Chapter 239: It’s business to seize the time to make money

When Huang Biao heard that Jingli called him over, he suddenly lost his sleepiness and quickly stood up and said: "Go, load those bluestone slabs on several trucks for me, and take them to Beishui Village with me in the afternoon!"

When Huang Biao entered the village with several large carts of slates, the villagers were still rushing to build shacks in the dark.

The eldest son of Uncle He's family said: "This village is really awesome. People come here with gifts every day! I don't know where so much money comes from!"

The man next to him said: "Don't even look at it. The paper mill and the wine shop are all jobs that can win the golden eggs in the world. What's more, there is a capable man like Wan Zhangshi who runs outside every day. How can he have no money?" ?"

Uncle He looked at the figures of Huang Biao and others and said: "Boss, our house can be built just fine, there is no need to go to all the trouble to build it!"

His eldest daughter-in-law said in confusion: "Dad, we are going to settle here. Haven't you heard that he dares to kill Liao and has several relatives who are generals? We can't go wrong by settling down here!"

Uncle He glared at his eldest daughter-in-law: "I am already old, and I still need you to teach me?"

"According to this trend, the other side is getting better and better. Let's just build a house and go to the other side to make money when we have time. Why not build a brick house when we have money? We must like living in stilts!"

His son was shocked: "Dad, why are you so worried? We still rely on the other side to work. People are considerate and pay a cent every three days, so that we can eat. Why do you think about the beauty of a brick house?" Already?"

The man who was listening to the excitement next door also muttered in his heart: "No, if it weren't for the need for people to build houses, let alone eating, the bark of the trees would probably be chewed up!"

Uncle He looked at his son with disgust: "Confused! We were able to sleep in haystacks along the way, so what can't we do now?"

"The house at the other end will be built until October. It is designated to be completed before winter."

"You are not busy making money at this time, but you are busy with your own home. When the other end is finished, how will you make money?"

"Don't tell me that they still have a paper mill and a wine shop. Didn't you see that everyone was squeezing their heads in and squeezing in? Besides, there are people from Beishan Village. They are locals. How can you compete with them?"
"Behave while there is work to do here. When things are free, maybe you can work in the paper mill and wine shop!"

"I've done the math. You and your mother, two boys, and your brothers are working hard. If you don't have time off this month, you still have three or four taels of silver in your savings. You can work for a few more months." Then we can’t build a brick house!”

The man next door listened carefully for a while and realized that ginger is still hotter!

Why didn't I think of it? All I had to do was build the shack before it snowed. During the rest of the time, I'd better seize the time to make money.

If, as Uncle He said, when the house at the other end is finished and you have money, why bother building a shack? Wouldn't it be better to build a brick house in one go?
Within two days, the shack builders were no longer in a hurry, leaving the elderly and women with limited mobility behind while others swarmed over to make money.

This is something to say later. When Huang Biao arrived at the Jing family compound, Wan Baoquan greeted him: "Brother Huang, haven't you eaten yet? Come on, I've prepared everything for you!"

Huang Biao directed the boys to pull the bluestone to the construction site, where Dalang and others came to greet him, and he followed Wan Baoquan to the meeting hall.

From a distance, I saw Jing Li, Mrs. Ge and others, chatting with an old lady. The old lady looked familiar.

When Huang Biao took two steps forward and took a look, the tough and brave man burst into tears. He grinned and tried very hard to hold back a cry: "Mother! I'm my mother? Is it you?"

Old Mrs. Huang was talking to Mrs. Ge and the others. When she heard someone calling her, her mind suddenly buzzed, and her son, who had been thinking about her so much, was right in front of her. The old lady did not dare to step forward, for fear that this would be another scene. Dream.

The eldest granddaughter on the side choked with tears: "Miscellaneous, that's the second uncle!"

Old Mrs. Huang stepped forward and hugged her son, and burst into tears: "You are a murderer of my mother's life! You have made your mother suffer to death!" Huang Biao knelt in front of his mother and hugged her with both hands. Legs, the big man cried like a child: "Mother! Mother! My son is unfilial and makes you sad. Please hit me!"

His niece led her brother over and said timidly: "Second uncle!"

Huang Biao helped his mother up, touched his niece's head, and hugged his nephew into his arms. The mother and son cried together, reluctant to let go for a long time, for fear that if they let go, no one would be seen again in the blink of an eye.

Mrs. Ge stepped forward and advised: "Let me eat first. We are in such a hurry on our journey. Didn't we have a good meal all the way here?"

Jingli brought out the rice: "Brother Huang, come and eat some with the old lady!"

Huang Biao let go of his nephew, wiped his tears, knelt down towards Jingli and kowtowed, which shocked Jingli.

"Brother Huang, what are you doing?"

Huang Biao said with a tearful tone: "Girl, I am lucky to know you. You actually found a family for me. I, Huang Biao, have to go up mountains of swords and seas of fire in my life, but I will never be able to repay this kindness to you!"

Mrs. Ge pulled Huang Biao up: "Stop talking about that, why is a man crying?"

"You thought we were just looking for your family alone. All the relatives in our village were looking for us, but your mother and the others were lucky and they happened to be found!"

Jing Li nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Huang, our relatives are all looking for it, but the old lady and the others are lucky enough to be close enough to find her!"

Mrs. Huang wiped her tears and said, "Sister, girl, you are all good people. It is a great blessing for my Biaozi to meet you!"

"Zhen'er, Huzi, come! Kowtow to the girl and the old lady!"

Huang Zhen'er and Huang Huzi were about to kowtow. Seeing that this girl was as old as themselves, Jing Li couldn't bear it anymore, so she pretended to be angry and said: "Brother Huang, old lady, if you keep doing this, I'm going to be really angry!" "

Huang Biao then took his niece and nephew to sit down and couldn't help but ask the old lady: "Mom, how did you get out?"

Old Mrs. Huang couldn't help but burst into tears and said, "After you had people arrest you, the family kept coming for trouble, and there was a locust plague, and there was no harvest in the fields."

"There is no other way, I will take your two nephews out to beg for food!"

"I heard someone said that you were exiled to Dangshi Mountain, so I looked for people everywhere and searched all the way here."

"I kept going like this for more than half a year, and then I was found by Chief Wan in Jinzhong County."

What Mrs. Huang didn't say was that when Wanbaoquan found them, the three of them were already so hungry that they were almost exhausted. If it were two days later, they would really starve to death.

At first, Mrs. Huang couldn't believe it when she said he was Huang Biao's brother. She had encountered too many nasty things along the way.

Wan Baoquan was not angry at all. He bought them food and told some things about Huang Biao. Only then did the old lady believe that he was really her son's friend.

The family was reunited, and Mrs. Ge couldn't help but shed tears. She still had two daughters who didn't know whether they were alive or dead!
I don’t know if I am so lucky that I will be able to see my two daughters alive in this life.
