Chapter 559

The fifteenth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival.

There is nothing special about the Lantern Festival here in Northeast China.

At least Lu Changhua has never seen Northeasterners eating Yuanxiao.

After eating a plate of dumplings, Lu Changhua took advantage of the wine and called Zhao Laosi to ask him to come to his home when he had time.

In fact, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Laosi came to pay New Year greetings.

At that time, Lu Changhua had not yet done any ideological work for his family.

I didn't mention this to outsiders.

Now, everything is ready except for the fourth child, so let him do it.

Zhao Laosi is eating dumplings at home.

When the God of Wealth called, he put down his chopsticks and came immediately.

"No, come back tomorrow. Everyone is very busy today during the Lantern Festival."

Lu Changhua drank the Yukou wine and said.

"Yes, yes, then I'll come back tomorrow."

This year, Zhao Laosi has become prosperous.

Lu Changhua himself brought him into the circle, and this boy not only got projects in the willow weaving company's projects, but also in the mineral water project.

Of course, this is because the contractor looks out for Party A’s face and gives him some soup.

Some soup is better than no soup.

Ever since he had an affair with that Ah Feng, the fourth child became a little distracted.

He is no longer interested in his little wife.

As soon as the project payment is settled, he goes to Ah Feng to renew their relationship.

But Ah Feng was cold to him and hot to him, making him confused.

I have never figured out what this coquettish woman means!
Wang Hai also invited him to dinner several times, and also inquired about Boss Lu.

No matter how stupid Zhao Laosi was, he still felt something was wrong.

Oh, my feelings are not to make friends with me, but to inquire about things.

As time passed, Zhao Laosi became more concerned.

Whenever Lu Changhua was asked about anything, he would always giggle.

Or just say something vague.

Wang Hai also invited Lu Changhua several times, but was rejected.

Lu Changhua did not want to have too close contact with officialdom.

You see, not even his eldest brother got involved.

I won’t tell others to the outside world which leader I am friends with or brothers with.

What's more, people like Wang Hai who are closely related to the officialdom.

The next day, Zhao Laosi rushed over in a hurry.

"Boss, what do you want from me?"

Lu Changhua pointed to his bungalow and said, "You built my house, now I'll give you a job."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Laosi immediately became angry.

"You say."

"Starting in March, you will bulldoze this house."

"Ah! Bulldozed?"

Zhao Laosi was startled.

Why is it so good? !

"Tear down and rebuild!"

"Oh."

Only then did Zhao Laosi feel relieved.

"Boss, what are your plans?"

"Look at this!"

Lu Changhua took out a printed color picture.

Zhao Laosi looked at the picture blankly.

"Are you going to build a second floor like this?"

"Correct."

Lu Changhua led him to talk one by one.

"Both the Hu family and the Han family built Western-style buildings like this. They were not single-family buildings, but were connected together, just like now."

"Oh, it's just a joint row?"

"Yes, yes, a townhouse."

"In my house, it is built in the same shape, but it is bigger and the windows are doubled."

"Yes, I understand, I understand."

"There are two houses built here."

"Is it the same layout as your home?"

"Correct."

Lu Changhua explained to him for a while, and suddenly thought of the details.

"Fourth, there is also a bathroom, running water, and heating."

"Ok."

Zhao Laosi was serious. He had already taken out a small book and recorded Lu Changhua's requirements in detail.

"What are your plans about the sewers?"

Lu Changhua asked.

"The sewer, I plan to approach the factory."

Zhao Laosi pointed towards the Smurf Beverage Company's factory.

"Don't they have sewers?"

The drainage water from the Smurf Factory has been purified and does not pollute farmland and water sources.

"No, domestic sewage cannot be connected in."

The proposal was rejected.

"Can you take a look at the vegetable cellar in front?"

It turns out that on the edge of the vegetable garden, on the south side of Kindergarten Road, are several abandoned vegetable cellars.

When it was a labor camp, this was a vegetable cellar for storing vegetables.

Each vegetable cellar is nearly 40 meters long and [-] to [-] meters wide.

After it was converted into a state farm, these vegetable cellars were abandoned.

The original top cover was removed and turned into pits four to five meters deep.

There is water half a meter deep in the pit.

According to Lu Changhua, as long as one of the vegetable cellars is covered, it can be turned into a septic tank.

This fertilizer tank is only used by these families, and they may not need to pump out excrement water for ten years.

Lu Changhua led Zhao Lao Si to look at these vegetable cellars, and said, "Can this be used as a septic tank?"

"Well, it's OK, but the amount of work is too big, isn't it?"

"If you want to temporarily drain the water, just shoot it in. It's just too smelly in summer."

Zhao Laosi said.

"Who doesn't know it stinks?! Can't you put a cover on it?"

"Boss, the size of this vegetable cellar is enough for three farms. Just yours, it's just killing a chicken with a knife! It's a waste."

"Hey, is it a waste? I just want to use this waste vegetable cellar to save us from digging."

