Chapter 243 They are willing too!
The loudest and most enthusiastic ones are the men who are out!
They know the benefits of having a knife best and want it most, and they are not afraid of work.
These men were the most powerful men from each household in the village previously selected, and the old village chief also liked them.
He picked out a group of them and took care of every family except Fan Qian and Zhang Tuzi. There were thirty people in each family.
The old village chief looked at these men with dark eyes and powerful faces, and said, "Fan Qian and Zhang Baldzi's families don't have many walls. I'm afraid you guys can't do this work alone;
It just so happens that the front and back doors haven't been built yet, so I'll leave it to you to find the wood, cut down the trees, and transport it to make it. How about that? "
What's wrong with men?
Not to mention this small amount of work, they are also willing to double it on this basis!
Men, who doesn’t love swords, guns and sticks?
If you had to buy those big knives by yourself, you might not be able to buy them until you are old.
"Okay! Don't worry, old village chief, the safekeeping will be completed well and quickly!"
The old village chief was very relieved. He solved the two doors at the back of the gate that had been pending before. His heart dropped and he said: "The remaining twenty will be won by the house that builds them first.
Fan Qian and Zhang Tuzi couldn't separate the two families, so they are not included here. "
There are only twenty, so it is impossible for every household to have one.
The crowd that was still watching the excitement dispersed with a bang!
They have to build the wall of their house quickly and try to get one of the remaining twenty.
They have discovered that cheating and cheating are the most useless, but hard work will pay off!
This reward is not based on luck, but on Fan Jinshuiqing and the old village chief. If you follow them, you will be rewarded and you will not suffer any losses.
The crowd dispersed quickly, leaving only the sparse Fan Qian family and Zhang Chunhua.
Fan Qian and Sun Jinhua's face was so dark that it was almost dripping with tears. She was upset that she had not received any benefits, and she also resented her brother and his wife for not helping her family.
Fan Erzhu's intestines almost turned green!
He originally had one of those big knives, but they were gone, and I'm afraid he will never get them again.
The old village chief must have done it on purpose. No wonder he is so easy to talk to!
And Grandma, he shouldn't listen to Grandma. If he didn't make a fuss, the old village chief would give him a share anyway.
What is this!
Fan's three pillars and four pillars are okay, but I'm a little disappointed at the thought of not being able to carry a machete around with a majestic look.
There are other places that have them, but it doesn’t look good if you don’t have them in your own place.
As for Zhang Baldy’s family, there is none. Can Zhang Baldy compare with their family? Their family had lived in a brick house for a long time, and their ancestors had been wealthy, but the bald man still lived in a thatched house and was the poorest and laziest in the whole village!
Zhang Chunhua doesn't care too much about knives, she doesn't like them anyway.
But considering that all men like knives, my father, brother and Hu Wenhua must all like them.
If she got it and gave it to Hu Wenhua, would Hu Wenhua be extremely moved?
No, no, these dozens of big knives were originally given by his sister, he must have them!
Her father would definitely not be happy if he knew he had no family. If he was unhappy, he would scold her and hit her. If Hu Wenhua gave him a handful as a gift to his father, his father would definitely be very happy...
The progress of Shanshui Village increased significantly, and the selected men went to the mountains to find trees first.
The one at the back door is okay, it doesn’t require a tree that’s too thick, it’s easy to find and cut down, and it’s easy to transport once it’s cut.
The front door needs thick wood. The trees close to their village are all miscellaneous trees. Most of them are as thick as a bowl and burned as firewood. If you want to find one as thick as your waist, you need to look farther away.
Shui Qing was not idle here either, and was even busier.
Everyone has work to do. Although the men who transported potatoes are back, they are not free because they have to build the houses they live in. In fact, they are even busier.
The wall of the Ding family is expected to be built in two days, which means that Li Dani, Ernie and five people can participate in it in two days.
Fortunately, they had used the mid-air barrier to dig the drainage ditches and cut down the trees for wooden beams.
Hong Daniu and other men decided to build four sets of houses together after discussion, instead of each building his own.
After all, some people have more people and some have less people. For example, several people need to work together to build beams. There are also many trivial things. The more people are spread out, the more complicated the work will be and the slower it will be.
Of the last eighteen men, the eight older ones were responsible for digging and laying the foundation, and the other ten worked in pairs to lay the adobe.
One group can dig 700 to 800 adobe bricks a day, and five groups can dig nearly 4,000 adobe bricks.
Adobe is not bigger than bricks. Each piece of adobe is larger than bricks. It can be worth several or even dozens of bricks, and it can be piled up much faster than bricks.
If all the materials are prepared and twenty or thirty people start at the same time, a three-room adobe house can be built in two or three days.
Hong Mancang, Hong Manku, and the rest of the group worked hard and worked hard.
After the five women Li Dani, Erni and others joined in, the men took time to go out and transport back the gray tiles.
In less than twenty days, four new adobe and tile houses were built.
When moving, we didn't pay much attention to the auspicious days of the zodiac. We simply picked a good pair of days. Hong Daniu and others got up early in the morning and worked hard to move in.
The other three families all had wives who had tidied up their homes early. Only Hong Daniu had two sons with a full warehouse.
Fortunately, the three of them didn't have to choose. They could eat whatever was available, as long as they were full.
The three of them can also simply cook batter and make steamed buns, and they can even take care of the vegetable garden, so life is no problem.
Shui Qing also got up early in the morning and discussed with Fan Jin how to distribute food to four families.
"If you give me too much rice, it will be conspicuous, but whole grains such as millets and beans in the mall are much more expensive than rice and white flour. If you spend expensive money and eat poor food, you will lose money no matter how much you think."
But it’s not enough to give them all rice, they have to give less.
Fan Jin's gentle face was also full of confusion.
He has never understood the mall. Why are millet, bracts, and even black-flour beans more expensive than rice, white flour, and other refined grains?
Especially beans, the price per kilogram is not even half a cent, but it is several times more expensive.
"Didn't many people in the village trade wheat flour with us for potato seeds? Let's buy more wheat flour. It's just that the previous villagers came to exchange for potato seeds. We can't finish the excess."
Shui Qing said that the corn noodles sold in the village are considered "organic" in shopping malls. If you buy them for free, they cost more than 10 yuan per catty. If they are not organic, they only cost 2 yuan more per catty, which is a bit more expensive than white noodles. But at least the difference is not too big.
Baogu noodles are also much more delicious than black noodles.
"The rice and white flour were stocked up before. They ate a lot of them the first year they came here to maintain their health. They also added some potato, millet, and corn noodles. The combination shouldn't be too eye-catching."
Shui Qing sighed, "That's all it can do."
Others are worried that the rice will not have enough white flour and it will not look good. They are worried that the rice will have too much white flour and will be too conspicuous.
The two of them carefully decided on the amount of food for each household and entered the warehouse.
