The streets of Hercynian are always so clean. The sycamore leaves, which were still covering the streets like low carbon last night, woke up the next day and were cleaned by sanitation workers; The glass of the more than ten storey buildings is as clear as a mirror, reflecting the rare sunlight into the dark corners of the street; Even on a rainy day, a light rain falls on the street, and it doesn't splash a single bit of dirt.

The city of Haixi took shape at the end of the Qing Dynasty. The guns of foreigners opened the country, capitalism also sprung up here, crackling and peeling off the bamboo shoots of feudal society, and the rapid development of the commodity economy rose steadily, and the concessions, foreign firms, and compradors ...... These are the novelties that make this seaside city burst into great power. For more than 100 years, Haixi has been the leader of China's economy, and has gradually become the fashion, charm and vitality of the East.

The name of the Haixi street is also particularly interesting. The ten main streets are interwoven into a number of "Tian" shapes, with streets in the east and west, and roads in the north and south. Since the beginning of the Republic of China, the names of the main streets and roads have been named after the era of the Qing Dynasty emperors. For example, Shunzhi East Street, Kangxi South Road, Yongzheng West Street, Qianlong North Road and so on. Only the alleys and alleys have followed the old place names, such as Guanyin Temple Lane and Caishen Temple Lane. It is said that every emperor of the Qing Dynasty went to Jiangnan Weifu for a private visit, and he must go to Haixi for a swim, and the "Son of Heaven" who liked thick ink also left a lot of pen and ink.

Of course, whether it is the emperor's year or the streets named after the temples of gods and Buddhas, they were all overturned more than ten years ago. It is only in recent years that these names have been reinstated.

The headquarters of the Haixi Branch of Huajian Third Bureau is located on Jiaqing South Road. All municipal projects in Xihai are undertaken by Huajian Third Bureau, and there are nearly 100 large and small construction sites. It can be said that this year's Haixi city construction has exceeded that of any other era in history.

The ancients said: "Ten fingers do not stick to the mud, and the scales live in the building." "Every project is blocked by a high fence. Jingle bicycles weave through wide, flat streets, but which will be the city's future landmark, or who will live in the new elevator building? The dashing city dwellers don't care. The hustle and bustle within the walls was nothing more than a group of rustic country people making noise.

As the sun sets over the horizon at the end of the city, the noise of the machine stops, and the tired workers can step out of the high walls to experience the novelty and charm of the city.

However, not many people can step out of the walls with this kind of feeling. The prodigal sons of the world and the south of the world finally found a place to live, and they did not want to get up and drag their scattered bodies out of the street to be attacked by the autumn wind.

Even though the temporary workers have not been paid for three months, they are still very satisfied. Especially when I was a casual worker, the smell of rice wafted from the canteen at the construction site. With the meal ticket at the beginning of the month, they can receive a full ration on the stove.

Of course, for people who eat a lot, ninety meal tickets a month is far from enough. These sweaty laborers can use up three meal tickets for one meal. What happens after use? Pay for it yourself!

But the workers have a solution. Because the meal ticket is not divided into morning, noon and evening, and the amount of Chinese food is significantly higher than that of morning and evening. Therefore, many workers will make two or three meals at noon, and in the evening, they use the pots they bring to make a fire on the construction site, and they can eat eight minutes when it is hot! Because the food in the canteen in the evening was unattended, this made a few regular workers in the canteen anxious, and the two fat chefs discussed it - and then only the same amount of food was served in the morning, noon and evening.

Now the workers ran out of ideas. If the conditions are slightly better, you can also open a small stove after work. But after a tiring day, who still has the strength to light a fire for Xiaozao! Besides, which one of the better conditions will work here as a temporary worker?

A few gamblers came up with a "great idea". Although there is no salary, the big guy has a meal ticket in his hand! Gamble, by luck - if you're lucky, you'll get two or three meals at every meal; If you're unlucky, you'll have to eat the last meal and not the next meal!

In general, Huajian's canteen is still relatively humane. First of all, in terms of taste, it basically takes into account the eating habits of the north and the south. Pasta and rice make a very clear distinction between northerners and southerners.

People with similar accents gathered around, carrying aluminum lunch boxes, squatted on the ruins of the construction site outside the canteen and chewed their tongues.

"Listen, those Henan people are playing with the mother-in-law of Haixi again! Do you think that this Hercynian mother-in-law is not at ease? "Tie Guan Li" came out of the stove slowly—because of his inconvenient legs, he was always the last to go to the stove to eat, but because he was the last, the fat cook smiled and said to the "little man": "Shorty Li, come the latest, come, the rest is yours!" Therefore, although there is only soup and water leftovers, the lunch box of "Tie Guan Li" is always the fullest.

"Hey, turtle son, I've got something going on today! There's still meat left! Come, give points to the brothers! "Wang Luzi" saw the meat scrap in Lao Li's box, and his eyes straightened.

"**** Immortal Banban! You eat meat and drink soup, and you have to rob Lao Tzu when you drink soup! Lao Li's voice was very loud, which caused several Anhui people to laugh, and he also learned to say, "**** immortal banban!" ”

"Brother Zhu, did you hear what Lao Li said just now?" "Wang Lu" grabbed a little minced meat and gave it to Fushun a little.

