Chapter 177 Mr. Accountant
A pencil with a bumpy surface and covered in saliva fell to the ground with a "thump".
The sound was not loud, but it woke up the two people next to them whose heads were about to be stuck in their knees.
"Slurp~ Oh my god, no wonder my grandma didn't let me go to school. Going to school is really not a job for human beings."
Wiped my drool,
Zhao Zhaodi, who was about to fall asleep, muttered softly.
I secretly looked up at John, who was standing on the wall with a branch and talking incessantly.
See that the other person didn't notice that I was sleeping.
Zhao Zhaodi quickly bent down and picked up the pencil that she had chewed beyond recognition.
By the way, I wiped the saliva on the pencil from my pants.
Old man Ye was also awakened by the pencil.
Looking at his dejected daughter-in-law, Old Man Ye silently tried to straighten his back, hoping to clear his mind.
He didn't want to sleep either, but when the foreign doctor opened his mouth, his foreign language sounded like the croaking of toads in the ground, croaking endlessly, without beginning or end, and not even as pleasant as Dabai's.
Old man Ye dozed off after listening to it.
As for the old lady Ye who was very enthusiastic in leading everyone to learn at the beginning.
I went back to my room and went to bed early.
Before leaving, she arranged for Old Man Ye to study for her, under the pretext that when she woke up, Old Man Ye would give her extra lessons so that she could review what she had learned.
John was speaking passionately on the podium, while the mob below was drowsy.
"Squeak"
The door of Old Ye's house was pushed open from the outside.
Once you start learning, even the smallest things can become interesting.
The students in the room turned around to see who had arrived, their eyes brighter than the other.
He doesn't look sleepy at all.
Captain Qin wanted to find Ye Lin to discuss the school construction.
As soon as I entered the door, I was given a stare.
Captain Qin felt uncomfortable being stared at by this group of people, so he simply didn't go into the house and stood in the yard calling Ye Lin.
"Is it convenient for me to visit my nephew? Our school has already marked out a spot. Let's go take a look together."
"It's convenient. Uncle Qin, please wait for me to change my clothes. Ah Hui, go and move a stool for me."
"Okay, let's not rush. Take your time, nephew."
Ye Lin taught classes in the morning and taught them a few words.
The quality of chalk these days is really bad. He didn't write many words but was covered in dust.
After changing into a new coat, Ye Lin took Ah Hui and Captain Qin to the wasteland behind the village.
There is a piece of land behind the village. It is not fertile enough. The amount of grain grown every year is always less than the amount of land. Gradually, it has become a wasteland.
It would be very suitable to use it to build a school now.
The place is spacious and flat, and is only a two-minute walk from where villagers gather. It is convenient for children to go to school, and the noise from the school will not affect the lives of the villagers.
When I finish working in the fields, I can take the children home.
Captain Qin became more and more satisfied the more he looked at it.
He raised his hand and pointed to a piece of yellow land in front of him, indicating it to Ye Lin.
"Look, nephew Lin, if we use all this land to build a school, it will take at least ten acres. After we cover it with cement, this is what our village school should look like!"
Captain Qin became more and more excited as he spoke, and at the end he excitedly gave Ye Lin a thumbs up.
"Well, that's good. When does the village plan to start construction?"
Ye Lin nodded and reluctantly supported Captain Qin.
Please forgive him for never having attended such a simple school in his two lifetimes. He really couldn't be as excited as Captain Qin.
In Ye Lin's eyes, this school is just an unfinished building.
When he has money in his pocket, he must renovate it.
Captain Qin didn't care. Boss Ye had seen all kinds of good things, so it was impossible for him to get excited.
After clearing his mind, he began to tell Ye Lin about his plan.
"Nephew Lin, the New Year is almost here. The village plans to level the land first and try to dig the foundation before the New Year. The rest of the work will start after the New Year."
As Captain Qin spoke, there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"Also, nephew Lin, this school was built with your donation. At least someone from the Ye family should supervise the construction, right? Someone needs to keep an eye on where every penny of this money is spent."
It turned out that Captain Qin called him out for this matter.
There's nothing to worry about with tens of thousands of dollars.
Ye Lin waved his hand nonchalantly and asked Captain Qin to take charge of the arrangements.
"Uncle Qin, since the money has been donated to the village, you can make the arrangements. As long as the children can go to school, everything else is trivial."
"That won't do."
