The restart of wealth-gathering life
Chapter 274 Taste of Life
In this house, apart from having time to take care of the flowers and trees, the yard should not be deserted.For the rest, Lin Yutong and fourth master didn't move at all.The old lady took a lot of things away, but kept more.Lin Yutong didn't touch anything, and usually covered it with a cloth, so it didn't matter if it was called dust.To the outside world, they didn't even advertise that the house was theirs, and others only thought it was taking care of it.
Lin Yutong didn't intend to replace this house with Jiang's old house. Its nature is different.If you want to change, you can buy other things, but this one is not enough.
The fourth aunt would definitely know the people who often come in and out here.She likes the big fireplace here so much, and the furniture here is ready-made, all matching.It's always a little old, but it's cherished for people to live in, and it doesn't look shabby.She had already thought about it, like a sofa...you can put a new cover on it, isn't this just like the letter?
She told Lin Yutong, "We move here in winter, and we can save coal."
That won't work!Without the permission of the old lady, nothing can be moved inside.
The fourth aunt was angry, "Why are you so determined? The old lady is not here."
No way!
Because of this, the fourth aunt had a little unpleasant talk with Lin Yutong.
For several years, Lin Yutong really didn't touch anything in the house, only the flowers and plants in the yard.Such days lasted until [-], when Lin Yutong received a telegram that old lady Bai passed away.
In the late autumn of [-], Lin Yutong and the fourth master went to the south to hold a funeral for the old lady.The old lady walked away very peacefully, free from illness and disaster, got up early and took out the cheongsam that Lin Yutong had sent her, and she, who had been reluctant to part with her upper body, put it on neatly.Then he put on the pearl ring, emerald table, tourmaline earrings, and gold necklace for himself, and took out the high-heeled shoes that had been kept in the closet.She even put on light makeup for herself in front of the mirror, and then made breakfast in a good mood.For breakfast, I made homemade sandwiches with fried eggs. For lunch, I took the old man out to eat. When I came back at night, I ate candlelight dinner, steak and red wine.She was in a good mood. After eating, she took a walk for half an hour accompanied by the old man, and came back to lie on the couch. The old records were still babbling and singing her favorite old tunes... She closed her eyes tightly and smiled. , but never opened his eyes again.
She wore the clothes she picked out by herself, and she didn't change her clothes when she was gone.When Lin Yutong and fourth master arrived, she lay there decently.The old man covered her face with a clean white veil with his own hands, "Go slowly, wait for me, don't hurry, I will find you soon..."
The old man was diagnosed with esophageal cancer at the beginning of the year, and he forbade anyone to tell the old lady.His nephew wanted to take him to the United States for medical treatment, but he gave up.He felt that instead of living with trepidation, it is better to accompany the person who should be accompanied when he can still move, "She has waited for me for 30 years, but I have only been with her for three years. I thought I would walk in front of her, but I didn't." Thinking of this time...it's her turn to leave without saying goodbye."
And this time, I won't keep her waiting so long.
The old man relied on his faith to hold on, but as soon as the old lady left, the funeral took three days to finish, and the old man collapsed and lay in the hospital without a drop of water.His family rushed back from abroad, but so what?Gods can't save people who want to die.Before Lin Yutong left, he went to see the old man, and he knew what was going on. If it went on like this, it would be difficult to survive a month.
She and fourth master bought a cemetery in the planned cemetery here and placed the ashes of the old lady.Later, I discussed with the old man's nephew whether to consider burying the two old people together in the future.The other party was very happy, "Falling leaves return to their roots, this is my uncle's choice, let's follow his wishes."
Lin Yutong and Fourth Master didn't care about it, they just mentioned the location of the cemetery, so they didn't need to attend the old man's funeral.
The old lady left, according to the old rules, the clothes, shoes, socks and other belongings had to be taken with her and burned for the old man.Only then did Lin Yutong move the things in the house, and the things that should be burned were burned at the crossroads outside the city.But she still didn't want to do anything else, and wait until the old lady passed the anniversary.
This time, I came here with fourth master and wrapped some delicate flowers and plants in plastic, fearing that they would be frozen in the winter.The two were busy in the yard when the fourth aunt came in, her footsteps hurried, "Tongtong, Yuanmin."
Fourth master didn't like to talk to this aunt, so he told Tongtong to just go.
Lin Yutong stood up, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
The fourth aunt took out a gold bar from her pocket, which should have been given to Xia Wenmao by Xia Jiumo when the family was separated.Because the old house of the Xia family was given to the eldest son, the second son got a gold bar, and each of the two daughters got a gold brick.
I heard the little fourth aunt say, "Last time, Yuanmin and a young man were cleaning up the yard here. I passed by and heard the two talking about foreign exchange in the yard..." She stretched her head and talked to the fourth master, "Yuanmin, you Please exchange this gold bar for dollars.”
It means not doing bank transactions.
Fourth Master stopped what he was doing, "Why are you exchanging that? This thing always fluctuates up and down, so you can keep the gold in your hand..."
"No!" The fourth aunt was anxious, bypassing Lin Yutong and squatting next to the fourth master, "Isn't my natal nephew going abroad? How can I rest assured at home if I don't bring money when I go out?"
Nowadays, those sent out by the public don't spend much money.The channel for studying abroad at their own expense has not yet been opened, so if you want to go abroad, you don't need to bring so much.
The fourth master first agreed, "I'll do it later. When it's done, send it home."
to make!
The fourth master went to Yang Jianguo. If he didn't do well at work, he wasted the foreign exchange.Before changing, he had to ask Xia Wenmao to see if he knew about it.As a result, Xia Wenmao was stunned when he asked, "Exchange foreign currency?"
right!Xia Wenmao was originally engaged in foreign trade, so it was actually more convenient for him to exchange foreign currency.
Fourth master guessed that Xia Wenmao probably didn't know, and sure enough, the other party held the phone in a daze for half a minute.It was the secretary who urged to call for a meeting, so he held the phone and gave a vague 'hmm', "This matter is not urgent...I will tell you in detail later."
It means not to change.
Fourth Master said, "Leave the things here first?"
"Come over at noon. Our unit has a restaurant in front of us. Let's have a meal in the restaurant. If Tongtong comes, call Tongtong too. It's okay, it's a family matter."
Then at noon, the two of them were waiting at the door of Xia Wenmao's unit. He got off work on time and walked in a hurry.In the past few years, Xia Wenmao has developed well, and he has a bit of official authority.This time he frowned, and when he saw the two, he showed a smile and took them into the jar.
Now the restaurant as a whole is very rough.But Xia Wenmao was familiar with the boss, so he took the two of them to the backyard.It can be seen that this place was originally a house, but the front has been changed to a front door.There was a table in the back yard, and the three of them sat down. Xia Wenmao didn't need to order, and the proprietress quickly served two cold dishes.
Xia Wenmao stuffed a peanut into his mouth, with a look of boredom between his brows.After chewing a bean for a long time, he said, "I want to discuss something with you."
Fourth Master poured tea for Xia Wenmao, "Say it."
The other party looked at Fourth Master, "Yuanmin, tell uncle how much money you can give."
The fourth master looked at Tongtong, and Tongtong immediately said, "Uncle, you want to use money to talk to you. Don't care how much you want, we can find a way to get it for you."
