Originally, Lei Laoliu and the others planned to spend one day preparing materials and start work the next day.
However, it was unexpected.
All kinds of building materials on the market are in short supply!
Especially on the black market, prices have generally increased by 20%, and most of them are still unavailable.
Although Lei Laoliu had a wide network of contacts in the industry, he was too short on time and it was not easy to deal with it.
I had no choice but to come over to say hello to Du Fei and give him two days.
Du Fei didn't care about these two days with him. ??
Du Fei didn't say anything, but in fact he was very clear in his heart.
The reason why this situation occurs is actually a manifestation of the tense situation.
In this era, there is no free market economy.
The things flowing out on the black market are all unplanned materials produced privately by various units.
And there is never a shortage of smart people in this world.
As the news continues to spread in newspapers and on the radio.
Many people have realized that the trend is wrong and have become more cautious in doing things, and some have simply stopped doing anything.
There is naturally a shortage of things on the market.
But it should be said that Lei Laoliu does have two brushes.
Under this circumstance, it only took two days to prepare all the materials and start work together.
After the work started, the deaf old lady first moved to the house of the uncle in the middle courtyard to deal with her for a few days.
Silly Zhu lived in the house that used to belong to his sister He Yuyu.
Speaking of which, Shazhu's house can be regarded as having the best living conditions in the whole courtyard house.
The two best main rooms in the middle courtyard were owned by their family. In addition, they also occupied a small side room, which was originally occupied by his sister.
Unfortunately, their family has a small population. Even including Si Zhu's parents, there are only four people in total.
After He Yuyu got married years ago, the house of Shazhu's family became more prosperous.
Thursday morning.
Du Fei rides his bike to work normally.
After arriving at the work unit, say hello to Section Chief Qian.
In the name of submitting materials to the district, I left the street office and rode back to the courtyard.
It was only about nine o'clock at this time.
The sound of "clinking" construction work and wall cutting could already be heard in the courtyard.
Du Fei pushed the cart into the hospital.
As soon as I walked to the hanging flower gate of the second courtyard, I met the third aunt standing nearby watching the fun, as well as several old ladies in the courtyard.
When these people saw Du Fei coming back, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.
The third aunt asked, "Hey~ Xiao Du, what happened today? Why did you come back?"
Du Fei smiled and said, "Hey! The materials for the afternoon meeting have been left behind."
If you forget something, it's not unusual to come back and pick it up.
Everyone separated and allowed Du Fei to push the cart in.
As soon as Du Fei arrived in the middle courtyard, he saw two men tearing down the windows and doors of Sha Zhu's house.
Du Fei is very familiar with this routine.
But after scanning around, I didn't see Lei Laoliu at the scene.
Du Fei ignored him and pushed the car directly back to the backyard.
The old deaf lady's family also has the same process.
Wei Duzi was the leader and led two young men.
One of them had worked at Du Fei's house last time, but the other was a stranger.
The eldest mother was holding Xiaoling, and the deaf old lady was watching the fun.
Seeing Du Fei coming back, he asked the third aunt again the same questions he just asked.
Du Fei brushed it off.
After saying hello to Wei Duzi, he parked the car and returned to his home.
After entering the house, I listened carefully to the construction work outside.
Because the front and back yards are being constructed together, the "dong-dong" sound of the sledgehammer and the "creeping" sound of sawing wood are mixed together, making it very noisy.
This is what Du Fei wants! He stood at the door and waited for a moment.
The deaf old lady was getting older. After watching the excitement for a while, she soon couldn't hold it any longer, so she went back to the middle courtyard with the eldest mother and her children.
Du Fei saw the opportunity and came out of the house.
Wei Duzi and two others were busy working, and no one noticed him.
He walked quickly along the corridor in front of his house to the room next door, reached out and pushed the door open, and ducked in.
Since I bought this house in the name of Qin Jingru, the door has been locked and the key is in Du Fei's hand.
Previously, Liu Guangfu lured that country rat to live in secretly.
I just pried open the window of the wing room.
Du Fei started making preparations last night.
The lock had been taken off long ago, and the door was only ajar.
After Du Fei entered, he immediately closed the door behind his back.
I turned around and looked out along the edge of the door to confirm that there was nothing unusual.
After waiting for a moment, he took a breath and locked the door from the inside.
Then he walked towards the northwest corner of the house.
According to the previous comparison, the front and rear widths of the auricles are different.
It can basically be determined that the entrance to the underground secret room is here.
