The puppy, hiding in the shade of the tree, stuck out its tongue and gasped for breath, and the birds, which usually flew high in the sky, also stopped on the branches, unwilling to fly.

The grass was listlessly sunburned, and it bent down lazily, and the flowers were so sunburned that they hid their pretty little faces.

I love the autumn weather, autumn is a cool season, it's not as hot as summer and not as cold as winter.

Autumn doesn't rain as much as summer, once every two or three days, but it doesn't rain almost non-existently like in winter. Autumn rain has a special feature: when it rains, the weather gets cooler.

Because my job is special, there is nothing to do when it rains, but the sun is like fire, and the earth is like a steamer, so hot that people can't breathe.

Today, the weather was overcast, and the sky was full of thick, low, grayish-yellow cloudy clouds. The cold wind flew in the air like a sharp sword, making a sharp cry.

A shabby teenager just walked out of the construction site, although his shirt was soaked, he didn't forget to smile and greet the workers passing by, the rumbling machine had covered the entire construction site, and he couldn't hear what they were saying, just replied to the exchange with a few exaggerated movements, or shouted a few words, as if he was arguing, he was used to this kind of life.

When it was time for lunch, the workers lined up in an orderly manner to receive the boxed lunches and ate with laughter, in fact, in their eyes, happiness was very simple, and the whole picture did not look so unbearable.

As usual, he also walked to a corner with a boxed lunch and was about to sit down, and the slight vibration made him realize that there was a call on his mobile phone, and the machine at the construction site was too loud, maybe in such a noisy environment, only the vibration could make people notice.

He held a boxed lunch with one hand, held chopsticks in one hand and put it to his mouth, and then took out his mobile phone from his pocket and was about to answer it, when the other party hung up, he looked at his mobile phone and realized that there had been more than a dozen missed calls, and the familiar and remembered numbers let him know that they were all home numbers.

He gradually put down his mobile phone, as if he didn't want to call, just looked at the bell tower next door... It was as if his surroundings had suddenly become quiet, no, maybe it was just his inner world, and the rumbling sound of machines and the laughter of his co-workers still roamed around.

"Xiaodong, why haven't you finished eating yet. ”

A familiar voice and footsteps came from everywhere, but Chen Xiaodong didn't notice this, his eyes kept looking at the bell tower in the distance, until the other party patted him on the shoulder, which made him react, and he almost lost the lunch box in his hand in a panic.

"What are you looking at, so fascinated?"

A slightly chubby middle-aged man also looked at Chen Xiaodong's gaze.

"It's nothing, boss, what's wrong with me?" Chen Xiaodong turned around and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

It turned out that this slightly chubby middle-aged man was a contractor named Wang Dayong, Wang Dayong didn't respond anything, just turned around, looked at Chen Xiaodong seriously with eyes like torches, and made Xiaodong follow his gaze with a blank face.

However, Wang Dayong's originally serious face suddenly changed, and he just smiled and patted Chen Xiaodong's shoulder and said: "It's nothing, you don't have to go to work in the afternoon, come to my office after dinner, I have other things to arrange for you in the afternoon, and I'll talk to you in detail in the office later." ”

Chen Xiaodong's family is poor, his hometown is in a remote mountain village, because his family is poor, he abandoned school before finishing high school and secretly followed the people in the village, and the family has always wanted him to continue to study or learn some technology from relatives to have a better future, and he can get out of this mountain. But Chen Xiaodong has been accustomed to seeing these relatives who hate the poor and love the rich since he was a child, and he doesn't want his parents to work hard for low tuition fees, he wants to create a world on his own.

Chen Xiaodong took a few gulps and threw away the lunch box, thinking that this was his first job, he cherished it very much, for fear of doing something wrong, so he hurriedly walked to the office.

When he arrived at the door, he subconsciously tidied up the corners of his shirt and belt, "Boss, what are you looking for me?" Chen Xiaodong shouted at the door with a calm expression!

"Oh, Xiaodong is here, come in. Chen Xiaodong had never been to the boss's office before, this was his first time coming, he remembered that a few days ago a few workers were called to the office, only to know that they were fired after coming out, with an uneasy mood gently pushed open the door, I didn't expect the boss's office to be so big, there is a glass table and a large sofa next to it, there are a few desks and a few computers on the right, and there are a few vases next to it, The tender green evergreen in the vase is full of vitality and looks very magnificent.

"Sit, sit casually. ”

Wang Dayong didn't look at him but said to the computer, and from time to time he picked up the file and looked at it.

"Oh, okay, I don't know what you're looking for me?"

