Chapter 22, the origin of Brother Baozi
Some people's reputation is obtained by fighting, and some people's reputation is obtained by planning, but Chen Zhiyuan's reputation is obtained by moving bricks.
In this regard, Chen Zhiyuan did not feel any surprise, Old Man Cao taught him when he was teaching, three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion, as long as you are willing to do it, it is gold that will always shine, of course, you must shine in the right position.
There was a young man on the construction site who liked to move bricks, and the news quickly spread to the ears of all foremen. Basically, it can be determined that as long as Chen Zhiyuan goes to a construction site, the number of bricks moved at that construction site will increase dramatically that day.
At first, the foreman of the construction site where Chen Zhiyuan went was very happy, thinking that he was a hard-working worker, but it didn't come to pass, Chen Zhiyuan decisively changed the construction site the next day after knowing that he no longer needed to move bricks. Of course, this did not cause Chen Zhiyuan any trouble to find a job on the construction site, because the mobility of small workers is indeed very large, unless it is a long-term and short-term worker who has signed a contract with the foreman, but because their wages are calculated according to time, the enthusiasm of long-term and short-term workers is not high at all.
Now Chen Zhiyuan no longer needs to queue up to find a job at the construction site, basically after the bricks are moved that afternoon, someone will come over and tell him which construction sites will move bricks tomorrow, and Chen Zhiyuan can go directly to get the sign the next day.
Now Brother Baozi has also become Chen Zhiyuan's symbol, because the face may not be recognized, and the name may be repeated or used fraudulently, but it is different if there is more Brother Baozi, as long as Brother Baozi is there, then everyone knows that Chen Zhiyuan, who is very good at moving bricks, must be on this construction site. In order to let Chen Zhiyuan come to their construction site to move bricks the next day, some foremen will quietly stuff Chen Zhiyuan with a few copper leaves when they find Chen Zhiyuan, hoping that he can go the next day, and it will be okay on the third day.
Now Chen Zhiyuan can say that he is a high-prolific class in odd jobs, and no one dares to refute this sentence, after all, even Liu Qiang can't move more than 50 bluestone slabs every day, so it won't last many days, and once he is injured, the cost of soup medicine can't be covered by moving for a day or two.
Of course, the rich Chen Zhiyuan is no longer satisfied with living in the calf shed in the slums, and after the introduction of his brother Liu Qiang, Chen Zhiyuan is now renting a family near the construction site, with three silver leaves a month, which is completely affordable for Chen Zhiyuan now.
Life gradually began to get better, and troubles began to follow, that is, everyone knew that Chen Zhiyuan had a lot of strength and staying power, so now not many people are willing to move bricks with Chen Zhiyuan.
If you don't compare, you can't compare, Chen Zhiyuan doesn't have to compare to make money, and now Chen Zhiyuan is not a problem to move sixty bricks a day.
But gradually, Chen Zhiyuan found that moving bricks has not improved him very much, a bluestone slab of forty kilograms is right, and it is indeed very tiring to come and go for a day, but once he adapts, the exercise is only endurance, and the upper limit of strength cannot be raised.
It's not that Chen Zhiyuan doesn't want to move the two pieces together, first, everyone refuses to do it for him, because the consequences of accidentally falling are very serious, and second, the bluestone slab is too big, and Chen Zhiyuan can't carry two pieces at a time.
On this day, Chen Zhiyuan walked home after moving the bricks, and Liu Qiang quietly followed behind, but the hiding place was not very good, and he was soon discovered by Chen Zhiyuan.
"Ahem, ah, it's Brother Zhiyuan, it's a coincidence that I met you again, how about it, do you have time to come to my house to sit?" The appearance of a big man twisting is very interesting, especially when this man is still relatively strong.
Chen Zhiyuan couldn't stand Liu Qiang's appearance, so he hurriedly pulled Brother Baozi and waved his hand and said, "Brother Liu, don't, you've been with me for three days, you better tell me if you have something, otherwise I will panic when I look at you." ”
"Hehe, actually, it's nothing, the main thing is that I want you to come to my house to sit, everyone lives not far away, walk around each other and pull in the neighborhood." ”
If Chen Zhiyuan hadn't clearly remembered that his house and Liu Qiang's house lived a whole street apart, Chen Zhiyuan would have almost believed in Liu Qiang's evil.
"Brother Liu, I respect you and call you Brother Liu, please explain things clearly, you are like this, it is really difficult for me to do it. "It's a showdown, Chen Zhiyuan really can't figure out what such a big man wants to do?
"Alas, okay, I won't hide it from you, Brother Zhiyuan, I see that you and my son are not much different in age, but they are so capable, so I thought, why don't you get into the relationship and let you teach me those two unsuccessful sons, how about you take a look?" Liu Qiang thought about it, and finally decided to tell his purpose.