As Du Fei walked, he took out a chisel and a short-handled sledgehammer from his pocket.
Take the thing, roughly estimate it, and use a chisel to push it against the wall.
At the same time, I listened to the noise outside, confirmed that the noise was not quiet, and slammed the hammer down.
Suddenly there was a bang!
Du Fei's power was so great that even though the house was being demolished outside, the sound seemed too loud.
Fortunately, we can work on the front and back at the same time.
Those in the front thought it was the noise from behind, while those in the back thought it was caused by the front.
Du Fei was also shocked.
With this hammer blow, the chisel was wedged directly into the wall, leaving only the section he was holding exposed.
Du Fei's mouth twitched.
After twisting hard twice, he pulled out the chisel and pointed the sledgehammer to the side.
But this time he controlled his strength and tried to make the movement here less abrupt.
Even so, the progress is quite amazing.
First of all, his physical fitness is too strong.
Secondly, this is not a real wall.
When the entrance to the underground secret room was sealed, only a layer of cement was applied to the surface in a hurry, and then white dust was painted on it. It looked solid, but was actually very brittle.
Following Du Fei's hard knocks, the layer of cement peeled off in large chunks like walnut cakes.
Inside this layer of cement are nailed wooden boards and gravel bricks.
Seeing this, Du Fei became even more certain that this was the entrance.
He directly put the removed items into his portable space, then took out the crowbar and pried off the wooden boards inside one by one.
None of this is difficult for Du Fei.
Soon he cleared the entrance to a secret passage less than one meter wide and nearly one and a half meters high from the wall.
But the trouble is, the entrance is filled with bricks and tiles.
Although there is no cement poured between these bricks and tiles, they are stacked on top of each other and are extremely difficult to clean.
And after the entrance was cleared, the inside was straight up and down, and it was quite narrow and cramped.
For a guy as big as Du Fei, he couldn't even straighten his waist when he got into it.
For ordinary people, faced with this situation, it would take several days to open up this four- to five-meter-long entrance.
Fortunately, Du Fei has some space with him.
The bricks and tiles here do not form part of the entire house.
overall.
Du Fei concentrated on reaching down his hand and opening the portable space.
In the next moment, visible to the naked eye, those bricks and tiles quickly disappeared one after another.
Du Fei was secretly happy, the efficiency of clearing the passage instantly increased several times.
But in this way, his energy is also consumed quickly.
I usually open and close the portable space at will and it doesn't seem to matter.
But like now, one after another, it becomes too much when the times are too many.
Du Fei worked on it for more than ten minutes.
Seeing that the excavation speed has greatly accelerated, it has advanced to a depth of more than one meter underground.
But his energy is drained faster.
This forced him to stop temporarily, rest for a while, and catch his breath.
At the same time, I am also thinking about whether I can speed up the process.
In fact, Du Fei's portable space is not incapable of storing multiple things at one time.
For example, when he was building a house, he could buy dozens of gold bricks at once.
But these bricks and tiles are different now.
The size and shape of those 'gold bricks' were similar, which made it easier for Du Fei to form a unified concept in his brain.
The bricks and tiles that can block the entrance to the underground secret room are completely irregular and chaotically stacked.
There is simply no way to describe their concepts in my mind at once.
We can only use the stupidest method and lock them one by one.
have a break.
Du Fei felt better and went down into the cave again.
This time, Du Fei only worked for ten minutes and pushed down less than one meter.
He estimated that it would still be at least three meters away from reaching the underground secret room.
But his energy was a little unbearable.
There is a slight discomfort in the position of the temple, as if the vision has been synchronized for a long time.
When this happened, Du Fei immediately stopped and exited the cave.
Seeing that he was covered in dirt, Du Fei frowned.
Fortunately, he didn't have to clear this place immediately.
Once you reach this step, the next step is not difficult, it is just labor-intensive and time-consuming.
To open up this place, the really difficult thing is to chip away at the first layer of wall.
That movement would have been noticed by people in the courtyard if it wasn't covered by the construction work outside.
Du Fei looked at his watch.
It's already past ten o'clock, and it's almost time to go back to work.
His energy consumption is quite large now, and it will take at least more than an hour to fully recover.
Instead of staying here, it would be better to come back at night.
Du Fei made up his mind to clean up the scene and take off the clothes and hat he wore while working.
He returned to the window, looked at the situation outside, then quickly came out of the house and walked towards his own home.
