Life in a quiet village in Xianshan

Entering Yang Chuanwu's house, Gu Siwei was immediately happy when he saw that a group of elderly people from the village were there.

"What a coincidence, I was just trying to discuss something with everyone here, but I didn't expect that everyone was here," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

"Siwei, sit down and try the potatoes from our cellar."

This group of people were warming themselves around the brazier in the hall and roasting potatoes. Seeing Gu Siwei coming over, Guo Xiangping immediately picked up the small fire stick leaning on the leg of the stool, poked it a few times on the edge of the fire pot, and pulled out a roasted potato from the ashes without sparks. , handed it to Gu Siwei.

When Gu Siwei saw it, he immediately took it. It turned out that the thing was quite hot, so he tossed it twice in his hand, and finally caught the potato with the corner of his clothes.

He directly found a bench and sat down, and Gu Siwei began to peel the potato.

"What are you all talking about together?"

Gu Siwei took a bite of potato and it tasted pretty good.

At this time, the potatoes are all white cored. There are no sweet potatoes or purple potatoes at the back. They are all ordinary potatoes. The roasted taste is average. The main reason is that the sweetness is not enough and it is a bit stiff in the mouth after eating it, so Gu Siwei I don’t usually eat much, but when I first came here, I thought the roasted potatoes were really delicious.

"How should the income from the computer room in Liaocun be divided?" Yang Chuanwu said.

Gu Siwei stopped talking after hearing this. He was thinking about how much money the machine room could charge.

When Yang Chuanwu heard this, he smiled and said, "Guess how much money the computer room has earned these days?"

Gu Siwei said casually: "Three hundred yuan?"

Yang Chuanwu said: "That's not that much. How much does a piece of rice cost?"

Gu Siwei smiled and thought to himself: "You don't even have three hundred yuan, how can you say you earn a lot?"

But then I thought about it, for Yang Chuanwu, the leader of Zhuangzi, that was naturally a lot. You must know that Zhuangzi’s collective income before was nothing.

Looking at it this way, our financial performance this year is a record-breaking growth.

"Calculating this, if it is for the whole year, our Zhuangzi's income from the machine room alone will be more than 600 yuan..."

As soon as he heard this number, Gu Siwei lost even more interest. One year, he paid more than 600 yuan. Forget it, it was not easy for Yang Chuanwu. Look, more than 600 yuan made him so excited that he had to recruit a bunch of dealers. Talkers from every family and surname came out to talk.

"Oh, by the way, Siwei, have you seen Liu Dezhu?"

"I saw it. I greeted them both just now," Gu Siwei replied.

"Then you know that this guy wants to transfer his household registration to Zhou Lanbing's village, right?" Guo Xiangping said.

Gu Siwei was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses: "This matter has nothing to do with me, right? What did Uncle Liu say?"

Sun Shikun said at this time: "Liu Fulin was probably almost mad at his grandson. The grandson he had raised for half his life was finally snatched away by a wolf."

"Who says it's not the case? Now some people say that Liu Dezhu should change his name so that he can't keep him."

Another old man also said.

Another person said: "You don't know, look at that woman, she said she found a paid job at home, which makes more than ten yuan a month."

At this point, he said to Gu Siwei: "I'm going to refute your words both inside and outside."

"Let her do it." Gu Siwei smiled and looked like I didn't care.

Gu Siwei understood that Zhou Lanbing wanted to prove that Liu Dezhu was living a good life relying on his own family, but it is your own good, so when you are good, can you not step on me!

There is no one on Zhou Lanbing's side that he can pull over. If he wants to pull over, he has to pull over Gu Siwei. Otherwise, how can he prove that the Liu family's help from Gu Siwei in the past was not as much as that from her Zhou family.

"These gangs come and go to help each other, but who knew they would become enemies!"

Guo Xiangping said with emotion.

"It's not a matter of enmity. It's just a matter of not having any contact with each other in the future. Why bother causing such a thing?"

Gu Siwei thought for a while and felt that it was too boring, so he didn't want to deal with it anymore.

Gu Siwei wanted to deal with Zhou Lanbing, not only looking at the monks but also the Buddha. After all, Liu Fulin and Liu Dezhu had helped him and carried him back from the mountains. To attack Zhou Lanbing, Gu Siwei couldn't do it.

He can be cruel to others, but he doesn't want to do anything to the people around him unless he has to.

"Don't talk about this boring thing. By the way, Siwei, why did you come here to find me?"

Yang Chuanwu also felt that this matter was quite boring. As for what Zhou Lanbing said about the Zhou family's ability, do you think who in the entire Zhuangzi believed her? Everyone took it as a joke.

More capable than Gu Siwei? Gu Siwei's family got Zhao Fangming to work in the factory as an errand, and now I heard that he will start working officially soon. If your family can really do it, you can find a regular worker for Liu Dezhu and give the Liu family a few acres of land.

He is obviously a clown, but he has to pretend to be a human being, so why not just show it up and make others laugh at him?

Gu Siwei said: "What can happen? Isn't it just whether I can get on the beam tomorrow?"

"The snow will not stop tomorrow, look at the sky outside," Yang Chuanwu said.

At this time Guo Xiangping intervened: "Tomorrow is an auspicious day. If we push this, it will be half a month later. I think the light snow will not affect it. It will be fine tomorrow. Everyone is eager to have fun. Just follow everyone’s wishes.”

