Zhang Degen laughed when he heard Pei Guoan say this: "That's right. After doing something like this, we have to make them worry a little more. Otherwise, how can they learn their lesson and not dare to be so greedy again in the future?"
When Pei Guoan heard what Zhang Degen said, a smile flashed in his eyes.
"Then what happens next depends on your performance, Uncle Degen. I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."
Today is Saturday and Pei Guoan has been busy recently and has not taken care of the things at home. It is a rare day off and there are many things to do. As a result, Zhang Degen asked him to come over as a reinforcement early in the morning and he doesn't want to waste any more time now.
Li Miaomiao saw Pei Guoan coming back and asked about the situation: "How is it? Captain Zhao must be furious, right?"
Li Miaomiao could imagine the scene. Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu had suffered a lot of bullying in Zhaojia Village before.
Although Accountant Wu went out for something today, and Zhang Degen looked easy to talk to, he was not a pushover. Moreover, he had been angered by the people in Zhaojia Village before, so he had to vent his anger today.
Pei Guoan looked at Li Miaomiao's mischievous expression, smiled helplessly, and told Li Miaomiao what had happened.
"This idea was yours, wasn't it? Did you help Zhaojia Village? Uncle Degen doesn't have that ability."
As soon as Li Miaomiao heard this, she knew that the middleman was not Zhang Degen, but Pei Guoan.
Pei Guoan knew that Li Miaomiao was also very unhappy about Zhaojiacun's previous behavior. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Li Miaomiao say, "You're right to do this. The soap factory is at a critical juncture right now. There's no need to be so ruthless to Zhao Qingmin. I think although he's not as smart as Accountant Wu, he's more vicious than him. If a man like him is pushed into a corner, it's hard to say what he will do."
It would be fine if it was in the peaceful times of the future, but it happened to be 1975, when the world was in chaos.
When Pei Guoan heard what Li Miaomiao said, he felt that he had a sense of connection with his wife. His wife was actually smarter than he thought, and she thought of the key point so quickly.
"I thought you would be angry. After all, the people from Zhaojia Village did go too far before."
"Not all people in Zhaojia Village are like this. It's just that Captain Zhao Qingmin is quite annoying. However, it's best not to push such a villain too far. After all, the times are still chaotic and villains are in power. You handled it this way very well. Who knows, after the matter is settled, you might even get some gratitude from Zhao Qingmin."
Li Miaomiao came from the future. From the perspective of someone who has experienced it, she can see some things very clearly. But Pei Guoan is different. He doesn't know the future direction of history, nor the content of the book, but he can still make such correct judgments and decisions. He is indeed the male protagonist.
"That's really smart. I did think this way. Our country is sick now, but it will get better sooner or later. I don't think it will take too long. Before that, we should be more careful before doing anything."
"Have you contacted that factory? What's the price?"
"The price still needs to be lowered. After all, compared to delivering it to our village, there are still travel expenses involved, which is something we must consider. But there's no need to lower it too much. I've already explained this to Uncle Degen, and he'll take care of it."
"Will this matter embarrass you?"
"No, in fact, that factory was worried about not being able to get bricks and tiles for expansion before the New Year. I brought bricks and tiles from Zhaojia Village over there, which solved their urgent need. It was considered a favor to them, and they offered a good price."
"So you're the one who's taking advantage the most."
Li Miaomiao knew that Pei Guoan would not help someone for free. In this trip, he not only sold favors but also made money. Not only Zhaojia Village and the factory, but Zhang Degen would probably remember a favor from him as well.
"That's fine. I contributed a lot, so I can't just work for nothing," Pei Guoan said half-jokingly.
"That's right. Since you have made an effort, you should be paid. Isn't that what you should do?"
Pei Guoan rubbed Li Miaomiao's head. This girl
"I'll go to the mountain and cut some bamboo. Didn't you say you wanted to build a bathroom? I have the last two days to rest and have some time to finish it. I'm afraid I'll be busy for the next few days."
It is really inconvenient to take a shower here, especially after Pei Guoan came back. Li Miaomiao didn't expect that her complaint would make Pei Guoan take it to heart and he wanted to build a shower room for her.
"That's great! If the bathroom is ready, I can take a comfortable bath. How about I go with you and help you?"
Li Miaomiao took the initiative to help Pei Guoan with the work. It was still early, so she didn't need to go to the soap workshop so early.
"No, just go do your thing. I'll be back from the mountain soon. It won't take long."
Pei Guoan's efficiency was as fast as ever. It only took him one day from cutting the bamboo to building the bathroom. When Li Miaomiao came back in the evening, the bathroom had already been built.
The bamboo bathroom looks very nice. Not only that, Pei Guoan also built a layer of insulation inside so that it won’t be drafty in winter.
Looking at the newly built bathroom and smelling the fragrance coming from the kitchen, Li Miaomiao felt that she had made the right decision to bring Pei Guoan back. Although Pei Guoan always liked to control her, this man was really a good man. He had none of the bad habits of those men. He was tolerant and patient with her and took the initiative to help with housework.
"Mom, you're back! Hurry up and wash your hands. Dad has already prepared the meal and we can eat soon." The little guy came out of the kitchen and said happily to Li Miaomiao.
"Okay, I'm coming."
It feels so good to just wash your hands and eat when you get home. Don’t mention it, Li Miaomiao is a bit busy today.
People from Niujia Village brought over several truckloads of tiles today. The factory building is now almost completed. All that's left is the busy work of laying the tiles. Even if she is lazy, she feels embarrassed to sleep in the office when she sees everyone working so hard outside, so she finally comes out to help.
Zhang Degen was still worried. Judging from the weather, there might be a heavy rain in the next two days, but the roof had not been covered with tiles yet. Even if waterproofing measures were taken, it would inevitably affect some progress. Unexpectedly, Niujia Village sent the first batch of tiles.
This was several days faster than he expected.
Looking at the men in Niujia Village, they were all unkempt and unshaven, but they looked at him with a smile.
"Captain Zhang, our captain is looking at the weather and is worried that it will rain heavily in the next two days. It will be difficult to lay the roof when the rain comes. He asked me to send these truckloads of tiles over first. The remaining tiles are being worked on as quickly as possible to see if the roof can be laid before the heavy rain comes. That way, no matter how heavy the rain is, we won't be afraid."
"Your tiles arrived just in time!"
Zhang Degen was really touched. He didn't expect that the people in Niujia Village could do this and make the tiles so quickly. It must be the result of working overtime.