Xia Wenmao waved his hand, but he was very upset in his heart, "How can I use money?" He then smiled wryly, "Your aunt only knows that her nephew needs to exchange foreign exchange when she goes abroad, but she doesn't know at all, and her brother has no plans." Tell my son to come back. So, this time, I plan to settle down in the United States."
For An Jia - one gold bar is really not enough.
"My father-in-law came to me and borrowed money from me." Xia Wenmao's smile became even more bitter, "I didn't say anything clearly, but it meant that I wanted to pay for your grandparents' money."
Want to borrow Jiang Yingxue's capital to support his grandson to go abroad?Doesn't make sense?
Lin Yutong knew what Xia Wenmao was in trouble for.If you say that the Xia family has no money, no one will believe you.But if you have money, can you even borrow from your in-laws?
If you want to borrow the savings from your family, then just borrow it.They are all relatives. When they encounter difficulties, it is also a matter of business for their children to go to school. It is no problem to take it and use it first.But the old lady's old books are mostly accessories and jewelry she used and worn when she was young.No matter what Xia Wenmao did, he would not be willing to give up his own mother's things.
Fourth Master said, "If you are really in a hurry to use it, I still have a fortune..."
Xia Wenmao waved his hand, "If you have the money, you can find someone and ask him to buy the building where I live for you and Tongtong."
Lin Yutong immediately understood that he sold all the small western-style houses passed down from his ancestors for his nephew to go abroad.He gritted his teeth and paid the money, but he also used the money to repay the Yue family's kindness. "Maybe it's not enough." The fourth master persuaded, "You go back and discuss it with the fourth aunt. If the fourth aunt does not agree, this matter will not be completed."
Xia Wenmao didn't say a word, and said after a long time, "Just treat me as a villain. If the discussion fails and your aunt thinks it's time to sell the house, just don't reveal it. That house is The Jiang family's house...was handed down from the ancestors. Don't end up in someone else's hands."
A meal is very disturbing.
Fourth Master gave Xia Wenmao the gold bar again, "Then we will wait for your news."
Ah!
On the way home, Xia Wenmao felt his legs were heavy. He rode his bicycle into the yard, and his wife came out to greet him, "I'm back. It's a bit late today. I'll go downstairs."
Xia Wenmao took out the gold bar and handed it to her, "Don't rush to change this one."
The fourth aunt's face changed when she saw it, and she said angrily, "Your niece and son-in-law are really interesting. After receiving something from me, I have to ask you again, why? I can't make the decision in this house anymore? You Xia I have no right to dispose of the things at home?"
Xia Wenmao walked in with his briefcase in his arms, "Where did I go? I happened to run into Yuan Min when I was going to the bank. Yuan Min didn't know about it, I didn't know about it. I just found out. I want to come back right away."
The fourth aunt's complexion improved, "Let me just say, I used to think Yuanmin was very clever." She said and chased after her, "How much of our family's savings is in Mom's hands, I reckon it should be Not much. Dad lost sleep because of Kangkang’s going abroad, and we can’t ignore it. Our two children are in my natal family, and my brother and sister-in-law haven’t said anything.”
I know!I know it all!Because of this, didn't I say nothing at home all the time?
"Then what do you mean you don't call it exchange?" The fourth aunt said anxiously, "I'm going to leave next month, and my brother and sister-in-law really can't come up with the money."
Xia Wenmao entered the house and put down the bag, "Dad told me before that there is not enough money, and the shortfall is quite large. When I heard it, it was an astronomical sum. Where can I get it? We only have this gold bar, which is a drop in the bucket." .”
The fourth aunt was stunned for a moment, "Why is there such a large shortfall?"
"I don't plan to come back." Xia Wenmao said while pouring water to wash his hands and face, "Among the two classes of students who went out last year, many of them went out and didn't plan to come back. But life outside is also hard. They say they wash dishes, what? Do all the hard work. Mom and Dad are reluctant to suffer the crime, and want to pay enough for the expenses, and it is best to buy another house in the United States."
what?
The fourth aunt was dumbfounded, "How can our family have such a condition?"
Xia Wenmao nodded, "Yes! There is no such condition. I plan to persuade Dad to tell him to talk to his elder brother and sister-in-law. This matter should not be rushed. Let's take a step and take a look. Let's go out and have a look first. Maybe the moon abroad has not yet come. What about domestic circles?"
Right!
The fourth aunt took the gold bars and went to the kitchen, "I'll hurry down."
Xia Wenmao asked, "Where are your parents?"
"Come right back." The old couple are retired and usually like to go out for a walk.
No, the meal is ready, and the old couple are back.Holding half a roast chicken in his hand, "It's grilled over charcoal. There's a stall on the side of the road. We only roast a few chickens a day. Today we only got half a chicken."
The fourth aunt picked it up, took it to the kitchen, cut it into pieces and brought it out, "Eat."
The mother-in-law brought some food for Xia Wenmao, "Eat more, I know you have worked hard, so I bought it specially."
Xia Wenmao nodded, and pulled noodles with chicken chop.
The fourth aunt looked at this and that, and asked while eating, "Kangkang will go abroad first, and then we can slowly find ways to raise money for it, that's okay."
The mother-in-law glared at her daughter, "What do you think? The salary is fixed, and no matter how hard you try, you can't change the money." Then, she looked at the son-in-law and kicked the daughter under the dining table, "Eat! Eat first! Let's talk after dinner."
The fourth aunt was hinted at by her own mother, so she couldn't ask any more questions.
After dinner, the mother and daughter went to the kitchen to wash the pots and dishes, and the mother-in-law said to the fourth aunt, "Why are you so stupid! It is true that Kangkang had to borrow a lot of money to go abroad, but Kangkang borrowed money from your aunt." , will definitely pay you back in the future, no one will rely on you, right?"
right!But I have no money to lend to Kangkang.
"You have no money, but your parents-in-law have money!" The mother-in-law said, "The two children did not say much when they came back, about what beads and rings were in grandma's box... Your mother-in-law has a lot of money in her hand. Just imagine, What about your mother-in-law’s four children, how much do you have in your hands? How about borrowing them through this incident? First, the matter of Kangkang’s going abroad has been settled, and he even has the money to settle in the United States. His name is Kang Kang will pay you back on a monthly basis in the future, so far as it is enough. This money will fall into your hands. No one else can share it! The money has been circulated and two things have been done in our family. What's wrong?"
The fourth aunt froze for a moment, "Can I still do this?"
Why not?
"Wen Mao can't be happy!"
"Then you have to say it! Do the math, and now it's your house that is under the most pressure. The eldest brother of your family will retire in two years. His daughter and son-in-law depend on him, and his grandchildren are not young anymore." , This is the day of happiness. Your eldest aunt is a professor, and her eldest brother-in-law is in the TV station. You see how popular the TV station is now, so the money can be earned less? They only have one son, and they are all married. Your second aunt My sister's life is better... just you guys, look at how you live. What are you afraid of asking the old man to take the four-bedroom subsidy? You and him are of the same mind, and you both have to think about the child... You have to call He knows that except for his wife and children, everyone else is an outsider. In this world, only you and your children are his most important people, and no one else counts. If a man does not have this understanding, he is incompetent. "
Fourth Aunt: "..." Actually, there is some truth to this... right?She cheered herself up, "I just want to borrow money from my mother-in-law's private house, right?"
right!I borrowed it for our family, and I will ask your nephew to return it to you later!The best of both worlds.
