Chapter 143: Space has also become a decoration...
Zhao Fa had already promised this a long time ago, and especially since they were treated to such delicious food and wine, he was even more enthusiastic about it.
After eating and drinking, they decided to start work.
Zhao Fa helped to send a few bricklayers and ten capable laborers. Tan Chen would be responsible for everyone's lunch and a pack of cigarettes per person per day. The rest would be considered as the team's. After all, Secretary Cui had specifically instructed Tan Chen to do something, and Tan Chen did not use the team to provide materials, so the team would naturally have to bear the labor costs.
Shang Ruoting thought about the furniture in the new house. She had many styles from later generations in her mind. Although she couldn't make anything too outstanding here, at least she could combine the two and take advantage of the advantages and avoid the disadvantages.
So, she suggested that the two team leaders help find two carpenters to help them make furniture, and she would pay for the wages herself.
Zhao Fadu readily agreed and the construction started the day after tomorrow.
On the night after seeing off Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang, Shang Ruoting drew several furniture drawings in the room. Tan Chen also made some suggestions. The two cooperated very well, and the drawings they drew were absolutely perfect in this era.
Tan Chen touched her head lovingly and said, "I really don't know what's in your little head. You can even think of such a novel furniture style."
Shang Ruoting dared not bow to these. After all, these were designed by people in later generations based on countless years of experience. She could only be regarded as a plagiarist.
"Haha... Actually, these things are not difficult, you just don't think about it in that way."
Her casual and vague words were nothing, but they had a great impact on Tan Chen. At this moment, his mind was working non-stop based on Shang Ruoting's words, and it seemed that he had come up with a better plan.
So, while the paper and pen on the table were still there, he sat there and started drawing.
Shang Ruoting also sat aside and watched carefully, and from time to time she would mention some ideas she saw in the 22nd century.
Tan Chen was already very interested in drawing blueprints. With his own ideas and Shang Ruoting's suggestions, he once again drew a perfect furniture structure drawing.
The two of them were so busy that they ignored the time. When they put away these things, it was already late at night. They washed up quickly before going to bed.
The time for them to build the house had been set. In order to provide meals for the members who came to help, in addition to doing the work in the production team the next day, they also had to prepare more food. After all, with so many people working, there would not be enough food if there were not enough.
Shang Ruoting took the initiative to suggest going to the commune to buy food. After all, as long as she went out for a walk, she could prepare the ingredients without spending a penny.
But Old Lady Shang and Tan Chen didn't know that there was food in her space. They both objected, especially Tan Chen. He felt so distressed when Shang Ruoting came back carrying a hundred kilograms of cornmeal. This time, there were more things to buy. His eyes were healed, and he absolutely couldn't let Shang Ruoting work so hard again.
Shang Ruoting racked her brains but couldn't come up with any reason to resolve the matter, so she could only give up. Now it seemed that although Tan Chen's eyesight had healed, it was a good thing, but her space had become a decoration...
As for what will happen in the future, we can only wait and see.
Purchasing so much grain in this era is not an easy task. Not only does it require a large number of grain coupons, but the supply from the supply and marketing cooperatives will also be limited.
Finally, at the suggestion of Old Lady Shang, Tan Chen went to the team to see if anyone had extra food and could exchange some for work points. This was better than buying it with food coupons and then having it limited in supply.
After listening to the old man's advice, Tan Chen went directly to the team.
When Shang Ruoting saw Tan Chen going out to buy food, she thought that now she should have the opportunity to go to the supply and marketing cooperative. Since she couldn't use the food in the space, it would be good to use the vegetables.
So, she pushed the cart used to deliver eggs from the chicken coop, told Old Lady Shang that she was going to the supply and marketing cooperative, and then she ran away in a flash, as if she was afraid that Old Lady Shang would pull her back...
On the way to the supply and marketing cooperative, Shang Ruoting walked very quickly. Based on her understanding of Tan Chen, if he knew that she was going to the supply and marketing cooperative alone to buy vegetables, he would definitely go to pick her up. As long as she could prepare the vegetables before Tan Chen arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, everything would be ok.
This time, she was more careful and did not walk all the way to the supply and marketing cooperative. Instead, she stopped halfway, found a deserted place, and took out a lot of potatoes, cabbages, and radishes of each kind from the space.
In addition to these, she remembered that she had seen wood ear mushrooms at the supply and marketing cooperative last time. She happened to have some stored in her space, so she took them all out. Then she would go to the tofu shop in the team to buy some tofu. The ingredients for cooking would be enough to last for more than ten days.
After she had prepared her things, she slowly pushed the cart back.
Fortunately, she had just had a sudden realization and prepared the food before going to the supply and marketing cooperative. Not long after she walked out, she saw Tan Chen jogging.
Seeing that the cart she was pushing was piled with various vegetables, Tan Chen started jogging and quickly ran in front of her.
