Chapter 63 Selecting a Homestead



"Comrade Yang Baiyi, take the badger back. As the team leader, it's my job to grant housing plots to the members. How can I accept your things?"

Chen Baiwang was very happy to be praised by Yang Baiyi.

Although he didn't understand the meaning of the last two sentences, he still understood the phrase "a good cadre who is dedicated to serving the people."

"Captain, it's just a bite of food, it doesn't count as a gift!

Besides, I caught this in the wilderness, I didn’t buy it, so I’ll leave it for the kids to try.”

Yang Baiyi stood up and left without giving Chen Baiwang a chance to refuse.

"This kid is capable and good at handling things."

Watching Yang Baiyi disappear into the night, Chen Baiwang shook his head and smiled.

"His father, what about this hog badger?"

Wang Hui asked tentatively.

"Take it to the kitchen and clean it up. Call mom and dad over tomorrow when it's ready."

Chen Baiwang waved his hand.

"Yeah! His father, I'll go clean it up right away."

Wang Hui picked up the wild boar and turned to go to the kitchen. The kerosene lamp that had just been extinguished in the kitchen lit up again.

Just now, Wang Hui was planning to take a break and then go to the river to take a bath.

Now that we have wild hogs, why bother taking a bath? If you don't take a bath for a day, you'll stink. Nothing is more important than eating meat.

"Mom, we're back from taking a shower. Huh? Why are you still in the kitchen?"

"Brother, it's a wild boar. We now have meat to eat."

Da Hu and Er Hu came back from taking a shower. As soon as they entered the kitchen, they saw Wang Hui cutting up a wild boar.

"You idiot, keep your voice down. Are you afraid others won't hear you?"

Wang Hui cursed under her breath.

"Mom, where did this wild hog come from? It's so fat!"

Da Hu lowered his voice and asked in a low voice.

"Do you know that educated youth who can hunt? He was the one who sent us here."

Wang Hui couldn't hide the smile in her voice.

"Of course I know, it was Comrade Yang Baiyi, he was the one who killed the stupid roe deer a few days ago.

Aren't small prey items supposed to be handed in? Why doesn't he keep it for himself? This hog badger must weigh at least ten pounds, right?

Dahu was very surprised.

In this age where adults can’t even afford to eat meat, there are still people who are so generous.

"Comrade Yang Baiyi wanted to get a housing plot, so he came to your father for help and brought a wild boar with him."

Wang Hui's heart was filled with pride and she was very satisfied with her own vision.

At that time, Chen Baiwang's family was very poor. Because she saw that he was good-looking and hardworking, she married this poor boy.

Who knew he could become the captain! If my man wasn't the captain, I'm afraid this hog badger wouldn't be my turn.

The next day after work, Yang Baiyi saw Chen Baiwang on the road.

"Captain."

Yang Baiyi stepped forward and greeted him.

"Come with me now and take a look."

Chen Baiwang appeared here, waiting for Yang Baiyi.

"Okay, thank you, Captain."

He let Xiaoxiao go back with Lin Wanru first, while he followed the team leader to see the homestead.

The two walked one in front and one behind, all the way to the westernmost end of the village, near the creek.

"Comrade Yang Baiyi, what do you think of this place? There are mountains and water, and other than being a little off the beaten path, there's nothing wrong with it."

The captain pointed toward the open space by the river.

"Captain, has this river ever flooded before?"

Yang Baiyi didn't have any requirements for the location, but if it was too close to the river, Yang Baiyi was afraid of being washed away by the water.

"No, there is no water source in the upper reaches of this stream, it's all spring water from the mountains.

It's summer now, the rainiest season, and yet the river hasn't risen at all."

The captain's words relieved Yang Baiyi's worries.

"Captain, let's go here."

Since the safety hazards have been eliminated, Yang Baiyi immediately decided to settle down and build a house here.

"Okay, when do you plan to build the house? If you plan to build an adobe house, our members can do it.

If you want to build a blue brick house, I will write you a note and you can go to the Qingshan Town Brick and Tile Factory to buy bricks and tiles.

There's no need to buy beams and purlins. There's plenty of wood in the mountains, so we can just chop it down and use it."

Chen Baiwang thought of everything for him, no matter how big or small the problem was, including building a house.

"Captain, thank you so much, I plan to build a blue brick house.

Also, I know nothing about building a house. Is there a professional construction team nearby? I plan to leave everything to them. "

Yang Baiyi would not act like an amateur guiding professionals. He would just state the general requirements and leave the rest to the people building the house.

"My second brother is a good house builder. He works during the busy farming season and leads others to build houses during the slack season.

I recommended him not because he is my second brother, but you can ask around, my second brother is famous for building houses."

Chen Baiwang said.

"Captain, how can I not trust you? Then leave it to your second brother.

With an elder brother like you, your second younger brother will probably be a good person as well, so I feel at ease leaving him to him.

Captain, could you please excuse me? I don't know where your second brother lives!"

Yang Baiyi said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Chen Baiwang agreed without hesitation.

Chen Baiwang looked at Yang Baiyi with more and more satisfaction.

Not all kids in the city act arrogant and give people a sense of superiority. There are also kids like Yang Baiyi who speak politely.

The way Yang Baiyi speaks makes people feel so comfortable.

"Captain, please wait for me."

When passing by the sales outlet, Yang Baiyi also weighed some candy for the children of Chen Baiwang's brother.
