Chapter 37 Good things come hard
Chen Wenjun was happy, "Dad, we have just enough money, so we don't need yours!"
Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and asked innocently, "How much?"
"More than four thousand!" Lin Qin answered very straightforwardly.
Lin Yi couldn't help but gasp, "More than four thousand! My goodness! With this money, I can build a small western-style house in the village, and even contract hundreds of acres of land!"
Lin Qin knew at a glance that Lin Yi was worried about money, and immediately explained: "Dad! The situation is different. The price they gave is quite fair. Once we get the property certificate, we will prepare to open up the land and build a house. We can talk about other things later."
When it came to building a house, Lin Yi no longer worried about the money for buying the land.
Then he started to blame himself for not being able to help.
Lin Qin didn't like what he heard, so he turned around and went to the back to fish.
Chen Wenjun said excitedly: "Why don't we go to the deserted island now? Tractors can't go up there, so we have to open up the wasteland ourselves."
"It's okay to reclaim the land artificially. Such a large piece of land cannot be cultivated even if we clear it all at once. Let's pick a suitable place to build a house first." Lin Yi was very excited and was ready to go. He couldn't wait to pick up a hoe and go to work.
Wait until the ship docks.
Lin Yi was carried off the boat by Chen Wenjun, and the two children followed him down hand in hand wearing new clothes.
As soon as Lin Yi entered the gap, he asked Chen Wenjun to put him down. He was amazed at the large piece of land in front of him. "It's much bigger than I thought! We can clean up the slopes on the side and plant fruit trees and vegetables. It's convenient to draw water near the gap. How about we dig paddy fields, plant crops, and build houses in the middle?"
Lin Yi picked up a branch at random and limped towards the middle.
Chen Wenjun was afraid that he would fall, so he kept holding his arm.
Lin Yi didn't care about that and said to Lin Qin, "Go back to Shanglin Village and bring all the hoes and rakes from home. You can start working tomorrow."
"Dad! Stop messing around! We're the ones who should do anything! Just take care of the kids and cook for us." Lin Qin interrupted Lin Yi's enthusiasm.
The two of them spent a long time marking out the large area and almost finalized the general layout.
A week later, Han Guodong informed Chen Wenjun to go to collect the materials and then go to the Finance Bureau to pay the money.
Carrying so much money with him, not only was Lin Qin worried, but even Chen Wenjun himself was extremely nervous.
In order to smoothly deliver the money to the Finance Bureau, Lin Qin specially made a large cloth bag, put all the money in it, put it on the cart, she sat on it, and Chen Wenjun pushed her.
Put two large buckets of river shrimps in the car to make it look like there are enough of them.
Fortunately, they didn't meet any acquaintances along the way, and the two of them entered the Finance Bureau smoothly. When they paid the money, the other party even called three or four people to help count the amount. Only after confirming that there was no problem did they issue them an invoice.
After getting the invoice, the two of them treasured it like a treasure and did not dare to delay at all and sent it to Han Dongcai as soon as possible.
Han Dongcai took out the materials he had prepared in advance, asked the leader to sign and seal them, and handed all the documents to Chen Wenjun.
"It's OK! That deserted island is now called Nanyu. It's yours. You can build whatever you want. It's not that fast to lay wires. We have to wait for the power company to arrange it. You just wait a little longer."
"It's okay, it's okay. We're not in such a hurry. There's no rush." Chen Wenjun tightened his grip unconsciously while holding the materials. His heart gradually settled down and he felt much more relaxed.
Han Dong had just sent them out, and just as he reached the gate of the Land and Resources Bureau, he ran into Liu Yongming.
Liu Yongming was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly changed when he recognized Lin Qin. He quickly explained to Han Dongcai, "Director Han, don't listen to the nonsense of that bitch Lin Qin. She is a psychopath and she even beat my mother. I divorced her because I couldn't live with her anymore."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Han Dong looked at Lin Qin, then at Liu Yongming, his face full of shock.
Liu Yongming realized that Lin Qin was not here to cause trouble for him, and subconsciously covered his mouth with an expression that was very interesting.
Lin Qin smiled sarcastically and stepped forward. "Director Han, let me introduce you to this Comrade Liu Yongming, who is my ex-husband. We have just been divorced for less than two months. His new wife is expected to give birth in the next two months. He will probably invite you to the wedding banquet then!"
"Lin Qin!" Liu Yongming clenched his fists viciously and looked at Lin Qin with threatening eyes.
Han Dong finally understood and immediately frowned, "Liu Yongming! This is a government unit, what do you want to do? Apologize to Ms. Lin Qin immediately!"
Today's incident was purely Liu Yongming looking for trouble. Lin Qin and his wife had just bought a piece of land from him, so he would definitely protect Lin Qin and Chen Wenjun.
Liu Yongming's face turned pale and blue. Even though he was very angry, he didn't dare to challenge his leader. "I'm sorry."
Lin Qin curled her lips, not even looking at Liu Yongming, and said to Han Dongcai with a smile: "Director Han, thank you for troubling you today. How about this, we'll leave first and treat you to dinner another day when we're free."
"Okay, okay. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, you can come to me." Han Dong happily sent them out.
Liu Yongming was ignored and his desire to kill Lin Qin became stronger.
Lin Qin pulled Chen Wenjun out of the Land and Resources Bureau and angrily cursed, "It's such bad luck to run into him on such a good day!"
Chen Wenjun was amused. "You just performed really well! I was stunned by your aura. I think Liu Yongming is going to vomit to death. You even exposed his secrets. He won't be able to work peacefully in the future."
"You deserve it!" Lin Qin was in a very good mood. After walking for a while, she stopped and said, "Have we forgotten one thing? You gave Fang Ying from Fangshan Society fifty yuan to ask her to go to the provincial capital to verify the matter. It's been so long, why is there no news at all?"
If Lin Qin hadn't met Liu Yongming today, she would have almost forgotten such an important matter.
Chen Wenjun paused, gritted his teeth and said, "Well, I'll go to Fangshan Community to sell fish tomorrow, and then I'll find out what's going on."
Lin Qin nodded, "That's fine, just hope nothing happens!"
Her original intention was to take revenge on Liu Yongming and "Fang Ying", and she did not want to implicate innocent people. After all, Fang Ying was a young girl who had never been out of the small town. It would be terrible if she ran into trouble in the provincial capital where she was unfamiliar with the place.
There are many cases of trafficking in women and children these days.
The more Lin Qin thought about it, the more worried he became, and he even walked absent-mindedly.
Chen Wenjun asked, "Should we go to Dad's place to get a hoe and a rake?"
Lin Qin shook her head. "Forget it. Let's buy ourselves two new pairs. We'll need them often in the future. If we really bring those things of Dad here, we'll have to return them to him later. We'll need to use them often in the future. Why bother?"
Chen Wenjun thought about it and it seemed to be true, so he took Lin Qin to the supply and marketing cooperative.
It costs twenty or thirty yuan to buy two hoes and rakes, and you also have to buy two pairs of long rain boots. It is safer to wear rain boots when clearing land, and it can also provide protection in case you encounter snakes, insects, rats or ants.
