At this time, the topic of An Jiadong was no longer talked about in the courtyard, but An Jiadong suddenly pushed the door in, which still scared them, after all, they were also bad men, and they just talked about it behind their backs.If you are bumped into by the main owner on the spot, it is still very embarrassing.A few people pretended to have nothing to do, and greeted An Jiadong with a grin, An Jiadong squeezed out an ugly expression on his face, and responded to a few people.The man with a sharp voice looked familiar, stepped forward and patted An Jiadong's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhang said that the salary will be paid when everyone is ready, and they are waiting for you, you can be regarded as coming." ”The man had a thin face, his facial skin was purple red from years of work on construction sites, his lips were chapped, his hands were rough, and there were many cracks on the backs of his hands, some of which were covered with medical tape, and some of the places that were in the way of work were randomly exposed.An Jiadong glanced at the other party lightly, and said slowly without smiling: "I just arrived, and I came here after posting the Spring Festival couplets at home." ”The sharp-voiced man looked at An Jiadong's expressionless appearance, his heart beat slightly, and he asked with concern: "What's the matter, Lao An, you're in a bad mood?"
”"Well, it's the end of the year, so I don't have to worry about money!"
An Jiadong looked at him in a daze for a while, sighed and said.Hearing that the other party was worried about money, the sharp-voiced man breathed a sigh of relief, and a similar sadness appeared on his face and sighed: "Who doesn't say yes, my second child will go to junior high school next year, and the family's expenses are big, alas." ”An Jiadong's eyes flickered, and he didn't answer, he thought of An Zishan, the second eldest of his own brother An Jiaye's family.That fan-like child, according to the situation in previous years, their family will go back to Zhujiagou to go to the grave this afternoon, or go back themselves, this situation bumps into them, it is not considered that they took the initiative to find it!
Thinking of this, An Jiadong didn't care about chatting with them, and hurriedly asked, "Where is Lao Zhang?"
Everyone is here, hurry up and pay your salary!
I'm in a bit of a hurry at home!
”The sharp-voiced man frowned slightly, pointed to the room next to him and said, "Settle accounts inside, you go over and take a look!"
”This package foreman Lao Zhang lives in the suburbs of the city, the location of the urban-rural junction, the yard of the house is buttoned up with glass, and the yard is not cold in the cold winter.The people of these construction teams sat at a jujube red table of eight immortals in the courtyard drinking tea, and Lao Zhang was settling accounts in the house.An Jiadong was stunned for a moment, raised his legs and walked into the house, as soon as he closed the door, the sharp-voiced man in the yard whispered to the two people next to him with disdain: "Phew!
This An Jiadong still thinks that he is the manager of a construction company, and he speaks commandingly, which is really gratifying!
”The man with a rough voice smiled and said: "That's not it, how can you say that when people are also officials, your Lao Zheng has not been doing a small job for a lifetime, what happened to you when people told you?"
”The sharp-throated man pouted, and said with disdain: "What's wrong with me doing a small job all my life, I do my duty, who is like him, messing with other people's wives, not a good bird." ”Several people laughed again, An Jiadong was retaliated against for messing with the relationship between men and women, which can be regarded as being completely characterized by them."
Squeaky."
The door of the inner room was pushed open, and An Jiadong walked out with a man who was slightly shorter than him, with a dark and slightly chubby face and a modest smile on his face.Several people instantly fell silent, stood up at the same time, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhang, you finally came out, will you pay your salary?"
If Lao An doesn't go in and call you, you can't finish it, right?
It's still Lao An's big face, haha. ”Lao Zhang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Nonsense, what does this have to do with the size of whose face, I haven't calculated the accounts yet, and I will definitely come out and send it to everyone as soon as I finish it, it's a coincidence that Lao An went in." ”An Jiadong looked at the appearance of this group of people, his eyes were a little blurry, and he felt that he was not a person from the same world as them at all, and the person next to him who shouted his old An used to be extremely respectful to himself.When I was still in Lianshan Construction Company, every time I saw someone who would inevitably shout "Brother An"!
Suddenly, An Jiadong's eyes were a little sour, his heart was blocked, and he was uncomfortable, and the sense of urgency to change the status quo became stronger.Several people sat down with a smile, Lao Zhang spread out the book in his hand and put it on the table of the Eight Immortals, and with the other hand, he put a stack of 100 yuan bills with blue backgrounds and four old men's heads next to him.Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Send it to Lao An first, Lao An said that there is an urgent matter at his house, the big guy has no opinion, right?"
”"No opinion, no opinion, whoever comes first is the same."
Several people hurriedly replied, with a good face and a smile.A smile appeared on the corner of An Jiadong's mouth, and he nodded to everyone to show his gratitude.Lao Zhang glanced at a few people, pointed to the contents of the notebook and said to An Jiadong: "Lao An, look, this is your working hour, right?"
”Hearing this, An Jiadong looked at Lao Zhang, took the notebook in the other party's hand, glanced at it and nodded, "Yes, that's right." ”Lao Zhang smiled, twisted a stack of hundred-yuan bills, dipped some saliva on his fingers with a "phew", and counted them, An Jiadong frowned when he looked at it."
Two thousand one, two thousand two, well, give Lao An, your salary, two thousand two, you point."
An Jiadong was stunned and took a small stack of banknotes handed over by the other party, and asked suspiciously: "No, Lao Zhang, isn't the salary two thousand and a half?"
”Lao Zhang nodded towards the dozen boxes of Lianshan liquor piled up next to him, and said with a wry smile: "The three hundred are topped with wine, this wine is not cheap, one hundred and fifty thousand boxes, there is really no way, Lao An, there are not many payments for the New Year." ”"There is not so much money to pay, so it can only be like this, if you don't want wine, you can only wait until next year's next payment to settle it for you."
An Jiadong's eyes widened and he looked at the other party in a daze, aren't you talking nonsense?
Didn't you say last time that the project money was okay this time?
Why is there not much money all of a sudden?
And the Lianshan liquor you put on the table is the cheapest 31-degree liquor, and it only sells more than 50 boxes outside, so you should be worth 15 dollars?
An Jiadong's face was very ugly, his mouth opened twice, but he didn't know what to say, but Lao Zhang just looked at him with a smile and didn't make a sound.The faces of the few people next to him also changed, looking at the liquor piled up behind them, their faces were gloomy, they all knew that Lao Zhang was ugly, but no one spoke first.They all know that they have suffered losses, but they are all waiting for others to speak first.In the end, An Jiadong did not object, nodded with a dull face, put the money into the inner pocket of his jacket, picked up two boxes of liquor and left.Lao Zhang sat on the chair steadily, and did not get up to see him off, but just looked at the back of An Jiadong leaving, and the corners of his mouth showed a trace of disdain.Tying two boxes of liquor worth "150 yuan" to the back seat of the bicycle, An Jiadong rode on the bike and left, facing the howling north wind and fluttering snowflakes and tears sliding down his eyes, turbulent like rain.Both hands clenched the cold and biting handlebars fiercely, and the back of his hands was iron-blue.An Jiadong is really fed up with such days at this time, he knows where his hope is, and he knows how to climb up again, from the bottom that made him collapse and aggrieved to the original middle position.Or even higher!
