"Have you heard? The team is going to build houses for us!" A middle-aged woman ran over excitedly and said to several people working in the fields. As she spoke, she grinned, and her already round face looked even rounder.

"What! Build a house??!! Auntie, who told you that?" The young woman, Jiang Xiaoya, who was working seriously, heard her words, quickly put down the tools in her hands and asked.

Several people nearby also came over and said, working is not as important as building a house!

When the round-faced middle-aged woman heard the question, she replied, "Accountant Liu said so." Ever since Accountant Zhang was reported by his daughter, the commune leaders chose Liu Weiguo as the new accountant.

"Accountant Liu? Who told him that? How can the brigade have the money to build houses for us?" Before the young woman could say anything, a young man next to her asked.

The round-faced woman continued to explain: "Didn't the commune leaders come over for a meeting just now? It seemed that Director He said at the meeting that Director He said he would pay for us to build a house." The smile on her face grew bigger as she spoke.

Building a house is a big deal. How can they not be happy when someone pays them to build a house!

The young man who asked the question just now couldn't help laughing when he heard this. His family was poor and he had many brothers and sisters. Studying was expensive nowadays, so he dropped out of school after the second grade. Without any academic qualifications, the factory's recruitment naturally had nothing to do with him.

The brigade is developing better and better, and it is impossible to say that his family has no impact at all. His family has made a lot of money from growing oilseeds and greenhouses this year, but because he has two unmarried brothers, the money must be used to help them get married first. The most expensive part of getting married is building a house, so if the brigade can help them build a house, that would be great!

But is the oil mill that rich? There are hundreds of households in the brigade. How much money would it cost to build a new house for each family?

The young man still couldn't believe it, but he still had some expectations.

When a few people were talking excitedly, Accountant Liu came.

After seeing off the commune leaders, Accountant Liu had nothing to do, so he thought of going to the fields to see how everyone was working. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he saw a few people gathered together chatting.

Accountant Liu frowned. It was not time to get off work yet, so why were they chatting? These people were not usually lazy people.

He walked over with a frown, wanting to ask what was going on. When he got closer, he heard them excitedly talking about the brigade paying for the construction of the house. As he listened, Accountant Liu's face changed.

Oh my god, the brigade paid for building the house? ? Who spread this rumor?

"Where did you hear this news?" Accountant Liu interrupted as they heard their stories getting more and more outrageous.

"Accountant Liu, when did you come?"

"I've been here a long time ago. You guys were chatting so seriously that you didn't notice me." Accountant Liu said unhappily.

The young man, Li Jianjun, smiled guiltily. This was the first time he was lazy since he started working at the age of twelve and he was caught. How could he not feel guilty? Now Li Jianjun just hoped that Accountant Liu would be magnanimous and not care about his laziness.

The middle-aged woman was not as thin-skinned as Li Jianjun. When she heard what Accountant Liu said, she smiled and explained, "I heard what you said."

Accountant Liu was confused, "When did I say that?"

The middle-aged woman said, "Just now, I heard you and the captain talking about this."

Accountant Liu thought for a while before remembering that after seeing off the leaders, he and the team leader had discussed He Cheng's suggestions for a while, and the aunt might have heard it at that time.

He said helplessly, "Aunt, you heard wrongly. The oil mill is not that rich to pay for building houses for everyone. Director He said he would pay half of the money and everyone has to pay the other half."

When they heard Accountant Liu's denial, the five people showed disappointment on their faces. But after hearing what happened next, the disappointment turned into excitement.

They even felt more at ease.

In fact, when they heard Aunt Hua say that the brigade would pay for building the house, they were indeed very excited, but they also felt a little bit of disbelief. After all, this was not a small amount of money. Although the oil press factory made a lot of money, it also had a lot of expenses. They also had to build a new factory building, and they might not have that much money. Now that they heard Accountant Liu say that the brigade would only pay for half of the money, they felt relieved.

This is still more likely to be achieved!

The brigade's factory has developed well this year. The brigade takes care of everyone. Almost every household has workers working in the factory. For orphans and widows who have no one to work, the brigade also provides them with odd jobs, so everyone has saved a lot of money.

When you have money, you want to change your living environment. The team leader’s proposal hits the mark.

Aunt Hua, the middle-aged woman, asked excitedly, "Will you really pay half of the money?"

Accountant Liu smiled and nodded. "That's what Director He said at the meeting. The team leader and the commune leaders have no objections, so there should be no problem."

"Oh, that's great! Hahaha, I have to go home and discuss with my children how to build the house." Aunt Hua said with a smile.

Li Jianjun, who was standing by and heard Accountant Liu's answer, almost laughed his eyes out.

The people around him also had happy faces.

Accountant Liu saw how excited they were and said helplessly, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's not time to get off work yet. Let's talk about it after we get off work. Let's get back to work."

The last sentence was obviously referring to the fact that they were just chatting instead of working.

"Okay." Li Jianjun replied obediently.

He was already feeling guilty about being lazy, so after what Accountant Liu said, he naturally became more honest.

"Don't worry, Accountant Liu. We were just curious just now. Now that you have solved our doubts, we will naturally not discuss it anymore. Besides, don't you know how efficient I am at work? I will continue to work right now. This little job can be finished in a while." Aunt Hua replied with a grin.

Accountant Liu smiled and nodded. He was also an ordinary farmer and understood their feelings very well, so he would not blame them. Besides, these people were not the kind of people who liked to be lazy and make trouble. It was just this time, a special situation, and Accountant Liu was not so petty.

"Okay, do your job well. By the way, regarding the house building matter, you guys should keep a low profile for now and don't tell anyone about it. Once it's finalized, the team leader will notify everyone." Accountant Liu instructed.

"Yeah, don't worry."

“We definitely won’t say it on our own initiative.”

"Yes, yes, we will just talk to our family and won't tell anyone else."

After hearing their answers, Accountant Liu waved his hand and left.

He still has to go somewhere else to check on everyone's work progress.

At the same time, in the oil press factory, He Cheng was talking with others about building houses for the team members.

And this person was none other than Zhang Xue who had returned from Hai City.
