A layman in the courtyard

Chapter 33 Jia Dongxu

"Come on, Master Zhang, look, my house is divided into two parts. I want to build a wall to surround the open space in the middle and make a patio. Do you think it's easy?"

Master Zhang looked at it, measured it, and then asked:
"Are you going to build a wall and then open a door for entry and exit from the side of the east wing? Or are you going to open a door for entry and exit from this wall?"

"If possible, I would like to build a wall to surround the inverted room and this open space, and open a door from the east wing where I live now."

"In this case, all my houses can only be entered and exited through the door of the east wing. This way, no one will come in and out randomly, which makes management easier."

After Master Zhang understood what Cao Zhihua meant, he said it was not difficult.
"No problem, this is easy to solve."

Cao Zhihua took Master Zhang and continued walking towards the wall.

"Master Zhang, look at it. I want to include the penthouse. The penthouse can be built along the wall, and a room can be built as a toilet and bathroom, and tap water can be brought in."

"Cao Zhihua, you want to make a toilet and bathroom. The open space in the middle is enough. If you modify the wing room, it can be used as a good bedroom. And I just calculated that your position is against the wall. There is no problem in digging the sewer pipe from here. "

Cao Zhihua thought for a while
"Then please Master Zhang, please turn the back-seat room and the wing room into bedrooms and build a fire pit. Then open a large window in both houses. It is best to open the window directly to the floor. The window in the back-seat room is not big and it is not easy to live in. .”

The pen in Master Zhang's hand has been recording. After listening to Cao Zhihua's thoughts, he thought about it.
"There's no problem with any of this. It's just that you want to use the remaining space as a patio, right?"

"Yes, Master Zhang."

"Then you need to consider the issue of drainage in your patio, otherwise it will flood when it rains, so you need to put a drainage pipe and the toilet into the sewer."

"Yeah, okay, lay a sewer."

"Zhihua, do you want to make a rain shelter for this patio?"

Cao Zhihua thought for a moment, and if a rain shelter was made, the entire sitting room, toilet and bathroom would probably be without light.then:
"Master Zhang, we won't build the awning. If we build the patio and the living room, there will be no light in this area."

Master Zhang thought for a while,

"Okay, the dormitory, the toilet, and the bathroom all have cement floors and the walls are painted white, right?"

Cao Zhihua did what was convenient and had no intention of conforming to the standards of future generations.

"Yes, just follow this. There are also tables, chairs, and stools in the house. Master Zhang will prepare them for me. Build me a sink in the bathroom that is connected to the running water. Is there any problem?"

"Okay, all of this is fine. Do you plan to contract the work or materials?"

"Let's contract the work and materials, Master Zhang. You can quote us a price. If it's suitable, we'll start construction in April."

Master Zhang Dezhu grinned when he saw Cao Zhihua's cheerful words.

"Okay, Zhihua, we have been neighbors for so many years. I definitely can't make money from you. I will come to you for a quote after I calculate the cost of materials and labor."

Cao Zhihua nodded after hearing this and didn't take it seriously. As long as the matter could be done well, it only cost a few hundred yuan. For a boss with more than 9 yuan in his pocket, this was no big deal.

"Okay, Master Zhang, I will follow what you said, but once the construction starts, the construction period must be fast, otherwise it will affect the neighbors for too long, and I will not be able to explain it easily."

"Okay, your project is not big, so digging sewers is a bit troublesome. It is initially estimated that it can be completed in 10 days."

Cao Zhihua was quite satisfied after hearing this, but he still continued to exert pressure.

"Master Zhang, you can consider adding a few more people and shorten the construction period."

"In this case, the cost will be much higher."

"It's okay, just buy more. I've spent a lot of money, so I don't care about the small amount. I'm mainly afraid that it will be troublesome when the neighbors complain."

Master Zhang smiled and said,

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want. It'll be as fast as possible."

"Okay, that's it. Let's have a cup of tea, Master Zhang."

"No more, no more, I still have some unfinished business at home, so I have to go back and catch up on work."

Cao Zhihua said politely

"Okay, I won't keep Master Zhang today. You go back to work first. I'll wait for your quotation here."

Master Zhang said happily:
"Okay, I will report back as soon as possible. Zhihua, that's it for today, I'll leave first."

"Okay, Master Zhang, you go back and do your work first. I'll just wait for your news."

After seeing Master Zhang off, Cao Zhihua entered the room and saw the three little ones writing calligraphy on the desk. He walked over and asked, "You guys are starting school tomorrow. Are you ready with everything you need to prepare?"

The third child was very happy to see his eldest brother coming back so early. Xiaoyu came directly over to hug his eldest brother.

"Everything is ready, brother, why are you back so early today?"

"I asked for leave in the afternoon to run some errands, and I have to go back to the factory to punch in my get off work card later."

Xiaoyu hugged Cao Zhihua's waist, raised her head curiously, and said cutely

"Oh, brother, what are you doing?"

Cao Zhihua touched Xiaoyu's hair and said, "Brother went to find Master Zhang Dezhu just now and planned to repair the two houses next to us. Then we will build a toilet at home, so that we don't have to go to the public toilet in the future."

Xiaoyu hugged Cao Zhihua in surprise and jumped up and said:

"Brother, is this true? That's great. Xiaoyu no longer has to queue up to go to the toilet. I'm so happy."

Cao Zhihua smiled happily when he saw the three little ones so happy. He felt that his efforts were not in vain and his family would be happy.

"Yes, but not so fast. The weather is too cold now and the mud on the ground cannot be dug. Construction can't start until April."

Xiaoyu was a little disappointed and counted the days on her fingers. She couldn't figure it out clearly, so she simply said in confusion.

"Brother, will it take a long time?"

Cao Zhihua glared at Xiaoyu angrily,
"It won't take long, just two months. After so many years, can't you wait for this little time?"

The third child was a little angry when he saw his elder brother. Why should he be honest?

"Brother, we've been waiting for this."

Cao Zhihua nodded,

"Okay, you play at home and prepare the things you need to prepare for school tomorrow. I will send you to school tomorrow."

"Okay, big brother."

Cao Zhihua walked out of the door and slowly walked to the steel rolling mill to check in.

The current situation is becoming more and more like the plot.

Silly Zhu will soon be upgraded to help the kitchen.

Xu Damao has two years left to graduate from high school and will also join the steel rolling mill as a projectionist apprentice.

Qin Huairu will marry into a courtyard house in three months.

Jia Dongxu has become Yi Zhonghai's master and now works as an intern in a steel rolling mill.

It is said that Cao Zhihua feels quite good about Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu's height of 172cm is considered tall nowadays, he is square and square, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is a bit handsome.People, honest.

He is also polite to others, and he always wants to be obedient. In the factory, Yizhonghai does whatever he says, and at home, Mr. Jia Zhang does whatever he says.

He doesn't have that much to worry about. He's like an invisible person in the yard and doesn't talk much.

If you are not an honest person, you will not be favored by Yi Zhonghai.

Like many novels, Jia Dongxu is just a wolf with blank eyes.

Doesn't that mean that Yi Zhonghai, the big boss in the courtyard, is just a charlatan? Instead of training a fool like Silly Zhu who loves to fool, he rushes to train a white-eyed wolf?

At this point in time, Yi Zhonghai is still very good, but even Silly Zhu, who is alone with a girl, is just a spare tire. You know how Yi Zhonghai is optimistic about Jia Dongxu.
