Chapter 518 Movie

Zhou Chengsen didn't want to upset his mother, so he pointed at the pile of bricks outside the house and changed the subject: "Whose bricks are there? My great-grandmother's?"

Generally speaking, placing bricks near a piece of land is equivalent to preparing to build a house on that land, but these pieces of land are the homesteads of several brothers, and one piece belongs to their great-grandmother, so Zhou Chengsen asked this question.

Zhou's mother heard this and said, "That was bought by Lei to raise the wall of the courtyard."

Zhou Chengsen couldn't help but glance at the courtyard wall. Wasn't it high enough? And the top of the wall was full of broken glass. Why was it raised higher? Could it be...

"Has he been robbed recently?"

Zhou's mother: "No, there are people at home every day, no thief would dare to come. A Lei wants to raise the wall to block the window."

Zhou Chengsen understood, for he had seen Zhou Guohua's wife looking over from that window two or three times.

That window faces the second floor of the house, and the living room on the second floor can be seen through the balcony and the window, so the curtains on the living room on the second floor are always drawn.

My fourth brother is a man who buckles up his clothes as soon as he leaves his room. How can he bear being peeped at from time to time? It was OK when the weather was cold before, so the window was always closed. Now that the weather is getting warmer, the window will be opened more often. So Lei bought bricks to raise the wall, right? "Are you going to raise the wall tomorrow? It happens to be the May Day holiday, and I'm at home. There's no need to hire anyone to do it. The three of us brothers can do it in one day."

"No need. Zhou Bingqiang's wife said she would raise the wall herself. She was afraid that if we raised the wall, it would suppress her fortune. If they don't raise it, we will raise it."

Zhou Chengsen's mouth twitched, but he didn't comment.

Jiang Xia reminded him, "Brother, A Lei said that the price of bricks has increased again, by one cent a piece. The director of the brick factory said that the price will increase further later. Don't you want to go back to the village to build a house? Do you want to order some bricks? If you don't have enough money, we have some here."

Zhou Chengsen: "No, the money for ordering bricks is enough."

Zhou's mother: "Then you can order 30,000 bricks first! We don't know when the price will go up again."

The price of a brick has increased by one cent now. One cent may not sound like much, but it takes about 20,000 bricks to build a floor, which means it costs two hundred yuan more.

This does not include the bricks for the courtyard wall. If the courtyard is large, a lot of bricks will be needed. Let's calculate it based on 30,000 bricks, which is 300 yuan.

Three hundred yuan. If the second son doesn’t have a fishing boat, it will take three or four months for the couple to save it up just by relying on their wages, right?

Jiang Xia: "In addition to bricks, sand, steel bars and cement, they are also a little more expensive than when we first bought them. It is more cost-effective to build it sooner rather than later. If you don't have enough money, you can ask for it. We have some here."

Zhou Chengsen: "I know, thank you, Fourth Sister-in-law. If it's not enough, I'll ask you again."

If the squid season can last until the end of this month, that should be about the same.

*Zhou Chenglei didn't come back until almost seven o'clock in the evening.

Jiang Xia asked: "Is everything done?"

Zhou Chenglei nodded: "It's all done."

Tomorrow is the May Day holiday, and he plans to go cut some bamboos tomorrow. In the evening or the day after tomorrow, he and Jiang Xia will go back to have dinner with Jiang's father and mother, and by the way, transport some bamboos to the house in the city to build a flower rack. When the watermelon vines grow, the flower rack will be needed to climb up.

Jiang's mother hasn't been there since she returned from a business trip. She doesn't know if the issue at the garment factory has been resolved, but she has to go over and check on it.

During dinner, Zhou Chenglei also asked Zhou Chengsen if he wanted to order a batch of bricks first if he planned to build a house.

The construction of the factory in Jiangxia started in mid-May. Zhou Chenglei plans to order 200,000 to 300,000 bricks in the next two days. He wants a large quantity and wants to see if he can get a discount. If Zhou Chengsen wants to order bricks, they can order them together.

After hearing this, Zhou's father said, "Order it! You have to order it sooner or later. If you don't have enough money, your mother and I will help you pay first."

Zhou Chengsen heard this and said, "No, it's enough money. The income from fishing at sea is good these days. Alei and I will go to order it together when the time comes."

*The next day Zhou Chenglei got up early and cut some bamboo, then he and Zhou Chengsen went to the brick factory to order bricks.

Because Zhou Chenglei ordered 300,000 bricks at one time, we can give them a discount of one cent and pay them according to the price before the price increase.

Factory Manager: "When do you want the bricks? You want so many, and they can't be fired that quickly."

Zhou Chenglei: "Twenty days later."

After construction begins, the foundation needs to be dug, which will take several days.

Factory Manager: "Okay, that's no problem. I'll try to get it out."

"Thanks."

After paying the deposit and agreeing on an approximate delivery time, the two brothers left.

Not far from the brick factory, I met Zhou Bingqiang who was riding a bicycle.

Zhou Bingqiang greeted them, and then they passed each other.

Zhou Bingqiang entered the brick factory, greeted the factory director, and asked casually, "Is Zhou Yongfu's second son coming to order bricks to build a house?"

He guessed that this time Zhou Chengsen was preparing to build a house.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Factory Manager: "No, A-lei is planning to build a factory and ordered 300,000 bricks. Wow, that guy is really capable. With 300,000 bricks, I don't know how big a factory can be built."

The factory director’s son is the same age as Zhou Chenglei, but he is not as capable as Zhou Chenglei, so he couldn’t help but sigh.

Zhou Bingqiang: “…”

His wife was afraid that other people's courtyard walls would be raised to suppress her family's fortune, so she insisted on raising her own courtyard wall to suppress the other party's fortune!

How to suppress it when they are preparing to build a factory? However, Zhou Bingqiang still bought some bricks and raised the wall.

Zhou Chenglei returned home just in time for lunch. After lunch, he took a few bundles of bamboo and set off for the city with Jiang Xia.

They had to transport the bamboo to the new house first and then drive the tractor back to the Jiang family.

On the way back to Jiang's house, we passed by the Municipal Theater. It was probably the May Day holiday, so there were many people there.

Zhou Chenglei slowed down the tractor.

At the entrance of the theater, Li Xiuxian and Liao Ruixiang had bought tickets and were about to buy some melon seeds to eat before going in. Then she heard the sound of a tractor. She subconsciously turned her head to look and was so scared that she quickly walked into the theater.

When Liao Ruixiang saw her, he quickly followed her in and put his arm around her waist: "What's wrong? Don't you want to buy melon seeds?"

Li Xiuxian whispered, "Don't touch me. I don't know if my brother-in-law and his wife are here to watch the show."

Liao Ruixiang loosened his hand upon hearing this, took a few steps away from Li Xiuxian, and looked out: "Which one?"

"They are driving a tractor. Forget it, I won't watch it anymore. I'll go home." Li Xiuxian was scared to death. She didn't know whether Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia saw them.

Liao Ruixiang saw the street: "The tractor left but didn't stop. There are so many people here today. They can't see us."

"No, I want to go back..." She was so scared.

Liao Ruixiang: "Okay, okay, okay, then let's not watch anymore. Let's wait until the tractor goes far away before going out, okay?"

Li Xiuxian nodded.
