Chapter 239 The Emperor of Shit and Piss
The advantage of running an inn is that friends come often.
The disadvantage of running an inn is that you often send friends away...
For several days after sending Zhou Fu, Liu Tang and others away, Yang Ge felt that everything he did was boring. Even Xiao Baoqi and the others called him to play cards many times, but he was too lazy to move and couldn't cheer up.
When I was young, I had a horse's hoof disease when I was proud of the spring breeze, and I didn't believe that there was separation in the world.
He is not young anymore, so he knows that some people will never see each other again after seeing them for the last time.
The emperor's mind...
"Sir, the patio tea room has been decorated. You can go and check it."
On the twenty-sixth day after Yang Ge handed over the patio to Zhao Hong, he finally came and said his first words to Yang Ge in the past twenty-four days.
Yang Ge turned his head and glanced at him expressionlessly: "The one-month period is not yet up, do you really want me to go for acceptance now? Have you thought clearly?"
Zhao Hong, who was standing next to him with his chest raised and his head raised, felt inexplicably guilty for a moment when he heard his words. Every detail of the teahouse renovation was running through his mind like a marquee.
After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said: "I've thought about it clearly, please go and accept it now!"
Yang Ge didn't ask any more questions, stood up and walked back to the inn, holding the crooked teapot through the front hall and into the patio.
The patio is actually not big, only about 40 square meters in total. Zhao Hong transformed the ice cellar that was originally located in the center of the patio into a rockery fish pond, and visually divided the square patio into four parts with four petals. Then, thumb-thick bamboos were used as screens to create four independent themed tea rooms for spring, summer, autumn and winter.
The reserved aisle is in the middle, surrounding the rockery and fish pond. One end leads directly to the front hall and the other end leads directly to the kitchen. The square peripheral drainage channel is used to create a water pavilion effect in the middle of the water. The bottom of the drainage channel is also A layer of pebbles is laid flat, which can not only drain water, but also have landscape functions, and can also replenish water for the lotus pond in the middle...
All in all, Zhao Hong really put a lot of thought and effort into this.
The final effect was even better than what Yang Ge had imagined before.
Yang Ge held the teapot and carefully inspected each tearoom: "Miaomiao, give me the account book for the tearoom renovation!"
"Coming!"
Zhao Miao, who was in the front hall, responded and walked quickly through the front hall with the account book. When he passed by Zhao Hong, he gave him a look that said, "I hope you will be blessed."
Zhao Hong stood at the aisle with his arms folded and his head held high, unafraid!
Yang Ge sat in the spring room, took the account book sent by Zhao Miao, opened the accounts one by one and carefully checked each item of materials used.
The accounts were complicated, but he could understand them, and he had an idea of the market prices of various materials.
After a while, he closed the account book and returned it to Zhao Miao, nodded and said: "Well done, you can move to the yellow room today."
When Zhao Hong heard this, he almost broke through the defense on the spot... Is this just good? Can we only stay in rooms with yellow fonts?
‘How about you come? ’
But before Yang Ge could say what was in his heart, he had already picked up the teapot and stood up, striding towards the front hall: "Follow me."
Zhao Hong stiffened his neck and stayed in place with his legs trembling slightly, wanting to gamble with him.
Yang Ge ignored him and passed him by.
Seeing this, Zhao Miao quickly stepped forward and pushed: "What are you still waiting for? Go ahead?"
There was a struggle in Zhao Hong's eyes, but he quickly turned around and followed Yang Ge's pace... He didn't notice it himself, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Ge led Zhao Hong out and pointed to an alley a hundred steps away diagonally across the street: "Do you know where that place is?"
Zhao Hong glanced at his hand: "It's the latrine, why didn't I know about it?"
Yang Ge put down his hand: "Do you know how many public toilets there are in the entire Luting County?"
Zhao Hong was stunned and said speechlessly: "How do I know this?"
Yang Ge replied: "Eight seats."
Zhao Hong looked at him in surprise: "Do you still know this?"
Yang Ge did not answer his question, but asked: "Have you been to a public toilet?"
Zhao Hong shuddered subconsciously and shook his head like a rattle with a pale face: "I haven't been there, I haven't been there..."
Yang Ge raised the corner of his lips, then quickly pressed it down: "It seems that you have already been there. What is the situation inside... You don't need me to describe it to you in detail, right?"
Zhao Hong had already started to retching: "No, no, no, absolutely no..."
One time he had to urinate urgently at the flower and bird market, and was led there once by Zhang Erniu. As a result, instead of urinating, he vomited all over the floor... Since then, when he had to urinate urgently outside, he would rather hold it in and run all the way back to the inn. They refuse to go to those public toilets anymore.
Yang Ge said calmly: "In the past, the flow of people in Luting was not too big, and the eight public toilets were enough for pedestrians to use. However, in the past two years, the permanent population of Luting has increased five times, and the flow of people has increased by more than ten times. Times, these eight public toilets are not enough. Not only do the sanitary conditions of the eight public toilets continue to deteriorate, but people often defecate and defecate in the open. If this continues, sooner or later, large-scale infectious diseases will occur..."
