After speaking, Zhang Meng got up and walked out of the store, shouting at a store opposite: "Monkey, come here, brother is looking for you something!"

Soon a young man trotted into the store, he was slightly shorter than Zhang Meng, but he was as strong as Zhang Meng. He entered the store and shouted, "Brother Meng, what's the matter? It's not noon yet, and I'm not in a hurry to eat lunch." ”

"Monkey, this is my sworn brother Liangzi, this is my brother-in-law. Zhang Meng asked the monkey to sit down and introduced him at one time.

"Hello, uncle, Liangzi! My name is Hou Dazhi, and everyone calls me Monkey. The monkey with the great name of the Great Ambition introduced himself.

"Monkey, my brother and brother-in-law are going to build two houses after the New Year, and they need to buy some cement and steel bars, you can help think of a way!" Zhang Meng said directly.

"It's not a big problem, uncle, Liangzi, how much area are you going to build, how many floors, are you going to pour reinforced concrete or put prefabricated slabs?" asked the monkey skillfully.

As soon as Li Liang heard the monkey speak, he directly asked the key points, and knew that the monkey knew more about this business.

"Brother Monkey, my brother-in-law's house is about 120 square meters, three floors, and my house is about 750 square meters, which is also a three-story building, all of which are poured with concrete. In addition, the first floor of my house is going to be made into a frame structure. Li Liang said.

"Such a large area?" the monkey took a breath of cold air, "I estimate that this will cost at least one or twenty tons of steel bars, I wonder if you know the current price dual track system?"

Everyone shook their heads, in fact, Li Liang knew, but he also shook his head. In the early days of reform and opening up, in order to alleviate the huge contradiction between supply and demand of commodities, the state tried to divide the same commodity into planned and unplanned two. Sell at a lower price within the plan and at the market price when you are unplanned. This is known as the "price twin-track".

As a result, people with connections sell the planned goods to the black market and earn the difference in price, and it is in this background that "official/down" and "down/master" are produced. This rent-seeking activity resulted in huge monopoly rents and gave birth to China's first "quan noble capital". In later generations, when people talk about the original sin of "capital", they will always be inseparable from the "dual track of price".

"Now the planned price of rebar is more than 800 pieces per ton, and the unplanned price is more than 1,300, and there is no market. The same is true for cement, but you can wrap it around me and guarantee that it is all at the planned price. As for rebar, if you only need one or two tons, it is good to say, but if you have such a large amount of one or twenty tons, it is difficult to follow the planned price!" said the monkey skillfully.

"Brother Monkey, then I'll leave this matter to you, and you can get as much as you can in the plan. If you need to do something, just ask. Li Liang said.

"That's okay, since you trust me, then I'll ask my brother-in-law for help, he has a few comrades in the Material Bureau, and it is estimated that he can get some more indicators in the plan, but then I have to do it privately. The monkey vaguely gestured with his finger to count the money, indicating that this dot could not only give things, but must give money.

As long as you can find someone who can use it, and the things in your hand can be sent, it's good, and I'm most afraid that you won't find someone to receive the gift.

"Uncle, Liangzi, do you want me to help you find someone from the construction committee, let them introduce you to a designer, help design it and then calculate the material!"

"This is great!"

Li Liang did not study architecture, and the sketches he drew could only be shown to his family, and he had to find a professional person for the specific structural design and how many materials to use. The monkey doesn't mention this matter, Li Liang will ask someone to invite a designer after the New Year, as long as he makes his concept and the designer clear, the other party will design it specifically.

After deciding this matter, Li Liang gave the monkey the two Hongta Mountains and two bottles of Moutai that were originally prepared to be given to Song Liangren. The monkey didn't plan to ask for it, but he didn't push Li Liang. Li Liang's reason is very good, the monkey and his brother-in-law Song Liangren will definitely spend money to find someone to find a relationship. If there is still a place to spend money at that time, the monkey will directly advance it to Zhang Meng.

After talking about things, a few young people talked and laughed.

Li Liang asked how Zhang Meng and the monkey were familiar, but he didn't expect that the two still didn't know each other.

It is said that Monkey first got the store here through the relationship of his brother-in-law Song Liangren, and in the first few days of the opening, he was invited to eat at the store every day with customers begging to buy his own cement.

At that time, he was very powerful, and he was also arrogant when he came to eat in the store. Once, Chen Li accidentally sprinkled some vegetable soup on him while serving vegetables, and the dog who was scolded by him was bloody. Zhang Meng couldn't watch it from the sidelines, so he made an appointment with him.

The two had a fight outside the store, but they didn't know each other, plus the two were people of the same year, Monkey Xiaoyue. In this way, the two young people slowly got closer and closer, and their relationship became better and better. Zhang Meng himself runs a restaurant, and he often calls monkeys to come over and drink together.

"Liangzi, where did your family get the land, why is it so large?" asked Zhang Meng.

A few people talked and laughed, and then returned to the house.

"Brother Meng, I still dragged your father's relationship and bought a vacant land in the family courtyard of the food factory. ”

During this time, the market here is more and more prosperous, like when it first opened, Chen Chunhua had to buy meat from the county meat union store every morning, and now it spontaneously forms a vegetable market every morning, and even the county meat department has opened a store here, so you don't have to go to the county seat to buy meat. Zhang Meng rushed back once a week just to reconcile with his mother Chen Chunhua, and he didn't know about Li Liang's family's purchase of land.

"Then why is the first floor designed as a frame structure, which uses more steel and cement than a brick-concrete structure?" Zhang Meng asked in surprise.

"The land was right next to the fence of the food factory, and the road was just outside the wall. When we bought it, we agreed with the food factory and they allowed us to open the fence on the street when we arrived. Li Liang said.

So it turned out that the monkey was interested, and he asked on the side, "Ryoko, is there any open space there?"

"It seems that there is, I'll go back and ask, why are you also interested?"

"I'm making some money with my brother-in-law now, and my parents and sister are nagging in my ear all day long, for fear that I will use the money to gamble. I think it's better to buy a piece of land and build a few storefront houses like yours, and then I won't have to worry about eating and drinking if I don't do this business!"

Hou Dazhi is as his name suggests, he still has a vision, Li Liang thought that he should have learned from Song Liangren, and Song Liangren made a fortune early in his previous life.

"Brother Monkey, Brother Meng, you don't lose money when you buy land, even if there is no vacant land in the food factory, you can buy a few houses facing the street and demolish them and build them yourself. If you look at us here, you will know that there will definitely be more and more people doing business in the future, and they will not lose money. Li Liang said.
