Li Wenjun smiled: "I don't see that you think you are wrong."
Jiang Yi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, knelt down, prostrated on the ground, and kowtowed: "I kneel down for you, please forgive me. I was really wrong."
Li Wenjun remained silent and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
It was so quiet in the office, but this sound was particularly clear, making Jiang Yi feel suffocated even more.
Li Wenjun said: "Well, you tell me why you took the initiative to harm me back then. After thinking about it, I think I have not offended you. If you explain clearly, I will give you a job opportunity."
Jiang Yi said: "There is no special reason. I am just young, stupid and find it fun."
Li Wenjun stared at him steadily, and Jiang Yi felt as if his eyes were boring two holes into him.
He didn't dare to look at Li Wenjun anymore and lowered his head: "I can't stand you. Girls all like you. The other students are all obedient to me. If I ask for money, they will give it to me. I want them to help me get the money."
On the day, they help me on duty. As long as you don't take me seriously, I can't beat you. So I... I just want to make you miserable."
His father, who was violent and alcoholic, would never come back. As soon as he came home, he would greet Jiang Yi and Jiang's mother with fists and raindrops.
I often go to school with injuries.
He was very angry and wanted to find his dignity outside, so he bullied others everywhere.
Jiang Yi can defeat anyone, but Li Wenjun alone cannot do anything about it.
The more he couldn't subdue Li Wenjun, the more he went crazy and wanted to kill him, using any dirty method.
Li Wenjun nodded slightly: "Well, this reason is the real reason. Thank you for telling me, so that I finally figured it out."
Jiang Yi raised his head: "That army...Director Li, can you be kind and give me a job?"
Li Wenjun thought for a while and said: "We have to dig sand from the river at the construction site. There should be a shortage of people. I'll give them a call and you can go directly. You can report to Manager Tan from the construction company."
Jiang Yi quickly stood up and bowed to Li Wenjun: "Thank you, thank you."
Then he backed out.
-----
Jiang Yi still didn't believe that Li Wenjun would actually call the construction company until the guard at the production area let him in and he saw Tan Dailei.
Tan Dailei told him that the job involved unloading sand from a sand dredger into trucks. The salary was not high, but he only had to work two hours in the morning and afternoon each day.
Jiang Yi sighed: "How can I be picky now? It would be nice to have a job."
Tan Dailei distributed work clothes to Jiang Yi, and then asked other sand unloaders to take him with them.
Everyone was unhappy to see Jiang Yi with one hand disabled.
Because the workload and personnel are fixed.
If Jiang Yi did less, others would do more.
Besides, this work is actually very hard. Don’t bask in the heat on the river beach. Even in autumn, the sun will make you dizzy.
It’s not that everyone doesn’t want to work more, it’s that we can only do it when it’s cool in the morning and evening, otherwise it’s easy to get heatstroke.
Now that I have a disability, we may have to work a little longer and be in the sun a little longer.
Jiang Yi felt very unhappy when he saw other people's faces looking bad.
Everyone ignored Jiang Yi and chatted while working.
"Do you think you have finished harvesting the Venus ink jade ore in this river?"
"Who knows, but brothers Li Wenyong and Li Wenjun are both fishing, so they probably don't have much left."
"We used to dig out a truck of sand and still be able to pick out four or five yuan and sell it to Li Wenyong. At least one person can share dozens of yuan a day, and sometimes one or two hundred yuan."
"Yeah, now you can't dig out even one piece in a day. It's just a dead wage. It's getting more and more boring the more you do it."
"Haha, I still have to bring a burden."
Jiang Yidang couldn't hear the last sentence, so he leaned over and asked: "What is Venus and Moyu?"
The others turned away and ignored him with cold faces.
One of the sand unloaders knew Jiang Yi, who was a former mine employee. He replied: "It is a kind of black jade, an associated ore of pyrite. A piece of rough stone can be sold for hundreds of yuan. We didn't know it before, but later
Li Wenjun discovered it and made a fortune by picking up this jade from the slag."
In fact, it’s not right to say that. Li Wenjun made his first pot of gold by making walkie-talkies. The money he got from selling jade was just a drop in the bucket for him.
But he was too lazy to waste time explaining to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi became excited: "Then why are we still digging sand here? Let's go look for it in the slag."
Another sneered: "Do you think others are fools? Only if you can pick them up. All the slag has been collected by Li Wenyong. Now it is only found in old mines and rivers."
The mine collapsed. In his condition, he couldn't dig out the old mine by himself.
That only exists in the river.
Jiang Yi cast his eager eyes towards the river: Damn it, he has been poor enough in this life. It’s time for him to make a fortune.
He had visited this river four or five times every summer when he was a child, and he couldn't be more familiar with it.
The man who just answered him said: "Jiang Yi, don't be so stupid. The river here is completely different from the river we used to swim in when we were children. In recent years, the sand digging has hollowed out a lot of the river below.
Vortex.”
Others also said: "The dam above does not release water regularly. It is really dangerous."
Jiang Yi felt his heart tremble after hearing this, and nodded: "I understand."
Even though he said that, he still couldn't help but ask others here and there how to distinguish the Venus Moyu.
Those people said that Venus ink jade is heavier and harder than other black pebbles. It cannot be scratched with a knife.
After six days of digging sand, Jiang Yi was so exhausted that his bones felt like they were falling apart. His hands were covered in blood blisters, and the skin on his back was peeled off by the sun.
Finally it happened to be Sunday. He lay at home and didn't want to move. His body was in burning pain. It was really harder than being at the construction site.
There is no solution if we continue like this, we have to find other ways to make money.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but recall what those people said.
"One piece can be sold for hundreds of dollars."
As long as you touch a piece, you won't have to work for at least a month. Isn't it better than digging sand?!
This small bungalow at home is about to collapse.
My mother said that it was caused by an earthquake a few years ago. Although I repaired it, it still didn't work after a long time.
He must at least make some money to replenish his house.
This season is when the water in the river is the shallowest, and it has been surprisingly hot these two days. If you don’t try it now, you will have to wait a year.
He made up his mind, dug out the old car inner tube that he had used as a lifebuoy when he was a child from the utility room, and endured the pain all over his body and pumped it up.
The inner tube is old and leaking a little, but it should still be usable.
Then he rode his bicycle and went out with the inner tube on his arm.
He made serious preparations to move on, but when he got into the water, his second foot came up empty. He choked hard, hugged the tire hurriedly, calmed down, and felt it on the shore before he dared to
Go to the middle.
There are bottomless pits everywhere in the middle, but luckily he has an inner tube.
Taking a deep breath, he dived straight down to the bottom of the river, took off the folding fruit knife hung on a rope around his neck, and scratched the black rocks at the bottom of the river piece by piece.
There is one piece that really cannot be scratched.
