Two days later, a circle of more than two meters high courtyard wall was erected from the ground, and a small half of the canopy was built with broken tarpaulin and scaffolding. When the scalper settled the wages of the displaced people and closed the courtyard door, Hong Tao had another job, and he actually pointed to the ground under the canopy and took the lead in picking up the pickaxe.

"Brother Mouse, it's all construction waste down here, and digging the basement is easy to collapse." The scalper probably guessed what the boss was going to do, digging a hole and hiding something. It's really human, as the name suggests, rats can burrow, or shoot wherever they go.

"Don't talk nonsense, dig up if you want furniture! If you want to go to the red zone to pan for gold, you should also dig it quickly. Whoever doesn't dig up is not allowed to go, and no furniture is allowed! Hong Tao didn't listen to persuasion at all, and the pickaxe became more and more energetic.

“…… Take the tools, look at what, Brother Rat said that he can dig it must be right, let's go together! Hu Yang blinked, and he couldn't figure out what the hell this person was doing. But as soon as I heard that there was a way to go to the red zone to continue panning for gold, I immediately didn't ask, let's do it!

"No, don't. Three people dug and three people went back to the building to rest. Pile all the dirt by the wall and don't throw it outside the ceiling! But Hong Tao had something to say, he divided the people into two groups, and he had to hide under the canopy to work, and he was not allowed to cross the line at all.

Although everyone didn't know what he was going to do, Yuro's myth made them blindly follow it again, and instead of continuing to discuss whether to dig or not, they did it in an orderly manner.

The progress of the project can be said to have not been smooth, as the scalper said, the soil here is very shallow, almost a foot below is full of construction waste. Most of the time shovels and pickaxes have lost their usefulness, and cement blocks of various sizes can only be pulled out with crowbars and hands.

"Brother Mouse, something is not right, there seems to be a wall down here, and the cement is quite high, and it is very difficult to chisel." This digging is for most of the day, and when the depth of the pit reaches less than a meter, the scalper is not calm. Originally, I thought it was a relatively large piece of cement, but after a few chisels with a steel drill, it was completely different.

"Hehehe...... That's right! Forget about the wall and keep digging from the south side of the wall! Hong Tao was really not lazy, he was competing with a large piece of cement and red bricks a few meters away, Hearing the scalper's complaints, he immediately came over to take a look, with a happy smile on his face.

"Bang bang...... Brother Tiger, Brother Tiger, I'm Heilong, the carriage you hired is here......" Without waiting for the scalper to ask again, there was a shout from outside the courtyard gate, and Lu Wei'an was back.

"Carriage? When did I hire a carriage! Hu Yang was sitting in the door of the building drinking tea and resting, when he heard someone calling him, although he got up, his steps were very slow, and he patted his head as he walked.

"Come on, I'll come ......" Hong Tao ran over in three steps and two steps and pulled the bolt of the door.

"Oh, big brother, do you still recognize me?" There was a carriage parked outside the door, and there were two people sitting in it. The black fat man was Lu Wei'an, and the old man with a thin face was the same driver who sent them from the North Railway Station that day.

"Oh...... I remember...... Are you all right? "The driver is old, but his eyes are very sharp, and he only found a matching picture from his memory after only a few seconds on Hong Tao's face.

"I have to thank you for that...... Come on, come on, drive the car in, sit down and have a sip of hot tea. ”

Hong Tao arched his hand at the chariot uncle, reached out and grabbed the reins of the horse, and without waiting for the horse's head to dodge, his other hand pressed the bridge of its nose and stroked it lightly. This gray old horse didn't wait for the old man's order, and followed Hong Tao to the courtyard.

"Have you found a job?" The driver didn't stop him, jumped out of the car and followed behind, looking around as he walked. Looking at a group of people digging a pit, it seems to understand something.

"Truth be told, we bought it. Seeing that it's going to be winter, I want to get my brother's septic tank. It's too expensive to hire someone, and the brothers have the strength to do it, so they can do it themselves if it's not too delicate. Come, you take your seats. ”

When the stupid pig came over, Hong Tao handed the reins to him, accompanied the chauffeur into the door, sat on the chaise longue of the poplar, and poured a cup of hot tea from the teapot.

"Good fellow, it's not cheap! It seems that I'm still out of sight, you are not ordinary homeless! The driver was not polite, took the tea and blew it, drank half of it in one gulp, and looked at Hong Tao again with more guarded eyes.

