Zhenhua hurried over and saw what Lan Yuliang and Yao Tianxiang said.

The two craftsmen looked around and, like Qi Lei, they used thread lumps and tape measure to measure the inclination angle and amplitude of the wall. However, the two men's measurements were more careful and comprehensive, and they discussed a few words from time to time.

After the measurement outside the house, Xu Jin and other teachers arrived, and everyone watched the two craftsmen together.

The students also came one after another, standing outside the classroom waiting.

About twenty minutes later, Yao Tianxiang and Lan Yuliang had a unified opinion.

Lan Yuliang said: "Master Yao and I discussed it and thought it was not a big problem and could be reinforced. After reinforcement, we can ensure safety within one year."

Zhenhua interrupted: "Qi Lei has also seen it just now, measured and analyzed it, and he said it would collapse at any time..."

"Qi Lei's building is not suitable for such a brick house." Lan Yuliang shook his head, pointed to the front and back walls and said:

"The old saying goes, Goushan is tilted outward for thousands of years. The front and back walls of this house are tilted outwards. This is not a big problem, because the upper cover is pressed and pulled, just like an arch bridge. The big problem is the gables at both ends and an inner mountain in the middle. The gables at both ends are also tilted outwards. This is easy to deal with, reinforce from the outside and support them with wood. The most troublesome thing is the inner gables. Although they can be reinforced with support, they are supported indoors. I am afraid that you will not be able to walk and work or something."

Zheng Huailiang was overjoyed and said, "Since that's the case, Principal Xu, let's hold on for a while. Next year, I'll see if I can flip the cover. The inner mountain will also be supported and hit the teachers' offices. The teachers will feel aggrieved, and I'm sorry to you."

Yao Tianxiang also smiled and said, "In the countryside, just hold on to the village."

Xu Jin and the teachers smiled bitterly and had to nod.

The old master was not good at saying anything, so he had to say, "Secretary Zheng, I have no objection to strengthening it for the time being, but next summer, you can't drag it down anymore. You must build these houses."

Zheng Huailiang was very happy and said, "Okay, okay, then that's it. Let's go to tomorrow. On Sunday, let the two masters work hard. Zhenhua is here to help. All the work needs are calculated. You can buy the materials you need, and you will be compensated for them after you buy them. The expenses for the reinforcement of the house this time are all calculated in our village, so we will pay!"

"Then I'll thank Secretary Zheng." Xu Jin was naturally dissatisfied, and thanked him lazily, and said to Zhenhua: "Zhenhua, ring the bell to class!"

Zhenhua nodded and was about to ring the bell, but remembered what Qi Lei’s mother asked him to do, so he said to Zheng Huailiang: "Secretary Zheng, wait for me, I rang the bell, I have something to tell you."

Zheng Huailiang nodded and waited in the office.

Zhenhua called the class bell and asked the students to read the book first. Then he ran back to find Zheng Huailiang, pulled him out of the door, took out Lan Yuzhi's 200 yuan, and told Lan Yuzhi's words.

"It's not easy, it's not easy. Qi Lei's mother, it's really hard to pull a few children by herself. Zhenhua told her, "I'm working too, and I really can't help it. Please understand more." Zheng Huailiang sighed.

Zhenhua nodded.

Zheng Huailiang handed the two hundred yuan to Zhenhua and said, "You can take this money first. Tomorrow morning, accompany the carpenter and bricklayer to Heyuan Town to buy materials. Come back and report to me to the real reimbursement."

Zhenhua nodded and said, "Okay, but Secretary Zheng should not forget to keep the accounts for these two hundred yuan."

"Of course, I will get the account soon." Zheng Huailiang waved his hand and smiled.

Zhenhua returned to the classroom to attend class.

The next day was Sunday. Zhenhua was in front of Yao Tianxiang's house in Dayaozhuang early in the morning, waiting for Lan Yuliang to meet.

Zhenhua didn't dare to tell his father about buying materials to reinforce the school building. If his father knew that he had 200 yuan in public funds in his pocket, he might have a bad idea again!

Lan Yuliang didn't come until seven o'clock and smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, this is just a half-day job. Let's go and buy the materials first."

There is no building materials in Hedong Town, so you must go to Heyuan Town.

The three of them took a tricycle and after half an hour, they arrived at the old wood market in Nantou, Heyuan Town.

There are a lot of old wood and old bricks and tiles here, as well as some prefabricated piles and old doors and windows.

Lan Yuliang said: "It's still early, so we have breakfast first. It's rare to do something for the public. We also take the opportunity to rot and eat an extra fried dough stick."

Zhenhua smiled and took two craftsmen to the breakfast shop for breakfast, and bought them a pack of cigarettes.

After breakfast, the three of them picked more than a dozen old wood and old boards and bought some iron nails. Zhenhua bought a bottle of red paint by the way and prepared to go back and write a warning sign.

When I returned to Dongwan Primary School, it was only ten o'clock.

Two craftsmen started working and made big heads, and Zhenhua helped.

The old master was idle and came to supervise the worker with a cane.

At noon, the three of them went home for dinner, and the wood was placed on campus and locked the door.

After lunch, we rested until two o'clock and continued to work. At five o'clock in the afternoon, the school building reinforcement project was completed and successfully completed.

Zhenhua asked the carpenter to make two wooden signs, and wrote the slogan "Danger, please do not touch" in red paint, and inserted it outside the gables at both ends.

The old master nodded repeatedly: "Zhenhua is meticulous and responsible, and is a good teacher!"

Zhenhua also paid twenty yuan to the two craftsmen according to Zheng Huailiang's instructions and said, "This is your wages. Secretary Zheng said that if you don't have food and drink to entertain you, give you a few more dollars, which is your living expenses."

"Thank you, thank you." The two masters received a huge sum of twenty yuan and were happy.

Zhenhua and the old master also went home.

After dinner, Zhenhua went to report the accounts to Zheng Huailiang.

Zheng Huailiang was having supper at home and insisted on pulling Zhenhua to have a drink.

Zhenhua refused, so he had to accompany him and took the bottle to pour wine.

Zheng Huailiang turned around and closed the door, whispered: "How much is the total expense today?"

Zhenhua took out the account book and reported the accounts one by one, saying, "We bought old wood, and we didn't dare to buy new ones, for fear of being stolen. The materials fee, plus the craftsman's wages and round-trip fees and other expenses, is a total of 165 yuan. I don't have my salary anymore, so I'm considering volunteer work for the school."

Zheng Huailiang looked at the branches of the accounting, tore it casually, and said, "You write another one, write a bill of 400 yuan."

"Four hundred?" Zhenhua was a little shocked.

Zheng Huailiang’s meaning is that he wants to embezzle?

Moreover, if you dare to make a 400-yuan account at 165, Zheng Huailiang's courage and appetite are too scary, right?

Zheng Huailiang seemed to know what Zhenhua was thinking and said with a smile: "Don't think I want to embezzle. If I want to make money, I won't be the village party secretary. You write another bill of 400 yuan and come to my house to report the bill after school tomorrow morning. I said that this is the 400 yuan withdrawal from Qi Lei's mother, and you used it on the reinforcement of the school building, and I let the accountant pay it in person."

Zhenhua still didn't understand and frowned and asked, "Secretary Zheng, what do you mean..."

Zheng Huailiang sighed: "Isn't Qi Lei's family difficult? I did this and helped him lose 200 yuan in withdrawals and take care of them secretly. Do you understand?"
