Reborn to be rich

Chapter 73

"Third Uncle, Third Aunt, last year I was ignorant and got into trouble, which hurt my parents! If it wasn't for Guodong who sent me a message, I might still be hiding outside! Let you worry!" Zhang Zehui bowed his head and said , he is half a year older than Zhang Guodong. The two grew up together and went to elementary school and junior high school together, but he came back after only half a year in high school.

"What have you been doing outside this year? Didn't your second uncle and elder brother find you a job? Why are you running around?" Hu Yuee asked, wiping away her tears.

"Working in a textile factory requires identification. I didn't want to hurt my second uncle and elder brother, so I left! In the end, I worked as a porter in Chang'an Brewery for 3 months. The salary was good but I couldn't learn any skills. Finally, a worker introduced me. Going to the brick and tile kiln, at that time, the inspection in the city happened to be strict, so I went to Sanyuan County."

Zhang Zehui narrated his experience this year. How could Zhang Guodong not know the hardships of being alone outside, and he was still a person who did not dare to reveal his identity.Zhang Zehui omitted all the bad things, and talked more about the happy things. Zhang Guodong felt relieved seeing that he was not like the bastard he would be in the future.

"So you already have a daughter-in-law? When will you bring it for my third aunt to see?" Hu Yue'e asked happily when she heard that Zhang Zehui had met his girlfriend.

"She's still keeping accounts at the brick kiln! I'll bring it back to show my uncles and aunts after a while. By the way, you've been the captain since I wasn't in Guodong for a year? And those three big guys in the yard, I heard everyone called you Zhang Wanwan!" Zhang Zehui patted Zhang Guodong on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Now the national policy is different. As long as you are willing to work hard and use your brains, it is easy to make money. Third brother, don't go to Sanyuan in the future. Find a chance to bring your sister-in-law back, and we brothers will do a big job together!" Zhang Guodong said.

"Guodong, to tell you the truth! Our factory manager is very kind to me in the brick factory. I have basically done no physical work in the kiln this year. Now the master master in the factory has been at home for more than a month. My partner is the factory manager. My daughter, she will definitely think about me when I have her!" Zhang Zehui said shyly.

"Third brother, I said you are wrong! Just say that you have been working in the brick factory of your sister-in-law and she will be happy? After you two get married, do you want to work forever? You have seen the situation in our village. Miss it This opportunity to go back to the village is waiting for you to return home, maybe every family will build small western-style houses and buy motorcycles! You said that you only earn 20 yuan a month doing heavy work in brick kilns."

Seeing Zhang Zehui hesitate, Zhang Guodong persuaded again: "Third brother, I think you should go back to the village and open a brick factory yourself. Your small brick factory only produces how many bricks a month. When you come back to our village, we can open a large brick factory. There is no brick factory near Ganjing Township, and the quality of our clay is much better than that in Sanyuan County, so by then, the villages near Ganjing Township will not buy bricks from us?"

Zhang Zehui thought for a while, he is a person with strong self-esteem, and he would definitely not want to live under the eyes of his father-in-law for the rest of his life.

"Let's not talk about a large brick factory, a medium-sized brick factory can't be run without 30 yuan." Zhang Zehui said.

"You don't have to worry about the money. I will discuss with the village committee about opening the brick factory. When the time comes, you will take care of the brick factory. What do you think?"

"My dad came back today, and my grandpa told me not to go out. I brought 180 yuan home this time. I wanted to make my family happy. I didn't expect that we even bought a tractor this year. In a few days I Just go back to Sanyuan."

"Okay, when the time comes, see if there are skilled workers who are willing to come to our village, especially masters who can repair brick machines. I plan to go to the village after tomorrow and open the brick factory as soon as possible."

Opening a brick factory is something that Zhang Guodong has been thinking about for a long time. The brick factory transports soil, makes bricks, and pulls bricks. Transportation is inseparable. A medium-sized brick factory that produces 1 bricks needs at least 10 tractors to turn around. Opening, plus loading and unloading, mixing, management and other personnel, at least can solve the work of more than 50 people. With a brick factory and then cooperate with the building materials company of the Wu brothers, there is no reason not to make money.

Zhang Zehui left, and Zhang Guodong notified all the village committees to discuss the opening of the brick factory the next day, and the result of the discussion was unanimously approved.

"Since everyone agrees to open a brick factory, and I don't want to just open a small brick kiln, then I will go to the village in the afternoon and try to find a way to invite experts from the city to open our village to see what is suitable for building a brick factory. I will start after the spring Build brick factories and factory buildings, now let’s discuss how to pay for the money.”

