Previous life, Jiang Ning's whole family were cannon fodder in a novel about the protagonists' rise to fame and success, living as a contrasting background to them. Under the crushing press...
In rural areas, people do build houses, but most of them are mud-brick houses. They ask their fellow villagers to help build them and don't hire any construction teams.
Most of the red brick houses are built by work units, and they would definitely prefer to use experienced teams. Who would use a team that has never done this before?
Since the team was formed, Luo Guangming hasn't worked a single day.
He had no choice but to drink alone with Lin Chen.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "Go back and tell Zhang Lei, how about we start practicing at my house first?"
Luo Guangming immediately beamed: "Brother Chen, do you really trust us?"
"What's there to distrust? Just go for it. But I've made it clear, since this is the first order, you have to give me a discount."
"No problem, I'll go find Zhang Lei right away."
When Luo Guangming was so happy, he felt like he could walk without limping and ran very fast.
Soon, Zhang Lei came over with a smile and discussed building a house with Lin Chen.
After Lin Chen and Jiang Ning agreed on the location, they pointed it out to Zhang Lei:
"It's this half of a vegetable garden. We'll build three rooms, a kitchen, and a toilet on top of it. It'll be about 80 square meters in total. Can you calculate how much it will cost?"
Zhang Lei started to plan ahead: red bricks, cement, sand, timber, tiles... all of these needed to be purchased.
Even if we calculate the labor cost at 80 cents a day, it would still require more than 200 workers.
After calculating, he said, "Let's give you 860 yuan in total, at least enough to cover the management fees."
Lin Chen did a quick calculation: red bricks cost five cents each, so at least six thousand bricks would be needed; cement cost five cents a bag, so at least twenty bags would be needed; and sand cost five yuan a truckload, so two truckloads would be needed.
The timber will cost several cubic meters, which will also cost tens of yuan. And the tiles will also cost tens of yuan.
When you do the math, he really doesn't make any money.
“Okay, the team can come tomorrow,” Lin Chen agreed.
Zhang Lei was so happy that he quickly went to gather people.
That night, Lin Chen held Jiang Ning and kissed her repeatedly, his eyes filled with deep affection.
"Ningning, you are truly our family's lucky star. In such a short time, we are able to build a new house."
Jiang Ning whispered in his arms:
"That depends on how capable you are. If you're an incompetent fool, you'll squander your wealth even if you're given mountains of gold and silver."
Lin Chen smiled faintly: "Right, you admit I'm amazing now!"
He lifted her chin with his fingers, and his thumb rubbed against her lips.
Jiang Ning saw the lust in his eyes and retorted, "That's not what I meant!"
"What makes it so amazing?" Lin Chen asked deliberately, his hand already gripping her waist.
Jiang Ning immediately felt a tingling sensation and quickly begged for mercy: "You're amazing in every way! I can't take it anymore!"
