Lin Chunsheng twisted his shoulders and neck unconsciously and asked Qin Zheng, "What's wrong, Lao Qin, why are you coming to see me at this time? Are you seeing a doctor?"
He doesn't look like he's sick.
"I need your help." Qin Zheng didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he got straight to the point.
"Okay, tell me what I can help you with." Lin Chunsheng didn't have many people he admired in his life, and Qin Zheng was definitely one of them.
If he hadn't had foresight, helping him to come here from the countryside and avoid the disaster of confiscation of property and extermination of the family, he would probably be dead by now.
This is a life-saving favor, so I must repay it with my life.
In this life, he will hit wherever Lao Qin points.
"Help me repair a house in the next two days."
"Are you planning to move out?" Lin Chunsheng nodded and said, "You should have learned from me and moved out a long time ago. There are so many people in the educated youth camp and the place is so small. It's always a mess. The sooner you move out, the more quiet it will be."
"No, it's not my house. I built it for someone else." Qin Zheng interrupted.
"Huh?!" Lin Chunsheng suspected that he had heard it wrongly.
When did this Lao Qin become so eager to help others? With his cold and dog-like temper, if he wasn't passionate enough, it would be impossible to be friends with him.
Two ice cubes collide and see which one is colder.
"I'm helping others. You need to contact more people on your side. You can help introduce a few reliable and quiet people to work together, and I'll pay them." Qin Zheng planned to make a quick decision, find more people, and try to finish the work within two or three days.
Lin Chunsheng looked at Qin Zheng and felt that the man who said little was referring to him.
"Okay, I'll go find someone tomorrow."
"Don't wait until tomorrow, go now. I'll go back to the educated youth site to find Chen Zhao and ask him to come and help." "Since you want to seize the time, how can you wait until tomorrow to go? You must act now.
When Lin Chunsheng heard this, he thought it was outrageous. Even the people in the educated youth center were going to be harmed. He became curious.
"Okay, I'll go now. By the way, where should we go after we find the person?"
"If you find someone, let them go to the small, shabby yard closest to the educated youth site. I will pay them one dollar a day, but food is not provided."
In order to find someone quickly and start the repairs quickly, Qin Zheng was really generous. At this time, if there is an opportunity to help earn money like this, the wages basically range from 20 to 30 cents a day to 50 to 60 cents a day.
It depends on the specific work, and also on how generous the person who hired the worker is. Qin Zheng directly raised the price to one dollar a day.
Anyone who wants to do this job will definitely fight for it.
"Oh, by the way, when you go to find people, ask if anyone has adobe, wood, tiles, or other things that can be used to repair the house. You can bring them over to exchange for money." After Qin Zheng told Lin Chunsheng, he went back to the educated youth center.
Lin Chunsheng was left confused. Was this still the old Qin he knew?
The educated youth site of Xiangyang Brigade was converted from a dilapidated courtyard of a former landlord. It was originally a large house and courtyard, but it was robbed several times by the enemy during the war and destroyed by various weapons. After liberation, the dilapidated courtyard was also inhabited by people. Later, when life got better, people gradually moved out and built new houses.
The broken yard became empty again.
Until the arrival of the educated youth.
The educated youth had no place to live when they arrived, so the leaders at the time turned this dilapidated courtyard into a youth educated youth site.
Many of the houses were so dilapidated that they were no longer habitable. So we simply took down all the useful things in the uninhabitable houses and used them to repair the habitable houses.
It's really like taking money from one pocket to pay for another.
In this way, there are still five rooms in the educated youth camp, two for male educated youth, two for female educated youth, and one for the public kitchen.
The former yard was also cleared out and used as a private plot.
In the early years, when the educated youth first went to the countryside, there were a lot of troubles, which dampened the enthusiasm of the villagers. It has only calmed down in the past two years. Some of the educated youth who went to the countryside early were worn down by life and farm work, and had long given up the idea of returning to the city. They either married villagers or married villagers and moved out of the educated youth site. These people are now just like ordinary villagers, and it is hard to tell that they were educated youth from the city.
Those who still stayed in the educated youth camps were either holding back their energy and thinking they could definitely return to the city and would never compromise, or they had just arrived and were not yet polished.
There is also an invisible barrier between these remaining educated youth.
They divided into small groups.
For example, Qin Zheng and Chen Zhao were together, Wu Zhiqiang and Wang Weiwen, and Xia Jianguo were together. The barriers among the female educated youth were even more obvious. Meng Xiao and Jiang Jiaojiao, who were both from big cities, naturally looked down on those who came from other places.
In short, it's just like Lin Chunsheng said, it's a mess.
Chen Zhao saw Qin Zheng coming back and greeted him, "Old Qin, come quickly. The meal will be ready soon."
Chen Zhao and Qin Zheng lived together, but between them, Chen Zhao was always responsible for cooking, while Qin Zheng was responsible for chopping wood and fetching water.
After all, we only have one life, and it is quite important. If we eat a few more meals cooked by Lao Qin, we may lose our life.
Qin Zheng walked over, picked up his bowl skillfully, and while eating, he told Chen Zhao that he would go to the team leader later to ask for leave to repair the house.
After listening to this, Chen Zhao did not raise any objection. He would just listen to whatever Lao Qin said.
Lao Qin would not harm him. It was Lao Qin who saved his life.
While washing dishes, Chen Zhaocai asked slyly, "Is that house owned by the lesbian named Ruan Mianmian?"
Qin Zheng said nothing and continued washing the dishes.
"You are so enthusiastic about helping others repair their houses. Do you have any intentions towards them? Do you have a crush on them?" Chen Zhao felt that this was most likely the case.
He had much sharper eyes than Lin Chunsheng. He had noticed long ago that Lao Qin had been secretly peeking at other female comrades several times.
When he was asked about helping someone with house repairs, he instinctively thought of that girl. When he was asked just now, Lao Qin didn't say anything, which meant he agreed.
Qin Zheng ignored him, turned around, and continued to wash the dishes. But Chen Zhao was not willing to let him go, and chased after him and continued, "Come on, tell me, is that right? I saw her from a distance a few times before, and she was very gentle. If you are not interested in her, then I will chase her."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qin Zheng glaring at him coldly, "Stay away from her!" The cold voice scared Chen Zhao.
He couldn't help but take a step back. He almost lost his grip on the bowl. This was the first time he saw Qin Zheng's expression. It was so scary.
