Chapter 54: Let the children pick up wood

"Uncle Tong!" The stick terrier came over obediently.

"Stick terrier, yes, I know how to cover for my sister!"

Recently, Jia Zhang's family is more and more annoying to the people in the whole courtyard, chattering at home all day long, every time I pass by the middle courtyard, I can feel Jia Zhang's unkind gaze.

Especially for Tong Shi'an, Jia Zhang's family is not allowed to contact him with Xiaodanghua, so it is relatively easy to get around.

"Huh!" Hearing Tong Shi'an's praise, the stick terrier smirked.

"Have you studied hard lately?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" The stick terrier looked embarrassed, "Uncle Tong, I don't think I'm reading material." ”

"Why?" Tong Shi'an let the stick terrier sit beside him.

For children, listen and talk so that you can know something you don't know.

The stick terrier lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "Uncle Tong, I don't know why, every time I go to class, I can't calm down, my mind is always deserted, and I can't hear what the teacher is saying at all!" ”

Tong Shi'an frowned.

This kid is smart, smart is smart, others at his age, at most, play mud and marbles, but under the influence of Jia Zhang, he learned to steal.

It's been corrected a lot, but it's too active.

It's a bit hard for you to let such an active child sit quietly and listen to the lesson.

If it is a few decades later, the stick terrier can still be a sports specialty, but in this era, there is no such thing as a sports specialty.

At the end of the day, it's just that the child is too energetic, and it will be easy to do something he likes to do to drain his extra energy.

"Terrier, I'll give you a mission."

"Uncle Tong, what is the mission?" The stick terrier is full of anticipation.

"You take the children from the compound and go outside and help me pick up some wood and come back."

To make a toy car, you need to make a model frame out of wood, and Tong Shi'an doesn't mind asking the children in the compound to help pick up some suitable wood and come back.

"Remember, you can't take other people's wood, you have to pick up those who have no owner, how about I give you a dime each?"

"Uncle Tong, promise to complete the task!" The stick terrier stood up excitedly.

It's only a dime, but it's money you've earned!

"Also, at least two people should be together, and they can't go too far."

"No problem!" The stick terrier looked at the children around him excitedly, "Brothers and sisters, did you hear that?" Let's go pick up wood for Uncle Tong, one dime per person! ”

"Good!"

"Haha, I can make money too!"

"For a dime, I want to buy firecrackers!"

"Let's go!"

Watching the stick terrier lead a group of children out first, Tong Shi'an scratched his head.

Why do you feel that the stick terrier is more leadership than the second uncle?

If you don't steal the saint's stick terrier, can you cultivate other interests for him?

It didn't take long for the whole compound to become lively, and the children came in and out, constantly coming back with some wood, which aroused the curiosity of the surrounding neighbors.

"Ergouzi, what are you doing picking up all this wood?"

"Mom, that's Uncle Tong who asked us to help him pick it up, and he gave us a dime each!"

"What? So much for a dime? ”

A dime is enough to buy half a catty of stick noodles, and these woods are everywhere outside, and no one picks them up at all!

Now everyone burns coal, so only those who can't afford to burn coal will pick up those woods!

In the backyard, the three masters came together.

"Shi'an, what are you doing?" Uncle Yi rubbed his temples speechlessly, "Why did you pick up those woods and come back?" Pay back a dime per person! ”

"Yes, Shi'an, if you want wood, you can find me, just give me 5 points." The three masters had a lost expression.

How much can a child pick up? He borrowed a cart and could push back dozens of pounds at a time.

"Shi'an, you have too much money to burn." The second uncle shook his head.

"Ahem, three masters, you think too much." Tong Shi'an was speechless, "There are less than 20 children in the whole hospital, and it's only 2 yuan, I see that they are bored in the compound, so I find something to do for them." What's more, I can use those woods, even if I can't use them, I can use them in the kitchen as firewood, and I won't suffer a loss. ”

Seeing Tong Shi'an explain like this, the three masters didn't say anything anymore.

After all, it's just a matter of 2 yuan, it's not too much, it's a lot less, if it's to buy firewood, 2 yuan can buy 200 catties, and the children can pick it up, and they can pick up about 100 catties, and they can't lose much.

"Shi'an, what are you going to do next time, can you talk to us first?"

Uncle Yi is really scared, the "Jia Zhang's death of a man in the hospital" that came out last time has not been resolved, and he is afraid that Tong Shi'an will have another situation.

"Hehe, don't worry, Uncle Yi, I won't come nonsense." Tong Shi'an smiled awkwardly.

"Huh!" Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes.

Can I rest assured? You don't usually make trouble, but when you do, something big will happen!

Sending away the three masters and the curious neighbors, Tong Shi'an also began to select the wood that could be used to make the frame of the toy.

For the toy frame, Tong Shi'an plans to build one casually, just look at it, as for the refinement, make it beautiful and good-looking, which requires those professional carpenters.

After an afternoon of hard work, the children, who had finished picking up the wood, obediently lined up and waited for their wages to be paid.

"Thank you for your hard work, one dime per person, don't rob it!"

"Yay!"

Seeing that the children were so happy, Tong Shi'an was also happy, "Stick terrier, you picked up the most wood today, and you will be rewarded with 2 cents." ”

"Hehe, thank you Uncle Tong!" The terrier smirked.

"Uncle Tong, what about me?" Acacia blossom's eyes widened cutely.

Xiaodang rubbed his forehead in distress and pulled his sister, "Huaihua, you slept in your uncle's arms all afternoon, and you didn't help." ”

"Oh!" Huaihua pouted, "Sister, you are also in your uncle's arms, so don't you have any pocket money?" ”

Xiaodang's face turned red, and he really wanted to pinch his sister's face.

You still say!

All children have a dime, but we don't, what a shame!

"Haha, you don't have any money, but I can give each of you a toffee."

Looking at the funny two sisters, Tong Shi'an cried and laughed and took out two white rabbit toffee.

"Hey, hey, Uncle Tong, you're so good! Sophora grows up and wants to marry you. ”

"Who did you learn from Huaihua?" Tong Shi'an looked dazed.

Huaihua, you're only 4 years old, okay!

"Hey, is Huaihua wrong?" Huaihua bit her fingers, "I heard my sister say this." ”

"Hm..."Looking at Xiao Dang with an innocent face, Tong Shi'an rubbed the heads of the two.

What do these two little children think!

"Alright, let's go back to dinner."

Listening to this group of children happily discussing what to buy for a dime, Tong Shi'an smiled.

Today's children are very easy to be satisfied, unlike the bear children of later generations, which are really more difficult to wait for than their ancestors!
