How the rich are made

In another four or five days, the construction site will be completed. After a while, I have gradually grown and become familiar with the business of this line.

Originally, I wanted to stay and finish the work, but Omega didn't agree, saying that she didn't want to drive anymore and needed me to come back.

Company Secretary Fan Yuanyuan booked high-speed rail tickets back to Handong for our evacuated employees.

Originally, Fan Yuanyuan told me that Omega wanted me to fly back to the company, but I refused, because I didn't want the workers to treat me differently.

In fact, it only takes more than four hours for the high-speed rail to reach Handong, which is more than two hours slower than the plane.

In the evening, our evacuees began to pack their bags.

The team leader Wang Changgui, father and son, and my master Liu Changguo stayed to finish the work, because Lao Huang resigned automatically, so I was the only one who evacuated our container ahead of time.

"Xiang Nan, the master gave you something."

Liu Chang Guoshen mysteriously took out something wrapped in red cloth from his bag.

"Master, what is this?"

Liu Changguo slowly spread out the red cloth.

It's a tape measure.

"Take it."

I took the tape measure that Liu Changguo handed me, and I was very puzzled.

The tape measure is much smaller than the ones we usually use. When the ruler is pulled out, some of the numbers on it are blurred, and the length of the ruler is only three meters.

"This ruler is considered an antique. It was made in the Republic of China. It has been with me for decades. Today I give it to you."

It can be seen that my master is very precious. When he spoke, his eyes showed reluctance.

Wang Changgui stepped forward and patted me on the shoulder, and said full of praise: "Xiang Nan, your master thinks highly of you. He hasn't had an apprentice for several years. This time he accepted you as an apprentice and gave him his treasure to you. Are you still paying attention to me?" Hurry up and thank your master, and ask him to drink more wine tonight."

I nodded and told Liu Changguo seriously: "Master, I will treasure this tape measure. Thank you for taking care of me during this time and teaching me the essence of this industry. To be honest, I like this industry very much. The first time I complete the installation of a section of pipeline, I will look back at my achievements and feel a sense of accomplishment.”

What I said was very sincere, Liu Changguo was very pleased to hear it, and nodded frequently.

"Don't say anything, I'm going to buy wine."

After finishing speaking, I rushed out the door and wanted to drink a few more bottles of beer with everyone in the evening.

The canteen in the upper factory area bought a case of beer.

Only less than half a box is iced, because there are too many buyers, and the owner of the canteen has no time to sell the three refrigerators, so I snatched up the half box in my hand.

I picked a bag full of snacks that go with wine, peanuts of various flavors, and soaked claws, etc.

Before leaving, I also told the boss to leave a box of beer in the refrigerator for me, and I will come to pick it up when the beer in my hand is almost drunk.

I was afraid that the boss would not keep it for me, so I paid the money in advance.

Back in the dormitory, Wang Changgui brought in the simple table he had nailed with wooden planks a few days ago.

"Come on, let's do it." Wang Changgui opened the wine quickly.

"There aren't many iced ones. Let's drink first. After drinking the wine in the boss's refrigerator, it will be almost iced. I'll go get it then."

I grabbed a bottle of beer and handed it to Wang Changgui's son.

Wang Changgui's son looked at his father expectantly, hoping for permission.

"You brat, drink it." Wang Changgui was happy.

Liu Changguo was soaking his feet, and he had just started.

Even so, it didn't affect his love for beer. While soaking his feet, he drank cold beer with us and even bragged.

If you look carefully, you can see that Liu Changguo's feet soaked in the basin are somewhat different from ours.

On both feet there were small bumps on the edge of the big toe, which were caused by long-term accumulation of tophi.

A case of wine will soon be gone, and regardless of whether the beer is cold enough, I go to the canteen in the factory to buy wine again.

On the way there, a text message popped up on my phone.

(Come and find me at the food stall you brought me to last time.)

It was from Lao Huang.

Lao Huang, who had been out of contact for more than ten days, had been in Jiangdong the whole time.

Thinking that I will see Lao Huang later, I will not be able to drink with everyone, so I bought an extra case of wine.

I took the wine back to the dormitory, and I apologized to everyone: "I'm so sorry, Lao Huang asked me to meet in the city, so I can't drink with everyone."

"It's okay, let's go." Liu Changguo spoke first.

Liu Changguo said jokingly: "Go ahead, give me a message to Lao Huang, and ask him when he will return the 500 yuan he lent me."

I embarrassedly said that I will pay back the money for him.

Before I left, I deliberately drank a bottle of beer in one go to apologize.

……

Fortunately, just before the factory gate, a taxi stopped at the gate.

In the car, I handed over a cigarette and happily asked the driver: "Master, what a coincidence. I met you as soon as I went out. Without you, I might not be able to get a taxi."

"I just sent someone over here, and the car was empty when I went back to the city, so I stopped and waited for a while." The master was not polite to me, and then lit the cigarette.

Maybe because of drinking, I chatted with the taxi driver all the way.

From the issue of social atmosphere to the income issue of the taxi industry.

……

When I came to the food stall, I unexpectedly noticed that the BMW off-road vehicle that rolled over last time was parked on the side of the road.

Walking to the store, I found Lao Huang in an open box.

Be nice!

Sitting next to Lao Huang was the BMW girl who was injured in the previous accident.

The BMW girl looks about the same age as Lao Huang, and the clothes are quite charming.

A white sleeveless button-down shirt that even reveals the purple underwear inside, a black skirt, and black stockings.

"Xiang Nan, this is my girlfriend Li Li, who is one year older than me." Lao Huang introduced the BMW woman next to her to me, and then introduced me to the BMW woman: "This is my brother Xiang Nan."

"Hello." I held out my hand politely.

Li Li shook hands with me, nodded and smiled at me shyly.

I sat next to Lao Huang.

Lao Huang asked Li Li to order food.

When she left, I couldn't wait to ask Lao Huang: "What's the situation?"

Lao Huang grinned at me silly and didn't speak.

"Why, are you still angry?" I kept a straight face at this moment, expressing my dissatisfaction.

Old Huang crossed his legs and shook his feet, and said arrogantly: "I've stopped being angry with you for a long time. I came here a few days after you returned to Jiangdong, but I couldn't bear to go to the construction site, and then I came I'm looking for Miss Li."

Lao Huang told me that Li Li, who drives a BMW, is also considered a half-rich woman. Although she was divorced, Lao Huang didn't mind, and she had no children anyway.

I patted Lao Huang on the shoulder and joked: "You have worked harder than everyone else for a few years."

"Fuck you." Lao Huang continued cursing, "I didn't think she was rich. We chatted very well. I also got along with her and felt that Sister Li was more suitable for me than Omega, so I started dating."

It can be seen that Lao Huang is very satisfied, and I am also sincerely happy for him.

At this time, her girlfriend also ordered good food and came back.

I told Lao Huang that I will go back to Handong tomorrow.

Lao Huang was taken aback for a moment, and then asked me in surprise: "The construction site is over?"

I nodded: "Hurry up, leave a few people tomorrow to finish the work, and leave the rest first."