"**** Immortal Banban!" Brother Zhu finished the last bite of rice, threw the lunch box on the ground, and took out a pot of cigarette mats from the cigarette bag.

"Last!"

"Heixi's Mother-in-law......"

"That's right! Haixi's mother-in-law is very comfortable! When the old men squatted at the foot of the bridge, those female babies came and went, tall and white, and fragrant. It's more comfortable on a hot day, and many women wear short sleeves, and the bras can be seen......" "Wang Luzi" took a sip of soup, and his two little eyes turned round.

"Tie Guan Li" had just eaten two mouthfuls of food, and quickly took over: "There is also a big ditch for the mother-in-law of Haixi!" Wearing a pair of pants that is tight and tight, walking is still twisting and twisting, and I just want to touch a claw! ”

"Lao Tzu sees that you two are 'hugging the chicken mother and wanting to eat swan meat'! Touch? It's almost the same to touch each of your houses - the left hand touches the right hand, and each one leads each to each other! Brother Zhu took a puff of his cigarette.

"Wow! I still don't believe it, why not touch it? The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he patted his ass and stood up.

"You really want to touch it?" "Tie Guan Li" doesn't walk fast, but he eats very fast, and the lunch box has been ripped up to the sky with this bag of cigarettes.

"You two don't want to poke and poke! Turtle, caught in and sat up, Lao Tzu is not allowed to deliver food! Brother Zhu began to worry. These perennial wandering homeless people, even if they have married their mothers-in-law, they don't know which side to run to! In the days when the soup was low and watery, I still looked forward to a little meaty.

"Hammer! Maybe I'm still going to break the law? I'll tell you......" Lao Li made a "step forward" gesture to summon several fellow villagers, including Fushun, and whispered: "I heard that group of Henan people say that there is a massage shop behind the Guanyin Temple, as long as you spend money, the flowery mother-in-law will sleep with you after taking off her clothes!" ”

"Say a shovel! How much money do you have? "Brother Zhu's question hits the nail on the head.

"Brother Zhu, you are counting your fingers every day, what do you say Ha'er will be tomorrow!" "Iron Kidnapping Lee" is mysterious.

"It's hard. Brother Zhu, you calculate it in one day, and it's time to pay your salary tomorrow! ”

"You're going to prostitute your salary? After three months of hard work, you will become one as soon as you become popular? "Brother Zhu is still relatively calm.

"It's not that much money, it's only one or twenty yuan for the whole fire! They are all flower-like girls, and I heard them say that there are also yellow flower girls! To go or not to go? Lao Li pushed the "Wang madman" with his elbow.

"Isn't it illegal?" Lao Wang flinched a little!

"It's a bad law, it's blatant on the street, and a lot of officials are going to play! Now is not the time to engage in reform and opening up! It's called 'openness'! It seems that this "Tie Guan Li" who has traveled from south to north knows a lot of fame.

"Do you know the way? Let's go find out the way first! Hearing that "many" officials had gone, Lao Wang strengthened his belief.

"Fushun, help us wash the lunch box!" The two of them said they would leave, and threw the lunch box to Fu Shun, whose face was red to the root of his ears.

Brother Zhu shook the ash of the pipe to the ground and looked at Fushun: "Fushun, don't learn from them, these turtle sons are used to it!" ”

"Well, Brother Zhu, you ......"

"I can't go, they're young, I'm old, I don't have them to be angry! Hahaha......" Brother Zhu said as he helped Fushun take a lunch box and went to the faucet!

At noon the next day, the project manager appeared on the construction site with finance. In fact, many people are looking forward to this day, and some people are afraid of this day. Because according to the recruitment agreement at the time, these three months were only a probationary period. During the probationary period, the salary was halved, and the big workers could receive 18 yuan and 5 yuan a month, and the small workers only received 15 yuan and 5.

The project manager will also announce today a list of some of the people who are not qualified during the probationary period, and it is said that one in ten people are not qualified. This means that in the project department of the "Financial Building", there will be more than a dozen people who will roll up and leave in the afternoon.

The project manager held a filter cigarette in his mouth, and the white face under the helmet was filled with an unfathomable smirk. After his paycheck, he pulled out a list from his trouser pocket -- he was going to announce in front of everyone who was going to lose their jobs.

Fu Shun and the three eldest brothers pricked up their ears. In fact, he knew that the three eldest brothers would stay no matter what, because there was a shortage of skilled workers on the construction site. They are worried that Fushun is coming, this unliterate "Han boy", although he has read a belly of books, but when he is working, he is always distracted, sometimes looking at the sky and smirking, sometimes looking at the sea in a daze, and a few times he also provoked the "construction worker" in charge to roar.

“…… Li Wenzhi, Luo Xuegang, Wang Wen, and Zhao Haibo ...... "Some of the people whose names were called by the project manager walked to the shed with frustrated faces, some dropped their helmets angrily, and some scolded and left angrily with incomprehensible swear words.

Those who did not name also raised their hearts to their throats, some closed their eyes tightly, some folded their hands in prayer, and some cowards covered their ears with their hands to prevent the terrible "bad news" from coming.

“…… The last ......" the manager paused deliberately and looked around with satisfaction, as if expecting a project to be completed...... Liu Fushun ......"
