Chapter 377 Buying materials went well(1/2)
Considering that there were only two or three hours until dawn, in order to save some expenses, the three of them did not plan to stay in a hotel. Mu Yi thought that when dawn came, he would first take his things to Jinzhi Mo and put them away before going.
Contact to buy cement and bricks.
Seeing that no one else appeared around them, the three of them slowly adapted to the leeward environment under the weak illumination of the street lamp. They began to whisper in low voices, and gradually switched to communicating at a normal speed.
"It was so thrilling just now." Wen Bakong said excitedly.
"It's too risky." Wen Qingfeng corrected.
"Why didn't you say a word just now?" Wen Bakong asked Mu Yi.
"I'm afraid that if I speak, I will give the robber the impression that he is easy to bully. Brother Qingfeng is enough to speak. He is strong and tall," Mu Yi explained.
"Indeed. Mu Yi's small body cannot deter robbers."
"I admire you so much. What you just said has laid out how we can deal with the worst situation." Muyi expressed his admiration to Wen Qingfeng.
Wen Qingfeng smiled sheepishly and said: "I just said it casually. I don't know how to say such words. In such an emergency, thinking like that in my heart, I feel that it is the least loss.
, I just said it like that. Now if you ask me to say it, I may not be able to say it."
"You are wise in a hurry, you are calm and calm, and you are worthy of a big responsibility. As the saying goes, you show your talents in times of crisis. I am probably talking about you." Wen Bakong praised Wen Qingfeng.
"Actually, I relied on the fact that we had a large number of people. We were outnumbered. If they had more people, or if there were people ambushing them along the way, we would be in trouble."
"If that's the case, all we can do is, a good man doesn't suffer the immediate consequences and sacrifices his money to save his life. After all, you only have one life and money is just an external possession." Mu Yi said with some fear. Although he had already prepared to fight to the death just now.
Prepare. But now that I have calmed down, I feel that it is really not worth it to risk my life to save a few hundred dollars.
Gradually, the sky began to get slightly brighter. The three of them stood up slowly, flexing their muscles, bones and joints as their feet became numb from squatting. Then they picked up their things and walked towards the guest house of the Beijing North Forestry Bureau.
As soon as she arrived at the gate, she saw Jin Zhimo standing at the door of her room combing her hair.
"Good morning, Boss Jin." Mu Yi hurried up to say hello.
"Mu Yi, why are you here so early?"
"We came directly from Chengdu by train."
"Oh. It's been two or three hours. Where did you hang out during this time? Why don't you come and live here?"
The three of them said with some embarrassment: "The main reason is that I'm afraid of disturbing your rest. In addition, there are no street lights in this section, so we don't have good eyesight in the dark, so we don't dare to come here."
"Hahaha." Jin Zhimo laughed heartily. "I didn't expect that you three grown men are afraid of meeting Lari."
In fact, Jin Zhimo didn't know that the three of them had already met La Ri.
"Let me put the things here first. We are going to have some breakfast. Do you want to bring you something?"
"Thank you. No need to bring it. I'm losing weight and don't eat breakfast."
"By the way. Hailai Amu's car is coming down today, right?"
"Amu's car came down yesterday. I heard he said he was going to pull some fertilizer up today. I just don't know the specific time. He went to the county seat."
Hearing Jin Zhimo say that Master Amu had come down and was going up again today, Mu Yi felt really happy. He quickly said to Jin Zhimo: "We will have breakfast later and go to the store you mentioned to buy cement and bricks."
After paying the money, open the bill of lading and bring it over. If Amu comes first before Master Jiang comes, I will go with him to pull up the cement and bricks. If Master Amu has not come before Master Jiang leaves, we will take the Jiang train.
The master's car will leave first, please pick up the cargo ticket and take Master Amu to pick it up when the time comes."
"Okay. No problem."
The three of them left the guest house. Wen Bakong couldn't help but ask: "Mu Yi, you just said buy cement and bricks, what do you mean?"
Wen Qingfeng: "That's right, I've never heard you mention it? What are you buying these things for? Privately or publicly?"
When Mu saw the two people questioning him, he realized that it would be useless if he didn't tell them. So he told the second group the problem of water difficulty, the problems he had encountered, and his plans.
After hearing this, both of them expressed appreciation for Mu Yi's idea, but they were both worried that the investment would be too big and that Mu Yi could not afford it alone. In addition, they were also worried about what other people would think of Mu Yi.
Mu Yi was magnanimous. "I asked a knowledgeable master to help me do the calculations. The bricks are about 1,240 pieces, and the cement is 600 to 700 jins. I thought about it and planned to buy a piece of 1,300 kilograms."