Yang Chuanwu smiled and said, "Is this just for fun?"

Gu Siwei said: "Otherwise, why else would I do this?"

At this time, Sun Shikun asked: "Siwei, I would like to ask, how much did it cost to build your house?"

"This, apart from wood and labor, is nothing, right? The materials are all from the mountains, just labor. I don't know the details. Who cares about this? Do you also want to build a house?"

As Gu Siwei spoke, he understood what Sun Shikun meant. It seemed that the old man wanted to build a house.

Sun Shikun nodded: "I want to build one. My grandson is not young anymore. He is about to get married. How can we start a family without a family? I originally wanted to build an adobe house, but now everyone is saying that you The big wooden house is very good, better than the adobe house. The adobe house is afraid of rain. When it rains, the root of the wall will be soaked with water. As time goes by, the root of the wall will not become loose..."

Sun Shikun said that the adobe house is not good, but the good thing is that it is warm in winter and cool in summer. Because the wall is thick, up to 56 centimeters, and there is a thick layer of grass on the top, the insulation is better than that of ordinary brick walls. It's much better, but the shortcomings are also obvious, including the fear of water soaking into the corners, and the fact that it's too dark inside, not to mention the glass windows. Who can afford to install that thing nowadays, that is, Gu Siwei does this.

"That's right. It's just that the material is easy to find, but it's not a job. Where can I find a carpenter?"

An old man said.

There are trees all over the mountain, so materials are naturally easy to find. If nothing else, which house doesn’t have a few good beam trees in front of and behind the house? The day they were planted, they were thinking of using them as beam materials when their children and grandchildren build their houses. These are all Good wood.

But it’s not enough to just have wood. It also has to be processed. If you want to turn a piece of wood into material, it will take a lot of work.

What, it’s easy to do it mechanically?

Bird!

When was this? At this time, Gu Siwei got a few chain saws and was like sneaking around without letting anyone know where the machinery came from. Didn’t you see that the surface machine is a treasure? The state only owns the processing machines, even new ones. There are no lumber yards, so all you need to cut down trees is an axe.

"Isn't there a lumberyard over there? I heard that the wood will be easily processed soon."

When Gu Siwei heard someone say this, he immediately looked at him.

"What machine?" Yang Chuanwu said.

"I heard that the trees are turned into wooden boards, and a new factory is going to be built next to Qiaotou Temple."

"Even if it is processed and transported back from Qiaotou Temple? You are really crazy. There are hundreds of aniseeds. The labor alone is scary."

Another old man did some calculations and showed that it was not cost-effective.

Gu Siwei was confused when he heard the name Qiaotou Temple. He didn't know where this place was, but he didn't care. It was his turn to make irresponsible remarks about the lumber yard.

How dare you think about using the machines in the country's playground with these people?

"You really dare to think!"

Guo Xiangping said what Gu Siwei was thinking: "That's a national thing. What does it have to do with you? Do you think you can use it if you want? Just think of an honest way and find someone to chop it down with an axe." An ax is an ax's work, don't think about those comfortable things."

This matter went off topic again and again. It was originally about Sun Shikun's family planning to build a house, but ended up in the logging field.

Looking further up, it is not that Sun Shikun's family is building a house, but that Gu Siwei's new house is building beams. Look where these words have gone.

"Let's talk about business, talk about business, and go astray again."

Everyone laughed.

"What did you say?"

Gu Siwei said: "My family won't be able to go to the Liang Dynasty tomorrow, what else can I do?"

Yang Chuanwu looked around: "How about this? If the snow is not heavy tomorrow, will we go up the beam?"

"What is big and what is small?"

"Things like today are considered small," Yang Chuanwu said.

Gu Siwei said: "It's better not to let the snow fall. There will be no knives in the sky tomorrow. Brother Shengshou and I will come here to pick everyone up."

"also!"

Yang Chuanwu said.

After the matter was settled, Gu Siwei stood up and prepared to go home.

"Don't go, there's still something else to do."

Gu Siwei said: "Is there anything else?"

"The village owes you gas money," Yang Chuanwu said.

"What's the rush? I don't need the money now. Let's just keep it in the village's account and give it to me when there is a surplus." Gu Siwei thought that he had just earned more money, so he had to pay it back. Money?

"You have to ask for it even if you don't want it. This is the rule." After Yang Chuanwu said this, he turned and returned to the room.

He took out a wad of money, counted it, and gave Gu Siwei a pen: "Make a receipt!"

When Gu Siwei saw it, he took it, so he took the money without counting it. Yang Chuanwu had counted it several times himself.

After writing an IOU to Yang Chuanwu, Gu Siwei wanted to leave again.

"Don't go"

"What's the matter?"

"Can I still buy this machine? How about adding two more?"

Gu Siwei was speechless and happy: "Do you still think that people are replacing machines every day, which means we are getting a bargain, otherwise where can we buy them?"

Yang Chuanwu listened and said with a smile: "That's right, I thought too much."

The business of the computer room was so good, and the price Gu Siwei paid for the machine was so low. Yang Chuanwu naturally thought that it should be bigger, but he never thought that Gu Siwei would not be happy. The computer room was just a cover for him. Now if you ask Zhang Zhan, where can he get such an old machine? It took him a long time to buy it in Hong Kong City.

You can’t just go to town to unload it!

Thinking of this, Gu Siwei suddenly felt itchy, but after thinking about it, he let it go, that piece of shit wasn't worth it.
