Chapter 175: Finding a Way to Survive
Li Lanfang's family has saved some money over the years, mainly because her family has only three people, and she has never spent any large sums of money, and she has no burden.
But this hospitalization is more than a month, the money paid to the hospital every day is the same as running water, and the cost of eating every day, two people have to buy three meals a day, even if they are thrifty and save a day, it will cost thirty or forty yuan, the money at home is only seen out, not in, fortunately, there is medical insurance in the countryside, and a large part of the medical expenses are reimbursed, so that the money reimbursed back can last for a while, but this is certainly not a long-term solution, and the little money saved by the family will be sucked dry sooner or later.
Li Zhong finally chose hemodialysis, because to use peritoneal dialysis, he needs to go to the hospital every day, otherwise he must spend more than 100,000 yuan to buy a peritoneal dialysis machine to do it at home, and the family can't get the money, and with hemodialysis, he only needs to go to the hospital three times a week.
In the following days, Li Zhong finally accepted the arrangement of fate and began to travel between home and the hospital.
As his family's savings dwindled, so did his anxiety.
That night, Li Zhong's family of three finished dinner, Li Zhong proposed to open a commissary, he also thought about this idea for a long time, so that earning some money can also alleviate the embarrassing situation of the family, this idea was supported by Aunt Li and Li Lanfang, they all understand that no one in the family can do manual work to earn money, and opening a commissary seems to be the only way for their family to go through at present.
Li Lanfang proposed to call Zhao Yunfei over to discuss together, Aunt Li meant that there was no need to call Zhao Yunfei, Zhao Yunfei was still a child, and he had to rely on the bricklayer to support himself and his sister, the burden was quite heavy, so don't trouble him, Li Zhong and Li Lanfang had the same idea, since Zhao Yunfei rushed to the hospital at night when he was first hospitalized, he already felt from Zhao Yunfei's style and deep eyes that Zhao Yunfei was far more mature than his actual age, so he agreed to ask Zhao Yunfei to come over to discuss.
Li Lanfang walked to the backyard, it happened that Zhao Yunfei and Xiao Ji had just finished eating, Li Lanfang said that he asked him to go over to discuss something, Zhao Yunfei put down the dishes and chopsticks that were washing, wiped his hands, and came over with Li Lanfang.
Entering Li Lanfang's house, Zhao Yunfei and Li Zhong greeted each other, Li Zhong said straight to the point: "Child, my disease is a bottomless pit, I have to spend money if I don't die a day, and I see that my family is about to be poor, and I will definitely not survive next summer. ”
In fact, Zhao Yunfei has been thinking of a way for Li Lanfang's family these days, and he also thought of the way to open a commissary, but he didn't know the specific economic strength of Li Lanfang's family, and he didn't know how long her family could support it, so he didn't dare to rashly put forward this idea.
Zhao Yunfei said: "Uncle, aunt, your location is very suitable for opening a commissary, the south wall is just in front of the old production team's wheat field, as long as the south wall is demolished, build three brick and concrete board houses, in this way, the wheat field in front of the house has become a small square, last month I went to work in the city, I saw that the shopping malls in the city all have squares in front of them, and the business is very good." ”
A few words made Li Lanfang's family happy, and Aunt Li also put away the eyes of Zhao Yunfei as a child at this time, and hurriedly asked: "Good boy, we have the bottom of what you said, you can talk about it in detail." ”
Zhao Yunfei smiled and continued: " Open this commissary, the biggest cost should be to build a house, in fact, this is also easy to do, and so on the day to build a house, I will contract the foreman Zhao Honghong invited over, count me to find two more bricklayers, a total of three bricklayers, small workers are two dogs and two people, let Han Tuo take two days off, and then take his aunt and Xiaofang, there are enough manpower, all of them are from a village, not far away, Zhao Honghong's wages are definitely not much, even if the money is not together, the wages are okay to owe them a year and a half, as for building materials, mainly red bricks, cement, Steel bars, prefabricated slabs, red bricks with 30,000 bricks are almost enough, the bricks of the demolition wall can be used all, now the brick price is three cents a piece, the brick money is a total of 9,000 yuan, the cement 325 number is now 250 yuan a ton, save a little to make, there are ten tons of cement is enough, the cement money is a total of 2,500 yuan, the steel bar is now very cheap, nothing more than the ground beam, Ring beams and columns with steel bars, two thousand yuan of steel bars are enough, prefabricated boards, the one in the north of the village to build a house, four meters two of the board is only more than 100 yuan a piece, we have 20 prefabricated boards are enough, a total of 3,000 yuan, other building materials and sand and gravel, and some bits and pieces, together 3,000 yuan block, you build this house is not a salary, just the material money has 20,000 yuan can definitely be built. ”
After Li Lanfang heard Zhao Yunfei finish speaking, she smiled and said, "Calculate it so quickly, have you already planned for our family?"
Li Zhong and his wife also laughed, Zhao Yunfei scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said: "I have calculated the approximate number, and I have to let Zhao Bonus calculate it, it should not exceed this number, I still have 20,000 yuan in my hand, I will take it over and build a house for my uncle and aunt, if it is not enough, I have a place to borrow, and I don't have to worry about the money to build a house." ”
In the case of Li Zhong's family, it is too late for many relatives and friends to hide and leave, how can they lend money to such a hopeless family, and there are very few people who can send charcoal in the snow like Zhao Yunfei.
