I didn't see the sun when I went out today. The sky had been gloomy for a long time, and finally it started to rain... a light drizzle.

Feeling the wetness floating on his face, he raised his head and glanced up. In the spirit of working hard and leaving early, Wang Yan worked hard.

"Wang Yan...Wang Dashan..."

The shouts coming from not far away attracted the attention of the two men. They both put down their work, clapped their hands and stood up.

The team leader came closer and said, "You two pack up and stop working. The foreman is looking for you two."

Wang Dashan asked strangely: "Team leader, do you know what the foreman wants from us?"

After glancing at Wang Yan, the team leader said: "Zhao Jiaqing took a few people to find the foreman. I don't know the details. You will know when you go there. Okay, you two pack your things and leave quickly. Don't let

The foreman has been waiting for too long, I'll leave first."

Wang Yan nodded: "Okay, thank you, team leader."

The team leader waved his hand without saying anything more, turned around and walked away quickly.

Wang Dashan glanced at Wang Yan, turned around and went back to pack his things, and at the same time said loudly: "Do you think it's because of the card game?"

Is there any need to say that? That’s for sure. They can’t come up with so much money, and they don’t want to give it a house, so they can’t do it. The only thing that is probably of some use is this.

Wang Yan also squatted on the ground and packed his things: "Why are you thinking so much? Just pack it up quickly."

Sighing, Wang Dashan said nothing and sped up the movements of his hands.

…………

The two walked quickly outside the foreman's office. After Wang Dashan calmed down his breathing, Wang Yan knocked on the wooden door with "bang...bang...bang...".

"Enter……"

Hearing the sound from inside the door, Wang Yan pushed the door open and walked in. Wang Dashan behind him followed and closed the door.

Ignoring Zhao Jiaqing and others standing aside, Wang Yan approached and said, "Foreman, are you looking for me?"

The foreman stood up with a smile and patted Wang Yan on the shoulder: "Here you go, don't be restrained, come and sit." After saying this, he gestured for the two of them to sit on the stools behind.

"Thank you, Chief Engineer."

They thanked each other and sat down on the stools.

The foreman glared at Zhao Jiaqing and shouted softly: "What are you doing standing still? Go get some water..."

"Ah? Oh, oh... pour water, pour water now." Zhao Jiaqing reacted and quickly walked to the side and picked up the kettle.

Seeing him like this, the factory turned around and said with a smile: "How are you two? How are you doing at work recently?"

Wang Yan nodded: "Thank you, foreman, for your concern. It's okay."

Wang Dashan on the side also nodded in agreement.

The foreman took the hot water handed over by Zhao Jiaqing: "Are there any problems in life? You can speak up with confidence and raise any difficulties. We are all good comrades in building the country, and the organization will definitely not sit idly by, including me.

I will personally do my best to help you."

Before Wang Yan could speak, Wang Dashan hurriedly said: "There is really no problem. Don't worry, foreman."

Smiling and nodding, the foreman looked at Wang Yan.

Wang Yan said: "Thank you, foreman. There is no problem in life, everything is fine." As he spoke, he took the glass of water handed over by Zhao Jiaqing.

"That's good, that's good." Glancing at Zhao Jiaqing's back, the foreman took a sip of water: "Zhao Jiaqing and the others told me everything..."

After pondering for a while and looking at Wang Yan, the foreman continued: "I think we can discuss this matter. It's not easy, and it doesn't mean that Zhao Jiaqing and the others have to sell their houses to pay off their debts. You really need to be held accountable for your behavior.

, a group of people gathering for gambling can’t escape, there is no need to make such a big fuss. Let’s sit down and have a good talk. This will be good for you, for me, and for the construction workers of our entire section of the road. What do you think?

,Wang Yan?”

He did not show his identity and said that he would forget about this and that, because it was not easy to do, and Zhao Jiaqing did not have that much face. Yes, he was a leader, but how stupid is a leader? Few leaders were beaten? He was not beaten.

How does it hurt? He knew that Zhao Jiaqing had hired people to attack Wang Yan. Just look at Zhao Jiaqing and the others and he would know it. If Wang Yan was offended, he wouldn't be able to bear it.

Hearing this, Wang Dashan secretly tugged on Wang Yan's clothes and winked at him. The leader had already spoken, so he thought it would be fine. Considering that Wang Yan bought so many things at noon, he knew that he must

It's a lot of winning. Just don't ask for a bicycle, that's pretty much it.

After glancing at Wang Dashan who kept blinking, Wang Yan turned back to the foreman: "How does the foreman think this should be solved?"

The foreman pondered for a moment: "It's only natural to pay back debts. It's just that everyone bows his head but doesn't raise his head to see each other, so there is some sympathy. Why not let them raise as much money as possible, as much as possible..."

Seeing Wang Yan staring straight at him, the foreman felt a little guilty. After all, Zhao Jiaqing and the others were nothing. It would be two different things to find someone to blame if they lost. If Wang Yan hadn't been fierce enough, it's hard to say what the consequences would be. Now we're still looking for him.

This leader came to make peace, which was a bit bullying.