Captain Qin is usually a serious person. Building a school involves tens of thousands of dollars and the future of all the children in the village.
How can we be careless? We must address the root causes.
Thinking of the group of people in the village, Captain Qin carefully explained to Ye Lin why the Ye family had to send someone to keep an eye on them.
"Nephew Lin, this is a matter worth tens of thousands of dollars, so it's inevitable that some people will be tempted to take advantage of it. Although we have been friends for decades, people's hearts are hidden, and I can't guarantee that they will have clean hands."
"Your uncle is the team leader. If I hold on to the money, it wouldn't be appropriate. The people would think I wanted to keep it all for myself."
"Just consider it a favor for me. If someone from your Ye family can take care of this money, we can all rest assured, and I can give an explanation to the people."
Captain Qin frowned and looked at Ye Lin helplessly, obviously having been troubled by this problem for a long time.
Recently, several village cadres have been trying to find out, openly or secretly, when the money would be used to build the school, but Captain Qin calmly blocked their requests.
Although he knew that this group of people might not have any bad intentions, it did serve as a wake-up call to Captain Qin.
They might be worried that Captain Qin would embezzle the money. Captain Qin was afraid of being questioned and was also worried that someone would embezzle the money.
Captain Qin had no choice but to come to Ye Lin for advice today.
Ye Lin and Captain Qin walked to the end of the village, and the land in front of them was no longer Xiahe Village.
Along the way, Ye Lin understood what Captain Qin meant.
It is true that the temple is small but the evil spirits are strong.
The number of village cadres combined is less than the size of a palm, yet they can do so many weird things just for a few tens of thousands of dollars.
Captain Qin just said it simply, just a few words, but there must be something worse that he didn't dare to tell him.
"I understand what Uncle Qin said, but I can't decide on the right person for now. Let me think about it."
"Well, nephew Lin, you have to think carefully about finding a reliable accountant for our school."
Captain Qin waited until he had no other choice before coming to find Ye Lin.
The main reason was that he thought about the Ye family and couldn't think of anyone else who was reliable except Boss Ye.
The whole family is either made up of shrews or idiots. Only Old Man Ye has some brains, but he is very old. If he collapses on the construction site, he will be guilty of a serious crime.
Let's leave this difficult problem to Boss Ye.
Ye Lin thought about the Ye family in his mind and wondered who would be suitable to be the general manager of the construction site.
Excluding those who are going to Hong Kong, the only ones left are my third uncle and my third aunt.
Uncle San absolutely couldn't do that. If Ye Sanxing was to be in charge of the accounts, Ye Lin could tell with his knees that within three days the accounts would be full of holes, and he might even have to pay another two cents in compensation.
Jin Fenglian is quite smart, but unfortunately she is illiterate.
Ye Yang was around Bai Wei every day, and helping Bai Wei dig the ground was more important than anything else. Moreover, Ye Yang was a bit straightforward and was not suitable for dealing with people in a roundabout way at the construction site.
The Ye family is really smart.
For a moment, Ye Lin really couldn't think of who would be suitable for this job.
As they were talking, they had already reached the ditch.
There was a thick layer of ice on the river, and several children were skating on the river.
Captain Qin went over and shouted a few words, asking them to go somewhere else to play and be careful not to fall and get eaten by fish.
When the children saw the captain coming, they scattered and ran away in groups of three or four before he came over.
After Captain Qin had driven the children away, he climbed ashore holding onto a branch, clapped his hands, and cheerfully teased Ye Lin.
"Nephew Lin, you've never played this in Hong Kong, right? Don't look at me chasing these little chickens away. When I was a kid, I used to sneak into the ditch to play on the ice."
Watching the group of children who ran away and didn't forget to skate a few more times disappear into the woods.
Ye Lin said casually
"I played it indoors."
"Uncle Qin, where is the other side of the river?"
Captain Qin was wondering what indoors was.
"What's opposite? Oh, that's Qianshan Village. Behind their village is Qingyun Mountain in Qing County."
Qianshan Village?
Isn’t that my aunt’s family’s home?
Ye Lin suddenly thought of someone,
"Captain Qin, we have a candidate."
"What, who is it?"
Captain Qin rubbed his hands, feeling a little excited. In the blink of an eye, Boss Ye had figured it out. He was indeed a smart man.
Ye Linchong raised his chin slightly across the river.
"My cousin Zhao Jinguo."
