Chapter 26 Lack of Money



Build a house?

Qu Songsheng and Lin Wanxia both gasped in their hearts when they heard this.

In this era, let alone Quwan Village, even if you go to the streets in the countryside, you can hardly see any buildings.

How much will that cost?

Can you really make that much money?

However, the couple is now very clear.

Everything my daughter said would come true. If she said they could earn enough money to build a house, then they would definitely be able to do so.

That's building a building!

By then, it will be the only household in Quwan Village, and also in several nearby villages.

Thinking about the scene after the building is completed, Qu Songsheng feels excited.

Then he said to Lin Wanxia, ​​"Why don't we just not rush to build a house first?"

"Anyway, Manman is still young, and the current house is big enough for her to live in."

"Don't touch this money for now, let's see if there are any better business opportunities."

"When we make more money, it won't be too late to come back and build a better house."

【That’s right! 】

Qu Manman was very happy to hear this and couldn't help but continue to say in her heart: "There are still too few opportunities to make money in the countryside now."

If you want to make more money, you have to go to the city.

Seven thousand yuan is enough to buy a shop in the city. The price of shops will increase every year, so buy early and make money early.

[But you also need to choose a good location in the city; not all shops are prosperous.]

I think the area around the county center is a great place.

[The college entrance exam has only been resumed for a few years now, and the trend of studying and taking the college entrance exam is strong.]

[The county middle school is one of the top 100 middle schools in the country, and many students come here to study and pursue their dreams.]

[Students’ money is the easiest to earn…]

Schools in the 1980s did not have the closed-style teaching methods of today's schools.

Most of their students are day students.

Even if you don't go to school every day, you can come and go as you please.

Students at key middle schools have supplementary classes during winter and summer vacations, and they often have various night school classes and adult literacy classes...

The school is open almost all year round.

In terms of traffic and spending power, the area near the county center is definitely the strongest.

That is, now, the country has just opened up and encouraged individual economy, and many people have not yet reacted.

Shops near the county center haven't started raising prices yet.

After a few years, when everyone realizes that the location is prime, good shops will no longer be available for just a few thousand dollars.

What Qu Manman said is also the only way for Qu Songsheng to become rich.

After making his first fortune at the river construction site, his real rise began near the county center.

Qu Songsheng and Lin Wanxia listened to their daughter's inner thoughts and were more and more surprised.

My daughter's explanation was very logical.

It seems their business will be successful.

Excited, Qu Songsheng immediately said, "I'll go out tomorrow and ask around to see where I can find a suitable place to do business..."

On the same night, in the same yard, some were happy and some were sad.

Qu Baosheng lost the election for village party secretary and has recently been frequently targeted in the village committee.

I feel increasingly frustrated and uncomfortable.

But at this time, the eldest son Qu Aiguo fell in love with a girl.

The girl was very beautiful, but her father and brother were both disabled, and the family was so poor that they couldn't even find a decent pair of pants.

Because I was poor, I had to pay for my father and brother’s medical treatment.

The girl said that no matter who wants to marry her, he must first give a betrothal gift of 3,000 yuan, and then not a penny of dowry.

After marriage, I still have to take care of her family...

In this day and age, giving a few hundred yuan as a betrothal gift to marry a wife in the countryside is considered an astronomical price.

Then you have to bring furniture and bedding as a dowry.

Not only did this girl ask for three thousand, but she also didn't give any dowry and had to take care of her parents' family.

Marrying her is like marrying a burden to the whole family.

Besides, apart from being good-looking, she only has an elementary school education.

She is a country girl who doesn't have a decent job and just makes a living by working in the fields.

Why would someone spend so much money to marry her?

Therefore, once the girl put forward her conditions, she scared away a bunch of matchmakers who came to her house.

Now she is a 25-year-old maid and still unmarried.

They became the laughing stock of several nearby villages.

But at this time, Qu Aiguo accidentally saw the girl and fell in love with her at first sight.

He didn't care that the girl was three years older than him and insisted on marrying her.

Qu Aiguo went home and made a fuss with Qu Baosheng every day, asking his family to pay a betrothal gift of 3,000 yuan.

Qu Baosheng was very helpless: "Other families only spend a few hundred to marry a daughter-in-law, but you want 3,000, what do you think of our family?"

"I, your father, am just a poor commoner. I'm not a money-printing machine. I don't have that ability."

Qu Aiguo was puzzled: "Dad, you've been the village party secretary for so many years, and you haven't earned 3,000 yuan?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your father and I have never coveted anything from the village."

Qu Baosheng was furious after hearing what he said.

However, Qu Aiguo simply didn't believe it: "How could you not be elected this time if you haven't been corrupt at all? I think you're giving to my brother Aijun, right? You gave him all the money and helped him find connections and get a job."

"I knew that since we were little, you and my mother have always favored Aijun and ignored me."

"Three thousand yuan, it's okay if you can't come up with it."

"At worst, I can marry into the family. If you don't have the money to marry a wife, I can just be a live-in son-in-law."

Qu Baosheng was so angry that he almost fainted. If his eldest son really became a son-in-law, how could he, the former village party secretary, hold his head up in the village in the future?

"I don't care. Since you can't come up with 3,000 yuan to help me get married, I'll just be a live-in son-in-law. I don't mind being ashamed."

Qu Aiguo ignored it and left after saying this.

"You, you, you're going to piss me off to death!"

Qu Baosheng was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet...

On the other side, the room of Wang Guilan, the second wife, was filled with gloom and sadness.

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Although she had no worries about food and drink during the three months after her fracture,
