Chapter 17: Lang Village Affairs
Good?!
Shen Yanzhi really wanted to hesitate him, a good person would let people rob other people's food, although he didn't understand anything above feng shui, but there was obviously a problem with this aura change, and Lang Jie didn't know what he was planning in private.
After putting down the grain, Da Zhuang took Shen Yanzhi to see the village chief and explained the situation, there are about 20 families in Lang Village, about 200 people, most of them are surnamed Lang, only one family is surnamed Li, there are four families in that family, and there is the old man Qu who came here twenty years ago.
Because no girl is willing to marry in such a backward place, so many young people in the village are singles, the village chief is almost sixty years old this year, with a silver goatee, but the spirit is good, although it is a little strange to hear Shen Yanzhi's words, but there is really nothing to plan in Lang Village, and Shen Yanzhi is willing to send a cart of food, of course, he is so happy that he can't.
"There are really no empty houses in the village, if you want to live here, you naturally want to build a house, according to what you say, where is there a piece of land at the end of the village, which was cleared out by a family in the past to build a house, but the family went out and never came back, I will take you to see." ”
Shen Yanzhi followed the village chief to the end of the village, where there was a huge old locust tree, and there was a cleared open space on the side, about 400 square meters, square, and some weeds grew on the ground, which was very barren.
"This side of the land is relatively hard, and some things can still be planted with some soil over there, if Brother Shen wants it, he will give it to you." "The people in the village lack everything, that is, there is no shortage of land, and this land is barren, and it takes many years to raise good soil, so one is barren.
Shen Yanzhi was also very satisfied, the problem of soil quality, as long as he used his aura to raise it, the things he grew would be very good.
"Village chief, you know, I want to bring my mother to settle here, and this matter of building a house will trouble you. Shen Yanzhi continued, "I will have a brotherhood overseer here after me, and as for the remuneration, I am willing to send another truckload of grain to the person who helped build the house." ”
The houses in Lang Village are basically mud houses, thick walls built directly with loess, with tiles on top, and the others are mud bricks, and the people in the village make mud bricks to build houses, and cover tiles on the top, but Shen Yanzhi feels that the walls of the mud houses are thicker, and the effect of cold and earthquake resistance will be better, of course, he also wants to build a brick house for urban buildings, but in the case of Lang Village, he has not moved in yet, and the end of the world is coming.
The tiles were also fired in the village themselves, and there happened to be ready-made, Shen Yanzhi was very satisfied, so he asked Da Zhuang, who was carrying grain, to tell Qiu Ye that things had to be moved, of course, so many things were estimated to be moved in two or three days.
Shen Yanzhi and the village chief talked for a long time on that piece of land, and finally decided to build a house of one hundred and thirty square meters close to the old locust tree, and the door went in from the old locust tree, and the land behind was built with mud bricks A two-meter earthen wall, so that the whole land was enclosed, and it became the back garden of the house, the house was built with two floors, and there were living rooms and four houses at the bottom, and the upstairs was already relatively low, and there were also two rooms and a living room, and the kitchen was built outside, which was on the right side of the gate, basically this structure in the village.
Shen Yanzhi was very satisfied, but he mentioned that he would build a house with firewood and miscellaneous items with wooden planks at the back of the house, and then open a door in the house to the back garden, hoping that they would complete it in twenty days, and then there was a supply of 20,000 yuan to the village chief, which was counted as some wooden planks and tiles for the village, and as for the two carts of grain, one cart was used to buy the land, and the other was used to calculate wages.
At night, Qiu Ye stayed at the bottom of the mountain to look at the grain, did not come up, Shen Yanzhi had dinner at the village chief's house, the village chief's wife is fifty-four years old, a little rich, son Lang Qing and daughter-in-law, and a five-year-old son named Lang Yue.
At night, the village chief convened a meeting, talking about Shen Yanzhi's matter, everyone's enthusiasm was very high, and they got two carts of grain and 20,000 yuan for nothing, adding up to almost 60,000 yuan, and everyone present said that things would be done properly.
The village chief is also a scheming person, he naturally knows that the 20,000 yuan cannot be divided, so he decided to add three mountain-climbing motorcycles to the village, the kind that can add sheds to sit on people and load things, and finally there are some left, given to some people who burn tiles, and some wood.
Shen Yanzhi took advantage of the moonlight to come up to the platform at the head of Lang Jie's father's grave, and when he stood there and looked down, he could take in the scenery of every part of Lang Village, the chaotic aura, the weird white and gray qi, he had never seen such a strange qi before, but he couldn't study a reason for sitting there all night, and finally had to return to the village.
In the morning, Qu Lao came to him and invited him to his house for breakfast, and when he heard that he really wanted to stay here, Qu Lao was very happy, and then said that after eating, he would take him to an old carpenter and make some furniture.
Shen Yanzhi also remembered this, his house was built, but he couldn't live in it with an empty face, so he readily agreed, and went to Qu Lao's house for dinner, Qu Lao's house is also a mud house, two floors plus a kitchen, but the house is relatively small, downstairs is a room of nearly sixty square meters, the house is full of things he uses for daily entertainment, even a tea house, there is a corner wooden staircase on the side, and there is a storage room separated by knowledge.
"Grandpa Qu, are you back?!" When I just entered the door, I saw an eleven-year-old girl coming out of the yard, the girl had a round face, and when she smiled, there were two dimples at the corners of her mouth, which was very beautiful.
"Xian'er, you're here. Qu Lao introduced Shen Yanzhi to Shen Yanzhi that this is a girl named Lang Xian'er in the village, her parents have died, she lives alone, although there is an uncle and a cousin uncle at home, but none of them are willing to take care of her, Qu Lao saw that she was a little girl, and occasionally let her come here to eat, help him tidy up the house or do some things, fortunately, Lang Xian'er is very smart, and learned a little bit of hunting skills with Qu Laotou, Qu Lao also likes this little girl very much.
After breakfast, Qu Lao took Shen Yanzhi to Li Yi, a carpenter in the village, Li Yi is almost fifty years old, once married a wife, and then because he was too poor, he ran away with his son, there is a younger brother Li Jie at home, Li Jie has two sons, both are almost twenty years old, Li Yi went out to be a carpenter when he was a teenager, and learned some skills, and now these two nephews are by his side to help occasionally, and also learn the skills at hand.
Shen Yanzhi asked him to build four beds and a simple set of wooden sofa chairs, as well as some stools and chairs, and finally paid him 3,000 yuan, and gave him another 3,000 yuan of food.
After doing all this, he said goodbye to the village chief and went down the mountain, there happened to be a car that had unloaded the grain to leave at the bottom of the mountain, he happened to follow the car back, he had already found an opportunity to take out the money in the card after giving three carts of grain money in the south warehouse, and there were only 30,000 left in the 120,000 yuan, he gave 20,000 Qiu Ye and asked him to buy some easy things, such as quilts, pots and pans and other daily necessities.
In the end, he got into the car and walked away.
Qiu Ye wants to cry without tears, he is about to collapse, he has become a housekeeper and he is the wife!
