Chapter 1191 Only for a justice
"People in the village always bully you?" Qin Chao asked.
Zhang Ling's face was indifferent: "It's not their fault. My father died early, and I am the only one left in the carpenter's family. I am a woman, and it is normal for people to look down on me."
"Why do you think so? You have been to school, and you have been to the outside world, how can you still have such patriarchal thoughts!"
Qin Chao was a little dissatisfied.
Zhang Ling smiled: "So what? Even if I know all the great truths! I live in Shuixiang Village, so naturally I have to live according to the customs here! Shuixiang Village has always favored boys over girls, and women In Shuixiang Village, it is a tool for giving birth and venting out with men, it has been like this since ancient times, what can I do!"
"Haven't you thought of any way to change everyone's thinking!" Qin Chao said.
Zhang Ling shrugged: "I'm not a saint, I never had such thoughts!"
"If you don't have it, then you don't. I'm an outsider after all, and I don't know what's going on with you. Is there anything I can do?" Qin Chao asked.
"You are responsible for being too stupid with Xiaofan, and I will do the technical work. Xiaofan can also do small things, so you can do hard work!" Zhang Ling said.
Qin Chao curled his lips: "I'm not that useless, maybe I can learn your skills soon!"
"Stop making trouble, brother, it takes time and experience to accumulate, and there is a specialization in art. Maybe I'm not as good as you in picking up girls with a smooth tongue, but you can't do it as a carpenter!"
Hearing what Zhang Ling said, Qin Chao was not stubborn.While resisting the wood, he aimed at Zhang Ling's hand from the corner of his eye, secretly learning skills.
At about eight o'clock, Guan Dingfan finished a simple breakfast and asked everyone to eat first.
Simple and plain food, full of the flavor of the farmhouse.
All the vegetables are grown in the garden, pure natural green plants, Qin Chao eats a lot.
Zhang Ling kept saying in a strange way: "You eat so much, you must do more work later! Otherwise, I will lose money!"
"When you beg me in the future, it's nothing for me to eat now!" Qin Chao laughed.
Although there are no good living conditions in this Shuixiang Village, Qin Chao feels very at ease, his mind is very relaxed, there is no huge pressure, everything is so peaceful.
After dinner, Qin Chao followed Zhang Ling and Guan Dingfan to do the housework, and finally rushed out in the evening.
Sitting on the finished bed, Zhang Ling said with a smile, "I never thought my craftsmanship would be superb again! This bed is so ingenious, I believe the couple will be very happy living on it!"
"You know how to make a bed so well, why don't you make a new one for yourself, your bed is very old and very old, it's not comfortable at all!" Qin Chao said.
Zhang Ling snorted coldly: "What do you know? That bed is my mother's dowry. I want to sleep on it all the time. Only in this way can I feel that I am very close to my mother."
"Okay! Count me wrong! By the way, you must make a lot of money by making this set of luxurious furniture, right? I think you are also responsible for the raw materials. Tell me, how much money have you saved for your dowry?" Qin Chao With a bad smile.
Zhang Ling shrugged helplessly, and said, "Actually, I don't make money. Now that the national policy is becoming more and more stringent, it is not easy to harvest wood. I have worked hard for many days, and I can sell all these furniture for less than 500 yuan." .I don’t cut corners, so after all, I don’t make money!”
"Damn it! It only sells for five hundred? Impossible! If these furniture were in Xinyang, they wouldn't be able to buy without 1 yuan! Are the items here so cheap?"
"It's not that the items are cheap, it's that I am cheaper. Even if I ask for a higher price, no one will give it!" Zhang Ling said.
"When your father was alive, was the price they gave the same?" Qin Chao asked again.
Guan Dingfan said unconvinced: "Of course not. Now that everyone's living standards have improved, they have to pay at least two or three thousand yuan to make a set of furniture. When they come to my master, they play tricks and only give five hundred!"
Qin Chao slapped his thigh: "Then why do you still do it? Don't care about it! Aren't you the only carpenter in the village? Once you let go, look who dares to pretend!"
"That won't work! I'm a carpenter, how can I threaten everyone with this!" Zhang Lingyi said righteously.
"It doesn't make you really give up, it's because of your cowardly and compromising attitude that it makes everyone feel that no matter what you do, bullying you is justified. You should just do nothing and expose them for a while, They dare not do anything!"
Qin Chao said.
"Maybe you're right, but I still can't do it. Even if my father is alive, he would rather suffer a loss than ignore everyone's needs. In my father's words, we are all carpenters, people have The demand for wood is the moment when we should take responsibility. This is the mission, and we cannot forget our roots for other reasons!"
As Zhang Ling spoke, he seemed to think of his father again, with a slight smile on his face.
Qin Chao curled his lips and said: "Being a good person should have a bottom line. When the other party goes too far, your kindness is cowardly. Let's not talk about this, these are going to be sent away, I will help you!"
"You offended Uncle Ge and the others today, and you should keep a low profile when you go to the village later, and you must not cause trouble again. We are already weak, and if we provoke others again, it will be even more difficult." Zhang Ling said.
