Chapter 54 Commencement
Next, when Zhao Kangcheng asked them to look at the style drawing of the house to be built, everyone was surprised again - just by looking at the drawing, they could imagine that a house would be built in the future that would make the villagers very surprised and envious.
After determining the pattern, everyone started work in anxiety and excitement.
Some villagers who did not participate learned that Zhao Kangcheng's house behind the village had started construction, and some villagers accepted Zhao Kangcheng's recruitment, so those villagers who did not participate all met with curiosity, walked cautiously to the back of the village, and then drove to the hot scene - everyone was very excited to work, and there was no danger around.
The spectators looked at each other and then left silently.
……
"Old man, old man!" Cai began to call out to Old Man Cai in a panic again.
"What's wrong again?" Old man Cai asked impatiently, "Aren't you selling goods?" How did you get back? "Cai's and Old Man Cai are still selling fried dough sticks and scallion pancakes in the village, but since some time ago, Cai's has been selling alone, and Old Man Cai is lazy at home.
"There's big news, so I'm back." Cai explained.
"What's the news?" Old man Cai asked.
"Construction of Zhao Kangcheng's new house is already underway." Cai said.
"Start? Where did he come from? Old man Cai was puzzled. After all, no one accepted Zhao Kangcheng's recruitment two days ago, why did he suddenly start construction today? Could it be that he did it alone?
"Some villagers suddenly went to help Zhao Kangcheng, and now they are behind the village, I don't believe you can go and take a look." Cai also felt very inexplicable, and didn't understand why those villagers suddenly figured out to help Zhao Kangcheng?
"What? Aren't they afraid of the beasts on the mountain behind? Old man Cai couldn't sit still, got up and began to walk towards the back of the village, and Cai hurriedly followed.
The two hurried to the back of the village, and then saw a group of people working in full swing, some were piling bricks, some were mixing cement and smearing the bricks, and some were carrying wood - everyone was doing their own work with tacit understanding, and Zhao Kangcheng was standing among these people and directing everyone to work.
"Damn!" Old man Cai gritted his teeth in anger, he thought that without people, this house would not be built, but he didn't expect that there would still be such a group of people who were not afraid of death!
"Old man, what should I do now?" Cai asked Old Man Cai.
"What to do? What does it have to do with us when people build houses! Old man Cai said angrily, turned around and was about to leave.
"I say, old man, why don't you go too?" Cai suddenly proposed.
"What? You asked me to help them build a house? Old man Cai glared at Cai, "What are you kidding!" Lao Tzu is not going! ”
"No, old man, listen to me." Cai whispered, "I'm asking you to pretend, but not really to work, twenty copper plates a month, you just pretend to work, and then quietly lazy, so that you don't have to do anything to get twenty copper plates, how cost-effective." She slowly analyzed with Old Man Cai.
"Well......" Old man Cai touched his chin, thought about it, and said, "So that's the case, this is a good way, then I'll go to Zhao Kangcheng." ”
As he spoke, Old Man Cai turned around and walked back to Zhao Kangcheng: "Kangcheng son-in-law!" He shouted with a smile on his face, instantly grabbing everyone's attention.
Everyone looked and saw that it was Old Man Cai and his wife, and they couldn't help but frown their eyebrows tacitly: What are these two people doing?
"Old man Cai, what is Old Man Cai doing here?" Someone asked, "Isn't he afraid to come here?" "Everyone knows that Old Man Cai is especially afraid of coming to the village that is very close to the back mountain, to put it bluntly, he is afraid of death.
"Who knows, it looks like I'm looking for Cannes."
"Doesn't he want to come to work too?" Someone speculated.
"How is that possible? With his temperament, he will only be lazy when he comes. "Everyone knows the bad nature of Old Man Cai very well, and they don't think that he will be the kind of person who works hard.
"Hahaha, too." The crowd laughed.
Zhao Kangcheng didn't feel much about the arrival of Old Man Cai and his wife, he walked over and asked, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, is there something wrong?" ”
Old man Cai smiled and pretended to be amiable and said, "I heard that you are building a new house here, so I will come with your mother-in-law to take a look, and by the way, come to see if there is anyone who needs our help." ”
Zhao Kangcheng's expression was indifferent, and he said, "Thank you father-in-law and mother-in-law for your kindness, but there is nothing that needs your help." ”
"Yes." Zhao Kangcheng's unceremonious refusal made the smile on Old Man Cai's face stiffen, and he almost couldn't hold back his anger.
Seeing that Old Man Cai's face was wrong, Cai's face hurriedly preemptively said: "Son-in-law, don't be so polite, your father-in-law really wants to help you, I heard that you are recruiting workers here, and the salary is twenty copper plates a month, so your father-in-law also wants to work here, right, old man?" ”
"Yes, that's right, after all, there are twenty copper plates to earn, how about son-in-law?" Old man Cai nodded and said.
"Huh?" The onlookers were surprised to hear the words of Old Man Cai and Cai's family, but they didn't expect Old Man Cai to really want to come to work!
Zhao Kangcheng looked at Old Man Cai and Cai, as if he wanted to see through what the two were thinking.
Being stared at by Zhao Kangcheng all the time, Old Man Cai and the Cai family almost couldn't maintain the expressions on their faces because of their weak hearts.
Zhao Kangcheng retracted his gaze and said, "This, I'm afraid it won't work......"
"What do you mean!" Immediately, Old Man Cai was unhappy, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and he said angrily, "Are you reluctant to give up those twenty copper plates?" ”
"Not really." Zhao Kangcheng explained calmly, "It's just that what we need is a young person, my father-in-law is old, if something happens on the construction site, I can't explain it to Xiaoxiao." ”
"What is there to confess, didn't she cut ties with us a long time ago!" Old man Cai snorted coldly, "You were also prevaricated by those excuses, so you can say if I can come!" With an impatient face, it was obvious that if Zhao Kangcheng didn't agree to come down, he wouldn't leave.
"Isn't my father-in-law afraid of the beasts on the back mountain?" Zhao Kangcheng reminded.
"Forehead......" Old man Cai's body stiffened for a moment, and then he smiled dryly, "There are so many people, no matter how many beasts can run away, hehehe......"
"In that case, then the father-in-law will come." Zhao Kangcheng finally agreed.
Old man Cai and Cai glanced at each other happily, and Old Man Cai said with a positive look: "Then I'll go and help now!" As he spoke, he walked towards the crowd in a hurry.
"That old man, you're busy here, I'll go home and make you something to eat." Cai said with a wave of his hand.
