Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 349 confirmed

Xiao Wei said, "Okay, once it's all settled, Uncle, why don't you come to Fengtian directly? You can meet with Uncle Chen first, what do you think, Uncle?"

Uncle Wang said, "Okay, sure," and hung up the phone with a bang.

Xiao Wei tilted his head to the side, his ears ringing from the loud noise of Uncle Wang hanging up. He shook his head and put down the phone.

I wanted to call Xiaohong to tell her about Uncle Wang, but she wasn't home, so I gave up. I thought about going out to talk to my parents, but I was afraid of missing Liu Sui's call. I felt a little restless. I stood up and paced around a few times, then shook my head and smiled. I still have to practice. I can't keep my composure when something happens.

He lit a cigarette, sat down, closed his eyes, and slowly cleared his mind to calm himself down. Xiao Wei knew what was wrong with him; a country boy who had never been to school, now dealing with one major event after another, it was inevitable that he would get very excited.

After waiting for more than forty minutes, the phone finally rang.

It was indeed Liu Sui. She asked, "Is this Xiaowei?"

Xiao Wei said, "It's me, Brother Liu, right? I'm so sorry to have troubled you."

Liu Sui chuckled a few times and said, "What's the trouble? It's not a big deal. I've already put in a good word for you. 120,000. I haven't dealt with this guy much before, and he's not really worth this much face. That's all."

Xiao Wei smiled and said, "Okay, this price is pretty good. Should Chen Hui and I come over? Or should I just transfer the money over directly?"

Liu Sui said, "You'd better come over. Tens of thousands of yuan is no small matter. You should come and get things settled in person. After that, if you don't have time to deal with the certificate or anything else, you don't need to worry about it. I'll take care of it for you."

Xiao Wei said, "Okay, I'll make the arrangements and come over. I'll call you when I get to Andong."

Liu Sui agreed and hung up the phone.

Xiao Wei put down the phone, sat there, and gently tapped the coffee table with his hand. He thought for a moment and realized that there was nothing else he needed to watch over besides the pig farm. He decided to just leave immediately and get this done as soon as possible to secure the money.

I picked up the phone again; it seemed I was really into the phone today. I took out my phone book, flipped through it, found An Lei's pager number, and dialed 126.

After waiting for more than five minutes, the phone rang. Xiao Wei answered, "An Lei?"

An Lei said, "It's me. Who is it? The boss? I think it's Longcheng's number."

Xiao Wei said, "It's me. The pig farm is all set up. When are you and your dad supposed to come and take a look? We can make arrangements now."

An Lei said, "Okay, I'll talk to my dad in a bit, and then I'll call you when we've set a time."

Xiao Wei said, "I'm going to Andong. I don't know how many days it will take. So, write down my dad's pager number and just call him. My dad is in charge of this pig farm. You can discuss it with him."

An Lei said, "Okay, go ahead and tell me, I'll write it down." Xiao Wei gave his dad's pager number and hung up.

After thinking for a moment, he picked up the phone and dialed Uncle Wang's number again.

"Uncle, it's me, Xiaowei. I'm going to Andong. I'll pick you up in the county when I come back. Just prepare the materials and wait for me. I'll go straight home when I arrive."

Uncle Wang agreed and hung up the phone.

Xiao Wei rubbed his hands together, stood up, looked around, and seeing that everything was alright, went out.

When they arrived at the boiler room, Xiaowei's mom, dad, the boiler operator, and two older women from the canteen were chatting at the entrance. Xiaowei came over and said, "Dad, Mom, I still have to go to Andong, and then I'll pick up Uncle Wang and take him to Fengtian."

Xiaowei's mother said, "Running around again? Why didn't you get everything done in one go last time? Aren't you tired of going back and forth? When are you coming back?"

Xiao Wei said, "Two or three days, I'll leave right away. I have business to attend to tomorrow, so I'll be back tomorrow if things go smoothly, or the day after tomorrow if things go slowly."

