Zhengyangmen: Don’t date Su Meng
Chapter 11 Earning Money
The two returned to the workshop, and Li Chengtao went to circle around Cai Xiaoli again. Cai Xiaoli raised her head and asked casually, "Why did Chunming look for you?"
"Nothing...just some...small things." Li Chengtao is not a big mouth.
He felt that there were too few opportunities to make money this way. If everyone knew about his promotion, more people would go and he would earn much less money. What if there were too many people and the boss lowered the price?
"Forget it." Cai Xiaoli suppressed her smile, lowered her head and recorded the data in the notebook, then raised her voice and said, "Are you two thinking of something shameful again? And why are you two so secretive lately? You run away as soon as you get off work. Tell me, what did you do?"
Li Chengtao almost took action, but was stopped by Cai Xiaoli's cold eyes. He hurriedly said, "Auntie, please keep your voice down. Everyone can hear it."
Li Chengtao looked around and made sure no one noticed them. He then whispered, "We didn't...go anywhere. Chunming just asked me...to go to the construction site to work together and earn some...extra money."
"Make money?" Cai Xiaoli became excited when talking about money and immediately asked, "Where to make money? What's the price?"
Li Chengtao originally had no resistance to Cai Xiaoli, so when she asked him about it, he naturally told her everything.
"That's it. Chunming just happened to be able to earn some hard-earned money. We thought about it and decided that this... thing could work out. So we decided to go to the Temple of Heaven after get off work and work there for ten days... half a month."
"Then can I go?" Cai Xiaoli was very interested.
To be precise, she is interested in all jobs that can earn money. People who have experienced poverty know what it feels like to be broke and understand the embarrassment of borrowing money, so they don't want to go through that process again.
Cai Xiaoli is one of them.
Her father's illness and hospitalization used up all the family savings, and she had borrowed money from all the relatives. Now when she shows up, the other parties refuse to see her, for fear that she will ask for money again.
So what she wants to do most now is to make money, and then pay back the money she borrowed from relatives so that she can stand up straight and live her life with dignity.
"This... I'm not... clear. Let me go find... Chunming and you ask him on the spot." Li Chengtao went to find Han Chunming without saying a word.
Cai Xiaoli looked at Li Chengtao's back and felt emotional.
[This Li Chengtao is not very smart, but he is kind-hearted! ]
…………
Han Chunming looked at Li Chengtao helplessly. He knew that Li Chengtao had no resistance to women, but he didn't expect him to surrender so quickly. In less than three minutes, he had sold out all his tricks.
"Chun...Ming, let's go. What are you standing there for? Cai Xiaoli is still...waiting for you."
Hearing Li Chengtao's urging, Han Chunming had no choice but to follow.
There is no other way. You have to recognize the brother you chose yourself, even if it means crying.
When Cai Xiaoli saw Han Chunming, her expression became obviously much warmer, but Li Chengtao thought that this expression was directed at him because he called Han Chunming over.
Hmm, this logic seems a bit weird.
"Chunming, Taozi told me that you have a way to make money, can you take me with you?" Cai Xiaoli looked at him expectantly.
Han Chunming's voice was soft but firm, and every word seemed to be carefully considered: "No!"
[Crack! 】
Cai Xiaoli was struck by lightning and the smile on her face froze.
"Chunming, what are you doing?" Li Chengtao was the first to get anxious.
Han Chunming waved his hand, "I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry, listen to me. I said the construction site is in urgent need of manpower, but they only recruit male workers, not female workers, so of course they can't take you with them."
Li Chengtao also slapped his head and said, "Hey, I... forgot about this."
Cai Xiaoli knew that the construction site had heavy work and only hired male workers. She could understand that the deadline was tight and the task was heavy, so she definitely couldn't waste time. She was also aware of the physical strength gap between men and women.
At this time, Han Chunming felt much more comfortable. This era is really great.
If it were in the future, the fairies would just be [Title], and the title would be - Family members, who understands, it's the 21st century now, how can there still be people discriminating against women, who understands!
Hey, T0 is so scary!
After dealing with Cai Xiaoli, Han Chunming pulled Li Chengtao to a corner and told him, "Don't be so loudmouthed in the future. The fewer people who know about this, the more money we can make. You don't want the construction site to stop hiring if we don't work, do you?"
Li Chengtao nodded, held up three fingers and swore, "I... promise, I won't tell anyone!"
