Chapter 100 Recruiting people to build houses in our village
Old man Wang looked at everyone in the room trying to persuade him, then he turned around to look at his son with eyes full of expectation and his grandson with red eyes from crying.
After thinking for a long time, he finally nodded.
"Sell it... Nephew, I have watched you grow up. It's not that I don't trust you, but that's our ancestral home..."
"Woo woo woo, you have to treat it well."
When Old Man Wang thought about selling his ancestral home, he burst into tears and no matter how Wang Dafu tried to persuade him, it was useless.
Looking at the identical looks of the grandfather and grandson, Cui Yunzhu finally knew who the little brat on the ground inherited his genes from.
Fortunately, the matter was resolved. Old Man Wang was willing to take care of his health, and this family didn't have to experience the separation of life and death.
Moreover, she glanced at the ground...
This little brat has his grandfather's support again.
When Wang Baoer heard what his grandfather said, he got up from the ground with his mouth full of big teeth, wiped his nose with his sleeve, and stood there smiling foolishly.
In the yard, Wang Dafu looked at the silver that Cui Yunzhu handed to him, which was more than three taels. He took a closer look and found that there was 3 more coins!
He was so frightened that he was at a loss what to do, and quickly retreated, "Sister-in-law, this, this is 100 more coins, I can't take it."
Their family is short of money now, but if Dad knew about this, he would jump out of bed and spank him.
Cui Yunzhu took two steps back and refused to take it. "Brother Wang, just consider it as a token of our appreciation. Uncle Wang has watched my husband grow up, and it's really the right time for you to sell this piece of land to us!"
"If your family doesn't want to sell it, we'll have to ask Lao Liu's family to buy it. They'll ask for an extra five taels of silver. In the end, my family still makes the profit."
Five taels!
Wang Dafu took a deep breath. Even if he sold him, he wouldn't get that much money.
Not to mention, he really wanted to sign a contract to sell himself to pay for his father's medical treatment some time ago, but the pawnbroker deliberately lowered the price. He struggled for a few days and finally gave up.
The Liu family is really bold. They are asking for too much!
Chen Yan also cooperated and said: "Yes, it's all thanks to your family, and my uncle needs more nourishment now."
"Just take this money. Why are you being so polite to me? I never know if I will need your help in the future."
"If you need it in the future, I will definitely go!"
When he was a child, he played with Chen Yan for a while. Later, his mother passed away suddenly and someone was needed to work at home, so he gradually stopped playing with them.
I didn’t expect that Chen Yan still remembers it.
Wang Dafu clenched the silver in his hand and secretly remembered this favor.
.......
On the way home, Chen Yan discussed building a house with Cui Yunzhu.
"Wife, I want to recruit people to build a house in our village. What do you think?"
"Since it's close, the construction will start faster. We estimate it will be completed in half a month."
Cui Yunzhu nodded. She thought so too. It would be difficult to find someone outside when the year is almost over. It would be more convenient to look for someone in the village.
They are all people I know well, so I can rest assured. Besides, if I leave the money for my fellow villagers to earn, I can also gain a good reputation.
This is a good idea.
"Okay, let's look for it in the village."
She stepped over a large rock piled on the roadside and said, "Call our second brother along. There isn't much work to do at home lately. We can pay him a daily wage, which will be a good way to give our second brother some income."
Chen Yan already had this idea, and he was so happy that his wife brought it up, which showed that she treated the family members who were good to him as her own relatives.
He was very happy in his heart, "I must invite my second brother, he is my own brother and he is diligent. Later, my second brother and I will go to the homes of a few acquaintances to ask if anyone else wants to come."
"Generally, the wages for hiring people to build houses in the village are three cents a day, and meals are not included. The New Year is coming soon, and everyone has things to do. We have to hurry up and build the house."
"I thought we might as well leave it at that, and let them choose for themselves whether they want three cents a day with a meal, or five cents a day with no meal."
When the village builds houses, even if they provide meals, they only provide some coarse grains, which can still feed a dozen people for half a month.
If meals are not included, five cents is reasonable for this period of time. Cui Yunzhu thinks this arrangement by her husband is quite good.
Just do as he says.
"By the way, where are we going to buy bricks?" The workers have been taken care of, and we still have to think about the materials.
The man patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about the bricks. We have plenty. When the time comes, ask my second brother to go to the town with me to buy some. We can just hire a few ox carts to haul them a few more times."
"Hey, I was still wondering how many houses we should build?"
Cui Yunzhu had already thought about it: "Let's just have four rooms, one main house, two bedrooms, and one kitchen. If the toilet is counted, it will be five rooms."
The toilet must be built well. Although she doesn't use it, Chen Yan must use it.
When she thought about how the man used to boil water in the kitchen for washing, she felt that she couldn't let him live like that anymore.
She continued, "Most houses in the village are built like this. It won't be a eyesore if we build five houses. At most, others build mud-brick houses while we build brick-brick houses."
"Everyone knows that we killed a big wild boar and sold it for a lot of silver. Once the house was built, anyone who came to ask would say that all the silver had been spent and that we had even put in some extra money."
She just wanted to create this image of being penniless, otherwise everyone would be eyeing the little money in their pockets.
No matter how valuable the wild boar is, the money from selling it is enough to build a house, but anyone with a brain would believe it.
As for those brainless people who insist on causing trouble, there is no need to treat them nicely.
"Okay! I'll buy the materials according to the specifications for five rooms, and I'll make sure the courtyard wall is built as high as you want."
Chen Yan also described to her the piece of land that Wang Dafu sold to them. The vegetable garden was next to a mountain, and there was no road to the mountain like the last time she went to pick wild vegetables.
Chunchun is a steep stone cliff that no one can climb, so it is enough to surround it with a wall on three sides.
When they were almost at the door of their house, Cui Yunzhu thought of something else. "When you recruit people, you can also ask Dafu if he wants to go. No one knows that piece of land better than him."
"When the house is built, it won't take up extra land next to it, so we can avoid disputes with other families."
"Hey, I was thinking of discussing this with you later. Their family is short of money right now, so it's a good opportunity for them to help build the house and make some money. Even a little bit of money is still money."
Chen Yan nodded. He knew that his wife wanted to help Wang Dafu's family for his sake. As expected, the wife he chose was kind-hearted.
..........
Just as he was about to push the door open, the wooden door opened from the inside first.
Zheng was holding a broom in her hand and walking out angrily. It seemed that she was so pissed off by someone that her hair was almost standing up.
Seeing that the two of them didn't stop, she was about to walk out, cursing: "Old hag, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