After washing the dishes and coming out of the kitchen, the fourth aunt's words changed, "...I thought about it, it's a big deal for Kangkang to go abroad. When he settles down abroad, when the two of us want to go abroad, Anyway, there is a place to stay. Besides, it’s just a loan, and you will always have to pay it back later.”
Xia Wenmao lowered his head and poured tea without raising his head, "Mom has how much money our family has in her hands, so you can give that and the gold bars to Mom too. If it's not enough, I'll advance my salary for a few more months..."
How much is that? !That's to America!
The mother-in-law glanced at the son-in-law and winked at the girl: Tell me!What is there to be afraid of between husband and wife.
The fourth aunt gritted her teeth, "I mean, can I borrow your mother's jewelry first..."
Xia Wenmao's hand holding the teapot paused in the air, and then slowly put it down again. He looked at the old man, "This money...does it have to be?"
"Wen Mao! In those years, your mother and I worried about you and gave you children. People say that I cared about my daughter and ignored my son, and I shut up my grandson and ignored my own grandson... This is what your mother and I made up for. An opportunity, otherwise, I really can't feel at ease when I close my eyes. The money is borrowed, and I will pay it back later!"
It's not about the money.
Xia Wenmao didn't believe that his father-in-law didn't understand this truth.He said, "That's not the case. My eldest brother and our two sisters should still have some gold in their hands. It's the same to borrow from them."
Of course it's different!
Those who borrowed from brothers and sisters have to pay back!But if you pick up your parents, do you have to pay it back?No need.
It's not just different, it's a world of difference.
The fourth aunt said angrily, "You are just afraid that my natal nephew will not marry you! When we encountered difficulties back then, my father and mother were not afraid of getting involved, and my brother and sister-in-law did not complain at all. What kind of grace is this? You Xia Wenmao can't ungrateful!"
ungrateful?
Xia Wenmao looked at her, "Don't make up your mind about my mother's things. Those things are no better than gold. Gold is a hard currency, and you can pay as much as you want. But those things look valuable, and they must be sold at the right time. Ask for the price. If you sell in such a hurry, the item will definitely not get you the amount you want."
The fourth aunt was stunned for a moment, "Then it counts as much..."
"You can't do things that are not cost-effective." Xia Wenmao smiled, "That thing is ancestral property, and the house we live in is also ancestral property. How about selling the house?! You are right, you can't be ungrateful. I will give everything I have now. Help, repay your kindness, and don’t say such things again when you look back.”
Sell a house?
The fourth aunt never thought that she would turn to her mother for help.
The mother-in-law took a look at the son-in-law, and felt a little angry in her heart. This clearly made her a soldier.He must have thought that he would not watch him sell the house, so he made such a move.
hehe!She nodded to her daughter: sell!I still don't believe it, he will really sell the house.
The fourth aunt didn't hesitate at all, and snorted angrily, "Sell it! This house is exhausting, how comfortable you are! Sell it! Whoever doesn't sell it is a bastard!"
Xia Wenmao got up directly, raised his feet and walked out.
After the person left, my fourth aunt lost her temper.Usually quarrels are like this, she yelled, men never argue, they just avoid them.He didn't come back until his anger was almost gone.
The mother even praised her daughter, "That's what a man has to do! He has to tighten his collar from time to time, otherwise he can fly. Don't worry, he won't really want to sell the house. Where will he live after selling the house? Besides, Who can take over such a big house? I didn’t see that the house of the first family has been empty for several years, is there anyone to buy it? It can’t be sold!”
Know!He is threatening himself.
But unexpectedly, Xia Wenmao didn't come back all night, and when he came back the next morning, he brought someone with him.
Fourth master asked He Bingchen to help, and he went out to buy it.The gold and silver returned by the old lady of the Bai family were used.
He Bingchen has done a good job in the briquette business in the past few years. He bought a yard facing the street in the county town and added a son. His life is not to mention prosperous.However, this kind of business is not decent, the Han family is still indifferent, and does not recognize this son-in-law.Even if Han Hongying gave birth, her own mother only waited on her for three days and never cared about her again.
Usually, He Bingchen was dressed in dirty clothes in the coal pile, but today he wore decent clothes when he went out, and he looked very dignified.
Xia Wenmao pretended to lead He Bingchen to look from room to room, "...the situation is like this, if it is possible, the transfer can be done today."
The fourth aunt also panicked, "Are you really going to sell it?"
Xia Wenmao looked at her, "Let's see you! Anyway, I can't think of any other way to spend the money when Kangkang goes abroad. Buying a house is the only way to make up the money. If you don't want to sell it, you can convince your parents .If you have to ask for money, this is the only way I can do it.”
So, you decide.
The fourth aunt frowned, "Where will we live if the house is sold?"
"The house divided by the unit, two-bedroom, enough to live in."
"But what about our two sons!"
"Looking back, at least your unit can be divided into a flat, so it won't be able to accommodate a son."
"What about parents? There is no place for parents to live?"
"After retiring, if the house doesn't come back, it will be able to respond upwards. Besides, with my face, as long as I make a report, why might the unit not give my parents a house. There is also a two-bedroom room over there, and it must be enough to live in." .”
The fourth aunt was still reluctant, she hesitated and couldn't make up her mind.It is easy to sell this house, but it is too difficult to buy it back.
The father-in-law came out of the house to see the situation, and immediately changed his face, and quickly apologized to He Bingchen, "I'm sorry, the couple is having a conflict. This house is not for sale!" If this really makes my uncle sell the house to support his grandson to go abroad , This really offset the love of those ten years.Can't do that!If you can't force the money over there, forget it, and think of another way.You can't take the road to a dead end.
But the mother-in-law didn't expect to go to that floor, she thought it was my son-in-law embarrassing her!I talked about it yesterday, and today I brought someone to look like a teacher and mobilize the crowd. Is this trying to scare someone!
Because of this, she was also eccentric, "Wen Mao is right, the house where the unit lives, the electricity and water bills are cheap, and there is collective heating. The family lives in a lively place, unlike this one, where there are many mosquitoes in summer, and it looks like an ice cellar in winter." At night, the shadow of the old man is drawn, and it can scare a person to death at night. If you don’t do anything all day, you can’t finish cleaning. It should be sold long ago, and it’s sold clean. There’s no one who lives here There are no people, how can it catch up with the excitement in the factory."
Xia Wenmao smiled and nodded: "Mom, you are right. Then listen to you and sell it."
He Bingchen opened the box, and it was full of gold and silver bullion, "Do you want to go to the bank for valuation?"
so old!
The father-in-law, who wanted to talk about the anti-dialogue, was attracted, and when he spoke first, he was stopped by his wife, "Everyone must have a house. We still have a house at work as a retreat. What about Kangkang?"
No matter how you handle this matter, it will not be perfect, and you can't take care of the other end.Now, focus on what matters first.
Xia Wenmao looked at his wife, "Sell it or not?"
The fourth aunt kept grabbing the corner of her clothes, looking at her parents for help.
Her father smiled, "Your mother is right. This house is good, but it's too troublesome to maintain. It takes one person's salary every year... It's not suitable for us to live in. It's not good for Wenmao either. Well, everyone lives in the unit and can usually communicate with each other. But living here, I can’t communicate with people. Besides, he is also in a leadership position. Living in such a place is easy to be criticized. Can’t blend in with the masses , which is particularly detrimental to his work.”
