The second uncle and the third uncle saw the director of the street office coming in with their own eyes in the morning, and they wanted to ask clearly, but they didn't stop and went straight to the backyard.

The uncle went out to buy new year's goods early this morning and was not at home, so the two uncles talked together in the yard, and waited for them to come out after chatting before asking for clarification.

These days, the power of the sub-district office is not small, let alone someone in the courtyard messes up something, the director is here to deal with it!

Thinking about it this way, the two uncles didn't dare to let it go, so they waited.

Director Wang smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's nothing. For details, you can ask Chuanzi, Lao Li and I have something to do, we have to go first!"

After speaking, he went out with Lao Li.

Li Laoqi simply nodded his head and greeted them.

After all, he doesn't live here, and he doesn't know what's going on in the courtyard. He only regards these people as Li Chuan's neighbors, so he greeted them kindly.

The second uncle asked, "Chuanzi, are you alright?"

Except for being a bit of an official fan, the second uncle is very good, and he has nothing to say to Li Chuan. When Li's parents passed away, the three uncles helped to make arrangements, and Li Chuan still respects them in his heart.

Hearing his question, Li Chuan explained: "It's okay, I consulted the director about pulling the wires. Uncle Li is the electrician he invited, and he started laying the cables today."

He had already given Director Wang 500 yuan just now, and asked him to help him bargain with the power plant, refund more and make up less.

Director Wang is also an honest person, he will benefit in the open and never make trouble behind the scenes, so Li Chuan quite trusts him.

Besides, it is indispensable to pull the wires and ask him to help run, and it is right to give others a little benefit.

"Cable!?" The second uncle and the third uncle exclaimed at the same time!
Cable isn't cheap these days!
But the cables in the factory are specially laid on the top, and private electricity cannot be confused with the cables in the factory. This is why the cables cannot be pulled from the rolling mill, but have to be pulled from a farther place.

"Why did you suddenly think about pulling the wires? You need electricity at home?" The third master asked, but quickly denied it himself.

"No, what kind of electricity can you have at home!"

The second uncle also said: "How far does it have to be pulled here? Isn't it cheap!"

Li Chuan said: "It's okay. The factory has given out a lot of bonuses this year, which is enough. I can feed the whole family by myself. Don't you want to live comfortably if you have money?"

It is not so easy to buy a house now, and it has to be approved by various levels.

This courtyard house is owned by Li Chuan's family. After his parents passed away, he became the head of the household. How valuable are the courtyard houses in Beijing!
Although the neighbors are not very good, Jia Zhang makes trouble for him every day, but as far as the present looks, Jia Zhang can't get any benefit from him.

Li Chuan lived here quite comfortably, so he simply didn't want to think about moving out!
Welcoming the second and third uncles in and poured another cup of tea, the third uncle tasted the taste, shook his head and said with emotion: "It seems that we still underestimated you kid!"

With that said, he had something else on his mind.

"What's the price of your wire?"

Li Chuan mentioned to them Li Laoqi's quotation just now.

The second uncle and the third uncle looked at each other, all speechless.

Good guy, after all this is calculated, there is no four or five hundred yuan to fix it!

"You boy, you can!"

The third master patted the table: "I'll just ask, your third master, I also want to lend a hand, and give my house a call, what do you think?"

The third uncle usually likes to read the newspaper when he has nothing to do. The children in the family are also scholars. These years, because of kerosene lamps, the eyes of the family members are not very good. Yan Xiecheng put on glasses at a young age, just like a teacher.

It is impossible for Yan Xiecheng not to be aware of the importance of electricity in his lifetime of shrewdness.

No one mentioned it before, but now that someone in the yard took the initiative to pull the wires, he naturally wanted to get involved.

But this move was too cheap for Li Chuan. After all, Li Chuan paid for the cable outside alone. Therefore, the third master thought about it, and didn't really plan to take it for nothing.

"This money is definitely not cheap. As for your third uncle, I can share some of it for you!"

As soon as the words came out, the second uncle immediately said: "Why don't you count me in as well? This electric light is a good thing!"

Since you want to pull it, why not grit your teeth and pay some money, and use it up first, it is said that there are more people who use electricity, and this electricity will definitely be indispensable in the future!
Just as I was talking, the uncle came in from the door.

"I ran into Director Wang outside, and he said that you are all in the backyard, what are you doing?"

When the third master talked about it, the first master slapped his thigh and said, "That's a good thing!"

He has always been fair, and he didn't intend to make Li Chuan suffer too much, so he simply said: "Well, I think many people in our yard want to use electric lights. Since Chuanzi has taken the lead, why don't we hold a meeting and make statistics? Do you want to help Chuanzi share?"

The three uncles nodded with the same goal, what else did Li Chuan say?
Besides, the uncle is right.

He spends more of his money on the large section of cables and poles outside, which are all pulled to the courtyard, and a few more lines are installed for each household. It doesn't cost much, but it can get everyone to help. Part of the money for external cables is shared.

Li Chuan didn't want to take it all by himself, and if someone was willing to share it, he naturally agreed.

Li Chuan had no objection, so the three uncles hurried out to call for someone.

And this time it was pointed out that there was a big matter to discuss, and each family had to go to someone who could take care of it, and those who just watched the excitement and couldn't talk at home didn't need to go.

In this way, the big guys in the courtyard also guessed that there was something important to discuss!
"I heard that the director of the street office came once in the morning, maybe it has something to do with this?"

The three uncles had a strong appeal, and within half an hour, everyone gathered together.

The uncle knocked on the table to signal them to be quiet: "I called you here today because I have something to discuss!"

He talked about pulling the wires in a few words, and the chat started with a bang.

"electric wire!?"

"My family can't afford it, and I have no money to pull it or pay the electricity bill!"

"But I think it's a good opportunity. Anyway, sooner or later we'll have to pull it out. When the time comes, we'll pay for it ourselves. It's definitely not as expensive as sharing the expenses with the big guys!"

"I want to get one too. The kerosene lamp is too dark at night. I dropped pots and pans several times while doing housework. My wife is about to lose her temper."

"I'll forget it, I haven't saved any money this year, and I'm going to drink the northwest wind..."

Although it was the call of the three uncles, the people below also had their own reactions, some agreed and some opposed.

But they don't force it, it's just a suggestion.

Even if no one is involved, the three uncles will share with Li Chuan to handle the wires!
