Chapter 242 Great Craftsman

Li Wei smiled slightly after hearing this: "Bingzi, it seems that you have made a fortune!" '

Chen Bing laughed and said, "Just to make a little fortune!"

He can't say he didn't get rich, if he said he didn't get rich, then you got so much money, so it's best to say a little bit of money.

Before Chen Bing finished speaking, He Cuilian said, "Uncle Li, Bingzi opened a food factory in Yangqing. The factory is huge. After my father and I went to see it, what a guy, there are dozens of acres of land, huh." Hehe, I heard that there are thousands of workers! '

After hearing this, Li Wei said in surprise: "Ten acres of land, thousands of people?"

Li Wei stared at Chen Bing and said, "Bingzi, then you are the big boss!"

Chen Bing smiled slightly: "It's not a big boss, an ordinary small boss. After all, he just started out and didn't make any money. He just wanted to build a pile foundation for two old people, so that the two old people would grow old." , and live in a good house!"

After hearing this, Li Wei gave a thumbs up: "That's right, you know how to be filial!"

Li Wei is a great craftsman and a person who has seen the world. Especially in the past few years, after the rural responsible land contracted to the households, every family has solved the problem of food and clothing, but the money is a little tight. In this case, the houses in the countryside are also It was built in full swing, but there was nothing like Chen Bing's.

They build houses by cutting some of their own trees from the ditch as beams, and using wet soil to beat some clods to build the house. Some families are slightly better, and some green bricks are used at the front, but this Chen Bing actually used green bricks all over the house, that’s not to mention that the courtyard walls and floors were paved with green bricks, and grandma, what’s more, a gatehouse was built, and the gatehouse had to be made of cement boards.

My God, boy, how much does that cost.

Li Wei roughly estimated that it would cost tens of thousands.

When Li Wei thought about tens of thousands, my dear, if it was tens of thousands, then this house would be one of the best in the whole town, let alone the village, even in the whole county.

Because, in the late 80s and early 90s, rural productivity was underdeveloped, and households with ten thousand yuan in the village would go to the county every year to parade on big horses
Chen Bing didn't know what Li Wei was thinking now, but he just felt that Li Wei was a little ink-stained.

I don’t have time to chat with you right now, you have to do the calculations for me quickly, after the calculations, I’ll pay, after I’ve paid, I have to go, tomorrow, I still have to go to Yanjing?
When Chen Bing thought of Zhang Yuan from Yanjing, his heart beat thump-thump-thump.

Although it is impossible for him to have a relationship with Zhang Yuan at the moment, ever since he found out about Zhang Yuan and her boyfriend, he has been thinking about this woman who is more loyal to his feelings.

"Uncle Li, I don't know what to do with your budget?"

Li Wei nodded slightly, picked up the bag, took out a tape measure, and took out a notebook.

"What do you say, let's measure while talking. After the measurement, the account will come out!"

"So fast?"

Chen Bing was a little surprised.

Grandma, if the budget is so fast, it will make money.

"Hehehe, Bingzi, Uncle Li, I have been a craftsman all my life. How much it costs is basically in my eyes."

"Well, Uncle Li, I will do as you say!"

"Dad, let's pull the ruler!"

After Chen Mantun heard this, he was so happy.

He Cuilian was also happy.

"Measure, I'll cook for you!"

Chen Bing and Chen Man hoarded the ruler, and Li Wei memorized the numbers. An hour later, the measurement was completed.

Li Wei calculated, and after another hour, the number came out.

"Bingzi, I need the bricks. I need the tiles."

Chen Bing didn't want to know such details: "Uncle Li, tell me, how much do you need in total?"

Li Wei secretly said: "This kid, I don't know if he is really rich or a prodigal?"

"Bingzi, this house of yours is too much if you calculate it, how can it cost about [-]?"

Chen Mantun heard it, and shouted in surprise: "He, Uncle Li, how much do you say, [-]?"

Li Wei stared at Chen Bing, and smiled awkwardly: "Yes, it costs [-] yuan. We have to make some money for the outsourcing work, don't we?"

"Well, ten thousand and two thousand, I'll pack it up for you, and when the time comes, you can move it back after making a few pieces of furniture!"

"To make furniture?"

Yes, that era is not like 2021. As long as you go out, there are furniture sellers everywhere, and the furniture of farmhouses mainly depends on making.

Chen Mantun still wanted to talk, but Chen Bing said directly: "Uncle Li, do you also know how to do carpentry?"

"Yes, when it comes to carpentry, I can tell you that there are not many carpentry jobs that can be done by me in a radius of a hundred miles?"

"In this way, how much will it cost to make two cabinets, two tables, and some household miscellaneous things?"

"You want me to do this?"

"Do!"

Chen Mantun wanted to stop him, but Chen Bing hurriedly said: "Isn't there wood over there, can you use those woods to make?"

Li Wei went over and took a look: "Hey, the good wood is paulownia, hehehe, good wood for making furniture and doors and windows. In this way, you pay a total of 13000 yuan, and I will make it for you properly."

Chen Bing knew that 13000 yuan was too much, but he didn't want to be troubled, so he had to pay more.

"Uncle Li, 13000 yuan is fine. However, my two elderly people are both old. You should go to your own home for dinner. Don't ask my parents to help you when you are doing work. I really don't want them to be tired."

After hearing this, Li Wei agreed, nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay."

I got 13000 yuan, I'm afraid there will be no place to eat, grandma's.

"I promise."

"Well!"

After Chen Bing finished speaking, he took out 10000 yuan and handed it to Li Wei: "Uncle Li, the 1 yuan will be given to you first. You buy raw materials, and when the house is built and the furniture is finished, I will check and accept it. After the acceptance, I will pay the rest at that time." How about 3000 yuan? '

Li Wei quickly agreed.

He knew that if he didn't agree, as long as Chen Bing and Chen Mantun were given time, Chen Mantun would definitely be able to find a cheaper person, who could cover 10000 yuan.

"Okay, let's write a contract!"

"contract?"

"For Chen Bing, nothing is as important as a contract."

If Li Wei has seen people in the world, he knows that people outside rely on contracts, unlike the people in the village, who spit and nail, and get what they say.

Since people want to sign a contract, he can only sign it.

After signing the contract, Li Wei left, saying that work would start tomorrow.

After Li Wei left, Chen Mantun's face turned green, and he pointed at Chen Bing's head: "You soldier, you are such a prodigal son, you can give him at least 2000 yuan more!"

Chen Mantun has been doing farm work all his life. Although he doesn't know the budget, he can make a rough estimate for building and making these things.

"Prodigal, prodigal!"

"Bingzi, go and get the money back, I'll find another craftsman to build it!"

Chen Bing knew it was too much, and he laughed after hearing it: "Dad, I know it's too much, but don't let you relax, besides, this is building a house, not only must it be built but also must be built well, didn't you just say , Is he the best craftsman who builds a house within a hundred miles of us?"
