Chapter 113 Free labor, don’t let it go in vain
In the evening, it’s time to finish work.
The village chief is here.
Riding a bicycle, the hem of his clothes was blown by the wind. With a cheerful smile on his face, he said cheerfully,
"I bring you good news. After the construction of this A building, including the one opposite, is also assigned to you.”
Tan Shaoyang's expression did not waver at all, and he had obviously expected this result.
On the other hand, the remaining people looked happy.
Who wouldn’t be happy to be able to make more money?
Zhang Yishui surrounded his father and chirped and asked, "That pretty boy can't hold on anymore and wants to bring in reinforcements? I guessed this would be the result."
"It's just his three-legged cat. Isn’t it wishful thinking to still want to build a building in the future? ”
"Don't let people live in it, even if you let a dog stay inside, it will be dangerous!"
"This boy is stupid enough to provoke us as soon as he came here, and later he killed a capable master. He was so angry that he deserved not to make any money!”
“When he saw us making money, he was probably so angry that his neck would twist. I felt so happy just imagining his face.”< br>
“All of this depends on Lao San. If he didn’t have this ability, how could we make money?”
“We built these two rows of shops in the town. Others can see it when they come to the market, which gives me a deep sense of accomplishment.”
Tan Shaoyang listened, feeling warm in his heart. They could not only make money but also let people see their abilities. Who could not be happy?
He is also a normal person, and he also has a hollow heart!
After the village chief brought the good news, he returned to the village. If he delayed any longer, he would have to discredit himself and go home.
Although these young men who heard the good news were tired, they were full of energy. There was no trace of fatigue on their faces and they kept chatting.
Back at the house, I fried a bowl of tomato-braised fish fillet. Each one held the bowl and ate deliciously.
"Fortunately, we have the sea to survive, so we don't have to worry about food. Otherwise, all the money we earn would be spent just buying vegetables."
I just came from the village, how can I live without food?
A variety of sun-dried seafood is more than enough to last a week, so you don’t have to pay for it.
Tan Shaoyang reminded, "Stop chatting, eat, wash and sleep. You will still be tired in the next few days."
At this time, there was no special machinery for paving, stirring The good mud has to be transported upstairs, and a thick layer of cement slurry needs to be laid, which is a labor-intensive job.
If you don’t recharge your batteries now, you won’t be able to support yourself later.
There was a sound of urging, and after eating, they dispersed.
When I open my eyes, it’s a new day, busy all the time.
Slow work yields fine work. After the wooden boards were put up and then the steel bars were added, it took a few days for everything to be completed.
The pretty boy had been staring at them, watching their progress, and couldn't help but greet them.
Zhang Yishui frowned when he saw him coming, "This pretty boy is definitely up to no good. Is he planning some dirty tricks again?"
Tan Shaoyang comforted him, "I don't think he wants to cause trouble. , you have such a strong sense of accomplishment in building this floor, they probably want to get a share of the pie.”
“After all, in the town, these two floors are the brightest so far. Isn’t it something worth showing off when you boast that you built it yourself?”
“I guess that’s why I came here with this mentality.”
“Front. I may have mentioned it to the village chief, but he should have blocked me, but now I am unwilling to come back.”
Zhang Yishui scratched his head. His father didn't say anything, and he didn't know if there were such twists and turns.
"If he really has such an idea, what should he do? Reject people directly? Isn't this too wishful thinking?"
After working hard to build the house, he Come and take advantage, there is such a good thing, but this is treating others as fools!
Imagining this possibility, Zhang Yishui gritted his teeth and wished he could give the other party a beating.
“Why should we let him take away the reputation of the house we built? How shameless!”
Tan Shaoyang said, "Just choke the person, don't punch the person to death."
"The other party gives us the opportunity to make money, let's not go too far."
Hearing these suggestive words, Zhang Yishui turned to look at him, "Lao San, why did I listen to you and want him to help with the work?"
The shock in his eyes could not be hidden. , couldn't believe what the third child said, he was so frightened that he could hardly stand still.
“You don’t really think so, do you?”
Tan Shaoyang nodded affirmatively, confirming his idea, "Planning a building is a physical job, and you have to lay a thick layer of mud. With just the five of us, we can't finish it in a day."
