhao Ci to implement the construction of Earl Duhe's mansion as soon as possible.

Although it is winter now, as long as it does not snow, it is also a good time to build a house.

It's just that when Du He took out the sewer design drawing of the Earl's Mansion that he designed, Zhao Ci was dumbfounded.

It's not that there is something wrong with Du He's design drawings. As an old man from the Ministry of Industry, although his craftsmanship is not very good, he still has good eyesight. This made Zhao Ci very speechless.

Because if the construction is carried out according to Du He's design drawings, the entire project will be very huge.

It can even be said that it completely exceeded their budget for the construction of the Earl of Duhe's mansion, and the excess was not just a little bit, but several times.

But Du He didn't care so much. After learning that his design was okay, he urged Zhao Ci to start working quickly.

But Zhao Ci didn't dare to start work like this. After all, the budget difference was so big, it was not up to him, a mere fifth-rank doctor, so Zhao Ci hurried back to Chang'an City that afternoon.

Then report it quickly while it's still early.

And this incident finally alarmed Li Shimin. After Li Shimin listened to Zhao Ci's report, and saw the Tuzuo Banner designed by Du He, and heard the budget, Li Shimin still made a decision and followed Du He's idea. Let's see what a gorgeous earl's mansion this Duhe can finally create.

Even if it wasn't for this period of time, there were too many things to be busy in the court, and he wanted to visit Du He's residence.

After all, he is so busy these days, thanks to Du He.

On Du He's side, because Zhao Ci ran away, Du He had nothing to do, so he wanted to go to Du Lian and let her play games with him to relieve boredom!
This little girl spends time with Li Xin all day long, and even drags Xiaomei along with her, which makes Du He unable to find anyone to accompany her.

There was no way, the depressed Du He could only find something to do for himself, and finally he ran to Lou Gao, asked Lou Gao for some tools, and carved beads there by himself.

This time, Lou Gao's heart ached to the core. You have to know what Du He is and what to use. He used the material of golden nanmu to ruin it there. It's okay for him to ask for bracelets, but Du He is not allowed to waste good materials there, even if he is the master.

In this way, Du He had nothing to do again. Fortunately, it was time for dinner, and cooking finally gave Du He something to do.

However, such leisurely days passed quickly, and with Zhao Ci's arrival again, the construction of his Earl's Mansion officially started.

From that day on, Du He had endless things to do every day, either following Zhao Ci and others to select the location of the Earl's Mansion, or making plans by himself.

When the address was fixed, the workers didn't need to worry about Du He, but Du He struggled a lot with the overall materials used for the sewer. In the end, in order to avoid the trouble of dredging during use, not only the location of the sewer was deeper, but also the materials used better.

Not only is the entire sewer built with bluestone slabs, but the entire foundation is also paved with sandy gravel, pottery bricks, and bluestone. The entire craftsmanship is no different from that in the palace.

In this busy process, the foundation of the entire Earl's Mansion was finally completed before the Spring Festival, which is also called the Spring Festival at this time.

It could be completed so quickly because of the large number of people. After all, the entire Earl's Mansion covers an area of ​​[-] acres in modern calculation units, which is [-] square meters.

It is already a miracle that such a huge place can be completed in less than a month.

But although the speed is fast, the quality is really leveraged.

Moreover, in the planning of the entire mansion, in addition to the main residential area, it also includes a back garden of nearly five acres, and the design of the entire back garden is in accordance with the style of Suzhou gardens of later generations.

And each courtyard is designed according to the pattern of a standard courtyard, and each has an independent small garden and fish pond rockery.

Of course, the most luxurious thing is Du He's own main courtyard, which not only has all the facilities, but is also large enough, and even has a dedicated indoor swimming pool.

However, these designs are only on juan cloth at present, and they will be even more shocking when they become real ones.

After all, such an advanced design is the only one in the entire Tang Dynasty.

But now it's the Spring Festival, the whole construction site stopped within three days, and even on the day of the stoppage, Du He gave them a catty of pork no matter who they were, including those peasants conscripted by corvee.

Although it is absolutely unnecessary for Du He to do this, in Du He's view, this year has passed, and the Spring Festival should be lively and lively. Even if the common people are not used to celebrating the Spring Festival, Du He doesn't care so much , he just wanted to watch the excitement.

This proverb goes well, the Chinese New Year is rich and poor, and they don’t have the habit of going home to celebrate the New Year. They don’t have this habit now, so from now on, start with him, and slowly cultivate them. Du He believes that the Spring Festival in Tang Dynasty will become more and more lively in the future.

And today is the time for them to go home for the New Year, don't go back to Lai Guogong's mansion, Du He got up early, and he stepped into Li Xin's yard for the first time almost a month after Li Xin got married. Just tell her to get up quickly, they are going home.

After notifying Li Xin, Du He ran to Du Lian to wake up the girl.
