selling chili peppers in chronology

=============================

Chen Chen thought for a moment that he had heard it wrong, and seeing that Master Hao was serious and not joking, he asked thoughtfully, "Use the water at the mouth of the stream?"

"Yes." Master Hao gestured the distance from the river to the foundation with his hands, and said, "When you asked me yesterday, I said that the tap water could not meet the requirements because I thought you were going to divert water from the small pond. I came here when I was repairing a house for Du Xingwei. The small pool was full of people living there, so it was impossible to build a house with a foundation. But now that I saw it, I realized that the foundation you chose was at the mouth of the stream. , but it can pull the tap water over.”

tap water?Chen Jianye was dumbfounded.

Chen Chen was quite happy, "That's great, I just have a headache for carrying water every day, if I can pull up the tap water, it would be very convenient."

"Convenience is convenience, but..."

Master Hao looked at the notebook in his hand again, and didn't know what data he had read, so he said: "I have to tell you clearly in advance, it is not cheap to get tap water, especially if there is only your family around here, the tap water is not cheap. You have to pay for all the machines, and in the end it must be much more expensive than the house you repaired."

As far as Chen Chen’s requirements were concerned, he needed a balcony, a fence, and all kinds of small cubicles. Those were all trivial tasks, which took the most effort and time, and when he was at home, he said that he needed good materials. , then all kinds of calculations, definitely 1000 yuan or more.

But now, this tap water supply equipment is only a lot more than 1000 yuan.

Even Chen Chen frowned, "So expensive?"

"It's really expensive." Master Hao said, "The people who ask me to repair houses in the provincial capital also want to get tap water. They also build water supply equipment from nearby houses or the tube buildings of the family members of the factory. The price is not much lower, let alone You still use one for one person, and no one will share it equally, so it will naturally be more expensive."

Chen Chen frowned and thought, but didn't speak for a moment.

Chen Jianye had a painful face, "It's so expensive, why don't you forget it."

"I don't think it's okay to not pull it." If you want to install tap water, it is definitely Master Hao's job, and you can get a construction period fee, but Master Hao is not talking nonsense for money now, but is sincerely analyzing the pros and cons. The new house is also close to the mouth of the stream, so it doesn’t take much effort to carry water, but there is really no need to get running water.”

Hearing this, Chen Jianye immediately persuaded Chen Chen, "Xiao Chen, Master Hao is right, the water is near here, there is no need to spend that money to pull some tap water..."

Chen Chen shook his head, "No, I have to pull it up."

The penetration rate of tap water in the country of the later generation he passed through did not reach 100%, and Chen Chen himself did not study the history of tap water, and did not know the specific history of tap water popularization.However, according to normal logic, running water must first be popularized in cities, then in rural areas, first in coastal areas and then inland, and if you want to popularize running water, you must first have an economic foundation, otherwise there will be no money to build infrastructure and benefit people's livelihood... …

But now, the economy is just getting started.

The big pot rice in Yongxing County was even banned for less than a year.

Want to wait until running water...

It is estimated that we will have to wait another ten or twenty years.

... and carry water to eat for ten or twenty years?

No no no, he would rather spend some money to install tap water into his house!It doesn't matter even if the mouth of the creek is only fifty meters away from their house!In short, he just didn't want to work so hard to carry water!

Chen Jianye was in a hurry, "Xiaochen, it's useless to bring the tap water."

"It can't be useless." Chen Chen said: "It's inconvenient to carry water to eat at home. We all search for it when we wash it. In the past, it was fine if there were no conditions. Now that Master Hao said that tap water can be used, we must use it. .”

As soon as these words came out, the people around felt that Chen Chen was a bit stubborn, this...

Why did you decide not to change it?

"Chen Chen, you can think clearly." Master Hao spoke first.

Chen Chen said: "Although I didn't know how much it would cost to pull the tap water before, if I didn't have the heart, I wouldn't be able to talk to you yesterday."

Seeing Chen Chen's resolute face, Master Hao didn't say anything to stop him, he just said: "Since this is the case, then I will tell you in detail. I think that in your current situation, tap water is also for your family's use, so then Buy the smallest water supply equipment, so the price can be much cheaper, and it is the most cost-effective to use.”

