Chapter 204 Closer than Brothers (2/2)



"Xiaoyu, what are you busy with?" It was time for dinner and Song went out of the house on time.

"Dad and the village chief are drinking in the yard." How could I not see so many people?

"In the yard?" Why didn't she notice it. "Let me take care of this. What are we three going to eat tonight?"

"I'll cook a few rice dumplings and make a bowl of soup."

It was hot, and she didn't really want to eat greasy food.

"Okay, let's fry two more light dishes. Xiaoyu, let's make dumplings tomorrow. It's so hot, I don't feel like eating rice at all."

"Okay, let's make pork and green onion stuffing."

It's expected to rain today, and it's hot and stuffy. Zhao Xiaoyu looked up at the sky, seeing the dark clouds, and felt very depressed.

Liu Shunzi sat in the yard, looking at the sky, feeling a little restless.

"Village Chief, Dashu, is it going to rain heavily today?"

"It's possible. Have you bought the oilcloth?"

Once it rains, the house will be destroyed, but the unused sand and gravel will be washed away by the rain.

"I've bought it. Let's go. Let's cover it with sand and stones first, otherwise I won't be able to eat." Liu Shunzi felt that he wouldn't be able to eat without the rain cloth.

"Let's go, it's not hard."

Everyone at the table stood up and went to the construction site. Zhao Dashu looked up at the sky. Well, let’s drink this wine later.

Several people went to the construction site, covered the house and unused sand and gravel with tarpaulin, and weighed down the tarpaulin with stones. They looked around and made sure there was no problem before leaving.

Sand and gravel are all bought, and when rain washes them away they become money.

At the wine table.

"Village Chief, your house will start construction in a few days. How big do you plan to build it?"

The village chief patted his head in disapproval and said, "I have a large family. In two years, my grandchildren will come out one after another. I plan to build a bigger house so that there won't be too much room."

Liu Shunzi was surprised, "How big is bigger?"

"It's about the same as Dashu's."

sure! The village chief really does his job silently. His house consists of eight brick and tile houses, but he is already very satisfied.

"What about you?"

"We are just like you. Eight tiled houses are enough."

"Once the house is built and everyone is settled, we can focus on making money. We can earn money from building the house."

Everyone looked at Zhao Dashu with sharp eyes, "What's the solution?"

"Aren't you picking river gourds?"

Several people looked at each other, they didn't expect that they could still pick up the bamboo shoots. The bamboo shoots were gone last year, so they thought this thing was gone too. To be honest, they will be grateful to Zhao Dashu for the rest of their lives for just how much they can earn in one year.

Last year, we picked up those things for two months, and every family had a hundred or so taels of them.

A hundred or so taels, who would dare to think about it? I didn’t expect it to be here this year. I’ve made a fortune. This is the right place to build my home!

It’s better to pick them up earlier this year. Since you have picked them up last year, you will know where there are more and you can definitely pick up more than last year.

I dare not imagine how much money I can earn in a year. Everyone looked at Zhao Dashu as if he were a glowing gold ingot. If the occasion wasn't wrong, Liu Shunzi would have wanted to hug Zhao Dashu and walk around in circles.

"Big tree, are there still river gourds this year?" The village chief always felt like he was dreaming.

Zhao Dashu nodded, "Yes, you must keep it secret. If people find out, no one will make any money."

Everyone nodded vigorously, "We know we are powerful, but we are keeping our mouths shut. Otherwise, why do you think we all live next to you? It's because there are too many people in the village, and living here is quiet and convenient for delivering goods."

Oh my god, it turns out these people built these houses with a purpose. They are all so cunning.

"Once we earn some money, you guys will be responsible for paying for the wine next winter!"

"I must!"

How much silver did it cost to drink and eat meat? How much did Dashu earn with them? People cannot be so heartless. Ren Dashu didn't even take the two brothers of the Zhao family with him to make money.

I am closer to them than my own brothers!

After three rounds of drinks, it started to rain. Raindrops were pouring down and everyone hid in the house. In just a moment, the big raindrops turned into a big curtain of water.
