Chapter 148 If you compare it this way, it's really much better
Wu Wei greeted his master's wife and entered the main hall.
He saw his master, Master Qiao Wuye, squatting at a small square table, wearing reading glasses, checking accounts and calculating wages.
Wu Wei handed him a cigarette, and Master Qiao Wuye raised his head and said, "Come on, sit down."
Then he held the fire handed over by Wu Wei, lit a cigarette, and threw the pencil head.
"After this snow, we have to stay at home until the New Year."
Wu Wei understood, after all, it was the twelfth lunar month.
Even if the snow melted and the temperature rose, people could not be called back.
First, they could not work for a few days before the New Year.
Second, there were many exchanges and things to do in the village during the days before the New Year.
What is the purpose of working hard all year round?
Isn't it just to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet during the New Year!
Wu Wei was quite open-minded, "Don't worry, Master. There will always be a way out when the car reaches the mountain. There is always a solution."
"Besides, if you compare it with last year and the year before, this year's situation..."
Hearing this, Master Qiao Wu finally laughed: "If you compare it this way, it's really much better."
"We rural people have never had a decent way out. This year, I ask you to run out of a smooth road."
Seeing that the master was happy, Wu Wei did not take credit: "Master, without me, this way out will be found sooner or later by someone else."
Master Qiao Wu said with a stern face: "How can it be the same?"
While talking, Qiao Guoliang came over, "What are you talking about? You are so happy?"
Master Qiao Wu was immediately furious and said: "If you have nothing to do, go to the kiln factory to look after the site! Don't stay at home all day to bother me!"
Qiao Guoliang did not dare to be stubborn.
He could only spread his hands to Wu Wei and said, "You've seen it, right? Anyway, no matter what I do, I'm an eyesore to them."
Wu Wei's heart moved, and he turned to ask Master Qiao Wu, "Master, how about I give Third Brother an idea?"
Without waiting for Master Qiao Wu to respond, Qiao Guoliang came over excitedly, "Tell me quickly, what's your idea? I'm bored at home."
Seeing that the master didn't object, Wu Wei continued, "I see that there are a lot of high-end furniture in the village office. Third Brother, you can find a photographer to take pictures of these furniture and make a special album."
"Then Then take these albums and go to the city to sell them and get orders. When you get the orders, let the carpenter team of the fourth master do it. "
When Qiao Guoliang heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said, "I happen to have a few friends who run photo studios, and dealing with people is my strong point!"
After patting his chest, he said shamelessly, "What's the benefit for me?"
Without waiting for Wu Wei to answer, Qiao Wuye was about to hit him with his shoe soles and said, "You want benefits in everything. Is there any honesty?"
Wu Wei stopped his master and said without evasion, "Two points as your commission."
Qiao Guoliang's eyes lit up.
I heard that the furniture made by the fourth uncle was sold at a high price.
Two points may not seem high, but you can actually get a lot.
It's the same as Qin Xiuru's commission at the brick kiln factory, which is mainly based on quantity.
As if he was afraid that his father Qiao Wuye would object, Qiao Guoliang immediately said, "Okay, I'll do it!"
Qiao Wuye glanced at him and said nothing.
Wu Wei continued, "Then it's settled. Come and ask me to reimburse you for the money you spent on taking photos and making albums."
The Qiao Wuye and his wife glared at each other, "It's just a small amount of money, is it worth reimbursing?"
Wu Wei insisted, "Whatever happens, it will be, Master."
Qiao Guoliang spread his hands and said directly, "Anyway, I don't have a penny. Dad, if you are willing to give it to me, I don't care."
Wu Wei smiled and exposed, "Master, if you really give it to him, he will still ask me to reimburse you in the future, do you believe it?"
Qiao Wuye nodded in agreement when he heard it.
Qiao Guoliang looked frustrated, after all, he almost succeeded.
After saying this, Wu Wei gave his master another Huazi, got up and went out.
Seeing this, Cheng Yuejuan hurried over to persuade him, "It's time for dinner, stay for dinner."
Wu Wei waved his hand and said, "Master's wife, it's still early, I'll go home and take a look."
Leaving the Qiao family compound, Wu Wei rode his bike straight to the fenced courtyard.
The snow on the gravel road was half a finger deep, and the wheels might slip a little.
Fortunately, the road was not far away, and Wu Wei pedaled hard and arrived.
The ground in the fenced yard was already white.
There were many footprints on it from the chickens and ducks in the yard, and even the chicken and duck feces were covered.
Wu Wei was not careful and got his feet wet.
He broke a branch from the kitchen and sat at the door of the main hall to pick the wheat.
The wheat fields in the distance gradually turned white.
After cleaning his shoes, Wu Wei went back to the house and grabbed a handful of rice and scattered it on the snow.
The chickens and ducks that were originally strolling around the yard ran over to enjoy this feast.
Wu Wei was about to take the opportunity to catch a duck and bring it back to the county to supplement his youngest sister's nutrition and prepare for the final exam.
Suddenly, a shout from outside the yard scared away the duck that was about to be caught.
"Boss Wu, Boss Wu!"
When Wu Wei heard the voice, he knew that there was no one else except Dong Da.
When the newcomer came through the gap in the fence and went around to the main gate.
Sure enough, it was Dong Da.
"What's the matter? Why are you so loud?"
Dong Da walked straight into the main hall door, stamped his feet, and then went in and grabbed a stool to sit opposite Wu Wei.
One on the left and one on the right, just like two door gods.
Take the cigarette Wu Wei threw over, and shamelessly ask for a lighter, then said: "Kill the pig! Didn't I ask you for it every year? How about I leave you a pig's front leg when the time comes?"
Wu Wei was stunned, it was true.
"When?"
"Tomorrow."
"Okay!" Wu Wei agreed immediately. There was nothing to do in the snow, so come if you want.
But he quickly asked: "When I pump water from the fish pond to catch fish, you have to help me."
Dong Da was stunned, "The question is, where did you get the fish pond?"
Wu Wei said confidently: "There are several fish ponds in the Xishan Brick Kiln Factory!"
"Yes!" Dong Da suddenly realized, "The brick kiln factory is all yours, so the ponds naturally belong to you."
Then he recalled: "In the summer, the damn Fatty Zhou didn't let people fish and chased me away."
Wu Wei laughed, but didn't say anything.
After finishing a cigarette, he refilled it, but he didn't let him smoke it. He said, "Help me, catch that duck."
So the two of them were in the yard, and there was a lot of chickens flying and ducks jumping.
Finally, the duck was caught.
Wu Wei took a moment to weigh it, and it was quite fat. He touched the duck's belly and it seemed to have duck eggs.
If Xiuchun knew this, she would definitely not want to kill it, and keep the eggs to pickle salted duck eggs.
After finishing all this, Dong Da left a message: "You must come tomorrow!" and left in a hurry.
In that way, he was afraid that Wu Wei would draft another strong man.
Wu Wei also pulled a straw rope, tied the duck, tied it to the back seat, turned around, locked the door, stepped on the 28-inch bicycle, and headed straight to the county yard.
