Chapter 169 Renovating the House



Hearing Tian Chengcheng's words, Fu Xinhan glanced at her indifferently without refuting.

Wang Nuo looked at the two of them and immediately said, "It doesn't matter. It's half of what I said. I'm satisfied with half."

"Cooperative business requires fairness, but it's just a recipe for preserved egg and lean meat porridge. Running a store requires deducting costs and other things. He doesn't help in the store, so at most he'll be given one-third, or even one-quarter."

Tian Chengcheng is simply principled.

I will not exploit, nor will I let Fu Xinhan exploit the fruits of others' labor.

"It's whatever you say." Fu Xinhan said. He didn't care about the amount of money, as long as Fubao was happy.

"Then one quarter." Tian Chengcheng said.

"How about one-third? One-third is already quite little." Wang Nuo quickly replied, "One-third of the net profit, is that okay?"

"Okay." Fu Xinhan nodded. "Get up early tomorrow and I'll teach you."

"Okay!" Wang Nuo agreed immediately.

The three of them packed up and just as they went out, they saw Zhang Youcai, who was already waiting outside on a tricycle.

Seeing the three people, he hurriedly greeted them, "Fubao, Hanhan, Wang Nuo, you are out."

The three looked at Zhang Youcai, a little confused. Tian Chengcheng asked, "...Brother Zhang, why are you here? Why don't you come to pick us up?"

"I go to bed early and get up early, so it's okay. I just happened to be here so I came over to give you a ride."

Zhang Youcai smiled, his dark face full of sincerity.

Tian Chengcheng's mouth twitched.

She believed his lies.

Just happened to have nothing to do and was able to transfer here? This excuse is too low.

However, she did not expose Zhang Youcai's white lie.

The three of them got on the tricycle. Zhang Youcai pedaled the tricycle with great strength and soon arrived at his home.

Tian Hengyuan had already arrived. The minibus coming from the countryside just happened to pass by the main road in front of Zhang's house. He got off directly, which was very convenient.

"Uncle, you're here." Tian Chengcheng greeted him and handed him the blueprint she had drawn last night. "Uncle, please take a look at this blueprint to see if there are any problems. If there are no problems, we will discuss it with the construction engineer and start construction according to this blueprint."

Tian Hengyuan took a look and was shocked.

"The painting is so good, Fubao, who did you learn this from?"

"I saw it drawn in a book. Aunt Wan often draws blueprints. She told me about drawing, so I drew a little bit. We have a general idea of the shape and we have an idea of it in our minds."

Tian Chengcheng made up an excuse casually.

Perhaps he was already used to it, so after hearing her words, Tian Hengyuan didn't think much about it.

"The painting is very good. We will discuss it directly with the decorator to see if it will be difficult for them to construct it. If it is not difficult, we will follow this."

Everyone agreed with the drawings drawn by Tian Chengcheng, and then Zhang Youcai called Lao Liu from the village construction team.

"Uncle Liu, this is Hengyuan. They're renting a house here. Can you discuss with them how to renovate it and how to build the south side?"

"Brother Liu, I'm going to trouble you from now on. This is our design. Please take a look and see if there are any difficulties. We can make some adjustments."

Tian Hengyuan handed over the drawing and while introducing it to Lao Liu, he took out a pen and prepared to write down the places where I needed to make changes.

Tian Chengcheng and Zhang Youcai went to see Zhang's mother to discuss the heating issue.

When Zhang's mother heard that she had to spend money again, her heart ached. She had finally managed to save some money, but after all this trouble, it probably wouldn't be enough.

"Fubao, the heating you mentioned sounds good, but it costs money after all. We have been doing this for years, and we can just endure the winter and it will pass. There is no need to do that thing anymore."

Mother Zhang hesitated for a moment and instinctively refused to turn on the heating.

"Aunt Zhang, your health is so poor, and the cold winter has a great impact on you. It doesn't cost much to build a set of pipes, but this house is really too old. If possible, consider renovating it."

Tian Chengcheng walked into the house and took a look at the situation inside.

This house must be decades or even hundreds of years old. The walls have peeled off in many places, and the wood on the roof is black and has many holes. When the wind blows in from outside, wood chips fall down.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a dangerous building.

"Building a new house is certainly a good thing, but you also know our family situation. We don't have money now. Why don't we wait until next year?" Zhang's mother rubbed her hands and still refused.

Tian Chengcheng thought for a moment and looked at Zhang Youcai.

"Brother Zhang, how much does it cost to renovate these four main rooms in your house?"

"I don't know the exact details, but my friend renovated his house last year. Together with the north and south rooms, it cost almost two thousand yuan. He already had some wood, so we saved some money. The workers were all our own." Zhang Youcai paused and said, "If we renovated our house, many people would come to help. Although we don't have to pay them, we definitely have to provide them with food."

"How long will it take?" Tian Chengcheng asked.

If it can be done in one go, she still hopes to do it in one go, so as to avoid the situation where the bun shop opens and then the backyard construction starts, which will have a certain impact on the business.

The key point is that living in this kind of old house makes you worried every day, and if something happens, it will be a matter of life and death.

"Now that the days are long, if I do a little more every day, it will be enough for a month."

Zhang Youcai felt warm in his heart.

If they don't have to pay for the renovation of the house on the south side, the ground and the rental house, it won't be a problem for him to build four brick houses with the more than 1,000 yuan in his hand. At least he can put up the framework first.

Of course, the prerequisite is to pay for my mother's medical treatment first, and then I can use the remaining money to build a house.

Zhang's mother was in a heavy mood. She also wanted to rebuild the house, but she had so little money that she felt anxious.

However, looking at her son's expectant eyes, she opened her mouth and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

When her son grows up, he will have the possibility of getting married only if the house is renovated. At worst, she can give up her treatment and renovate the house first to let her eldest son start a family.

"We can't wait too long. Let's hire more workers and see if we can build it within half a month. We also need to do the interior decoration as well as possible. Don't worry about the money. We need to rent the store anyway. If you don't have enough money, I can pay the rent for the next two years first."

After hearing what Tian Chengcheng said, Zhang's mother and son were so shocked that they didn't know what to do.

Paying one year's rent is already a lot, and you can also pay the rent for the next two years in advance! How much does that cost?

"Fubao, I'll listen to you. I'll find some more people to rebuild the north room. You can help us pay the difference first. From now on, as long as you rent the house, the rent will not increase." Zhang Youcai said.

Zhang's mother also said, "Okay, let's do as Youcai said. If you really want to lend us the money, we won't raise the rent in the future."
