The team leader didn't have to wait long before the strong laborers sent by each household arrived at the door of the broadcasting room one after another.
Seeing that most people had arrived, the team leader didn't hide anything.
He directly told Sheng Zhiyi that he was planning to build a house and needed a lot of manpower.
In their village, villagers build houses mainly through mutual help.
When helping others build a house, you usually only need to provide them with food and no labor costs are required.
So when the team leader told them that they would help build the house without any meals, but would get 80 cents a day as wages, the scene was like a pot of boiling water, and immediately became boiling.
Someone exclaimed, someone started discussing excitedly, and someone else immediately said that they would go to help tomorrow.
Without exception, everyone's face was filled with excitement and joyful smiles.
Eighty cents a day!
Ten days is eight dollars!
It’s equivalent to half a month’s salary for an ordinary worker in the town!
Even if there are so many people and they can only work for a few days, they can still make a lot of money, enough for them to cut several kilograms of meat and have a fat year!
The team leader asked the villagers who were willing to help tomorrow to come and write their names.
After writing their names, the villagers returned home happily!
Before long, people all over the village started talking about Sheng Zhiyi's plan to build a house.
Some people expressed their confusion. Sheng Zhiqing already lived in such a nice house, living alone in a room, so why would he be willing to spend that much money on such a hassle?
Even if he and Mu Zhiqing were going to get married soon, a separate room would be enough for the two of them, right?!
They are educated youth! Sooner or later, they will have to return to the city.
If you spend money to build a house in the village, wouldn't that be a complete waste of money?!
I really don’t understand what these city kids are thinking!
Of course, more villagers laughed so happily after hearing the news!
If the educated youth want to build a house, let them build it. It won’t cost them any money anyway!
On the contrary, every household can earn a few days' wages to improve their lives. What's wrong with that?
Besides, when all the educated youth return to the city, the house will still belong to their village!
......
All the after-dinner talk in the village today was monopolized by Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi!
The villagers first had a heated discussion about Mu Yunxi's family background for a day, and then slowly shifted the topic to Sheng Zhiyi.
.........
After Sheng Zhiyi left the captain's house, he went to Aunt Wang's house.
He planned to catch the old hen he had ordered from her family before and use it to make soup later.
He returned to the courtyard with the old hen in his hand and ran into Shen Qinghuan who was waiting at the door.
Shen Qinghuan glanced at the chicken in his hand and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Has the foundation been settled so quickly?"
"Well, with the captain's help, things are going very smoothly."
Sheng Zhiyi was happy and replied with a smile on his face!
"Okay, then I'll help build the house tomorrow." Shen Qinghuan also smiled.
Sheng Zhiyi nodded and didn't bother to be polite with him.
: "Thank you for your hard work!"
Shen Qinghuan waved his hand with a happy smile.
: "You're welcome!"
Anyway, the house will be built as a dowry for marrying into the family, so he is naturally happy to help!
Besides, helping him is like helping his own sister! Why wouldn't he be unwilling?
Shen Qing laughed wildly and looked even more excited than Sheng Zhiyi!
He even took the chicken from Sheng Zhiyi's hand and said he wanted to help cook dinner.
Seeing him like that, Sheng Zhiyi knew that his cousin must have begun to accept him from the bottom of his heart.
Sheng Zhiyi naturally would not refuse the opportunity to take the relationship closer.
Made a sumptuous dinner with Shen Qinghuan.
This allowed Mr. Shen, Mu Zhengnan and others to have a deeper understanding of Sheng Zhiyi's cooking skills and a higher evaluation of them.
After dinner, Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi talked to everyone about Sheng Zhiyi's plan to build a house next to the courtyard.
When the Shen family and Mu Zhengnan heard this, they immediately understood what the two young men were planning.
Are they planning not to return to the city for the next few years?!
Mu Zhengnan looked at his daughter with a stern look on his face.
: "Have you made up your mind?"
Mu Yunxi smiled and nodded.
"Well, I quite like my current life. After feeding the pigs every day, I can go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables, dig bamboo shoots, pick mushrooms, and pick fruit. When I'm bored, I go fishing by the river, read a book, and enjoy the scenery along the way. It's pretty good."
Shen Qinghuan: “…”
After hearing what his sister said, he didn't want to go back to work anymore!
