Old Xia:...
He glanced at the cafeteria lady and went back helplessly. He said to his coworkers, "No! The food is even worse today? Let's go out to eat..."
A coworker agreed: "I think it's fine! I haven't seen meat in days. I can't do my job without eating some meat."
A coworker agreed: "There's a cheap hot pot nearby. We can split the cost. It's only a few dollars per person... and we can have meat and vegetables..."
Some workers also shook their heads and said, "If you want to go, go ahead. I'd rather eat here. It's almost enough."
"Yeah! I haven't been paid for several months, and my pockets are almost empty. It's not right to go out for dinner again. I'll just have to make do..."
Lao Xia: "Lao Liu, Lao Li, you both look sallow. I saw you staggering during the day. If you don't eat something good, you'll tire yourself out... There's a hot pot place that's cheap, with meat and vegetables. Let's go out and have a meal."
Unfortunately, Lao Liu and Lao Li still refused to go. They were reluctant to spend money on something free, not to mention that they were already owed several months' wages.
"Okay, okay!"
Old Xia left alone with a group of people.
Similar things were happening in all the canteens on the construction site. Some workers went out to eat in groups of three or four, while others, like Lao Liu and Lao Li, were reluctant to spend money and continued to queue.
Lao Xia brought a group of people to a hot pot restaurant outside the construction site and sat in a tent outside.
The proprietress came out hurriedly to greet him:
"Come... sit down... what do you want to eat..."
Lao Xia: "I want a free hot pot, ten plates of mutton, and the portions should be large, don't be short of quantity."
The boss lady: "Look at what you said, it is definitely not possible."
Old Xia: "Give me five plates of pickled mustard greens, three plates of frozen tofu, three plates of hot pot dishes, and ten pounds of hand-rolled noodles to cook in the pot, and drinks... five pounds of shabu-shabu... and some free gifts..."
The lady boss: "Okay...I'll be right there..."
Gulp! Gulp!
The other workers couldn't stop drooling when they heard the dishes Lao Xia ordered. They hadn't eaten well for many days. This meal had meat, vegetables, wine, and noodles. It was such a sumptuous meal.
: "Old Xia! Isn't that a bit too much..."
Old Xia: "Not much! You have to eat well when you go out, otherwise you won't have the energy to work, and accidents can easily happen on the construction site, you know? Eat! It's my treat..."
: "Fuck! You treat me? I'm rich..."
Lao Xia: "Eat yours!"
"Old Xia, why do I feel like you're doing something mysterious? Have you found another way to make money? Did you get something from the construction site?"
Old Xia: "Nonsense! Not to mention that the construction site is so strictly guarded, who would dare to steal? Besides, I'm not that person."
His eyes flickered. Of course, he was busy doing something important during this period. He subconsciously took out his cell phone.
There is a WeChat group chat, the name is:
[Just do it...]
Buzz...
A message popped up in the group. It was very simple, just two words: [Action]
brush!
Old Xia suddenly stood up with an excited look in his eyes, startling the people on both sides.
: "Old Xia, what's wrong with you..."
: "Scare me..."
Lao Xia: "You don't believe me..."
"Believe it! Of course I believe it! Old Xia, you are the most opinionated one among us..."
Old Xia: "That's good! I'll go back to the construction site to collect the debt... to ask for money. If you don't give it to me... I'll smash it... I'll make a scene... I'll quit..."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Is anyone else confused?
Making trouble? Smashing things? Quitting? This is...crazy...
"Lao Xia, why haven't you drunk it yet? You drink too much..."
"What's the point of arguing with them? Wasn't the last lesson enough? Brother Qian was fired without even a salary, and when he went to ask for money he was beaten... What can I do?"
:"yes..."
"Old Xia! If you think the food is not good, let's get together for today's meal... The construction site cafeteria is just like that, eating out is normal..."
Many workers tried to persuade Lao Xia.
Old Xia: "What do you mean by more? I couldn't make a fuss before because it wouldn't have any results. It was useless! On the contrary, I would get hurt... It's different now! Now I have a backer... Someone is backing me up?"
: "Someone is backing you up? Who is it..."
"Who can support us? We have no money and no connections. Besides, the Huwei Group is very famous in Songjiang. Who dares to offend them?"
Old Xia: "Who dares to offend him? Of course! Don't you always suspect that I am doing something big recently? To tell you the truth, I am indeed doing something big. Someone over there contacted me some time ago." He pointed in the direction of the Heilong construction site.
Swish! Swish!
Everyone looked in that direction and uttered two words:
Black Dragon
Old Xia nodded. "Yes! Black Dragon! The leader over there told me personally: As long as we act according to the plan, they will support us."
"What's the plan?"
Old Xia: "Three whistles... let's begin! Let's make a scene and make the world turn upside down!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Everyone was a little excited. Was there finally someone supporting them? Could they finally vent their anger?
Black Dragon Group!
That is an existence more domineering than the Huwei Group!
But some people still worry:
"Is it really okay to make such a fuss? What are we going to do with our salaries? We definitely can't pay them..."
"And if we keep making such a fuss, will no construction site dare to hire us anymore? This will cut off our livelihood..."
"......"
This time.
The excited workers seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water...
Wages!
Work!
It is their lifeline, the one that can hold their destiny by the scruff of the neck.
Old Xia: "What are you panicking about? If there were no guarantees, do you think we would have agreed? The Black Dragon leader said: As long as we can complete the work according to the plan, the wages will be paid in advance, and we can sue Hu Wei to get it back later. As for jobs, don't worry! We can join the Black Dragon construction site in the future and live a good life..."
Workers: ∑(O_O;)
Can I join Black Dragon? I get paid!
All the workers were completely nervous, their original fear was gone and they were left with only uncontrollable excitement.
a long time.
Someone trembled and said:
"Really?"
Lao Xia: "When have I ever lied to you..."
: "Fuck! Do it..."
"If not now, when..."
"Let's fight! When people die, birds fly to the sky, and if they live forever..."
...
These workers shouted without any fear, and their suppressed panic and anger turned into excitement and agitation.
Lao Xia: "Let's go…"
He led the workers to the construction site. A young man looked back at the hot pot that was served to him with a look of reluctance on his face.
Bang!
An old worker gave him a stern look: "Why are you thinking about hot pot now? What will you eat after joining Black Dragon? Don't you know what the food will be like?"
Young man: "Ah...yes!"
He quickly caught up with the team.
At the same time, there are many people like Lao Xia. They gather a large number of workers and go to the Huwei construction site, about to give Wang Wei, who has just been released from prison and is here to inspect, a surprise...
