242. One breaks the dishes and two turns off the heat

Lin Chaobei drank a bowl of chicken soup more than Lin Chaonan, which was the consequence of Lin Chaonan's initiative to take the opportunity for him to rob Lin Chaobei's chicken neck.

After eating and drinking enough, because they did not have to pay taxes in the year of the disaster, and after the wheat harvest was done, they were temporarily idle again, and they slept in the dark the next day.

The other crops in the field were wilted by the sun, but the patriarch and the clan elders sat together and discussed for a day, and finally decided to give up.

Yue Jiujiu did not allow their brothers to go to Xishan Village alone to buy water, which was equivalent to giving up the remaining crops, so that the joy of the family's wheat harvest was instantly reduced by more than half.

Their sorrow did not last long, and they were tossed away by the fatigue of the wall.

For small workers like Lin Chaodong who don't know how to be a mason, they can only move stones and mud. And mud work is generally not their turn, they can only carry stones and bricks, and a green brick is about fifty pounds, a stone is about a hundred pounds, at the end of the day, the donkey has to be tired and lie down, where there is anything else, before the meal is finished, lie on the table and fall asleep.

Seeing that Yue Jiuyue's family began to build a wall, those who originally relied on beating stones and selling them to his family for money were immediately dumbfounded.

Is there no chance to make money again?

Some people came to the door without giving up and asked Lin Chaodong's brothers:

"Do you still accept stones?"

The brothers' answers were:

"Receive."

Some people thought that Yue Jiujiu's family would not accept stones, so they found the brother and asked:

"Do you still recruit small workers? Three or five dollars a day is fine! ”

The three brothers immediately went back and told Yue Jiujiu.

Yue Jiu heard it, and there is such a good thing! How can you not want such a cheap strong laborer, you must be recruited!

As a result, the construction team of the wall was expanded, led by a dozen "professional" masons who signed a guarantee, and the wall was quickly built.

The courtyard wall, which is more than 1,000 meters long and three meters high, was built in less than ten days, but the wall was not planted with thorns and broken tiles as Yue Jiujiu said.

First, there are not so many broken tiles and broken bowls, so you can't buy tiles and bowls to break them deliberately, right? The second is that there are not many thorns left as early as last year's digging for medicinal herbs, and the thorns on the new branches that emerged from the soil this year are not hard enough.

Therefore, Yue Jiujiu, who has never been out of the village since it was cold last winter, had to do his old job again - pretending to go out and meet so-and-so, and then bought something back.

She also had a valid excuse for going out this time, she had to go out and customize two gates, the kind of gates that could go directly into the carriage and the ox cart.

"Mother, anyway, there is no work at home now, so I'll go with you! I can still ride a bicycle with me! ”

Lin Chaobei worked hard to fight for the right to go out with Yue Jiujiu.

"It's better to rest at home for two days honestly, what's the matter, these days moving stones back and forth don't make (tired) panic? If you are really idle, there are still 300 acres of land waiting to open up the wasteland? ”

Lin Chaobei listened to Yue Jiujiu's words, and was completely speechless.

Wasteland?!

He'd rather go back to his room and sleep with his head covered!

Lin Chaobei stopped cooking, and the other two who were eager to try it also put out the fire.

If they go to the town or the county seat, they can also transform some motivation. But if they go to open up the wasteland, they will feel this pain and that pain all over their bodies, and they can't even lift their arms......
