Those years when I raised bosses

Tong Tong and Wa gobbled up their own boxed lunch in front of everyone, which is also a kind of publicity. After all, the food they are willing to give to their son will definitely not have quality problems.Those who didn’t get a box lunch today are more determined to queue up early tomorrow.

Tong Tong turned away the "big sum" of ten yuan and 20 yuan that he received today, and changed it into hundred yuan bills at the small shop. He divided it into two stacks and carefully hid it in his trouser pocket. After collecting the stall, he rode an empty bike. Take the baby and return to the village in the city.It was less than 2 hours before and after.

The wedding banquet hosted by Liji Restaurant over there was not over yet, the guests were eating and drinking happily, the back kitchen was busy with insufficient manpower, and the boss had to serve the dishes himself.When Tong Tong came to return the car, Li Daniu took time out of his busy schedule to ask, "How about it, do you want to buy the remaining 600 boxes tomorrow?"

Tong Tong hesitated for a while and finally nodded, took out the full 6500 yuan from one pocket and handed it to Li Daniu, and said sincerely: "The final payment will be given to you today, plus yesterday's 3000 yuan deposit, we will settle it."

"Brother He is really refreshing. I will definitely not delay your business tomorrow. I will give you a few extra boxes of lunch like today. If you have time tomorrow morning, come to my place for breakfast. I will invite you two to apologize for what happened today."

If you promised to settle all the money on the first day when ordering the boxed lunch at the beginning, it is only right and proper to pay the final payment at this moment.But Tong Tong was supposed to pay the money tomorrow, but he paid the full amount one day earlier. Although there was no difference in the amount and the time was only one day earlier, Li Daniu had a completely different attitude. He accepted the money full of surprises, and the benefits were immediately exchanged to Tong Tong. , also willingly.Sometimes people's mentality is so subtle.If the order of talking and doing things is adjusted, the effect will be obviously different.

"Uncle Li, may I ask you something? If I take the boxed lunch tomorrow and don't need so much, and return it to you within 2 hours, will you accept it?" Tong Tong hoped to give himself an extra layer of protection.

Li Daniu nodded and said: "You can buy it as it is, it would be too dishonest if you don't accept it, but you will be deducted two yuan for each copy, how about it? After all, no one can say whether the leftovers can be sold again." .”

Although Li Daniu said that it seems that he is at a disadvantage, but in fact he has a lot of connections, even if it is really leftovers that have been turned over, he can sell them to familiar farms to recover some costs, not to mention the untouched packed lunches. After heating, there are a lot of people at dinner time, and it is cheaper by one yuan, but it is still marketable.

Both Tong Tong and Li Daniu felt that it was appropriate, and the two agreed, and Tong Tong felt relieved for the time being.

After the afternoon nap, Tong Tong took He Xiaolu to the mall again.This time, it's not just for cooling off, Tong Tong also plans to buy himself an outfit.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and the high-end "champion package" also needs to be cleaned up to be closer to the aesthetics of cultural people.If you still wear those half-worn street stalls left over from the original body, the image will be discounted, and it is easy to be picked on by those who deliberately find fault.In addition, selling boxed lunches is just a matter of these two days. After that, Tong Tong plans to go to a translation agency to get a job again. The clothes are more in line with the fashionable appearance of college students, so that he will not be underestimated.

Besides, I have about a thousand dollars to spare, so it's time to improve my life a little bit.Tong Tong reluctantly bought a 200 yuan domestic brand induction cooker, and spent more than 100 to buy a small frying pan, a small pot with a handle to heat milk and cook noodles. After gathering these guys, he can cook on the balcony Made simple meals.I went to the supermarket to replenish some eggs and vegetables, and bought some cooked meat. Since I didn’t have a refrigerator and couldn’t keep it in the hot weather, I just bought the amount that my father and I would eat for a meal, and I would buy it tomorrow.Satisfied, she returned to the rental room with her big and small bags.

He Xiaolu obediently didn't let his father hug him, insisted on walking all the time when he came out of the shopping mall, and even helped his father carry some light vegetables.Although it is tiring to walk so far and have short legs, He Xiaolu is very happy if he can not drag his father down.

Tong Tong had just put away his newly bought things and was about to cook when he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Xiao He, are you home?" It was a slightly tired male voice, not Liu Yin, the landlord's sister.

"At home, are you?" Tong Tong opened the door a crack, saw the weather-beaten face of the other party, and suddenly remembered that this was Han Fugui, the contractor who still owed the original half a year's salary.

In the first half of the year, the construction site where He Liantian worked was completed. Party A delayed paying part of the wages to the foreman for a while, saying that they would settle the balance after completing the acceptance procedures next month.Han Fugui was in charge of a dozen or so people, all of whom were unskilled odd jobs from all over the world. Without the guarantee of the foreman, it was impossible to find a way to enter the regular construction site.So everyone is more or less in awe of the foreman, and dare not offend easily.If you get along well, the foreman will find them when they have work next time, which is much more cost-effective than working hard on the labor market and waiting for strangers to pick and choose.

Han Fugui has always had a good reputation. Although he also takes some money from the wages of the subordinates, he seldom defaults on everyone's wages.This time, his old mother had a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and was hospitalized for a major operation, and the family did not have enough cash, so he had the cheek to ask everyone to delay the payment of wages for a few days, and the money would be loaned to him for emergency.

