Volume 1: A Hundred Years of Love Chapter 25: The Drunkard
The reality is so cruel!
In the eyes of the cunning brother, the Han squad leader, because of unemployment, no longer has the heroic spirit of the past!
The first PR after the New Year, just like that, failed!
I originally thought that I could spend some money and invite the old squad leader to have a meal, but it was blown away by a gust of wind that came late, and the hope of recommending Wang Shiyi to enter the factory came to naught, and the cunning brother was very frustrated.
After drifting in Shenzhen for three years, the cunning brother knows very well in his heart that there is no recommendation, a male worker, if he wants to enter a factory with an air-conditioned workshop, it is difficult!
If Wang Shiyi entered the factory where he worked, and he would have taken care of each other, the days of working would not be so boring, and he would not be homesick.
It seems that coming out to work is far more difficult than imagined!
Three years ago, his cunning brother just came out to work, although he was tall and straight, but he was young, only fifteen years old, he was an out-and-out child laborer, without a temporary residence permit, his first stop was Dongguan, those banana forests in Machong, the stone bench under the banyan tree of the Dongjiang River, he did not sleep less.
At the recommendation of his co-workers, he came to Shenzhen, entered an American-funded optical fiber patch cord production plant, and started a stable part-time career.
It will not be smooth sailing when you come out to work for the first time.
Fortunately, I rented a temporary room for ten yuan, wise, this decision was wise!
He didn't want to share his past with Wang Shiyi, and smoked his cigarette desperately as he walked.
In the alleyway of the farmer's house, the festive song of "Wishing you prosperity" by the superstar Andy Lau is still echoing.
Everyone who comes to Shenzhen to work is looking forward to the day when they will get rich as soon as possible.
It is the night that comes faster than getting rich.
Shenzhen's dazzling night is coming!
At night, the farmer's house also shines brightly and becomes brilliant.
Young men and women, with snacks or apples in their hands, walked past them grinning.
Naturally, the street shops on the first floor of the rental house were quite prosperous, surrounded by young boys and girls who got off work.
There were so many people on the streets, and no one noticed these two dejected guys.
Back in the temporary room, the two of them lowered their heads, as if they had lost a battle, and had nothing to say.
When men are excited, they like to share their happiness, but when they are sad, they like to hold it in their hearts and bear it silently.
The cunning brother was full of enthusiasm and wanted to introduce Wang Shiyi to the factory where he worked, and on the wine table of the "Sichuan West Tavern" downstairs, along with the rich foam coming out of the beer, it had quietly burst.
He was like a defeated rooster, discouraged, and as soon as he entered the room, he threw his body heavily on the bed, and the simple bed was overwhelmed, and it made a "quack" and difficult noise.
The public restroom on the third floor is at the end of the corridor, and the corridor is equipped with energy-saving lights, which are dark on weekdays and nights, and when there is a vibration, it will emit a little dim light.
Therefore, some timid tenants, feeling more and more timid, wear slippers to go to the bathroom at night, are running back and forth, the sound of the slippers on the ground, can not be transmitted in the narrow corridor, the sound is particularly loud.
The gap in the temporary door is already large, and when the sound rolls through the hallway, it will frighten ordinary tenants.
Wang Shiyi had a premonition of something, leaned against the door, and quietly lit a cigarette.
"Brother cunning, don't think too much, Shenzhen is so big, I don't believe I can't find a job!" Wang Shiyi comforted.
"It's all my fault, I can't help you much!" Brother Cunning sighed.
There are indeed a lot of jobs in Shenzhen, but the electronics factories here all claim to oppose racial discrimination and gender discrimination, but when they recruit workers, they only recruit female workers, which is a big deal of gender discrimination.
Liars, all liars!
How easy is it for a male worker to find a satisfactory job? After all, Wang Shiyi is working for the first time, how does he know the difficulties involved?
The two of them talked for a while, but they couldn't get excited.
About half an hour later, I saw Wang Shiyi open the door of the rental house, stomp on the ground with his foot, and the dim street lights in the corridor were turned on, and he took some toiletries in his hand and ran in the direction of the public toilet.
At this time, he saw his own shadow, in the narrow corridor, stretched by the magic lights, and the shadow jumped and made all kinds of exaggerated gestures, like a ghost that could not be banished, and this ghost had been following him all along.
Wang Shiyi is not a timid person, he walked quietly towards the end of the corridor, at this time, he saw a young woman out of the bathroom, the woman came out with pants, maybe he didn't see Wang Shiyi, only to see the woman wearing cotton slippers, like an Antarctic penguin, "Da Da" ran into the rental house opposite.
Seeing this, Wang Shiyi covered his mouth and laughed lowly.
Walking into the bathroom and turning on the faucet, he found that the faucet made of polyvinyl chloride was not only small, but also the water flow was small, and the water pressure was very low during the peak period of water use.
After he washed his face, he spread his feet widely, squeezed out a few points of toothpaste, and swept it into his mouth, the foam of the toothpaste was really rich, he looked up, and saw a small mirror glued to the wall with transparent glue, he operated the toothbrush like a saw, and through the mirror, he looked through the mirror with his eyes at the mouth full of white foam, these white flowers, quietly blooming on his face.
He then snuggled his mouth at himself in the mirror, squeezed his eyes, and then smiled at himself with satisfaction, chatting about his frustration.
Through the mirror, he saw that the smile was still blooming on his face, and he was happier and more carefree than he was in reality, because he didn't have any thoughts in the mirror.
A person without a mind will not suffer.
Just as Wang Shiyi was narcissistically staring at the mirror, the door of the bathroom was knocked in horror, and a hoarse voice shouted outside the door: "Brother, don't ...... Don't occupy the pit...... Don't, ...... fast Get out of here...... Come out. ”
"Fuck, I've met an alcoholic. Wang Shiyi cursed in his heart as he opened the door of the bathroom.
At this time, he saw a middle-aged man with a mouth full of wine, staggering in, the man ignored him, walked to the edge of the pit, and suddenly the flat head fell down, and a big mouthful of something poured out of his stomach with a "wow".
As soon as Wang Shiyi heard the voice and smelled the smell, he wanted to run outside with his toiletries.
Just as he wanted to run, he heard the man's faint crying, he walked over slowly, patted him on the shoulder with his left hand and said, "Brother, are you drunk?"
"Also...... Still...... It's still a little bit closer, almost eight ...... Eight became. The middle-aged man said.
Wang Shiyi believed that he was only eighty percent drunk, and he could still walk to the bathroom alone, so he could not be regarded as very drunk.
This man must have been drunk at the gathering of friends and colleagues, and it is inevitable that he will get drunk in the first month, Wang Shiyi thought, and when he thought like this, he opened his mouth and asked him: "Brother, are you a hero at the wine table?" Drinking in the first month, five achievements are good, there is no need to fight for that face to drink eighty percent." ”
The middle-aged man heard Wang Shiyi's question, and the choked voice that had just stopped turned into the strongest sound like a flood in an instant, and in front of him, he cried loudly and unscrupulously like a child, and while crying, he walked towards the outside of the bathroom, and may have vomited all the things in his stomach, including wine, so when he cried and left, his steps no longer looked so shaky, but the shadow swayed very much in the light, jumping up and down like a naughty monkey.
Seeing the drunken man's back leave, Wang Shiyi thought, happy in the first month, there is no problem with drinking some wine, all men in their thirties, what kind of hero do they have when they drink with friends, and they are drunk like this, it is really embarrassing. He thought as he shook his head, turned around and went back to the bathroom.
