The second brother briefly explained a few words to us, and then took us into the largest tent, when we opened the curtain and went in, Dabin, Guohao, and Uncle were playing mahjong with a thin middle-aged man, four people around the table, at this time it was the end of winter, and it was quite cold in the tent, so on the feet of the four people, each person put an electric heater, Rao is like this, everyone is still shivering.

"Yo, here, Xiao Er!" The uncle who faced the door of the tent saw us enter the door and said hello with a smile.

"Hey, Brother Dong asked me to send Xiao Fei over to familiarize myself with the construction site, you continue to play, hehe!" The second brother nodded in response, stood behind Guohao and watched them play mahjong, and then stretched out his hand and pointed at Ah Zhen and the two of them: "This is Wang Zhen and Shi Yigang, Xiao Fei's brothers, and they were also arranged by Brother Dong!"

"A tank of, it's really a smelly name!" the thin middle-aged man was amused when he heard this.

"Brother Lu, this is a new guy from our company, called Han Fei, Xiaofei, this is the contractor of the construction site, Lu You!"

"Friends, you're also a pretty graphic name!" Shi Yigang seized the opportunity and immediately hit a wave of backhands.

"You kid, you really don't suffer!" Lu You grinned, stood up and looked at the second brother: "Round two for me, I'll go out to see how the slag and stone shop is doing." ”

"How big is it?" the second brother nodded, sat in Lu You's place, and put his handbag aside.

"Two hundred and one rounds, just have fun. After Dabin played a south wind, he turned his head to look at us: "Okay, find a place to sit by yourself, the conditions of the construction site are not better than the company, it must be a little harder, you hurry up and adapt, otherwise you will have to wait until the end of the project." ”

"Don't be afraid of hardship, just have money!" Ah Zhen agreed very truthfully and sat on the bed on the side.

"Hehe!" Dabin smiled when he heard this, not taking a stubble.

More than 20 minutes later, the second brother won more than 300 yuan, reached out and put the money in his pocket, and looked at his watch: "It's almost time, I have to go back to the city, Brother Dong is still waiting for me!"

"You grandson, why do you run away every time you win money?" Guohao pushed the mahjong tiles in his hand: "What's the matter, the southerners came to buy the mine, and it was done?"

"Hmm. The second brother nodded happily: "I have met such a big job this year, I have to be careful, I have to talk to the other side, I will take the buyer to see the mine in the afternoon, if this business is negotiated, at least these can be left!" The second brother said, stretched out two fingers, and smiled mysteriously.

"You help me bring a message to Brother Dong, if this thing is done, I have to make a big arrangement afterwards!" Dabin also laughed when he heard this, our company does not have its own physical business now, and the main business in front of us is to rely on the two sides of the usual trade in minerals, but the value of minerals is too high, ordinary people can't afford to buy it, it is effortless to buy, and it may not be able to do this business, so all year round, we can contact one or two big businesses, which can ensure that our group of people have no worries about food and clothing.

"It's necessary, Brother Dong said, if this deal is done, after the first month, everyone will go to Sanya collectively!"

"Dong Ge is mighty!"

“......！”

The second brother simply chatted with Guohao and Dabin, and then drove away, we chatted for a while, sat for less than half an hour, and then it was time for dinner, Jin Peng, Ziqian and Mingjie also drove a car back, entered the tent, everyone said hello to each other, and prepared to eat.

The five tents on the construction site have different divisions of labor, the largest two of which are where we work and sleep, and one is the canteen, and the rest is the workers' dormitory.

Inside the tent, each of us was holding an aluminum lunch box, eating lunch simply, my uncle saw that our new arrivals had lost their appetite, pursed his lips and smiled: "The conditions on the construction site are relatively difficult, and this section of our road is just sandwiched between two towns, and there are no villages nearby, so there is no place to spend money, so you can only buy some vegetables that are easy to store and store. ”

"It's okay, just eat enough!" I am not very picky about what I eat, and after two bites of food, I looked at my uncle: "Uncle, look at a few of us, what should we do on a regular basis?"

"Tsk!"

After listening to my words, my uncle sighed a little embarrassed: "Our project is not big, and before you came, it was a long time to start construction, everyone's work is also a radish and a pit, I am in charge of the accounts, Guohao is in charge of the feeding, Dabin is in charge of safety, Mingjie and their three cubs are responsible for the production on the construction site, you are suddenly here, I am really not easy to arrange." ”

"There's nothing bad to arrange, if not, let the three of them work night shifts, now the construction schedule is tight, I also discussed with Guohao in the morning, and I plan to go to another contractor team, working two shifts day and night." Dabin drank the bulk liquor in a disposable paper cup, and said in a casual tone.

"Brother Bin, in this kind of weather, it's quite a crime to work at night, besides, there is a contractor staring, we don't need to look at ourselves in the middle of the night......" Jin Peng heard that I was assigned to the night shift, and he was about to explain, but after being glared at by Mingjie, he naturally stopped talking.

"Okay, then you can go to the night shift, and you don't have to work, just keep an eye on the workers, and let them not be lazy!" Guohao also said: "After all, you came late, there is really no suitable position arrangement, everyone is for the company, and you are tired, just bear with it...... But if you really don't want to do it, I won't force you, then you can choose to go back to the company, or sleep here, rest assured, the shares that should be given to you are not a lot. In the end, Guohao specially emphasized the matter of shares to me.

