Chapter 113: Cutting off people and making money

 The people at the table all turned around at the same time.

Wang Cuihua came back from going to the bathroom and heard the familiar voice of a shrew discussing Bai Lu, so she wanted to walk by quickly.

Unexpectedly, I was stopped just halfway.

  Had to stop.

Turning around, Chen Chunli met her with a threatening look. She didn't want to be beaten, so she followed her intimidating expression.

Wang Cuihua’s husband died and she had no relatives in the town. She was beaten and scolded by Chen Chunli, and no one could help her.

The last time she was slapped twice by Chen Chunli, it was because she didn't say nice things and didn't follow Chen Chunli's wishes.

Chen Chunli's husband Wang Hao is also Xiao Cheng's brother. It's useless for Wang Cuihua to go to Xiao Cheng to say bad things about Chen Chunli. Xiao Cheng doesn't care about the conflicts between women.

What's more, Chen Chunli is pregnant, and everyone will give her some permission, fearing that something will happen to her if she gets angry.

Wang Cuihua is afraid of being beaten by Chen Chunli and scolded by Chen Chunli in public, but her good life now is given by Bai Lu, and she doesn't want to lose the golden rice bowl of fried chestnuts with sugar.

I could only take a sneak peek at the escape route, and then said: "I don't know what other people's candied roasted chestnuts are like. My candied roasted chestnuts are all good and taste the same as those sold by Fifth Aunt, so I sell out as many as I take every day." "

 After saying that, he ran away.

This answer is evasive, but it is enough to prove that Bai Lu's business does not only take care of Wen Xiuyun.

Rather than following Chen Chunli’s intention to frame Bai Lu, she ran away instantly. Chen Chunli’s face suddenly turned the color of pig liver.

 The people at the table glanced at Chen Chunli's face, obviously questioning what she just said.

Finally, it was the wife of a worker from the housing construction team who broke the deadlock by talking about new houses.

 No one wants to make an unpleasant scene at a banquet, and others also agreed, praising Wen Xiuyun's new house for being spacious and bright, with good Feng Shui, and a beautiful decoration style.

Chen Chunli curled her lips: "How can it not be beautiful after spending so much money on contract work?"

“I don’t know how many kickbacks I’ve been given. The owner’s family has too much money and doesn’t understand the situation of building a house and buying materials in the town. They give me as much as they say. I was cheated and even helped count the money, and they rushed to fawn over me. People are slaughtered.”

“A group of people worked very hard to help build a house, and the wages they received in the end were not even a fraction of the money they received.”

 The name of the construction worker's wife is Liu Xiaomei. Her family has an elder and a younger one, and her life is not rich.

Hearing Chen Chunli’s words, she frowned: “Isn’t everyone paid six hundred yuan in wages?”

Another worker's wife also said: "Yes, our family Wang Youcai also made 600 yuan. I heard him say that 25 people built a house together, and all the materials were complete. Wen Xiuyun's new house was built in less than a month. After finishing the interior walls, the labor will be divided equally based on square meters.”

“The doors and windows were arranged by people from the door and window shop, and Wen Xiuyun and his wife paid for them separately.”

Others at the table were shocked when they heard such a high wage: "Six hundred yuan in less than a month! Such a high wage? I heard that the sugar factory in the next county was built for only 300 yuan a month, and the brick factory Lower than two hundred and six!"

Liu Xiaomei nodded and said, "You may not get such a high salary even if you go to Nanshi. Our Ah Fu said that when working with Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng will never treat them badly."

"You don't even know what a loss it is!" Chen Chunli sneered sarcastically: "The money for the building project is all in other people's hands. How can you know how much they took? Maybe they divided it into six thousand and you took six hundred. That's called too much. "

"No way." Liu Xiaomei was in disbelief and said in a hesitant tone: "They build houses based on square meters, and everyone knows exactly how much it costs to build one square meter."

Others at the table also nodded, a little unbelievable that Xiao Cheng would take such a huge kickback. But Chen Chunli looked at them like fools: "It's calculated on a square basis, but how much does the owner get per square meter? How much does it cost per square meter for you guys? Can it be the same? How much did it cost to buy the materials? I told you, Can the price be the same as the price quoted from the host?

"It's just that our Wang Hao is stupid and cowardly. He seems to have such a close brotherly relationship. He doesn't dare to ask more questions. People think he's eating meat when they give him some sweets. Baba goes to work hard to be a cow for others. Make a horse…”

“The husband takes such heavy kickbacks, how can the wife get any better? Even if the sugar-roasted chestnuts given to others are good goods, who knows how to divide the money earned after selling them, and who knows how many kickbacks she has taken behind the scenes.”

Chen Chunli has always remembered the grudge of being refused by Bai Lu to join the group of sugar-cooked chestnuts. Her doubtful words were said in a decisive tone, which immediately became the last straw for everyone at the table and the table next door who were listening to the gossip and hesitated to believe it.

The entire peripheral table was silent for an instant, and Liu Xiaomei and another construction worker's wife had ugly expressions on their faces.

If these words come from other people's mouths, they will naturally not believe it. Chen Chunli is Wang Hao's wife, Wang Hao and Xiao Cheng are brothers, can brothers cheat brothers?

The banquet has not started yet, and no one has eaten the snacks such as melon seeds and fruits before meals on the table.

 Every table has different thoughts.

Bailu's sugar-roasted chestnuts sales have already reached a high level, and they are about to discuss the specific time to get the goods. All partners are excited and excited.

Unexpectedly, one of them went to the bathroom and came back, whispering a few words to his colleagues on the left and right, and the situation changed.

Although everyone’s faces didn’t show anything, the topics they talked about changed from deep to shallow. They no longer talked about anything about agent sugar-roasted chestnuts, and returned to the initial chatting about family matters.

Bai Lu didn't force the conversation, guessing that the other party probably met someone on the road and heard some bad gossip.

The logging process in Xiaojiacun encountered some problems. Early this morning, Xiao Guofu came to see Xiao Cheng going to the countryside.

 I guess I’ll have to come back later.

Now they are all sitting at the living room table, and gossip spreads quickly, and it will not take long for them to spread.

Bai Lu expected it to be right, but she was not the only one to hear the news of ruining one's reputation and ruining one's wealth.

Yu Fugui, who was entertaining guests outside the door, also heard it.

Gossips spread in a fashionable manner, and from time to time there were people around looking at Bai Lu's table and pointing.

  What he said were all bad things about Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng, slandering their character, ruining their reputation, and ruining their financial prospects.

Although he did not mention his name, Xiao Cheng and his wife were selling sugar and roasting chestnuts, and were general contractors for house construction.

  They knew who it was as soon as they heard it. The businessmen who originally wanted to talk to Bai Lu stopped thinking and fell silent.

Yu Fugui was anxious and angry.

 Xiao Cheng had already given him the detailed list of materials used for building the house. He had seen it and found no problems. As long as the detailed list was there, any rumors could be broken.

But at that time, he was rushing to the city to open a stall to sell fruit, so he gave the detailed list to Wen Xiuyun to keep.

Wen Xiuyun’s mother’s family had a visitor. They set out from the remote mountains early in the morning. It was their first time in a new town and they didn’t know the way. Wen Xiuyun and her two children went to greet them.

Yu Fugui didn’t know where Wen Xiuyun put the detailed list, and he couldn’t find it for a long time.
