Chapter 185 Everything is ready

 "Okay! Let's make an agreement then! We'll deliver them to you when we come to pull the bricks! Just give us the money then!" Lin Xue nodded.

"But this..." Aunt Bai wanted to say something else, but Director Bai stopped her.

"Daughter-in-law, Comrade Xiaoxue sold it to us for two cents a pound!"

In one sentence, Aunt Bai was stunned. She was so shocked by the sudden joy of pie falling from the sky that she forgot to react.

"Comrade Xiaoxue, Comrade Xiao Zhang, although you don't want the money for the rice right away, the money for the bricks still needs to be paid now, otherwise I won't be able to get it out of the brick factory!" Director Bai returned to his businesslike manner and said.

.

Fifty thousand bricks is one thousand two hundred and fifty yuan, which is not a small amount!

"Okay! We have brought all the money! Can we give it now?" Lin Xue said.

"Okay! I have the receipts with me! Just pay me now and I will issue you a receipt!" Director Bai nodded.

Find the receipt and pen from your bag.

Lin Xue also quickly counted out one thousand two hundred and fifty yuan from her satchel and handed it to Director Bai.

Director Bai counted it several times before carefully putting it away, and then opened the data for two people.

"Comrade Xiaoxue! Just come over with the data in three days!" Director Bai gave the final explanation.

The brick factory is not responsible for delivering it to your door. You have to find a way to do it yourself.

Those people were using bullock carts, horse-drawn carriages, or tractors pulling bricks.

Lin Xue was still thinking that with so many bricks, even if she borrowed the brigade's tractor to pull them, she would still have to pull them until the house was built.

But when she returned to town at night, Zhang Yuan gave her a big surprise.

Because Li Qiang is the driver of the team, he drives a large trailer and specializes in pulling goods. As soon as Zhang Yuan came to him, he didn't say anything, and even the matter of building a house was solved for them.

We also contacted him for all the materials needed to build the house. Stones, tiles, and even nails were all arranged properly.

Let Lin Xue become the hands-off shopkeeper.

The bigger surprise is that he not only provided firewood but also provided coal, briquettes, and lump coal.

Lin Xue bought three tons of them at once. Briquettes are useful for cooking, so she also bought a ton and stored them.

It just so happens that a cellar can be dug in the yard to store the coal without oxidation.

Originally there was a vegetable cellar in the east corner of the yard, but it was too small to fit in, so I had to dig a larger one.

However, the cellar does not take up any space in the yard, and the yard still looks spacious and tidy.

It was already three days after all this was done. Lin Xue never came home. The chicken farm asked Zhang Yuan to check in from time to time and tell her the situation.

After tidying up all the houses in the town, Li Qiang gave her 50,000 bricks and took her to the village on the fourth day.

They were pulled over in two batches. The whole village was boiling when they saw so many bricks.

Everyone gathered at Lin Xue's house to have a look, asking questions and chattering non-stop.

Originally, Mrs. Bai wanted to go, but she was stopped by Lao Baitou.

He told the old lady Bai that the current Daliang was no longer the son he had been before, and they had better not provoke her anymore, otherwise he would not be able to control her if she went to jail.

Gangzi also made some preparations for the blind date and had no time to deal with things over there.

During this period, Mrs. Bai served him well, ate delicious food and introduced her to his wife. He had begun to like this biological mother and stopped making troubles to find Bai Xianglan.

"This little girl Xiaoxue is very capable. Look at her, she has to build a big tiled house now! I can't help but envy you! I wish I could have such a daughter!"

The villagers praised Lin Xue in a hurry, but they were also full of envy.

Although Li Qiang pulled the bricks back, there were few workers on the truck. Lin Xue found a few people from the village, and she was very tired after the day.

She and Wang Cuihua steamed large steamed buns with noodles, stewed pork belly, cabbage and potatoes, and prepared two dishes for them to eat.

Everyone is satisfied when they eat.

They all say, don’t forget to ask them for help if you have any work in the future.

Lin Xue really needs the help of these people. In two days, the river sand, cement, stones, tiles, and wood used to build the house will be brought over one after another. People are needed to do it.

Although Li Qiang has found masons, carpenters, etc., small workers are indispensable.

She said yes, anyone who wants to work can sign up for the salary of one dollar a day, settlement on the same day, and a lunch.

When the villagers heard that they could earn more than working, they were not happy.

They are all waiting for the construction of Xiaoxue’s house to start.

A week has passed in the blink of an eye, and all the materials for building a house at home have been prepared.

On this day, Lin Xue had just gotten up and was preparing to make breakfast, when Grandma Zhao from the West Courtyard came over in a hurry.

"Xiaoxue! Is Xiaoxue here?" The voice came before anyone entered the door.

Lin Xue hurriedly ran out, fearing that something would happen at the chicken farm.

She has been busy with things at home these days and rarely visits.

"Grandma Zhao, why are you so anxious? Come into the house and talk!" Lin Xue greeted her out.

"Grandma won't go in, follow grandma quickly!" She took Lin Xue's hand and started to leave.

But the smile on Grandma Zhao’s face told Lin Xue that the chick must have hatched.

She felt relieved and followed Grandma Zhao out.

"Grandma Zhao, has the chick broken its shell?" she asked as she walked.

"You're a smart girl, but aren't the chicks just hatching out of their shells? I went there early this morning, opened the quilt and saw that many chicks had already begun to hatch, and the ones that chirped were really happy! Now

All we have to do is feed them! Then we come to find you!"

The more Grandma Zhao talked about it, the happier she became. After serving her carefully for so many days, she finally saw some results. Can she not be happy?

"The team leader will be called over in a moment, and we have to find Mayor Guo to come and have a look! I'll find someone!" Lin Xue also smiled.

Now she felt relieved. Once the chick hatched, it would be fine as long as it survived this fragile period and was raised well.

"Okay, girl, go ahead! Grandma has to rush over and watch!" Grandma Zhao stopped holding her after hearing this.

Let her find someone quickly.

Finally, Lin Xue went to check on the chicks first, and saw that one-fifth of the chicks had indeed begun to break out of their shells. She felt relieved and went to find the team leader first. This was the top priority of their team.

The captain is a must.

Wang Jianjun looked at the little chicken with a smile on his face.

Finally, Mayor Guo and Secretary Li came to see it in person. Mayor Guo also distributed food and rice bran for the chickens.

A special commendation meeting was held for Lin Xue in the entire Chaoyang Commune. Not only did she praise her, but she was also rewarded with a set of iron thermos kettles, enamel steel and enamel basins, plus fifty yuan.

All the people from the fifth brigade went over, and many people from other brigade also went. They all looked at the little girl standing on the stage with a bright smile. Those who had boys of the right age at home all made up their minds.

Old Man Bai's eldest daughter Bai Dajuan is married to the second brigade of Chaoyang Commune. Looking at her eldest niece on the stage, her mouth is filled with joy.

"That's my eldest niece! She's amazing! She's only fifteen years old! She's already the director of the field!"

Although they are all in the same commune, Bai Dajuan has not been back since the Chinese New Year, so she has no idea what happened at home.

After she finished speaking, she looked at everyone's envious and flattering expressions, which was a great feeling.
Chapter completed!
