Chapter two hundred and fourteen classmates reunion
????
Shen Chi hurriedly said to his father: "They are not here to get the original solution of medicinal materials."
Shen Changlin was surprised when he heard this: "If they are not here to get the raw liquid of medicinal materials, then what are they here for?" "Their factory eliminated a batch of experimental instruments. I bought them for experiments, and they came to install them for me. Instrument." Shen Chi replied.
"Where is the instrument? I'll go take a look. Can you do experiments? Why did you buy this instrument?" Shen Changlin asked in shock.
"It's in my research room." Shen Chi replied.
When Shen Changlin went to Shen Chi's research room, he saw a room full of fluorescent instruments that made him dizzy. "Do these instruments cost a lot of money?" Shen Changlin asked carefully.
"Only a few hundred thousand," Shen Chi replied.
Shen Changlin gasped when he heard this. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he was still shocked and speechless when he heard that so much money was required.
I originally wanted to say something to Shen Chi, but I realized that Shen Chi earned all the money himself and didn't spend a penny on it.
On the contrary, Shen Chi earns a large part of the family's savings now.
This son could spend money and make money, so Shen Changlin had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. Seeing that his father didn't ask too much after seeing those system instruments, Shen Chi couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally got through it.
Thinking about it, Shen Changlin is just a farmer who has never seen much of the world. How can he know so much about these high-tech things?
Although he was fooled in front of his father, there is no guarantee that other knowledgeable people will not see it in the future and cause unnecessary trouble. Shen Chi then confessed to his father: "Dad, the instruments in my laboratory are very expensive. I will not use them in the future." Never let anyone else come into my room when I’m at home.”
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of such a valuable thing for you. When you are not here, I will lock your room." Shen Changlin said.
Even if Shen Chi didn't explain, Shen Changlin would keep an eye on the door for him. In his opinion, what was in this room was not instruments, but hundreds of thousands of dollars.
As Shen Changlin spoke, he left Shen Chi's research room. At this time, Mrs. Xiao and several other old ladies had already prepared lunch and were calling Shen Chi and the others to go out for dinner.
Shen Chi responded and followed his father out of the room.
The food was on the table. Shen Chi glanced around, but didn't see Teacher Huang. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "The teacher is here, why don't you see him coming out to eat?"
Mrs. Zeng smiled and said, "He went to feed the pigs and will be back soon."
While talking, I saw Teacher Huang walking into the yard carrying a wooden bucket for feeding pigs.
"Teacher, if you are not in good health, you should rest more. How can you do this kind of physical work?" Shen Chi quickly went out and took the bucket from the teacher.
"My health is much better. This is not a heavy job. It just happens to exercise and exercise, which will also help with recovery." Teacher Huang replied with a smile.
"Xiao Chi is right, how can I let you do this work?" Shen Changlin also said.
"I also saw that you were all busy, so I thought of helping you." Teacher Huang washed his hands, sat on the table, took the meal from his wife, and smiled at Shen Changlin while eating.
"Dad, our farm has fewer people and more work, so it's time to hire some people." Shen Chi took the opportunity to say to his father. "It's really time to hire some people. Look how tired Zhiguo and his wife are. Now Weiguo and his shop are doing well. They are gradually getting better, they are also busy, and things on the farm are not easy to cause trouble for them." Mrs. Hu also said to her son Shen Changlin.
Fan Zhiguo and his wife hurriedly said: "It should be."
Zeng also said: "No matter how busy you are, all you need to do on the farm is give instructions.
The store was still developed with Xiaochi's support. Wouldn't it be too ungrateful for us to just focus on the store?"
"Help is help, and this person should be hired. It is true that the work on the farm today is not something that these few people can do. Shen Chi said to his father: "Dad, why don't you hire someone? Isn’t all my money with you? Why do I have to save those two dollars and make people tired and sick?
Not worth it."
Shen Changlin replied: "Don't I want to invite someone? Nowadays, more and more people come to Songzhen to travel. Everyone is busy with their own small business, and few people go out to help others.
And now that the second phase of Song Town’s renovation project is about to start again, even fewer people can be invited. "The second phase of Song Town’s renovation project? I never heard of Song Town being renovated in the past. Shen Chi was thinking in his heart I was secretly surprised and felt that I was reborn, maybe because of my butterfly effect, many things were different from the previous life.
"Is this accurate?" Shen Chi asked his father.
"The news has been released. During the time when you were taking the high school entrance examination, the Land Bureau has sent people to register the land, population and houses in Xiaojia Village. Your cousin's house will also be expropriated. For this reason, you My aunt even made a special trip back." Shen Changlin said.
It seemed like it was a done deal, Shen Chi thought to himself.
"Dad, do you know why Song Town started the second reconstruction project?" Shen Shi was really curious about things that had never happened in his previous life.