I bought half a ton of bricks and cement. I’ll check the situation later and see how much money I have.”
After breakfast, the three of them found the boss who sold cement and bricks. The boss was very happy. "Bricks are 25 cents a piece, and cement is 165 cents a ton. The boarding fee is two cents a piece, and cement is 20 cents."
One yuan per ton. If you buy more, you can get a discount, but if you buy less, there will be no discount."
"How many is too much?"
"More than 10,000 pieces of bricks and more than 10 tons of cement."
When the three of them heard this, it was obvious that there was no room for bargaining.
"Boss, how much does it cost to buy one thousand four hundred bricks and one ton of cement?"
"Let me calculate it for you. The bricks plus the fare are 378 yuan; the cement is 165 yuan, plus the fare 20 yuan, the total is 185 yuan. The total is five
One hundred and sixty-three yuan, I’ll charge you five hundred and sixty yuan.”
Mu Yi suddenly thought that he still needed a "trowel".
"Boss, do you have any 'trowels' for sale here?"
The boss smiled, pointed to the shop diagonally across the street and said, "They are sold in the hardware store across the street. I only sell cement and bricks here."
"Why don't you just sell it?"
"Hey, you can't make all the money." The boss smiled again.
"By the way, boss, I'm not going to pull you away now. Wait until you give me the cargo ticket, and I'll let the master who pulls the goods do it, okay?"
"Of course. When will he come?"
"Maybe. But I have to come today. What if I come to you like this after being late?"
The boss smiled: "It doesn't matter, sooner or later, I'll be here. If the door is closed at night, just wait in line. I live behind the store. It's just that it's too late and it's hard to find someone to get on the bus.
The workers need to go back and rest."
"Okay. It shouldn't be very late. I guess he will be here before dark at most." Mu Yi was still a little unsure, because none of the masters at Zhongguo Village liked to drive at night.
After reaching an agreement with the boss, Muyi and the three of them went to the opposite side and bought a "trowel", two PVC overflows, and a PPR pipe with a faucet for fifty-five yuan. They then went to the vegetable market and bought a bag.
Take the dishes to the guest house.
At this time, Master Jiang's car was parked steadily outside the guest house.
The three of them quickly moved their things to the car, and then took turns going to the restroom in the guest house. Mu handed the cargo ticket to Jin Zhimo and asked her to help take Master Amu to load the goods.
After the explanation, Mu Yi quickly got in the car and went to Zhongguozhuang first.
Just over two hours after Master Jiang's car drove away, Master Amu arrived at the guest house with half a truck of fertilizer and some other items.
"Jin Zhi Mo, is there something to pull up?"
"Yes. Yes! Mu Yi just got in Fatty Jiang's car. He has already bought the cement and bricks."
"Where?"
"Let's go, I'll take you to pull it."
"Okay. Wait until I turn the engine around and then you can come up."
Later, under the leadership of Jin Zhimo, Master Amu successfully installed the bricks and cement.
"Hey, it's a full car. It's so smooth."
…
Back in Varado, Mu put down his things, picked up the "trowel" and went down to the village. He was going to pass Buha and they sent people to carry cement and bricks, especially cement. In case it got wet in the rain,
That would be troublesome.
I was also lucky, and I met Buha on the way, driving his horse up the mountain carrying sandbags.
"Hi Buha."
"Oh, Mu Yi. Are you back?"
"Yeah. I just came back and I came to inform you. Hurry up and tell people to come down and prepare to carry the cement and bricks on your back."
"Did you really buy it?"
"You think I'm joking?"
Buha giggled "hehehe" and stared at the "trowel" in Muyi's hand. "What is this?"
"This is a 'trowel', used for laying bricks and plastering."
"Okay, okay. I'll load the sand up and tell someone to come down and carry it."
"The cost of cement is one ton, twenty bags, each bag weighs one hundred kilograms; bricks cost one thousand four hundred pieces, each piece is about three kilograms. You have to organize people well. When we get the things up today, if it doesn't rain tomorrow, I will
Come up and build it."
"Okay. Okay, don't worry. We will definitely carry everything back today."
"You also need to protect the cement and make sure it doesn't get caught in the rain. In addition, you need to prepare more water. If you start building a pool, you will need a lot of water."
"Okay. Okay. Don't worry. If it doesn't work out, just settle the score with me."
"I won't settle the score with you. I believe you. Then I won't go up. I took the train all night and took the minibus for most of the day. I didn't get a good rest. My head is very dizzy."