With a thought in his mind, Chen Chen asked, "Can you make it up to the second and third floors?"

Master Hao said without hesitation, "Yes."

"That's it." Chen Chen made a decision: "Master Hao, I don't think about the price for the time being. I just hope that this equipment is the best, otherwise it will break after two or three years of use, and that is the most troublesome thing." .”

"Okay." Master Hao agreed, and then looked at Chen Jianye with an anxious face, and said, "You can discuss it, and then I will buy it according to your requirements."

Chen Chen understood Master Hao's meaning, "Okay."

Master Hao didn't say any more, and instead walked towards the foundation.

Du Xingwei glanced at Chen Chen, and followed Master Hao under Chen Chen's signal "Go back first".

Only Chen Chen and Chen Jianye were left on the scene.

Chen Jianye hurriedly said: "Xiaochen, didn't we choose the land of Xikou to build a house at the beginning because it was convenient to carry water close to Xikou, so there is really no need to spend so much money on running water."

"Dad, before you and Aunt Liu stated that this house uses your money, I don't need to pay; you also said that buying a house in the county is also paid by you, and I don't need to pay." The location of Xikou is very windy, blowing Chen Chen The hair on the forehead was flying wildly, and even the voice was a little fluttering, "I brought up the matter of buying a house and repairing it first, and I didn't argue with you when you said that before, so don't grab the tap water from me now. "

Chen Jianye hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that..."

"I know not." Chen Chen laughed, "I know Dad, you care about money, but I just want to say: Although the installation of tap water will cost 2000 or [-] yuan or more, I think it is worth it and I am willing to spend it. The money is for the convenience of my family. As for the money..."

Chen Chen's face flashed with strong confidence, "I'm sure I can earn it back."

Chen Jianye still said: "It's too expensive, more expensive than repairing this house..."

"Don't be afraid." Chen Chen said earnestly: "Our whole family will have to live in it for decades if this house is built, and the tap water will also need to be used for decades. On average, it's not expensive at all. "

This is purely Chen Chen's nonsense.

According to Chen Jianye's intention, the water here is close, and the water is free every year. As a result, Chen Chen has to "buy" it with money. Two houses are enough to be beautifully repaired, and they cannot be compared at all.

It's just that Chen Jianye was hit by the money before, and then Chen Chen made such a nonsense at this time, he was really taken in, and he didn't react at all for a while.

Chen Chen continued: "Dad, isn't the purpose of earning money to make your life easier? Carrying water every day is so tiring. Having tap water is good for everyone, isn't it?"

Chen Jianye knew a long time ago that he couldn't argue with what Chen Chen decided, especially in this kind of situation where there were legitimate reasons every time, he never once made Chen Chen change his mind.

Think carefully about the fact that the young and old in the family go to the small pond to carry water when they have time. The wooden bucket is heavy, and Chen Chen is still not satisfied with it. .After working so hard back and forth for so long, it’s really not easy to cook a meal for half a tank...

Thinking about it this way, Chen Jianye really compromised again.

"We will pay the money, and you will keep your money." Chen Jianye said.

Chen Chen had no choice but to say, "Dad, didn't we just agree? You pay for the house, and I pay for the running water. Let's not persuade anyone. This is the decision."

Chen Jianye was unwilling, "No, that's not a small amount of money."

Chen Chen had a delicate expression on his face, "Dad, to be honest, I have more money than you."

Chen Jianye: "..."

The mouth of the creek was the wind, and the wind blowing from the river directly poured into people's necks, Chen Chen couldn't help stretching out his hands to gather his collar, and touched his cheeks and ears with his fingertips, it was icy cold.

"That's it, let's not talk about anything else." Chen Chen couldn't stand the cold, and lightly pushed his hand on Chen Jianye's shoulder, "...the wind is blowing strangely cold here, go back, Dad."

Chen Chen was gone, it was useless for Chen Jianye to stand alone, he could only follow Chen Chen to the foundation.