Her mother also said: "You two sons, you can't let two daughters-in-law live in the same building. It's inevitable that the pots and bowls touch the spoons. It's inevitable. The two sons of this house will eventually be sold. Make the ending. Instead of selling it at that time, it’s better to sell it at this time. Anyway, it’s a sale, who sells it is different?”
What you say makes sense!
The fourth aunt gritted her teeth and made up her mind, "Then sell it!"
Then it really sold!Xia Wenmao went out with He Bingchen, while Fourth Master and Tongtong were waiting at the transfer place, and they went directly to Tongtong's name.Xia Wenmao didn't say anything unnecessary, and went back with a box containing gold and silver, and then handed the box to his wife, "You can deal with it. Prepare to move too! The house will be vacated for someone in three days."
so fast?
The two children are in their third year of high school this year. When they came back from school and saw the mess at home, they realized that the house had been sold.
Xia Wenmao did not hide it, and told the child.
The fourth aunt reminded me, "Don't let this matter go unnoticed. You can't let your uncle and your aunts know, let alone your grandparents."
The two children looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't grow up with their uncle's cousins, so they didn't have that deep affection for them.Therefore, the two felt fascinated by the fact that they sold the house to support their cousin to go abroad.
The fourth aunt also warned, "If you ask why you moved, just say it's cold and it's not warm here. Do you understand?"
understood!
The fourth aunt wanted to keep it a secret, and Fourth Master and Tongtong didn't intend to let Lin Daniu know so soon.
When she was free, Lin Yutong went to find the old lady, "The old photos of our family, I took them out and asked someone to remake them and develop them. I want to keep a set for the family."
OK!
There are so many photos!Some of the black and white photos are not very clear.
Lin Yutong took the photos and asked them one by one in detail, and even asked about the color of the table list clearly.
After asking this clearly, she will talk about it after she goes back and plans to completely restore the building.
Tongtong was drawing and calculating on the table, she had never thought about how much it would cost to decorate two small western-style buildings like that.The family has saved money over the years.I still have a lot!It is not illegal to make this money, because it has been a dual-track price system in recent years.That is to say, in the planned economy, the price of a ton of cement has been raised from 40 yuan to [-] yuan.But the country also allows unplanned production and self-sale.
Those that are in the plan have arranged places, and those that are not in the plan have entered the market.For example, the price of 50 in the plan has soared to [-] because of the tight market.Almost doubled.What fourth master earns is the part of the money that he sells himself outside the plan.Of course, people like Han Hongbing made a lot of money.They can get the planned products with approval slips, and then use the planned products to sell in the market, and calculate the price difference: [-] yuan to buy, [-] yuan to sell.Simply huge profits!
The money is still on the shelf, so don't we have to let the money continue to move?
What earns the most money in this era--bad man!
Tell fourth master to squeeze the train back and forth to be a loser, so he won't do it.
Xia Wenmao is in the foreign trade office, he knows a lot of people now, the fourth master is thinking, and he has to find a chance to get in touch with a foreign trade official from Su.Personal business in private does not interfere with business.The point is, what can fourth master do if he doesn't do this?I want to make fertilizer, but I have never stopped experimenting.But this is the same as when Tongtong was in Sansheng Pharmaceutical, if you don't wait for the opportunity, it will be useless for you to fumble.
It's not boring to spend all day on that one-third of an acre of land.But if you want to ensure that the quality of life does not decrease, don't you have to think about it?
Yang Jianguo is fussing over everything now, and when the fourth master said something, he was overjoyed at the time: "Is it okay?"
OK!The plane can turn upside down if you want.
Xia Wenmao didn't directly introduce the partner to Si Ye, but 'ran into' Si Ye during the reception.Xia Wenmao will not have to take care of the rest of the matter, but also because there is such a person in the middle, there is more foundation for mutual trust.There was no obstacle for fourth master to communicate with the other party.
Lin Yutong felt that the business the two of them were doing belonged to the kind that came and went in nothing.
For example, the first time the two parties bought and sold, Mr. Luo Guofu from Su State asked his son to take a so-called purchase order and hand it over to Yang Jianguo.Yang Jianguo didn't care whether the thing was real or not, he returned directly, took this purchase order to the manufacturer, and asked for their unplanned products.This thing is to earn foreign exchange, and the idea of a closed inland city is still very old, so I gave it to the list here.The goods have gone out and are at the border, so the money is paid and the goods are delivered.
After the first time, the fourth master will not be a white wolf empty-handed, and he still has to give the deposit that should be given.Before the end of the year, Lin Yutong didn't even know how many deals he had done and how much money he had made.
It wasn't until New Year's Eve when a man wearing a ragged cotton jacket came that Lin Yutong really realized what it meant to make money.
Yang Jianguo entered the gate, dropped the snakeskin bag in his hand, and lay down on the ground, "Hurry up...give me water! Water!"
Um!sleep for you!
He took a sip of water before he recovered, "I was scared to death... I dare not sleep with money on the way! I dare not go back to my house..." He patted the bag, "Money! It's all money! It's all money!" money."
It's not yuan, it's rubles.
Lin Daniu was scared, look at Fourth Master, "What kind of business are you doing?"
"It's okay!" Fourth Master smiled and comforted him, "It's really okay! Uncle knows, what could happen?"
Lin Daniu didn't feel at ease, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of stuff are you selling?"
The fourth master was helpless, "Chilblain ointment! There are pharmaceutical factories in the provincial capital, and they produce very little of this stuff. This time, they placed a big order, and they worked for two months to get the goods together. The quantity is huge!"
Yang Jianguo chuckled, "Uncle, don't look at the small things, it seems worthless! But it doesn't seem to be! Foreigners recognize our traditional Chinese medicine. I have to think about it, think about what other Chinese patent medicines we have..."
Lin Yutong directly made a list for Hua, "You can't go wrong with this recommendation."
Yang Jianguo glanced at the list and stuffed it in his pocket.After eating a meal and sleeping for an hour, she turned around and left, "You keep the money, I'm afraid I'll scare my mother by taking it back." Lin Yutong was not afraid of being scared, she really dared to let go of her hands and feet to decorate the house.Just after Chinese New Year, she went to find Jin Yuanfu. This guy stopped working in the construction team and stayed without pay. He recruited a group of people to pick up odd jobs.
This person is fairly believable.To the outside world, he also knows the severity, what can be said and what cannot be said, he knows.
As soon as Lin Yutong said the matter, he agreed.That day, I went to the provincial capital with Lin Yutong to see the house.The interior and exterior repair of this house is really a big project.
"I don't ask for anything else, just do it carefully." Lin Yutong said, "I plan to ask Jin Xia to marry a daughter-in-law inside. I want to make sure to restore the original appearance as much as possible, but on this basis, I have to leave it for the future." There is enough room. Therefore, the construction must be strictly in accordance with the drawings. Do you have anyone who can understand the drawings?"
I don't!But as long as you give money, you can find someone who understands the picture, which is a trivial matter.
But he made a calculation, "If you have the money for repairs and repairs, buy a new piece of land, I can build you a lot more than this."
Lin Yutong looked at him helplessly, "This is from the ancestors."
Oh oh oh!Jin Yuanfu understood, "No matter what, it will take half a year to complete."
OK!Lin Yutong pointed to the lamp, "These are all to be preserved. If you can't clean them, don't move them for now, I'll think of other ways."
