The Story of a Plane Merchant Selling a House

Chapter 49: Enclosure and House Building

But the woman wanted to sell too much land, totaling more than 800 square meters, with a value of more than yuan.

Lai Kan didn't have that much money. The woman knew she didn't have that much money, so she pulled Lai Kan aside and said, "You have stainless steel, so you must be able to get other things, like milk powder, coffee, or something else."

"Sister, I'm just running errands. I have to ask for details."

Lai Di went back and asked Tu Tu, who went directly to the maternity and baby store and bought two boxes of canned milk powder, packed a few cans of coffee in glass bottles for her, and sent the big cake prepared for Lai Di and some brown sugar and white sugar over to her using a small cat house.

Don't worry about the packaging text, the system will automatically eliminate all texts from different time and space.

Lai Kai left the cake in the cat house and returned it to Tutu for temporary storage. She wanted to keep the cake to eat in the new house.

Lai Di did not deliver it directly, but opened the milk powder and made a bowl of milk powder for each of the children at home. My sister had also gotten off work, so Lai Di also made a bowl of milk powder for each of them.

The younger sister was reluctant to drink it and wanted to save it for the child, but Lai Dian stopped her and said, "Drink it all. I still have some. You also need to replenish your body."

The whole family held a bowl of milk, and my sister felt that life was very warm.

"Sister, you will be entering the factory before the New Year, and there are still two months left. But the day after tomorrow I have to pack up and go out with my leader to study. I probably won't be back when you enter the factory, so I asked the older sister I know from the union to take care of you."

Lai Dai told her to go on her business trip without worry as she was at home.

The next day, Xiaokai left his sisters to look after them and went back to the village.

She first went to the house of the aunt next door who was on good terms with her. Both the uncle and aunt were at home watching their children do their homework. "Auntie, my sister needs to find a few villagers to build two walls and give them food directly. Do you think you are free to go?"

The old lady pulled Lai Dian to sit down and said, "Thank you for thinking of your uncle. The fields are not busy now, so I will go with you today."

I came to see that several families needed help cleaning their yards and building walls. You can call a few more people.

The aunt asked the uncle to call a few more old brothers to go together. It was not that she didn't want to find young people for help. Because of the war in the past few years, everyone went out to escape famine. Some people have returned to the village in recent years, but very few, and most of them have disappeared without a trace. Only the old people like them are left in the village.

The old man was very proactive. After he was out for an hour, everyone had packed their tools and gathered together. He even paid a week's worth of food and asked everyone to carry it back first.

Everyone was surprised. They thought they were given coarse grains, but they actually saw so many fine grains.

The old lady advised her, "Maybe you're giving too much. If you switch to fine grains, you should give less."

Lai Di shook his head and said, "No, because you have to take a car to and from, and the cost is also included in it."

In fact, she is really helping everyone. During the war a few years ago, she was with her children and the villagers helped her a lot.

Their village has a small population, only about twenty households, so she can only do her best.

She rented a bullock cart to take everyone to the east, and told everyone to clear two plots of land first, and then build walls along the marked lines, at least two meters long.

The uncles put down their things and started to work. Lai Dian went back to boil some brown sugar water and brought it over in a kettle. The uncles drank the water from their own bowls and felt that Lai Dian was a very generous person.

The uncles did not take the bus at night. They worked until dark and then walked back together in the dark.

After seeing this, I feel that this is not a good idea. At this time, there are still wolves on the road, and it is not safe for the old men to go back too late.

I came to see and ordered a large 7-square-meter storage cabin from Tutu.

Let Tutu prepare more food and other good things that are easy to sell to fill the storage cabin.

Tutu planned to make full use of the space in the wooden house, so she went to a large supermarket.

Brown sugar is the easiest to sell, come with dozens of bags.

Rock sugar, can eliminate phlegm and relieve dryness, give me dozens of bags.

Soap, come and see, it’s said to sell the fastest, it costs a few hundred yuan.

I chose milk powder in cans. In that era, there was a shortage of sugar and fat, so I needed dozens of cans of infant milk powder and a dozen cans of sweet milk powder for teenagers.

There is a lot of coffee in the supermarket, pick a few bottles in glass jars.

Finally, the rest of the space is used to store food.

Put the full wooden house on the shelf.

Let's take out the supplies from the rented house while no one is there, and temporarily move them to Tutu's empty house to store them.

Then release it in the leeward open space in a half-collapsed yard in the distance among the ruins in the east.

Tutu also has a 4-square-meter storage hut that she has temporarily used for storage. Together with this -square-meter hut, the two huts are enough for them if they squeeze in.

The next night, we asked the old men to carry their quilts and live in the two wooden houses for ten days or half a month. However, they disagreed, saying that such beautiful wooden houses must not be dirty.

Lai Kan explained that it was a wooden shed for storage that she was selling on behalf of someone else. It hadn't been sold yet, so she just needed to clean it up after use.

The uncles agreed and came the next day carrying their bedding.

The seven-square-meter wooden house can be used for living except in winter, not just for storage.

It attracted inquiries from many passers-by. Knowing that it was a storage shed, several of them were interested in asking the price and came to see it. They said that they still needed it now and if they wanted to use it, they could sell it in half a month. If they wanted to order a new one, they would have to wait a month or two. Several people agreed to come back to see it in half a month.

Lai Kan put four cans of milk powder, two cans of coffee, two boxes of soap, and a few bags of rice on a cart and sent it to the woman in the exquisite courtyard.

The woman opened it and took a look. She opened a corner of the powdered milk, took a little, and put it in her mouth, very anxiously, "Can you give me a few more cans? My daughter has no milk, and my grandson needs milk powder very much. I will take as much as you can, all of it."

Lai Di saw that there were more than 50 cans of baby formula powder that had not been delivered, and more than a dozen cans of sweet milk powder for teenagers. The woman bought all the baby formula powder and all the teenager formula powder. Lai Di was shocked at her wealth. After all, the woman asked for yuan for a can of milk powder, and this item alone was more than yuan.

After solving the imminent milk powder problem, the woman finally calmed down. She was in the mood to pour a few grains of coffee to taste, and ordered six more bottles of coffee, two boxes of soap and a few bags of rice.

In the end, I had to pay 2980 yuan to have everything delivered.

The woman discussed with her about using the title deed to the east side as collateral, "My land is more than 800 square meters. You can also give me something else to pledge for the extra land. Whether it's food or soap, I like them all. The land is all together. I have a bigger piece of land. I plan to build a small house next year. We can be neighbors then." Lai Kan agreed and went to the Housing Management Office together to transfer the ownership.

When he returned to the rental house, he pushed a few bags of grain to the woman in the exquisite courtyard to make up the difference.

After going back to the east and drawing a line with the surveyors, I asked the uncles to clean up this area as well, saying that these were friends' lands and they would give me more food for each day I worked.

She went back to get the white flour and exchanged it for a large bag of multi-grain steamed buns at the steamed bun shop. She also took the pickled vegetables she had made from her sister and left the outdoor stove and kettle with the old man so that they could boil water and heat their own meals.