"It must be done. If they want to take advantage of the increase in manpower, they have to show it. They are not looking for anyone. How can you control them?"
"You should be so angry first. , and then reluctantly asked him to stay."
Zhang Yishui instantly understood what he wanted to express, and it was feasible to keep people doing manual labor.
"Okay! Your concerns are not unreasonable."
"Just wait and see how I handle these grandsons."
As he said this, he pulled Xu Qiang aside and walked over in a majestic manner. The proud look on his face looked like it was not... He's easy to mess with and won't stop until he teaches someone a lesson.
“Hey! Are you here to learn from the experience and see how to build a house?”
“This is not a casual viewing, but there is a fee.”
“ After all, the house you built is totally crooked. It is impossible to build it without learning it properly. It is not that simple to learn the old skills of the master.”
"But when I look at you like this, I don't think you can learn it. Your hands and feet are so limp that you don't look like you can work."
"It's better to go home and stay comfortable. I’m not yet weaned, I’m really laughing my ass off trying to make money like others.”
The pretty boy: “…” He was severely criticized even before he said the purpose of coming here.
“We haven’t learned it yet, how do we know whether we can learn it or not?”
“Just because I look white, it doesn’t mean I can’t work!”
Zhang Yishui choked, why was he so good at arguing when he was in front of him?
In front of the third son, he was as dumb as a grandson and could not say a word. How come his bones became hard in front of him?
Obviously they are all human beings, isn’t this looking down on him?
"You can work, but it depends on whether we let you do it?"
"See? Our house has been built, and the second floor will be built soon. Yes, you have taken advantage of such great achievements, why should you?”
"You are handsome, but you have a big face, and you don't have any points at all."
The pretty boy choked, and was so angry that he didn't want to just leave. Going to be blue. "Tell me, what do you need to do to be willing to let us stay and work?"
In order to stay, I really swallowed this bad breath. No matter what requests he made, I have to grit my teeth and hold on.
Zhang Yishui and Xu Qiang looked at each other, curled their lips and smiled. They bumped into each other, so don't blame them for being judgmental. "Do you really want to stay, or do you want to cause trouble?"
"You look so arrogant, with your nostrils turned upward. We don't want to be like that old master who was so angry that you drove him away."
The pretty boy suppressed his temper and gave repeated assurances. He said, "We will do whatever you ask us to do. We will never cause trouble."
Xu Qiang snorted coldly and said, "You talk like farts. Who knows what will happen then." ? ”
“We relaxed and agreed to let you come, but you turned around and were lazy. When the time came, you were just working hard and didn’t do your job well. How can we beat you? ”
“It doesn’t matter whether you want to make money or not, we still want to make money and leave quickly!”
The pretty boy promised, "That won't happen. We can be responsible for living and carrying the mud. As long as you need it, there will be no delay."
Zhang Yishui snorted, with a look of distrust on his face "What you say is better than what you sing, who knows what the result will be?"
"When you came to squeeze us in the front, you were so merciless! I don't know if you thought it was pride when you raised your chin Where’s the peacock!”
The two of them kept talking to each other, which made the pretty boy feel heartbroken. If it weren’t for the sake of face, he would have just walked away.
You can be mentally prepared to come, but you will be reluctant to leave.
If I had known this would happen, I would have stopped complaining in front of them. In the end, I didn't get any advantage and was still being manipulated.
It was said at the beginning that they were the ones who built this shop. When relatives inquired about it, he didn’t want to be embarrassed without his responsibility.
Even if you bite the bullet, you have to keep going.
In this case, we can only request again and again.
After procrastinating for a while, until the little pretty face ran out of patience and felt that there was no hope, Zhang Yishui and Zhang Yishui relaxed and said with a very embarrassed look,
"Since you have repeatedly requested, then reluctantly agree!"
"We are not like you, who are fussy and make trouble for others. The people in the village are open-minded, so we should be tolerant to you."
"The building will be laid tomorrow. We will gather here at 5:30. If we can't see your shadow when we start the construction, then don't come."
"Let me explain in advance. Don't let me see you lazy. You look so proud, and the living mud is not enough, you can just leave of your own accord!"
