Siheyuan: Xu Damao wakes up in the world

Chapter 44: I have to take my father-in-law’s money as I should

Xu Damao didn't go to work and went directly back to the courtyard. He found that Master An moved very quickly. In just one noon, Master An got a lot of bricks and a door, and started building them with his two apprentices. wall.

It’s true that cats have their own way, and mice have their own way.

It would be difficult for Xu Damao to get so many bricks in such a short period of time. After all, this is an era where everyone votes.

Xu Damao doesn't care where Master An got it from or how much it cost, he just wants it to be fast!

"Leader Xu, are you back?" Master An said hello while building brick walls.

"Master An, this speed is good. Work harder and try to finish it as soon as possible. You are busy, I will go back to the house first." After Xu Damao finished speaking, he went back to the house, and then thought carefully about how to decorate the house.

Xu Damao thought for a long time and found that he was thinking in vain. At this time, being too public was just seeking death, and simplicity was the main priority. The only thing to do is to clean the house first, then apply putty, and then lay the floor tiles.

As for the floor tiles, Xu Damao is not so bold as to lay them with gold bricks. That thing is too eye-catching, so he can just lay ordinary floor tiles. As for the furniture, Xu Damao does not intend to buy it.

With a cheap father-in-law like Lou Bancheng, why do you still need to buy furniture? Just pull it from his home. He will run away sooner or later anyway. It is better to benefit yourself than to benefit others.

Besides, there are only two of them in the Lou family, so they don’t need so much furniture, so they might as well support themselves.

Xu Damao drooled with excitement when he thought of the furniture in his father-in-law's house.

After Xu Damao considered the furniture, he also considered water diversion. Under the current conditions, he could only introduce a tap water pipe to his kitchen and connect it to the sewer.

If you want to install a toilet and don't have to queue up to go to the toilet, don't even think about it. The problem of sewerage cannot be solved. At most, it can only solve the problem of urination and bathing.

This is the limitation of this time period.

The water problem is solved, and the final step is to install the earth heater.

Xu Damao then told Master An his thoughts, and Master An thought about it and said it was okay.

There are sewers in the courtyard. How can we install water pipes without sewers? How to drain the running water from the tap pipe?

The fact is as Xu Damao thought. The sewers in the courtyard can only discharge the water flowing out of the water pipes. If you install a toilet seat to solve the problem of defecation, it is simply impossible and will cause blockage.

If there is a blockage in the summer, hey, the smell will be terrible; or if it rains and the blockage is caused, the smell will be even worse!

Xu Damao naturally gave up on this idea. Xu Damao was very satisfied if he could solve the problems of urinating and bathing.

Master An calculated an account for Xu Damao. According to what Xu Damao did, including materials and labor, two hundred yuan would be enough.

"I'll give you two hundred and ten yuan. Before the workers get off work, they must build the wall, install the door, and lock it." Xu Damao said and gave the money on the spot.

Xu Damao was really not afraid that they would not be able to do the job well or run away with the money. In this era, it was difficult to move forward without a letter of introduction. Besides, this Master An is a proud figure in the world, how could he run away for these 210 yuan.

"Boss Xu is so refreshing!" Master An said with a thumbs up.

"Just do the job well." After Xu Damao said that, he went to Lou Xiao'e's house.

"Da Mao, here you go, come to my study first." Father Lou took the initiative to greet Xu Damao, which was rare, and invited Xu Damao to the study.

"It seems that the song "The Sun is Reddest and Dearest" has been verified by me, a cheap father-in-law, and proved to be original, so he took such initiative." Xu Damao thought to himself.

"I'm going to use all my strength to push this matter forward, what do you think?" Lou's father knocked on the table and said.

It seems that Father Lou has been suppressed too hard during this period, so much so that he is in a state of panic and everything is at war. Father Lou's heart is in chaos.

"It's not necessary. Just spend a little money to report it in the newspaper, and then find an opportunity to sing in a place like the Cultural Palace. This is not for the world to see, but for the people above. , as long as the people above see it and know about it, that's fine." Xu Damao said.

