"Avalokitesvara pendant for sale."
This time, Zhang Xiangnan brought back more than a dozen pieces of jade. In addition to the two bracelets, the three brothers and sisters could each share three or four pieces.
The last time the system was upgraded, the number of gold coins exceeded one million. This time it exceeded ten million, so maybe we can upgrade it even more.
[For sale: a glass-type imperial green jadeite Guanyin pendant, priced at 20 million gold coins.]
[Current balance: Gold coins.]
[Upgrade conditions are met. Do you want to spend 10 million gold coins to upgrade the system? ]
Zhang Shuguang’s guess turned out to be correct. The amount of gold coins exceeded 10 million, and the system underwent another upgrade.
"yes."
Looking at the progress bar of the system upgrade, Zhang Shuguang smiled with satisfaction.
…
The next morning, the members were not in a very good mood. They were all sleepy and obviously did not get enough rest last night.
"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Nonsense! I've been smelling this fragrance for most of the night and I can't sleep no matter how hard I try!"
"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I hadn't planned on eating tonight, but by ten o'clock I couldn't stand it any longer, so I got up and made some cornmeal porridge."
"What a sin!"
…
The members of the cooperative were complaining one by one, but no one dared to express dissatisfaction with Zhang Shuguang's family, not even to mention their names.
"The captain is here."
"Why did Xiangnan come along?"
Next to Zhang Xiangyang, Zhang Xiangnan, wearing a military uniform, is extremely conspicuous.
"Comrades, Xiangnan's family is building a house and needs forty workers. Each worker will be paid fifty cents a day. If you don't want money, Xiangnan can take one pound of fine grain or two pounds of coarse grain as compensation.
In order to complete the work as quickly as possible, Xiangnan will also provide lunch for everyone.
Xiang Qian has worked as a bricklayer for many years, so this job is now yours. You must not only ensure the construction progress, but also the quality of the work, and be worthy of the generous salary offered by Xiang Nanlai."
As soon as Zhang Xiangyang finished speaking, the surrounding area exploded.
"Captain, I've also worked as a bricklayer, and my skills are no less than Xiang Qian's. Can I go and build a house for Xiang Nan?"
"Captain, I'm very strong. I can do the work of five skilled workers carrying mortar and bricks by myself."
"Captain, my father and I have worked in the forest farm before, so leave the felling of trees in the mountains to us."
"Captain, we have many children and our family is in great difficulty. Can you give us a place?"
"Captain, the adobe bricks I make are of high quality. Everyone in the surrounding villages knows about them."
…
For a moment, everyone was in high spirits and signed up enthusiastically.
Zhang Xiangyang and Zhang Xiangnan were instantly surrounded tightly.
"Quiet down, stop yelling. I'll call the roll. Whoever I call, stand next to Xiang Qian. Let's dig the foundation today. Once the bricks, tiles, and cement are delivered, we can start working right away."
Having been the team leader for many years, Zhang Xiangyang knows everything about everyone.
Among the forty people, Zhang Xiangyang selected those who were efficient in their work and never slacked off.
Those who were chosen were overjoyed, and those who were not chosen were dejected.
"Xiangnan, can I..."
"No, Zhang Xiangdong, your family is working in a sly way, and everyone in the village doesn't know about it.
Also, since you've already severed ties, don't move forward now to avoid embarrassment for everyone.
The path we took was chosen by ourselves, and everyone must take responsibility for their own choices."
Without waiting for Zhang Xiangnan to speak, Zhang Xiangyang simply rejected him.
If Xiangnan were to speak, some people would probably say that he is cold-hearted and does things without leaving any room for others.
He didn't want to damage his brother's reputation, so as the team leader, he directly refused on Zhang Xiangnan's behalf.
"Xiangnan, I really know I was wrong. I haven't been able to sleep all night lately. I've been regretting it all the time and suffering from the torment of my conscience.
Second brother, please give me another chance to be with my parents and fulfill my filial duties. I will definitely honor them and make up for the mistakes I made."
Zhang Xiangdong burst into tears and beat his chest and stamped his feet.
He knew that his brother valued family affection and hoped to move him with tears of repentance.
But this time he obviously miscalculated, and his tears did not move Zhang Xiangnan.
"Brother Xiangyang, you make the arrangements. I'll go back first."
Zhang Xiangnan turned around and left without even giving Zhang Xiangdong a glance.
"Don't cry, Xiangnan has already gone far away, who are you crying for?"
"Now you're thinking of fulfilling your filial duties, but what have you done before? You were instigating everyone to raid Second Uncle's house, and it's only been a few days!"
"If you say you regret it, I believe it. After all, Brother Xiangnan has returned. But if you say your conscience is condemned, I don't believe it. How can someone like you still have a heart?"
"Yeah! He regrets not being able to take advantage."
…
Although Zhang Xiangnan had left, it did not affect everyone's attack on Zhang Xiangdong.
"Okay! Don't waste your time on this kind of person, Uncle Deyou. Take twelve people, grab some tools, and go to the mountain to cut down trees.
A total of three courtyards will be built facing south, each with three main rooms, three auxiliary rooms, and a kitchen. You can calculate how many beams and purlins are needed.
Go forward, take the rest of the people and go to Xiangnan's house to dig the foundation first. When the materials arrive, set up the lines and start building the house.
Sulan, take Yingying, Li Erhua, and Gao Fei and the other two sisters-in-law to set up a kitchen and cook."
After arranging everything about building the house, Zhang Xiangyang began to arrange today's work in the fields.
Dozens of people who were called went to collect their tools happily, but the rest were obviously not in a good mood.
I get a meal at noon and a pound of fine grain a day. How come such a good job didn't fall on me?
