Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Anyway, manpower is there.

The construction period Ding Tian gave was one month, three uncles and five taels of silver, as the leader, and his own uncle, of course the wages he paid were high.

Brother Kan is paid four taels of silver, and his two sons are small workers, each of whom is given one tael.

Cripple Yin Ding is a carpenter, and he was also given four taels of silver, but because the tools he brought were also consumed, Ding Tian also gave him fifty copper coins.

Providing food and lodging means that their wages are pure leftovers. The third uncle didn't want wages at first. He seemed to be here to help his nephew, but Ding Tian had already thought of the reason: "This is money from the yamen. Third uncle , if you don’t take it, don’t take it!’,

"Really?" Uncle San nodded: "Then I'll take it."

Third Uncle is so foolish, Ding Tian never lies, honest boy.

In his opinion, as long as it is not given by his nephew, it is fine, but the third uncle does not understand his work.

"What kind of heated kang is there in the cell? Just lay straw on it?" The third uncle was not optimistic about his nephew's use of the heated kang in the cell. In his opinion, those who can be locked in the cell are bad people. Why are they being treated so well?

"That's right!" Several other people also thought why Fei was doing this?

"I have sent things to your grandfather a few times before. I have seen the prison cells before. There was no kang there, just straw piles, and the better ones had straw mats." The third uncle is still very knowledgeable, and remembers the appearance of the prison cells in the past. .

"Third Uncle, here we don't have a heated kang, people will freeze to death in winter!" Ding Tian couldn't laugh or cry: "There is no heated kang, no amount of straw can hold the cold."

This is the Northeast!

In the Northeast region where there is no greenhouse effect, it was past February [-] when he came, so he had to be wrapped in a big cotton jacket and two cotton trousers, and he had to wear big thick cotton shoes to go out.

If it’s the twelfth lunar month of winter, let alone lying on the straw, even lying on the fire pit, it needs to be burned three or four times a day.

Without a heated kang, things like freezing to death would definitely happen.

"But people are locked inside, and you can't let people go in to burn the kang." Uncle San went around twice: "I'll build the kang hole outside for you, so you don't have to go in to burn the kang."

"Okay, listen to Uncle Three." Ding Tian thought for a while: "We need to build a door, the kind that can be opened and closed, otherwise the heat will be gone."

In this regard, the third uncle is better than him.

He not only built a door, but also reserved acorns outside the door: "In winter, you can hang a straw curtain outside, although it doesn't keep you warm, it keeps you out of the wind."

The dense grass curtain has a very good wind resistance effect.

"Okay, it's good!" Ding Tian nodded, obeying the third uncle's arrangement.

The layout of the county prison is that the cell is beyond the screen wall, and the two sides of the cell are built for the prison guards.

There is a row of cells on the left and right, each row of twelve cells, after this row of cells, is the location of the inner prison.

The inner prison looks like a courtyard, not the quadrangle in the memory of the original owner.

As for this courtyard house, the main room is the prison hall, and there are two rooms in the east and west, one is the torture room, and the other is the guest room. I don’t know what to think, there are guest rooms in the prison?

A row of five cells in the east is where serious offenders are held; a row of five cells in the west is for prisoners on death row.

There is nothing to look at these two sides, but it is the only solid prison cell here that is ridged with bluestone blocks. The ground is covered with bluestone blocks, in case someone digs a tunnel to rob the prison. In fact, what kind of criminals can there be in a county?

And behind the Sanheyuan, separated by a row of low mountain apricot trees, is a place similar to a back cover room, which is a female prison, a place where female relatives are detained.

There are only five rooms, the middle room is for the female prison guard, a hall is in front, and the bedroom is in the back, which is a compartment.

The cells on both sides are places where female prisoners are held exclusively.

There is no torture room, let alone a guest room, in the women's cell.

Because the women's cell is relatively far away, this is the first place where the kang is laid.

Because the place is small, the kangs are all the size of a double bed. Brother Kan can make two plates a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon!

Except that the kangs in some places are ordinary kangs that can lie down three or five people, Brother Kan only uses one day's time plate, and the others take half a day. Brother Kan also sighed to himself: "The work of the public is easy."

This day is full of food, the work is not tiring, and all the wages are left over. The little money the three of you earn is enough for spring and summer expenses.

Farmers’ pan pits are all very big, because the whole family has to sleep on this kang, so it can’t be too big.And there are at most five people in the cell. Even because the county is located in a remote place and there are few prisoners, it is not impossible for one person to be locked in a cell and enjoy the treatment of a single room.

"It's easy to do it well." The third uncle was also happy: "You finish the kang with your front feet, and I will burn the kang with your back feet. After it's hot and smoked the kang, I should paint the walls."
