Siheyuan: I became a truck driver

"Bricks are three cents a piece on the market right now. Two rooms would cost at least three hundred dollars. This is ten dollars, and it might not even be enough."

"You need to hire at least three large carts to transport three hundred bricks. Even if you pay one dollar per trip, there may not be anyone willing to do the job. If the distance is long, you need to pay two dollars."

"Also, we need five or six bags of plaster, which will cost seven or eight yuan."

“After the bricks and mortar arrive, they need to be transported from the gate to the middle yard, which also requires people.”

"Four dollars for two people employed."

"And my labor fee has not changed for many years. It has always been six dollars for jobs below 500 bricks."

"But for Lao Xiao's sake, I'll charge you five dollars today."

"All these add up to almost thirty."

Lin Gangtuan listed the expenses one by one, and Xiao Yun listened silently on the side.

"Thirty is no problem, as long as it can be done well."

After saying that, Xiao Yun took out two big unity notes from his pocket and handed them over.

"Uncle Lin, this is your wages and the cost of materials. Please go buy bricks and tiles for me. If it's not enough, you can pay first and come back to me to get it, okay?"

"As for the labor, I'll figure it out."

Seeing Xiao Yun so happy, Lin Gangtuan glanced at Xiao Aiguo and nodded.

"Okay, I'll go now."

Lin Gangtuan put away the two big unity cards and prepared to go out. Xiao Aiguo was about to follow him but was stopped by Xiao Yun.

"Master, even if you go with me, you can't go hungry. Here are two potatoes to eat on the way."

Xiao Yun handed over two baked potatoes.

Xiao Aiguo took the potatoes and quickly caught up with Lin Gangtuan.

Two old people were walking on the road, each eating a potato.

"Old Xiao, you are such a good grandson, so filial. I have helped people make this kang before, and everyone who has slept on it said it was warm. Now you are going to move in soon, so wait and enjoy it!"

Xiao Aiguo didn't say anything, but his mouth was grinning as he chewed a potato.

On the other side, Xiao Yun sat by the stove, eating potatoes expressionlessly, and threw the peels directly into the fire.

He was also thinking about where to hire people.

Wait until the two potatoes are almost eaten.

Xiao Yun also thought of it.

Isn’t it good for the third uncle to get something for free?

Let him have sex with you again today and let you be his free labor.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun stood up, went out and knocked on He Yuzhu's door.

He Yuzhu had woken up, but it was too cold and he didn't want to get up at all.

Hearing a knock on the door, he asked in a hoarse voice.

"Who?"

"Brother Zhuzi, it's me!"

Hearing Xiao Yun's voice, He Yuzhu got out of bed, ran to the door and opened it.

After opening the door, He Yuzhu rushed back into bed.

"Xiaoyun, what do you want from me?"

Xiao Yun looked around the room.

This room is worthy of being the main room. Its size and specifications are more than twice as good as the ear room I live in.

After a few glances, Xiao Yun explained the purpose of his visit.

"Brother Zhuzi, I'll buy some food for lunch. You can bring Yu Shui and eat at my place."

He Yuzhu wrapped himself in a quilt, leaning against the head of the bed, feeling a little puzzled.

He remembered that Xiao Yun and his grandson had a very difficult life.

Normally, if I eat two more steamed breads, I will worry about not having the next meal, let alone eating meat for two consecutive days.

"Didn't you just eat fish yesterday? Did you have anything good to eat today?"

Xiao Yun grinned.

"Brother Zhuzi, this is it. I'm planning to build a kang in the house, and I need someone to help with moving bricks and stuff. If I were to cook, they probably wouldn't have the energy. You're a good cook, so I thought of you."

This is the truth.

It is normal for He Yuzhu to ask for money, after all, hiring a chef also costs money.

He Yuzhu nodded.

"Okay, otherwise I'll have to cook for Yu Shui at home at noon."

Suddenly, He Yuzhu asked again: "You are looking for someone to move the bricks, have you found anyone?"

Xiao Yun shook his head. "Not yet. I came to find you first."

He Yuzhu became excited when he heard this.

"You can go to the front yard to find the third uncle, and don't pay him. Just tell him that you will get lunch and ask him to work. He will definitely help you."

"But the fish we had last night can't be eaten in vain."

Xiao Yun clapped his hands, "To be honest with you, Brother Zhuzi, this is exactly what I was thinking."

He Yuzhu couldn't help laughing and immediately urged him on.

"Okay, okay, then go quickly. Don't let him leave later. He goes fishing every week. He ate your fish yesterday. I think he wants to go even more."

As he spoke, He Yuzhu also started to put on his clothes and prepared to get up.

Afterwards, the two of them briefly confirmed what dishes to prepare for lunch, and Xiao Yun left He Yuzhu's house.

Xiao Yun couldn't help but sigh.

This kid He Yuzhu is too bad.

If he could keep it this way and not be hooked up by Qin Huairu, he could probably win her over.

But it's not obvious now.

After all, Jia Dongxu was not dead, so he didn't have the courage even if he wanted to.

There is a solution, which is to find him a wife before the TV series starts.

But this idea was quickly rejected by Xiao Yun.

I haven't found a wife yet, so why should I help He Yuzhu find one first?

No matter what, you have to choose it yourself first.

Who to choose?

Xiao Yun was screening as he walked towards the front yard.

My current identity is a truck driver, and I am living a very successful life.

In addition, because of the space and farmland, when I drive out myself, I don’t sell much, just a little bit each time, and the money is not a small amount.

Therefore, there can be no ambiguity about my wife.

Ran Qiuye, a teacher at Hongxing Primary School, has a good demeanor and his cultural level is sufficient for this era. He is worth a look.

Yu Haitang, the most beautiful girl in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, has an outstanding appearance and voice, and you can also take a look at her.

But these people cannot be wives. After all, the people who appear in TV dramas are not easy to deal with. If you really want to live with them, you have to find a stranger.

Before he could finish his thought, Xiao Yun had already walked to the front yard.

The third uncle, Yan Bugui, was wearing a cotton-padded jacket full of patches and was standing on the steps at the door wiping his fishing rod whose paint had peeled off.

There was a rusty bicycle parked next to me.

After hearing that Xiao Yun bought some fish at Shichahai yesterday, he was so itchy that he couldn't sleep much the whole night.

Now that it was daybreak, he ate a few mouthfuls of food and prepared to go fishing.

I was already thinking about how to eat the fish.

Cut a fish into several pieces and eat a small piece every few days so that you can eat it for a longer time.

Seeing Xiao Yun walking towards the middle courtyard, he had already come over to get the pot. He slapped his forehead and hurriedly shouted into the room.

"Mother! Hurry up and take out the pot from Mr. Xiao's house."

The three aunts in the room heard the noise, hurriedly took the pot, and handed it to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun took it over and looked at the pot that had been scrubbed clean. He felt satisfied and started to joke.

"How's the food, Auntie? Is it good? Did you finish all the soup base you brought back last night this morning?"

Hearing what Xiao Yun said, the third uncle Yan Bugui put down his fishing rod.

"Boy, you just don't understand. The way you eat it will cost a lot of money."

Xiao Yun became interested, "What do you mean, Uncle San, you didn't eat?"

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Of course I ate it, but I added some water to the remaining soup and made fish jelly. I will eat a few spoonfuls every now and then."
