Seeing this, several aunts who were chatting in the yard followed silently. They were not as vicious as Jia Zhangshi, they just thought that if Lin Shaowen was sick and Lou Xiaoe had no time to take care of him, wouldn't they have found a job?

Although Lin Shaowen is not a good person, he is not stingy when it comes to making moves.

Lin Shaowen, fully armed, walked out of the door and immediately saw a group of people standing at the door stealthily.

"What?" Lin Shaowen asked.

"Are you sick?" Jia Dongxu blurted out.

"Are you looking for trouble so early in the morning?" Lin Shaowen frowned.

"No...no." Jia Dongxu smiled awkwardly.

"Chief Lin, why don't you go to work?" asked the third aunt.

"The factory assigned a task and we need to go to the countryside..." Lin Shaowen said halfway, his eyes rolled and he said, "Housing is tight right now, and Qin Huairu is sick again. If she can't come back for a year or two...her house will be empty anyway."

"This house was bought by Qin Huairu."

Jia Zhang had an expression as if she had seen through everything.

Last time, someone almost died in the yard because of Lin Shaowen’s house.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, you should read more books." Lin Shaowen said disdainfully, "Have you ever heard that houses can be bought and sold? I give you money, can you sell me your house? Houses belong to the state."

"What you mean is, if Qin Huairu doesn't come back, then the street office will take back the house?" the third aunt asked tentatively.

"I didn't say that." Lin Shaowen hurriedly distanced himself from the matter. "I was just responsible for going to the countryside to check on Qin Huairu's situation. If something happens in the hospital, don't accuse me of causing trouble again."

The others looked at each other, breathing a little faster.

"Chief Lin, please tell the aunt the truth. What exactly is Qin Huairu's condition like?" The second aunt came over and asked.

"Hey..." Lin Shaowen sighed, "Have you ever seen a patient with tuberculosis?"

Chapter 133 Procurement

The most terrifying thing about tuberculosis is not the death, but the aftereffects of half-life. You say he is alive, and he is indeed alive, but he can't lift anything with his shoulders or hands, and it's difficult for him to walk two steps.

He has to take medicine from time to time, which is a huge burden on the family.

So some people who are listless are also called "tuberculous".

"You mean, Qin Huairu can't go back to work in the factory anymore?" Jia Dongxu looked happy.

He thought a lot in an instant. If Qin Huairu couldn't come back, he would immediately report to the factory and let Qin Peiru enter the factory as Qin Huairu's cousin.

As for the house, those country folks don’t even have household registration, so how can they compete with him?

Snapped!

Lin Shaowen slapped Jia Dongxu to the ground in the snow and angrily shouted, "We are all comrades, how can you be so vicious? Just wait, I will go to the Women's Federation to sue you."

"Little... Lin Shaowen, Dongxu didn't mean that." Jia Zhang suddenly became anxious, "It is said that a husband and wife will be grateful to each other for a hundred days after they marry. Dongxu is also concerned about Qin Huairu."

This old woman thinks pretty quickly.

Lin Shaowen laughed inwardly, but said, "Let's take a step back and say that Qin Huairu can't come back. This house was also allocated by the street office. You..."

Before he could finish his words, the second and third aunts ran out immediately.

Seeing this, Jia Zhang didn't even bother to help Jia Dongxu up, and followed with her short legs.

When Lin Shaowen walked to the gate of the courtyard, he found several middle-aged women standing there looking at the truck.

"Chief Lin, I am Li Gang, the driver leading the team this time." The leading man looked to be in his forties, with a sturdy build, especially his arms, which were thicker than Lou Xiaoe's legs.

He was followed by six men, all truck drivers.

Seven trucks parked together are indeed quite spectacular.

"Well, let's go." Lin Shaowen got into his car directly.

"Did he really go to comfort Qin Huairu?" Jia Zhang was surprised and doubtful.

"Is this true?" Auntie Three said anxiously, "The truck is here, so I guess they're here to give Lin Shaowen a ride."

"You can't compete with me for this house." Jia Zhang said viciously, "Now my family has added another person, and it's almost full."

"You want to compete with me? There are six people in my family." The third aunt said coldly.

"Your house has two rooms, which is enough for you to live in." Jia Zhang disagreed.

"Go away, Jia Zhangshi, and don't ask for a house anymore. It would be much better to live in one room, where you can eavesdrop." The third aunt mocked.

"What did you say?" Jia Zhang was immediately furious.

Those were all said by that little bastard Lin Shaowen.

"What? You still want to hit me?" The third aunt was not afraid at all.

"I'll beat you to death..."

Jia Zhang went up and slapped him in the face.

The third aunt was not to be outdone and directly grabbed her hair.

"Wow, Chief Lin, the women in your hospital are really tough." Li Gang said while looking in the rearview mirror.

"Is it done?"

Lin Shaowen also glanced at the rearview mirror and was immediately happy.

The third aunt and Jia Zhang were like two brown bears, fighting in the snow and even rolling around.

Li Gang saw Lin Shaowen's overjoyed look and couldn't help but smile, "Chief Lin, which village shall we go to first?"

“Which village is the richest?”

Lin Shaowen took out a cigarette and handed it to him.

"Of course it's Zhaojiatun." Li Gang said cheerfully, "Among the 32 villages in Changping, Zhaojiatun is the only wealthy one. Their brigade's pig pens are full of fat pigs..."

"Then let's go to Zhaojiatun first." Lin Shaowen leaned back in his seat.

"Okay." Li Gang agreed and drove towards Zhaojiatun.

There was no such thing as speeding in those days, and truck drivers were always brave. In less than two hours, they had already reached the entrance of Zhaojiatun Village, and the price was that Lin Shaowen almost vomited bile.

"Little Doctor?"

