After leaving his master's house, Chen Wang went directly to the village chief's house and asked him if there was a suitable house in the village for them to stay temporarily.
"The house is available. Awang, do you have any requests?"
Village chief Chen Weiguo asked.
"I'm just staying for a few months, so I don't have any big requirements. It would be best if I had two rooms and a place to cook."
Chen Wang replied.
Chen Weiguo nodded, and after a moment's silence, he said, "After the 15th, there should be a lot of people going out to work. I'll go ask for you and see if there's any job close to your home."
"Okay, thank you in advance."
Chen Wang thanked him with a smile.
Chen Weiguo glared at him unhappily, "Why are you being polite?"
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I won't be hypocritical with you."
"That's right. Seeing you earn money to build a new house and your life getting better and better, I am really happy too!"
"Society is developing, and everyone will get better and better."
Chen Wang smiled and said.
"It would be nice if that were the case."
Chen Weiguo looked at him with complicated eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"Awang, in the past, everyone worked together and earned money together, and everyone's life was about the same. But now it's different. The fields have been divided, and each family is responsible for their own life. This has created a gap, which has both advantages and disadvantages."
"Village Chief, just say whatever you want to say."
Chen Wang was completely confused.
Chen Weiguo smiled with relief, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Maybe I'm old and I like to be sentimental. When I see someone in the village making a mess of their life, I get anxious too!"
"Awang, you are a capable person now, and your brain works quickly. If you find a way to help others make money in the future, please consider the people in our village."
"Hey, village chief, this is what you mean!"
Chen Wang suddenly understood.
It turns out that he went through so much trouble just to help the villagers get rich together.
"It's because I don't have the ability, so I can only rely on you young people."
Chen Weiguo said with a smile on his face.
"Village head, you just haven't changed your mindset yet. You like to take all the responsibilities on yourself. You also said that things are different now. Everyone has their own blessings. You can't control them all."
"I understand, but..."
"Village Chief, I can only assure you that I am also from Chenjia Village. If there is a way to make money for everyone, I will definitely give priority to the villagers!"
"That's enough, that's enough!"
Chen Weiguo smiled and nodded.
"Look at the house building matter. Didn't I ask Master to find a construction team in the village? It can be regarded as creating benefits for everyone, right?"
Chen Wang smiled and said.
"Yes, yes, you are a good boy."
Chen Weiguo nodded repeatedly.
"It's getting late, so I'll go back first."
"No, it's rare for you to come here, stay for dinner and have a couple of drinks with me."
"No, no, let's do it another day. My wife is cooking at home!"
"Okay, I'll help you find out about renting a house tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Chen Wang stood up, said goodbye, and left the village chief's house.
…
…
The next afternoon, the village chief came to the house and brought Chen Wang good news.
Less than two hundred meters away from Chen Wang's house, a family was about to go away to work, and their house was left empty.
Without saying a word, Chen Wang took his wife and little girl and followed the village chief to see the house.
It is a very ordinary bungalow with two rooms, one large and one small.
There is a shed on the right side of the house which is the kitchen, making it very convenient for cooking.
It's not very spacious or comfortable, but it's definitely enough for a temporary stay for a few months.
The owners of the house are a middle-aged couple and a teenage daughter. The three of them have been working together in other places for the past two years and only came back to stay for a few days before the New Year.
The family of three were very happy that Chen Wang wanted to rent the house.
They have already saved enough money to settle down in the big city where they work. To them, this house is just a place to stay temporarily during the Chinese New Year holidays. How could they not agree to this as it would bring them an extra income for free?
The conversation went smoothly, and finally, with the witness of the village chief, Chen Wang rented the house for 8 yuan a month.
The rental period starts from the 14th day of the first lunar month.
Chen Wang was also very straightforward and paid three months' rent directly.
If the tenant wants to continue living there after three months, Chen Wang will pay the tenant on a monthly basis. If the tenant continues to stay there for less than a month, the payment will be calculated based on the number of days.
With the village chief as a witness and everyone's surname is Chen, there is no need to sign any contract.
Anyone who doesn't keep his word will have no face to stay in Chenjia Village.
After the rental is settled, all you have to do is move your daily necessities in and you can live here directly.
After returning home, the little girl was still very excited.
The main reason was that it was her first time moving, and it felt very novel and interesting.
Lin Xiuqin had a gentle smile and was in a good mood.
For her, no matter where she goes, as long as Chen Wang and the little girl are together, that is her home.
"Brother, when the new house is built, let's build a small house for Ruyi and Dahei as well!"
The little girl stroked Dahei's head and made a suggestion.
Chen Wang nodded and said, "I have this plan in the beginning. When the time comes, we will build a bigger kennel for them. They will all be independent huts. We will also build a small wooden house for the little monkey Jixiang."