That gray thing?Jin Yuanfu asked: "Worth the money?"
"It's valuable." Therefore, we must watch it carefully, and don't ruin some things for us.
If it's done well, that set will also be handed over to you for decoration.
Lin Yutong didn't intend to replace this house with Jiang's old house. Its nature is different.If you want to change, you can buy other things, but this one is not enough.
The fourth aunt would definitely know the people who often come in and out here.She likes the big fireplace here so much, and the furniture here is ready-made, all matching.It's always a little old, but it's cherished for people to live in, and it doesn't look shabby.She had already thought about it, like a sofa...you can put a new cover on it, isn't this just like the letter?
She told Lin Yutong, "We move here in winter, and we can save coal."
That won't work!Without the permission of the old lady, nothing can be moved inside.
The fourth aunt was angry, "Why are you so determined? The old lady is not here."
No way!
Because of this, the fourth aunt had a little unpleasant talk with Lin Yutong.
For several years, Lin Yutong really didn't touch anything in the house, only the flowers and plants in the yard.Such days lasted until [-], when Lin Yutong received a telegram that old lady Bai passed away.
In the late autumn of [-], Lin Yutong and the fourth master went to the south to hold a funeral for the old lady.The old lady walked away very peacefully, free from illness and disaster, got up early and took out the cheongsam that Lin Yutong had sent her, and she, who had been reluctant to part with her upper body, put it on neatly.Then he put on the pearl ring, emerald table, tourmaline earrings, and gold necklace for himself, and took out the high-heeled shoes that had been kept in the closet.She even put on light makeup for herself in front of the mirror, and then made breakfast in a good mood.For breakfast, I made homemade sandwiches with fried eggs. For lunch, I took the old man out to eat. When I came back at night, I ate candlelight dinner, steak and red wine.She was in a good mood. After eating, she took a walk for half an hour accompanied by the old man, and came back to lie on the couch. The old records were still babbling and singing her favorite old tunes... She closed her eyes tightly and smiled. , but never opened his eyes again.
She wore the clothes she picked out by herself, and she didn't change her clothes when she was gone.When Lin Yutong and fourth master arrived, she lay there decently.The old man covered her face with a clean white veil with his own hands, "Go slowly, wait for me, don't hurry, I will find you soon..."
The old man was diagnosed with esophageal cancer at the beginning of the year, and he forbade anyone to tell the old lady.His nephew wanted to take him to the United States for medical treatment, but he gave up.He felt that instead of living with trepidation, it is better to accompany the person who should be accompanied when he can still move, "She has waited for me for 30 years, but I have only been with her for three years. I thought I would walk in front of her, but I didn't." Thinking of this time...it's her turn to leave without saying goodbye."
And this time, I won't keep her waiting so long.
The old man relied on his faith to hold on, but as soon as the old lady left, the funeral took three days to finish, and the old man collapsed and lay in the hospital without a drop of water.His family rushed back from abroad, but so what?Gods can't save people who want to die.Before Lin Yutong left, he went to see the old man, and he knew what was going on. If it went on like this, it would be difficult to survive a month.
She and fourth master bought a cemetery in the planned cemetery here and placed the ashes of the old lady.Later, I discussed with the old man's nephew whether to consider burying the two old people together in the future.The other party was very happy, "Falling leaves return to their roots, this is my uncle's choice, let's follow his wishes."
Lin Yutong and Fourth Master didn't care about it, they just mentioned the location of the cemetery, so they didn't need to attend the old man's funeral.
The old lady left, according to the old rules, the clothes, shoes, socks and other belongings had to be taken with her and burned for the old man.Only then did Lin Yutong move the things in the house, and the things that should be burned were burned at the crossroads outside the city.But she still didn't want to do anything else, and wait until the old lady passed the anniversary.
This time, I came here with fourth master and wrapped some delicate flowers and plants in plastic, fearing that they would be frozen in the winter.The two were busy in the yard when the fourth aunt came in, her footsteps hurried, "Tongtong, Yuanmin."
Fourth master didn't like to talk to this aunt, so he told Tongtong to just go.
Lin Yutong stood up, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
The fourth aunt took out a gold bar from her pocket, which should have been given to Xia Wenmao by Xia Jiumo when the family was separated.Because the old house of the Xia family was given to the eldest son, the second son got a gold bar, and each of the two daughters got a gold brick.
I heard the little fourth aunt say, "Last time, Yuanmin and a young man were cleaning up the yard here. I passed by and heard the two talking about foreign exchange in the yard..." She stretched her head and talked to the fourth master, "Yuanmin, you Please exchange this gold bar for dollars.”
It means not doing bank transactions.
Fourth Master stopped what he was doing, "Why are you exchanging that? This thing always fluctuates up and down, so you can keep the gold in your hand..."
"No!" The fourth aunt was anxious, bypassing Lin Yutong and squatting next to the fourth master, "Isn't my natal nephew going abroad? How can I rest assured at home if I don't bring money when I go out?"
Nowadays, those sent out by the public don't spend much money.The channel for studying abroad at their own expense has not yet been opened, so if you want to go abroad, you don't need to bring so much.
The fourth master first agreed, "I'll do it later. When it's done, send it home."
to make!
The fourth master went to Yang Jianguo. If he didn't do well at work, he wasted the foreign exchange.Before changing, he had to ask Xia Wenmao to see if he knew about it.As a result, Xia Wenmao was stunned when he asked, "Exchange foreign currency?"
right!Xia Wenmao was originally engaged in foreign trade, so it was actually more convenient for him to exchange foreign currency.
Fourth master guessed that Xia Wenmao probably didn't know, and sure enough, the other party held the phone in a daze for half a minute.It was the secretary who urged to call for a meeting, so he held the phone and gave a vague 'hmm', "This matter is not urgent...I will tell you in detail later."
It means not to change.
Fourth Master said, "Leave the things here first?"
"Come over at noon. Our unit has a restaurant in front of us. Let's have a meal in the restaurant. If Tongtong comes, call Tongtong too. It's okay, it's a family matter."
Then at noon, the two of them were waiting at the door of Xia Wenmao's unit. He got off work on time and walked in a hurry.In the past few years, Xia Wenmao has developed well, and he has a bit of official authority.This time he frowned, and when he saw the two, he showed a smile and took them into the jar.
Now the restaurant as a whole is very rough.But Xia Wenmao was familiar with the boss, so he took the two of them to the backyard.It can be seen that this place was originally a house, but the front has been changed to a front door.There was a table in the back yard, and the three of them sat down. Xia Wenmao didn't need to order, and the proprietress quickly served two cold dishes.
Xia Wenmao stuffed a peanut into his mouth, with a look of boredom between his brows.After chewing a bean for a long time, he said, "I want to discuss something with you."
Fourth Master poured tea for Xia Wenmao, "Say it."
The other party looked at Fourth Master, "Yuanmin, tell uncle how much money you can give."
The fourth master looked at Tongtong, and Tongtong immediately said, "Uncle, you want to use money to talk to you. Don't care how much you want, we can find a way to get it for you."
Xia Wenmao waved his hand, but he was very upset in his heart, "How can I use money?" He then smiled wryly, "Your aunt only knows that her nephew needs to exchange foreign exchange when she goes abroad, but she doesn't know at all, and her brother has no plans." Tell my son to come back. So, this time, I plan to settle down in the United States."
For An Jia - one gold bar is really not enough.
