Chapter III
As soon as he heard that Lao Huang wanted to borrow money by himself, Tian Donkey's heart "chuckled", because Lao Huang was a person, he still heard about it. www.biquge.info It is said that in these years, there are still some problems with eating, drinking and having fun, so he always earns less and spends more, and it is common to make ends meet and even eat food. Although he Tian Donkey had not seen Lao Huang's flowers and wines with his own eyes, of course he knew what the consequences of lending money to Lao Huang were. I once heard Lao Smoking Gun mention that Lao Huang actually has a wife and children at home, and an old mother who is still worrying about her son and doing housework when she is old, but Lao Huang never sends money home, as soon as he has money, he goes to eat and drink, and even spends money on other women. Even he went to prostitute women, saying that it was not a big deal to solve physical needs. It's more chic than a bachelor outside! However, all the enjoyment of life and chic are based on money, so the days of buying scenery with hard-earned money like Lao Huang can't last for a few days, so he is always borrowing money everywhere, always complaining about life, complaining about the boss and complaining about the society, always trying to package his selfishness and laziness, and even always borrowing money and not being scolded as a liar Lao Huang still continues his old scoundrel old fritter style of life philosophy with a face of indifference, and his life success has become a burden for others.
Therefore, Tian Donkey is embarrassed, for Lao Huang's borrowing money, whether he borrows or not, borrowing it is equivalent to a meat bun beating a dog without returning, whether it is a cent or a cent, it is all his own hard work and sweat in exchange, lending Lao Huang to buy chic, he is really unwilling in his heart, and he is reluctant, but if he doesn't borrow, he can't send away the old Huang in front of him with a pitiful face and a helpless face that needs to be rescued, so this so-called chat threw a big bomb to Tian Donkey at the beginning, It really shook his life and made him helpless, so, this time, it was his turn to be silent.
Lao Huang's old fritter oil can reverse black and white, confuse right and wrong, and can package a shameless thing with no conscience, no humanity and no morality like borrowing money, which has no dignity and is even used by him, into a kind of easy thing that comes with his mouth open, and can also put the person who is borrowed money on the moral step and can't get up and down, and even becomes a big bad person who has no heavenly reason, no morality and no sympathy if he doesn't borrow. For a young and kind person like Tian Donkey who still believes in the beauty of society and is a white rabbit in Lao Huang's eyes, he is really not Lao Huang's opponent, it can be said that Lao Huang did not come to Tian Donkey to borrow money at the beginning It is already a mercy to him. Therefore, this time it seems that he came to Tian Donkey to borrow money suddenly, but in fact, it is probably not sudden. To borrow money, of course, he was short of money, and of course, he borrowed all the workers and bosses who had nowhere to borrow before he started on Tian Donkey.
"Hey" Lao Huang looked at the silent Tian Donkey, sighed heavily, and then said, "I know you also have difficulties, brother, I am not a last resort, I will not open this mouth, you don't know how faceless it is to beg someone, I, I really ...... Hey, don't say it, it's better to embarrass your brother if you talk too much, forget it, I still won't say it"
Lao Huang's words really made Tian Donkey's face a little hot, and he hurriedly persuaded him.
"Brother Huang, don't think like that, I know the difficulties, and I know it, it's not easy for anyone, but ......"
Before Tian Donkey finished speaking, Lao Huang waved his hand to stop him from continuing, but blamed himself with a repentant face in front of him, and said, "Hey, brother, don't say anything, just think that I didn't open this mouth, you see this trouble, I'm also old, and I came to you to borrow money for you, although you are a bachelor and don't usually spend much money, but you must also have your own plans, no one's money in this world is easy to earn, you say that I haven't made any money all year round, and I am unlucky, It's that I don't have the ability, I shouldn't have dragged others down, hey, I don't know what my old lady eats and drinks at home, my wife and children are also looking forward to me taking the money back for the New Year, but I, hey, I guess I don't dare to go home for the New Year this year, I really don't have the face to go home."