When the two separated, it was like a meeting of secret agents, mysterious but useless!
When the bell rang for the end of get off work, the two of them still gathered at the door.
"Just... go?" Li Chengtao asked.
"Not appropriate." Han Chunming shook his head and sat directly in the back seat. "Take me home first."
"No, brother, we... agreed to go straight to... the Temple of Heaven, why should we go back?" Li Chengtao asked.
Han Chunming patted his schoolbag and said, "What should I do with the bread in here? Besides, if I don't go back, my mother will be very worried, so I have to go back and tell her first.
Go ahead, let's go, stop talking nonsense."
"Okay, you... are my brother." Li Chengtao had no choice but to pedal hard to move forward.
"As long as you know."
Han Chunming sat in the back seat, feeling relaxed and at ease.
…………
"Mom, Taozi and I have something to do in a while, you guys can have dinner first, I'll just have a bite when I come back, I'm leaving now."
Seeing Han Chunming leaving in a hurry, Han's mother immediately asked, "Where are you going?"
"Nothing, you go ahead and do your work." Han Chunming pulled Li Chengtao and walked quickly.
"Auntie...goodbye!"
Li Chengtao could only say hello, and then was pulled away by Han Chunming.
"Oh, Chunming, why are you in such a hurry? You almost knocked me down." Uncle Guo covered his chest with his hands, as if he was frightened.
"Uncle Guo, I hope you are okay. We have something to do and will leave first. We will see you later."
Han Chunming left without explaining.
"He's out fooling around again. Alas, this child is hopeless." Uncle Guo shook his head with some regret.
…………
"See? I didn't lie to you." Han Chunming pointed at the construction site and asked Li Chengtao to find a place to park. The two of them walked quickly towards the room with a sign saying "Workers Wanted". Sitting inside was the man who had talked to Han Chunming in the morning.
"Brother, we are here."
The middle-aged man looked up and saw Han Chunming was in a trance for two seconds, then he smiled and said, "It's you, you really brought people with you, not bad, come, register first."
The two quickly registered their names, ages, and times, and then couldn't wait to go to work and earn money.
"Okay, I won't waste any more time. The cart is over there, and the shovel is over there too. Just go and push the stones. Look, there's that big pile of stones. Fill up a small cart from there and push it along the road to the open space at the back. There's someone in charge of registration there, so just report your names.
It’s 25 cents per cart. When you leave, remember to calculate how many carts you pushed, so as to avoid problems when settling the bill later.
Ten days and a settlement, is that okay?"
"No." They both answered.
"Okay, my surname is Wang. If you have any problems, come to me directly. Go ahead. I see you are getting impatient waiting." The person in charge surnamed Wang smiled and waved his hand, asking them to put on their helmets and get to work.
Li Chengtao was the most excited and trotted forward.
Both of them were young men with plenty of strength. They only thought about making money, so they used their shovels very quickly and filled a cart with stones in the blink of an eye.
"Walk."
Han Chunming shouted and led the charge. Li Chengtao shouted again and followed quickly, with sparks and lightning flying all the way, making many people frown.
"Where did these two young fools come from?" A man who was pushing a cart slowly asked unhappily.
"Hey, who knows? I think it was someone Lao Wang specially hired to embarrass everyone." Another person speculated maliciously.
"Humph, brainless thing."
Although the man said this, he put some more strength in his hands. When the people next to him saw that he was speeding up, they also sped up.
Involution is that simple.
When a person starts to curl up, you only have two choices: follow the curl up or lie down!
…………
"Taozi, work harder. If we can pull another twenty carts, we will be able to do it together. Today we will have a perfect number." Han Chunming urged, but the shovel loaded with stones did not stop.
"to make."
Li Chengtao is also a person who can endure hardships. He has no complaints at all and instead looks even more excited.
The two men loaded the car, threw down their shovels and started sprinting.
"MD, are you going to let us live?" The man gritted his teeth and silently increased the speed of loading the truck.
…………
"Today we will each complete 50 cars. Tomorrow we will go earlier and come back later, and try to complete 70 cars." Han Chunming encouraged on the way home.
"No...problem, but, Chun...ming, tomorrow it's your turn... to give me a ride. Let's take turns." Li Chengtao said, panting.
Carrying stones is very strenuous work, and today was their first time doing it, so they didn't hold back at all. Now he felt his legs going weak and his soles were aching.