He let out a fierce breath, and his whole body became proud. He was so excited when he saw the pretty boy and the others leaving in disgrace. No matter how open the corners of the mouth are, they can no longer be straightened.
Zhang Yishui hooked Xu Qiang's shoulders and asked triumphantly, "Qiangzi, how difficult was it for you just now?"
Xu Qiang nodded, "Looking at him like a defeated rooster is so satisfying. "
"When you want to bully others in the future, I'm afraid you have to think twice to avoid thinking that you are lawless and always superior to others."
The two of them explained the situation of the battle to Tan Shaoyang. There. He was gesticulating and talking with great joy. You can imagine how proud he was.
Tan Shaoyang said: "Are you feeling happy? Just hurry up and work, there is still some finishing touches left."
Time passed in the blink of an eye.
The next day it was dark and we came to the construction site.
As expected, the pretty boys also came over.
Tan Shaoyang curled his lips and smiled when he saw them. Don't think that if you stay, it will be over. It is normal to feel dizzy from exhaustion and have weak legs and feet.
The floor needs to be paved with a thick layer of cement, which requires countless amounts of mud. Just the living mud can make his hands and feet weak.
Tan Shaoyang specially made a sling to facilitate the transportation of mud. Otherwise, it would take the year of the monkey and the year of the horse to transport enough mud.
Even so, pulling the rope is quite tiring.
It was cool in the morning and it was very comfortable to work. When the sun gradually came out, it shone on people's bodies, and the sweat flowed down drop by drop, making it feel sour when it dripped into the eyes.
The sweat was wiped off one after another, the mouth was dry, and the tired mouth was dry. There was still no sign of stopping, and I was still working hard.
While stopping to catch his breath and take a sip of water, Zhang Yishui started shouting on the roof, "What are you grinding on down there? Hurry up, there's not enough mud up there."
"Don't be grinding around there, come here and work quickly."
The young boy had to get up when he heard the urging. If he had known this, why should he not have made the old master angry in the first place? Leave, otherwise why would he be so angry!
I can only drag my tired body to continue working.
I kept doing it until my eyes were blurred and I was about to faint, and then I heard them say that I needed to rest.
Zhang Yishui's legs and feet felt weak and he was about to kneel down. He had ignored the amount of mud. His hands were numb just by pumping the mud up and down.
"Third brother, it's a good thing you had the foresight and didn't drive them away. Otherwise, how could it be done with just the five of us?"
"According to the current trend, even two more people can do it. !"
Tan Shaoyang nodded, "Why else do you think I would be so merciful as to keep them? I have to add more people anyway, wouldn't it be more interesting to see these pretty boys tired?"
< br>“When you are so tired that you have no time to make trouble.”
“Would you feel more comfortable venting your anger like this?”
Several people listened, gave a thumbs up, and praised without hesitation, "It has to be you! You have the foresight to think that we have such an idea!"
"Hurry up and go to bed after eating. I was really tired after a long sleep.”
The morning was spent like this, and I was even more exhausted in the afternoon.
I was scared looking at the scorching sun. I felt faint from exhaustion before I even went to work.
The face of the pretty boy was sunburned, like an eggplant beaten by frost. He was bubbling, but there was still vitality there. Let alone looking for trouble, he almost lost the strength to stand up. .
Tan Shaoyang and others were busy again.
A few people didn't want to be kicked out, so they dragged their broken bodies to follow. If they hadn't been so tired looking at them, they would have thought they were deliberately teasing them!
In this way, the sky was completely dark until the time to stop.
The roof of the building is paved with a very flat road. Looking at it, I feel a deep sense of accomplishment. This is what they worked so hard to build.
The floor is successfully constructed. You have to wait a few days for it to solidify before you can build the second floor according to the layout plan.
Everyone was so tired that they had no time to think about anything else. They even went out to prepare a meal for dinner. They were really exhausted and had no energy to cook.
“I thought building a house would be tiring, but I didn’t expect that laying the floor would be the most tiring.”
Tan Shaoyang waved his sore arms, that is, there is little equipment now, but in the future there will be equipment for building the floor, mud, The machine stirs and can be transported to the floor. It can be done for most of the day, and it will be so tiring there.
