Chapter 42 Money Flows: My New Friend Made Me Emo!



Qian Duoduo looked at her father's smiling face and walked over to him, saying, "Dad, what are you so happy about?"

Qian Sheng laughed and said, "These educated youth are really rich. They can build houses whenever they want."

Qian Duoduo sighed and said, "Dad, have you thought about it? Why don't the educated youth want to live in the educated youth compound? Let's not even talk about Sister Feng and Brother Yun. Back then, the last row of houses in the educated youth compound could have been renovated and lived in, but they still built their own houses and moved out. Later educated youth renovated them and lived there, but it's not impossible to add more people. But look, they don't want to live in the educated youth compound now. If something happens to the educated youth in the future, you and the old Party Secretary will be the ones who are derelict in your duty!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Sheng realized that this was indeed the reason. There were plenty of people like Zhang Ergou in the village, and if he really did something out of control, he would really be unable to extricate himself.

He asked, "Dodo, what do you think we should do?"

Qian Duoduo said, "Build houses at the other end of the educated youth compound, and make sure there is a plan. Also, put a wall around their perimeter so that they can be their own separate group without interfering with each other."

Qian Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Wouldn't that make us stand out from the village?"

Qian Duoduo: "They were never meant to fit in with the people in our village. The villagers looked down on the work they did, and they looked down on the villagers' rustic ways."

Qian Sheng sighed and said, "Ah, these people!"

Qian Duoduo sat down next to Qian Sheng and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. The educated youth went to the countryside, and they never relied on the weather for their livelihood like we did. We've never seen the prosperity of big cities. That's the difference."

Qian Sheng said, "Feng Zhiqing and his group don't have much land here."

Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "Isn't there a large area on the other side? Let them build there. There's only one place they can build in, and if they build first, they can choose the location."

Qian Sheng laughed: "You little rascal, you're so cunning."

Qian Duoduo stuck out her tongue and ran away. Whew, thankfully the task was completed. Now Sister Feng and Brother Yun can have some peace and quiet.

When Wang Lin learned that he could build houses on the vacant land next to the educated youth compound, his expression darkened. After all, he was no longer at the compound, and his position as the person in charge was practically meaningless. However, when the brigade leader added, "Anyone who wants to build their own house can register here at Qianxiang. First come, first served, and first served in choosing their location. Finally, there's one more thing: after these houses are built, there will be a wall around the outside. This is to protect you from wild animals coming down from the mountains. Of course, if you think you can fight off wild animals, I don't mind keeping you outside."

The others were initially a little resentful when they heard about the wall, but by the end, they all fell silent, after all, their lives were at stake.

Qian Sheng didn't say much as he looked at the group of people. He nodded to Qian Xiang and said, "If you want to build a shared room like the educated youth's, the price will be the same as theirs. If you want a private room, add 20 yuan."

Qian Xiang nodded and said, "I understand, Captain."

Qian Sheng said, "I've already told you the price for building the houses. You can decide for yourselves. Take advantage of the fact that it's not too cold yet and you can still build the houses. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until after the spring planting next year." After saying that, he glanced at the educated youth, and none of them said anything. Then he left with Qian Xiang.

After they left, the educated youth compound was like boiling water. Only Wang Lin, who was injured, was present; the others ignored him.

When Qian Duoduo returned to school, she showed the fourth-grade students what it meant to be outmatched. Whether it was calculation or memorization, this girl who had skipped a grade could do it all. Before, they thought they could get 80 points or so on the exam, but now she got 100 points in both subjects, showing them just how tough she really was.

Qian Duoduo's semester was very short. The school was closed for the holidays in November. There was no other way, since the school had no heating and it was very difficult for the children to go to school. Moreover, the teachers did not want to teach in classrooms with the same temperature as the outside. So, the school simply closed for the holidays.

However, Qian Duoduo's house was still quite lively. After all, many children had been chased to the Qian family by their mothers' shoe soles to study with Qian Duoduo. But they only went for three days and refused to go again. Neither shoe soles nor fire sticks could stop them. When asked, they would say, "The eyes of the four Qian family members are too scary. They can't answer the questions he gives. If they can't answer, they will be punished with more questions. They can't answer them either."

Some parents asked, "If you can't do it, why can't others?"

"We don't know anything except for Qian Duoduo."

One sentence shut up all those old women. It seems that learning really does require talent; it's not something you can just learn by wishing for it.

The Qian family was only lively for a few days before it quieted down. Qian Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief. Oh my, these people are too noisy. Even when I'm reading a book, they keep asking me all sorts of questions. It's better to be quiet!

Lying on the warm kang (heated brick bed), Qian Duoduo realized she hadn't been to the farm for several days. As soon as she entered, she saw a message from the mall. She clicked on it and saw a friend request. Qian Duoduo immediately accepted and then looked at the other person's information: code name Jupiter, level 1.

Oh, this is a newbie. Looks like she's not online right now. But that's okay. Let's fill the shelves with the items and see what happens when she comes online.

After checking the other messages, I saw orders from Qin Feng and Su Ruanruan. Fortunately, I already had the items for Qin Feng's order in my warehouse. So I used Qin Feng's dedicated sales shelf to put the items on the shelf according to his requirements. I did the same for Su Ruanruan's order. After everything was done, I just waited for the two of them to pay and receive the goods.
