Zhou Wenzhong stood in the alley outside the courtyard. He wore a mask on his face, stepped on the asbestos tiles on the stool with his left foot, held four iron nails between the index and middle fingers of his left hand, and hit the nails with a hammer in his right hand. Without a saw,
Next, you can only use this method to make a row of holes in the asbestos tiles, and then break the asbestos tiles apart. With three large windows in two rooms, you have to consume 8 asbestos tiles to make enough
Yuta. This is the consumption data after breaking it apart.
Yan Bugui stood nearby, bent down and rubbed his hands and asked: "Comrade Zhou Wenzhong, the renovation of your house is almost done. Is the 4 yuan debt we agreed on before... haha
...Would you like to exempt me from it?"
Zhou Wenzhong climbed up the ladder with the asbestos tiles, placed the asbestos tiles on the wooden frame that had been nailed on the exterior wall, and took out the nails from his pocket.
"hammer."
After hearing this, Yan Bugui immediately picked up the small hammer on the ground, raised his hands above his head and handed it to Zhou Wenzhong on the ladder.
"Dang! Dang! Dang..."
"Asbestos tiles."
Yan Bugui quickly ran to the side, picked up the asbestos tiles on the ground, raised them over his head and handed them over.
"clang…"…
Zhou Wenzhong tugged at the asbestos tiles nailed on the window and found that the tiles did not move. He praised his workmanship in his heart.
"cement."
Yan Bugui bent down and handed over the small half basin of cement that had been left on the ground, along with the wooden ash-picking knife over his head.
Zhou Wenzhong stood on a chair and began to use cement to seal the joint between the asbestos tiles and the exterior wall.
"Comrade Zhou Wenzhong, you said at my house that day that you would waive the 4 yuan debt after you finished the work. You must not have forgotten this, right?"
Zhou Wenzhong walked down the ladder and ignored Yan Bugui. He finished the window rain covers in the other two places one by one, patted the dirt on his body and walked back to his home.
Yan Bugui was busy picking up the tools on the ground behind him, holding a cement basin in his left hand, and putting his right arm through the ladder on his shoulder. He ran behind Zhou Wenzhong in a "bell-dropping wave".
"call…"
After returning home, Zhou Wenzhong admired his decoration masterpiece with satisfaction in the house. As soon as he picked up the enamel jar and took a sip of water, he saw Yan Bugui, who was covered in dirt and wanted to step into the main room of his home. He raised his finger and pointed.
Outside the hospital, Yan Bugui quickly took his feet back with a smile on his face.
Zhou Wenzhong lit a cigarette and walked out of the main room, and Yan Bugui, who looked like a dog-legged man, immediately came over.
"Haha...Zhou Wenzhong, you must be the kind of person who keeps his word. We have to say what we say, and every spit is a nail. And your behavior is what we..."
"How many days did we agree to finish the work?"
Yan Bugui had a stunned expression on his face, and responded with a wry smile: "3 days."
"So what day is it now?"
"Day 6."
"Hmm...huh...did I help you with any work in the past six days?"
Yan Bugui thought Zhou Wenzhong wanted to be listened to. He nodded vigorously, stretched out his thumb and praised: "It must be said that your craftsmanship is good. I have never seen your kind of work in our area!"
One portion of scorpion daddy, only one portion!"
"Um!"
Zhou Wenzhong smiled and nodded in response. Yan Bugui thought that his flattery method was working. Just as he was about to strike while the iron was hot and give a few compliments, he heard Zhou Wenzhong speak again.
"Since you have never seen my kind of craftsmanship, it proves that your Yan family is lucky enough to meet me. It seems that you and your two sons have also stolen a lot from me in the past few days.
Teacher. Should you take care of the tuition fee and apprenticeship ceremony for me?"
"Don't! We grandpas haven't learned anything! We definitely haven't learned your working skills. Our whole family will never do this kind of work in the future! I promise you!"
Zhou Wenzhong plucked his ears and said: "What are you shouting for? I'm not deaf. Decorating a house is a skill for establishing a career. As long as you can learn the three skills from me, Zhou Wenzhong, you can follow the people from the infrastructure team and help."
Life is a piece of cake. Since you haven't learned anything, I won't say anything about tuition fees. It only proves that you are stupid. I put a spoon in your mouth, and you Yan family members are too lazy to open your mouth."
Listening to Zhou Wenzhong scolding his family, Yan Bugui was so angry that the corners of his mouth twitched. But now he could only smile with his face. As long as Zhou Wenzhong could forgive the 4 yuan debt, the six days of sin would be forgotten.
My family has not suffered in vain.
"Yes...we are stupid and cannot learn the superb skills you have."
Zhou Wenzhong asked again: "You just admitted that I helped you with your work, right? I like honest people. You should think about this before answering."
Yan Bugui said in a sonorous and powerful tone: "Yes, you did help us with the work."
Zhou Wenzhong nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, we have agreed before that the renovation of the house is a contract work for you. But since I have done the work, do my wages have to be calculated as well?
"
"Ah? It's not...this..."
Seeing Yan Bugui waving his hands repeatedly, Zhou Wenzhong took out a small notebook and pen. While writing in the notebook, he said: "I don't care how much you want, just give me 2 yuan for my wages for these six days."
I know in my heart that I only come up with ideas, and most of them rely on the efforts of the three of you."
Yan Bugui thought in his mind that if he deducted 2 yuan, he would still have 2 yuan. Since he and his sons neither work nor go to school, it would be 2 yuan if they could earn 2 yuan.
"Okay, your wages will be considered as 2 yuan."