"What can you do if it's ordinary and unusual, it's not like you have to be busy all day long. If you don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, if it weren't for your mention that day, our brother might have been planted, at least not as comfortable as now. ”

"As the saying goes, when you receive a drop of water, you should repay it with a spring, and your water is given, but I really don't have a spring here, only some vulgar things. Don't be polite, and don't shirk it. ”

"Take it, even if you know each other in the future, whether it's a friend to see first. If you don't accept it, you will look down on us from the bottom of your heart. It doesn't matter, open the door, you go your Yangguan Road, and the two don't owe each other! Hong Tao pulled a bench and sat next to him, didn't even hand over the cigarette, and directly talked about today's theme.

As he spoke, he took out two things from his arms, held them in the palm of his hand and sent them to the old man. On one side is a few red tickets, and on the other side is a pistol with a black and blue glow, brand new!

"......" The old man didn't move, still holding the teacup in one hand, and turned his head to look at Lu Wei'an.

"He is now our man, and you can rest assured that there will be no trouble." Hong Tao grinned and sent his hand forward again.

"I shouldn't have talked too much in the first place, did I save people or hurt people, did evil......" The old man shook his head slightly, put down the teaglass, pushed away the two things sent to him with one hand, and leaned his body completely on the chaise longe.

"Now that you've heard about it, it's time to take it. I have something you can ask for help with, and now only you can really help. If this is done, there will be a lot of deaths here, and there will be a lot of virtue. Hong Tao didn't take back the money and gun, slapped it directly in the old man's hand, and then grabbed the old man's hand so that he couldn't let go.

"Whoa...... It's a good gun, and the firepower is so fierce! But no matter how many bullets there are, can there be more than the machine guns on the watchtower? Listen to my advice, and accept it when you see it. I'm just a car driver who doesn't have much ability, but I never hurt people, and I'm afraid I can't help it. ”

The old man stretched out his other hand to break Hong Tao's fingers, picked up the pistol and withdrew from the magazine to look at it, loaded it with a bang, pointed at Hong Tao in his arms, and didn't look at Hu Yang behind him and Lu Wei'an on the other side, his hand was very steady.

"Let's not subdivide the good guys and bad guys, and we can't tell the good from the bad in this year. If we hadn't been ruthless, I'd be lying under the soil and growing maggots now. If nothing else, those people won't let us live just by seeing these things. ”

"Don't be too wary, I'm not asking you to take risks, I'm just asking about the convoy. A few bigwigs here sat down with us a few days ago and chatted, and they agreed that they could do a transportation business, and they also promised to help find acquaintances to rent licenses. ”

"We haven't been here for a long time, and we don't know a lot about many things here, and we don't know the inside story of this industry, so we don't dare to invest money easily, so I think of you."

"Don't worry, I pack the ticket, no matter whether this business can be done or not, I will not be angry. How about it, brother, help our brother a few more times, a few words. ”

Looking at the old man's hand, Hong Tao knew that he had received military training, and he was a very strong person in his heart, maybe he had seen too much life and death. For this kind of person, the effect of forcing each other to death is limited, and he stretched out his hand to signal Populus euphratica not to draw a gun.

But this kind of person often cares more about the life and death of others, and it does not mean that he has reached the realm of self-sacrifice, but mainly because he is not willing to let innocent people be unlucky because of himself. Of course, as long as you don't make yourself too uncomfortable.

“…… I took the gun, please take the money back. Your name is ...... Chow Tai Fook ...... It's a kana, right? Hey, aside, name-free, it looks like you're really offending people here. Trunk transport fleet ...... Okay, I'll just tell you what I know, don't take it seriously, there are some things that I haven't seen with my own eyes, so I'll use them as a reference. ”

After a few seconds, the old man unloaded his pistol, closed the safety and carried it into his arms. He didn't see the palpitating composure in his eyes, but in his hands. It is difficult to say that a person does not change his face in the face of a loaded pistol at close range, and his heart does not beat.

But the guy wearing sunglasses in front of him, his eyes were flustered, he didn't see clearly, his hand was really steady, and he didn't move at all when he pressed his hand. Since it's not to let yourself help the abuse, it's just to inquire about something, and it's not a crime, so why bother really working hard for this.
