Chapter 174: Chapter 170: Money Flows In

After parting ways with Xue Jianian, Lu Jingqiu rode her bike straight to the suburban sand and gravel factory. Over here, purchasing sand and gravel didn't require any "tickets" - as long as you had the money, you could buy it. After all, you can't deny common folks the materials for building their homes just because they don't have a ticket.

They also had cement and sand here, and because Lu Jingqiu often came to haul sand with Aunt Liu, although it wasn't a lot, there were people she was familiar with. When they heard she was building a house, and even a two-story one at that, they were willing to give her a discount - twenty yuan per ton for cement.

The sand was fourteen yuan per ton, and after roughly estimating, she figured that just the cement and sand would cost her five or six hundred yuan.

She left them with an address and told them to deliver it in four or five days.
