Chapter 43: Showing Wealth
Luo Bencheng also wanted to lay cement on the floor of his house, but he didn't have acquaintances in the cement factory and couldn't buy it at all. The floor at home is still made of triple mud. Although the Sanhe mud is also compact, it will still become potholes over time. And it's black and doesn't look good.
The department stores in the city are all paved with cement and are very smooth. Luo Bencheng also wants to make his family like that.
Unexpectedly, Changgui suddenly brought dozens of tons of cement from the cement factory. I heard that in addition to laying cement floors at home, even the pigsty is also covered with cement floors. Hemp linen blank! I haven't laid a concrete floor in my house, and your dog wants to lay it in the pigsty. Be a person!
Changgui sneezed non-stop, and it is estimated that Luo Bencheng's family is not the only one in the village who scolds him behind his back.
"Changgui, can I get a little cement from you?" Zhang Fangqing ran to Changgui's house and asked tentatively.
"I'm sorry. I bought what I needed, and gave it to you, and I didn't have enough for myself. Changgui said.
"Can you get me some cement, then?" Zhang Fangqing asked.
Changgui didn't want to beg Zhao Shuisheng anymore, this person was holding a shelf, which made Changgui dislike it very much. Moreover, he could not set this precedent. Otherwise, Xuefeng Village will come to him one by one to get cement, and if he doesn't help, the entire Xuefeng Village will be offended.
"Sixth, it's not that I won't help you. I have entrusted this to someone else. After making so much cement at one time, people will definitely not be happy to do it again. Jinshiqiao Cement Plant seems to be about to increase its production capacity, maybe it will be able to supply it after a while, you don't have to rush anyway. Let's wait. Changgui said.
The sixth child was unhappy in his heart, thinking that you buy pumps and tractors, and every time I am the first to take care of the business. Please do something, and you won't help. It's not a thing. Unexpectedly, if it weren't for Changgui's pump, his seedlings would have died long ago. So far, there hasn't been a single rain, and not a drop of water has been seen in the canal.
In the past few days, even the water in the inverted rainbow pipe is almost dry, and some people in the village have gone into the inverted rainbow pipe to catch fish, and many fish have come up. These fish escaped from the reservoir when it was released.
Many leaky rice fields in Xuefeng Village have begun to dry up again, and Changgui's diesel engine is about to start again.
The sixth didn't ask for it, so the people in Xuefeng Village knew Changgui's attitude.
Robben was also hesitating to come to Changgui to share some cement, but now he has dispelled the idea. If he didn't get cement, his face as the secretary of the brigade would be completely ruined.
"Dog, it's not a thing!" Luo Bencheng scooped up a shoe and threw it at the big yellow dog lying in the shade of the tree, sticking out his tongue and panting.
The big yellow dog whined, got up and ran away, snake spirit disease! Brother dog, I'll recruit you for a sleep!
Luo Bencheng got up and wanted to drink some water, only to find that he had thrown his shoes out just now, so he could only wear shoes with one foot and barefoot with the other, and went outside to pick up the shoes.
The progress of Changgui's house is a little fast, and in a few days, it has already reached the wall stack.
"Changgui, I have to hurry up and buy a house Liang. You can't buy it in the town, you have to buy it at the tree farm. "Changfu didn't expect the room to be built so quickly.
Who made Changgui use so much cement! Cement sets faster than lime and hardens overnight, as long as you water it on time every day, don't burn the cement, and the lime of the walls built with cement should be stronger.
As long as you can buy it, it's not a difficult thing to do.
"I'm familiar with the forest farm, I'll accompany you to buy it." Changfu has been engaged in a side business in the forest farm for a long time and is very familiar with the forest farm. Now wood is also in short supply, in recent years, there are a lot of houses and furniture, and wood is also in short supply. But you can still buy it.
Changgui drove the tractor directly to the Snow Peak Forest Farm. Changfu has a good reputation over there, and directly found the director of the forest farm.
"Changfu, if you want wood, there must be. If someone else comes, not necessarily. "Changchang Xiao is very familiar with Changfu. Originally, two years ago, Director Xiao was going to leave Changfu in the forest farm, but in the end it was not done, otherwise Changfu would now be a regular worker in the forest farm.
"This time it was my brother who built the house, and he took that the beams of the old house were rotten and could not be used, so he had to buy all the beams of the new house. You can help me get some good ingredients. Changfu handed Xiao Changchang a cigarette and lit it again.
"No problem, no problem. Come to our forest farm, there is nothing else, but there are many good wood. Go back and pick it up yourself, and if you fancy a pile of wood, you can just pull it away. Changfu, my own people, tell you the truth, this wood is getting more and more beautiful now, your brother has built a new house, and he must buy furniture. You've got all the wood ready at once. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to come back in the future. We have almost cut down all the forests we can do. You've been doing things here all these years, and you know that. "Director Xiao really treats Changfu as his own.