As soon as everyone heard it, the righteous ones agreed without saying a word, and the doubtful ones still asked Han Fugui to take away their wages.He Liantian was lucky enough to be recruited by Han Fugui, so he had the opportunity to enter the construction site with a good salary, and he was always grateful in his heart.Although my own family has already been unable to open the pot, seeing that the day to pay the rent is approaching, I still gritted my teeth and didn't mention it. I thought I was young and strong, and I could always find a new job by looking around. , Just wait until Han Fugui's turnover is opened.

Workers who knew that He Liantian had just passed away his wife, and those with a baby baby all privately advised him to think more about himself.Knowing people, knowing face but not knowing heart, who knows if Han Fugui is a liar.In case the foreman ran away with the money and never came back, it was not uncommon for such a thing to happen.

In this day and age, not everyone has a mobile phone in the hands of the foreman. Han Fugui left in a hurry, without hearing from him for a week.Everyone even sympathized with those who "lend" money to Han Fugui, and it seemed like they were running away.

Although he didn't say anything, He Liantian, who had been deceived in this way before, chose to swallow his anger and leave silently.In fact, there are still some fantasies in my heart, after all, there are so many bad people in this world.Perhaps Han Fugui's family really had an accident, and there was no time to contact the workers in the hectic.

As a result, Han Fugui actually came to the door on his own initiative today.Han Fugui has always written down the contact information of his workers, even if it is only a temporary address, or the phone numbers of relatives, friends and neighbors.Compared with other workers floating on the construction site, He Liantian, who rents a house in an urban village and lives with his family, is relatively stable and easy to find.After finishing the family affairs, Han Fugui returned to the imperial capital by car overnight, and went to He Liantian first without stopping.

"It's Lao Han, please come in." Tong Tong let Han Fugui into the room, made the only chair for him to sit on, and sat on the bed with the baby in his arms, acting cute.

Han Fugui entered the room and took a look around, only to see the patchwork of furniture that seemed to be bought from tatters, old-fashioned bed cabinets, broken tables and chairs, as well as simple cooking utensils on the balcony, and old clothes that were washed and turned white. The clothes all revealed the poor condition of He Liantian and his son.If I had known this before, I shouldn't have been greedy for more in the first two days, and I could just borrow other people's money, at least to pay He Liantian's salary.I really don't know how their father and son survived these days.

"Old Han, how is Auntie?" Tong Tong saw that Han Fugui didn't speak, with a sad expression on his face, so he had no choice but to start a conversation and say something first, so as not to sit and stare blankly.There is no tea and fruit at home for entertaining guests, and it is impossible to wash two cucumbers to entertain guests.

"Oh, my mother was not rescued, and she passed away the day before yesterday." Han Fugui said with emotion, "I always thought that money could solve everything. At the beginning, I focused on making money and rarely went home to accompany my mother. This time my mother had an accident, I brought enough money Going back to be a filial piety, let her live in the best hospital, use the most expensive medicine, pay thousands of ICU wards a day without blinking an eye, entrust a relationship to hire a well-known expert to perform the operation, but the result is still powerless... Really In response to the old saying, the child wants to support but the relative is not here...Xiao He, I'm sorry, I shouldn't talk about such nonsense. Brother, I came here specially to pay you back this time."

Although Tong Tong was not He Liantian himself, and he didn't feel so much gratitude to Han Fugui, but he understood the ways of the world, and hurriedly declined, "I'm sorry for the old Han, my aunt's funeral needs to be arranged, and the funeral will cost a lot of money. .If you are short on money, I am not in a hurry to use the money."

"Why should a silly boy say such things? I can't bear it anymore with my thick skin. I can owe other people's money. You still have a baby with you and you don't have a fixed income. I'm afraid there are too many places to spend money. Life is not rich." Han Fugui said while pointing out 5000 yuan from his pocket and handing it out to Tong Tong's hand, saying sincerely, "I take your heart, this is your salary. The rest Party A For those who have not settled, you still have 3000 yuan, if you need it, I will settle it for you right now."

"What's so funny about that?"

"It's okay, my second brother earned some money by doing business in the south. My mother passed away, and my second brother was the first to pay for the funeral. That's my real brother. I will pay him back in the future. He also supports me. Don’t let me live up to the trust of you brothers, and urge me to come out and pay back the money, so as not to worry about my conscience.”

Seeing Han Fugui's firm attitude, Tong Tong could only accept the 5000 yuan first, and said nothing about the other 3000 yuan.

Han Fugui only said that He Liantian was so polite because he was thinking about finding a part-time job at the construction site in the future. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Brother He. Even if we clear our wages today, I will recognize you as a good brother. What kind of engineering projects will you have in the future?" I need manpower, I will definitely find you. But recently I will stay in my hometown for a while. As the eldest son, I will also preside over the division of the family business left by my mother with my brothers and sisters. Alas... my youngest son used to I have been living with his grandma, and I will finish junior high school next year. Now that his grandma is gone, and he hasn't finished reading his junior books, he can't follow me around, and he still needs to be settled properly."
