Chapter 207;
New Goal
His current search engine level is level 2. It cost him 1,000 points to upgrade from level 1.
But now to upgrade from level 2 to level 3, it actually costs 10,000.
Originally she could upgrade, but the character life scan she used several times in a row cost her two thousand.
"I'm just thinking about developing some new gadgets and earning points."
There are no more points to earn for perfumes and spirits. At present, only soaps and the yeast that came from the front are left.
Both of these are gadgets. She checked the points limit and found that each could only earn two thousand.
Moreover, soap cannot be made on a large scale now. Yeast can, but it seems that if you make too much of it, it won't be useful for the time being.
Therefore, she urgently needs to find new gadgets.
Today, when she went to the workers' dormitory outside, she found a new target.
Fired bricks, and cement.
Now forget about the dormitories in the alley outside the village, which were built with great difficulty, so she would focus on living there first. She planned to build the workshops at the back by firing green bricks and cement herself.
Not only is it durable and sturdy, it also has the Mid-Levels Manor planned for her, which is where she will live permanently in the future.
Not only is it easy to do, but she also wants to build a villa and manor in the style of later generations.
This requires a lot of things, such as bricks, cement, steel bars, lime, glass, ceramic tiles, etc.
When she thought about it, she realized that there were really a lot of things she could do.
With her new goal in mind, she searched out all the methods for making these things and recorded them on paper.
This busy work ended at noon.
"Qiu Yu, I'm hungry."
"Wait a moment, miss, my servant will bring you some food right now."
Lu Yaoyao sorted all the records separately, put them in the box, stood up and walked out of the study.
Just as he arrived at the living room, Qiu Shuang walked in from outside.
Qiu Shuang is now her chief housekeeper. She was in charge of the affairs at Xiangjun Mansion. Now that she is back at Zhuangzi, she is responsible for a lot of things.
"Miss, my uncle is here."
"Uncle is here? Come in quickly."
At this moment, it has been almost a month since she came out of the city. During this time, she has been busy with work, but she has not been to the Lu family a few times.
"Yao Yao, you've done a good job at Zhuangzi. It's much better than before."
The uncle walked in from outside with a smile.
This Zhuangzi was given to Lu Yaoyao by him. He knew very well what it was like before.
I came here today and it looks so much better than before.
"Uncle, please take a seat. Why do you have time to come to my place on this hot day?"
Lu Xiu walked over and sat down.
"You haven't been back to the capital much recently. Your grandfather has been talking about coming over for a visit. However, the weather is very hot now, and there are many victims outside the city. I was worried that something might happen, so I didn't let him come over."
"Now that he saw that I was fine, he asked me to come over here and see you."
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao smiled and nodded, and said with some shame, "It's also my fault. I forgot to visit his old man."
"You are also busy. My uncle saw it just now. There are many people working outside Zhuangzi."
"What are you going to do about this? I've never heard of you talking about it, and you suddenly made such a big move?"
They had heard a little bit about Lu Yaoyao's renovation of the farm, but they always thought she was just renovating the surroundings of the farm.
But looking at it today, there are many newly built houses outside, and there are also many people digging foundations in vacant land.
"I'm going to build a workshop here. I've bought thousands of acres of surrounding wasteland."
The location of her farm is relatively remote. There are no other farms in a large area around it, and most of the area is wasteland.
"So much land? It won't take so much to build a workshop, right?"
From Lu Xiu's point of view, they only have two products: perfume and soap. They can just set up two workshops, and it doesn't need to be too big.
Thousands of acres of land, which is quite a large area, are all used to build workshops. How big is it?
"That's what I planned."
Then, she explained in detail her idea of building a workshop area here.
As for what other products these workshops would produce besides perfumes and soaps, he did not say.
It's not that she wants to hide it, but she hasn't thought about it yet. As for the blue bricks and cement ones, she only has preliminary plans. She still needs to investigate the surrounding areas and find a suitable place.
If there is no suitable place here, then you have to go somewhere else, so it’s hard to say whether it will be placed here.
"I see, this is a good idea. Your second uncle and I have been looking everywhere in the capital recently."
"Many things are just simple small workshops. If you finish it here, maybe it will attract many people to rent the workshop, which is good."
Rent it out?
Lu Yaoyao never thought that all the products in her workshop area must be her own.
However, she didn't explain much, just smiled and nodded.
The uncle and nephew chatted for a while, and then they talked about things in Jiangdong.
"Your grandfather has also been worried about the situation in Jiangdong recently."
"Now that it has rained in many places, the drought should not continue to worsen. Do you think we should choose a time to go back to Jiangdong?"
They have decided to develop in the capital, but they had to be in a hurry this time and many things were not explained.
I have to go back and explain everything there, and also deal with their properties.
"There is no rush. We have to wait. Moreover, the weather is too hot right now, and it is really inconvenient to travel long distances."
"Uncle, do you think this will work? Over there, let my grandfather write a letter to explain that we will wait for a month and then go back in autumn?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiu pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Indeed, the weather has not been very good recently."
It is not only hot now, but also heavy rains have occurred in many places. It is hot and cold, and it is really troublesome and inconvenient to rush back to Jiangdong.
It would be good to go back when things are stable. Anyway, we received a letter from Jiangdong. All the food in the shop has been sold out and it has been temporarily closed.
There is no shortage of food at home, and Zhuangzi has settled in well. Nothing will happen. There is no problem in waiting for another month.
"Okay, I'll go back and talk to your grandfather later."
At this moment, Qiu Yu came in with food.
"Uncle, I guess you haven't eaten yet. Qiu Yu, go and let the kitchen prepare it."
She told Qiu Yu and Qiu Shuang to go over and take the food box and take out all the food inside.
"Hey, what is this?"
Lu Xiu's eyes were immediately attracted by the big, fat, white steamed bun.
Because Lu Yaoyao developed pasta, now it is basically included in the meals served at Zhuangzi.
Lu Yaoyao also likes to eat steamed buns, which are much more delicious than brown rice.
