Chapter 161: Craftsmen Arrive
Half an hour later, the craftsman named Uncle Wu, whom Si Heng had found, hurried to Qin's house.
Uncle Wu is about forty years old, and he looks like a steady and reliable person.
After meeting Qin Ruo, Uncle Wu didn't say much politely. He picked up Qin Ruo's design drawing and looked at it carefully.
As he listened to Qin Ruo's explanation, he picked up a pen and marked it. He also revised the things that Qin Ruo did not mark clearly.
The two communicated for nearly an hour before they finalized the design.
Uncle Wu added some details and made some minor changes to the drawings, and the final version was almost identical to Qin Ruo's original floor plan.
"As expected, professional matters should be left to professionals. Uncle Wu, thank you for taking care of my house. You can start work anytime you are ready."
Qin Ruo stood up and thanked Uncle Wu with a smile.
"Miss Qin, you don't have to be polite. You can rest assured that we will take care of the rest. The design of your house is quite unique. I have been building houses for many years, but this is the first time I have seen such a house. Thank you for letting us build the house."
Uncle Wu's face was full of smiles, and his words were very appropriate.
Si Heng is involved in many industries, and he can be considered one of Si Heng's subordinates.
His master asked him to find a group of skilled craftsmen from Ganzhou, and he was mainly responsible for supervising the construction of the entire house.
That group of people just came yesterday, there were about thirty of them.
He originally thought that Si Heng was going to build a new mansion in Taihe County, but after arriving he found out that it was his master's friend who was going to build a house.
There was no compliment in what Uncle Wu said to Qin Ruo just now.
The design of Qin Ruo's house is indeed quite fresh, and he is looking forward to what it will look like after it is completed.
Si Heng was a very thoughtful person. He had anticipated that Qin Ruo would not have time to take care of these trivial matters. He even asked the housekeeper Ren in the mansion to find the materials for building the house before the New Year.
After agreeing on the specific start time with Qin Ruo, Wu Da hurried away with the drawings.
After Si Heng was detoxified before the Chinese New Year, he left Taihe County with Cang Jiu. He just returned two days ago.
Si Heng looked at the fair and beautiful face in front of him, and his heart moved slightly.
When Qin Ruo detoxified him for the first time, he realized firsthand how superb Qin Ruo's medical skills were.
Although the detoxification process was extremely difficult, it could even be said to be a life-threatening situation.
But afterwards, he was no longer restrained by the constraints of the past, and he felt like he was alive again.
No wonder she talked about her detoxification process and didn't like people to point fingers at her. Such a method of putting one's life in mortal danger, which doctor in the Great Sheng Dynasty dared to do it?
Si Heng recalled the doses of bitter medicine that Qin Ruo prescribed for him after she detoxified him, which made him question life, and he couldn't help but laugh.
The purpose of his coming here today, in addition to introducing Uncle Wu to Qin Ruo, the main reason was that he wanted to meet Qin Ruo.
It's only been more than ten days since we last met, but I actually felt a sense of hope in my heart as if I had missed you so much.
"What are you laughing at? Why are you so happy?" Qin Ruo glanced at Si Heng who was smiling like a fool, and asked casually.
Si Heng quickly put away his smile and made up an excuse to get away with it.
After the two sat for a while, they agreed on a time for the second detoxification, and then Si Heng stood up and said goodbye.
Not long after Si Heng left, Qin Ruo took Banxia to look for Yu Ji.
Xunyuji Restaurant is still packed, showing that diners recognize the restaurant's dishes.
Qingsheng was so busy running around that he didn't even have time to rest. It was not until Qin Ruo finished looking through the account books of the past few days and listened to the report from Manager Li that Qingsheng finally found time to come and see Qin Ruo.
"Greetings, Master. You are finally free to come here today."
Qingsheng had a very happy look on his face. Since Xunyuji opened, he has been almost the busiest person in the entire restaurant.
Because Qin Ruo intends to train him to be a shopkeeper, Qingsheng not only needs to master the operation of the restaurant, but also needs to be familiar with things like food procurement management and bookkeeping.
It was busy and chaotic in the beginning, but fortunately I have gradually figured out the trick now.
"Qingsheng, thank you for your hard work during this period. How is your study with Shopkeeper Li going? How are Huzi and the others doing?"
"My lord, I am basically familiar with the affairs of Xunyuji. But I still need to learn from Manager Li for a while. Uncle Zhong will come to help in the kitchen after the New Year. As for Hu Zi, Xiao Nan and Xiao Bei, they went to the suburban house before the New Year and have been practicing martial arts with Jiang Wu. During this period, Jiang Wu has been teaching us to read and write. My lord, the young master must have come back with you. I will let Hu Zi send Xiao Nan and Xiao Bei back to the mansion later."
Originally, Xiaonan and Xiaobei were assigned to keep Qin Tiaotiao company. While Qin Tiaotiao was away from Taihe County, Qingsheng arranged for him to go back to his house in the suburbs.
Qin Ruo nodded. The group of beggars that were recruited at the beginning now have new identities.
She also named her newly established force Jiuyoumen.
Although there are not many members in Jiuyoumen now, each of them is carefully selected.
She had already planned to select the best from this team of more than 20 people.
Select suitable people from them to join the future core team - the Flame Team.
"Flame" was also Qin Ruo's organization in her previous life. Even in the Great Sheng Dynasty, it was still her obsession.
"Among the brothers and sisters of Jiuyou Sect, Jiang Wu and Asang are the most powerful. Even Brother Song praised them for their quick learning."
When Qingsheng mentioned Jiang Wu and Asan, he praised them highly.
Qin Ruo also had an idea in mind. After coming out of Xun Yu Ji, she went directly to the base in the suburbs.
In a house outside the city, Song Shiqi was leading two teams, led by Asan and Jiang Wu, to compete.
Hu Zi, Xiao Nan, Xiao Bei and others were also among them.
They had only been exposed to martial arts for a short time, and except for Jiang Wu who performed slightly better, the moves used by the others were just like playing house.
Qin Ruo stood there and watched for a while, and her brows couldn't help but frown.
She did not disturb them. She waited until they were resting before asking someone to call Jiang Wu and Asan up.
After Jiang Wu and Asang exchanged greetings, they stood quietly in front of Qin Ruo.
After a cup of tea, looking at Qin Ruo who still didn't speak, the two of them suddenly felt a huge sense of oppression coming towards them.
It was Jiang Wushang who stepped forward and spoke: "Master, I wonder why you called me and Asan here. What do you want me to do?"
Qin Ruo raised her eyelids, her gaze fell on the person in front of her, and she remained silent for a long time.
Jiang Wu couldn't help but feel uneasy. He didn't know why Qin Ruo asked him and Asan to come over.
Qin Wuzi thought that he had been following Brother Song's instructions at the house these days and had not slacked off in practicing martial arts for even a single day.
Now facing the oppressive gaze of his master, Jiang Wu's heart couldn't help but sink.