Zhao Hong looked at him in horror: "What do you mean?"
Yang Ge glanced at him and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not a devil. I won't let you dig out excrement."
This was the first time he smiled at Zhao Hong, but this smile made Zhao Hong feel creepy, and the hair on the back of his head almost stood up.
Sure enough, Yang Erlang opened his mouth with blood, and a string of words that made him shudder came out of his mouth: "But this problem must be dealt with. There are too few public toilets, so build more public toilets. The sanitary environment is worrying, so we should try to change the sanitary environment inside... Not only should everyone with urgent urination and frequent urination be able to find a latrine nearby, but also let them urinate cleanly and comfortably. "
"This good governance that benefits the country and the people is left to you."
Zhao Hong pointed to his nose in disbelief: "Me?"
Yang Ge ignored his doubts about life and said to himself: "Later, I will say hello to the Xiuyiwei Shangyou Station and send you a man with a small banner. You can lead them at a rate of two per ten thousand people." The standards for public toilets are to build public toilets in various gathering places across the county. The funds will be drawn from the county government and the manpower will be recruited by yourself... Ten sets of planning drawings will be drawn up first, and then the construction will be selected. "
"My request is as follows:"
"First, the land for building public toilets must be bought and sold on an equal basis, and one cannot bully others or take advantage of others."
"Second, the geographical location must be considered comprehensively. It must be convenient to transport manure, but it must not pollute underground water sources everywhere in the city."
"Third, all public toilets built must be bright, ventilated, and have green plants to isolate odors...at least you must be able to go in!"
"Time limit: three months."
"I will consider whether to allow you to return to Beijing for the New Year this year depending on the progress."
"If the progress is too slow or it's not done correctly, you will just stay in Luting to catch up on the work this New Year and don't even want to go anywhere."
After saying that, he patted the confused Zhao Hong on the shoulder and said warmly with a smile: "Work hard, I'm optimistic about you!"
He turned around and walked back to the inn, waving to the salted fish playing mahjong in that compartment: "Let's go to the patio to play mahjong. It's bright and the air is good..."
"Okay, okay, I told you that this place is for playing mahjong, but you still don't believe me!"
"Second Master, do it twice..."
"Come just come, who is afraid of whom?"
Zhao Hong was left alone outside the inn door in a daze. He looked up at the sky without focus, then looked down at the ground. After a long time, he sat down heavily on Yang Ge's rocking chair: "I really Silly, really..."
Zhao Miao walked out of the door while eating melon seeds. He smiled and looked at Zhao Hong who looked hopeless and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhao Hong raised his head and glanced at her, then suddenly grabbed the corner of her clothes as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and howled in a tearless voice: "Sister, help me, that guy really wants to torture him to death." me!"
Zhao Miao slapped his paw away in disgust: "Speak nicely, what's going on?"
Zhao Hong felt aggrieved and angrily recounted the story of Yang Gerang going to build a public toilet, and finally cried out: "He just wants to torture me. How can I do this? If I do this, the history books will not be returned in the future." You have to say I’m shit, so what?”
After hearing this, Zhao Miao was also amused and curious, and thought to himself: 'Second brother is really amazing! ’
"You don't want to do this job?"
She asked casually while eating melon seeds.
Zhao Hong shook his head without hesitation: "Of course not!"
Zhao Miaomian hesitated: "Is this good? I'll go and persuade the second brother to let you go home and continue your work as your eldest young master, and let the third brother do this job... Don't worry, the second brother loves me and he will agree with me. 's proposal.
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Zhao Hong felt joy on his face. After hearing the second half, he turned to caution: "What are you doing with the third child? What do you want to do?"
Zhao Miao smiled faintly and said, "Don't you want to do this? Then let the third child do it. He will definitely not mind doing this."
Zhao Hong pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "Don't bother me, Third Brother. I am enough for the little things!"
Zhao Miao shook her head helplessly and with a headache: "You, you..."
Zhao Hong said seriously: "Sister, don't worry about the third child. With you in the inn for a day, the third child can sit back and relax for a day. If you let him come to the inn again... wouldn't that force us to fight against each other?"
Zhao Miao looked him up and down in surprise: "There is progress, we have turned this corner so quickly..."
Zhao Hong replied helplessly: "If you don't turn around, you will be beaten again!"
"You really……"
Zhao Miao laughed out loud, imitating Yang Ge and patted his shoulder: "Not bad, keep working hard."
At the right time, Yang Ge's shouts came from the patio teahouse: "Miaomiao, give me some water."
"Coming!"
Zhao Miao responded, patted the melon in his hand into Zhao Hong's hand, turned around and ran towards the patio like a gust of wind.
Zhao Hong stood alone outside the inn, looking at the pedestrians walking on the street with twinkling eyes. After a long time, he clenched his fist and secretly cheered: 'The shitty emperor is also an emperor after all! ’
