In front of the 6th Ximendao Internet Cafe in Tianyun City, which is under renovation, Wei Chunlan, wearing a blue skirt and white sneakers, hesitated, bit her lip, and came here with a red face.
In an Internet cafe that is being renovated, two carpenters are working together to use electric saws to cut pieces of wood for decoration. The sound of the electric saws cutting the boards is very harsh, and flying wood chips are flying everywhere on the ground and in the air.
sawdust.
On the ground, a thick layer of sawdust had fallen.
Wei Chunlan hesitated and just stepped through the door, she felt the soles of her shoes sink slightly. When she lowered her head, she saw that the sawdust on the ground was too thick.
There were flying sawdust flying towards her head, face, and body. She frowned, subconsciously took a step back, and shouted to the master who was busy cutting boards inside, "Hey, hello, master!"
The piercing sound of the chainsaw continued.
The two carpenters continued to work as usual.
There was no way, her voice was too soft and was completely covered by the harsh sound of the chainsaw.
Wei Chunlan blushed and shouted again, her voice slightly louder.
Unfortunately, it was still small and was still drowned out by the sound of the chainsaw.
There was nothing she could do, so she opened her mouth and shouted again.
After shouting several times, a master noticed her. The master was wearing a white gauze mask. His eyes noticed Wei Chunlan at the door, and he just shouted, "What did you say? What did you do?"
Wei Chunlan's face lit up and she quickly asked loudly: "Hey, Master! Master! Let me ask you, do you know Comrade Xu?"
She was as loud as she could.
However, the sound of the chainsaw is ruthless.
It was impossible for the two carpenters to put down what they were doing just because a big girl suddenly came to the door.
They are not the supporting characters in mindless novels or idol dramas. When they see a beautiful girl, they are stunned, or they immediately turn into a licking dog or something.
That's all nonsense!
These two carpenters are both middle-aged men in their forties.
They have long passed the age of being dominated by hormones. For men of their age, many things have been seen through.
For example: Women are the same even if they turn off the lights.
For example: Making money is not important. After all, there are old people at the top and young at the bottom.
Beautiful big girl?
Maybe they are interested in flirting when their balls are sore, or after drinking. When they are working? When they are working, if a beautiful girl appears, it will only bore them.
Just like the swordsmen in martial arts novels, they think that women will only affect the speed of drawing their swords.
Anyway, Wei Chunlan's question only ended with one sentence - "Ah? What did you say?"
Wei Chunlan frowned and asked again loudly.
Another sentence: "Ah? I can't hear you!"
As for whether they would turn off the chainsaw because of this and come over to ask her pleasantly what she just said?
That's just overthinking.
Wei Chunlan even saw the two carpenters frowning and looking impatient.
I also heard another carpenter say to the master who just talked to her: "Leave her alone! Are you talking to her?"
Very vulgar.
Wei Chunlan's face turned even redder.
But this is the reality. The cultural level of carpenters is not high. In life and work, it is a habit to use a few swear words.
Standing at the door, she hesitated and bit her lip, then she suddenly ran in quickly, letting the sawdust flying in the air fall on her head and body.
He quickly ran up to the two carpenters and repeated the question loudly, "Hey, hello, two masters! I want to ask if you know Tongdao Xu?"
"who?"
The master who spoke to him before asked loudly.
"Tongdao Xu!! Do you know Tongdao Xu?"
Wei Chunlan repeated loudly.
pity……
Carpenter: "I don't know! I don't know! I don't know which one you are talking about..."
They come from Shuidiao City and Meijia Decoration Company, but the current Meijia Decoration Company does not have many carpenters, masons, painters, etc. workers for a long time.
Since Mr. Xu took charge of Meijia Decoration, workers who perform various decoration tasks are basically hired from outside.
Anyway, there are so many workers of all kinds who come to the city to find work that there is no need to maintain a group of them for a long time.
Therefore, Wei Chunlan was unlucky because the external carpenter did not know Tongdao Xu's name.
In his usual work, he did not have the opportunity to interact with Comrade Xu.
When Comrade Xu, Tang Qing, and Xi Dongyang came here for inspection yesterday, although Ge Lianghua introduced them to them, he only said "Mr. Xu."
It was impossible to tell them the name of the two master carpenters, Xu Tongdao.
…
When Wei Chunlan came out of the decoration site, a thin layer of sawdust and fly ash had fallen on her head and body.
She was a little downcast.
The expression on his face clearly showed disappointment.
She thought about it for half the night last night before she thought of a way to get in touch with Comrade Xu again - come here to inquire.
Because she remembered that when she and Xu Tongdao bumped into each other yesterday, Xu Tongdao seemed to want to enter the Internet cafe that was being renovated.
Moreover, when they returned from the clinic, those who were with Xu Tongdao finally said goodbye to Xu Tongdao at the entrance of the Internet cafe.
Therefore, she happily thought that if she came here at noon today, she should be able to find out Comrade Xu's contact information.
Even, if you are lucky, maybe Comrade Xu will be here when she comes.
However, there are no eggs.
The reality is completely different from what she imagined.
The two carpenters here have never heard of Tongdao Xu.
None of the people Comrade Xu knew that she met here yesterday were not here today.
After leaving the Internet cafe under renovation, Wei Chunlan stood on the sidewalk, sighed, and looked back with disappointment at the Internet cafe under renovation...
His shoulders slumped slightly and he sighed again.
Turned around and left disappointed.
…
And at this moment.
In a restaurant called "Grandma Village" in Tianyun City.
In a private room on the second floor, Xu Tongdao, Ge Lianghua, Tang Qing and Xi Dongyang were eating and drinking with Jiang Yiming and Fan Bixing.
Jiang Yiming was still wearing his industrial and commercial uniform, and he was enthusiastically inviting everyone to drink and eat.
Of course, he mainly greeted Comrade Xu.
Jiang Yiming's gratitude to Comrade Xu can be seen in his words and expressions.
After all, as far as he is concerned, Tongdao Xu saved his sister's life last year.
Later, he gave his sister and brother-in-law an easy cashier job.
He has to accept this love.
While eating and drinking, he also asked a few words about Xu Tongdao's business.
I asked Tongdao Xu about his plan to expand his business to Tianyun City, and asked Tongdao Xu whether he planned to continue to expand his business in Tianyun City? and other questions.
Tongdao Xu did not hide anything, and roughly talked about his next plan, saying that he planned to continue investing in the Internet cafe branch in Tianyun City. After that, he might also come here to invest in hot pot restaurants, decoration companies, etc.
Jiang Yiming said logically that if you need help in the future, just come to him and don't be polite.
Xu Tongdao smiled and expressed his gratitude, saying that he would definitely not be polite.
A meal where both the guest and the host enjoy themselves.
