Era: Starting from cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi

Chapter 237 There are not enough coffins

"What a people-oriented person, I'm stunned."

After a long time, Xu Qiu exhaled a breath and looked at Sun Xiangyang with complicated eyes.

He should have been the one to tell the juniors like Sun Xiangyang these simple truths, but he didn't expect that he would be awakened instead.

This is certainly related to the fact that the Feng Shui pattern of Shuangshui Bay is so good and he wants to leave a strong mark as a Feng Shui master, but it is also related to the habits he developed in Xiangjiang.

After all, Xu Qiu, as a Feng Shui master, mainly serves wealthy families. For such people, he naturally has to strive for excellence.

This also made him ignore the situation in Shuangshui Bay.

The mainland is different from Xiangjiang, and the people living here are naturally different.

As Sun Xiangyang just said, if virtue is not matched, there will be disaster.

"Xiang Yang, thank you for waking me up this time, otherwise I would have made a mistake."

He also had the notebook Sun Xiangyang mentioned, and even read it more than once, but he also didn't expect this.

But unfortunately, his ideas were not suitable for Shuangshuiwan.

The Feng Shui instruments that others envied were no longer rare to him when he was a teenager.

Jian Cunxiu on the side also said with some shame.

They would do whatever the two said, and they would not even think about it for fear of doing something wrong.

Xu Qiu finally said.

Sun Xiangyang also knows that in Shuangshuiwan today, there are only two carpenters per dozen. Even counting the apprentices, it is good to be able to make three to five coffins a day.

"No, if you don't tell me, I won't understand it even in the end, and I will even be complacent. I am a fan of the authorities, but you are a bystander."

It can be said that Shah Hongcheng has been so anxious these days that his mouth has blistered.

He has been following the master-level exchange meetings that others have crowded around since he was a child, and has listened to them countless times.

"The carpenters in the village will definitely not be able to make it in time. They can go to other production teams or go to the county to buy it."

It's one thing to understand some truths, but it's another thing to be unwilling.

Sha Hongcheng said distressedly.

If Xiangjiang can have such a good place for him to show off his talents, he can definitely do better.

After such a calculation, the required quantity is definitely not a small number, and it is simply too late.

It can be said that different people will have different perceptions after reading that notebook.

On the contrary, it was Sha Hongcheng who found Sun Xiangyang with a face full of embarrassment.

After all, Sun Xiangyang can use the real dragon's cave to create a Feng Shui pattern with the character '亽', and then he can build on this foundation to reach a higher level.

Even if you have this thought, you will feel that you are wrong.

"Uncle Xu, you are just a blinder. Even if I don't tell you, you will definitely figure it out in the end."

They have dealt with many ordinary people, but being able to follow two Feng Shui masters to lay out the Feng Shui pattern is something they only dream of. In their eyes, Xu Qiu and Jian Cunxiu are symbols of authority.

When Xu Qiu proposed expanding the scale, he fully supported it and never thought about the situation in Shuangshui Bay.

And in Shapingba, after years of accumulation, which family doesn’t have a few ancestors and relatives? Do you need several coffins?

Xu Qiu said finally, but he still felt a little regretful in his heart.

Although the idea was shattered, Xu Qiu still worked hard to build the original plan.

I am just an ordinary Feng Shui master, how can I compare with a Feng Shui master?

The most important thing is that Shapingba wants it too urgently.

Normally, the coffin shop does not have too many coffins, and it is not just people in Shapingba who need coffins, other places also need them.

"I, I didn't think about that either."

Xu Qiu shook his head and said.

The other Feng Shui masters looked at me and I looked at you, but no one said anything.

So Sun Xiangyang just woke up not only Xu Qiu, but also him.

"Xiangyang, there are not enough coffins."

Compared to Xu Qiu, he had better conditions when he entered the Feng Shui circle. He directly worshiped a master as his master, so he naturally lacked everything.

There is no need for his thoughts here.

Sun Xiangyang said.

Because of this, he developed the habit of being aloof.

In his heart, there may be some thoughts of competing with Sun Xiangyang.

"Then we will continue to follow the original plan and no more additions will be made."

"We've looked for other production teams, and we've also gone to the county, and we've brought in all the people who were under pressure, but we're still far from it."

Even after he debuted, he never arranged Feng Shui for ordinary people. All the people he dealt with were rich and famous.

Previously, he asked those Feng Shui masters in Xiangjiang to help him choose a good day, and then he told them with a bald tongue.

Now, everyone wants that good day. After all, this is the auspicious day calculated by the Feng Shui master in Xiangjiang. If this day is delayed, if Feng Shui fails, all the benefits will be taken away by others. what to do?
Therefore, no one gave in, and some people even started fighting over a coffin.