Zhao Er shouted in surprise, and then held his hand affectionately, "It's not even the day of the free clinic yet, why are you here? And you brought so many cars?"

"The factory is short of supplies, so they sent me to the countryside to purchase them." Lin Shaowen said with a smile.

"If you need anything, tell me." Zhao Er laughed, "If I can't find it in my village, I'll take you to find it somewhere else. I guarantee you won't return empty-handed."

"Thank you, Secretary."

Lin Shaowen told Zhao Er the purchase list, and the clerk beside Zhao Er immediately wrote it down.

"There are a lot of things in our village..."

"Secretary, this is what I think." Lin Shaowen interrupted him and said, "There is a shortage of supplies everywhere now. I can't just grab them from your village. If it's convenient for you, send a few people to go and purchase some. It would be best if we could get some from each village."

"We can just gather them from a few surrounding villages, why go through so much trouble?" Zhao Er frowned.

"Secretary, that's not what I meant." Lin Shaowen said solemnly, "Money is a good thing, but having enough food and clothing is the right thing to do. If I empty several nearby villages and something happens next year... and we don't have any food left, that would be a real problem."

"Right, right, right. College students are still smart." Zhao Er slapped his head and yelled, "Come here and die."

Several village cadres immediately trotted over.

"You distribute the materials on the list, and then take the car to purchase... If I find out who embezzles the materials, don't blame me for being ruthless." Zhao Er said in a very stern tone.

These days, there is a lot of money to be made from purchasing.

"Our factory won't let you work in vain." Lin Shaowen said loudly, "Everyone who helps with the procurement will be given five yuan as hard work fee, but you have to ask each village office to issue us a receipt, write down the purchase price and total receipts, and then stamp it with the official seal."

"There's also hard work pay?" Zhao Er asked in surprise.

"You are not from our factory, so naturally you will get hard work pay." Lin Shaowen said with a smile.

"The young doctor is still righteous."

The village cadres of Zhaojiatun were all happy.

Five yuan is a lot of money. Even though they are village cadres, they actually get work points just like ordinary farmers. In fact, they don't even get as much as some farmers who do heavy work.

It's just that it's relatively easy.

"Okay, since the young doctor is taking care of us, let's do our job well. If anyone makes a mistake, don't come back." Zhao Er said in a grim tone.

"Yes."

The village cadres stood straight.

After leaving one car in Zhaojiatun, the other six cars drove in different directions.

Lin Shaowen followed Zhao Er to the village office.

"Is Tiedan in the village?" Lin Shaowen asked.

"Yes, do you have anything to do with him?" Zhao Er said with a smile.

"The factory asked me to stop by Qinjia Village to visit a sick comrade." Lin Shaowen patted the package in his hand. "It will be troublesome if I get lost on the road in such heavy snow."

"Are you all deaf? Someone go and call Zhang Tiedan for me." Zhao Er shouted.

Someone ran out immediately.

Lin Shaowen looked at the majestic Zhao Er and couldn't help but laugh.

No wonder Zhaojiatun is so prosperous. Having a capable and decisive village party secretary is a very important factor.

Chapter 134 Visiting Qin Huairu

Zhaojiatun is quite far from Qinjiacun, and it takes several hours to go back and forth.

But it’s not even nine o’clock yet, so Lin Shaowen has plenty of time.

The Zhang brothers drove a donkey cart.

Lin Shaowen was sitting in the car seat with an iron basin in front of him. The charcoal fire in the basin was burning fiercely.

"Tiedan, when are you getting married?"

"Little Doctor, it's still early."

Zhang Tiedan blushed immediately.

"Do you have a partner?" Lin Shaowen asked with a smile.

"Got it. We've met several times. All we need to do is set a date." Zhang Tiexuan sighed.

"Have you encountered any difficulties?" Lin Shaowen asked curiously.

"The girl wants Tiedan to repair the house before she agrees to marry him." Zhang Tieshuan looked at his brother with a complicated look in his eyes. "Last time he went to the free clinic with you, he gave all the money he earned to his brother."

"My brother has a hard life too." Zhang Tiedan said unconvincedly, "They have all started families now. It's not right for them to live with uncle all the time."

"So, how can you live with me?" Zhang Tieshuan said angrily, "You are not a child anymore. The secretary knew that the young doctor gave you money and specially approved a piece of land for you to build a house. But you..."

He and Zhang Tiedan grew up in Zhaojiatun, and he didn't have much affection for his two brothers in Lijia Village. But this younger brother was his lifeblood.

"How much does it cost to repair the house? I'll lend it to you." Lin Shaowen handed them two cigarettes.

"That's impossible." Zhang Tiedan and Zhang Tieshuan shook their heads at the same time.

"You gave us so much money last time, which has helped us a lot. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to repair the house." Zhang Tieshuan said anxiously, "Actually, I just said that. I'm still worried about Tiedan moving out of the family."

"That's not the case." Lin Shaowen shook his head and said, "You brothers are in harmony, but sisters-in-law will eventually have conflicts after spending too much time together... Tell me how much money you want, and I'll lend it to you. You can pay me back when you have more money."

The Zhang brothers said nothing.

"I treat you all as my friends, and friends should share their money with each other." Lin Shaowen patted Zhang Tieshuan on the shoulder.

"Forty yuan will be enough to build a small house." Zhang Tieshuan said with a red face.

"Okay." Lin Shaowen took out five big unity notes and handed them to Zhang Tieshuan, "Tieshuan, Tiedan is soft-hearted. You have to keep an eye on him and find someone to help him repair the house."

"Hey." Zhang Tieshuan took the money and said hurriedly, "When we get to Qinjia Village, I'll write you an IOU, and we two brothers will pay you back slowly."

"Okay." Lin Shaowen nodded with a smile.
