In the age of rebirth, I became popular in the pastoral live broadcast

After get off work, Song Hongguo and her two children stopped when they passed by the door of Zhao's house on their bike. Before she could say anything, Sun Shuhong saw her and came over with a smile, "Cousin, why are you here? Please come quickly. Enter……"

Song Hongguo stood still and exchanged greetings with her outside the door before asking, "Is uncle here?"

"I'm gathering firewood in the backyard. Is there something wrong with your father-in-law? Wait, I'll call out..." She moved quickly, talking and walking quickly to the backyard.

After a while, Zhao Baoqing came, with a bit of urgency on his face, "Hongguo, what's the matter?"

Song Hongguo said with a smile, "It's a good thing."

She told the story about how the factory was recruiting people to build houses, and finally said, "It was a coincidence that the person in charge of recruiting workers was my friend's uncle. I just had a few words to say, so I recommended myself. I am I thought, now that the weather is cold, there is not much work in the fields, and everyone is idle at home. Although it is harder to go out to work, I can earn some money to support the family, and I will have more money during the New Year..."

Zhao Baoqing nodded immediately after hearing this, "You are right, this is a good thing, a great thing, you can make money, so what are you afraid of if you put in some effort? Hongguo, you have been a big help this time, I thank you on behalf of everyone, Letting you get a favor and gain us a chance is really..."

Song Hongguo interrupted, "Uncle, I'm just a heretic. I didn't ask for any favors. I just asked a few questions casually, so don't worry..."

Zhao Baoqing naturally would not take the self-effacing words seriously. He felt grateful in his heart and looked happy and grateful. Ever since his niece lived in the village, he had been taking advantage of her again and again, "Okay, uncle, I won't say anything anymore, uncle will remember it. So what, are there any specific requirements for recruiting people?”

Song Hongguo said, "They have to be hard-working, capable, a little discerning, and have experience in building houses. When they go out, they represent our Tomato Brigade. If they can't bear the hardship, isn't that an embarrassment to our Brigade?"

"Yes, yes. I'll think about it later. I definitely don't want those who are lazy and slippery. How many can I recruit?"

"Section Chief Lu said that there are about ten places for us. You can take your pick. I estimate that it won't be long before we can go to work. The salary will be one yuan a day."

Zhao Baoqing was excited when he heard this, "One piece? That's a lot. It's 30 yuan a month, which is higher than a worker. A temporary worker only costs 18 yuan a month."

Song Hongguo explained, "Building a house is a laborious job, especially in winter, and you have to suffer a lot."

If you give less money, you are suspected of being squeezed.

Zhao Baoqing didn't take it seriously, "Why are you afraid of suffering? You won't suffer if you warm yourself by the fire at home, but you have no money. It's thirty a month, where can you find such a good job?"

"There should be a lot of houses built in the factory. This work will probably last until the spring of next year. When you select people, make it clear to them."

"well……"

Sun Shuhong had been listening on the side. When she saw that she was about to leave, she stopped her and said, "Cousin, a house is going to be built in the factory. I also heard your cousin say that you can buy it with money. This time Is it something?"

Song Hongguo nodded, "As long as he is an employee of the factory."

Sun Shuhong's eyes lit up when she heard this, "How much is it approximately?"

Song Hongguo said, "It is divided into three types of houses: large, medium and small. The small house is 30 square meters, the medium house is 60 square meters, and the large house is 90 square meters. The preliminary estimate is ten yuan per square meter. After the completion, the cost will be calculated and any excess will be reimbursed."

Zhao Zhenhua must have told Sun Shuhong this information in private, but she asked about it now, firstly to confirm it, and secondly, to make sure it was clear. Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Sun Shuhong dropped her face and said with a wry smile, "Is it so expensive? There is no hope. With your cousin's salary, without food or drink, the money you make in a month is not enough to buy two square meters. "

"My cousin is still in the probation period. After he officially starts working, his salary will increase. Each person can earn more than 20 yuan. If he really saves up, he can buy a small apartment in one year. In the small apartment, he also brings It has a bathroom and a kitchen, so it’s quite convenient to live in except that it’s not spacious enough.”

Sun Shuhong glanced at Zhao Baoqing cautiously and saw that he had no expression with his hands behind his back, so she smiled dryly and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Song Hongguo felt relieved and said calmly, "There's no need to worry, the house hasn't been built yet."

Not long after she left, Zhao Zhenhua came back. As soon as he entered the house, he was called by Zhao Baoqing. He opened his mouth and asked, "Do you want to buy a house?"

Zhao Zhenhua was confused, "What kind of house should I buy?"

Zhao Baoqing saw that his surprised expression was not fake, and most of the anger in his heart immediately dissipated, but there was still a bit of annoyance on his face, "Are you pretending to be stupid with me? Aren't the factories going to build their own houses? You didn't do that in private? Are you talking to your wife?"

Zhao Zhenhua came to his senses, leaned against the kang, and said disapprovingly, "Is it worth pretending to be stupid about this? There's nothing shameful about it. The whole factory is talking about it, and it's almost going to explode." Well, who wouldn’t murmur a few words? We conducted a public opinion survey two days ago to count how many people were willing to pay to buy a house. Today, more than 100 people went to the Finance Department to pay. I heard that construction will start as soon as the money is received. .”

Zhao Baoqing frowned and looked at him, "Then why didn't you say anything when you came back?"

Zhao Zhenhua smiled mockingly, "What's the use of my coming back? Is it possible that you can agree to my buying a house? Believe it or not, if I mention this matter, our family will have another lawsuit. Why should I be unhappy?" "

Zhao Baoqing glared at him, "Then you can tell me in private."

Zhao Zhenhua rolled his eyes, "It's no use saying no to you in private? Besides, I have to embarrass you, oh, and you have to suspect that I want to separate and live alone again, tsk, just like now, I didn't say anything. , why don’t you call me in and give me a scolding?”

"When did I scold you?"

"Look at me now, aren't you just blowing your beard and staring at me?"

"Little bastard..."

The two men argued for a while, and the atmosphere relaxed. Zhao Zhenhua asked curiously, "How did you know about this? Who came to you to tell you?"

Zhao Baoqing said, "Hong came to me just now and said that the factory was building a house and needed temporary workers. She had a relationship with Section Chief Lu who was in charge of this matter and helped our village secure more than a dozen places. I was just patronizing and happy. I didn’t think much about it, I didn’t know until your wife asked..."

After a pause, he said angrily, "How did you two discuss this behind your back? You really don't want to buy a house and move out? Then why did your wife test me?"

Zhao Zhenhua looked helpless, "I can't take it off yet. Yes, Shuhong and I discussed it in private, but we both knew in our hearts that our family would definitely not agree. A small apartment costs 300 yuan. This money Who will pay? My salary saved for one or two years is enough, but who owns the house after I buy it? Is it possible for my eldest brother and my second brother to live out there? So, we just muttered a few words and didn’t dare to think about it. Don’t worry. .”

Zhao Baoqing sighed, "Dad knows that you are not willing to give in, but you are not the only one in this family. Now that the job in the factory belongs to you, dad can still hold it in. If you bring up buying a house again, the family will have to break up. Wait a minute." Well, if you can wait until the factory allocates welfare housing, then your family of three will move out, and dad will never stop you."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhenhua smiled, okay, it's better than no hope.
