After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 152: Housing Boom
The East Gate is the largest gate in Jiangzhou Prefecture, and it has the most refugees outside.
Father Bai led the way in front, driving his empty carriage, while Bai Qingyun followed behind in a carriage full of goods, with young and strong men from Dayang Village on both sides.
As soon as we drove out of the city gate, the wheels of the car left deep ruts as they moved from the flat stone road to the mud road.
In a corner where no one could see, Bai Qingyun loaded the full truck of goods into the space. Except for Ma Er who felt relieved, no one else noticed.
When the carriage driven by Bai's father turned into the country road, Bai's father and Bai Qingyun raised the whips in their hands and rushed out two or three meters in just a moment.
At the same time, Yang Daming and several older people drove ox carts and blocked the originally narrow path tightly.
There are mountains and forests on one side of the road and low farmland on the other side. There are no signs of cultivation in the fields, and when spring comes, weeds grow wildly in them.
There are mostly swarms of insects and ants there, and occasionally you can see three or two immature snakes crawling around, blending in with the color of the weeds. If you didn't see the tracks of their crawling, it would be difficult to tell them apart.
Thanks to this natural advantage, the plan of several people was very successful.
Twelve was the rear guard, calculating when the time was right and then taking the few people behind him to catch up with the carriage in front.
By the time we returned to Dayang Village, it was already dusk.
The scene in the village was different from when I first saw it. The paths that were originally covered with weeds had been cleared, and the few dilapidated huts had been cleaned up.
Smoke was already rising from the dilapidated ancestral hall in the village.
Seeing the people coming back, they put down their work and hurried to meet them.
Bai Qingyun had already put the goods back into the carriage intact, and at this moment the village chief was directing people to move them.
Bai Qingyun also stuffed a lot of food into Bai's father's carriage. The construction at home was about to start, and meals had to be prepared every day, so the consumption of food would not be small.
Village chief Yang had a lot of wine. Everyone in Dayang Village who could drink could get a small bowl. The firelight shone on the villagers' faces, and even their tears were filled with warmth.

Early the next morning, people from the government office came to divide up the land that everyone had purchased. The Bai family had a lot of land, so it took the entire morning to finish.
At the same time, the shopkeeper brought his second uncle from a distant family and discussed the house building matters with the blueprint of the yard.
The Bai family’s new house was built near a hundred acres of fertile farmland and not far from the newly purchased hilltop, covering an area of about two acres.
The architectural style was agreed upon by Bai's father and that man. Bai Qingyun simply set aside a small room in each bedroom to use as a semi-modern bathroom and shower room.
Because of the tight schedule, the man took the agreed drawings and hurried back to prepare. However, the shopkeeper who stayed behind to prepare to transport the materials had an unexpected gain.
The progress of the Bai family's house construction made everyone in Dayang Village feel a sense of urgency.
Since you have decided to build a house, learn from the Bai family and do it in one step.
Some people followed the Bai family's example and built a blue brick and tile house directly. Some people who had pressure from large family sizes took a step back and built an ordinary stone brick house.
The cost of an ordinary stone brick house is nearly half of that of a blue brick and tile house. Although it is not as good as a blue brick and tile house, it is much better than an adobe house or a thatched house.
Even Xie Li and Xie Shuer had booked a house made of blue bricks and tiles. The grandfather and grandson had been working for the Bai family for a while, with a high monthly salary and basically no expenses in life. All the money was saved by Xie Li, and now it was just right to use it to build a house.
The shopkeeper spent the whole afternoon going door to door negotiating business, signing contracts and collecting deposits. Because he did not have enough people under him, he discussed with his second uncle and hired a lot of people to work.
Now is a good time to recruit people, and Bai's father and mother also went to several nearby villages to recruit people at the same time.
The Bai family has more things to do now. Grandpa Bai and Grandma Bai are building their home in Bingzhou bit by bit. Since they have experience, they are in charge of building the house.
Father and Mother Bai are in charge of the hundred acres of farmland and hills that the family has just purchased.
As Xie Li's health improved, the Bai family officially hired him as the housekeeper of the Bai family, accompanying the two elderly people of the Bai family to take care of all the big and small matters at home.
Although the three Bai brothers and Xie Shuer are young, they are good at work. They help to clean the house, cook, and unload goods, and they are very busy and happy.
As for Bai Qingyun...
At this moment, she was in a dilapidated thatched hut, one of the rooms of which was cleaned very warmly. This was the temporary residence of the family of Yang Linsheng, a carpenter in Dayang Village.
Also, because there were few people in the family, including his wife and daughter Yang Muwan, there were only three of them, so they didn't feel too crowded even though they were squeezed into a small room.
Bai Qingyun squatted on the ground and saw Carpenter Yang install the curved beam on the rear end of the plow frame, and then installed an adjustment device on the plow frame to adjust the depth of plowing.
Xiao Yan was young, and all the work at home was heavy labor, so Bai Qingyun brought her along. At this moment, she was also imitating Bai Qingyun, holding her chin with both hands and resting her elbows on her knees.
At such a young age, he doesn't have good control over his body and his butt is sticking up high.
Seeing Bai Qingyun leading the cow to the field, he hurriedly got up and followed closely behind him.
Carpenter Yang picked up the newly made curved plow and followed him to the field.
At this moment, the fields are full of villagers who want to plow the land before the end of spring plowing. Everyone starts working in the fields before dawn every day and does not go back until it is dark and cannot be seen anymore.
But even so, even if the Bai family hired someone to cultivate the fields, it would take a long time just to plow the land. By the time the spring plowing was over, the land might have just been plowed.
Bai Qingyun also thought of this, so he knocked on the door of Carpenter Yang's house at night and made the first curved plow overnight.
The people in the fields saw Carpenter Yang carrying something new and the girl from the Bai family following him, so they quickly picked up the hoes in their hands and put them on their shoulders.
The thresher developed by the two of them last time caused quite a stir in the village and even in the entire Qujiang County. The people of Dayang Village were also the first beneficiaries.
Now that there are new things, I just want to be in the front row to watch the fun. If I go too late, I won’t be able to get a good seat.
Carpenter Yang was seen connecting the curved shaft to the livestock. Bai Qingyun was leading her own cow. She just patted the cow's butt lightly and controlled the direction with her hand.
As the cow moved forward, the originally dry soil was turned up, bringing up the wet mud inside, and the onlookers were all amazed.
After finishing plowing a row of land, Bai Qingyun wanted to turn around and continue plowing, but someone came up to take over.
"Bai girl, you go and take a rest, I'll do it!"
Aunt Niu took advantage of her proximity and seized the opportunity first.
Others who were slower could only watch in envy.
Aunt Niu was quick and nimble, and she learned how to grasp the direction from Bai Qingyun, and she actually worked much faster than Bai Qingyun.
When people saw the benefits of this thing, they lined up to try it.