At this time, the three people from Wei Duzi were working in the deaf old lady's house, and no one noticed them.
Du Fei returned home, tidied up again, and washed his face.
Then go out, push the car and walk outside.
As soon as I arrived in the front yard, I saw a man with his butt sticking out and sneaking around, looking out from the gate.
Du Fei took a closer look and saw that this was none other than Liu Guangfu!
Since the last incident.
Liu Guangfu was beaten severely by his second uncle, and he limped for several days.
I didn't expect that this guy would show up again and act like a monster.
Seeing him sneaking around there, he must be up to no good.
While Du Fei was thinking, he walked over and shouted "Liu Guangfu!"
Liu Guangfu was immediately frightened and trembled.
When I looked back, I saw it was Du Fei. He took a long breath and said angrily, "Fuck, you scared me to death."
Du Fei smiled and said, "You are blocking the door here, how can you get out without me telling you?"
Liu Guangfu said nothing and got out of the way.
Du Fei ignored him.
He moved the car across the threshold and ran towards the unit.
But when passing by the small alley next to the courtyard, I saw a figure from the corner of my eye.
It was the dark and strong young man who had been guarding the entrance of the courtyard several times before.
Du Fei's heart moved.
Thinking of the sneaky Liu Guangfu just now, I thought to myself, "Is this guy here to block Liu Guangfu?"
In the past, this mature-looking young man often appeared around the courtyard for a while, and it was obvious that he came here with bad intentions.
Du Fei didn't know who he was coming for.
But looking at the meaning today, it seems that the case has been solved.
It was Liu Guangfu who caused trouble outside again.
Du Fei was too lazy to mind his own business, so he quickly rode his bicycle back to the street to do some work.
But as soon as he entered the house, he was called to the small office.
Zhu Ting stared at Du Fei with a sullen face and a pair of beautiful pink eyes, and whispered, "Where did you go during working hours? It has only been a few days since you became a full-time employee, and you don't pay attention to the impact!"
Section Chief Qian, who was sitting across from him, was still the same as before, holding the "Arsenal of Fairy Machines" in his hands, but looking furtively this way, as if he was watching a good show.
Du Fei smiled and said, "I told Uncle Qian just before I left."
Zhu Ting was reluctant and glanced at Section Chief Qian, "Old money can spoil you!"
Section Chief Qian coughed quickly, "That means you two are quarreling, but don't get involved with me."
Du Fei said seriously, "Comrade Zhu Ting, I disagree with what you say! Comrade Lao Qian's work attitude and enthusiasm for life are obvious to all the comrades in the unit..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Ting glared and said, "Speak well!"
Du Fei now had some time to relax, "Do you still remember what I told you last time?"
Zhu Ting's mind turned and she immediately understood what Du Fei was referring to.
Du Fei said, "I've found the people and we'll start work today. Did I go back just now?"
Section Chief Qian listened a little confused.
Zhu Ting frowned and said, "Have you really thought about it? This matter is not that simple. Once it is published in the newspaper, you will not be able to control it."
When Section Chief Qian heard about the newspaper, his expression became serious and asked, "Xiao Zhu, Xiao Du, what's going on?"
Du Fei didn't hide anything, and briefly talked about "repairing a house for a deaf old lady, and then asking Zhu Ting to write an article for the Youth Daily".
Section Chief Qian pondered for a moment and said, "This thing... I think it can be done! It just so happens that our street also needs to set up a young model."
Then he looked at Du Fei and said earnestly, "But this matter~ you can't act privately. It's best to say hello to Director Wang in advance."
Du Fei said, "I understand this. I originally planned to wait until the house is finished to be repaired before telling you and Aunt Wang. Otherwise, it will be all empty talk, and it will be hard for me to speak. Just do it if you can do it by then. Don't you think it's okay?"
OK, forget it."
Section Chief Qian said in surprise, "What if Director Wang disagrees, will your money to repair the house be wasted?"
Du Fei smiled and said, "It's not a waste, at least it allows the old lady to live in it."
Section Chief Qian smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you still have such ideological consciousness!"
Section Chief Qian and Zhu Ting both knew about the deaf old lady's condition, and someone from above had also asked the street and neighborhood committee to take good care of her.
Zhu Ting was also a little surprised that Du Fei could say such a thing.
Although she likes Du Fei, she doesn't think this brat is a good person.
As the old saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together.
If he has the same chemistry as Zhou Peng and Li Mingfei, what kind of good guy can Du Fei be?
