Chapter 849: I

~7 min read 1,380 words

Song Tantan gave her instructions very fluently. Qiaoqiao blinked blankly, then counted on his fingers, and suddenly sighed like a little adult:

"I'm so busy!"

"I have to cook pig feed, feed the dogs, study, learn to cook, and teach the children..."

Song Tantan, who had no work to do and even had time to wander around, turned her head and smiled gently: "Qiaoqiao, in a while, when the strawberries in the canopy are ripe, I'll sneak you in to eat a few first!"

"I'll eat the first one!"

Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up, and he instantly stretched out his little finger: "Pinky promise!"

As for the fact that the canopy at home wasn't locked and only had a few dogs taking turns watching it, and anyone at home could go in...

That wasn't important.

……

Although the temperature at the end of November was low, the sun at noon was very good, and the temperature inside the canopy was a bit high. Song Tantan lifted the film on the roof of the canopy, allowing the sunlight to spill in abundantly.

"As for going home... don't be in a hurry yet. The road at our entrance is waiting for the concrete to set, and there's still asphalt to be laid. During this time, there might be many small tasks that need people to do... I'll let Secretary Xiao Zhu ask around."

Even the squat toilets and showers in every room were installed.

Qiaoqiao waved his little hand: "Old Xu! What do you want to eat tonight? I'll have the mountain canteen arrange it!"

The canopy, it's really quite good!

The thirty square meters had no shared area and no kitchen, so besides the balcony, it could still be partitioned into two bedrooms and a living room.

To be precise, it was handed over!

The only trouble was that the temperature had to be controlled. During the day, there had to be sunlight and the temperature had to be suitable, not exceeding 28 degrees.

But no matter how the workers grumbled in private, as long as the money was in place, let alone building dormitories, they would even build a palace!

She muttered, but looking at the lush and thriving growth under the canopy, she couldn't help but feel satisfied.

The cleaning after renovation was done by the workers yesterday, but they were meticulous in other things, so it was inevitable that they were a bit rough when doing this work.

She also asked Wu Lan: "Mom, who do you think is willing to come and do a more meticulous cleaning?"

The soybeans were also swaying and very sturdy. When they were picked and mixed with cold sauce, and paired with a little wine...

Heavens, this is a god-tier client!

Following this growth trend, in a while, they would have to prepare to thin the flowers.

After all, strawberries have high requirements for sunlight. Not only strawberries, but other crops also benefit from more sunlight.

Old Xu was quite shy: "The workers want to go back after taking the money. If you really think it's not good, just invite me to eat at your house alone."

She didn't say anything, and Old Xu was a bit anxious: "And the workers are leaving, I can't leave! Isn't the old man's house not finished yet?"

There was still a team of people over there!

Wu Lan nodded: "Don't be in a hurry. Aren't you still installing air conditioners and water heaters? Wait until they are installed before cleaning."

Qiaoqiao also knew his hard work, and at this moment gave the sentence everyone loved to hear most: "How much? I'll settle the final payment for you right now!"

Three full one-story buildings, all with small, sparrow-like but complete layouts.

At this moment, the whole Song family followed Old Xu over, looking at the brand-new rooms, full of praise.

Now that it was calculated, it was half a month earlier than the originally scheduled handover time!

Time management was done quite well.

It wasn't expensive; Zhao Fangyuan purchased them uniformly, 120 per set for squat toilets, and they seemed no different from the ones costing several hundred.

In this way, strolling around the canopy every day was a job that everyone in the Song family had to do.

At night, the temperature had to be kept constant between 10-16 degrees.

Even the person in charge, Old Xu, didn't expect that someone in a mountain village would have such courage and do such a good job of taking precautions.

Qiaoqiao couldn't help but feel annoyed: There should have been more space left in this canopy to plant two rows of peanuts!

Old Xu was overjoyed: "Oh, oh, if everyone were like you, it would be great."

Old Xu was also proud—not to mention anything else, the Song family's villa, factory, staff dormitory, and the few buildings over there, including the fermentation tank by the playground, were all done by them!

Oh! Beautiful!

And now—

Zhao Fangyuan's design drawings were precise, and the requirements for the handover were all written in the contract. Old Xu did things based on reputation, and now he was executing them meticulously.

Qiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh: "Fine, fine, fine, invited! You come to the house tonight, and the others will be at the mountain canteen!"

But then again, looking at this lush green every day, who wouldn't be happy?

Old Xu was also satisfied—not to mention anything else, he earned it with satisfaction, and at this moment he said proudly: "How about it? My Old Xu's craftsmanship, it's not bad!"

Look at those snow-white walls, smooth tiles, well-sealed windows, and the bright sunlight shining into every room...

Qiaoqiao:...

"This place isn't big, why does it look so bright?"

That nearly a year of work, stable, good food, wages never delayed...

And at this moment of everyone's attention, the dormitory on the mountain was finally completed!

It was just that the later stage of tiling, waterproofing, and plumbing was quite expensive and time-consuming, plus the workers worked overtime... basically, they had to work overtime for four or five hours every day, working until past ten o'clock to rest.

It would be a pity to waste it, and it wasn't easy to find work. There were many opportunities for road construction here, so it was just right to ask along the way.

Money was spent like flowing water, so it didn't matter anymore.

Plus, there weren't that many handy tools. Now that the rooms looked bright, it was because there was no furniture. It wouldn't work to really live in them.

But building a hotel sounded even sillier. Who would stay in a hotel here?

It was almost December. Returning at this time, there was still more than a month before the New Year, which was a rather awkward time for the workers.

Perhaps because the canopy was more enclosed, the effect of using spiritual energy here was much better than on the mountain. Now that half a month had passed, the cucumber seedlings bought had already started to climb. Thinking of roasting fire on a snowy day, holding a crisp cucumber in hand and crunching on it...

When building the canopy, Qiaoqiao only installed electronic temperature control reminders. The operation still had to be done by himself. At most, if the temperature was high, it would automatically vent...

Normally, these renovations would take ten days or half a month. He was afraid that it would be too cold to work, so he raced against time. When time was needed here, he would go do the next set there...

Qiaoqiao thought that this must be a great loss to Boss Chang! The dozen jars of pickled sweet potato stems sent over a while ago, it wasn't a loss!

Even Wu Lan, who was used to living in big houses, couldn't help but click her tongue when walking into that 30-square-meter room:

It wasn't just a little bit!

It wasn't just a little!

The strawberries that had been planted for a period of time were also growing very well. The leaves under the mulch were thick and oily, the stems were strong, and if you looked closely, you could even vaguely see the prototype of flower buds.

"It's so troublesome!" ===== CHAPTER 850 =====