The final conflict and problem can only be piled up here with Sha Hongcheng.

"Not much different?"

Sun Xiangyang didn't say anything about spreading out. Even if he picked a few more auspicious days, it was already too late and no one would give in.

"After all, there's still about two hundred mouths left."

Sha Hongcheng said.

"So much difference?"

"Hey, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have made any auspicious dates. Whoever has the coffin will move the grave first. How about you hold a meeting and talk to the big guys?"

"It's too late. Let alone ordinary members, even the cadres at Shapingba will carry forward their style and move the graves later?"

Sun Xiangyang asked.

Suddenly, Sha Hongcheng stopped talking.

In fact, those cadres were the most anxious. Even his family had ordered a coffin early.

He could grit his teeth and postpone it for a while, but others might not.

In this case, it doesn't mean that he has prestige or that he is a party secretary.

Especially with the publicity, those people take the Feng Shui of Shuangshui Bay more seriously than anyone else.

"If that doesn't work, we can only go to other counties to pull the coffin, and we'll need a tractor."

Only then did Sha Hongcheng reveal his method.

Since one county is not enough, go to several more counties.

It's just that the coffin is too heavy and cannot be carried back by one or two people. The number of donkey carts is also very limited. Nowadays, they are all used to help pull bricks. As for finding tractors from those counties, it is not that easy to find.

The tractor is still owned by the public. Which unit is willing to let him pull the coffin?
Isn't this bad luck? So after much deliberation, Sha Hongcheng could only put his mind to those tractors in Shuangshuiwan.

"There was an accident at the coking plant before, which caused a lot of coal to accumulate in the coal yard. The coking plant is also in urgent need of coal. Now they are working overtime to deliver it to the coking plant, and they can't spare any time."

Sun Xiangyang shook his head.

"How about buying another one?"

Sha Hongcheng finally gritted his teeth and said.

"Even if it's too late to buy another one, how many coffins can the tractor pull at a time? It's a long way to go to other counties. We can't make several trips a day, and we still can't catch up."

Sun Xiangyang said.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Sha Hong's success depends on Sun Xiangyang's posture.

"It's better to use a donkey cart. We can discuss with the people at the coffin shop. Let's add some money and let them find a way to find a donkey cart to deliver it. Then we can borrow a donkey cart from a nearby production team. One production team only has three or four donkey carts." , plus the commune, it shouldn’t be a problem to gather thirty donkey carts. Although donkey carts are slower, they can pull one trip a day. If a donkey cart pulls three people, it will be ninety people a day, three or four. That's about it.

The question is, can Shapingba spend so much money to buy so many coffins at one time? "

Sun Xiangyang thought for a moment and finally came up with an idea.

"Isn't there still money in the account? Use it first and pay it back at the end of the year."

Sha Hongcheng chuckled.

He specifically went to find Sun Qingyu. Although the coal mine used a lot of money to erect telephone poles, buy wires, and build research institutes and schools, cement, wood, and tiles were also used, but most of the money was spent. It was due to debts, and the original one hundred and eighty thousand yuan was just a drop in the bucket.

Nowadays, Shuangshuiwan has coal mines and paper-cut paintings, and its reputation is quite good. If you give a deposit and write a note, the other party will be willing to deliver it. The rest will be settled after the settlement at the end of the year.

Anyway, Shuangshui Bay is here, and no one is afraid of it running away.

Even in order to support the construction of Shuangshuiwan, Su Huiwan made many greetings, and some units were willing to sell Deputy County Su's face.

Otherwise, Shuangshui Bay would have been exposed to the northwest wind long ago and would simply not be able to support the current construction speed.

"That's the money just paid by the coking plant. According to the old party secretary's wishes, it will be reserved for future development."

Sun Xiangyang looked at Sha Hongcheng speechlessly.

The former section chief of the coking plant, Chen Gui, came to apologize. Not only did he raise the price, but he also paid for all the coal that had been sent before. However, although the money arrived, it was basically used.

"Xiang Yang, do you think I don't know that those Xiangjiang Feng Shui masters donated money to our Shuangshui Bay? Next, even if we plant trees in Shuangshui Bay, someone will pay for it, and the school will be built soon, so there is no need to plant crops in the ground. No matter how much money you get, it’s still early before the end of the year, so I’m not in a hurry to pay off those debts, so I might as well lend them to Shapingba.”

Sha Hongcheng said directly.

After the old party secretary became a beggar, he often showed off to him. I'm afraid even the old party secretary didn't expect that Sha Hongcheng would be waiting for him here.

"Then you go directly to the old branch secretary."

