I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 75, The Third Master's Calculation (for further reading)
"You don't have to say sorry, let your people fill this tunnel back, or we won't do it!"

The first mother spoke bluntly, and the others nodded their heads.

At this time, Mrs. Jia Zhang suddenly said, "It's not impossible to connect the water pipes. If you lose money, you can pay each of our households two yuan and promise not to use water indiscriminately."

hiss!
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they suddenly felt that this proposal was also very good.

It is obviously more cost-effective to let him lose money than not letting him connect to the water pipe for many years.

Zhou Hongmei suddenly became angry, it's Jia Zhang again, you shit-stirring stick, is it itchy again?

Before Zhou Hongmei could open her mouth, she said first for many years:
"I'll fill the tunnel back right away!"

Awesome, Jia Zhang's move can be said to be a panda ordering takeaway, and the bamboo shoots are home.

But he is not that stupid, really every household loses so much money.

With this money, it is better to dig a well directly in front of the house.

The old Xu's family didn't have much, except that they had enough labor.

After all, he asked Wang Changyuan's apprentice to help fill in the tunnel.

Da Ma and the others looked at each other, the matter was so easily resolved, but they felt that they were at a disadvantage.

why?
If it wasn't for Jia Zhang's proposal just now, then everyone might think that this is pretty good now.

However, it is even more difficult for everyone to accept the loss of two yuan per family and the absence of water pipes for many years.

Big loss!

No one said anything, and they haven't recovered yet.

It has been many years since they walked into the ear room to check today's progress, Zhou Hongmei and the others glared at Jia Zhang and the others angrily, and then continued to work.

Towards evening, all the workers in the rolling mill came back.

I thought there was nothing to do today, but I didn't expect the lesbians to mention the matter of losing money that they wanted to take over the water pipes and Jia Zhang mentioned for many years. The gay men who were tired all day were all full of energy.

why?
money!

If you can pay two yuan in compensation, wouldn't it be a waste of two days' wages?

Except for senior workers like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, whose wages are a little higher, the wages of other workers are basically around 30 yuan.

On average, the salary for two days is almost two yuan.

According to incomplete statistics, the average monthly living expenses of urban residents in this era is eight or nine yuan, and a salary of three to forty yuan can support a family of five.

However, some families spend about [-] yuan a month on maximum food expenses.

Of course, this kind of family will have a very hard life. If there are many children, ten yuan is far from enough.

Just like Yan Bugui, a family of seven, his monthly salary is only an average of 30 yuan, but Yan Xiecheng brought up their five children.

But anyway, two yuan is not a small amount of money
"For many years, I am very much in favor of you taking over the water pipe"

"Let's have a brief general meeting later. Prepare some money, and I will persuade everyone to let you fetch water from the laundry tank."

"Wait a minute, third master, just wait a moment." Many Nian hurriedly called out to the other party.

After stopping Yan Bugui, he directly stated for many years that there was no need to hold a general assembly, and he would no longer receive water from the well.

This made the third master anxious, he seemed to see the two yuan flying away.

"What's the use of all those pipes you installed if you don't catch the water?"

After asking a rhetorical question, without waiting for many years to speak, Yan Bugui went on to say: "I understand, you young people are thin-skinned, I understand, I will help you and let everyone accept your connection to the water pipe, rest assured. As long as you remember to wrap me an extra red envelope with me, that’s all.”

Speechless!

I just rolled my eyes for many years, I am afraid that the last sentence is the purpose of your third master, right?
As expected, he was worthy of being the number one chicken thief in the courtyard, and his calculating ability was unrivaled.

"Third Master, you think too much. I have a thick skin. I said no, so don't worry about it. Besides, I'm poor, and I still owe you 500 yuan."

It's not news for a long time that I owe the uncle 500 yuan. Who doesn't know about the nearby courtyards?

It is said that the interest alone has paid ten yuan for many years.

When Yan Bugui heard it, he couldn't help but pat his thigh. If he had 500 yuan, he would lend it to him for many years.

The interest of ten yuan is only borrowed for one year!
This money is also very easy to earn!
Yan Bugui still wants to fight for it again, but he has not given the other party a chance for many years.

"Third Master, don't waste your efforts in vain, I really have no money!"

After that, he just sat back and didn't mean to talk to the third master.

Seeing this, the latter opened his mouth, and finally left unwillingly.

But Yan Bugui did not go home, but went to the Intermediate Court.

He wanted to discuss with Liu Haizhong, but happened to meet him in Chaoshou corridor.

"I'm just about to look for you. Just in time, I'll tell you about the connection of the water pipe from the laundry trough for many years. Let me tell you, Second Uncle, this is a great thing to benefit our courtyard..."

Liu Haizhong, who didn't want to listen to Yan Bugui's nonsense, was shocked when he heard the words.

The word "blessing" can be regarded as speaking of his heart.

As an official fan, although he is a rookie and has no city, but he has learned a little bit about taking pictures of cats and tigers.

For example, benefiting one party is definitely a good thing.

If this thing is really successful, it will be a great achievement.

So he took Yan Bugui directly to the backyard, and said as he walked, "Teacher Yan, what a coincidence, I still have Lao Baigan who hasn't finished drinking at home, let me tell you, it's so energetic, hey, old It's..."

"Really? Then I am lucky today..."

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up, thinking that there is still such a good thing?
Liu Haizhong in the backyard is also a big family. He is a seventh-level worker with a high salary.

When the two entered, Yan Bugui smelled the fragrance, and his stomach growled uncontrollably.

so awkward!
"Haha, I've had a bad stomach from eating at noon..." Yan Bugui explained with a haha, so embarrassed that he could deduct three rooms and two halls.

He didn't eat much all day, and his breakfast and lunch were rationed, and the portions were very small.

After all, his salary is not high, and his family has a lot of people, not counting, how can he have enough to eat?

I can't afford to eat, let alone drink.

Therefore, after smelling the smell, the gluttonous insects are hooked out.

Liu Haizhong didn't care about this either, he just took out the wine and asked Aunt Liu to make a plate of peanuts.

After taking a small mouthful of Laobaigan, Yan Bugui immediately closed his eyes and savored it with great enjoyment.

"What an old pickpocket, you'll drink to death!"

Seeing Yan Bugui's appearance, Liu Haizhong was very contemptuous, but he didn't say anything.
