Chapter 40 Covering You First
Several people were sitting together chatting, and Wei Guomin hurriedly said, "Old Jiang, those who came today should not go back! Although our brigade says the conditions are not as good as yours, we can still afford one meal."
Secretary Jiang was not stupid. After listening to Wei Guomin's words, he knew that Wei Guomin was not going to ask the Fang family to pay for this meal. He glanced at Fang Yuan and Fang Yuan smiled and said, "Secretary Jiang, please send me 50,000 more bricks tomorrow."
Let’s go to our brigade headquarters.”
Secretary Jiang smiled, nodded and said to Wei Guoguo, "Old Wei, your brigade is blessed. The children you teach know how to be grateful."
Wei Guomin was laughing so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. His father looked confused and his face was about to turn black. Are you kidding? Fifty thousand bricks, even if they cost two cents a piece, is still a thousand dollars. Wei
The citizens have no shame at all.
When Dad was about to speak, Fang Yuan silently held down Dad's hand and said, "Dad, let me show you the bricks fired by the Qianjiang Brigade. They are light and strong."
Dad was dragged out of the house by Fang Yuan, and he said dissatisfiedly, "What? Stopping me and not letting me speak? Old Wei is a bit too much, fifty thousand bricks, even if the bricks cost nothing, you can't just say that you want to leave."
Bite it away? I'll talk to him."
Fang Yuan quickly stopped his father and whispered, "Dad, don't worry, this time the Qianjiang Brigade can give me 400,000 bricks, how many do you think I can use? What should I do with the remaining bricks? Sell them?"
"
"If I dare to sell, some people will dare to label me as a speculator. But if I don't sell, it's not a problem. If someone dares to steal the bricks at night, I don't know how many people will be concerned about it. It's easy to get into trouble. If you expect
My five dogs, I'm afraid they will also be stewed by then."
The father hesitated for a moment, then Fang Yuan continued, "Also, Uncle Wei is really good to our family. I also looked at the house in the team headquarters. It collapsed immediately. Some of the bricks I couldn't use were given to the production team. It's not
If I give it to an individual, the production team will have to remember me, okay? I’ll build a house and work later, so the team won’t give me any convenience?”
"Besides, the autumn harvest is coming soon this year. I guess we can give our family a happy job by then. You and your second brother do the heaviest work every year just to earn more work points. My second brother is fine. What about you?
?How old are you to still work so hard? Do you think you are a young man?"
Dad's eyes shot up and he muttered, "I'm still better than you at work!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Fang Yuan smiled, people say old children, this person is very old, and sometimes he is almost like a child. If you are stubborn with him, the more you talk, the more you will fall apart, which is a good thing
I had to say it was bad, so I coaxed him to come.
"Dad, this brick can save at least 300,000 yuan for our family. I thought about it. I don't have to worry about the house for my second brother and I." Fang Yuan said.
"Not in a hurry? Aren't you in a hurry?" Dad glared at Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan said, "This is what I think. First, you and I will demolish half of the old house and build it up with bricks and tiles. Then my second brother and I will start the construction again. When we are almost done, we will build the remaining half."
I will replace it with bricks and tiles for you, 300,000 bricks, more than enough!"
"I don't want it. Your mother and I are half buried in the ground, so why waste those bricks? Build it yourself, make it bigger, and don't worry about us." The father immediately shook his head and said he didn't want to say anything.
Fang Yuan's stubbornness has also emerged. The two of them share the same blood. When it comes to being stubborn, who is inferior to the other?
"If you don't build it, I won't build it either. Just leave the bricks there and I'll see how long it takes for people to steal them all." Fang Yuan said seductively.
The father angrily said, "You are stupid, aren't you? Your mother and I have lived in mud houses all our lives, and we are not used to living in brick houses."
"You'll just get used to it!" Fang Yuan said. Without waiting for his father to speak, he immediately said, "Besides, just say you don't want to. What about the sixth and youngest? When the fifth comes back to get married, I and I
The second brother lives in a brick house, let him live in a mud house?"
Dad was speechless by Fang Yuan's question. Fang Yuan continued, "Dad, the house is leaking like a shower head. If you don't say anything else, you can't just consider the health of the sixth and youngest.
Let’s continue living in this mud house.”
"I...sigh!" Dad sighed and waved his hand, "Forget it, I don't care. Your dad has no ability. He has never gotten anything decent for you in his life. You will still have to rely on you to support me when he gets old.
, Shameful!”
Fang Yuan's nose felt sore. Did he complain in his previous life? Yes, he did. He complained about why he was not from the city, why he did not eat commercial food, why he had to face the loess and his back to the sky, why others gave him a professional title, and why his family members
Just say one thing, I have worked hard for many years, but I have been overtaken by the younger generations one after another.
But when he got old, Fang Yuan understood what he was complaining about. Even if he was from the city, why wasn't he from the capital? Why didn't he live in a small fishing village? Why could he only eat white noodles? Can't eat chicken, duck or fish? Why?
Why do you need to mention a professional title? Why isn’t dad a dean or something?
When people are never satisfied, how capable are their parents? They have given themselves the best, and it would be stupid to complain again.
"Dad, what you are saying is that if we, seven brothers and sisters, have seven mouths, are hungry and cry, and can all live and grow, your ability is beyond the sky." Fang Yuan praised with a smile.
There was a hint of red on the father's dark face, and he waved his hand and said, "I am your father, I deserve it." After that, he quickly walked into the house.
"Tsk, tsk, why don't you shed tears?" Fang Yuan chuckled from behind, but fortunately his father held it back, otherwise if he had made his father cry today, then for the dignity of everyone's family, he would probably
It's up to the family to take care of it.
When Fang Yuan entered the house, Wei Guomin had already invited Secretary Jiang to go to the production team to have a meal. After all, the bricks belonged to the Qianjiang Brigade. Although Fang Yuan said he would give them away, they had brought the bricks all the way here, so there was no food.
No reason to eat it.
Secretary Jiang was not polite, and the relationship between the production teams was somewhat distant and close. If nothing else, it was because Fang Yuan was here, it would be right to have a better relationship with the two production teams in the future.
Secretary Jiang went out to greet everyone to unload the bricks and said loudly, "Unload the bricks to the designated place as Secretary Wei said. Secretary Wei will treat you to dinner tonight."
Wei Guomin also said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, there is nothing good to do tonight, fried gold bars with silver wire, two white flour steamed buns per person, and multigrain pancakes are enough!"
The so-called fried gold bars with silver threads are actually stir-fried bean sprouts with fried seeds. Crispy bean sprouts and crispy fried seeds are stir-fried together. It is not expensive and goes well with rice. However, it is considered a good dish these days, but it must not be just a dish.
Along with one dish, there will also be some other seasonal vegetarian dishes, as well as some soups and soups.
Secretary Jiang brought with him No. 30 people, two people per truck, and each truck contained 2,000 bricks. This trip can bring 30,000 yuan, which means that the Qianjiang Brigade has this kind of business, otherwise it would really not be able to find so many bricks.
When the car comes, I have to go back and pick it up again.
However, according to Wei Guomin's food standards, people on the 30th can't spend much money. Compared with this thousand yuan brick, I don't know how much more valuable it is.
