52 -50: Ugly in Appearance, Beautiful in Thought
“Of course it’s true, paid daily in cash, just doesn’t include meals.” How tiring is it to cook?
She herself didn’t want to cook, let alone have the young girls work so hard.
The team leader immediately said, “That’s no problem, I’ll announce it with the loudspeaker in a moment.
When do you want to start?”
“Let’s start tomorrow!
Oh, and for stones and firewood, I’d like to request a batch from the team, I’ll pay for it.”
The team leader, hearing the word ‘money,’ immediately brightened up with a smile, “That’s no problem, the team has plenty of stones and wood.
How much do you need?”
“I want to renovate my house to have five rooms, not including the stone for the fence and the small kitchen.”
If it needed building, it had to be entirely new.
“Team leader, take a look and see how much you’ll charge.”
The team leader quickly calculated in his mind.
Actually, it wasn’t worth much.
After all, not much was needed, and Qin Ye’s house would provide quite a bit of stone and wood when taken apart.
“Just give me ten yuan.”
Rong Yan: …
Ten yuan?
The prices of this era were really astounding.
“Okay.”
She briskly took out two five-yuan notes from her pocket.
The team leader was over the moon, as this would also bring in additional income for the village.
“I’ll announce it with the loudspeaker later and then have people deliver the timber and stones to your place.
“Can it be done before the new year?” Rong Yan was most concerned about this.
Right now, she just wanted a room for each person with a warm kang bed.
She could forego a bathroom for now, as long as the rooms were private enough.
She could wash in the space every day; the two-hour restriction was more than enough.
The team leader immediately assured her,
“No problem, I’ll have them call in more people to ensure it’s done before New Year’s.”
For Qin Ye’s old house, demolition and reconstruction wouldn’t take much time with enough hands; it could be done in a few days.
“That’s settled then.
Team leader, find someone to lead the work, someone who can manage the people.
I’ll pay the leader one yuan a day.”
Why not, for an extra twenty cents and less hassle?
When the team leader heard this, he already had someone in mind.
Actually, he wanted to take the job himself, but recently he had been rather busy.
“That’s settled.
Qin Ye’s Wife, you have a good head on your shoulders.
I’d recommend my eldest son.
With him in charge, I guarantee no one will slack off.”
Rong Yan had no objections, “Alright, that’s the deal then.
Team leader, I’ll be leaving now.”
The team leader, all smiles, replied, “Take care.”
His eldest son had been idling at home recently, almost rotting away.
If he could earn one yuan a day until the New Year, he could make quite a good sum.
This was indeed a great opportunity.
Remembering the cigarette in his hand, he picked it up, sniffed it, and clicked his tongue in appreciation.
Red Plum Cigarettes really were different, fragrant.
He turned and went back into the yard.
“Can we really trust what Qin Ye’s Wife just said?
Will she actually pay?” Huang Cuihua had heard earlier but hadn’t gone out.
“Of course it’s true.
She definitely has money.
If not, there’s still that bicycle, right?” The team leader was unfazed by the matter of money.
From how Qin Ye’s Wife had casually taken out ten yuan, not to mention this Red Plum Cigarette.
It was clear she was not short on cash.
