Hammer couldn't bear the heavy stimulation and fell into a coma.
Mingxi said very considerately: "On the first day, let him rest first, and we will officially start working tomorrow."
She turned to look at Shuanzi and said, "Let him follow you in breaking stones tomorrow. You are familiar with this job. Then you can take care of him more."
"Okay!" Shuanzi puffed up his chest and nodded vigorously, feeling quite proud. He didn't expect that the youngest one was now considered a senior.
Hu Tie asked worriedly: "What about those things he spread..."
"It's okay. We'll ask you questions when he wakes up." Ming Xi said nonchalantly, "Let's work now. Those things are not important."
Nothing is as important as her infrastructure career.
The soldiers came to cover up the water and earth, and she even raised the satellite to the sky. What else is there to be afraid of?
Mingxi is so swollen now that she doesn't take anything seriously. It's just powder. It's a trivial matter~ It's a trivial matter~
She took her daughter to experience a newly completed seesaw.
The carpenter is very careful in his work, and the corners are rounded and smooth, so there is no need to worry about knocking children. The carpenter also made the two ends of the seesaw into the shape of rooster heads, which makes it look like a cockfight, which is very interesting.
The only drawback is that there is no paint.
Wooden products left in the open air without paint will quickly rot and deteriorate. In ancient times, tung oil was often used to avoid this. However, tung oil was mostly used on ships. This rare product does not exist in small mountain villages, nor does it exist in Huai'an County.
But it doesn't matter, she can buy better anti-corrosion paint in the mall anyway.
Mingxi asked Ye'er and Manjing to sit on one end of the seesaw, while he sat on the other end holding Xiaoxue, rocking up and down and laughing.
How fun!
When there are slides and swings in the future, it will definitely be more fun here.
Ah, why not just build a playground!
Mingxi thought further.
Not far away, the carpenter's apprentice was attracted by the laughter. He couldn't help but look at it a few more times and complained to his master: "This lady from the Ming family is really weird. She keeps spending money on these useless things."
The old carpenter glared at him, "If she doesn't make these things, where will you and I get food to eat?"
The apprentice smiled and said: "Master, you know that's not what I meant. I just think... Hehe, the Ming family's wife is really willing to spend money on her children."
Things like seesaws and slides are obviously for children to play with and have no use.
"Shh, stop talking, she's coming..." Another apprentice whispered.
The few people working there fell silent.
Ming Xi came over with a smile on his face and said to the old carpenter: "Master Xiao! Your craftsmanship is really good. The rooster on that seesaw is so beautiful!"
The old carpenter smiled modestly.
Ming Xi looked at the work they were doing again and saw that the combined slide had taken a rough shape. He was even more surprised, "Is this slide also about to be completed?"
"Let's give it another three to five days." The old carpenter replied thoughtfully, "The curved slide you want still needs some work."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work!" Mingxi said happily, "When you are done, help me make something!"
The old carpenter's heart was pounding when he heard it: It's great, he has made money again.
The consumption power in the village is actually very low. He makes a living by making chairs and cabinets all year round. He can only get big jobs when he is lucky. Customers with such strong demand as Mingxi are really rare.
Mingxi took a branch and drew a pattern on the ground to show it to the old carpenter, "Put a layer of wooden boards on the ground. It should be ten meters long and ten meters wide. It should be about this big..."
"What is this for?" the old carpenter asked puzzledly.
"Let's play~" Mingxi smiled, "I plan to draw a big chessboard on the wooden board."
The old carpenter nodded, "This is easy to do. My apprentice can do the work alone. However, for such a large piece of wood, it is best to brush it with several layers of tung oil, otherwise it will deteriorate quickly. We don't have tung oil here."
The old carpenter's eldest apprentice immediately said: "We have to go to Fucheng to place an order. Fucheng is close to the Daqing River. There are many ships there and there is no shortage of tung oil sellers."
"No, I have paint..." Mingxi smiled and said without intending to explain, "You guys go ahead and I will figure out a way to apply tung oil later."
"Okay," the old carpenter nodded. "When the wood comes tomorrow, I will let the apprentice start work. There are enough people on the slide."
Ming Xi was chatting with the carpenter when Zhao Li was strolling over slowly, hands behind his back, and started to talk about household matters: "Ms. Xi, you are busy. Is Hammer okay?"
Mingxi thought for a while, "It should be fine."
I just fainted.
Zhao Lizheng said sincerely: "It's okay. Just try to persuade Hu Tie and the others more. If you have any conflicts, talk to them. Don't fight. We all grew up together in the village. There's nothing we can't untie, don't you think?" "
"I know, don't worry." Ming Xi smiled, "Just working every day is enough for them, so they don't have the strength to fight."
"That's right..." Zhao Lizheng narrowed his eyes and smiled. In recent days, his mood has become more and more comfortable. Since Mingxi opened up wasteland here, the village has become extremely peaceful, and the idle gangsters have jobs. Go ahead and never cause trouble again.
He asked again: "Have you ever said why you came back?"
Mingxi was about to talk to Zhao Lizheng about this matter. When the other party mentioned it, she immediately said: "Langtou thought that Hu Tie and the others were cursed by me with magic, so he went to the Lin family to complain. My ex-husband gave him a bad idea." , told him to go to the Taiqing Palace to ask some real person to help exorcise evil spirits. No, I don’t know what kind of dust the hammer asked for from the Taiqing Palace. He sprinkled it on my doorstep in the middle of the night last night. He probably wanted to drive me away as an evil spirit. "
"What?!" Zhao Lizheng was shocked and blew his beard, "Absurd! Isn't this nonsense?! Our village ladies are ordinary people, how can we be evil?! Where is the hammer? I have to talk to him! How can you harm people like this!"
"He didn't believe me even if I told him. He now believes that I am a monster," Ming Xi smiled and didn't take it seriously. "I don't want to take care of those things scattered at my door, otherwise he will think that I am guilty and scared. Well, the rumors will spread even more in the future."
"How can you ignore it?" Zhao Lizheng said with a face full of disapproval, "What if it's poisonous?"
"Since it was something the Taiqing Palace asked for, it is probably some incense ash and cinnabar or something." Ming Xi guessed.
"Taiqing Palace..." Zhao Lizheng frowned, "On every first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, people in our village will go to Taiqing Palace to offer incense and pray for blessings. Alas, Master Duan has a high level of cultivation and his heart is like a mirror. I hope that Master Duan will not misunderstand. "
He showed great respect for the real person in his words.
Mingxi thought this was not good.
She had to stabilize Zhao Lizheng's attitude. Only when Zhao Lizheng was on her side could she ensure that the whole village was on her side.
Ming Xi's mind was spinning rapidly, and she smiled and said to Zhao Lizheng, "Uncle Zhao, please lend me your gong."
Zhao Lizheng was slightly startled and looked at her in confusion, "Ms. Xi, what do you want to borrow the gong for?"
"Well, I might announce something big in the next two days." Mingxi replied shyly.
