The man who came in was called Chi Dacong. He was from Anqiu, Wang Liu's hometown. He came to Suzhou a year later than him. Wang Liuting took care of his family at the beginning, and Wang Liuting and Old Man Wang helped build his family's shack.
This boy named Chi used to be the sixth brother of Wang. Who would have thought that he went out to do part-time work for a few months last autumn, and he was so proud when he came back. He didn't call him brother anymore, and he still taught him lessons every now and then. Wang Liu didn't like to talk to him anymore.
Seeing that this guy actually came to the door and made noise again, Wang Liu took a few sips from the porridge bowl and said vaguely: "I won't go."
"Why?" Chi Dacong said dumbfounded: "I've told you many times that you can always get enough to eat over there. Isn't it better than your whole family eating wild vegetable porridge every day, and everyone's face is as green as a vegetable leaf?"
"I won't go if I don't want to go. You don't understand, right?" Wang Liu said impatiently.
"Wang Liu, you have a big head, right?" Chi Dacong said with displeasure upon hearing this: "I saw that your family was really having a hard time, so I kept coming to your door to ask you to join us, making it seem like I'm trying to figure something out from you."
People in Shandong speak straightforwardly, and they don¡¯t even know if they offend anyone.
After speaking, he was so angry that he turned around and was about to leave, but Old Man Wang stopped him and said, "Da Cong, what are you talking about? Why am I so confused?"
"Ah?" Chi Dacong said in surprise: "Didn't Wang Liu tell you?"
"No, what did you say?" Old Man Wang looked at his son.
"I think what he said is out of tune." Wang Liu put down the bowl and said in a low voice, "There is no need to tell my family."
"Why don't I just tune out?" Chi Dacong became anxious upon hearing this, and now he couldn't leave for the sake of his own reputation. Then he sat on the edge of the earthen bed and spoke loudly to Old Man Wang, asking him to comment.
"Last autumn, wasn't it hard to find work in Suzhou? I heard that there was a lot of work in Kunshan when building embankments, so I wanted to go there and try my luck Didn't I ask my sister-in-law at that time if I wanted to bring my sister-in-law with me? go?"
"Your sixth brother won't let me go." Wang Liu's wife whispered.
Wang Liuxin said that¡¯s not nonsense. It seemed like that was when he started to hate this guy.
"Keep talking." Old Man Wang frowned, feeling strange.
"You would have been at a loss if you didn't go." Chi Dacongyou boasted unconsciously: "I went to the embankment and asked, and they accepted me on the spot. Before I started working, I took care of a good meal first. ¡ª¡ªIt¡¯s a full meal! I ate a big bowl of brown rice and it wasn¡¯t enough, so I got another big bowl!¡±
"Wow" Wang Jiang, the eldest son of Wang Qi and Wang Liu, exclaimed in disbelief.
¡°In addition to the rice tube, there is also a salted herring, the salty kind, which can be eaten!¡± Chi Dacong recalled with excitement. Apparently, the first meal he had just arrived in Kunshan left a deep impression on him.
"I want to eat herring." Wang Liu's youngest son Wang Qing shouted again. Now even his shy second sister secretly swallowed her saliva.
Only Wang Liuda said disdainfully: "Are you bragging? How expensive is this salt? Can my boss be willing to give each person a salted fish? And it's so salty?"
"Maybe it was because my boss was showing mercy that day." Wang Liu's wife whispered.
"Who are you looking at?!" Wang Liu's nose was so angry that he felt that the grass outside the house was green.
"Wang Liu, don't be dissatisfied. I worked in Kunshan until Nian Genxia. For three months, every meal was meaty. There was bacon even if there was no fish. Every few days, there was roasted chicken and stewed pork." Chi Da said. Cong patted his small chest and said, "I worked hard that day and gained several kilograms of meat."
"Listen, does this sound like human language" Wang Liucao smiled.
"I won't tell you!" Chi Dacong rolled his eyes at him and said to Old Man Wang: "Uncle, in addition to eating well, the wages there are also sufficient. I will send the pot of oil and the bag of rice to your family during the Chinese New Year. And the bag of salt, I carried it back from Kunshan."
