Chapter 306: Sacrifice (I)
() Because Xiaolian went back first, when Tang Long and Erli returned to the village, Tang Long's mother and Erli's family naturally knew. √∟,
"Dalong, you're back! By the way, how was it along the way? Is it fun to go to Beijing? Have you ever been bullied? From afar, Tang Long's mother greeted him, took Tang Long's hand and asked long and short questions.
Tang Long couldn't cry or laugh a little: "Mom! ~ Shangjing is not a tiger's den in Longtan, how can I be bullied! But when it comes to fun, there is really nothing interesting in that place, just a few scenic spots and some monuments to see, and the air is not as good as ours. ”
For this sentence, Erli on the side had a deep understanding, and Erli also said: "Aunt Zhang, Brother Tang is right, Shangjing is not as good as us in the countryside, and the air in that place is panicking." ”
"Really?" Tang's mother looked puzzled.
Tang Long secretly gave Erli a thumbs up in his heart, praising this guy for not having a hairy head to tell what happened in Beijing.
Afraid that his mother would still ask, Tang Long hurriedly went up and grabbed his mother's hand and said, "Okay, Mom, didn't you see that we haven't eaten all the way?" Hurry up and cook, I want to eat the dishes made by my mother! ”
"Look at my memory, I'm hungry, right? Come with me, I just cooked for a worker friend on the construction site, and I will be ready to eat soon! As soon as she heard that her son hadn't eaten yet, Tang's mother immediately became anxious.
"Mom, don't rush ......"
Tang Long looked at his mother who hurriedly went to prepare food for them, he was very helpless, and he wanted to ask why his mother was cooking on the construction site.
However, looking at it like this, Tang Long didn't say it in the end, so he could only take the two forces and they also walked towards the construction site.
As he walked, Tang Long glanced at Erli. Did you know if you said the wrong thing? ”
Erli obviously knew what Tang Long was talking about, and he nodded honestly, indicating that he knew.
Entering the construction site, Tang Long first glanced up at the villa that had been completed, and then turned his attention to the busy workers. Soon Master Zhang was found in the crowd.
"Master Zhang!" Tang Long shouted.
Master Zhang glanced back, and when he saw that it was Tang Long, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly walked over, laughing and said, "Dalong, you're finally back, I'm looking for you!" ”
"It's a matter of the final payment of the parking lot, right? Don't worry, I'll let Erli call you in the afternoon! Tang Long said.
"That's not in a hurry, it's another matter!" Master Zhang waved his hand. Signaling that he didn't mean to talk about it, he hurriedly took out a bag of Wen Jiàn from his briefcase and handed it to Tang Long, "Oh, that's it, take a look." ”
Not a matter of the final payment?
Tang Long took Wen Jiàn suspiciously and looked at it, and soon understood what was going on, he glanced at Master Zhang in surprise. "What's going on?" he asked. ”
This document is very simple, it is just a notice of bidding for highway maintenance issued by the county government. However, Tang Long didn't know what Master Zhang meant by showing him this thing.
Is it because you are not sure that you will take the project down and come to yourself for help?
But is it useful to find yourself?
Master Zhang touched his chin awkwardly and said with a wry smile: "That's what it means, don't you see I'm worried!" ”
After a slight pause, Master Zhang said again, "That's the case." Whether it's possible or not, my plan is to compete, after all, this kind of opportunity is very rare, but you ...... it."
Tang Long suddenly realized, it turned out to be like this!
Truly. This project is definitely an opportunity for Master Zhang, not only to win a project that does not worry about work for a year, but also to deal with the official, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
But the key point is Tang Long's side!
Master Zhang is worried about what project Tang Long has on his side!
After all, if he wins the bid, and Tang Long has another big move on his side, he won't be able to draw out manpower at that time, then it will be difficult for him to do both.
No matter what, Tang Longna can be regarded as his big customer, isn't it?
He always had to consider Tang Long's feelings.
Understanding this, Tang Long handed the information back to Master Zhang, and after a deep sigh, he nodded and said: "This is indeed a rare opportunity, since Master Zhang wants to compete, then compete for a while, as for me, you don't have to worry at all, anyway, the project will only start next year." ”
Tang Long is not careful, since people have a way out, he naturally will not be the roadblocker, and he also supports Master Zhang in this matter, anyway, the project on his side should be able to be won in recent years, and the two are not in conflict.
