Mei Zhonghua walked back with Mei Xiaoran. As soon as she walked into the small street, Mei Xiaoran exclaimed, "Dad, I saw that Uncle Pang was standing outside our house just now, you ride faster."
"It's the man in the grey tunic who is standing outside the building?"
"Yes, that's the one, you go faster."
Mei Zhonghua also noticed that person, and coupled with the reminder of the girl, he rode the bike faster, and the wheel was pedaled several times, and he reached the door of the house.
The surname Pang saw Mei Xiaoran jumping off the bicycle and said happily, "Girl, are you back?"
Mei Xiaoran quickly pushed her dad forward, "Uncle Pang, this is my dad. Tell him what's the matter."
"Brother Pang Da, come in and talk."
Mei Zhonghua opened the gate and pushed the bicycle into the yard as he spoke.
The surnamed Pang was humble for a while, and then walked into the courtyard.
"Brother, my name is Mei Zhonghua, what's your name?"
"My name is Pang Hai, and I live in Nanguan Caishi Street."
Caishi Street and Xiaojiefang are two adjacent streets. Although they belong to Dongguan and Nanguan, they are actually very close. When Xiaolou walks to the east end, it is Caishikou.
"Big Brother Pang Hai, let's go to the house and have a cup of tea."
Mei Zhonghua has been doing business all these years, and she will always come to see people and hospitality.
Pang Hai shoved a few words in embarrassment, and followed Mei Zhonghua to sit in the yard, drinking tea and chatting.
Mei Xiaoran pulled the coal stove aside, and quietly leaned over to listen to them chatting.
"Brother Mei, let's not talk about your house. I'm the gate of your house in the truth. Where did you find the craftsman? Why did you make it so stylish and beautiful?"
"Ge Pang joked. This is what I suddenly thought of when I repaired the door of the building. I made it myself."
Pang Hai was overjoyed, "Do you still do this? Do you have this kind of craft?"
"Well, rural people, it's not easy to make clay tiles?"
"So your family is in the countryside? If I want you to help build a courtyard wall, I wonder if your brother Mei will help?"
"Then what's wrong, I'll go back to my hometown and talk about it, isn't it about arranging a few brothers to come and help..."
Pang Hai was very happy to see Mei Zhonghua agreeing, "Brother Mei is really willing to do this favor?"
"Brother Pang, we live again
Not far away, if you can trust me, I will help you with this job. "
Seeing that Pang Hai behaved and dressed like an intellectual, Mei Zhonghua had some worries, but now she sincerely wants to survive.
"Brother Mei, this is what you said? I will take it as you agreed!"
Pang Hai was also a happy person, and the matter was finalized in a few words.
Mei Xiaoran said next to him, "Dad, don't worry about the lunch for lunch, I'll do it. Why don't you go over with Uncle Pang now and see how the house is built?"
Pang Hai also had this intention. Seeing that Mei Xiaoran took the initiative to say it, he wanted to let Pang Zhonghua go to see the house first.
Mei Zhonghua rode out with him.
At noon, Mei Xiaoran was ready for dinner, and Mei Zhonghua ran back with excitement, "Ran Ran, Dad told you that the place in the Uncle Pang who came just now is quite big, and their home is the same as ours. A house facing the street in the yard. I think he really likes the door of our house, so I took it down. When your mother comes back in the evening, I will discuss with her again. If it works, I will take care of it. ."
Mei Xiaoran originally wanted her dad to take care of it, of course he raised his hands in favor!
"Dad, I support you!"
In the afternoon, Mei Zhonghua didn't go to the store, but ran to Pang's house again, and now he even got back the sketch of the house.
When Li Mingyun came back in the evening, Mei Zhonghua couldn't wait to tell her about it.
"Mingyun, I think that the clothing store business will be handed over to you for the time being. I will finish this work first. This Panghai family is also very generous, let us contract labor and materials. If this is done, it will be a lot of money. It."
The business in spring is definitely not as good as that at the end of last year. Moreover, two more clothing stores were opened on the street this spring. Although Mei’s business is still good, on average, it sells for a maximum of RMB 80, and the profit is only 10%. It’s tens of dollars. When it’s good, you can sell it for two to three hundred dollars. When it’s bad, you can sell one and a half pieces a day... Mei Zhonghua is a person who wants to make a lot of money. Now the business is like this. He just couldn't sit still. Now that such a good thing comes to the door, he will definitely do it.
"It's alright, but have you ever thought about whom to do this job?"
Li Mingyun considered Bimei Zhonghua
Be careful, "It’s the busy spring season. It’s definitely not like when we were repairing the house in February, you found so many people in one breath... Also, those people are your family members. Who do you call? Come on? Maybe they will be angry with you in the future!"
When Mei Xiaoran heard her mother say this, she nodded repeatedly, "My mother is right, this issue should be considered in advance."
"It's hard to tell other people, my own brothers shouldn't be like this." Mei Zhonghua disagrees. The brothers asked him to pull the handle last time. Now with such a good opportunity, he can't ignore it!
"Dad, why don't you go home to discuss with my father, and see what my father said, my father is a man of vision."
Mei Zhonghua listened to what Mei Xiaoran said, "Well, I will go back to discuss with your father tomorrow."
The next morning, Mei Zhonghua rode home after breakfast.
Going home and discussing with the old father, the old father and Li Mingyun actually thought of going together.
"Mingyun is right. You have to think carefully, first consider who you want to go, and don't make everyone feel uncomfortable at that time."
"Father, what do you think I arranged?"
"This is the first time you build a house for someone else, so you must do your work beautifully, so that you can break the monument." Elder Mei thought for a while, "Call your sixth uncle by the wall, he is our village. The mason with the best craftsmanship."
The sixth uncle that Mr. Mei said was actually only one year older than Mei Zhonghua. He lives next door to their house. He is a famous mason from ten miles and eight townships, and he works very neatly.
Mei Zhonghua nodded, "That's fine, call my sixth uncle, but these tasks can't be done by one person, right?"
"You count yourself as one, and find two more big jobs, and pick a few from your nephews for the rest. In this way, not only will there be people for both big and small jobs, but also people who work."
"Father, then I will do what you said."
Mei Zhonghua didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so he ran to tell his Sixth Uncle. When Sixth Uncle heard that he was going to the county town to build a house for someone else, he did not hesitate and agreed.
"Uncle Six, you have to find two more big workers for me. The small ones are ready-made, and the big ones have to be particularly good at craftsmanship."
"This is okay, don't worry, these two great jobs are on my body."
