Chapter 946: Something Went Wrong
"Bu Ju Buju, lighter..."Zhao Er waved his hand again and again, guiding several workers to slowly pour the concrete in the wooden basin into the foundation pit.
I saw the concrete slurry flowing slowly, gradually seeping into the gaps in the pipeline.
At each pour, the superintendent will step forward and personally measure the flatness with a special tool.
And reach out and poke from time to time to check the degree of porosity.
"That's it, next paragraph!" The warden finally reluctantly satisfied with a certain area, and then directed the workers to move on.
As the minutes passed, the pouring work proceeded slowly and steadily.
Once upon a time, the pit that had been dry was filled with more than half of it, turning it into a gray concrete pond.
The pouring work continued for several more hours, until in the evening, when the workers finally withdrew from the foundation pit one after another, and the last section of the foundation was completed.
"Are the reinforcement sections and rebar in place?" The warden furrowed his brow and looked around with a serious face, scrutinizing every detail.
"Please rest assured, everything is ready." Zhao Er replied respectfully.
"Good." The Overseer nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings with a stern look.
As the sun sets, the atmosphere on the construction site is extremely hot.
"Faster! Pay attention to evenness, don't miss a corner! The warden swung his whip and slammed the ground from time to time, roaring and shouting commands.
The workers were exhausted, sweat soaking through their thin shirts.
But under the forced gaze of the supervisor, no one dared to slack off.
The sound of footsteps "clicking" came and went on the construction site, accompanied by the sound of "bang, bang, bang" cement pouring.
Li Changji and Zhao Er kept a close eye on the workers' every move, reminding them from time to time.
They know that this last step is crucial, and that they must do their best to tighten the last string.
"Wait! It's not even over there! ”
Zhao Er suddenly pointed to a corner and scolded loudly.
I saw that the workers were in a hurry, holding tools to smooth the bulge.
"Master, I'm just..."
"Humph!" Li Changji snorted coldly, snatched the tool, and under the stunned gaze of the workers, he flattened the bulge with his own hands.
"So, this angle, this force, understand?" While doing demonstrations, he patiently taught the construction skills to the workers without reservation.
The worker nodded, gratefully.
In this way, with the efforts of everyone, the first concrete foundation pouring project was finally completed, and a white "cement pool" was finally erected on the construction site.
Li Changji and Zhao Er breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped away the beads of sweat on their foreheads.
Turning their heads to look at the low "cement pool", their eyes were full of relief and pride.
"Well done!" The supervisor finally raised the corners of his mouth and said: "The first foundation of this industrial zone has been laid like this!" ”
The workers also cheered, and you and I admired each other's efforts.
In this way, in the laughter, the first rays of dawn have poured down through the layers of clouds, plating the world with a dazzling gold edge.
"Alright, let's all go down and rest. Once the foundation has set, I will take a closer look. The warden cleared his throat and announced loudly in a bell-like voice.
Finally able to rest, the workers left the site and swarmed in the direction of the temporary houses in the camp.
Li Changji wanted to stay and see the form, but he was dragged away by Zhao Er.
Today, the two brothers are tired. Let's rest, and we'll talk about it tomorrow when it's dawn. ”
Although Li Changji was a little unwilling, he saw that Zhao Er had already seen gold stars in his eyes, so he had to nod in agreement.
As soon as the sun peeked over the horizon, the construction site was already bustling.
The superintendent and a few cronies were in charge of the temporary overseer, and repeatedly inspected the nooks and crannies of the "cement foundation".
Li Changji and Zhao Er also arrived early, and they were refreshed, obviously getting a good rest.
"Huh?! This... What's going on? ”
Suddenly, the warden let out a startled shout.
Everyone followed the voice, only to see that he was staring wide-eyed, pointing, and muttering something in his mouth.
Li Changji and Zhao Er looked at each other, and they didn't know why, so they had to step forward step by step.
"Here, here, which bastard is this? What kind of bird foundation is this? ”
The supervisor became more and more angry, and finally thundered and slammed the report in his hand to the ground.
Zhao Er looked at it and gasped.
I saw that a certain corner of the foundation actually cracked, revealing hideous openings.
"How... How can it be? We were working hard yesterday, huh? Zhao Er scratched his head, looking suspicious.
"You bastards. Which one saved effort yesterday? The supervisor fiercely glanced at Li Changji, Zhao Er, and many craftsmen, and spat Xingzi and said: "It's a great thing that ruined Lao Tzu!" ”
"What?!" Li Changji and Zhao Er didn't know what caused it, and they were speechless for a while.
Yesterday, everyone went all out, and they didn't cut corners, why did there still be such a fork?
But overnight, the plump and solid cement pool will crack on its own? It's simply unbelievable.
Seeing the inexplicable look on the faces of the two, the supervisor was even more furious and said, "You guys hurry up and give me a reasonable explanation!" Otherwise..."
He shouted these four words in a low voice, very hideous, as if to indicate something.
"Uh..." Zhao Er was so frightened that the soles of his feet went weak, and his whole body trembled.
Fortunately, Li Changji calmed down first, and hurriedly said, "The supervisor is angry. This is the first time we have encountered such a situation. Please give us some time, and we'll find out why. ”
Li Changji said in a sincere tone, and said earnestly: "It takes so much effort to build a foundation. Now that we've come to this point, we're not going to give up so easily. ”
The overseer snorted, barely suppressed his anger and said, "Okay! You'd better find out for me, don't let me worry about it in vain. ”
Li Changji and Zhao Er nodded again and again.
Seeing the back of the prison officer shrouded in anger gradually drifting away, Zhao Er finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the ground, patted his chest tremblingly, and said, "Let... What are we going to do? ”
Li Changji also sighed heavily, glanced at the concrete floor full of cracks, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Of course, he understands that this time the fork is related to the future of the entire industrial area.
"Let's not worry." After a long time, Li Changji finally spoke, and said in a firm tone: "I went through the construction process from beginning to end, and repeatedly found the root cause of the problem. If you think about it, you'll find the answer. ”
