Chapter 53: If you don’t have land, you can start a sideline business to make money
Team leader Jiang Guoping also came to persuade Aunt Jiang to stop making trouble.

Because of the separation, some neighbors also took the opportunity to watch the fun.

Aunt Gui, in particular, walked straight into the room and looked around.

Seeing that she had lost the battle and was laughed at by her neighbors, Aunt Jiang turned around and went into her bedroom in anger.

The door was slammed shut.

Since Aunt Jiang was not around, the move went smoothly.

Jiang Daguo didn't want to have endless arguments with his mother, so he only moved Jiang Xiaoxiao's crib out of the way.

The other items were all clothes for their family of three, as well as mosquito nets, quilts, thermos, washbasins and bathtubs, as well as Jiang Xiaoxiao's small toilet.

Of course, Jiang Daguo also took out all the money that Liu Xihua had hidden in the cracks between the bricks behind the cabinet.

Seeing him hiding the money like this, Liu Changping knew that even if he locked it in the drawer, it would not be locked, and his face looked very ugly.

Fortunately, we separated, otherwise my sister would be very upset.

All sorts of items were moved onto Liu Changping's tractor.

Liu Changping started the tractor and brought team leader Jiang Guoping and Jiang Daguo Liu Changfa to the team house of Group 5 where Jiang Daguo lived.

Jiang Guoping unlocked the door and turned on the light.

Everyone looked around the room.

The team house has two rooms, each of which is the size of an ordinary classroom.

The inner room was filled with threshers and dust machines, and the outer room was filled with firewood that someone had chopped.

"Oh, it's such a mess here. How can people live here?" Liu Changping frowned as he looked at the team house full of dust and clutter.

Jiang Daguo walked around the two rooms and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "I'll come and clean it up tomorrow and use sorghum stalks to separate the two small rooms."

It was getting late, Liu Changping sighed and said, "Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."

The two Liu brothers and Jiang Daguo moved the items off the tractor and piled them in the corner of the house.

Jiang Guoping handed the key to Jiang Daguo and patted him on the shoulder. "You live here, and the key is yours to keep. You also have to take good care of the things in here. They are all for public use by the team, so don't lose them."

Jiang Daguo held the key and said, "Don't worry, Captain, I will keep it safe."

"Okay, let's go home." Liu Changping waved his hand and walked out.

Everyone left the team house, Jiang Daguo locked the door, and rode Liu Changping's tractor back to Liu's house.

Liu Xihua hurriedly asked Jiang Daguo whether the division of the family was going smoothly.

"Well, the things have been moved to the team house. I'll go clean it up tomorrow morning, and our family can move in in the afternoon." Jiang Daguo said.

Liu Xihua was very happy, "That's great, we have a new place to live."

Jiang Xiaoxiao listened to their conversation and was happy for them.

But Father Liu frowned, shook his head and said, "Daguo, how long do you plan to live in the team house?"

Liu Xihua became nervous, looked at Jiang Daguo, and said to her father, "Dad, Daguo will find a way to move out earlier. In fact, we planned to build a house last year."

Father Liu said sullenly, "The sooner the better. You live in the team house, and the whole team is watching you! Aren't you afraid they will laugh at you?"

Team house, a public house.

The only people who had lived there before were some beggars from other places. They felt sorry for them and let them stay for a few days.

Now that Jiang Daguo and Liu Xihua have moved in to live there permanently, it will indeed attract gossip.

The next morning, Jiang Daguo rode his bike to the team house with a broom, shovel, and a hatchet to clean.

Everyone in the team had heard about Jiang Daguo living in the team house. When they saw Jiang Daguo busy sweeping the floor, they couldn't help but come up to him and make sarcastic remarks.

"Daguo, your house is quite spacious, why do you live in the team house? What? Did your parents kick you out because you didn't give birth to a son? Hey, you are so stubborn, isn't it the same if you can't give birth to a son? Why are you so stubborn?" "Daguo, your parents only like your three sisters, but you are a son, how come you are not as good as your sisters?"

"What do you know? He is a big and generous man. He saw that his sister had no place to live after getting divorced, so he gave it to her on purpose."

Jiang Daguo is a simple and honest person, and he is always too lazy to argue with others.

Faced with the people in the team laughing at him, he was too lazy to pay attention. He just glanced at them and continued to work.

An older member of the same tribe couldn't stand it anymore and scolded the young men who were mocking Jiang Daguo and sent them away.

The man walked up to Jiang Daguo and sighed, "Daguo, I heard that you don't even want the land. How are you going to live in the future?"

Jiang Daguo leaned on a broom and said, "When the time comes, things will work out. Now that small businesses are allowed, I'll do some small business."

"How much money can you make?" The old man shook his head. "You should go find the captain and ask who has extra fields to share with you."

Jiang Daguo knew that the old man from the same clan meant well in giving the reminder, but who would give in?
Everyone wants to plant more crops and earn more income.

He smiled slightly, "Got it, Wugui Dad."

The old man shook his head, sighed and walked away.
-
After cleaning the house, Jiang Daguo went to a family in the team that grew sorghum and bought a few bundles of sorghum.

These dried sorghum stalks are not worth much.

Jiang Daguo spent fifty cents and bought thirty bundles.

He used hemp ropes to weave the sorghum stalks into rows and inserted them into the small trenches that had been dug in advance on the ground of the team house.

Fill it with soil and it becomes a wall of sorghum stalks.

He used sorghum stalks to divide the spacious inner room of the team house into three rooms.

One living room is his daughter Jiang Xiaoxiao's room, and the other is his and Liu Xihua's bedroom.

The next room is the kitchen.

The kitchen is close to the window, which makes it easy to exhaust smoke.

After dividing the kitchen, he found some bricks and built a simple stove.

As for the bed, it was also made of bricks, covered with discarded wooden boards from the team house, and then covered with cotton quilts, and that became a bed.

After packing up, Jiang Daguo returned to the Liu family.

"I have cleaned up the team house, Xihua, let's move in now." He said excitedly.

Liu Xihua was about to speak when Father Liu, who was standing beside her, said sternly, "Daguo, you don't want the land?"

Jiang Daguo blinked, "Dad, you know?"

Father Liu snorted coldly, "Are you still planning to hide this from us?"

Jiang Daguo hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant, I..."

"Without land, what are you going to do in the future? Where will you get food?" Liu's mother sighed, "I heard from Changping Changfa that your parents didn't give you a single acre of land. Humph, that's outrageous!"

"Dad, Mom, if we don't have land, then we don't have land. We can still make money by doing some side jobs." Liu Changping bought a tractor and helped people haul goods and grain, earning a lot of money, so he didn't care whether he had land or not.

But Liu's father and mother were traditional farmers, and they believed that a farmer would starve to death if he lost his land.

"How much can he earn? Daguo doesn't have a tractor like you to earn money from fuel. He only has a bicycle!" Liu's father shook his head and said worriedly.

"Without land, you have to buy every grain of rice with money," Liu's mother also said.

Jiang Daguo thought of his food delivery business, "Dad, Mom, I can also deliver food to the city."