Xiaowei's mom said, "Okay, it just so happens that your sister Zhang and the others are going to Fengtian to shop around, right? I'll go with them. We'll shop all day the day after tomorrow. Ask your aunt if she's coming. Why are you picking up your uncle?"

Xiao Wei nodded and said, "Chen Hui's dad has taken care of the job. Come over and meet him."

Xiao Wei's mother's eyes widened in surprise as she asked, "Really? Oh, that's wonderful! Do you know where I'll be transferred to?"

Xiao Wei said, "They say it's the Urban Construction Bureau, but I don't know the specifics and it's not really appropriate to ask. Anyway, just come over. I think anywhere is better than the county town."

Xiao Wei's dad said, "That's true, anywhere is better than the county. This is great! Where will you stay? Is there room?"

Xiaowei said, "Why don't you stay at my place for now? It'll be perfect for you and Xiaohong to stay together. Our house will be finished in the second half of the year, so we can just move in."

Xiao Wei's mother paused for a moment, then asked, "You've started building on that land?"

Xiao Wei nodded and said, "Yes, the foundation has been laid, and they said we can move in in October."

Xiaowei's mother asked, "What kind of house is it? Does it have a yard?"

Xiao Wei said, "There is a yard, a pretty big yard. They built two buildings, one four stories and the other two and a half stories, plus a few storage rooms and a garage. I told them to leave more space in the yard to plant some flowers and trees. If you want to farm, you can do it yourselves. It's just that we can't raise chickens or ducks anymore."

Xiaowei's mother asked, "Why? Isn't there a hospital there?"

Xiao Wei's dad glanced at his wife and said, "Why keep that thing? This is the provincial capital, it's so chaotic, it poops everywhere. We're not keeping it. You built two small houses? You might as well have built one bigger one, what's the point of having two?"

Xiao Wei said, "The blueprints provided by Fengtian Construction Company were supposedly from a Hong Kong Island designer. It's a main building and an annex. I thought, since we have enough space, let's just build it. It's big enough. The main building is 14 meters long and 8 meters wide, isn't that enough for you?"

Xiao Wei's dad said, "So big? How big is that piece of land?"

Xiao Wei said, "It's not much smaller than this hospital, about the same size."

Xiaowei's dad looked at Xiaowei's mom and said, "My goodness, such a big piece of land! It'll be finished in October? I'll go take a look then. It's really nice; it'll be enough for both of our families to live in."

Xiao Wei said, "Well, my plan is for our two families to live together, and we can let Xiao Bing live in that annex when he grows up."

Xiao Wei's dad nodded and said, "Good, good, you've thought further ahead than your dad. This is good enough for our family, alright, that's enough."

Xiao Wei said, "I'm leaving now, it'll take seven or eight hours to get here."

Xiao Wei's dad said, "The downstairs area has been completely renovated, and the toilet has been demolished as well. Wasn't that one and a half rooms inside supposed to be for Xiao Xie? You can ask him if he wants to bring his wife and kids over directly, so they don't have to squeeze onto the bus."

Xiao Wei glanced over there and said, "All done? Is it all done inside too?" He then turned to look into the boiler room.

Xiaowei's dad said, "It's all set up now. People can live inside now, and the back is directly connected to the coal shed. This is really convenient. After we use up all the coal in the yard, it will be much cleaner. The bathhouse can also be used now. You've been acting like you don't belong in this yard all day."

Xiao Wei laughed and said, "I've been so busy these past few days that I haven't really paid attention to this. Okay, I'll go ask Brother Xie." He walked to the entrance of the old building and went through the small door to take a look. Sure enough, the house was sealed off. He went inside and took a look. It was quite nice, and they even had a kang (heated brick bed).

I went upstairs and told Xie Xiaolong. Xie Xiaolong was quite happy and said he would call his wife right away.

After making some arrangements at the training center, Xiao Wei went back to his room, got the money, and drove out of the hospital. He hadn't deposited the last two sums of money yet, so he could use them. These days, it's not easy to withdraw tens of thousands of yuan from a bank, and once you leave Longcheng, your passbook becomes just a piece of paper and is useless.
