"Then why don't you go borrow a greenhouse, there should be a lot of them in our capital city."
Wang Lidong said with a helpless smile:
"You think I don't want to."
Wang Lidong's initial plan was the same as Chen Xiaohu's.
Rent a greenhouse near Beijing to grow mushrooms.
But after searching around, I discovered that greenhouses were scarce at this time.
When the owner of the greenhouse heard that it was a private person who wanted to rent it, he immediately kicked Wang Lidong away.
This can't be done.
So I came up with this simple method.
Anyway, it’s just to verify whether your skills are working.
It doesn't matter if it's small or simple, as long as it meets the conditions.
Chen Xiaohu said:
"In the winter, what temperature do you want to keep in the room?"
Wang Lidong thought for a while,
"It's best to be in the range of 15 to 20 degrees."
Chen Xiaohu thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"Around the Spring Festival, it's a bit difficult to maintain this temperature in this room,"
Wang Lidong said:
"We'll see when the time comes. If it doesn't work, just add two more stoves and light the kang. It should be no problem."
"Then it will definitely be no problem. Then you will be naked. But then the gas smell will be strong in the room."
Wang Lidong said indifferently:
"There's no one here. Why don't you get some air before you come in?"
"Tsk~ This cost is not cheap.
And I have to come over often, at least 2 or 3 times a day.”
Wang Lidong nodded and said:
"Yes, but won't your comrade-in-arms be here by then? With him here we can save a lot of worry."
"Brother, how much is the monthly rent for these two rooms?"
"Two rooms, a total of eight yuan per month, I have paid for half a year in advance."
"Are you so sure that I will take a fancy to you?!"
"When I saw the stove in this room, I felt that it was pretty good.
If you really don't like it, just ask the landlord to refund the money, I know this person anyway."
What you said makes sense.
Wang Lidong took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Chen Xiaohu.
"Lidong, what do you mean?"
Chen Xiaohu said with a steady expression.
Wang Lidong felt funny in his heart,
"Senior brother, take it first, it's not given to you for free.
I know you don't have much money on hand, and my sister has never relaxed on you in this regard.
I'll leave this little money with you first, and then I'll buy a lot of things.
Is it possible that every time you buy something, you ask me for money?
I have an idea, would you like to hear it?
All the expenses incurred during this planting process will be paid in advance by me.
However, every expenditure must be recorded.
After this is over, do the general ledger calculation again.
You and I will each bear half of the total expenses, what do you think?"
Chen Xiaohu agreed immediately:
"This is a good idea.
If this thing really comes to fruition, I won’t be disappointed in receiving the reward from above.”
Wang Lidong knew his senior brother's temperament, so he was not polite.
"In Beginning of Winter, if nothing happens, I will go back to work.
By the way, come to my house for dinner tonight. I will get off work early today.
Wu Gang should also be at my house by then.
I just want to introduce you two to each other."
Wang Lidong thought for a while and said:
"Okay, senior brother, you go to work. I'll be there in the evening."
Wang Lidong looked around the house again and found that there were no other problems, so he returned to the courtyard.
As soon as he entered the middle courtyard, Wang Lidong saw Banggeng playing with a small rubber ball with his two younger sisters.
Seeing the prince of the Jia family, who is still a child, Wang Lidong thought of the great plot in the later part of the TV series.
A small thief who started stealing chickens and dogs can still work as a driver in a BW and marry a beautiful wife. He is really a big winner in life.
It really goes with that saying, no matter how hard you try, you can't resist the fact that someone else has a good parent above you.
But Bangge’s life is at stake.
Wang Lidong didn't think about Bangge anymore and went directly back to his home.
At five o'clock, Wang Lidong saw that the rain had not returned yet.
So he left a note and told Yuyu that he had gone to his cousin's house.
The dishes were cooked and put in the cupboard for her to eat when she got home.
When Wang Lidong pushed the cart out of the courtyard gate, he saw Qin Huairu running in a panic from the direction of the steel rolling mill.
Wang Lidong thought to himself that Shazhu must have been caught.
It seems that I didn't get over the wall in vain last night.
After riding for ten minutes, we arrived near the courtyard of my cousin's house.
Wang Lidong found a deserted place and took out a strip of pork belly and a large bag of beef jerky from the system warehouse.
It’s the first time I meet my senior brother’s comrades. I add some meat and vegetables to express my feelings.
When I arrived at the door of my cousin's house, I parked the car and went into the kitchen of my cousin's house first.
"Xiaodong, here you go. What are you holding in your hand?"
Wang Yulan saw her little brother coming and hurriedly said hello.
"Uncle, uncle..."
The three naughty children were also in the kitchen. When they saw Wang Lidong, they immediately called out politely.
"For you, little ones."
Wang Lidong handed the beef jerky to Da Xiong.
"Wow, beef jerky, it's beef jerky,"
"Quietly, each person is allowed to eat only one. Dinner is coming soon.
Give the remaining beef jerky to mom and I’ll give it to you to eat later.”
A similar scene happened again, and the three naughty children did not dare to talk back. At this time, the three of them were chewing beef jerky enthusiastically.
"Sister, I'll burn this pork belly tonight too."
Wang Lidong gave the pork belly in his hand to his cousin,
"Xiaodong, you still have a way. Look at your brother-in-law. I asked him to bring back some meat, but he only brought back a dozen cans of meat. How dare you brag in front of me?"
Wang Lidong smiled and said:
"Senior brother is already very powerful. Canned meat is now a scarce commodity in the entire capital."
Wang Yulan waved her hands away and said:
"Okay, go find your senior brother. His comrades are also here and are waiting for you."
"Okay, then I'll go find my senior brother."
Wang Lidong immediately entered the main room of his cousin's house.
When he entered the room, he saw a gentle middle-aged man sitting next to his senior brother. The two of them were puffing away at the smoke.
"Senior brother."
Chen Xiaohu saw it was Wang Lidong and said:
"Lidong, let me introduce to you, this is my comrade-in-arms, Wu Gang.
Wu Gang, this is my brother-in-law and junior brother Wang Lidong, you can just call him Lidong."
In Wang Lidong's imagination, Wu Gang should be a tall and strong man.
Unexpectedly, at this meeting, Wang Lidong was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
The first impression Wu Gang gave to Wang Lidong was that this man should be a cultural person, very elegant.
"Are you surprised?"
Senior brother Chen Xiaohu smiled and said:
"It's hard to tell people by their appearance. Many people are deceived by his appearance."
"Hello, Angkor.
My senior brother has been misleading me, making me think you should be a strong man."
Chen Xiaohu interjected:
"You may not look like a cultural person, but Wu Gang's skills are absolutely top-notch."
Wu Gang smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said:
"Xiaohu, a good man is not as brave as he once was.
It used to be the past, but it’s really not possible now.”
At this time, Wang Lidong discovered that Wu Gang's clothes were full of patches and his hair was mostly white.
I can roughly guess that Wu Gang's life in his hometown in Tong County may not have been satisfactory.
But then I thought about it, if he really wanted to live a good life, how would he, Wang Lidong, have the chance to find such a person to help him with things.