"Okay, I'll give you a ride tomorrow." Han Chunming readily agreed, "Remember to go back and soak your feet tonight, otherwise you may not be able to get out of bed tomorrow."
Li Chengtao nodded, then thought of something and said, "Chunming, should we... continue to resell bread?"
Han Chunming frowned. This is a good question.
He could earn 20 cents from reselling a loaf of bread, which was equivalent to a cart of stones, but the quantity was too small to make much money. But then again, a mosquito leg was still meat, and he couldn't just despise his wife now that he could make money.
Inexplicably, there are some scumbags!
"Let's go ahead and talk about it when we can't do it anymore." Han Chunming made the final decision, and the matter was settled.
In the evening, when Han Chunming was eating, Han Chunsheng and Han Chunxue came to ask him what he did in the evening. Han Chunming didn't say, but just said that he went to help a friend.
If he told them, all the money he earned would definitely be confiscated by Han's mother.
If someone really keeps the money nowadays in a passbook, he would be a big fool.
Tonight, Han Chunming did not read a book for the first time. After soaking his feet, he went straight to bed and started snoring three seconds later.
"Tsk."
Han Chunsheng shook his head, turned off the lights and went to sleep.
The next day at noon, in the cafeteria.
"Buy some extra steamed buns for meals in the future, and eat a couple of bites before working at night, otherwise you will not have the energy." Han Chunming suggested.
Li Chengtao gave a thumbs up.
After get off work, the two of them ran the fastest. Han Chunming pushed the bike, and when they were out of the factory, Li Chengtao jumped into the back seat. Han Chunming kicked the bike, and the two of them ran straight to the Temple of Heaven.
A steamed bun was eaten very quickly, and the two of them had finished their dinner before arriving at the construction site.
Last night they told their families that they would be back later so they wouldn’t have to wait for them for dinner. Now all they have to do is – do it!
Two people per car are in stark contrast to those who share two people in a car.
The speed is naturally incomparable.
The person in charge, Lao Wang, looked at the two people running and nodded with satisfaction. This time he recruited the right people, who were much better than those old-fashioned ones before.
[If everyone could be like them, there wouldn’t be any problem with the construction period. ]
The two of them completed the target of 70 cars and territories. Li Chengtao was still not satisfied, so Han Chunming stopped him. "That's enough work for today. It won't be worth it if you tire yourself out. Let's go home."
Han Chunming drove Li Chengtao at night, and he felt the feeling of weak legs along the way.
For several days in a row, Han Chunming and Li Chengtao went to the construction site every night to transport stones without even showing their figures. Many people in the courtyard wondered if he was doing something shameful.
Today is the weekend. Han Chunming just came back from the construction site in the morning. Now after dinner he is getting ready to go out again.
Sleep? Not happening.
How can you sleep well at your age? The right thing to do is to get up and work!
As soon as he arrived in the alley, he met Su Meng, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. The latter was holding two information bags with a look of joy on her face.
"Hey." Han Chunming greeted him first. After all, it would be rude not to talk when meeting someone. After all, the other party was his potential trading partner.
Su Meng rolled her eyes at Han Chunming when she saw him and wanted to leave immediately, but she couldn't help her curiosity and asked, "What have you been doing these past few days? Why can't I see you?"
"Nothing, just hanging out with friends." Han Chunming replied truthfully.
It's really just fooling around and making money.
"Forget it." Su Meng said unhappily, then raised the file bag in her hand and asked Han Chunming: "Guess what's in my hand?"
Just as Han Chunming was about to reply, Li Chengtao attacked him from behind.
"Chunming, let's go..."
Han Chunming got in the car immediately and waved to Su Meng, "See you later."
Su Meng looked at Han Chunming being picked up by a bicycle and instantly became angry.
“Han Chunming, if I pay attention to you again I’ll be a dog, ahhhhhhhh!”
Cheng Jianjun just came out of the courtyard. He was delighted when he heard Su Meng's words. This was the opportunity. He was about to step forward and say hello.
"roll!"
Su Meng roared and pushed Cheng Jianjun away.
???
Cheng Jianjun was confused. How could this be so real? He had just helped Su Meng solve a problem at work, and now she turned against him?
His face looked ugly and his fists were clenched tightly. There was only one person who caused this result!
"Han Chunming, I'm not done with you!"
Han Chunming, who was far away, was once again innocently implicated, and he had no idea about it at all.
It’s a blame falling from the sky!