The discussion is actually very simple. Everyone basically tends to the village shareholding system. Try to let everyone participate, but it is not good to divide too many shares. In the end, everyone unanimously decided:
The brigade department invested 5 yuan, accounting for 30% of the shares.Each household of the villagers contributes 1000 yuan to take up 1% of the shares, and Zhang Guodong alone collects 30 yuan to take up all the remaining shares. The ownership of the brick factory belongs to the village brigade. Zhang Guodong seems to have suffered a lot, but if the brick factory is really profitable , he earns the most.

The news could not be disseminated. Zhang Guodong went to the village in the afternoon. The township government had already started work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Brick machine manufacturers, brick factory construction companies.

"Guodong, tomorrow I will go to the city with you to pick up experts. I just asked the brick machine factory. A medium-sized brick machine production line costs 4 yuan. The transportation personnel can be responsible for guiding for half a month. A medium-sized brick making machine can press 4 red bricks a day, and if you plan to invest 6000 yuan to start a brick factory, you can introduce 30 brick making machines.” Dou Jinpeng analyzed the construction of the brick factory to Zhang Jialing.Zhang Guodong underestimated the current strength of the RMB. There are not hundreds of people who can make bricks with a daily output of 4 red bricks.

The next day, Zhang Guodong came to get on the tractor and Dou Jinpeng went to Qindu City, and took two experts to Zhangjialing Village. Zhang Guodong and the three captains unanimously decided to open the brick factory in the north of the third team, where there are many ditches and soil, which pollutes the village small.

Experts went around Zhangjialing Village. The quality of clay in Zhangjialing Village is very good. The loess plateau is originally a place with better clay quality, and Zhangjialing Village is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, so it is suitable for building a brick factory.

The location of the brick factory was determined, and Zhangjialing Village held a general meeting of the villagers. Everyone was very happy that the brick factory was going to be built in the village. At this time, few people cared about these air pollution issues, but everyone expressed that the 1000 yuan investment fee was unacceptable. , Zhangjialing Village now has no more than 15 families with thousands of yuan.

In the end, many families can only combine 2 to 4 households into one share, so why is this matter settled.

The village brigade now only has more than 2 yuan left in the account, and the money for Xianbao and Zhuang bases has almost been spent. Zhang Guodong can only advance the payment for the village brigade first, and wait for the Yaozipo project to be completed, and then calculate together.

Zhang Guodong's down payment for the project last year plus his family's clothing business during the Chinese New Year, now only has about 10 yuan in his family, so there is still a shortfall of 15 yuan to start a brick factory.Zhang Guodong plans to build the brick factory first after the beginning of spring, because the site of the ditchside brick factory is uneven, and excavators and loaders are needed for construction and leveling.Finally, there are some construction and material costs. 10 yuan is almost enough to build a brick factory.

When the brick factory is completed, Zhang Guodong's mechanical vehicles will start construction. At that time, there will be income from selling yellow stones. At that time, it will not be too late to buy brick machines, coal, mixers, etc.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Gong Xiaoqing took a group of teachers and students away. Before leaving, he touched Zhang Xiaoyue's head and wanted to accept her as an apprentice. It is very formal for an opera teacher to accept an apprentice. Under the witness of Zhang Guodong's parents, Zhang Xiaoyue kowtowed to Gong Xiaoqing After three heads, and then handed tea, she will be Zhang Xiaoyue's official master from now on.

Although Zhang Xiaoyue is lazy, she is very hardworking in music, and she is smart and was directly attracted by Gong Xiaoqing. Before leaving, Zhang Xiaoyue pulled Gong Xiaoqing's clothes and cried non-stop.

"Just now, Teacher Gong wanted to take your fourth younger sister to study in an opera school. Why didn't you agree?" My father always felt that it was a great thing to be able to send his children to an opera school.

"Singing is fine, but if you want to make singing a career, forget it! In the future, with the development of information and communication, there will be fewer and fewer people watching operas. It's better for the fourth sister to go to school. If she likes music in the future, we can let her Go to art school."

After hearing Zhang Guodong's words, Zhang Chenglin and his wife didn't say anything more, they still agreed with their son's vision.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, it’s time for the children to start school. On this day, the gong and drum team in the village finally ceased fire. After more than ten days, everyone still couldn’t play the drums taught by Zhang Guodong. For non-professionals, this drum is still too difficult up.