Qin Chao stretched out his hand to Zhang Ling, and said with a smile, "Come on, pull the hook!"
"Childish!" Zhang Ling glared at Qin Chao again, stepped aside and got up the car.
Qin Chao smiled and followed: "Do you want to consider being my god-sister!"
"Damn sister? Do you think it's necessary? You are considered a worker in our family now, why should I call you brother!" Zhang Ling looked disdainful.
Qin Chao laughed: "It's okay not to call now, but don't beg me when the time comes! Xiaofan, come and load the car!"
Qin Chao shouted.
Guan Dingfan hurried over and carried the furniture with Qin Chao.
Guan Dingfan and Qin Chao sat on the back of the car, holding on to the furniture, while Zhang Ling drove.
The road in Shuixiang Village is fairly smooth, without any major bumps along the way, and soon came to the door of the village chief's house.
The village chief's house is more lively, his son is about to get married, and there are more relatives and friends who come to help.
Seeing Zhang Ling's car parked outside the gate, several young men ran out to carry the furniture.
The village chief was a dark man. Seeing Zhang Ling getting off the car, he waved his hand to stop him and said, "Stay there, don't go in! My son is getting married, and it's unlucky for a woman to come in!"
As the village chief said, he took out 500 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Ling from a long distance away.
Zhang Ling looked indifferent, and was about to take the money, but Qin Chao suddenly stopped him.
With a grass in his mouth, Qin Chao said angrily, "Five hundred? That's too little! How can you say that you are also the village head, and you spent such a little money on such a good set of furniture for your son? "
The village chief was taken aback when he saw Qin Chao, and asked, "Who are you? I haven't seen you in this village before, are you from outside?"
"That's right, I'm Zhang Ling's newly hired long-term employee, and I'm also a part-time accountant. I've done some calculations. If I charge you so little money, it's really not worth it for us!"
Qin Chao nodded his feet, trembling all over.
Zhang Ling pulled Qin Chao's clothes from behind, and whispered, "Don't cause trouble, take the money and leave!"
How could Qin Chao be willing to listen? With him around, such an uneconomical deal would be impossible to close.
The village chief was obviously wronged, so he blushed and said, "This is a matter between me and the carpenter's family. It has nothing to do with you as a migrant worker. Get out of here quickly. I'm still in a hurry to get down to business! "
Qin Chao directly took the 500 yuan from the village chief, patted it with a smile and said, "500 yuan can only buy a chair, and there is still a bed, a large wardrobe, a dressing table, and a dining table left here. , no matter what, we have to take another 8000 yuan, if not, we can’t unload the things.”
"8000 yuan? Are you robbing money? There has never been such a price in our village! When the old carpenter was alive, these things were only 3000 yuan. Are you playing a rascal?" I was in a hurry when I asked for more than 8000 yuan.
Qin Chao sneered and said: "You also know that the word stinky rascal is not good! I said you are shameless as an old man! When the old man was alive, there was no price of 500 yuan. Once his father died, as the village head, Not only did you not help, but you led the people in the village to bully other little girls, you should be ashamed!"
"You...you bastard! I'm too lazy to tell you, you unload the furniture and get out, or I'll tell you to look good!" the village head threatened.
Qin Chao laughed, jumped directly into the car, and said with a smile: "I don't know who will look good next! If you don't give money, will you? If you don't give money, I will smash things. Anyway, this little money is no different from Baigan. Even if I smash it, it won't be cheap, you smelly and shameless people!"
As Qin Chao said, he grabbed the dining table and threw it on the ground.
Qin Chao used so much force that the dining table shattered when it fell to the ground, making a loud noise.
The village head became even more nervous when he saw Qin Chao started smashing things, and shouted loudly: "What are you doing! My son still needs to use it when he gets married, why did you smash it!"
"Now there are even fewer things left, nine thousand! If you don't give me the money, I'll throw it all away and let your son use your old furniture to marry a wife. People from ten miles and eight villages will come to the wedding to see your face Where to put it!"
As Qin Chao spoke, he lifted up the wooden bed.
The village chief panicked when he saw it, and raised his hands and said, "Don't smash it, young man, calm down, you have something to say!"
"There's nothing to say. If I smash these things, no matter how good Zhang Ling's craftsmanship is, it's too late to make new ones. It's up to you!" Qin Chao said.
"What do you want! Don't get excited!" The village chief was sweating profusely.
Qin Chao said with a smile: "All I want is fairness. You all know in your heart how much this set of furniture should cost. I just can't stand your bullying! Give me the money. If you don't give me the money, I won't talk about it!"
"Okay, okay, I'll give it, tell me, how much!" The village chief was almost driven crazy.
"Nine thousand is not negotiable!" Qin Chao said.
"Young man, you are extorting. We have never bought furniture at this price since ancient times!"
"Then you haven't met me. You already paid this price when you met me. If you say more, it will be [-], or I will continue to smash it!"
As Qin Chao said, he leaned forward, which made the village head and others exclaim in shock.
"Okay, nine thousand, I'll take the money now, don't waste it!"
The village chief said...
