Chapter 54 Go to the brigade leader’s house to discuss building a house

"Wen Lei, can't you take me with you when you build a house and move out?" Lin Lin cried slightly, feeling aggrieved and unwilling.

"No!" Wen Lei answered simply, without even giving Lin Lin a look. If she didn't slap her, it would be a gift. She still wanted to catch up. Wen Lei didn't know there were such thick-skinned people in the world.

Ding Yanyu had a sneer on his face, while Lin Lin sat there blankly, her open mouth slowly closing again. Her cheeks were red and swollen, and her eyes were reddish and tears could not fall from her eyes. She was like an abandoned puppy, so pitiful.

When we came to the captain's house again, they had just had dinner, and there was still a faint smell of meat in the yard. The captain's wife welcomed them into the main room very enthusiastically.

The captain sat before the meal, smoking his pipe, and then said to them seriously, "Have we discussed it? There won't be any noise this time, right?"

Wen Lei awkwardly took out the drawing she drew and spread it on the dining table. "Captain, look, my second brother and I are building three rooms. The middle is the kitchen like everyone else. I want the rooms on both sides to be bigger. The size of one and a half rooms, I plan to separate the two rooms in the middle, so that four rooms can be made. We will build a firewood shed on the back of the mountain, and we will build a washroom to the south of the firewood house. The toilet is in the washroom, and the toilet should be higher up. Slope, follow the water and wash it into the pit outside. Then dig a pit similar to a cellar to the south of the bathroom, and cover it with wooden boards. Do you think you can do it? "

The captain looked at the renderings drawn by Wen Lei. They were very detailed, especially the fact that the toilets were made of cement. The captain couldn't help but look up at Wen Lei.

"Okay! If you do this, the toilet will be really clean. It's just cement, I'm afraid..."

"It doesn't take much cement. If you can think of a way, you can think of it for us. We can't think of a way on our own."

"Okay, I'll find a way for you." The captain nodded.

Gu Chen took Wen Lei's drawings. He discussed it with Xiao Qing and said, "We have three rooms, one kitchen, two rooms on the west, and one on the east. Wen Lei can use only one bathroom, right?"

"Okay, just clean it up! By the way, Captain, I almost forgot, we must make a fire wall."

Ding Yanyu nodded fiercely, and Wen Lei laughed at the fact that she didn't care about anything and was just waiting to pay for a new house.

"Captain, please calculate how much money is needed. See if you can find a few more people to complete the work faster. I really can't sleep in the educated youth spot. We didn't sleep last night. We sat by the river all night. Look at me. Brother, I didn’t sleep all night, and I worked all day during the day, and now my face is green. The key is that there was too much trouble today, and a few of us stayed away all night, and the educated youth can talk about anything. Hey! Captain, you know that although It is said that we are here to build rural areas and we should overcome difficulties. But we didn’t say how big the room was before. At least one person had a bed. It’s not like we are pretentious or squeamish. We can’t do a good job if we don’t get enough rest. , this is not a slogan. Look, no one in our brigade is so crowded, right? As for you, please be more diligent and try to bring as many people as possible to help us complete the construction as quickly as possible. We can rest well after we move out. Anyone else who knows You can also have a good rest. Do you think that’s right?”

The captain smoked a dry pipe, raised his eyelids again and again, and finally tapped the pipe on his foot, and then said, "Okay, I will find a few more people to help you build it quickly."

"How long will it take to build it?" Wen Lei was anxious. The rice in the space was about to mature, and she also missed her own bed.

"Are you so anxious?" The captain looked at several people angrily.

Ding Yanyu nodded fiercely, "I wish I could move tonight! Captain, please help me!"

Looking at the eager and expectant faces, the captain nodded. "One room costs about 60 yuan, and the two rooms Wen Lei wants to build cost about 90 yuan. Can you build the woodshed together?"

"Together, let's add a kitchen room for 80 yuan per person, plus a washroom, and cement for each person in the washroom. Let's add 100 yuan for cement." Xiao Qing took out the money and put it on the table. Gu Chen and Ding Yanyu also put money on the table.