The self-music class of the brigade department has started to sing again. This time, the number of accompaniment in the self-music class has exceeded 10. Everyone has already mastered various musical instruments, and the accompaniment has already had some professional taste. It seems that the teacher is really welcome this time. Every afternoon, as long as the villagers are free, they will go to the brigade department to listen to and sing a few verses, and Zhang Guodong can see people from other villages every time.

On the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Zehui came back. This time he came back alone, and he had agreed to resign with his original boss. His girlfriend was not very happy. Zhang Zehui said that when the brick factory was built, he would invite three friends to help , are all experienced brick-burning masters, and one of them can repair brick machines.

The days of waiting are difficult. Zhangjialing Village usually does not thaw until the end of the first lunar month. On the 27th of the first lunar month, all the snow on the ground has finally disappeared. Zhang Guodong notified the members of the machinery cooperative to start working!

It was still a little early for the Yaozipo project to start, so Zhang Guodong drove to the planned site of the Sandugou Brick Factory.To build a brick factory with a daily production capacity of 24000 bricks requires an area of ​​at least 20 acres. Zhang Guodong drove an excavator to dig out the mountain mounds on the planned site of the brick factory, and let the tractor transport it to a deep ditch in the distance. It took only three days for a loader to shovel and level a flat land of more than 30 mu.

Zhang Guodong filled the foundations of the brick kilns and factory buildings, and repaired the entire brick factory. The tractors in the village bought back the red bricks, refractory bricks, cement, steel bars, sand, cement and even the door frame buckets used in the construction of the brick factory.The construction team introduced by the county also arrived in time. Zhang Guodong left Zhang Xiaoliang and Zhang Zehui to supervise the progress and quality of the project. He took three mechanical vehicles and turned to Yaozipo, where he could dig stones again.

On the 19th day of the first lunar month, Yaozipo became lively again. There were 30 tractors in Zhangjialing Village and more than 300 tractors in foreign villages. There were more than [-] people working on the battlefield. As soon as Zhang Guodong let out his voice, there were so many people who arrived at the construction site one step earlier than the Zhangjialing villagers in the early morning, and Zhang Guodong couldn't drive anyone back at this time.

With more vehicles, the project speed began to increase a lot. On the first day, even though the land was not completely thawed, Zhang Guodong dug 6500 tons of earthwork a day, of which more than 460 tons of yellow stones were dug out.

Zhang Guodong earned nearly 460 yuan a day when 6000 tons of yellow stones were sent to the main road under construction in Ganjing Township. Among them, Zhang Guodong earned more than [-] yuan after excluding the transportation costs of other people's tractors and labor costs.

In the next few days, when the land was completely thawed, Zhang Guodong’s excavation speed increased significantly, with a daily transportation volume of 8000 square meters and more than 500 tons of yellow stone. Road construction in Ganjing Township started again, especially in the village. On the main road, professional road construction workers can be seen busy every day. Ganjing Township has started to be busy again after a winter slump.

Zhangjialing Village has also been very busy in the past few days. In addition to the construction of the brick factory, houses at Guanlukou have also begun to be built under the leadership of Zhang Chengdong, as well as the village brigade headquarters, the village water tower, and the village primary school.

The village brigade headquarters was demolished and rebuilt, while the primary school was built in the west for the second phase. The number of people from outside the village began to increase. Many villagers in the surrounding villages were either working at the Yaozipo construction site or working in Zhangjialing Village. Zhangjialing Village is located in the western part of Ganjing Township. The status began to rise invisibly.

The money from the brigade was spent like running water. In the first ten days of February alone, Zhangjialing paid more than 5 yuan. He calculated his own investment. This year, when the Yaozipo project was completed, the village brigade had to pay back the dividends of the village brigade.

By mid-February, the Gregorian calendar has entered March, and the earth began to warm up. Everyone began to take off their cotton clothes. The willow trees beside the fishing pond had begun to sprout. Uncle Ba filled the fishing pond with water as soon as the water tower pump was installed. , when spring comes, many villagers need to pull vegetable seedlings and plant trees from the fishing pond. The fishing pond has been cleaned up last winter, and the water looks clearer this year.

"Guodong!"

Zhang Guodong was digging the soil while operating the excavator. He heard the eighth uncle shouting from down the slope. The original plan was to shovel a gap of 200 meters. Now, half of the soil has been dug for a section. It won’t be long before the new Yaozipo The road can be opened, and Zhang Guodong's construction will become more convenient.

"Uncle Ba, what do you want from me?" Zhang Guodong asked Uncle Ba next. He was recently in charge of the construction of the water tower and brigade headquarters in the village. Zhang Guodong was worried that something might go wrong.