"Is that so? Then I'll give it a try! Seeing Tang Long say this, Master Zhang finally breathed a sigh of relief, this is undoubtedly the best result.
But just when Master Zhang was secretly relieved, Tang Long suddenly said again: "By the way, Master Zhang, I just have something to discuss with you here!" ”
Immediately after that, Tang Long said the words he had just said when he and Erli were on the road.
Half a ring, after listening to Tang Long's words, Master Zhang was silent for a moment, nodded and agreed directly: "This matter is completely fine, leave it to me!" ”
Speaking of this, Master Zhang also said to Tang Long with a smile, "Haha, I'm not afraid of Dalong's jokes, in fact, I have long had this idea, after all, Snake Nest Village is also the place where I was born and raised." It's a pity that I haven't had the ability to do so for a long time, so I can only put this matter on hold, but I didn't expect you to think of it first. ”
Master Zhang's words are true, he is also a person who went out of Snake Nest Village, how could he not know the situation in the village?
But what he said later was also true, although he also wanted to, but he really didn't have that ability.
Not to mention the question of whether he has money now, even if he does, it is just that he has accumulated some money by helping Tang Long do some projects during this time, he didn't have so much money before, and his life was tight.
Besides, don't underestimate this mountain road, although it doesn't seem to cost much, but if you really want to get it, it still needs a lot, especially the five ghost slopes and the sections of the road that need to use various machinery. This kind of machinery is not good for renting, and it is very troublesome to buy it now, and his little savings are really not enough!
Tang Long naturally understood this, but he still appreciated Master Zhang's personality very much, and he didn't expect this 'boss' who had already left the village. It's very rare to still think about the village all the time.
With a smile, Tang Long shook his head helplessly and said, "I didn't do anything, I just did what I could." By the way, in this case, Master Zhang, you should do your best to make a plan, but don't delay your project next year. ”
"Okay, I'll find someone to come and see it in the afternoon, and strive to come up with the plan within three days!" Master Zhang is not sloppy either. He also knew that the sooner this thing was, the better, so he nodded directly.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Long talked to Master Zhang about some of his thoughts on repairing the mountain road, such as the problem of the Five Ghost Slope and the secluded stream.
Of course, he only mentioned it at best, after all, people are professionals, and it depends on the specific situation to decide.
After chatting like this, soon Tang's mother over there began to shout for dinner, and for a while the workers put down their work one after another. Surrounded by.
Erli didn't eat either, originally he had already prepared a meal at home. Xiaolian came to call him, but this kid didn't go back to eat, but planned to mix a big pot of rice with Tang Long, which made Tang Long cry and laugh for a while.
However, I have to say that it feels very good for a large group of people to eat, especially with a group of simple migrant workers. While talking, laughing, chatting and eating, even if it is a big pot of rice, I still feel very appetizing.
Meal. Because the migrant workers have the habit of eating and washing their own dishes, there is nothing to do with Tang's mother, and Tang Long called his mother aside while the workers were taking a break at lunch.
"Mom, why are you here to cook? Didn't they hire someone who specializes in cooking? ”
Tang Long is still worried about this matter, not that he thinks there is anything wrong with his mother cooking for the workers, he doesn't want his mother to be tired, after all, his parents have been worried about their children all their lives, and when the children are capable, how can they still let their parents be affected?
"It's not in the way, it's only two days, and the people who cook on the construction site can't come for these two days! Besides, your mother is not old yet, what does it look like to stay in the mountains all day? Idle in a panic! ”
Tang's mother naturally knew that Tang Long was relating to herself, and while her heart was warm, she waved her hand with a smile and signaled that it was okay.
Seeing that his mother said this, Tang Long didn't say anything more, after all, he was just helping, and there was nothing wrong with it.
However, Tang Long didn't care about this matter, but there was another thing he had to think about carefully.
Indeed, now that he has the ability, the second elder can enjoy the blessings.
However, doesn't he know the character of the second elder?
It's not a master who can be idle at all!
It was also this time that Tang's mother's words reminded him, it seems that he is going to find something for the second elder to do, preferably the kind of work that can not make the second elder feel bored, but also keep the second elder from getting tired......
