Building madman

Ge Laosi is an honest and honest rural man.

After the land rights were confirmed in 1997, 30 mu of cotton was contracted from the village.

In the past few years, the scene was not good, the price of cotton was low, and the profit was not much.

But this year the country adjusted its tone and cotton prices rebounded, but a lot of money was left.

Now that the farming work in the cotton field is finished, the eldest son is going to get married again at the end of the year, so he is thinking of making time to build a new house.

Had dinner.

After moving the things in the old house, the big family sat under the eaves, taking off the corn cobs and chatting.

"Father, I called someone in the village today. Dachun and the masters have all returned to the northeast. Xizi and Damao are at home. Uncle (Ge Feng) can come. Xiaotian got into trouble yesterday, and I don't know where to go." Da The son Ge Lei said muffledly.

Old Ge had four cigarettes and frowned, "Where is your second master?"

"Chopping corn stalks the other day, I chopped off my legs, and I'm lying at home."

"Then you buy five catties of eggs tomorrow and see!"

"okay!"

"In this case, you, me, your uncle and second uncle, second uncle, third uncle, Da Mao, and Xiaotian, if they can come, there will be eight small gray workers, which is enough. But the master of the wall is only your uncle and Xizi, two I'm afraid it will be covered for two months, not to mention that your uncle will have to return to the construction site after planting the wheat.

"My father will also build walls, I will call him tomorrow?"

"Lao Zhangren is now in his seventies, don't mess around!"

"Why don't you go to another village and ask?" Ge Lei suggested.

"It's not a relative or a reason, it's enough for someone to come! The time is wrong, if you wait until the end of the year, it will be fine!"

"Xiao Lei gets married at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. How can it be too late at the end of the year?!" The fourth aunt was a little anxious.

"It should have been built last year!"

"You had money last year?"

Old Four Ge was so embarrassed that he stared and said: "You wife••••••"

Bang...

"Four uncle, open the door!"

"Come!" Ge Lei stood up and opened the door: "It's Xiaotian!"

"Why is he here? He's eating and drinking all day, so you shouldn't call him when you build a house!" Old fourth wife Ge mumbled.

"Hey, you mother-in-law, I'll smoke your big mouth... Xiaotian, why are you still bringing things? I've seen you with uncle!"

"Haha, it's a hot day, drink it as a drink!" Ge Xiaotian finished his beer and passed cigarettes one by one, "Uncle Si, I heard that we build a house?"

"Yes, I asked Xiao Lei to invite you in the afternoon. Have you been out to play?"

"Oh! I have a bit of work outside, there is no time to go home after busying!"

After Ge Xiaotian finished speaking, the three Ge old four family looked at each other, full of doubt and contempt, but did not dare to show it.

Who are you bluffing, if you can do business, your old sow can go up the tree!

However, Old Four Ge understood that this was here to shirk and help build the house, and he squeezed a smile:

"Little God, if you're busy, we don't need people."

"Hey, what are you talking about? Uncle Si! Your house is my house. How could it not come!" Ge Xiaotian took out the notepad and picked up a pencil: "Uncle Si, how are you looking for?"

Old Four Ge was a little suspicious and didn't understand what the little overlord in this village was going to do, but after all he was his elder nephew, and said truthfully:

"There are only two masters, and your dad will be back to the construction site in a few days."

"That's it!" Ge Xiaotian looked around the yard.

Cement, sand, white ash, red brick••••••

The materials are almost ready.

Adding the two rows of brick stacks in the hutong, there should be seven to eighty thousand red bricks, and about six houses will be built.

At this time, pouring roofs was not popular, and they were all prefabricated cement boards.

Demolition of houses, foundations, walls, cement boards, roofing, plastering•••••••

If there are only two clay tile masters, work overtime and reduce the construction period by two months!

Ge Xiaotian knew it.

"Uncle Si, how about I settle the bill for you?"

"Huh?" Ge Old Four was puzzled, "what's the bill?"

"Let's build a house, a small hand worker and a clay tile master, why do we need ten people?"

"Correct!"

"Ten people, one less cigarette a day, building a house is a celebration, you can't buy badly?"

Old Four Ge nodded.

"Even if the big chicken Hardman has a good harvest, let's use the red general, the name is festive and domineering, four yuan and five, one is forty-five!"

"For wine, drink Lanling Daqu, it doesn't disperse well, it's six yuan in a bottle, why don't you need five bottles a day? Thirty!"

"Three pieces of chicken, five pieces of pork, five pieces of bean sprouts, cucumber•••••• fresh lotus root••••••celery••••••"

"The construction period counts as two months••••••"

"You also need to bring your own trowel, clay board, and brick trowel••••••"

"Rent steel racks, pumps••••••"

"Trammer 80 per hour••••••"

Ge Xiaotian prepared enough homework today.

In this era, there were no contract workers to build houses in the village.

One is that it seems impersonal to build a house without asking people.

Second, wages are too expensive!

The small worker is 20 a day, and the clay tile master is 40 a day. Overtime is not counted. The foreign workers are lazy. Both the quality and the speed of building a house are not comparable to their own.

Therefore, if you want to win the life of the fourth uncle, you must use a roundabout strategy.

"Just these miscellaneous things add up, not counting materials, how can your house be built, it costs seven or eight thousand!"

Ge Laosi suffocated, and said in a daze, "Seven or eight thousand is not enough, I expect ten thousand!"

Ge Xiaotian nodded without speaking, but turned the notepad to the last page, revealing a few hand-painted apartment types.

Generally speaking, three large rooms are popular in rural areas, that is, the main room is connected to the bedroom, with a side room on the side, or the three are connected together.

If the fourth uncle builds six new houses, regardless of the kitchen and toilet, it will definitely be two sets of three.

He and his fourth aunt use one set for Ge Lei's marriage.

Spacious and bright, the bed can be seen by a guest.

No privacy, no special features.

"Four uncle, look at this, how is the design of the two halls and four rooms?"

"Oh? Let me see!" Ge Laosi took the notepad and made careful gestures: "Oh, this house is beautiful! But the construction method is a bit expensive!"

"How much is the brick? This apartment is no different from that in the city. It's fashionable, exquisite, atmospheric, and versatile!"

"Furthermore, there are 50 flats in the junior room, and 100 flats in two sets! But this method has one hundred and thirty flats!"

As Ge Xiaotian spoke, he took up a pencil and described: "This is a four-eight load-bearing wall, this is a three-seven side wall, and the others are separated by two or four walls, or one and eight walls, or one and two walls.••••••

"The red bricks are at most 10,000 yuan, a sixteen cents, and the total material budget is three thousand yuan if you count the cement sand and steel bars!"

"This is equivalent to buying a big house of 30 square meters for three thousand dollars, how appropriate!"

"And the yard is so big..."

The fourth aunt frowned, "Occupying the yard, how can I dry the grain in the future?"

"Our family doesn't grow food!" Ge Xiaotian kicked the corn on the cob, "I have contracted cotton, so what kind of corn is it planted? When the wheat is ripe, it is put on the wheat field, and when the cotton is ripe, the wheat field is used!"

Old Four Ge nodded, "That's the truth!"

Ge Xiaotian closed the notepad and said, "Four uncles and four aunts Lei Lei, if you say that eight thousand dollars of wallet work is not included, you don't need to worry about the others, you can help you build this apartment in one month, what do you think?"

"Sure!" Aunt Si said first.

Ge Laosi took a deep breath and nodded, "Sure profit without losing!"

Ge Xiaotian rubbed his hands and said with a smile on his face: "I've covered this job!"

"Huh?" The family of three was stunned.