Changgui immediately agreed: "Then buy more." Brother, doesn't my sister-in-law also want to make new furniture? It's better to buy it together this time. Hire a master carpenter to make furniture. ”
Changfu now has some money with Changgui, and when it comes to making furniture, he is also a little excited.
"Then you have to make furniture in your new house, and you have to prepare it." Changfu said.
Changgui paid the money and completed the formalities. Changfu has been in Mushan for a long time, and with the guidance of acquaintances, he chose a bunch of the best wood. It didn't cost much here, just a few packs of cigarettes.
"Brother, I'm going to go to Dayong in the next two days. Or the two of us. Zong Qiu didn't bring it with him. Changgui said.
"Yes. I brought Wang Yanhu and Ma Yongxing here once, and the two of them dragged the wood. Changfu nodded. A trip to Dayong can also increase his income a lot.
Changgui counted all the cash in the family, kept enough money to build a house, and put everything else on his body. He was going to go to Shao Qing first and deposit the money in Shao Qing's bank. With so much cash, it's not safe to keep at home. If you go out by yourself and are served by a thief, it will be a big loss.
Now he is building a house again, and he is buying a tractor and a diesel engine, which can be regarded as revealing his wealth. As for the excuse of borrowing money from Junwu, it is simply untenable, and those with a little brains will not believe it.
The relationship between Changgui and Wang Junwu can only be regarded as average, how could Wang Junwu borrow so much money to Changgui? The more Changgui hid and pinched it like this, the more interested the people in Xuefeng Village were in Changgui's way to make money.
"Zong Qiu, you go to Aunt Chunxi's house for a few days to eat these days. If you are scared at night, go and sleep with your brother. Or ask your brother to come and sleep with you. Changgui said.
"Dad, you better take me with you. I don't want to be alone at home. "Zong Qiu wants to be coquettish in front of Changgui.
"No way!" Changgui had a firm attitude this time, "This time Dad went out and had some things." Can't take you with me. ”
This time I also went out with a lot of advanced, and I came back with a lot of cash. It is indeed not very convenient to bring Zong Qiu.
Changgui handed over all the money he had left at home to Zhang Baocheng.
"Baocheng, you help me take care of the money. Every day's wages are paid every day. lest you be dragged off later. Changgui said.
"Yes. You guy put so much money in my hands, aren't you afraid that I will catch the oil cake (swallow it alone)? Zhang Baocheng asked Changgui with a smile.
"If you just have such a little vision, I will use this money to recognize you as a person. If you believe me, I'll make a lot of money with you in the future. Changgui did not hesitate to throw a stack of great unity to Zhang Baocheng.
"How much?" Zhang Baocheng was anxious.
"I didn't pay attention carefully, you take the money from here every day and use it, use the rest, and return it to me when you come back." Changgui said.
"Then I don't dare to care about your foolish accounts, you wait, I'll count the money. Count them. My brother settles the account, no matter how much you trust me, this account still has to be clear. Zhang Baocheng said.
"Well, it's my fault. You dot. Changgui really didn't carefully count the specific amount of money, the family used the rest, and he took 5,000 yuan from the total money and put it inside.
Zhang Baocheng counted, more than eight thousand.
"Where do you use so much?" Zhang Baocheng wanted Changgui to take some back.
"I'm putting this money at home. I went out, and Zong Qiu was alone at home, and it was not safe to put this money at home. I reckon a lot of people will be eyeing me. Changgui said.
"That's for sure. You are buying a pump, buying a tractor, building a house, building a house and making such a big position, no one in Xuefeng Village doesn't know that you have made a lot of money. Now someone catches me and asks me how you made so much money, and how many points we have. Changgui, I'm just telling you, it's not that I'm going to share your money. It's your ability to make a lot of money. I'm very satisfied that you can take us and pay us such a high salary. After two years of saving, I'll build a house like yours. Zhang Baocheng said.
"I don't have to build a house like that. How long has it been since you built this house? In a few years, when the reinforced concrete is good to sell, we will build villas. Changgui said.
"What is the villa like?" Zhang Baocheng asked.
"You'll find out later." Changgui said with a smile.
"Okay, this villa will depend on you in the future." Zhang Baocheng said.
Changgui and Changfu arranged everything at home and left early the next morning.
Wang Yanhu and Ma Yongxing drove tractors to Changgui directly to the bus station in the county seat. I also helped tie the goods to the roof of the car.
This trip, Changgui and Changfu brought three hundred catties of stone fungus together. I didn't bring them all, mainly when I arrived in Shaoqing, and the two of them had to change trains. It's too heavy to move.
When he arrived in Shaoqing, Changgui shouted a cart.
"Boss, where are you going?" The master who pulled the cart was also a man in his thirties. He is also a farmer in the countryside of Shaoqing. Only those who come out of the countryside are willing to endure hardships and do this kind of hard work.
"Go to ......" Changfu was about to say go to the train station, but was stopped by Changgui.
"You follow us first, and when we get to the place, we'll pay you." Changgui said.
