1273 Come Over Immediately

Xia Zhe hugged Qiao Mei and said, “No problem! We definitely won’t cause trouble for Eldest Brother!”

“Go back home now! Don’t stay here and bother me! I still have a lot of work to do!” Xia Wen waved his hand and said disdainfully.

Before leaving, Xia Zhe stood at the door and said, “Eldest Brother, remember to come home when you have time. Xia Xing is always thinking of you! I don’t know that kids can already recognize people at such a young age.”

Xia Wen could not help but smile. He said gently, “Alright, I understand.”

Recently, he had been so busy that he had forgotten about going back to visit the two babies. He did not intend to get married and have children anymore. He was about to turn 40 years old and did not want to be bothered with matters of the heart again.

It would be enough for him to see Xia Zhe’s two children grow up. It appeared Xia He and Deng Fan seemed ready to discuss marriage plans soon. He was satisfied as long as his family was happy.

Qiao Mei hurriedly went home with Xia Zhe and asked him to quickly contact those people he knew. It would be best if there were people who knew how to drive. Only people like He Ning, who did not need anything, could stand living in such a sparsely populated area like the suburbs.

Qiao Mei still hoped that these people could live in the capital. This way, they could bring Li Gui along with them when they went to the suburbs every morning. Li Gui was already getting on in years, so it was better that she did not learn how to drive. She was so timid and might get scared out of her wits if she got into an accident.

Xia Zhe thought of three people at first instance. Chi Ze used to drive when he was in the army and was a meticulous and considerate person. Mao Hang used to work in the cookhouse, so he definitely had no problem with cooking. Also, Huang Xu was not bad either. He was very hardworking and capable.

“Then make the calls quickly! Ask them all to come over! Come with their families!” Qiao Mei said eagerly.

“Do you really want them to bring their entire family? They might bring many people with them!” Xia Zhe said.

After considering it, Qiao Mei felt that she could not be too generous for now. She must plan it out carefully. She should not let them live in her place for free. If they did not want to pay rent, then their salary would have to be lower. It was better to just put a price tag on it and charge them 15 dollars a month for rent. They could choose to rent multiple rooms or buy over the rooms, but this arrangement would only last until the end of this year for now.

If they wanted to buy the rooms, it was not up to them to say how many they wanted. They could only buy the number of rooms which tally with the number of children they had. The price definitely would not be the same as what Zhou Shuang and the rest paid. She would sell the rooms to them at market price so they could at least rest assured that they would not be making a loss.

“I think the rent for the first room should be 10 dollars a month. If their children want to have their own rooms, then the rent will be 15 dollars a month for each subsequent room. What do you think?” Xia Zhe said.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea! Aren’t you just forcing all of them to live in the same room? Five dollars is enough for a family to eat for a week! Let’s just fix it at 15 dollars per room. No matter how many people they squeeze inside it, it’s still 15 dollars a room,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia Zhe felt that what Qiao Mei said made sense, so he wrote all these things down and sent out three letters to the three men. He also left his contact information in the letters. Whether they agreed to the arrangement or not, they had to call him back.

A few days later, Xia Zhe received the first call. Chi Ze had a forthright personality and a loud voice. Just by hearing his voice over the phone, Xia Zhe could already tell how excited he was.

“Xiao Zhe! Is what you write in your letter true? My wife is so worried about this! That’s why she asks me to call you quickly,” Chi Ze shouted loudly.

“Yes, it’s all true. We’ve already tidied up all the rooms. It all depends on whether you’re willing to come and work with us. However, accommodation is not free. As I wrote in my letter, you can put it on credit for now and pay us back when you make money. If you can’t manage to make any money, we won’t ask you for a single cent,” Xia Zhe said readily.

“Alright! Then wait for me! My wife and I will come to the capital to look for you immediately!” Chi Ze said happily.

The other two men had similar reactions to Chi Ze. Once they received the news, they immediately rushed to the capital from the countryside. They did not bring their children with them and left the children to their parents. After all, they did not know if they would be able to earn a lot of money. They could always bring the children and their parents over after they had settled down.
