Li Chen and Liu Yunxiao found the team leader and told him they were leaving. He sighed, "Even though you guys haven't been here long, to be honest, I'm really reluctant to see you leave so suddenly."
Of course he couldn't bear to do that.
Li Chen and his companions came here and often gave him gifts. But after the people left, where could he go to receive the gifts?
But I have to say, these gifts are well worth it, and he really takes good care of them.
Liu Yunxiao smiled and responded, "Captain, two months ago we came to you and told you that Xiong Xue wouldn't be working this year. Did you not expect this day to come?"
"I thought of it, but I didn't expect you guys to leave together."
Captain Ge was not lying, he really didn't expect it.
He knew that the three of them had met Xiong Xue on their way here, and he also knew that Liu Yunxiao and Liu Yunqin were cousins.
What kind of family conditions are needed to get work quotas for three people at once?
So at that time he thought that at least one of the Liu brothers must be left behind.
According to common sense, he was right.
But he didn't know that Liu Yunxiao already had a job before coming here, and the Liu family only needed to get two indicators.
What they didn't know was that the Liu family believed Li Xu's judgment that it wouldn't take long for the people who went to the countryside to return to the city, so they had been preparing for this matter for a long time.
Li Chen smiled and said, "We came here together, so of course we should leave together. Captain, before we leave, we'd like to invite you and Brother Ge to dinner. When are you free?"
The captain waved his hand and said, "I've given you enough to eat on a regular basis. Now that you're leaving, I can't let you treat me again. Come to my house tonight and I'll treat you."
Hearing him say this, Li Chen did not refuse anymore and agreed directly, and then talked about the donkey cart and selling the kiln.
After listening, the team leader pondered and said, "Donkey carts are no problem. I'll arrange it later. But selling the kilns and water cellars is a bit difficult."
"Ah?" Li Chen and the others were stunned. "Difficult?"
"Yes, you spent so much money to build the stone cave and water cellar, and there are furniture and daily necessities in the stone cave. Even if you make it cheap, it will cost 400 yuan in total. Few people in our team can afford this amount.
Even if it can be produced, it is impossible to make a decision in a short time, and you may not be able to wait until that time."
It cost four hundred and twenty yuan to build the stone kiln and water cellar, and more than one hundred yuan to buy furniture and daily necessities. Although everything has been used, Li Chen and his friends have been here for less than two and a half years, and many items are as good as new.
Just like the captain said, even if it’s cheap, it’ll be at least four hundred yuan.
To be honest, this price is very disadvantageous, but I didn’t expect that it would not be sold for a while.
Li Chen pondered for a moment, "What do you think of three hundred?"
Hearing this number, the captain's eyes almost popped out, with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Are you willing to give it?"
"We're willing to give it up. Like you said, we can't stay here for two days. We just want to get rid of it as soon as possible. The more we can save, the better."
He knew very well that the news that he and others were about to leave would spread quickly.
Even if someone buys it, the price will be kept very low.
Instead of doing this, it is better to lower the price yourself.
It's better than having it broken in your hands and belonging to the team in the end.
Besides, when they spent the money, they had anticipated that this day would come, so they were prepared to lose money.
Others don’t know what is inside these two stone kilns, but Captain Ge knows.
If you buy it for three hundred dollars, you will definitely make a profit whether you live in it yourself or sell it.
To prevent this great bargain from being snatched away by others, the captain immediately said, "I'll take this price. Even if I have to borrow money today, I will make up the money and give it to you."
Hearing him say that, Li Chen's face darkened. "You said that before, weren't you trying to force me to lower the price so that you can buy it yourself?"
Liu Yunxiao echoed, "Captain, if you really think so, that's really unkind."
The captain glanced at them and said unhappily, "Do I need to take you to my house so I can reveal my wealth to you? I don't mind you laughing at me, as I only have so little money. Before, I didn't even dare to think about buying it.
But I didn't expect you to be so willing to sell it for only three hundred yuan. That's when I had the idea. Of course, I don't deny that I did want to take advantage of it, but doing so will also benefit you. If I don't buy it, no one else will buy it either. Do you have to lower the price?
Besides, you've been here for more than two years. Don't you know the situation here? Do you think I was forcing you?"
He really had no intention of buying it before.
To be honest, when he saw Li Chen was so willing to spend so much, he even thought of dragging a few people over and forcing them to continue lowering the price.
But later I gave up the idea.
For no other reason, he felt that doing so would make his conscience feel bad.
I have received so many gifts from them in the past two years. If I were to cheat them on this matter, it would be too inhumane.
Li Chen and the others certainly knew that what the captain said before was the truth, and he just said it casually. Now that they saw that he said it frankly, they had even less thoughts in their minds.
After chatting for a few more words, the two left first.
When he returned to his residence, he saw four tied cloth bags on the ground. Li Chen told the captain about his dinner invitation in the evening. In order to avoid running out of time, he finally decided to deliver food to the group closest to him first, and deliver the rest tomorrow.
Not long after, the team leader's son Ge Shui came driving a donkey cart.
The four of them greeted him, picked up a bag of grain and put it on the donkey cart, and let Xiong Xue sit on it with her arms around the child.