"My father-in-law came to me and borrowed money from me." Xia Wenmao's smile became even more bitter, "I didn't say anything clearly, but it meant that I wanted to pay for your grandparents' money."
Want to borrow Jiang Yingxue's capital to support his grandson to go abroad?Doesn't make sense?
Lin Yutong knew what Xia Wenmao was in trouble for.If you say that the Xia family has no money, no one will believe you.But if you have money, can you even borrow from your in-laws?
If you want to borrow the savings from your family, then just borrow it.They are all relatives. When they encounter difficulties, it is also a matter of business for their children to go to school. It is no problem to take it and use it first.But the old lady's old books are mostly accessories and jewelry she used and worn when she was young.No matter what Xia Wenmao did, he would not be willing to give up his own mother's things.
Fourth Master said, "If you are really in a hurry to use it, I still have a fortune..."
Xia Wenmao waved his hand, "If you have the money, you can find someone and ask him to buy the building where I live for you and Tongtong."
Lin Yutong immediately understood that he sold all the small western-style houses passed down from his ancestors for his nephew to go abroad.He gritted his teeth and paid the money, but he also used the money to repay the Yue family's kindness. "Maybe it's not enough." The fourth master persuaded, "You go back and discuss it with the fourth aunt. If the fourth aunt does not agree, this matter will not be completed."
Xia Wenmao didn't say a word, and said after a long time, "Just treat me as a villain. If the discussion fails and your aunt thinks it's time to sell the house, just don't reveal it. That house is The Jiang family's house...was handed down from the ancestors. Don't end up in someone else's hands."
A meal is very disturbing.
Fourth Master gave Xia Wenmao the gold bar again, "Then we will wait for your news."
Ah!
On the way home, Xia Wenmao felt his legs were heavy. He rode his bicycle into the yard, and his wife came out to greet him, "I'm back. It's a bit late today. I'll go downstairs."
Xia Wenmao took out the gold bar and handed it to her, "Don't rush to change this one."
The fourth aunt's face changed when she saw it, and she said angrily, "Your niece and son-in-law are really interesting. After receiving something from me, I have to ask you again, why? I can't make the decision in this house anymore? You Xia I have no right to dispose of the things at home?"
Xia Wenmao walked in with his briefcase in his arms, "Where did I go? I happened to run into Yuan Min when I was going to the bank. Yuan Min didn't know about it, I didn't know about it. I just found out. I want to come back right away."
The fourth aunt's complexion improved, "Let me just say, I used to think Yuanmin was very clever." She said and chased after her, "How much of our family's savings is in Mom's hands, I reckon it should be Not much. Dad lost sleep because of Kangkang’s going abroad, and we can’t ignore it. Our two children are in my natal family, and my brother and sister-in-law haven’t said anything.”
I know!I know it all!Because of this, didn't I say nothing at home all the time?
"Then what do you mean you don't call it exchange?" The fourth aunt said anxiously, "I'm going to leave next month, and my brother and sister-in-law really can't come up with the money."
Xia Wenmao entered the house and put down the bag, "Dad told me before that there is not enough money, and the shortfall is quite large. When I heard it, it was an astronomical sum. Where can I get it? We only have this gold bar, which is a drop in the bucket." .”
The fourth aunt was stunned for a moment, "Why is there such a large shortfall?"
"I don't plan to come back." Xia Wenmao said while pouring water to wash his hands and face, "Among the two classes of students who went out last year, many of them went out and didn't plan to come back. But life outside is also hard. They say they wash dishes, what? Do all the hard work. Mom and Dad are reluctant to suffer the crime, and want to pay enough for the expenses, and it is best to buy another house in the United States."
what?
The fourth aunt was dumbfounded, "How can our family have such a condition?"
Xia Wenmao nodded, "Yes! There is no such condition. I plan to persuade Dad to tell him to talk to his elder brother and sister-in-law. This matter should not be rushed. Let's take a step and take a look. Let's go out and have a look first. Maybe the moon abroad has not yet come. What about domestic circles?"
Right!
The fourth aunt took the gold bars and went to the kitchen, "I'll hurry down."
Xia Wenmao asked, "Where are your parents?"
"Come right back." The old couple are retired and usually like to go out for a walk.
No, the meal is ready, and the old couple are back.Holding half a roast chicken in his hand, "It's grilled over charcoal. There's a stall on the side of the road. We only roast a few chickens a day. Today we only got half a chicken."
The fourth aunt picked it up, took it to the kitchen, cut it into pieces and brought it out, "Eat."
The mother-in-law brought some food for Xia Wenmao, "Eat more, I know you have worked hard, so I bought it specially."
Xia Wenmao nodded, and pulled noodles with chicken chop.
The fourth aunt looked at this and that, and asked while eating, "Kangkang will go abroad first, and then we can slowly find ways to raise money for it, that's okay."
The mother-in-law glared at her daughter, "What do you think? The salary is fixed, and no matter how hard you try, you can't change the money." Then, she looked at the son-in-law and kicked the daughter under the dining table, "Eat! Eat first! Let's talk after dinner."
The fourth aunt was hinted at by her own mother, so she couldn't ask any more questions.
After dinner, the mother and daughter went to the kitchen to wash the pots and dishes, and the mother-in-law said to the fourth aunt, "Why are you so stupid! It is true that Kangkang had to borrow a lot of money to go abroad, but Kangkang borrowed money from your aunt." , will definitely pay you back in the future, no one will rely on you, right?"
right!But I have no money to lend to Kangkang.
"You have no money, but your parents-in-law have money!" The mother-in-law said, "The two children did not say much when they came back, about what beads and rings were in grandma's box... Your mother-in-law has a lot of money in her hand. Just imagine, What about your mother-in-law’s four children, how much do you have in your hands? How about borrowing them through this incident? First, the matter of Kangkang’s going abroad has been settled, and he even has the money to settle in the United States. His name is Kang Kang will pay you back on a monthly basis in the future, so far as it is enough. This money will fall into your hands. No one else can share it! The money has been circulated and two things have been done in our family. What's wrong?"
The fourth aunt froze for a moment, "Can I still do this?"
Why not?
"Wen Mao can't be happy!"
"Then you have to say it! Do the math, and now it's your house that is under the most pressure. The eldest brother of your family will retire in two years. His daughter and son-in-law depend on him, and his grandchildren are not young anymore." , This is the day of happiness. Your eldest aunt is a professor, and her eldest brother-in-law is in the TV station. You see how popular the TV station is now, so the money can be earned less? They only have one son, and they are all married. Your second aunt My sister's life is better... just you guys, look at how you live. What are you afraid of asking the old man to take the four-bedroom subsidy? You and him are of the same mind, and you both have to think about the child... You have to call He knows that except for his wife and children, everyone else is an outsider. In this world, only you and your children are his most important people, and no one else counts. If a man does not have this understanding, he is incompetent. "
Fourth Aunt: "..." Actually, there is some truth to this... right?She cheered herself up, "I just want to borrow money from my mother-in-law's private house, right?"
right!I borrowed it for our family, and I will ask your nephew to return it to you later!The best of both worlds.
After washing the dishes and coming out of the kitchen, the fourth aunt's words changed, "...I thought about it, it's a big deal for Kangkang to go abroad. When he settles down abroad, when the two of us want to go abroad, Anyway, there is a place to stay. Besides, it’s just a loan, and you will always have to pay it back later.”