"Hmm, how can I do it? There are more people on this construction site who are more capable than me, not to mention anything else, Brother Liu, you yourself are better than me, why do you want me to teach your son?" Chen Zhiyuan is a little incomprehensible, although the relationship between him and Liu Qiang is okay now, and it is true that everyone on the construction site says that he Chen Zhiyuan is the first to move bricks, but whether it is the first or not everyone knows in their hearts, and how can anyone ask someone to teach you to move bricks? Isn't this?
After hesitating for a while, Liu Qiang finally slapped his thigh, looked at Chen Zhiyuan and said, "Hey, I won't pretend anymore, I'll just speak, Brother Zhiyuan, let me ask you, what kind of cultivator are you?"
Liu Qiang's question stopped Chen Zhiyuan, he was just an ordinary person, and he didn't show anything strange, how did he see that he was talking about cultivation?
After a pause, Chen Zhiyuan opened his mouth and asked, "How do you know that I am a cultivator?"
"Brother, it's very boring for you to say this. Liu Qiang was a little anxious when he heard Chen Zhiyuan's words, don't you know how others know that you are a cultivator?
"Look at the construction site, which normal person can work at such a high intensity for a month in a row, and this strength is getting stronger and stronger? It's not that I blow it, half of the people on the construction site know that you can cultivate, but everyone doesn't say it. ”
Chen Zhiyuan was speechless, his feelings were discovered because he worked hard to move bricks, is everyone so idle?" "Then I am Xiuzhen and you want me to teach your son, what's the matter?"
"This and this, well, this, I actually thought, I don't dare to think about what kind of exercises you cultivate, but I just want my son to have more contact with you, if I can learn two or three tricks from you, what if the qi you brought when you are cultivating happens to pass by my son and just makes him able to cultivate?" Liu Qiang was a little incoherent, but Chen Zhiyuan understood the meaning.
What Liu Qiang thought about was nothing more than to let his son follow Chen Zhiyuan, and he didn't ask for too much, probably with the idea of being close to Zhu and being close to Mo, hoping that his son would have more contact with Chen Zhiyuan, maybe he would be able to produce a Xiuzhen in his own family. Not to mention anything else, you can earn money to support your family by moving bricks.
"How do you know if I'm a bad guy and dare to push my son on me? Aren't you afraid that if something happens?" Chen Zhiyuan still felt a little strange, where did Liu Qiang, an ordinary person, come from to be so bold? This is his son, just push it to a dangerous person who has only known him for a month, if something really happens, Chen Zhiyuan will run away, then it will be over?
"Hehe, I still trust my brother about this, my old Liu can't do anything else, I'm still a good hand in terms of appearance and strength, I know at a glance that you're not a bad person. ”
"Oh, then can you tell who I am?" Chen Zhiyuan became interested, wondering what Liu Qiang had seen.
"That can't be, I'm not a god. Liu Qiang denied it again and again, as if it was not him who said he would look at it just now, but Liu Qiang hesitated, and quietly leaned over to Chen Zhiyuan's side, and said: "Brother Zhiyuan, let me ask you, you shouldn't know who this one is next to you, right?"
To be honest, after so long, Chen Zhiyuan really didn't know who Brother Baozi was, so he motioned for Liu Qiang to continue.
"I'm telling you, don't say I said it. When he saw Chen Zhiyuan nodding, Liu Qiang continued: "You should have met him in the slums, I don't know what your relationship is, but I still advise you not to get too close to him." He is a sinner thrown out of the Lin family's dungeon, in case the Lin family comes out to arrest someone again, then what should you do?"
This is very unexpected news, Chen Zhiyuan didn't expect that someone would know Brother Bao's identity, not to mention the specific identity, at least know where he came from. But how did Brother Baozi get caught and why was he released?
"How do you know?" asked Chen Zhiyuan.
"Well, in fact, everyone knows that there are a lot of such abnormal people in the slums, all of whom came out of the Lin family's dungeon, and they were fine before they went in, but they came out like that. "This Chen Zhiyuan knows, there are many people in the slums who are mentally abnormal, and there are also crippled ones, but I didn't expect them to come out of the Lin family's dungeon, what is the Lin family doing?
"Then do you know what his name was before, where did he live, and did he have any family?" Others don't care, Chen Zhiyuan still wants to know if there are any people related to Brother Baozi in Nanfeng City, if so, don't ask others to accept Brother Baozi, at least know what Brother Baozi's name is.
"I don't know, most of the people in the slums are people who have been arrested from other places, and there used to be poor people in Southwind City, but now they are gone. After thinking about it, Liu Qiang still chose to tell Chen Zhiyuan this fact, and then added: "If you don't believe it, you can look at his head, there are five finger prints on the head of a slum with an abnormal brain, which is what a doctor I met before who went to the slum to give free medical treatment to those people told me." ”
Hearing this, Chen Zhiyuan's whole body froze for a moment, five finger prints? What is this? Chen Zhiyuan still has five finger prints on his head, can there be anything else besides soul searching?
Chen Zhiyuan carefully picked up Brother Baozi's hair, indeed, although there was no scar, there were still finger-like marks clearly visible under the hair.
"Lin family!" Chen Zhiyuan said silently in his heart.