Zhou Wenzhong nodded and said, "Now that my salary has been paid, should my lost time pay be calculated as well?"
Seeing Yan Bugui take a deep breath, Zhou Wenzhong immediately said: "I am preparing to enter the factory to take over. If you don't believe it, you can ask Master Yi Zhonghai. If you delay the production progress of our factory in these six days, I will
Without further ado, I will simply calculate my lost wages for you. Due to the special nature of my work, my salary after joining the factory was 22 yuan and 5 cents per month, which works out to 7 and 5 cents per day.
You can also ask Master Yi Zhonghai about this, so my salary for these 6 days is 4 yuan and 50 cents."
Zhou Wenzhong raised his hand to interrupt Yan Bugui who was about to speak, and suppressed what he was about to say, making his face turn red with anger.
"I haven't settled my account with you yet. In the past six days, since I couldn't go into the factory to eat in the canteen, my food stamps were consumed faster at home. As we all know, in the factory canteen, 10 kilograms of food stamps can buy 12
Jin of meals, that is, the ratio increases by 17%.
In these 6 days, based on the standard that I ate 2 meals at home every day, and each meal was half a kilogram of grain, it was calculated as 6 kilograms of grain, and then multiplied by the ratio of 17%, I consumed 1 kilogram more grain at home, so you
You have to give me another 1 kilogram of food stamps. I won’t break down the cost of buying food with you. Who made your family’s life difficult?
The other thing is that the work was originally planned to be completed in 3 days. Now you go into the house and smell it. Can you move in with such a choking smell? You delayed the progress of the project for 3 days and made me unable to sleep in my own home. I will pay for the accommodation.
I’ll calculate it according to the Datong Shop in the guest house, which is 2 cents per day, or 6 cents for 3 days. I won’t give you the letter of introduction either.”
Zhou Wenzhong held a small book in his left hand, holding a pen in his right hand and pointing at the calculated figures, and handed it to the pale Yan Bugui for him to check.
"Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao, I, Zhou Wenzhong, am the most fair person. Although you delayed the construction period, for the sake of your family's pity, I accept the 4 yuan originally agreed! Now the bill calculation is over, before deduction
After the agreed 4 yuan wages, you still owe me 1 catty of food stamps and 3 yuan and 10 cents."
Yan Bugui looked at the bill in silence, his expression changing. He was stunned for more than a minute.
Yan Bu laughed out loud and said: "Hehe... Hehe... The three of us have worked for you for 6 days. In the past few days, we have smelled so much lime that our throat hurts and it is difficult to drink water."
After settling the accounts now, I still owe you more than 3 yuan. Hahaha..."
"To be precise, it's 3 yuan and 10 cents, and 1 catty of food stamps."
"Okay! You are so awesome!"
"I, Zhou Wenzhong, know how much I weigh, and I am just an ordinary person. Thank you for your compliment."
Yan Bugui sighed and said, "Okay! I accept the bill. Please return my pocket watch to me."
"That's the construction period deposit you gave me in the early stage. It's good that I didn't ask for compensation for your delay in construction. You actually want the deposit back. Have you been awake these days and thinking about something good?
"
"I don't understand what you are talking about. There is no agreement between the two of us."
"Oops, ouch... ouch... I really can't see it, Yanbu Gui, are you telling me now that there is no agreement and you won't accept the debt? I asked you, are you the northwest wind who drank too much? Since you want to refuse to accept the debt, then I will admit to taking you.
What about the pocket watch?”
"When you took the pocket watch, our whole family saw it."
"Hey, my darling, do you still know how to find witnesses? When will your immediate family members be able to testify against you? How come I don't know about this? Do you believe that I can ask my family members to testify against you?
I borrowed 200 yuan and haven’t paid it back.”
"Then I...there is no agreement anyway."
Zhou Wenzhong took out the 100-yuan IOU from his pocket and said: "This is the agreement. I will accompany you on any agreement you want to negotiate with me. If you don't want to accept the bill for renovating the house, I can also refuse it."
The account for glasses and glass, and the account for your two sons’ medical expenses.”
"I didn't write you a receipt for your medical expenses!"
"Hahaha...Are you confused? I won't even admit those things, and I will admit that I wrote or didn't write a receipt? And you didn't ask for a new IOU, so! Even if this lawsuit between us is fought,
It’s me, Zhou Wenzhong, who has the right to go to the end of the world. In the end, I have to carry out the IOU of 100 yuan.”
“There were police comrades present that day!”
"So what if the police were there at the time? How would they know if I paid you or not? If someone reports the crime, they have to come over and take a look. They were just doing a routine thing. When they get to the court, they will say that we both requested to negotiate on our own that day."
Yan Bugui lowered his head severely, raised his right thumb and gestured in front of Zhou Wenzhong and said: "I'm convinced! I don't want the pocket watch anymore." After saying this, he turned around and left.
Zhou Wenzhong immediately scolded: "Stop! Pay for it! You are such a bad guy and you still want to avoid my account!"
Yan Bugui stood at the far door, holding on to the door frame and begging: "I said the wrong thing just now, and I apologize to you. But my family really has no money, so I gave you the pocket watch. Can I not take it?"
"Don't talk to me about these things. If we don't have money, we will file a lawsuit. Anyway, I, Zhou Wenzhong, have plenty of money. I will spend money to play with you in the court. I dare not say that I can kill you, at least I can kill you.
If you file a lawsuit with me, I can delay you for 10 years. Let me see how you can make money to support your family if you don't go to work."
"Believe it or not...believe it or not..."
Yan Bugui held his neck and panted heavily, his face turned red and he spoke incoherently, which made Zhou Wenzhong growl...
