"The village chief is really killing people for coming up with such a bad idea."
"Isn't that right? A good job has been cut off, and there will be no chance in the future."
"What do you think we can go after it stops raining?"
"If I were Li Wenjun, I wouldn't want to hire workers like this anymore. They make trouble at every turn and demand a raise in wages."
"That's right, a relative of mine in the next village said that yesterday Li Wenjun came to ask them if anyone was willing to do the project. If so, he would go to the County No. 1 Middle School when the rain stops."
"Ah, what are you waiting for? Let's go back and say good things to Factory Director Li. It's better than having no work to do in the future. It's our fault in the first place."
"But when will the rain stop?"
"You are so stupid. Are you going to wait until the rain stops? Go and get a seat now. When the rain stops, he will have found all the people. There is no point in looking for him again."
"Where to find him?"
"I don't have the nerve to go to him directly."
"Go find Uncle Tugen. Uncle Tugen is from our village and he will always speak for us."
"That's it, let's pack our things together and go to County No. 1 Middle School to find Uncle Tugen."
"I don't have a bicycle at home. Sixi, can you pull me?"
"Let me wipe, you are so heavy, how can I pull you up?"
"Let's take turns stepping on it, okay? Otherwise, if I walk, I don't know when it will start raining outside again."
"Okay, okay, fellow countryman, I really can't do anything to you."
"Meet here in ten minutes. Everyone, please hurry up. Maybe we can go early. Director Li will also take care of dinner, which will be our half-day salary."
When everyone heard this, they became even more excited and got up one after another and went out.
"Call the others."
"Don't call us the village chief. He has many things to do. Maybe if we see him, Factory Director Li won't dare to hire us."
"Yes, don't call their family members that name. This time it's their family members who did the bad thing."

Wang Yongding slipped away early and rushed home to call Wang Musen and Wang Shilei: "Take the mat, dishes, chopsticks, towel and toothbrush, push the bicycle, and come with me to the county No. 1 Middle School."
Wang Musen frowned: "What?"
Wang Yongding said: "They are going to County No. 1 Middle School to ask Li Wenjun to rehire them. We can just follow them. We don't even need to open our mouths."
As soon as Wang Shilei heard this, he immediately went in to collect his things.
Wang Musen frowned: "Isn't this bad?"
With the same attitude before, now you are running to beg for help, isn't it like sticking your face out to be beaten?
Wang Shilei sneered and said: "Hey, we have money to make, so don't worry about it. Besides, it's not like we don't work. We get paid for every day we work. Li Wenjun also said that it's normal for us to raise our demands, and he doesn't think there's any problem. Besides,
Our previous one also worked honestly. If I were him, I would definitely use strangers rather than familiar ones. The new ones also need to be trained."
Wang Musen gritted his teeth and said: "Then go ahead. I don't care about marrying a wife just to make money."
Wang Shilei: "But we only have one bicycle, which can only seat two people."
Wang Yongding said: "Find someone to ride with you, and let your brother ride on the family car to ride with me."
When Wang Shilei heard this, he wanted to protest, but his father glared at him and he could only swallow his words.
-----
Everyone packed up their things, pushed their bicycles, and returned to the same place one after another.
Wang Yongding and his son came pushing a bicycle.
Everyone looked at each other.
Why are they here?
No one called them.
Wang Sixi frowned: "Village chief, where are you going?"
Wang Yongding did not answer, but asked: "Where are you going?"
Wang Sixi said: "The crops in the fields are all flooded, let's go to the city to find work." He was joking, how could he tell Wang Yongding the truth?
Wang Yongding sneered secretly, but kept a calm expression on his face: "Let's go together, my seedlings are also flooded." On this rainy day, there was nowhere to recruit workers. He was really telling lies with his eyes open.
Everyone exchanged painful looks.
Wang Sixi said: "Village Chief, you'd better not go. We may not be able to find you. Besides, you are old and there is flooding outside. If you fall into the field on the way, it will be difficult."
Wang Yongding waved his hand: "It's okay. My son will take me. Don't be afraid. If I don't have any work to do, I will follow you back."
Everyone saw that he was so thick-skinned and there was nothing they could do.
Wang Shilei smiled at Wang Dagou with saliva on his face: "Dagou, please give me a ride. I only have one bicycle at home."
Wang Dagou rolled his eyes: "I can't pull it."
Wang Shilei added: "Then I'll step on it and you sit in the back."
Wang Dagou stared at him and didn't know what to say.
Look down and see you, you have to go back to the village after finishing this job, and everyone will still have to listen to the village chief.
Besides, they are all from the same village, and Wang Shilei has said so, so you can't just slap him in the face and refuse.
Wang Dagou could only say reluctantly: "Then you ride well. If the tire bursts, you pay to repair it."
Wang Shilei hurriedly said: "Okay, if there are any problems, I will be responsible for fixing them."
Wang Sixi said: "Let's leave quickly. If we don't leave, it will be even more dangerous when it gets dark."
After everyone heard this, they were too lazy to waste time arguing with Wang Yongding and the others.
After all, it is not up to them to decide whether Li Wenjun wants Wang Yongding or not.
------
The heavy rain outside had turned to light rain, and several villagers rode their bicycles in the rain to go to the county town to look for Lao Wangtou.
Because the river surged and overflowed its banks, flooding fields and roads, it was impossible to see where the road was.
The field is more than one meter lower than the road. If you fall in, you won't be able to swim. It's like falling into a river. If you don't drown, you will lose half your life.
Everyone relied on their daily memories and carefully rode close to the trees planted on the roadside before arriving at the county town smoothly. However, everyone was soaked by the rain, dripping all over, and fish could grow in their shoes.
------
On the playground, water was drained out from places where water should have accumulated.
That's because the drainage ditch dug two days ago worked.
Early in the morning, Tao Guangming heard that Li Wenjun was coming to the county, so he drove Li Wenjun over.
Li Wenjun was not wet at all.
At this moment, Principal Wu and Li Wenjun were drinking tea and talking in the office on the second floor.
Principal Wu sighed: "Comrade Wen Jun really had the foresight to have the drainage ditch dug first. Otherwise, the previous work would have been in vain if it was soaked in water for a few days."
Li Wenjun laughed: "It was just a coincidence. It rained heavily just after digging."
In fact, he had studied the exploration data before and found that the overall altitude of the school was higher than that of the surrounding areas. The previous waterlogging was purely due to poor drainage. He remembered that during this period of that year, there were heavy rains in the county for several days, and then the weather continued to clear up.
for a month.
I just wanted to take this opportunity to test the drainage they made.
The effect is not bad.
It seems that there are many benefits to reliving life again and having a strong memory.
I originally thought that since it would rain these days, I would let the workers take a break and make prefabricated concrete parts.
Unexpectedly, the people in Wangjia Village were clamoring to leave, but they actually saved him a lot of money.
It’s really not as good as God’s calculations.
If people are too greedy, heaven will not stand them.
The phone on Principal Wu's desk rang: "Hello, hello."
The man on the phone said: "Hello, Principal Wu, I heard that your project has been stopped. Are you interested in replacing it with someone more capable?"
