Rebirth begins with marrying a female educated youth

Chapter 40 Uncle’s Construction Team

"I'm your uncle!"

The production team leader said with a grin.

He is the cousin of Ji Yuanhai's mother, also known as the "uncle brother", so he is regarded as the "eldest brother" of Ji Yuanhai's mother, so he calls himself "uncle".

Ji Yuanhai then changed his mind and agreed: "Uncle, are you out for work?"

"Well, we're going to work now. Have you eaten? If not, go to my house to eat." The "uncle" said.

"I ate it, uncle." Ji Yuanhai replied.

"Are you coming to grandma's house? Your grandpa and grandma are also working today...can I call them for you?" "Uncle" said again.

"No need, I'm not visiting grandma's house today, I'm looking for someone to build a house." Ji Yuanhai said, "Uncle, do you know who is reliable in the village?"

"Uncle" was delighted when he heard this: "Are you looking for someone to build a house? How big are you going to build it?"

"Build two rooms, let's make do with them first." Ji Yuanhai said, "Uncle, what are you—"

"I'll help you find two people, and the three of us can help you build the house." "Uncle" said, "Do you think it's okay?"

Ji Yuanhai frowned a little: "Uncle, we are related by relatives..."

"Uncle" said quickly: "Don't think about that now. If you really let me do this job, then you will be the master, and I will do the work for you."

"Is it possible not to talk about anything else while working?"

Ji Yuanhai is still reluctant.

If it weren't for the fact that the brick kiln in Chenlou Village was the closest and there were many people who knew how to build houses, he would even want to go to another commune and find people to work thirty miles away - but that would be too far, and the workers would come and go. Time is a big issue.

Ji Yuanhai didn't know what kind of character this "uncle" was like, or whether he was on the same page as his grandma's family and his mother.

Don't come up with other tricks then.

Seeing that he still refused to agree, the "uncle" couldn't help but feel a little anxious: "You kid, what are you afraid of? Can I still harm you?

"I'm not bragging. Go to the village and ask around. How many other people are building houses as good as mine?"

"If you ask around and you still feel that my skills are not good and I have a bad reputation, then I deserve it - okay?"

Such a loud tone? So, this "uncle" Chenlou Village is one of the best in building houses?

Ji Yuanhai was a little tempted: "Uncle, what is your name?"

"My name is Chen Liangxian, my eldest nephew. What is your name?"

"Uncle, my name is Ji Yuanhai."

This thing seems a bit outrageous. The two have even talked about being relatives, and only now do they know their names; but that's how it is originally. A cousin from the mother's side can just be called uncle, and usually they don't ask for their names.

Ji Yuanhai said: "Uncle, if you really want to do this job, I will inquire first; you are really good at your job, so I will look for you."

"One more thing, you have to help me with the work, that is, carry the work. I will pay you on time without any ambiguity."

"Don't talk about things like my grandpa, my mother, or you are my uncle. The master is me, and it has nothing to do with others."

"Uncle" Chen Liang heard the words first and was a little surprised at first, then nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, just ask around."

"See if I, Chen Liangxian, can stand my ground and be honest and reliable."

"When I took over your job, I only listened to you, the master, and no one else."

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Okay, please wait for a while, I will take a look around the village."

"OK!"

Chen Liang first ran to say hello to the production team leader, saying he was entertaining relatives, and then waited at the door of his house.

Ji Yuanhai walked around Chenlou Village and asked a few people. Chen Liangxian's confidence was indeed not in vain. They all said that he was quick at work and honest and reliable.

This "uncle" can do it!

By the way, I asked about the reputation of my grandfather Chen Laowu and my brother-in-law Chen Xiaobao.

Chen Laowu worked hard and felt sorry for his son, and was reluctant to let him work in the fields.

Chen Xiaobao is just talking about it with a smile. He relies entirely on his two sisters and parents to support himself. He has never worked in the fields. Every once in a while, Chen Xiaobao mows the grass, which counts as one work point. Chen Laowu and his wife are very proud.

This is similar to what Ji Yuanhai knows.

After finding Chen Liangxian again, Ji Yuanhai once again emphasized his intention not to let others intervene.

"Uncle, this is a separate house. I can build it and live in it myself."

"Don't talk about outsiders, even my parents can't control how I build this house."

Chen Liang nodded first: "I have written this down. Yuan Hai, you are the master. I just listen to you."

"I also have to tell you something."

"Uncle, tell me." Ji Yuanhai said.

"The three of us who work are working to earn some extra money instead of working hard to make money." Chen Liangxian said, "But we can't say this to the outside world."

"It must be said that I do the work for my nephew and I don't charge any money."

After hearing this, Ji Yuanhai recalled what Uncle Seven once said, that the labor force of the production team went out to make money and needed to give a share to the collective, and he suddenly understood.

"Uncle" also has some ideas in his mind, and is not just working hard.

If someone makes trouble with the Chenlou Village Brigade, it must be "free help" rather than "making money".

Because of this incident, Ji Yuanhai let go of his last worry.

"Uncle" also wants to ask for help from Ji Yuanhai, so he doesn't have to worry about problems with his work.

"Okay, uncle, let's make an agreement then!"

Ji Yuanhai said: "No matter who asks outsiders, you will be the one to help with the work, and I will take care of your food and drink."

Chen Liangxian also smiled: "Yes, no matter what others say, I will listen to you when I work, and I will only take the money from you."

After the two decided, Ji Yuanhai and Chen Liangxian returned to Xiaoshantun and took a look at the place where the house was built in the south of the village.

Chen Liang first estimated the approximate number of bricks, the amount of plaster and sand, and the approximate working time.

To be honest, summer is not a good time to build a house. Sometimes it is too hot and sometimes it rains heavily.

However, Chen Liangxian is considered an expert in building houses. He explains everything clearly and arranges it in place, so he is not afraid of this.

Just as Ji Yuanhai estimated, only two red brick houses were built. The total budget for materials and labor did not exceed 300 yuan, and there was even 70 yuan left.

However, considering that Chen Liangxian, a three-person construction team, has to take care of lunch and spend a little more on other things, the seventy yuan will still cost about thirty yuan.

After making an appointment with Chen Liangxian to start laying the foundation tomorrow, he sent Chen Liangxian away.

When Ji Yuanhai came back from the village, he passed by the team headquarters. Wang Laoer, who was walking well, was talking to two brothers, Wang Laosan and Wang Laosan, standing in front of the team headquarters.

Seeing Ji Yuanhai coming over, Wang Laoer's expression darkened and he turned aside.

Wang Laosan actually smiled: "Ji Yuanhai, I have a letter from you!"

Ji Yuanhai was surprised: "My letter?"

"Yes, there is your letter..." Wang Laosan pushed up his glasses, "Do you want me to read it to you?"

"Or take it home and let your wife read it to you?"
