Farmhouse pretty cook

Chapter 72 The hero makes a grand debut (9)
When she asked this question, Lin Fugui fell silent. He picked up the cigarette pipe and knocked on the corner of the table.

Damei knew what his father meant, and yelled dissatisfiedly: "Father, Mu Xiang is not that thoughtful person, just say what you have, and no one will blame you, don't act like that!"

Mu Xiang also understood, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Lin, I have never built a house before, and I don't know how much a house costs. Don’t you worry when you get it? If you need a lot of money and I don’t have enough money, then I’ll wait until I’ve saved enough, and then I’ll build it again.”

Lin Fugui took two puffs of cigarettes before telling her the truth, "I can only calculate for you based on last year's price. I don't know if the price of green bricks has increased this year. If you follow last year's market price, you The area on the west wall of the house will cost 20 taels, maybe even 30 taels, anyway, it’s in the middle, if you’re wrong, girl, don’t take it to heart!”

While shaking her head, Mu Xiang calculated in her heart that it was really cheap.

On the way back, she asked Xiao Liu, and said that she bought two houses with a small courtyard in the town, which cost 50 taels at most, and it would be about the same after such a conversion, "Then Uncle Lin, I think now I started to build it. The money is no problem. I just go to buy those materials. I don’t know much about them, and I don’t know where they can be sold. You see, I also told Brother Wang Xi that I will give you the job of building the house. Do it, I'll pay for it, can this be done?"

Lin Fugui said: "Girl, you have to think about this matter, why don't you rest assured to hand over the money to others?"

Mu Xiang smiled, "What's the matter? It's called contracting. If necessary, we can keep an account. How much is the material, how much is the labor, and all the odds and ends? When we are together, we will be able to rely on me, I will outsource all the work to you, and I will save myself trouble, and I can do other work, without any delay on both sides."

Lin Changshuan remained silent all the time, because he felt that Mu Xiang believed them. She was a girl who really didn't understand anything, so it was normal for them to do it. But after hearing Mu Xiang's suggestion, he suddenly felt that he could grasp something. , But after thinking about it carefully, he found that his head was empty, and he wandered around the room in a hurry.

Damei was excited to hear what Mu Xiang said, and seeing him walking around the room, she slapped him angrily, "Oh, what are you talking about, let Mu Xiang finish talking!"

Lin Changshuan didn't raise his head, but just waved his hands, "I'm fine, you just talk about yours, let me think about it again, I always feel that there is something I didn't remember about this matter, what is it?"

Seeing his troubled appearance, Mu Xiang smiled and said, "Brother Changshuan, if you want to do it, you can set up a contracting team, contract materials, contract labor, and make the budget needed to build a house. Is this kind of work profitable? How much money! In addition to building houses, you also need to repair houses and build ancestral halls. As long as you make your reputation known, isn’t it the money that you earn?”

Lin Changshuan patted his thigh, "That's right, I said something flashed through my mind just now, that's right, just like what Mu Xiang said, Dad, we can set up a contract team, carpenters and bricklayers, it's natural for those who know Well, if you don’t have any work, go find them, if you have work, find them to do it, if you don’t have work, go home.”

Lin Fugui was much calmer than him. After all, he had lived for decades, and he would not be like Lin Changshuan, who would rush to the room whenever something happened. After listening to Lin Changshuan's words, he really thought about it carefully, "Life is not difficult. Do it, just contract it like this, it doesn't necessarily make money! And it's all from the folks in the village, so... I'm afraid it's not good!"

Lin Changshuan also fainted when he heard the words. Yes, they went to help people build houses, and all they got was wages, not much. Some people built houses with borrowed money.But if they contract the project at the original price of the materials, what will they earn?It's better to do nothing and go help others!
Damei patted the table and shouted: "I can't get used to your face, why don't you think about it, even if we don't make that money, we should build a house, don't we have to build it? Let's work hard Go to Zhang Luo, it’s not a bad idea to hold the money, besides, we’re not going to force people to find us as contractors, everything has to be done voluntarily!”

Mu Xiang held the teacup that Damei had just brought to her, and this was the beginning of the story, and she didn't want to talk about it any further.Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it must be even more difficult to be the first contractor. If word spreads, people may not know what to say!Lin Fugui and the others are honest farmers, if someone pokes him in the back, it would be better to kill him!
But if this step is taken, will their life be easier in the future?
Thinking of this, she put down her teacup, and said to them seriously: "Uncle Lin, Brother Changshuan, if what I said is wrong, don't take it to heart. In fact, if this job is really done, it must be profitable. For example, this material , you can find a few more and tell them that you are part of the contractor team, and you will build a lot of houses in the future, and you will need a lot of batches. Let them give you the lowest price. I think if they really want to do business, This is not difficult. In addition, you really need to increase the quotation. For example, if you buy seeds to grow vegetables, after you have worked so hard, you will water and fertilize them, grow the seeds into vegetables, and then sell them. Going out, is it several times more than the price of seeds? The reason is the same, the key depends on how you understand, contracting projects is actually the same as farming, don’t you also put in the same labor and effort?”

After her explanation, Lin Fugui felt much more comfortable, and Lin Changshuan's confidence also returned, "Mu Xiang is right, I think this job can be done, dad, I don't want to farm for a lifetime, let's try for two years, If it’s not easy to do, or if you don’t make money, then quit, and no one will force us, Damei, what do you think?”

"Ah? Me?" Damei also kept thinking about her own thoughts. When she heard her brother's name, she immediately made a decision, "I can do it. The three members of our family can all work. In addition to Wang Xi, in my opinion, this matter You and Brother Wang Xi will take the lead, and Dad will be responsible for making ideas, and I can cook for you, we hire people to work, so we have to take care of the food, right?"

Lin Changshuan saw that his sister's analysis was clear and logical, and he couldn't sit still at the moment, so he was in a hurry to discuss it with Wang Xi.When Lin Fugui stopped him, he was very angry and funny, "Mu Xiang is still here, can't you wait for Mu Xiang to finish talking before going? Wang Xi is at home, so he can't run away!"

"Hehe!" Wang Xi scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

Mu Xiang couldn't help but also laughed, "Uncle Lin, Brother Changshuan, do you think this will work? Just use my house as a pilot. In terms of materials, you go to buy. For the bill, you have to make two copies, oh, it's not me. To check the accounts, I was thinking about buying materials in different ways depending on whether the labor is contracted or not. For example, if I buy this material, how much will it cost? You are familiar with this aspect. If you buy it, it will definitely be cheaper than mine. Maybe we can talk about long-term cooperation, and it will be cheaper. In addition, carpenters and other workers, you can also talk to them about long-term wages. As long as there is work, you can go to him. They are cheaper, these are two different prices, when the house is finished, we will know how much money we can make once the house is built, but don’t worry, I won’t give you less money.”
