It’s better to build a new house sooner rather than later, so Mo Ran chose a day to pack some homemade food in a bamboo basket, and then came to the village chief’s home.

The sun was shining brightly at noon, and no one in the village head's house went out. The two children who were playing around at the door just happened to see Mo Ran and Ajiu coming to the door. They didn't even need to knock on the door. The clever children turned around and ran back to call for someone.

"Mo Ran, it's rare to see you visiting the village chief's house." The village chief greeted them with a smile, and asked his daughter-in-law to pour water for them.

This is true, Mo Ran hasn't visited the village head once since Mo Ranchuan came, but there is nothing left and right.

The village head is a man in his fifties, with a small beard on his chin, gray temples, slightly hunchback, and weather-wrinkled face, making him look much older than his actual age.

However, people are lively and vigorous, with a strong body, a windy walk, and kindness to others, without the majesty of elders.

The first thing the village chief noticed was Ajiu beside him. He still remembered that it was the man Mo Ran rescued more than a month ago. He disappeared for a while at first, and then he often appeared in the village. Gradually, the villagers became accustomed to his existence. .

The village chief also only heard that he had lost his memory and was always clingy to Mo Ran. He hadn't seen a man's face much, but now he looked quite upright, a handsome nobleman.

Mo Ran picked up the water and took a sip of water, put down the bowl, exchanged a few words with the village chief, then gave the village chief what he had brought, and got to the point:

"I want to ask the village head to help me find some capable people to help build the house. The village head also knows that my house is too broken. There is a lot of rain this summer, and the thatch on the roof of the house will still leak after being patched. It’s cracked, and it’s not safe to continue living. I have some savings in my hand now, so I just want to build the house first, so I don’t have to worry about it every day.

Because I am not very close to the people in the village, and if I go to find it myself, they may not trust me and will not help build it, so I can only trouble the village chief. "

The village chief was surprised and confirmed, "You said you wanted someone to build a house?"

Mo Ran nodded: "Yes, I need the village chief as a middleman."

The village chief stroked his beard: "It's not impossible to find someone. All the hardworking men in our village can build houses. If you want, I can find them for you quickly, but you have to be ready to pay them. "

"Don't worry about the village chief. My wages are five cents a day per person and one meal at noon. I want to build the house within a month, so the more people who come, the better. Work hard and don’t steal or play tricks. In addition, there are three helpers who are responsible for cooking lunch for the workers. The men and women are not limited, as long as they can cook and wash dishes, they will be paid two pennies a day per person.”

Cooking is an easy job. If the owner doesn't mind, you can take some leftovers home, and you can get two yuan a day. The village head wants his daughter-in-law to do it.His two sons can also help build the house.

He thought for a while, but didn't say that he would put his son and daughter-in-law in. He just said, "Why don't I go for a walk this afternoon and let those men come to your yard in the evening to let you see if it's okay? But don't worry, I Those who were called over were diligent and honest, and so were the kitchen assistants."

Mo Ran smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank the village chief. By the way, I drew a house design drawing myself. It may be different from the houses built in the village. Will the people in this village also build it?"

"And the blueprints?"

Mo Ran handed the folded design to the village chief, who squinted his eyes for a while, shook his head and said, "Your design is too complicated, it's completely different from ours, the villagers don't know how to build it, you may have to Find a professional craftsman, go to the town to find it, and let the villagers listen to the craftsman when the time comes."

Mo Ran said: "Okay, I will look for the craftsman, and the workers will ask the village head, and the village head will accept these."

As soon as he put the ten cents on the table, the village head waved his hand and said, "Don't, don't, don't do it. I just walk a few steps to call someone for you. I don't charge any money. I will be the head of the village. The only thing I want is to help you solve some trivial matters and unite the villagers. This is not a big deal, so you should quickly take back the money and let others see what it looks like."

Mo Ran laughed: "What's the matter, I have to ask the village chief for a reward."

The village chief blew his beard and stared: "No, no, I won't take it. If you want to give it, I won't find anyone."

Seeing that Mo Ran didn't seem too happy, he added: "How about this, I will also let my son and daughter-in-law go to your place in the evening, if you like it, you can accept it, this is your reward for me. But it’s okay to look down on them, it can only be said that they don’t have that ability.”

Mo Ran frowned: "This size is one size, even if you don't tell them, I will recruit and pay them if they are capable."

Anyway, the village chief didn't accept anything, and drove them out after saying a few more words.

Unexpectedly, the final result would be to be kicked out. Mo Ran couldn't laugh or cry: "The village chief is quite honest and honest." He is a good village chief.

Ajiu, however, cared about the fact that he and his wife were kicked out: "I'll beat him up at night to avenge my wife."

"What to fight, the village chief just let us out because he didn't want to collect money, so go home quickly."

Mo Ran stared at the stupid guy who only knows how to beat and beat, turned around and went home to take a nap.

In the evening, in the afterglow of the sun setting, the men and women called by the village chief came to the courtyard of Mo Ran's house one after another, crowded together, and upon closer inspection, Li Xiu and Jiang's second wife were also included.

Mo Ran set up a table and chairs in the yard, with a booklet and a writing brush on it for registration.

At this time, Mo Ran sat on the chair and said to the villagers: "The village chief should have already told you my request, so I won't repeat it here. You can just report your name and address later, and you will be admitted. Don't rush away, I have something to say at the end. Come first."

The black-faced man at the top of the queue said his name and where he lived in the village. After Mo Ran saw that he was eligible, he stuttered with a brush in his right hand and waved his hand to stand aside happily.