As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Liudao proudly: "My family eats rice every meal, don't say you didn't see it."
"Shaobao." Wang Liu curled his lips. He had obviously seen it before.
"That was last year when they built the embankment. Can such a good thing happen this year?" Old Man Wang couldn't help but asked excitedly.
"This year is even better, uncle!" Chi Dacong spat: "After the embankment was built last year, many flooded lands in Kunshan can be planted with crops. But Kunkaisi has taken over the big projects of building seawalls in Shanghai and Chongming. , there is no one in the county to plant it. This gives us outsiders the opportunity to come to Kunshan to enjoy the blessings."
"Are they looking for people to farm in Kunshan?" Old Man Wang understood.
"Enemies! I still understand!" Chi Dacong gave a thumbs up and said: "Kunkaisi is now recruiting people to farm, and the whole family can go there together. If you go there, you will have a place to live."He also takes care of the family's meals. When the harvest is calculated at the end of the year, no matter how much we collect, the company and we will split it half and half! "
"Ah, so good?!" The Wang family all gasped upon hearing this. The temperature in the originally cold room seemed to have dropped by two degrees.
¡°In charge of the meal??¡± Wang Qi and his two nephews were excited.
"Of course, and the control is full!" Chi Dacong saw the atmosphere and knew that Wang Liu's reactionary stance was bound to fail. Then he boasted even more proudly:
"Kunkaisi you just think of yourself as the boss. You have completely different ideas from those landlords and wealthy people. They say that only when people are full can they have the strength to work. In order to save some food, people don't have enough to eat. It¡¯s not a good life, but it¡¯s not worth it.¡±
"This sentence makes it worth working for this boss as a cow or a horse!" Old Man Wang slapped the dining table and trembled excitedly: "The landlord, the old man, is afraid that the animals will lose fat, so he never gives the cows and horses a short bite. The work we do is better than that of the cows and horses. There¡¯s so much, but I¡¯m afraid we¡¯ll have one more bite¡¡±
"Yes, uncle, if I hadn't felt that my employer was benevolent and righteous, could I have come back and taken my whole family to join him?" Chi Dacong curled his lips and said, "If I hadn't felt that uncle and sixth brother were good to me, why would I have called you? Together?"
"Oh my good boy, don't be like your sixth brother. He is just a donkey. He only knows how to keep his head down but doesn't know how to look up at the road. He is still stubborn!" Old Man Wang helped his youngest son stand up and walked to Chi Dacong. , holding his hand as if afraid that he would run away.
As he spoke, he kicked Wang Liu in the buttocks and said, "Why don't you come and apologize?"
Wang Liu is a filial son. Although he was reluctant in every possible way, he still stood up, clasped his fists, tilted his head and muttered: "I'm sorry."
"It's okay, as long as Brother Liu doesn't always guard against thieves in the future, it's fine if you don't believe me." Chi Dacong forgave Wang Liu with a generous heart.
Old man Wang, however, was not done with his eldest son. He glared at him and said, "Why don't you say a word about such a good thing?"
"I'm afraid of quitting my job and going over there. If Da Cong hadn't blown it and said it so well, how would our family have survived?" Wang Liu whispered.
"Oh my god. If Kunkaisi doesn't keep its word, how can it take on so many big projects? Besides, you can't trust Kunkaisi, but you can always trust Jiangnan Group, right? The entire city of Suzhou relies on them, how could they deceive us? Ordinary people?" Chi Dacong said with an idiot look on his face.
"That's right, Kunshan is next to Fucheng. The Jiangnan Group has tricked people there, and it will soon spread to Suzhou. Then won't the whole city be in chaos immediately?" Old Man Wang nodded repeatedly. Last year's civil unrest in Suzhou ended with Jiangnan Group's promise to provide for the Suzhou textile industry. This is something that all ordinary people know.
"Besides, it's really hard to go, let's come back." Wang Qi also intervened to persuade Wang Liu: "No one will care about your bad job of carrying sacks if you don't go for a few days."
Wang Liu could no longer object to the family members' words.
So Old Man Wang promised Chi Dacong to go to Kunshan! Set off early tomorrow morning!