Can Li Zhong's family not be happy when they hear Zhao Yunfei's words? The material cost of building a house requires 20,000 yuan, and Zhao Yunfei alone can make up for it, and Zhao Yunfei, who is underage, can definitely be called a man to help preside over affairs, and building a house not only saves money, but also saves worry.
The solar term is about to enter winter, and the construction cannot be started as soon as it is cold, so the day of building the house is very urgent, and Zhao Yunfei means that the sooner the construction starts, the better.
Li Zhong asked Zhao Yunfei: "When can construction start at the earliest?"
Zhao Yunfei replied quite simply: "Tomorrow." ”
Hearing what Zhao Yunfei said, Li Zhong's family was all stunned, and they couldn't turn around psychologically for a while-this is too fast!
Aunt Li asked, "Is it too urgent?"
Zhao Yunfei said: "Tomorrow the south wall will be demolished to make room, this must be done first, and the day after tomorrow early in the morning can be put out of the line slot, the weather is getting colder day by day, the more you go forward, the better." ”
Li Zhong nodded again and again and said, "Then the wall will be demolished tomorrow and the construction will start the day after tomorrow." ”
Zhao Yunfei also did things quickly, and said: "Since it is decided to start construction the day after tomorrow, it is better for me and my aunt to go to Zhao Hongli's house now, invite him to come to the house for dinner tomorrow, and discuss how to build this house." ”
To build a house in rural areas, it is necessary to first invite the contractor to eat, one is to discuss the wages, the second is to discuss the style of the house, and the third is to express gratitude, please ask the contractor to worry more about snacks, if the contractor can worry more about snacks, not only can save labor, but also save materials, in general, it can save money.
Zhao Yunfei rode a motorcycle and took Aunt Li to Zhao Honghong's house, as soon as this matter was said, Zhao Honghong also said to Aunt Li: " In this situation of your family, we can't help much in the same village, so let's do it, my salary is one hundred and fifty yuan a day in other people's homes, and it will be calculated according to one hundred yuan a day in your family, I don't care how to calculate between Zhao Yunfei and you, I can call the shots for other big workers and small workers, and the big workers are sixty yuan a day, and the small workers are forty yuan a day, and everyone can help a little, according to me, just tomorrow night your family will even invite the big workers and small workers to have a meal, which is nothing more than stewing more cabbage and tofu, baking a few more cakes, and adding a few more pairs of chopsticks. ”
Aunt Li listened to the promise, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
Zhao Honghong said: "In this case, then tomorrow I will go to find those bricklayers and small workers, and they will all go to your house at night." ”
After finalizing this matter, Zhao Yunfei and Aunt Li said goodbye, and Zhao Honghong sent the two out of the gate.
......
As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passes, the weather is getting colder day by day, especially at night, the temperature is below ten degrees Celsius, and most people outside have to wear thin sweaters, but Zhao Yunfei has a very strong ability to resist cold because of his cultivation of the True Dragon Technique, and his upper body is still wearing a small white coat, thinking about things while walking around the yard.
Zhao Yunfei will never ask for 20,000 yuan to lend Li Zhong's family, the project in this village earned 2,100 yuan in wages a few days ago, plus the original 1,000 yuan in his hand, a total of more than 3,000 yuan, and he has to buy more than 1,000 yuan of coal before winter, in this way, he only has 1,600 or 700 yuan left in his hand, and when Li Lanfang's house is finished, it will definitely be winter, the weather is cold, there will be no more projects, this more than 1,000 yuan should be no problem to support the Spring Festival, but there is no money in the passbook, he feels a little nervous in his heart.
Zhao Yunfei also knew in his heart that Li Lanfang's family was now the time of life and death, and if Li Zhong's family didn't get it, they would spend their lives in gloom and gloom in the future, and he would help them get through this hurdle no matter what.
Being able to help Li Lanfang's family with his own ability, Zhao Yunfei felt a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction in his heart, just like buying a mountain bike for Han Tuo a few months ago, looking at the happy smiles of his loved ones, Zhao Yunfei himself was also happy.
"How do I calculate my current wealth level? This time I'm back to before liberation!" Zhao Yunfei smiled self-deprecatingly.
From extreme poverty to coolies and dicks, he struggled all the way to the grass carp with more than 20,000 yuan in his passbook, which was not easy.
Now I take the money to Li Lanfang's family to build a house, although it is lent out, but when the grade is formulated, it is only stipulated that the money in my hand shall prevail, and now I don't have so much money in my hand, so it is naturally automatically demoted.
"Abject poverty...... You must not be in a state of extreme poverty, and strive to reach the level of Dick Silk before the year!"
At present, this lowest level has aroused Zhao Yunfei's competitive heart, but now that there is no project, it is not easy to earn 5,000 yuan in a short period of time to reach the level of Dick Silk.
Zhao Yunfei walked to the side of the pigsty, looked at the sleeping black pig through the low wall, and suddenly thought of the wild boar on the mountain, the last time he hit the wild boar, it was sold for more than 5,000 at once, for him it was simply a windfall, if he could hit another one, the problem of money would be solved at once!
