Chapter 11 Entering the Construction Industry



At home, everything feels good. Although we don’t live a rich life, we are happy together as a family and everything we eat tastes delicious.

However, a good man has ambitions.

No matter how good his home is, Zhou Yuan can't stay there for a long time, right?

However, when Zhou Yuan returned home this time, he took his parents to the city hospital for a comprehensive check-up. There was no major problem. His father mainly had rheumatoid arthritis, and his mother had a seasonal cough.

The main reason is physical weakness, poor diet, insufficient nutrition, and overwork.

So in addition to the medicine prescribed by the doctor, Zhou Yuan specially prescribed some tonics for his mother to help her recuperate. In addition, he gave her two thousand yuan to help her improve her life.

But my mother looked at the money in her hand and said, "It would be better to replace the thatched house with a tiled house first, but why would we improve the food?

Do you think the food is bad even though you have food to eat?"

"Mom! Having food to eat is just the most basic requirement for human beings. People with better conditions pay attention to nutritional balance.

At the very least, eat an egg every day, fish once a week, have a small treat every few days, and make soup frequently.

Soups are the most nutritious. Pork rib soup, pig's trotter soup, fish head soup are all very nutritious."

My mother laughed when she heard this, looking surprised. "Do you think you're a landlord from the past? A rich lady? You're making soup? You've only been eating rice for two years? Before the household contract responsibility system, porridge was the most nutritious thing. What else do you want to eat?"

"Mom, that was in the past. Let's not talk about the past. With the reform and opening up, living conditions will definitely get better year by year.

In order to enjoy a better life in the future, you and Dad must take good care of your health, understand?"

As a reborn person, Zhou Yuan's most intuitive feeling is that after 2,000 years, especially after joining the WTO, the entire economic development will accelerate.

As individuals, our living standards will naturally improve.

In addition, now that he has his own warehouse and carries the information of a reborn person, at least he won't live too poorly, so he hopes that his parents will take good care of themselves, stay healthy, live longer, and enjoy more blessings.

But Liu Caijuan is the kind of rural woman who is used to suffering, and suffering is a very common thing for her.

If you want her to enjoy a good life, she will feel uncomfortable. Besides, she doesn't really believe that her son will have a bright future, become a big shot, and make a lot of money.

She only hoped that her son would be safe outside, earn some money to marry a wife, and that the family would have enough food to eat and clothes to wear.

This is the generation gap.

Being born into two different generations, they naturally think differently. Zhou Yuan also knows that it is useless to talk too much to his mother.

But one thing is certain, my mother has money, and her life will be better than before.

It’s nonsense to ask her to eat anything if she has no money. What can she eat?

So he felt that the most important thing was to pay her money regularly in the future.

His parents were eager to replace the thatched house with a tiled house. At his parents' request, Zhou Yuan spent almost a month and several thousand yuan to demolish the thatched house and build five new tiled houses.

He also bought some furniture. Although it was very ordinary, it caused a sensation in the village at that time.

Wow, a new house, new furniture, and the walls inside and outside are all painted snow-white with lime. It looks very cool.

Although many people lived in tiled houses at that time, not many of them painted the walls white.

The best built and whitest painted house is the village chief's house.

And now Zhou Yuan's family can compete with him, so for a while, the girls in the village all have green eyes when they see Zhou Yuan.

Some families directly asked Wang, the most famous matchmaker in the village, to come to Zhou Yuan's house to propose marriage. At this time, it was easy for Zhou Yuan to find a girlfriend.

But he had no interest in finding a girlfriend, so he told his mother, "I have someone in my heart. I will reject all matchmakers who come to propose marriage, no matter who they are. If you agree, you will marry her. I won't accept her."

"What? You're rebelling, aren't you?" Dad jumped up when he heard that, his face as black as the bottom of a pot as he shouted, "Marriage has always been decided by parents and the matchmaker. Why is it that it doesn't work for you?"

"Dad, what era is this? Arranged marriages don't work anymore. We advocate freedom of marriage now. Do you understand?"

Zhou Yuan directly retorted to his father. He also said to his parents, "Don't worry, sooner or later I'll find you a very beautiful daughter-in-law. Your son's dream is to achieve success in his career and he doesn't want to be bound by marriage so early. Do you understand?"

But Mom and Dad hummed at the same time: "I don't understand."

"If you don't understand, you'll understand slowly." Zhou Yuan said and laughed. No matter what his parents said, he would not agree to get engaged so early.

His parents couldn't do anything about him and could only watch helplessly.

The matter was eventually left unresolved.

The house has been built and most of the things I needed to buy have been bought.

With more than 10,000 yuan in his hand, Zhou Yuan was about to go out to sell the building materials in his warehouse, but he got a message from an old classmate that the town primary school was planning to rebuild the school, but due to lack of money, the labor price was kept very low and no one dared to contract it.

When Zhou Yuan heard this, he felt that this was an opportunity. If he could negotiate with the other party and get a package deal that included both labor and materials, he wouldn't be afraid even if the wages were a little lower.

Firstly, helping the school build a teaching building is a good thing. Secondly, the building materials are given away for free anyway, which means that the bulk of the profit is made by myself, and all the wages are given to the brothers. I don’t make any money, but as long as I don’t lose money, it’s fine.
