After Xu Li sent her children to school, she left without saying goodbye and went to her parents' home.
Wu Huiliang still didn't know what his wife was thinking. After asking her for the savings on hand, he invited several big workers and masons from the village to come over and direct them. The other villagers came to help as usual, without asking Wu Huiliang for a penny.
, just two meals will be enough. Soon, the groundwork will begin.
At the same time, according to his own budget, he drove the tractor to a sand and gravel factory in the county.
Use some money to bring back enough cement and bricks.
After laying the foundation, we can start erecting the wall.
Among these masons, one was an acquaintance of Li Dafa.
His name is Li Chenghai, and he is a well-known mason in Lijia Village. He has been working in this industry for more than 20 years, and has accumulated many connections and earned a lot of money. Now, he has his own engineering team, and he can be considered a foreman.
Last night, Li Dafa specially called him to the restaurant at the east end of the village and ordered a table of good wine and food to bribe him.
After learning that he had contracted the project for Wu Huiliang's family, he expressed his intention and asked him to create some trouble while the owner was not paying attention when building the house.
Li Chenghai took advantage of being drunk and agreed to him. No, after starting work today, he was thinking about how to cleverly arrange obstacles.
When it comes to other skills, he may not be as good as others, but when it comes to building a house, there is probably no other person as capable as him in the entire eight villages in Xieying Town. And this skill also includes many links.
.Such as laying the foundation, adding cement, drawing drawings, measuring distances before and after, etc.
Take laying the foundation as an example. Most people think that just leveling the ground under their feet is enough.
As everyone knows, this link is the most difficult to find, and the most taboo is the distance between the neighbors on both sides.
To put it simply, laying the foundation affects the wall. Generally speaking, there will be a small gap between two houses next to each other. This is also the distance between the crops of the two households when the house was built. It does not belong to where.
There is no similar title deed certificate for one household.
But almost every household has acquiesced in their hearts that this alley will belong to them in the future.
If you deliberately move back a little distance when measuring the distance, when you reach the wall, you will occupy a little more area of the alley. By the time the next door is discovered, it will be halfway through the wall. At that time, people will
He would ask Wu Huiliang to reason. Wu Huiliang would ask again and again. As long as no one admitted it, it would all be his responsibility in the end.
You will face three results next.
Do you want to stop the work for rectification and tamp down the bricks that exceed that part?
Do you want to do it? You must follow the land reform law and discuss compensation as appropriate.
Otherwise, there will inevitably be a scolding and a tough battle!
No matter which of these three results, Wu Huiliang would be tortured to death.
In this way, I can also give Li Dafa an explanation.
However, the prerequisite is that Wu Huiliang’s family and villagers are not present.
Li Chenghai thought for a while and finally decided to wait until lunch time to do this quietly while no one was paying attention.
"Er Gouzi, Da Zhuang, come with me." After thinking about it, he called his two most trusted apprentices aside and whispered, "We will do this later..."
The foreign workers had been working all morning, but no ground was broken, and they finally waited until it was time to eat. Wu Huiliang's family and the villagers all went next door. At this time, Li Chenghai took his two apprentices in the middle of the wall next to the neighbor on the left.
, I measured the distance of two centimeters further back, and used chalk to define the boundaries of the fortress wall. After that, I went over to eat as if nothing was wrong.
After the foundation was leveled in the afternoon, I took my engineering team to build the wall.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the wall had already reached the height of an adult and had taken shape.
The left neighbor's family came back from outside and came to check as Li Chenghai expected.
As a result, no one was happy with this inspection. They immediately stopped the engineering team from working and approached Wu Huiliang: "Huiliang, we have been neighbors for decades. There is no need to take advantage of such a small advantage while we are away!"
The neighbor's family on the left is a family of three, and they are also very wealthy. In this poor era, their house has already been built with tiles.
And the person who said this was none other than Zhao Hongsheng, who was one round older than him.
Because of the huge gap between the rich and the poor, the two families rarely work together.
"Brother Zhao, seeing what you said, I'm different from before." Wu Huiliang didn't know what happened yet, so he looked at him and smiled, "Besides, how could you, such a shrewd person, be picked up by me?"
Cheap? Are you right?"
Zhao Hongsheng knew that he was known as a second-rate man, and he also knew what he had done in the village recently.
Although I was a little surprised by what he had done, he kept it in mind and thought about building a house that was taller than theirs in the future. He could occupy every centimeter, and then he pointed to the point beyond the middle of the two walls.
Li Li said: "I'm not kidding you! Look! There was still enough distance between our two families! When my dad built the house, I discussed it with your dad! Most of the gap belongs to us.
Yes! And you, by building a wall, you can occupy several centimeters in one go! Wouldn’t our family suffer this way?”
"Is there such a thing?" Wu Huiliang frowned and walked over to take a look. After seeing that it was exactly what he said, he turned to Li Chenghai and asked him what was going on.
"I don't know. It was obviously fine during the distance measurement, but who knows why it suddenly became like this!" Li Chenghai said, squinting at the workers around him, "Do you know what happened?"
The workers shook their heads repeatedly, "Brother Li, this has nothing to do with us."
"What use do I need from you!" Li Chenghai pretended to scold him. After that, he said to Wu Huiliang with a smile, "Huiliang, you see, my co-workers don't know what's going on. I think it must be
Someone maliciously changed the previous ranging..."
"I know." Wu Huiliang raised his head and breathed a sigh of relief.
Since the matter has already happened, there is no need to hold anyone responsible. It must be dealt with as soon as possible.
He turned to Zhao Hongsheng and said, "Brother Zhao, what do you think we should do?"
"The wall has been built. If it is tamped down, it will affect the durability of the foundation. Brother Zhao is not a bad person, and I don't want to embarrass you too much." Zhao Hongsheng pondered for a while and said seriously, "That's it, you and I will go to the brigade headquarters.
Come and report the situation to Secretary Zhang, and then he will come forward to discuss compensation as appropriate according to the land law. What do you think?"
"This is the only thing we can do." Wu Huiliang said calmly.
Nothing is difficult for him. Although he doesn't have much money on hand at the moment, when it comes to making money, he ranks second in this range, and no one dares to rank first.
Just like every reborn person, the impression of the previous life is there, and it is difficult not to make money.
"Okay, let's go now." Zhao Hongsheng replied without even thinking.
Then we drove away with him on the tractor.
After they leave.
Li Chenghai subconsciously showed a strange smile.