Wen Lei took out 300 and put it on the table. "Captain, if you don't keep enough, you are looking for us."

The captain stared blankly at the unity on the table, with mixed feelings in his heart. Several educated youths took out 600 yuan without blinking an eye. He didn't even know if the captain had so much money in his account.

"Captain, there's something you don't know whether to say or not?" Wen Lei saw the sadness in the captain's eyes. Thinking about the suffering of this era, she should just come to this place and do her best!

"You girl, I won't let you say that you can hold it in and not say anything? You want to say it!" The captain looked at Wen Lei helplessly, with a look on his face saying "Speak quickly, get out of here" .

Wen Lei smiled and said, "Captain, do you know why we came to our Heilongjiang Province? I have heard at home that our Heilongjiang Province beats roe deer with sticks, scoops up fish and pheasants and flies into the rice pot, but what do you think of your face?" Sad face, why?”

The captain was speechless. He curled his lips and rolled his eyes at Wen Lei. "You need a boat and a fishing net to fish, and you need a stick to beat a roe deer. Don't think that once you are lucky, you will be lucky again. How many prey can there be outside the mountains? If you go deep in the mountains and old forests, you will never come back. Don't. I just want to think about something else. Didn’t you say you haven’t slept all night? Why don’t you go back to sleep? You all have to go to work tomorrow.”

"No! Captain, please listen to me! You don't have to go to the deep mountains and old forests. The river in the village is not dangerous. The fish in the river are not only dark, but they are all in groups. It's impossible to buy a fishing net. You are Don’t you want to say that if the village has no money, then if the village has no money and sells fish, then there will be money?”

"How to sell it? You girl can say anything."

"Captain, what I'm saying is not nonsense. Listen: Lanxi Brigade, we know that --- the unit needs --- pounds of fish every day, the villagers endure the exhaustion after work, and go to the river after work to help --- The unit solves the problem of eating fish, and the workers and peasants are one family. Lanxi Brigade is willing to solve the life problems of the brothers in the worker unit. We in Lanxi Brigade are short of clothes and cloth and hope that the unit of the worker brothers will lend a helping hand. How about the captain of the brigade? As long as you can write, There is a need for the unit. No buying or selling, collective vs. collective, there is nothing wrong with it, right?"

The captain looked at Wen Lei in shock. The fifteen or sixteen year old girl looked immature, but what he said was not immature. If this can be done, perhaps fewer lonely elderly people will freeze to death this year.

"It's not bad. I can write this list. How can you be sure that the other company wants the fish from our brigade?"

"Captain, do you not understand the current situation? Where is the extra food now? Which unit do you think does not need it? If you dare to open it, I dare to guarantee you that I can get you at least two units a day. .”

The captain clenched the pipe in his hand and stared at Wen Lei with burning eyes, "Can it really happen?"

"It can really happen!" Wen Lei nodded fiercely.

"Okay, I believe you once. After measuring the homestead tomorrow, you go to the brigade headquarters and I will drive it for you. You don't have to go to work the day after tomorrow. Go directly to the county seat and I will ask Feng Tiezhu to drive you there on the tractor. As long as you can do it. I'll mark you ten centimeters."

"It's done! It's settled!"

"Go back! It's getting late, go back to bed quickly. You have to go to work tomorrow." The captain waved his hand to chase people away.

A few people walked out of the captain's house briskly. Wen Lei thought to herself that she would finally be able to take some time to walk around in space tomorrow.

"Leilei, how sure are you about going to the county town the day after tomorrow?" Yuan Jian asked worriedly.

"If you think someone is looking for my dad, what would he do?" Wen Lei asked back.

"Uncle, you should be very excited, right?"

"Take the bar off. It's useless to have money in your pocket and no food. Whether it's the canteen or the workers, they all need it. If there is a need, there will be an order. What do you have to worry about? I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm just afraid of not being able to supply."
