Happy National Day to everyone!
Chapter 51 Construction begins Envy Tao Zhu
Tao Zhu did not express the evil and smoking thoughts in his mind, but Li Qiao remembered his thoughtful look, so after Li Chuntao left, he asked him what he was thinking just now.
"I didn't think anything of it." Tao Zhu shook his head.
But how could Li Qiao let him go: "In front of me, you can say whatever you want. Be bold and be yourself."
"...But this will really make me look bad." Tao Zhu hesitated.
Li Qiao looked unbelieving: "Are you evil? How can you be evil?"
"...I, I think we can scare Sister-in-law Yan. She is forcing Brother Dazhong to work hard and make money. What if after Brother Dazhong makes money, other women or younger brothers fall in love with Brother Dazhong?"
Tao Zhu felt guilty.
Look at the sky and the earth, but not Li Qiao.
His idea was really bad, even vicious. It was too much for him to use this method to intimidate a person who had given birth to children for Li Dazhong.
If someone threatened him like this, he would have to fight that person desperately.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was inappropriate. Before Li Qiao could speak, he said again: "You forgot what I just said, I didn't say anything!"
"The me just now is not the real me!"
Li Qiao, don't think he is a vicious person...
Li Qiao was amused by his guilty and nervous look: "I thought it was some big deal, just like this?"
Tao Zhu opened his eyes wide. Isn't this vicious enough?
Li Qiao hugged him, leaned over and kissed his lips: "You just reasoned, if Brother Dazhong is really rich, there will definitely be flowers and plants taking the initiative to pounce on him."
His Brother Zhu is so kind, what does this mean?
"...Even if this is the case, it will happen in the future. Anyway, we can't scare Sister Yan with such words now."
Tao Zhu said.
"Okay, okay, if you don't scare her, we won't have time to talk to her." Li Qiao nodded.
Tao Zhu's thoughts are not evil, but he is the one who is really evil:
Used to it.
At this time, using these words to scare Han Xiaoyan was a wake-up call for Han Xiaoyan.
Knock whatever you want, don’t knock, just let nature take its course.
Han Xiaoyan doesn't want to live a stable life with Li Dazhong, but there are many people who want to live with Li Dazhong.
Li Qiao said he didn't pay attention to Han Xiaoyan, which means he really didn't pay attention. He was really busy.
Because the green dumplings stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss became popular in the county, it became popular on the first day.
Baiyou loved this taste so much that she bought a third of it at once. In addition, shopkeeper Wang left some for himself, so he only sold more than twenty egg yolk meat floss on the first day.
The maids and servants brought this flavor of Qingtuan back to their young ladies and brothers. Because it was a new product and expensive, these maids and servants did not dare to buy more on their own initiative, that is, one or two.
As a result, after their young lady and brother had tasted it, they were sent to Wangyuelou to buy it, but it was already gone.
If it’s gone on the first day, then wait until the next day.
But the next day Baiyou went to Wangyuelou in advance and bought a third of it. In addition, the maid and the boy who ran very fast bought ten or more pieces at a time, so there were even fewer people who tasted it the next day. .
The less these young ladies and guys who are not short of money can't taste it, the more they want to taste it.
The maids and servants are useless and cannot be snatched, so they will snatch it themselves.
Therefore, in the past few days, Xiao Wu came every day to ask Shopkeeper Wang to urge Li Qiao to make more green dumplings stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss.
To be honest, Shopkeeper Wang himself is not satisfied with it. His old mother, who had bad teeth, would hold one and chew it slowly every day, and she could eat one for most of the day.
Faced with the urging, Li Qiao remained unmoved.
It is only for the rich, so you have to engage in hunger marketing. If you can get it easily, neither the people nor the food will be cherished.
Furthermore, Li Qiao is really busy. Currently, only he and Tao Zhu know how to make meat floss. There is no breaking machine at this time, so they only rely on a manual meat grinder to make meat floss, which is too slow.
Making seventy or eighty pieces a day - leaving the extra for his own consumption is already his limit.
In addition to making snacks, there is also building a house.
The foreman has been found, a lot of bricks have been bought, and money is being earned every day, so it’s time to start construction on this house.
On a good day, Li Qiao asked Zhuang Fengshou to summon the whole village and announced that he and Tao Zhu were going to build a house.
Those who are willing to work at his house can earn thirty-five cents a day for ordinary workers, and thirty-five cents a day for skilled workers who can carry masonry tools and build walls.
No matter whether he is a small laborer who can only do tasks such as delivering bricks or lifting mud, or he is a skilled worker, he will receive a daily meal allowance of three cents.
Because Li Gu, the foreman, was illiterate, his wages were paid daily, and he could receive one day's wages for one day's work.