Xia Wenmao lowered his head and poured tea without raising his head, "Mom has how much money our family has in her hands, so you can give that and the gold bars to Mom too. If it's not enough, I'll advance my salary for a few more months..."
How much is that? !That's to America!
The mother-in-law glanced at the son-in-law and winked at the girl: Tell me!What is there to be afraid of between husband and wife.
The fourth aunt gritted her teeth, "I mean, can I borrow your mother's jewelry first..."
Xia Wenmao's hand holding the teapot paused in the air, and then slowly put it down again. He looked at the old man, "This money...does it have to be?"
"Wen Mao! In those years, your mother and I worried about you and gave you children. People say that I cared about my daughter and ignored my son, and I shut up my grandson and ignored my own grandson... This is what your mother and I made up for. An opportunity, otherwise, I really can't feel at ease when I close my eyes. The money is borrowed, and I will pay it back later!"
It's not about the money.
Xia Wenmao didn't believe that his father-in-law didn't understand this truth.He said, "That's not the case. My eldest brother and our two sisters should still have some gold in their hands. It's the same to borrow from them."
Of course it's different!
Those who borrowed from brothers and sisters have to pay back!But if you pick up your parents, do you have to pay it back?No need.
It's not just different, it's a world of difference.
The fourth aunt said angrily, "You are just afraid that my natal nephew will not marry you! When we encountered difficulties back then, my father and mother were not afraid of getting involved, and my brother and sister-in-law did not complain at all. What kind of grace is this? You Xia Wenmao can't ungrateful!"
ungrateful?
Xia Wenmao looked at her, "Don't make up your mind about my mother's things. Those things are no better than gold. Gold is a hard currency, and you can pay as much as you want. But those things look valuable, and they must be sold at the right time. Ask for the price. If you sell in such a hurry, the item will definitely not get you the amount you want."
The fourth aunt was stunned for a moment, "Then it counts as much..."
"You can't do things that are not cost-effective." Xia Wenmao smiled, "That thing is ancestral property, and the house we live in is also ancestral property. How about selling the house?! You are right, you can't be ungrateful. I will give everything I have now. Help, repay your kindness, and don’t say such things again when you look back.”
Sell a house?
The fourth aunt never thought that she would turn to her mother for help.
The mother-in-law took a look at the son-in-law, and felt a little angry in her heart. This clearly made her a soldier.He must have thought that he would not watch him sell the house, so he made such a move.
hehe!She nodded to her daughter: sell!I still don't believe it, he will really sell the house.
The fourth aunt didn't hesitate at all, and snorted angrily, "Sell it! This house is exhausting, how comfortable you are! Sell it! Whoever doesn't sell it is a bastard!"
Xia Wenmao got up directly, raised his feet and walked out.
After the person left, my fourth aunt lost her temper.Usually quarrels are like this, she yelled, men never argue, they just avoid them.He didn't come back until his anger was almost gone.
The mother even praised her daughter, "That's what a man has to do! He has to tighten his collar from time to time, otherwise he can fly. Don't worry, he won't really want to sell the house. Where will he live after selling the house? Besides, Who can take over such a big house? I didn’t see that the house of the first family has been empty for several years, is there anyone to buy it? It can’t be sold!”
Know!He is threatening himself.
But unexpectedly, Xia Wenmao didn't come back all night, and when he came back the next morning, he brought someone with him.
Fourth master asked He Bingchen to help, and he went out to buy it.The gold and silver returned by the old lady of the Bai family were used.
He Bingchen has done a good job in the briquette business in the past few years. He bought a yard facing the street in the county town and added a son. His life is not to mention prosperous.However, this kind of business is not decent, the Han family is still indifferent, and does not recognize this son-in-law.Even if Han Hongying gave birth, her own mother only waited on her for three days and never cared about her again.
Usually, He Bingchen was dressed in dirty clothes in the coal pile, but today he wore decent clothes when he went out, and he looked very dignified.
Xia Wenmao pretended to lead He Bingchen to look from room to room, "...the situation is like this, if it is possible, the transfer can be done today."
The fourth aunt also panicked, "Are you really going to sell it?"
Xia Wenmao looked at her, "Let's see you! Anyway, I can't think of any other way to spend the money when Kangkang goes abroad. Buying a house is the only way to make up the money. If you don't want to sell it, you can convince your parents .If you have to ask for money, this is the only way I can do it.”
So, you decide.
The fourth aunt frowned, "Where will we live if the house is sold?"
"The house divided by the unit, two-bedroom, enough to live in."
"But what about our two sons!"
"Looking back, at least your unit can be divided into a flat, so it won't be able to accommodate a son."
"What about parents? There is no place for parents to live?"
"After retiring, if the house doesn't come back, it will be able to respond upwards. Besides, with my face, as long as I make a report, why might the unit not give my parents a house. There is also a two-bedroom room over there, and it must be enough to live in." .”
The fourth aunt was still reluctant, she hesitated and couldn't make up her mind.It is easy to sell this house, but it is too difficult to buy it back.
The father-in-law came out of the house to see the situation, and immediately changed his face, and quickly apologized to He Bingchen, "I'm sorry, the couple is having a conflict. This house is not for sale!" If this really makes my uncle sell the house to support his grandson to go abroad , This really offset the love of those ten years.Can't do that!If you can't force the money over there, forget it, and think of another way.You can't take the road to a dead end.
But the mother-in-law didn't expect to go to that floor, she thought it was my son-in-law embarrassing her!I talked about it yesterday, and today I brought someone to look like a teacher and mobilize the crowd. Is this trying to scare someone!
Because of this, she was also eccentric, "Wen Mao is right, the house where the unit lives, the electricity and water bills are cheap, and there is collective heating. The family lives in a lively place, unlike this one, where there are many mosquitoes in summer, and it looks like an ice cellar in winter." At night, the shadow of the old man is drawn, and it can scare a person to death at night. If you don’t do anything all day, you can’t finish cleaning. It should be sold long ago, and it’s sold clean. There’s no one who lives here There are no people, how can it catch up with the excitement in the factory."
Xia Wenmao smiled and nodded: "Mom, you are right. Then listen to you and sell it."
He Bingchen opened the box, and it was full of gold and silver bullion, "Do you want to go to the bank for valuation?"
so old!
The father-in-law, who wanted to talk about the anti-dialogue, was attracted, and when he spoke first, he was stopped by his wife, "Everyone must have a house. We still have a house at work as a retreat. What about Kangkang?"
No matter how you handle this matter, it will not be perfect, and you can't take care of the other end.Now, focus on what matters first.
Xia Wenmao looked at his wife, "Sell it or not?"
The fourth aunt kept grabbing the corner of her clothes, looking at her parents for help.
Her father smiled, "Your mother is right. This house is good, but it's too troublesome to maintain. It takes one person's salary every year... It's not suitable for us to live in. It's not good for Wenmao either. Well, everyone lives in the unit and can usually communicate with each other. But living here, I can’t communicate with people. Besides, he is also in a leadership position. Living in such a place is easy to be criticized. Can’t blend in with the masses , which is particularly detrimental to his work.”
Her mother also said: "You two sons, you can't let two daughters-in-law live in the same building. It's inevitable that the pots and bowls touch the spoons. It's inevitable. The two sons of this house will eventually be sold. Make the ending. Instead of selling it at that time, it’s better to sell it at this time. Anyway, it’s a sale, who sells it is different?”
