Chapter 15: The Death of the Serpent (Part II)

I look at this young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his face is still immature, not like a fierce person, and I guess he is right, he must have been forced by the boss to do this on impulse.

I was a little indignant, so I forgot for a moment that I was not actually the leader here, and as I usually do in the company, my eyes swept over everyone sternly and said, "Who is the boss of the excavator construction team?" ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, a middle-aged man wearing a red hard hat and a big shirt answered: "I am, what's wrong?" ”

I couldn't help but glance at this person, he was different from the childish excavator driver, his eyes were old and deep, and he looked like the kind of person who had been in the society for a long time and had seen various occasions, although I claimed to be a leader, but after all, I was only in my twenties, and it was estimated that he had guessed my identity, so his attitude towards me seemed lukewarm.

But when it came to this, it was impossible for me to retreat, so I also played deep, and said lightly: "How can you be like this, since this snake was not dead at that time, can't you just drive it away, why do you have to kill it all, and use such cruel means, I remember, this python should also belong to the national first-class protected wild animals?" ”

As soon as the middle-aged man heard this, his face immediately showed anger, but he quickly pressed back, but the tone of his voice was very blunt: "Mr. Zhou, my name is Pan Daqi, I grew up near this Lubo Beach, I won't tell you, from childhood to adulthood, I have seen snakes, and even eaten snakes, there are too many, I have never heard of them, snakes are also some kind of national protected animals, besides, such a big python, who can guarantee that it will be frightened and will not hurt people everywhere, I am also for the people." ”

What Pan Daqi said was straightforward and seemed to be very reasonable, but I knew that he was quibbling, so I continued to reason with him: "This kind of big python is generally in pairs, and there will even be other similar people nearby, if you kill this, they will definitely come to take revenge, maybe it will cause many people to be attacked, what should you do then?" ”

Hearing me say this, an elderly worker next to him echoed: "Yes, Mr. Pan, according to the legend of our Lubotan, these big black snakes are all sacred objects, they want revenge, there will be many ways, I'm afraid that when the time comes, we will all have to be retributed." ”

Pan Daqi was still a little disapproving, and even looked vicious: "What strange things to say, I, Pan Daqi, have been in black and white for many years, I have seen too many dead people, and I am afraid of a dead snake, if its accomplices want to take revenge, if they come, I will kill one if they dare to come, and I will kill one if they dare to come." ”

What Pan Daqi said is exactly the same as what Zhao Xiaoyi just said, but I don't think he is also bragging, and I also judge that there is no need to theorize between me and him.

The point is, I am not his real leader, he will never listen to me, and it is enough to save face if I don't turn my face with me in public.

Thinking of this, I had no choice but to suggest to Feng Tao: "Feng Gong, the matter has come to this, I think it is better to find a clean place and bury this big snake, right?" ”

Feng Tao nodded: "I think so too, otherwise it's not a matter to spend it here all the time, then Mr. Pan, you just find a vacant land outside the airport, dig a pit with an excavator, and bury it, right?" ”

Although Feng Tao is not a big leader, after all, he is a member of the management committee of the development zone, so he is naturally more effective than me.

Pan Daqi smiled with a smile on his face, and happily agreed: "Feng Gong, you don't have to worry about this, I promise to get this big snake out of here and clean up all the blood-stained soil around it." ”

Feng Tao nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, everything will be handled by Mr. Pan, don't keep watching, what should you do, hurry up, so as not to delay the construction period." ”

At this moment, I deeply feel that the leadership of this thing is like a gust of wind, when it blows, people still take you seriously, and it will be treated as air immediately after blowing, not to mention that my air is seriously insufficient in oxygen, and can only be regarded as exhaust gas.

However, I have always thought about it, and I didn't take it too seriously, and even suddenly thought that maybe I was making a fuss about myself, after all, it was just a dead snake, not a dead person.

Besides, the main purpose of Zhao Xiaoyi and I coming here is to talk about work, but we can't delay the business, so I turned to Feng Tao and asked, "Feng Gong, is Director Long here today?" ”

Feng Tao smiled: "I've been here recently, and I just said to you, let's hurry over, right?" ”

So, the three of us left the site and went to the office building to find Long Xiaohui, the director of the project department, who was the direct person in charge of our company's project, and most of the matters needed to be discussed and resolved with him.

When he arrived at Long Xiaohui's office, he greeted him from afar, shook hands with me and Zhao Xiaoyi in turn, and joked: "It's better for you business units, female secretaries are so beautiful, no wonder Mr. Zhou has been here for two days before he remembered to come to me." ”

Before I came, I had a phone call with Long Xiaohui, and he knew my itinerary, so he was a little embarrassed and said: "I'm sorry, Long, I did come the afternoon before yesterday, but something happened on the construction site yesterday, and suddenly there was a heavy fog, and I couldn't see anything, so I couldn't come." ”

Long Xiaohui looked surprised: "Did there fog in Lubo Beach yesterday?" I've been wandering outside, how don't I know? ”

I was even more surprised, and I couldn't help but ask, "Didn't there be fog in the beach yesterday?" ”

After asking, I understood that Long Xiaohui shouldn't be lying, it seems that this foggy thing is also a bit weird, but I can't explain this matter, I can't tell him all the things that happened between me and Zhao Xiaoyi, right?

Fortunately, Long Xiaohui is also a smart and open-minded person, seeing that I was a little embarrassed, he smiled and said: "The so-called seeing flowers in the fog, looking at the moon in the water, and the weather, none of us can grasp it, so let's talk about what we can grasp, right?" It just so happens that the personnel of all departments are here today, Mr. Zhou, if you have anything that we need to coordinate and deal with, just say it, our management committee will definitely provide the most enthusiastic and satisfactory service for you, the new enterprises. ”

Next, we began to talk about work, during which Long Xiaohui also convened some department personnel to have a meeting, and everyone got to know each other.

In this way, I was busy until noon, I said that the leaders had worked hard, and invited everyone to go to a nearby town for a light meal, but they said they didn't dare, and invited me to eat their canteen in turn, and I said that our company had also opened a stove, so I quit.

When Zhao Xiaoyi and I drove back, we arrived at the gate of the airport, but we were blocked, because Lao Cai, who was the gatekeeper, was not there, and the electric door naturally couldn't be opened.

After waiting for five or six minutes, I saw Lao Cai hurrying over with a latex paint bucket in his hand, and I saw half a bucket of red liquid in it, so I asked, "Uncle Cai, what are you mentioning?" Doesn't it look like paint? ”

Lao Cai looked left and right, lowered his voice and said: "It's not paint, it's snake blood, I heard that drinking it can prolong life and cure all diseases, so I took half a bucket." ”

I was a little surprised: "Why did you pick up the snake blood again, that Mr. Pan, didn't pull the snake to bury it?" ”

Lao Cai continued to lower his voice and said: "What to bury, he has already called a dirt truck to be pulled to the county seat to sell, I heard that a big snake like this can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan?" ”

I suddenly became a little angry, and I began to dislike that Mr. Pan, it turned out that this guy killed the snake because of this crooked brain.

However, I also know that I am soft-spoken, and I am a newcomer, so I can't stop him, but because I feel that Lao Cai is not bad, I said one more sentence: "Uncle Cai, how can this snake blood be so magical, I see, in order to avoid getting into trouble, you better find a place to pour it out and bury it, right?" ”

Lao Cai didn't answer me immediately, but went to the gatehouse, carefully hid the bucket of snake blood in a corner, and then took the remote control out, and answered a little perfunctorily while opening the door: "It's okay, Mr. Zhou, I'm careful, in addition, don't tell our leaders about this matter." ”