Sun Xiangyang said.

"Okay, uncle, we are a family. Why are you so embarrassed not to help my nephew when he is in trouble? As for Sun Quade, he has a penny in his hand, how can he be so generous? But as long as you ask, Accountant Sun They will agree."

Sha Hongcheng simply brought out the relationship between the two.

Sun Xiangyang is Mr. Sha's apprentice. He is Mr. Sha's grandson. Isn't his relationship just that of master-uncle?
"Okay, I'll say hello to Accountant Sun later."

Sun Xiangyang thought for a while and said.

Even if all the settlement money at the coal mine is used up, Shuangshuiwan is actually not short of money.

Because Huang Jinling will take away all the paper-cut paintings accumulated in Shuangshuiwan this time. The paper-cut paintings accumulated in the past few months alone are not a small sum.

Although the foreign exchange will be converted into RMB before it falls on Shuangshuiwan's account, it doesn't matter. Even if it is given to Shuangshuiwan, there will be no place to spend it.

Other money may be delayed, postponed, or misappropriated.

But no one will touch the money exchanged for foreign exchange, because Sun Xiangyang has already told Su Huiwan that if anyone withholds or misappropriates the money, Shuangshui Bay will no longer conduct foreign exchange settlements with the company in Xiangjiang. , but the other party directly converts it into RMB to pay the bill.

In this case, it is no longer exporting to earn foreign exchange.

Not to mention the county, not even the region would agree.

Today's foreign exchange is so important. Every place is proud of earning foreign exchange and writes about it. This is a shining political achievement.

Anyone who dares to delay earning foreign exchange is an enemy and will cause public outrage.

Therefore, no one dared to withhold and misappropriate the money exchanged by Shuangshuiwan for foreign exchange. Almost as soon as the foreign exchange arrived, it would be converted into RMB and landed on Shuangshuiwan's account on the same day, for fear of being robbed.

Therefore, as long as Huang Jinling returns to Xiangjiang, Shuangshuiwan will immediately have a huge sum of money.

It has been more than three months since the Chinese New Year. Shuangshuiwan can now produce an average of one hundred ordinary paper-cut paintings a day. Even if you don’t count those master-level works, the price of a painting is three US dollars, which is three hundred US dollars. .

After one hundred days, that’s $30,000.

In addition to those master-level works, it can reach almost 40,000 to 50,000 US dollars, which is 70,000 to 80,000 US dollars when converted into RMB.

In three months, the net income was almost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.

It would be a sensation if placed in any production brigade.

This amount of money will be enough for Shuangshuiwan to last for a long time.

After all, as Sha Hongcheng said, the bulk of the money spent has basically passed, and the rest is just a small matter.

If that doesn't work, you can still go to the coking plant to settle the bill.

After the previous 'misunderstanding', the relationship between Shuangshuiwan and the coking plant has obviously improved. In the words of some people, this is called no acquaintance without fighting.

"Xiang Yang, I won't say much more about my gratitude. You are a great benefactor to Shapingba."

Sha Hongcheng also restrained his previous imprudence and spoke seriously.

"We are all a family. If you say this, you are going too far. Besides, the money is lent to everyone, and it will definitely be deducted when the dividends are distributed at the end of the year."

Sun Xiangyang doesn't care much. This matter can contribute a lot of experience points to him and will not delay the development of Shuangshuiwan. There is no reason to disagree.

I am afraid that even the old party secretary will at most make it difficult for Sha Hongcheng, but he will still agree in the end.

The old party secretary will not be vague on this kind of matter.

"No problem. If it doesn't work out, I can calculate the interest."

Sha Hongcheng said without hesitation.

"No, the coal mine already has Shapingba's share. Normally, the settlement should be made after the money arrives. But now Shapingba has been merged into Shuangshuiwan. Although there are still two production brigades, some accounts can only wait until the end of the year. Settlement together.”

Sun Xiangyang said.

Today, Sun Qingyu can be said to be the accountant of Shuangshuiwan, or the accountant of the two production teams, while the original accountant of Shapingba can only help him now.

All the money was in Shuangshuiwan's previous account and was completely under the control of Sun Qingyu.

Regarding this point, even Sha Hongcheng has no opinion at all.

Money matters can be big or small. If people from Shapingba try to grab the money bag just after they move here, it will only arouse conflicts between the two parties.

"Yes, this time it should be regarded as an advance payment from Shapingba."

Sha Hongcheng nodded and said.

Later, Sun Xiangyang and Sha Hongcheng came to the brigade office and spoke to Sun Qingyu. The latter readily agreed without even asking the old party secretary.

At this point, Sha Hongcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
