Chapter 570: Decadent Wang Laoqi
Looking at the exquisite wine and food on the table, Li Lei and Zheng Rongsui glanced at each other, and then a smile from the bottom of their hearts emerged.
Yang Huairen's proposal, they can basically agree without any consideration.
First of all, with Yang Huairen's identity as the prince of Tongyuan County, people of their level can't and dare not refuse, even if Yang Huairen has never used his noble identity to suppress them.
The key is that Yang Huairen is a bit too legendary in folk rumors.
For example, now he is a well-known anti-summer hero in the hearts of the people, and it is also an honor for them to be able to work for a hero of the Great Song Dynasty.
Secondly, the project they were asked to do was extremely attractive to craftsmen like them.
An institution specializing in cultivating craftsmen is something that all craftsmen like them dare not think of, and it can be said that it is a great thing for the future and the present generation.
It is easy for Yang Huairen to have such an idea, but it is not simple for him to be willing to do it out of his own pocket, this is not the consciousness and thought that ordinary people can have.
In the end, what came out of the mouth of the old grandson, the wages and treatment given to them by the county prince of Tongyuan were simply rare in a hundred years.
Each of them had nearly 200 craftsmen under them to eat, and at the moment they had taken on a lot of odd jobs, but the total income was not very much.
If such a big project is undertaken, within a year in the future, these people will not have to worry about food and clothing, and not only that, but double the salary will allow each of them to save a lot of money.
Double wages, this can occasionally meet once and a half times, and when some rich and noble families force craftsmen to rush to work, they also use what methods to increase wages to achieve.
And the treatment of Yang Huairen is much more generous than that of any rich and noble family, and the food is still made by people of the level of the chef in Suiyuan, which makes it difficult for these foodies to refuse no matter what.
Li Lei and Zheng Rongsui couldn't wait to make a note with Yang Huairen on the spot, for fear that he would regret it.
Hearing that the new Tongyuan County Mansion, that is, the original Nanyang County Palace, needed to be repaired, the two patted their chests and said that this job was done for Yang Huairen for free, so that he could witness the craftsmanship of his subordinates.
Yang Huairen then remembered this stubble, he had been busy with the construction of the Culinary Academy recently, and he had almost forgotten about it.
The original Nanyang County Mansion is actually very luxurious, not old, and Zhao Zongchu is a person who knows how to enjoy it very much.
However, the original style seems to be too extravagant and flashy, and Yang Huairen feels that it does not fit his style and aesthetics, so let them renovate and repair it according to their own requirements and then move in with the whole family, which is indeed as he wants.
Moreover, it seems that it will take a few days for the planning plans of the two senior brothers, Roushi and Lishui, to be drawn, and during this time, they can only contact the merchants of building materials such as stone and wood to book a large number of materials in advance.
Since there was such a few days of space, Li Lei and Zheng Rongsui proposed it, it was better to do what they wanted, Yang Huairen had no choice but to thank them and accept their kindness.
Lao Sun Tou calculated, under the hands of the three of them, they can roughly make up a team of more than 500 craftsmen, according to the scale of the first phase of the academy in Yang Huairen's plan, these people are more than enough.
As for Wang Laoqi, who has the most craftsmen under his hands, the three of them shook their heads when they said it, Zheng Rongsui's words may be the most representative, "Lao Qi is already stunned, soaking in the kiln every day, maybe his soul is also lost there, alas......"
However, according to Yang Huairen's meaning, Wang Laoqi still has to be invited. Although according to Lao Sun Tou's calculations, the team of craftsmen of five hundred people is enough.
Other small workers or other workers who do some handy work such as carrying and lifting only need their strength, and they do not need to have skills, just hire some farmers with the strength from a few farms near the construction site.
Yang Huairen is not worried about such miscellaneous work at all, but he is a little anxious, and always hopes that the progress of the project can progress faster, if there are nearly 500 craftsmen under Wang Laoqi, maybe the entire construction period can be shortened by half.
The old grandson said, "There is absolutely no problem for the county grandfather to ask us to rush to work, such wages and such treatment, we are also willing to let us rush to work."
With the group of craftsmen under Wang Laoqi, the progress of the project will naturally speed up a lot, but if you contact a small number of them as if you are checking and filling in the gaps, it will be no problem, if you invite a large number of them, I am afraid that the rules will be broken. ”
Yang Huairen nodded, he understands this, each line has its own mountain, and it also has its own rules, no matter what Wang Laoqi is, the rules can't be broken.
Li Lei seemed to think of something, "Lao Qi, this person, it turns out that he is actually very good at talking, his skills are also top-notch, and he is also kind, but in the past two years, I don't know what's wrong, it makes people feel as if they have suddenly changed a person, and the whole person is decadent, alas, ......"
Zheng Rongsui added, "Yes, in the past two years, I wonder if it may be the sisters in the kiln who have drugged him, so that he is like an evil spirit, where to drill every day." ”
This kind of thing makes Yang Huairen also curious, but about drugs, it is just their assumptions.
He could still believe it if he had been stunned for one night, or even a few nights, but he couldn't believe that a drug could make a person addicted for two years.
Yang Huairen made up his mind to meet Wang Laoqi, and the three of them didn't have anything to say, but just told Yang Huairen what they knew as a reference.
After being full of wine and food, Yang Huairen made an appointment for five days and asked them to gather his craftsmen to go to Yang's Zhuangzi, and instructed people to wrap ten catties of braised beef for each of them, and two jars of Yuanchun before sending them home.
After a short rest, when the sky gradually darkened, Yang Huairencai and Lan Ruoxin changed their clothes and came to the Qinglou called Tingyulou, which Wang Laoqi said Li Lei said was the most frequented by Wang Laoqi.
Tingyulou is also in Nancheng, not far from the north bank of the Caishui River in the east. The name sounds very elegant, but the place is a bit of an overstatement.
Yang Huairen came to the Great Song Dynasty, and he hadn't been to a place like Qinglou much, and from his first feeling, when he saw Tingyulou, he always had to compare it with the Wanhualou he had been to last time.
Compared with Wanhualou, the scale and grade of Tingyulou are a few points worse, and the quality of the ladies in Tingyulou can probably be said to be a leopard in the tube, which can be seen.
