Chapter 188 Building a House
Chu Wen asked again: "Is your factory still hiring? Can you hire me?"
Feng Mian smiled and said, "Aren't you going to work at Yinxian?"
"What's so good about working in a bank? I can see the end of it at a glance. I might as well follow you. Young people should try their luck."
"If your family allows, come and try my place after you graduate."
Hearing this, Chu Wen sighed again and reluctantly agreed.
Feng Mian knew that her family had arranged a job for her, and it was likely that she would not be able to resist and would have to go to work in the bank in the end.
It was just a few polite words exchanged.
The factory gradually got back on track and made money in the first quarter.
Feng Mian took the fabrics produced by his own factory to discuss cooperation with a local garment factory, and became both their supplier and their customer.
That way, she had a local supplier.
Spring passed and autumn came, and in the autumn of that year, she proposed building a house.
"We can wait no longer. We should have built the house last year, but we were busy opening the factory and delayed it until now."
"You decide. How do you plan to build it?"
Fengmian bought a complete set of drawings for self-built houses in rural areas on Taobao. "It will be built like this. We don't know much about this. We just need to find a reliable master and pay the money."
Gu Yuelin looked at the blueprint. It was a really beautiful drawing. Even the houses built by rich people in Kyoto didn’t look as good as this.
Is this the house that rich people will live in in the future?
The windows are really big.
"Didn't my eldest cousin join the construction team? Let's go ask him about this."
"Well, let's go and ask him this week."
At this time, land was distributed in more and more places, and people did not have to report work points every day. Apart from spring plowing and autumn harvest, there was a lot of spare time.
Therefore, many surplus laborers choose to go to the city to look for opportunities to make money during the slack season. Women have to stay at home and take care of the children, so it is almost always men who go out to earn money. For men who are not very cultured and have a lot of strength, the most common jobs they can find are on construction sites.
This era was when the construction industry began to grow rapidly.
Fengjia Village has a good geographical location. They found jobs in the county town or Qingcheng, so they could go to work every morning and come back in the evening. Fengjia found a construction site for a factory and built walls with bricks. They worked day by day, one piece at a time.
On the weekend in Mi Village, Feng Mian and Gu Yuelin went to see him together.
He had just come back from outside Qingdao, and his clothes were still dirty, covered with cement debris.
He looked darker than before. This job was much more tiring than the work he had done in the village before.
"Cousin, find a few reliable workers to help me build the house. You will be the foreman and I will pay you three dollars a day. I will pay the laborers you find two dollars a day, on the condition that we provide quality work."
Feng Qi was stunned for a long time when he saw the drawing. It was so beautiful, but he was also very confused.
"When you graduate, you will be workers, right? You will be city dwellers in the future. Do you still have to renovate your house so beautifully?"
He felt that since they were not going to live there, it would be a waste of money to do so.
Feng Mian said: "We come here occasionally, but grandma and grandpa have to stay here all the time. They are old and have lived in a mud house all their lives. I hope they can enjoy their old age."
In fact, being in your teens is not considered old. If you take good care of yourself, you can still live for a few decades. It’s about time for you to live until Fengjia Village is demolished.
Feng Xiao was stunned and turned his head to look at Feng Xinliang and his wife Wang Xue.
Wang Xue's child has been born and is now in her arms.