However, because Sanliu Village is a large village with more than 80 families, only one person from each family can build a house, otherwise it will be overcrowded.
After the news of Zhuang's harvest was announced, the whole village was excited. The long-awaited news finally came, and the construction of Li Qiao's house finally started!
Hurry up and sign up, don't miss it. Although only one person per family can go, it's still a huge sum of money.
Some people are happy, and some people are unhappy.
The one who was unhappy was naturally Li Dao. Li Dazhong actually refused to let him participate in such a good job. A skilled worker like him could earn thirty-five cents a day!
Not to mention that there is a foreman. If Li Dazhong is willing to be the foreman, what does Li Gu have to do with him?
However, Li Dao was not happy at all, so he did not dare to go to Li Qiao to make trouble.
First, because Li Gu, the second brother, can suppress him.
The second reason is because his unfilial son Li Dazhong speaks cruel words. He can curse at home no matter how much he does, but if he goes to Li Qiao to make trouble, he will really not be provided for his old age in the future.
Therefore, both Li Gu and Li Dazhong kept him under control. Even if he was unhappy at this time, he had to endure it.
Li Dao was not happy, and neither was Zhao Mancang's daughter-in-law Wang Hongqin.
Therefore, her family was the only one who did not receive preferential treatment from the families that lent her money to Li Qiao.
Of course, Li Dazhong's family did not receive preferential treatment, but that was because Li Dazhong did not want to commit suicide with Zhao Erniu, Han Xiaoyan and Li Dao.
But no one in her family is a demon.
Why did Li Qiao forget their home?
According to Wang Guihua's theory, it is actually their turn now, because the dealers have started to do small furniture business!
Wang Hongqin was unhappy and complained to Zhao Mancang with a face after returning. Who said Li Qiao repaid his kindness?
In fact, Zhao Mancang felt a little unhappy now. He was not threatening to repay a favor, but Li Qiao's behavior, which everyone except his family did, was really uncomfortable.
But at this time, facing Wang Hongqin's muttering, he put on a serious face: "Xiaoqiao has paid back the money a long time ago. Don't keep talking about the word grace all day long. What? Are you planning to rely on this to eat Xiaoqiao?" For a lifetime?”
"Why don't you say anything? Who wants to eat him for the rest of his life? He just forgot about our family now!"
Wang Hongqin retorted unhappily and her voice was a little loud.
At this moment, Li Qiao's voice came from outside: "Uncle Mancang, are you at home?"
"Yes." Zhao Mancang quickly replied, then glared at Wang Hongqin and told her to shut up.
Wang Hongqin didn't want to shut up, so Li Qiao took the initiative to come to the door. Humph, it saved her the trouble of looking for her.
She had to ask why Li Qiao had forgotten her home!
As a person with super powers, Li Qiao had sharp ears and eyes. He did not give Wang Hongqin a chance to question him. As soon as he saw Zhao Mancang, he explained his purpose:
He wanted to ask Wang Hongqin to make soup and water for the villagers who were building the house while his house was being built.
Although most of summer has passed, the temperature is still high. It is too hard to build a house in the high temperature without a place to shade.
Therefore, Li Qiao planned to make some sour plum soup and mung bean soup to quench the thirst and heat of the villagers.
In the summer, cooking around the stove is hard work, so the wages are forty-five cents a day.
He is responsible for all the ingredients and dry firewood, and Wang Hongqin only needs to cook at her house.
There are almost a hundred people building a house. Even if one person has one bowl, it will take at least four or five pots to satisfy.
Wang Hongqin would definitely be too busy on her own. She could ask her daughter-in-law to help, and the wages would also be 45 cents per person.
Wang Hongqin's cooking work is another matter. If other people in Zhao Mancang's family want to build a house, they can go, no matter how many people they have.
As soon as these words came out, most of Wang Hongqin's dissatisfaction disappeared immediately.
Forty-five cents a day, if she calls her two daughters-in-law, it will be one hundred and thirty-five cents a day!
Besides, Li Qiao provided the ingredients, so it makes perfect sense for her to secretly use some for her family.
Hum, finally Li Qiao still has some conscience.
This short-term job is not as good as Li Chuntao's long-term job, but it is better than nothing.
After Zhao Mancang heard Li Qiao's words, the frustration in his heart immediately disappeared.
Li Qiao is a good boy and has not forgotten him.
He smiled and said: "There is a lot of work at home, so I can do it alone."
When Wang Hongqin heard this, she immediately broke the news: "The work in the fields is not that heavy. You guys can all do it. There are many people and we have strength. If we finish covering the little buckwheat and bamboo brothers early..."
Her words stopped abruptly.
its not right.
If Li Qiao's house was built quickly, her job would be gone!
Tangled!