Uncomfortable writing two lines, Mo Ran was about to call the next one when he felt someone beside him push his shoulder, and looked up to see that it was Ajiu.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he leaned down to Mo Ran's ear without hesitation, and volunteered: "My lady, let me write for you."

Before he could react, he reached out for the brush, moved a new chair and sat next to Mo Ran, and then looked at him, as if waiting for him to start.

"you……"

With so many eyes watching, Mo Ran swallowed what he wanted to say, and seemed to calmly call for the next one.

When others talked, Ajiu would write it down in a swish. He sat upright, with his wrists hanging in the air, and after some smooth movements, he finished writing as soon as the person finished speaking. His handwriting was a hundred times better than that of Mo Ran, and his rare The posture also attracted the villagers to take a second look.

Mo Ran eliminated a few dissatisfied people, and selected three helpers, one man and two women, the man was Li Xiu, and the woman was Jiang Er's wife and the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief, and then the recruitment was over.

After the irrelevant personnel left, Mo Ran held the roster in his hand and waved to Li Xiu, asking everyone to wait outside for a while, then he and Li Xiu entered the room:

"Li Xiu, I'm not very familiar with many people outside. Come and help me divide the group. There are 28 people here. Divide them into four groups with seven people in each group. Try to break up the people who are close to you and don't let them gather together."

Mo Ran gave him the notebook, Li Xiu didn't understand what he was going to do, but she obediently divided them into groups.

The more familiar people work in the same group, the more they will cut corners and be lazy, and let familiar people help to cover up. This is very detrimental to Mo Ran, so he will do this.

Holding the notebooks divided into groups, they went out again.

Mo Ran read it out according to the names in the list: "The above are your groups, and you will start working in groups tomorrow. You will assign the work to each group. There will be a cook in charge of cooking at noon. In addition, I will arrange another Overseer."

He glanced at the list: "Uncle Li, please supervise everyone by the way, and report to me if you have any situation. Supervisors have to work and supervise, so the daily salary is seven coins. Uncle Li, would you like to?"

It doesn't matter if you can get two pennies more every day, even if you work harder, Li Si is naturally willing, nodding and agreeing.

Mo Ran went on to say a few more words, set the time for the start of work on the second day, and then let everyone disperse.

Mo Ran was very anxious about building the house, and the house was going to be demolished the next day. During the construction of the new house, he and Grandma Mo had no place to live, so they stayed at Jiang Ping's house, and Ajiu followed. He regarded himself as a member of Mo Ran's family.

Jiang Ping's house is big, and there are two vacant rooms. One was originally a utility room. Because Mo Ran and the others wanted to move in, Jiang Ping moved all the things in it to another place, and used it as a room for a bed.

They moved all their belongings to Jiang Ping's house that night.

The young lady is very happy to be able to live in her own house, Jiang Ping, but there were some small episodes when the house was divided.

They only had three rooms, and Jiang Ping and Ruo Lan, who was pretending to be his wife, slept in the same room as a matter of course, but they didn't care, but the allocation of the remaining two rooms went wrong, because——

"I want to sleep with my wife!" Ajiu hugged Mo Ran's arm and said confidently, forgetting that he still slept under the shed outside when he was at Mo Ran's house.

Jiang Ping and Ruolan's eye knives flew over, and they said in unison: "No!"

Grandma Mo didn't allow the two to live together before they got married.

Jiang Ping felt that Ajiu's hand was an eyesore, so he walked over and took it away from Mo Ran's arm, and said, "You lazy bastard, you should go out and find a house to live in by yourself, instead of relying on Ranran to raise it, those two houses I prepared it for Ranran and Grandma Mo, not for you."

Ajiu quickly took out the silver and threw it to Jiang Ping: "I have money, so I don't need a lady to support me. You said before that as long as I pay, you will let me live here. Now that I pay, you can't drive me away. Lady I'm definitely not willing to leave."

Ajiu was sticky again, Mo Ran pushed away with a dark face.

"Don't think about it, I won't sleep with you."

"But I paid for it." Ajiu said aggrievedly, sniffing.

Jiang Ping did say before that Ajiu can live if he pays, but: "You said that was before, now I won't live."

Ajiu glared at him: "You don't mean what you say! Liar!"

The two people who were at odds were about to fight again. Grandma Mo liked Ajiu, and she was not willing to let him sleep outside, saying: "Sleeping outside is not good, so let Ajiu stay. I can live with Ranran. It's okay." It’s going to be a long time to live here, and it’s going to cause trouble for Young Man Jiang and you two.”

Let Ajiu live in a room alone, not to mention that Ajiu disagrees, Jiang Ping is the first to disagree, Mo Ran is also a little embarrassed, although they all regard him as a woman, but physically he is a man, and Living with Grandma Mo is not very good, but I don't know how to say it.

Ruolan saw that the miss seemed to want to live alone more, so she thought of a compromise: "Why don't you live alone, girls don't like to live with others when they grow up, I'm with Grandma Mo, Jiang Ping, you and Ajiu How about a room?"

Mo Ran's eyes lit up, this is a good idea, although it sounds a little selfish for him to occupy a room, but there is no way, it is impossible for him to share a room with a woman.

Jiang Ping was about to say what he objected to, but when he saw Mo Ran's satisfied expression, he swallowed it, and said forcefully, "That's how it is."

Let the little fool sleep on the floor at night!

The matter was settled here, no matter how much trouble Ajiu made, he couldn't change the fact that he wanted to share a room with Jiang Ping.

[The author has something to say: I edited Chapter 4, and put Jiang Ping's identity and some explanations by Ms. Mo Ran. I can probably read it tomorrow. If you don't understand it, you can go back and read it.

There are quite a lot of bugs in this article. If you see it, you can raise it in the comment area, and I will try my best to modify it.