"Well, good!" I have no objection to Dabin's arrangement, because this project is now halfway through, and it will be closed in more than half a month at most, and I don't want to worry about them because of this matter, so I gladly accepted it.

When my uncle heard that I had agreed, he turned around and rummaged around on the table, and handed me a car key: "There is a silver Alto parked outside the tent, you can just drive this car at night." ”

"......" I looked at the car keys handed over by my uncle, but I didn't answer them.

"Hehe, don't get me wrong, it's not that my uncle doesn't give you a good car, but the company usually only has two cars for running projects, an old cheetah and this Alto, the car key of the cheetah has been given to Mingjie, and only this one ......"

"Uncle, I didn't mean that!" I saw that my uncle had misunderstood, so I shook my head and smiled: "Among the three of us, there is no ...... who can drive"

"If you mix in society, you can't drive. After listening to me, my uncle nodded: "That's it, I'll find someone in the afternoon to teach you to drive, now in this society, it's too inconvenient to not drive, you can not have a driver's license, but the car must be able to drive!"

"Uncle, I'll teach them, it just so happens that I'm fine in the afternoon. When Jin Peng heard this, he responded with a smile.

"Okay, be safe!"

"Hey!"

......

The rest of our project, still stretching seven or eight kilometers, after eating, Ziqian and Mingjie drove the cheetah, and continued to go to the construction site to inspect, Jin Peng is driving the Alto, pulling us in the opposite direction, the road over there has been repaired, but the end is sealed, has not yet opened to traffic, the straight oil road, it is logical to become our practice site, everyone is young, learn very fast, when the sky is dark, although I am not very skilled, but can barely drive the car, after learning to drive, I am excited, running back and forth along the road, one afternoon ran empty half a tank of oil。

At night, the second engineering team found by Lu You entered the construction site as scheduled, after a short rest, the night began to start in full swing, after the handover of the workers, I also drove the broken Alto, with Ah Zhen and Shi Yigang constantly patrolling along the road construction section, the three of us don't know anything about the project, not so much staring at the workers, in fact, it is just wandering around aimlessly.

Two o'clock in the morning.

In the winter of the Northeast, the temperature difference between day and night is particularly large, the temperature in the early morning can often reach about minus 20 degrees, and the Alto we drove because of disrepair, the air conditioner has already broken down, the air exhaled by people in it, soon condensed into frost, and the window flowers on the glass, I am responsible for driving, my hands and feet have lost consciousness, and I stepped on the accelerator and brake completely by instinct.

"Phineas...... Stop the car... I... I can't do it anymore, if it goes on like this... I'm going to freeze to death... It's so cold in the car, I want to get out of the car and go outside to warm up for a while!" Shi Yigang sat in the car, constantly warming his hands.

"Xiaofei, otherwise let's stop patrolling, let's go back to the tent for a while, it's so cold this day, the down jacket is no different from a piece of paper, I'm almost freezing!"

'Squeak!'

I clicked on the brakes, parked Alto on the side of the road, and wrapped his neckline: "I can't go back, today is our first day on the construction site, if we can't stand it all night, tomorrow Guohao They will definitely have to talk to us, bear with it, if you want to get the respect of others, you have to fight for some things." ”

"Listen to you, but even if you don't go back to the tent, let's not sit in the car, this broken Alto is not hot at all, and it leaks everywhere, I feel that it is not warm inside or outside, otherwise let's get out of the car, help the workers load a few cars of sand, exercise, sweat, maybe it can be better!"

"It's okay, I have a solution!" I glanced around, pushed the door open, got out of the car, and reached out to stop a loader at work.

"What's the matter, buddy?" Lu You introduced us to the workers at a meeting in the evening, and the loader driver also recognized me, so after stopping the car, he asked me politely.

"Do you have a pipe in the car or something, can pump out a little diesel fuel from the fuel tank for me?" When I was on Liu Aihua's mine, I could often see a forklift or hook machine, and there would be a long plastic pipe on it, which was used to drain the oil inside when repairing the fuel tank.

"There are pipes, but what do you want diesel for?" The forklift driver glanced at my Alto and smiled: "You little thing, you're still a diesel car?"

"Don't ask, find a drink bottle and give me some oil, and then cut that tree for me!" I told the driver, rubbing my hands together and pointing to a dead poplar tree on the side of the road.

"Okay, wait! I've been carrying the sand for half a night, just change the target, refresh!" the forklift driver grinned, and turned around happily.

'Buzz!'

'Click!'

With the roar of the loader, the dead tree was broken at once, and it was broken into several pieces with a shovel, and then the driver got out of the car, inserted the pipe into the fuel tank, and blew into it, and after a while, a bottle of mineral water and diesel was picked up.

Ten minutes later.

The three of us set up a simple little campfire on the edge of the construction site.

"Whew!"

Ah Zhen roasted the fire for a long time, and then his whole body trembled, and he let out a long breath: "Fuck, it's finally relieved, I feel that Wang Guohao and Xu Qingbin, the two grandsons, are just finding fault and harming us!"