If the words of Lao Huang in front of him made Tian Donkey's face hot, then the words in the back really made him burn in the face, because Lao Huang's reason for borrowing money was too difficult for him to refuse and Lao Huang's attitude was too sincere, so at this time, Tian Donkey's heart was already blaming himself, he regretted that he should not listen to the gossip of other workers, and decided that Lao Huang was an old oilman, Lao Huang was also a person, he had a family and a mouth, and now he borrowed money for the sake of his family, if it wasn't for the fact that there was no work in the cement factory during this time, Lao Huang would not have opened his mouth to himself, Hey, I blame myself for preconceived prejudices that Lao Huang is a talent, and I really shouldn't be.
The changes on Tian Donkey's face did not escape Lao Huang's eyes, looking at Tian Donkey's red face, he just didn't take the bait, Lao Huang came to a plan again, and suddenly stood up to leave.
"Hey, it's me Huang Zhiqiang who is too incompetent, forget it, don't say anything, big brother, you just didn't come today, I'm leaving, disturb!"
As he spoke, Lao Huang turned around and was about to leave. I don't know if it was a ghost or Tian Donkey's sudden neurosis, but before Lao Huang really turned around and left, Tian Donkey actually stood up first and grabbed Lao Huang's arm, and said hurriedly.
"Brother Huang, don't leave yet, I'll borrow it."
Tian Donkey himself couldn't figure out why his tongue and mouth said that sentence? Probably because he felt compassion for Lao Huang and was brainwashed by Lao Huang again. In short, now it's not Lao Huang who is pitifully begging Tian Donkey to borrow money, but Tian Donkey's sincere face is to lend money to Lao Huang.
"Brother Huang, how much do you want to borrow?"
"Brother, I heard you right."
When Lao Huang heard that Tian Donkey was going to lend him money, he was excited in his heart and asked with a surprised expression on his face, as if Tian Donkey was so surprised to lend him money.
Tian Donkey nodded, and then asked, "Brother Huang, tell me, how much do you want to borrow?" ”
"Two thousand!"
Lao Huang was afraid that Tian Donkey would regret it, so he quickly blurted out two fingers, saying that he borrowed no more, no less, enough for Tian Donkey, a stunned fool, to feel distressed for two days.
Indeed, Tian Donkey's heart was distressed, no, to be exact, his heart began to drip blood. Two thousand yuan, for others, may be a small number, but for his donkey, it is simply an astronomical amount, how many cement bags he has to carry to save money, and these two thousand yuan in his hometown are more than the entire annual income of their whole family on a few acres of barren land combined! With so much money, how could Lao Huang say it so easily? Moreover, after so many years of wandering outside, the money he saved even with the belt and flesh on his body is less than 10,000 yuan, this Lao Huang is a lion with his mouth wide open, and as soon as he opens his mouth, he will borrow 2,000 by himself, this is not borrowing money, this is killing people!
It seems that Lao Huang's sentence of "two thousand" is really a dagger, pierced Tian Donkey's heart, making the expression on his whole face twitch, and it seems that that sentence is a spell, which instantly froze Tian Donkey's body and made his brain blank.
"Brother? Tian Donkey Brothers? Are you okay? ”
In Lao Huang's eager call, Tian Donkey came back to his senses and looked at Lao Huang blankly, probably Lao Huang also saw Tian Donkey's reaction and guessed that Tian Donkey was actually not as rich as he thought, so he corrected his goal in time and changed his words.
"Hey, I didn't expect to embarrass my brother again, it seems that my own hole is too big, and my brother can't help me make it up, so, brother, don't be too embarrassed, the ancients said that emergency is not to help the poor, you can borrow as much as you can help me, I can borrow as much as I want, it's really not good, I'll find someone else to find a way, in fact, Boss Cheng still has a little money from me, if he wasn't here today, I wouldn't be embarrassed brother you"
"Brother Huang, how much should I borrow for you?"
This sentence is actually more like a self-talk, but Lao Huang heard it really and clearly, so he followed Tian Donkey's words and said.