Xiao Dong walked to the glass table on the left and sat down very unnaturally, Wang Dayong ignored him, continued to look at the documents and the computer screen, looking very serious, he had prepared for the worst, it was a big deal to find a job again, but he didn't want to send someone under the fence and take someone else's boat to go ashore, thinking that he would come out and find a way out. . .

"Would you like to drink some water, there is a water dispenser next to it. ”

Wang Dayong walked over with the document in his hand, and immediately broke the silence of this moment.

"Thank you owner, I, not thirsty. Xiao Dong hurriedly stood up.

"Oh, sit, sit, sit, don't be nervous, I'm looking for you for a little thing that I want you to help with. Wang Dayong put the document on the glass table, took a water cup, walked to the water dispenser, and poured a glass of water.

"Come and have a glass of water, drink more water on this hot and humid day. Xiao Dong was flattered and took a sip of the water cup, he didn't expect that this barrel of pure water was still a little sweet, but he didn't forget to say "thank you".

Wang Dayong didn't sit down, but walked outside the door, looked around a few times, closed the door, and also locked it, and pulled down the curtains around it, making people look very weird, and the atmosphere suddenly became very tense, Xiao Dong suddenly had a feeling of fear and creepy.

"Boss, what's so hidden?"

Suppressing the cowardice in his heart, Chen Xiaodong finally opened his mouth, but Wang Dayong just glanced at Chen Xiaodong and didn't respond to anything, then took out a small wooden box from the desk drawer and brought it to Chen Xiaodong, "Just send this thing to the address and person of the document on the table, remember, it must be delivered to this person named Wu Changsheng by hand, you can't collect it on your behalf, the address on it is all there, you can see it yourself." ”

Chen Xiaodong took the wooden box in his hand, looked at the strange patterns on it and felt that it was very ordinary, so he picked up the documents on the table and looked at them carefully, "Yunnan, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain?

Wang Dayong looked at the document in Xiao Dong's hand and did not speak, but took out a bag from the drawer, walked to Xiao Dong and opened the zipper, which was full of money and a card, Wang Dayong took out the money and cards inside and put them on the table.

"If you can send a courier, do you think I will still find you over, there are 80,000 cash here, and as for this card, when you send it to Wu Changsheng, it will naturally give you the password, it must be more than here now." ”

Chen Xiaodong was stunned at this moment, he had never seen so much money since he was a child, and his heart was inevitable, who doesn't like money, especially children from poor families, but Xiaodong is not a person with developed limbs and a simple mind, giving so much money just to send a box?

It must not be simple, but Xiao Dong just picked up the box and looked at it, the small wooden box that was so small that it could only hold a ring really couldn't see anything special, even if it was a little bit of drugs, it was not even cost-effective to pay for it, curiosity made Xiao Dong want to know what kind of box this was, what kind of items could be contained in it, and what was the reason why the boss could spend so much money just to send a small wooden box?

"Boss, you're not kidding, are you! 80,000 yuan is just for this little wooden box? Not to mention that this wooden box is not as big as the palm of my hand. ”

Chen Xiaodong's hard smile looked very unnatural, but he still stared at Wang Dayong with both eyes, he just wanted to know what was inside this wooden box, if he broke the law, he would definitely not do it, even if no matter how much money seemed particularly humble in front of this legal society, Xiaodong didn't dare to take such a big risk, after all, he was still the only seedling in the family, and he didn't marry a wife and start a family, and he went to prison before he experienced it, which will be unable to raise his head for the rest of his life, although Chen Xiaodong is very eager to succeed, but this is not the direction that Chen Xiaodong wants to pursue.

"I know what you're worried about, let's try to see you with a dagger, the so-called wealth and wealth are in danger, if you don't do something, the sky will not drop money for you, or because this box is designated by the big boss above me to send it, I don't think you have such a chance at all." ”

Wang Dayong lit a cigarette and said to Xiao Dong very bluntly, making Xiao Dong feel that things are getting more and more complicated, besides, he is still a small person, and his use value is really limited, how can the big boss above the boss know that he is not so famous.

"The big boss wants me to go? Isn't this just a very ordinary thing, isn't it just someone who can do it for you, or isn't it the same to send a courier in the past, could it be this wooden box... What's the secret?"

Chen Xiaodong was dull in the last sentence, guessing that there must be something hidden behind this matter, it is not as simple as sending a box, otherwise he will not find me, and at best he can only be a cannon fodder.

"I've made it very clear what you're going to do, everyone has their own mission and mission, and you don't need to know about the other areas involved. ”

Wang Dayong looked at Xiao Dong with an indifferent and serious expression and said, which made people feel even more deterrent.