"I heard that there were too many shops built in the first phase of the project and too much commercialization, which made the town lack humanistic atmosphere.
The second phase of the project has the theme of building a Jiangnan water town. The entire Xiaojia Village next to Song Town will be requisitioned, and a large garden will be built to enhance Song Town’s tourism capabilities. And now it has begun to dig water canals "Yes." Shen Changlin replied.
"But our farm has to invite people." Shen Chi said worriedly.
At this time, Mrs. Zeng said, "If you really want to invite someone, I will talk to my eldest daughter-in-law Lamei some other time and ask her to inquire in her natal village if there is any suitable person."
"That's great." Shen Changlin said happily.
"How many people do you plan to invite?" Zeng asked again.
Shen Changlin was about to say that five or six people would be enough, but Shen Chi quickly said: "The more, the better, 20 people is not too many."
Shen Changlin frowned: "How did you get so many people?"
"Why not? Just the feed for our chickens, ducks, pigs, and sheep requires several people every day, as well as the harvesting and storage of those fields and grass every day." Shen Chi retorted.
"But isn't this what we do every day?" Shen Changlin always felt that it was too much money to invite so many people.
Shen Chi continued to argue: "That's because the master ladies and others share the work of cutting feed for you every day. The old ladies are also old, you can't always count on them."
The old ladies of the Zeng family and the Zhao family were restless and did all the work they could do for Shen Changlin and the others every day. Otherwise, Shen Changlin and the others would be really busy.
Shen Changlin was speechless now.
"Another important point is that our 100 acres of fruit trees have all matured this year, and even 20 people might not be enough to take care of it." Shen Chi said another reason why he needed to hire more people.
At this time, Gui Shuzhen also said: "Xiao Chi is right, the money must be spent as it should be." "Then please hire someone. I'll ask Sister Lazhi to help with this matter." Shen Changlin said to Zeng. .
"I have a great-nephew in my family who lost his mother when he was a child, and his father was not up to par. He was idle all day long and liked to gamble, so he worked outside after graduating from elementary school.
When I returned to the village a few days ago, I saw him back and now he has learned the skills of a chef.
This child has been able to endure hardships since he was a child, but he is not very old. If you don't mind it, I can call him here." This is what Teacher Huang put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and suddenly said.
"Mr. Huang, how can we dislike the person you recommended? Let's call him over another day." Shen Changlin said.
So the matter of inviting people was discussed during the meal.
After dinner, Mrs. Zeng went down to Leigongping, and first went to the egg shop in the town, where she met her eldest daughter-in-law Gan Lamei and told her that Shen Chi's family wanted to hire someone.
Gan Namei agreed immediately and promised to go back to her parents' home tomorrow.
After saying this, Mrs. Zeng went back to Huangjia Village to find her cousin's grandnephew.
When he brought people to Lei Gongping,
At that time, Shen Chi was also surprised. The cousin Shen Chi mentioned by Teacher Huang actually knew him as his elementary school classmate Huang Dong.
"Huang Dong, it's you!" Shen Chi shouted to Huang Dong with a face of surprise.
We haven't seen each other for three years. Huang Dong has grown taller. But he is very thin and looks like a bamboo pole. "Shen Chi!" Huang Dong was also very surprised and said: "I didn't expect to meet you here. My third grandma said that someone wanted to Invite someone, it turns out it’s your family.”
When Mrs. Zeng saw that Shen Chi and Huang Dong knew each other, she was very happy and said: "You guys know each other just right, so Dongzi won't feel restricted."
Shen Chi took Huang Dong to the house where Lei Maolin and his mother lived before. Now Zhao has moved to the house where Lei Maolin and Shen Aizhi lived.
Huang Dong's luggage was very simple, a small package containing a few changes of clothes for summer.
Shen Chi found the bed sheets from the cabinet in the room and was about to make the bed for Huang Dong, but he snatched it away: "I should do it, how can I let the master of the house make the bed for me?"
Seeing Huang Dong making fun of himself, Shen Chi was slightly surprised. He felt that he talked a lot more than when he was in elementary school.
Perhaps it was three years of social exploration that forced him, who was originally introverted and taciturn, to change himself and become cheerful and outgoing.
"You are good at making fun of people." Shen Chi smiled and said, "I remember you were very taciturn when I was in school."
"After three years of wandering outside, I have come into contact with more people, and naturally I have become more talkative." Huang Dongzhuangruo said casually.
But Shen Chi heard the bitterness in his words. Huang Dong's extroversion was, to put it bluntly, just a disguise under coercion.
In essence, he is still the little boy with a fragile and sensitive heart and low self-esteem.
Seeing Huang Dong in front of him, Shen Chi unconsciously remembered that when he went to the county park to play that year, Huang Dong broke off the bamboo shoots in the park's bamboo forest.