"Or borrow a thousand, if you really don't have it, eight hundred is fine, in fact, I'm not afraid of your jokes, brother, I guess you didn't drag down alone, and I didn't see how you spent money indiscriminately, so I thought you had a little money on you, but I didn't expect you to help me, hey, I deserve it, don't say anything, don't say anything"
In Lao Huang's mouth, the unit of money is calculated in "thousand", so it is either two thousand or one thousand, at least, it is also eight hundred, but in the life of Tian Donkey, money is calculated by "points", one cent and one cent...... How many cents is a thousand? Hey, he deserves his field donkey is uneducated, and he can't even count this, hey, he deserves his field donkey to have a little strength to carry cement bags and earn a few dollars and be targeted to borrow money, hey, he deserves to lend Lao Huang money, if he didn't pull Lao Huang just now, Lao Huang would obviously be able to leave! Ay!!
At this time, Tian Donkey, really crying, laughing, originally, his guess in his heart is that Lao Huang borrowed money, borrowed one hundred and two hundred, and it was up to the sky, who would have thought that his appetite was so big, and, now, Lao Huang is also considerate, from two thousand to one thousand, and it is okay to break a thousand, as long as eight hundred, this is not borrowed by himself, is it reasonable? Now, it's really hard to ride a tiger!
"That, that...... Brother Huang, when do you want this money? ”
"It's better now, I'll use it in a hurry, I guess my brother's money has always been on him, and he hasn't deposited it in the bank, right?"
"No, I don't have an ID card, I don't have a bank card"
Tian Donkey'er's truthful confession aroused Lao Huang's curiosity even more, and Lao Huang asked in surprise as if he was looking at a different race.
"What? Don't have an ID? What's going on? Could it be that you are a black family? Or are you a person with a problem with public security? ”
"No, no, hey, it's hard to say, don't say it, Brother Huang, I'll lend you money first"
"Okay, that's right, you lend it to me first, and when Kaichun has more work, I'll pay you back as soon as I calculate the salary."
Although he agreed to borrow money, Tian Donkey really didn't dare to guarantee that the money lent to Lao Huang could be recovered, like this, knowing that it was a meat bun beating a dog and throwing out the bun, it was simply a self-harm behavior, too painful, so Tian Donkey also had a small abacus in his heart at this time, ready to bargain with Lao Huang, even if he borrowed a hundred less, it was equivalent to making a lot of money, although this is his own money, but to be able to borrow less is to stop his life, which is much easier than carrying a cement bag to make money.
Thinking so, Tian Donkey said to Lao Huang.
"Okay, I'll borrow it, but Brother Huang, to be honest, I'm not afraid that you will laugh at me, I really don't have much money, so see if I can borrow you eight hundred first, you don't say I'm stingy, I really don't have any money"
"Okay! I Huang Zhiqiang don't like to embarrass people, you can do as much as you want, how much is your mind, didn't I just say it, borrow more and borrow less, I can't eat it, brother, aren't you? That's called embarrassment."
"Well, Brother Huang, then it's decided"
Although the problem of borrowing money has been settled for the time being, what should be done about the problem of withdrawing money? Because Tian Donkey's little money, has always been on his body, when working, in order to prevent accidental loss, he always hid in the old shoe under the broken bed board, as the saying goes, wealth is not exposed, if you take the liberty to withdraw money, how much money do you have, then Lao Huang is not clear to see, if Lao Huang sees that he has money and does not lend him money, is it not offended? As soon as he thought of this, Tian Donkey was worried and didn't know why. However, when he was embarrassed, Lao Huang's mobile phone rang.
This is really a ridiculous thing! In this world, the so-called poor people who borrow money everywhere use modern communication tools such as mobile phones, and he Tian Donkey, who is concentrating on saving money and dreaming of going back to his hometown to live a good life, does not even have a mobile phone, and it can even be said that so far, he has only seen mobile phones and telephones in other people's hands, and he has never even touched the magic phone!
However, this is also good, Lao Huang's sudden phone rang to save Tian Donkey's predicament, taking advantage of Lao Huang's turn to answer the phone, Tian Donkey quickly took out the old shoes from under the bed at the right time, felt out a wad of money on his body, and then pretended to inadvertently kick the old shoes back under the bed, and then looked back at Lao Huang, Lao Huang was holding his mobile phone and whispering the phone not far away, although Tian Donkey couldn't hear what he was talking about, but this also allowed Tian Donkey to count the money boldly and confidently, He quickly counted eight pieces of 100 yuan yuan, put them in his left pocket, and then stuffed the remaining ones back into his right pocket, still snickering in his heart, his own way of touching money is really fast and accurate, and he found out a thousand yuan at once, no more and no less, even if Lao Huang saw him counting the money, he would not let him see his bottom line, and it would not be embarrassing to borrow more and borrow less.