Father Lou was stunned when he heard this. He also felt that he was so excited that he was confused. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Yes, yes, you are right. It's okay if the higher ups know."

"Father-in-law, don't overestimate the power of this song, and don't be happy too early. This song can only guarantee temporary security, but it cannot guarantee a lifetime of security. You need to prepare in advance." Xu Damao finished speaking. Say no more.

It's not that Xu Damao has a superficial friendship, but that Lou's father has his own judgment and has always looked down on Xu Damao. It's not appropriate to say too much at this time, and it's impossible to talk to Lou's father all at once. Only by taking it step by step can things come naturally.

After hearing this, Father Lou frowned and thought hard. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. Finally, Father Lou decided to take it one step at a time. As for making preparations in advance, Father Lou thought. It's better to be prepared. At worst, it will be a waste of effort. Count the money. Is Mr. Lou the one who is short of money?

"Da Mao, are you here for something at this time?" Father Lou suddenly asked.

"Yes, I took over the two miscellaneous rooms in the backyard and plan to connect my current home with the west wing and build a wall to form an independent small courtyard. Everything else is easy to say, except that the furniture is a bit lacking, so So I asked my father-in-law for some furniture." Xu Damao said.

"I have no shortage of furniture here. Take whatever you like. By the way, do you have enough money in your hand? Do you need some from me?" Father Lou asked.

"The money in my hand is really not enough! Then I'll get some from you." Xu Damao naturally asked for it without any politeness.

If it were the former Xu Damao, he would definitely pretend to be evasive. Even if Lou Bancheng really gave it, Xu Damao would not take it to show his integrity.

Now, Xu Damao doesn't want it for nothing.

Instead of being angry, Father Lou was very happy.

In Lou's father's view, the more this happens, the more real Xu Damao appears, and the more it proves that Xu Damao does not regard the Lou family as an outsider.

Moreover, now that Xu Damao has made progress and become more capable, it is worth investing in him. As a businessman, it is natural to seek profits and avoid disadvantages, and it is also natural to invest in potential stocks.

Lou's father happily gave Xu Damao a handbag, which contained not only five thousand yuan, but also various tickets.

"It's true that ten years of hard study is not as good as three generations of business. A mid-level technician in a steel rolling mill can't save so much money even if he works for ten years. Now, my cheap father-in-law has given it to me without blinking an eye." Xu Damao sighed in his heart. road.

Xu Damao then thought about it. His cheap father-in-law was called Lou Bancheng. To him, this little money was like a drop in the bucket.

When he thought of this, Xu Damao accepted it instantly with peace of mind.

"You go ahead, I'll wait in the study for a while." Father Lou waved his hand to signal Xu Damao to leave.

After Xu Damao left, he went to Lou Xiao'e to study Kun Zi Jue and told what happened in the courtyard. When Lou Xiao'e heard the news that Xu Damao was going to establish an independent hospital, she had to go back and take a look.

Xu Damao could only say that he would go back after the decoration was completed.

Lou Xiao'e is a standard silly girl, her biggest weakness. As long as Lou Xiao'e stays in the courtyard, the beasts in the courtyard will use this as a breakthrough.

Xu Damao asked Lou Xiao'e to stay at Lou's house and not go back to the courtyard if nothing happened, and not to go back to the courtyard if there was anything.

"Really, Damao, you are so kind." Lou Xiao'e said excitedly.

Of course Lou Xiao'e doesn't like staying in the courtyard.

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Not to mention anything else, just bathing and defecation problems give Lou Xiaoe a headache. Lou Xiaoe is naturally very happy when she hears that she can come back to live.

However, Lou Xiao'e also has a condition, that is, as long as Xu Damao is fine, he must come to Lou's house to spend the night.

Xu Damao readily agreed and solved the problem of weakness. Xu Damao rode his bicycle to the home of his biological parents.

"Da Mao, why are you here?" Xu's mother asked strangely.