However, Tang Long couldn't think of something suitable for the time being, so he could only write it down in his heart and think slowly about it in the past few days.
Shaking his head, Tang Long looked at his mother and asked curiously, "That's right!" Mother! Where's Dad? Is it in the mountains? ”
After coming back, Tang Long hadn't seen his father yet, and Tang Long was a little curious.
"You said your dad! I almost forgot about it. When Tang's mother heard Tang Long ask about Tang Kanghua, she didn't think much about it, and said with a sudden look, "That's the case, Boss Mei from the coal mine called your dad yesterday, so your dad went over early this morning!" ”
Colliery?
Tang Long frowned.
"What is Boss Mei asking my dad to do in the coal mine?" He asked his mother curiously.
Boss Mei, this person Tang Long knows, it seems that he is a person named Mei Liangxin, who started from scratch, and there are several celebrities under his hands who are rare celebrities in this area of Jinxian.
Of course, this person is not a 'conscienceless' person like his name, nor is he a black-hearted boss as said in various newspapers and television, on the contrary, when Tang Long's parents worked there at the beginning, this Boss Mei helped them a lot.
However, this is obviously not what Tang Long cares about at this time, what he cares about now is that his parents have not worked there for a long time, why is this Boss Mei still looking for them?
"What else can you do? It's not like you don't know your father's skills! Tang's mother rolled her eyes.
But then Tang's mother still said the matter, "I heard your dad say, it seems that something collapsed, although there was no accident, but the next work is not easy to carry out, your dad is in the past to help find a way." ”
As soon as Tang's mother mentioned this, Tang Long immediately reacted, he really forgot his father's ability.
Speaking of Tang Kanghua's ability, even Tang Long has to admire, because of the perennial dealings with coal mines, Tang Kanghua has practiced the ability of 'seeking good fortune and avoiding evil', many times where it may be unsafe, he can almost know in advance, and he can find a way to deal with it.
This is also one of the reasons why Boss Mei takes such good care of them.
Well, in fact, these are mysterious, in the final analysis, it is just a relationship of 'becoming a doctor after a long illness', after all, I have done this kind of work all my life, I have encountered this kind of thing a lot, I have seen a lot, and I have seen and dealt with it a lot, so I will naturally understand it slowly.
After knowing what his father was doing, Tang Long was relieved, this kind of thing would not be dangerous, and he was not tired, he just went to come up with ideas, so he didn't take it to heart.
After chatting with his mother again, Tang Long left the villa that was still under construction and walked towards the entrance of the village alone.
However, Tang Long is not preparing to go back to the mountain, but is planning to go to the cemetery!
You know, one of the things in his package has been sitting on hold, and it's time to put this matter to a complete end!
However, when Tang Long came to the cemetery slowly, to his surprise, he actually found other people in the cemetery!
"It's the fourth master!"
With Tang Long's eyesight, even from a distance, Tang Long could still see at a glance who the person in the cemetery was, it was the fourth master of the Taoist class in the village!
However, what is the fourth master doing here?
Tang Long was a little puzzled, he looked at the location of the fourth master again, and thought for a moment, he seemed to remember that place should be a nameless tomb, right?
Nameless tombs, that is, the general name of the kind of tombs without monuments, there are many such graves in the village, some of which are no longer known to the origin, most of these tombs are very old graves, because of such and such reasons are gradually forgotten, and some are limited by family conditions, there is no way to erect a monument.
However, the nameless tomb where the fourth master stood, Tang Long knew something, it seemed to be the grave of a madman in the village before, because it was a lonely person, so there was no monument.
Shaking his head, he couldn't figure it out in his heart, Tang Long didn't bother to think about it, and quickened his pace and walked towards the fourth master.
Now that you've seen it, you have to say hello, don't you?
Maybe the fourth master was a little distracted, Tang Long walked behind the fourth master, and the fourth master hadn't noticed Tang Long's arrival yet, but Tang Long didn't think much about it, and walked directly to the fourth master and stood still.
"Fourth Master, why are you always here?" Tang Long greeted first.
However, as soon as this greeting was finished, Tang Long immediately realized that something was wrong, his eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly looked at the fourth master's cheek!
"Not good! ......" (To be continued...... )