Lao Huang finished the phone call and returned to Tian Donkey, who hurriedly handed the 800 yuan to Lao Huang, Lao Huang looked at the red 100 yuan bill, like an addict seeing drugs, his eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed.
"Thank you, thank you, although I don't thank you for my kindness, but my brother lent me money, just to look up to me, I'm really grateful" Saying that, Lao Huang took the money and put it in his pocket.
"Brother Huang, you count, one hundred and eight, count to see if it's appropriate"
"Don't count! We can trust my brother's character, and it's not much money, don't count it, I can trust my brother, and I have to let my brother trust me, so let's do it, brother, you find a piece of paper and a pen, and I'll write you an IOU."
"Forget it, Brother Huang, as you said, it's not much money, so you don't have to write an IOU, it's very troublesome."
"Nonsense! What's the trouble with this? I said, to make my brother trust me, and I must write an IOU to borrow money, and when the time comes, if I cheat, my brother can still hold me legally responsible, or if I don't pay it back, my brother will take the IOU and let my wife and children pay you back! ”
Lao Huang's words were sincere and swearing, but it made Tian Donkey a little embarrassed, he borrowed money to Lao Huang, why Lao Huang was still arrogant to instruct himself while he was looking like he was at a loss, this is really something that Tian Donkey can't figure out.
"Looking at what Brother Huang said, I know that Brother Huang is not that kind of person, but ...... I don't have a pen or paper to write an IOU, and I've never written an IOU, so I don't know how to write it."
"Ahaha, why did I do it at the time, it turned out to be because of this reason, I said earlier, brother, with me, I can write, I have learned a few words in my life, it seems that it is just to write IOUs! If you don't have a pen and paper, you can borrow one, and the boss must have it."
"Boss Cheng, didn't you just say that you weren't in the office?"
"Oh, yes, he's not" Saying, Lao Huang approached Tian Donkey again, and asked mysteriously, "Brother, you see that we are not outsiders now, you just tell me the truth, so that I can also have a bottom in my heart, this Cheng Boss you have a lot of contact, you should know his details, he ...... Let's put it this way, do you think he will run away? Does he have any money to pay us a salary? If you don't have money, we should sue him, and if you have money, when will it be sent to us? Now that the Chinese New Year is coming, I have no money in my hand, and Boss Cheng doesn't say a word, so I have to make people want to be crooked."
"Brother Huang, this ...... I really don't know, although you see me living in Boss Cheng's warehouse, but I have neither relatives nor reasons with Boss Cheng, and I am actually in the same situation as the big guy, I really don't know, Boss Cheng has never said anything superfluous to me, but I believe that Boss Cheng is not the kind of person who will run away."
"Hey, it's not for sure, no one can be relied on these years, but, since Brother Tian trusts Boss Cheng so much, it seems that I think too much, okay, this topic, just think I haven't said it, or say our IOU, it's okay, it's okay if Boss Cheng is not there, there is also a way, there is also a way to borrow a pen in the commissary on the right street outside our factory, if I borrow it, people may not lend it to me, I haven't given money for the cigarettes on credit at his house two days ago, you go and borrow it, I'll wait here, Borrowed good to write you an IOU."
"Really? Brother Huang, in fact, I really think it's okay to write or not."
"No, you have to write, you don't want to borrow your money, I can't borrow it, when the time comes, what will you do if you slander me? I obviously borrowed 800, and you said it was 8000, so it didn't hurt me! ”
"Eh, I'm not that kind of person, Brother Huang, where are you talking about this?"
"Hey, I just said casually, you haven't borrowed money I don't know, I have a deep experience, this experience of borrowing money, there are many ways, let's write in black and white, set up a note, it's good for anyone"
"Okay, then since Brother Huang wants to write, then I'll borrow it."
As he spoke, Tian Donkey got up and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the warehouse.