After finishing speaking forcefully, the foreman asked: "Do you think... can it be done?"

Looking at Zhao Jiaqing and others who were holding their breath, Wang Yan said with a smile: "The foreman has already spoken, what else can I say. In this way, if they come up with five thousand, this matter will be over."

He had expected this result. Faced with such a fierce creditor, they didn't have many choices. They could either go all out and kill him to settle the matter, or admit their debt. As for calling the police for gambling, it was not as good as shooting, no matter how long it took.

Time will come out. They have brains and are not stupid. And he has no intention of forcing them to death, so he just lets them go.

"Foreman, we..." Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiaqing opened his mouth anxiously and wanted to speak. It would be great if he could come up with five hundred. Where can he get five thousand?

The smile on the foreman's face froze, and he changed his face and shouted: "Shut up. Wang Yan has already given in so much, what else do you want? Do you still have me as the foreman in your eyes? Huh?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Yan next to him. Seeing him drinking water quietly without looking at him, he knew that his thoughts were in vain.

Putting on a smile again, the foreman looked squarely at Wang Yan: "Okay, as you said, five thousand. But can you extend it for some time? You also know their situation. In this way... one week, they will give you the money after one week.

, five thousand yuan is not bad at all.”

Wang Yan nodded: "Okay, that's it."

"Okay. You two have been working very hard recently. Just go back early today. It doesn't count as you leaving early."

"Thank you, foreman, let's go first..." Wang Yan stood up and said politely.

The foreman waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go and have a good rest."

After walking out the door, Wang Dashan grinned and walked briskly: "It seems that everything is okay. I'm not telling you, Wang Yan, don't be so reckless in future things. Fortunately, the foreman acted as the intermediary. We really want to thank the foreman.

If Zhao Jiaqing and the others are desperate and fight you, what will you do if something happens?"

Foreman?

If he confiscates the money, Wang Yan can eat the rails. What qualifications do Zhao Jiaqing and the others have to stand up to the foreman? Even if they can unite comrades and avoid influence and other high-sounding words, they will still lose their houses. As for Wang Yan,

Fierce, the foreman dared to criticize him, let alone Zhao Jiaqing and the others who were nothing and were designated to be manipulated to death.

Wang Yan laughed and boasted: "Forget it, what are they? Are they desperate? I'll give them three moves."

"But you made a lot of money this time? Liu Jinhu's five thousand, and now it's five thousand, which has become a ten thousand yuan household. But... do you really want Liu Jinhu's money?"

"You are just worrying about it. Don't even think about it. If Liu Jinhu really wants to cause trouble, will Zhao Jiaqing and the others still need to find the foreman?" Wang Yan said with a smile: "Stop thinking about it, let's go quickly. I can't bear to think about all the meat."

If you're hungry, go back and let your wife cook."

Wang Dashan thought so logically, rubbed his belly, and followed quickly with a smile.

………

Luo Yuzhu wrapped the tea eggs and handed them over, then collected the money with one hand: "Forty cents, just right."

"dad……"

"Hey, haha." Wang Dashan happily stepped forward and hugged Wang Xu, who was running over with an apple in hand, and patted his rear: "Call someone."

"Hello, uncle." Wang Xu called Wang Yan next to him.

Wang Yan smiled and rubbed his head: "Okay, so are you." Looking at the tiger-headed child in front of him, Wang Yan's mind flashed to what he would look like when he grew up, um... more mature?

"Why are you two back so early?"

Luo Yuzhu looked at the two of them, walked around her tricycle and took two steps closer, and asked strangely.

Glancing at Wang Yan next to him, Wang Dashan said: "The foreman has spoken, asking us two to go home early and have a good rest. Okay, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back. Wang Yan has been shouting all the way, so tell me too.

If you're hungry, let's close the stall first."

Luo Yuzhu didn't ask any more questions, turned around and started packing her things.

Adults are also greedy, but they can only restrain themselves. There was no business before, so she idly looked through the things Wang Yan bought. To be honest, the seats at the office were not so generous, so she had already arranged everything.

"You come down first, dad goes to help mom."

After leaving Wang Xu behind, Wang Dashan helped Luo Yuzhu busily close the stall.

Wang Yan rode a tricycle and followed Wang Dashan's family of three chatting and laughing back to their hut beside the railway.

After returning home and letting the children play by themselves, the three of them sat on the pony and gathered around to choose vegetables and chatted.

"Da Shan told me yesterday that you went to play cards with Zhao Jiaqing and the others. Seeing that you bought so many things, you must have won a lot, so there is no trouble, right?"

It's not surprising that Luo Yuzhu can think of this. It's human nature to judge oneself and others. In addition, her father is an old gambler. When he heard about the life-threatening man, he jumped over the wall and tried to kill everything.

Wang Yan smiled: "What trouble can there be? Just accept it if you lose. It'll be fine."

Wang Dashan on the side was afraid that Luo Yuzhu would ask questions. Knowing that the two of them were besieged by a large group of people at noon, he quickly changed the subject: "He has taken care of everything, there is no problem. By the way, how is the business today?"
