Thinking of the bustling scene he had seen at the town kiln factory, the team leader said to Lin Yizhen, "Lin Zhiqing! Bricks and tiles are not easy to buy. Why don't you build a stone house?"
Building a stone house? That's not an option. A stone house would be cool in the summer, but it would be a torture in the winter.
And she couldn't heat the kang, otherwise the stone would crack, and then her house would be built in vain.
But buying bricks is also a problem. If I really wait in line as the team leader said, I may not even get my turn until next year.
However, this matter can be put off for a couple of days. Once I'm done with these two days, I'll go check out the kiln factory in town.
That day, Lin Yizhen followed the team leader to select a homestead in the village. All that was left was for the team leader to find people to start the construction, and she only had to be responsible for preparing the funds.
Lin Yizhen wanted to build five rooms using blue bricks, three main rooms, one wing room on each side, and a separate kitchen and utility room.
Adding the food and labor costs, the team leader calculated for her that the total cost would be more than one hundred yuan.
If you don't use blue bricks and build an adobe house, it can be built for thirty to fifty yuan. Even if you use a mixture of stone and adobe, it can be built for seventy to eighty yuan, which is nearly half the price of using blue bricks.
The team leader actually wanted her to build a house with a mixture of stone and adobe, which would save a lot of money.
But Lin Yizhen didn't want to. She was not short of money, so why should she be so frugal?
Lin Yizhen nodded and said, "Uncle Captain, let's just build a brick house! I'll find a way to get the bricks and tiles myself, and as for food, I'll go to town to buy some this afternoon.
I'll have to trouble the captain to help me arrange it when the time comes."
"Okay, as long as you get the blue bricks and tiles back, leave the rest to me." Team leader Li Tiejun patted his chest and assured Lin Yizhen.
In the following time, apart from cutting grass for pigs to complete her work, Lin Yizhen was busy building the house.
First, she took the village ox cart to the town.
Then, I found a secluded place to enter the space and change clothes.
I was planning to go to the black market to sell the two wild boars in the space, but those two wild boars were too big, and I didn’t know if the Fifth Master could eat them?
After thinking about it, Lin Yizhen took out a wild boar first.
This time, Lin Yizhen did not sell the meat separately, but pushed the whole wild boar to sell.
The price of a whole wild boar was only 80 cents per pound. The big wild boar weighed a total of 530 pounds and was sold for 424 yuan.
After paying the bill, Wu Ye casually asked, "Uncle, why didn't you bring any rice or flour to sell today?"
"Not yet." Lin Yizhen replied while counting the money.
Wu Ye was very dissatisfied with her answer, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he winked at the people around him and left.
Lin Yizhen didn't notice Wu Ye's actions. She counted the money and pushed her wheelbarrow away from the black market.
After walking for a while, Lin Yizhen felt that someone was following her.
This time, because I was pushing a cart.
It was difficult to shake them off at the moment, so I could only continue walking forward as if nothing had happened.
When they were about to pass through the reeds, Lin Yizhen put down the cart in her hand and waited for the people following behind her to come over.
Zhuang Weixing, who was following Lin Yizhen, felt something was wrong when he saw the old man in front of him stop moving.
But then he thought about the several people around him. Could it be that so many of them couldn't deal with an old man?
So, he exchanged glances with the people around him, and they went up together to surround Lin Yizhen.
Lin Yizhen, who was surrounded in the middle, was not nervous at all, and had completely changed from her previous timid appearance.
Instead, he looked fearless, which made Zhuang Weixing and the others a little confused.
This was the first time they had encountered such a fearless person. Didn’t they know they would be robbed soon?
However, it’s good that he is not afraid, because that makes it more challenging.
It's so boring to always meet timid people.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Weixing said to his men, "Take out all the money from this old man and push his cart away."
After hearing what Zhuang Weixing said, Lin Yizhen felt speechless.
If you want to rob me, just rob me. Why are you robbing my cart? It's not worth much.
Forget it, since these guys want to rob her, she doesn't need to be polite to them anymore.
I'll counter-rob them and teach them a lesson.
Let's see if they dare to be so arrogant in the future. The thieves are eating the thieves and it happened to me. I am really tired of living like an old man.
Before they could make a move, Lin Yizhen knocked them all to the ground with a punch on the left and a kick on the right.
He also went up and searched all their pockets, and found that only the leader had about ten yuan on him.
The others only had one or two yuan on them, and one person even had only 60 cents on him. It was really pitiful.
Because the amount of money was so little, Lin Yizhen couldn't bear to take the sixty cents.
However, no matter how reluctant I am, I still have to take every penny I deserve.
These people were robbed by Lin Yizhen, and they all fell to the ground crying and begging for mercy. But Lin Yizhen ignored them and pushed the wheelbarrow away.
Unexpectedly, my legs were hugged and I looked back.
It turned out to be Widow Li’s son, the leader.
Lin Yizhen shook her feet twice but failed to shake them off. She said to him in a bad tone: "Let go, or you will bear the consequences."
"Master, please accept me as your disciple! I, Zhuang Weixing, will take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life." Zhuang Weixing said while lying on the ground, hugging Lin Yizhen's legs.