These abandoned vegetable cellars are basically connected into a piece, not just one or two.From here to the south, close to the edge of the vegetable garden, all the way to the machine maintenance team's farm tool yard, there are more than a dozen abandoned vegetable cellars.

Lu Changhua played in this area when he was a child and is familiar with it.

Many people in the branch knew that there was an abandoned vegetable cellar here.

"Apart from the cost of covering the lid, there is nothing else needed, right?"

Lu Changhua fantasized about spending this amount of money to put a cover on this vegetable cellar.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Laosi smiled.

"Boss, you may have misunderstood."

"Ok?"

"This is a pit. If you want to use it as a septic tank, you need to fill it with reinforced concrete from the bottom to both sides, otherwise it will collapse when soaked in water."

When he said this, Lu Changhua's heart trembled.

"How much?"

"Just this one pitfall is 10,000+20."

"so much?"

"Boss, the pit is too big."

"For this span of tens of meters, load-bearing columns and beams must be poured in the middle, and a concrete roof must be poured on top."

"Then what suggestions do you have?"

"Let me see, you and your family can just dig a small pit in the land behind your house, and it won't cost much."

Zhao Laosi squinted his eyes and thought for a while before saying.

"Isn't it necessary to smoke every year?"

"It's not necessary. Just smoke it once every two or three years. That's better than your plan! It only costs a few hundred yuan to smoke it once!"

Lu Changhua thought about it and realized that what Zhao Laosi said was true.

With that 20, you can smoke it for a lifetime.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

"Measure the dimensions and come up with a budget."

"Boss, we can't get the budget right now."

"What?"

"The structure of your house hasn't been revealed yet. How do you budget for it?"

"Uh, that's right. Then just make a drawing."

"Okay, I'll find someone to get a blueprint first."

After finishing all this work, Lu Changhua invited Zhao Laosi into his home and had lunch before leaving.

How dare he eat at the boss's house!

Whatever you say, you have to go back.

They had good excuses and were anxious to find someone to design the drawings.

For a good comrade who likes to work so much, Lu Changhua would not be able to discourage him.

"Okay, Fourth Brother, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Don't worry, boss, I will take care of it."

When Zhao Laosi returned to the field, he found his partner, a technician from the farm infrastructure team.

When I showed the pictures to others, the technicians scratched their heads.

It’s not that he can’t design, it’s that he doesn’t have design qualifications.

"What qualifications are required? You don't need to build a house by yourself."

Zhao Laosi patted his chest and quickly drew a picture.

Generally speaking, for self-built houses in rural areas, it is good to have a floor plan.

There are basically no structural diagrams.

In order to do things beautifully this time, Zhao Laosi insisted that the technicians follow the formal procedures.

Because there are two layers, there are more than a dozen drawings.

I haven't finished the painting until the end of February.

Lu Changhua's phone number was called.

"Fourth, what's going on? Why is there no news yet?"

"Boss, the formal drawings are still a few days away. It's too late."

"Okay, I won't rush you."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Changhua and the old man and the old lady discussed returning to Beining.

Why?

The kids have started school.

So everyone started to pick up things.

We need to pack up what we need to use when we go back to Beining, and we also need to get rid of all the junk in the house.

Otherwise, if you go to Beining, you won’t have time to come back and pick it up.

As a result, the original activity room was filled with things.

Tables, chairs, benches, boxes and cabinets, bedding and clothes, and all kinds of bottles and cans.

Lu Changhua also went from house to house to take a look, and everything that could be used in the future was put into the warehouse.

Even the brooms and trash cans were taken away.

As for the uneaten New Year's goods, vegetables and meat, they are packed in boxes and ready to be taken back to Beining.

On the 28th, a Dongfeng truck came from the field department.

Load the cars with the things that each family needs to take back to Bac Ninh.

Lao Lu and Wang Dejiang and Lu Changhua each drove a car and pulled the person back to Beining with the truck.

Unload all the things and move them home from each household.

It was all up to Lu Changhua to move things. He didn't have the physical strength, so he called a few strong laborers outside the community and asked them to move things.

Everyone goes back to their homes and tidies up the house here first. They will have a day off tomorrow and school will start the day after tomorrow.

Lu Changhua brought everyone back to Beining.

Zhao Laosi got the call and arranged for someone to come and pick up the house that afternoon.

There is talk of demolishing a house.

First, remove the radiator at home and put it in the warehouse. This will be used later.

Doors and windows must be removed first.

Then there are the roof tiles.

No matter whether these tiles are new or old, they must be removed and put away.

Then there is the beam of the house.

These can be removed and reused.

So I have to keep it.

After the roof is removed, the walls are to be removed.

Bungalows in Northeast China are basically red brick houses.

A partition wall can be made behind this red brick.

So it works too.

Because the construction costs of these houses were paid by the Lu family, the bricks and tiles were all used together.

To demolish the house, Zhao Laosi directly found more than 30 laborers in the three-point field.

Instruct them how to dismantle it.

But as everyone imagined, it was simply pushed away with a bulldozer.

Many things still need to be used and cannot be damaged.