What you say makes sense!
The fourth aunt gritted her teeth and made up her mind, "Then sell it!"
Then it really sold!Xia Wenmao went out with He Bingchen, while Fourth Master and Tongtong were waiting at the transfer place, and they went directly to Tongtong's name.Xia Wenmao didn't say anything unnecessary, and went back with a box containing gold and silver, and then handed the box to his wife, "You can deal with it. Prepare to move too! The house will be vacated for someone in three days."
so fast?
The two children are in their third year of high school this year. When they came back from school and saw the mess at home, they realized that the house had been sold.
Xia Wenmao did not hide it, and told the child.
The fourth aunt reminded me, "Don't let this matter go unnoticed. You can't let your uncle and your aunts know, let alone your grandparents."
The two children looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't grow up with their uncle's cousins, so they didn't have that deep affection for them.Therefore, the two felt fascinated by the fact that they sold the house to support their cousin to go abroad.
The fourth aunt also warned, "If you ask why you moved, just say it's cold and it's not warm here. Do you understand?"
understood!
The fourth aunt wanted to keep it a secret, and Fourth Master and Tongtong didn't intend to let Lin Daniu know so soon.
When she was free, Lin Yutong went to find the old lady, "The old photos of our family, I took them out and asked someone to remake them and develop them. I want to keep a set for the family."
OK!
There are so many photos!Some of the black and white photos are not very clear.
Lin Yutong took the photos and asked them one by one in detail, and even asked about the color of the table list clearly.
After asking this clearly, she will talk about it after she goes back and plans to completely restore the building.
Tongtong was drawing and calculating on the table, she had never thought about how much it would cost to decorate two small western-style buildings like that.The family has saved money over the years.I still have a lot!It is not illegal to make this money, because it has been a dual-track price system in recent years.That is to say, in the planned economy, the price of a ton of cement has been raised from 40 yuan to [-] yuan.But the country also allows unplanned production and self-sale.
Those that are in the plan have arranged places, and those that are not in the plan have entered the market.For example, the price of 50 in the plan has soared to [-] because of the tight market.Almost doubled.What fourth master earns is the part of the money that he sells himself outside the plan.Of course, people like Han Hongbing made a lot of money.They can get the planned products with approval slips, and then use the planned products to sell in the market, and calculate the price difference: [-] yuan to buy, [-] yuan to sell.Simply huge profits!
The money is still on the shelf, so don't we have to let the money continue to move?
What earns the most money in this era--bad man!
Tell fourth master to squeeze the train back and forth to be a loser, so he won't do it.
Xia Wenmao is in the foreign trade office, he knows a lot of people now, the fourth master is thinking, and he has to find a chance to get in touch with a foreign trade official from Su.Personal business in private does not interfere with business.The point is, what can fourth master do if he doesn't do this?I want to make fertilizer, but I have never stopped experimenting.But this is the same as when Tongtong was in Sansheng Pharmaceutical, if you don't wait for the opportunity, it will be useless for you to fumble.
It's not boring to spend all day on that one-third of an acre of land.But if you want to ensure that the quality of life does not decrease, don't you have to think about it?
Yang Jianguo is fussing over everything now, and when the fourth master said something, he was overjoyed at the time: "Is it okay?"
OK!The plane can turn upside down if you want.
Xia Wenmao didn't directly introduce the partner to Si Ye, but 'ran into' Si Ye during the reception.Xia Wenmao will not have to take care of the rest of the matter, but also because there is such a person in the middle, there is more foundation for mutual trust.There was no obstacle for fourth master to communicate with the other party.
Lin Yutong felt that the business the two of them were doing belonged to the kind that came and went in nothing.
For example, the first time the two parties bought and sold, Mr. Luo Guofu from Su State asked his son to take a so-called purchase order and hand it over to Yang Jianguo.Yang Jianguo didn't care whether the thing was real or not, he returned directly, took this purchase order to the manufacturer, and asked for their unplanned products.This thing is to earn foreign exchange, and the idea of a closed inland city is still very old, so I gave it to the list here.The goods have gone out and are at the border, so the money is paid and the goods are delivered.
After the first time, the fourth master will not be a white wolf empty-handed, and he still has to give the deposit that should be given.Before the end of the year, Lin Yutong didn't even know how many deals he had done and how much money he had made.
It wasn't until New Year's Eve when a man wearing a ragged cotton jacket came that Lin Yutong really realized what it meant to make money.
Yang Jianguo entered the gate, dropped the snakeskin bag in his hand, and lay down on the ground, "Hurry up...give me water! Water!"
Um!sleep for you!
He took a sip of water before he recovered, "I was scared to death... I dare not sleep with money on the way! I dare not go back to my house..." He patted the bag, "Money! It's all money! It's all money!" money."
It's not yuan, it's rubles.
Lin Daniu was scared, look at Fourth Master, "What kind of business are you doing?"
"It's okay!" Fourth Master smiled and comforted him, "It's really okay! Uncle knows, what could happen?"
Lin Daniu didn't feel at ease, and hurriedly asked, "What kind of stuff are you selling?"
The fourth master was helpless, "Chilblain ointment! There are pharmaceutical factories in the provincial capital, and they produce very little of this stuff. This time, they placed a big order, and they worked for two months to get the goods together. The quantity is huge!"
Yang Jianguo chuckled, "Uncle, don't look at the small things, it seems worthless! But it doesn't seem to be! Foreigners recognize our traditional Chinese medicine. I have to think about it, think about what other Chinese patent medicines we have..."
Lin Yutong directly made a list for Hua, "You can't go wrong with this recommendation."
Yang Jianguo glanced at the list and stuffed it in his pocket.After eating a meal and sleeping for an hour, she turned around and left, "You keep the money, I'm afraid I'll scare my mother by taking it back." Lin Yutong was not afraid of being scared, she really dared to let go of her hands and feet to decorate the house.Just after Chinese New Year, she went to find Jin Yuanfu. This guy stopped working in the construction team and stayed without pay. He recruited a group of people to pick up odd jobs.
This person is fairly believable.To the outside world, he also knows the severity, what can be said and what cannot be said, he knows.
As soon as Lin Yutong said the matter, he agreed.That day, I went to the provincial capital with Lin Yutong to see the house.The interior and exterior repair of this house is really a big project.
"I don't ask for anything else, just do it carefully." Lin Yutong said, "I plan to ask Jin Xia to marry a daughter-in-law inside. I want to make sure to restore the original appearance as much as possible, but on this basis, I have to leave it for the future." There is enough room. Therefore, the construction must be strictly in accordance with the drawings. Do you have anyone who can understand the drawings?"
I don't!But as long as you give money, you can find someone who understands the picture, which is a trivial matter.
But he made a calculation, "If you have the money for repairs and repairs, buy a new piece of land, I can build you a lot more than this."
Lin Yutong looked at him helplessly, "This is from the ancestors."
Oh oh oh!Jin Yuanfu understood, "No matter what, it will take half a year to complete."
OK!Lin Yutong pointed to the lamp, "These are all to be preserved. If you can't clean them, don't move them for now, I'll think of other ways."
That gray thing?Jin Yuanfu asked: "Worth the money?"
"It's valuable." Therefore, we must watch it carefully, and don't ruin some things for us.
If it's done well, that set will also be handed over to you for decoration.
