Chapter 28 Pay

   "At the time, we wanted to change this kind of life, but there was no way. Everyone was lazy at work in order to save a little effort, and I can understand it without working hard. I am not afraid of everyone's jokes. I did the same.

  But now everyone can change this kind of life with their own strength. Why are you not willing? Is it because we are really slackers? Or we have become a habit of being lazy,

  Comrade Jiang Xiaobai said that after the road is built, people need people to make canned food. As long as you are willing to endure hardship, you can change this kind of life. I don’t understand why you don’t want to change, but I do.

I won’t say much about other things. If everyone thinks that my supervision is strict today, I’m sorry, I will remember all the favors I owe you. I have nothing to say even if you let me pay my life, but now I’m here. Can't open one eye and close one eye, sorry. "

  Li Lao San said, bowing deeply towards the crowd, and then continued.

  "Leave what you want to do and do it well. If you don't want to change, just leave if you are willing to live a poor life. I won't stop." After Li Lao San finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and picked up the hammer, and slammed it on the stone.

  The hammer collided with the stone, a series of sparks appeared, and then a large piece of stone fell off.

  The sound of shaking the sky awakened everyone who was still immersed in Li San's words.

   "I'll do it." Zhang Baofeng also picked up the hammer and rushed up.

"I stayed."

   "I will stay too."

   "I..." each villager either shouted, or started to work without saying a word.

  Active and passive are two concepts, which is why it has gone from eating a big pot of rice to the household contract responsibility system.

  When people change from messing around to living, the speed of quarrying has not increased by a small amount.

  If you’re tired, take a break by yourself. If sweat flows into your eyes and affects your vision, just wipe it. Soon trucks of stones of various sizes were mined.

  Until Wang Xiaojun brought mung bean soup, and Li Lao San organized, everyone stopped to rest for a while.

  When eating at noon, looking at the food on the dinner table, everyone felt that today was not a loss. The large pieces of braised pork made people appetite.

  Because they still had to work in the afternoon, everyone did not drink too much. After drinking a small glass, they stopped drinking.

  "Be sure to fasten it tightly and pay attention to safety." Jiang Xiaobai watched several villagers who tied the rope to his waist and was about to go down the cliff and put wood on it.

   "Don't worry, Xiaobai, this job is not unsuccessful." Several villagers said with a smile. The richness of the lunch at noon gave everyone a little more expectation that they could get their wages today.

  A few people slowly descended the cliff carrying the wood. Although this cliff is not the kind of cliff, it looks terrifying.

  As everyone slowly descended the cliff, everyone’s hearts were lifted up bit by bit, and their breathing hurried, as if they were afraid that they would fall off the cliff because of the loud breathing.

  Waiting for a few people to place the first log, after coming up from the edge of the cliff, everyone cheered.

  Jiang Xiaobai also loudly applauded, calling out to add vegetables to the evening, and he should get drunk before taking a break.

  One, two, three...The villagers carefully placed the wood on the edge of the cliff, and then continued to send the stones down.

  By the time the sky was getting dark, the outline of a roadbed was already out for more than half.

   "Come on, surround the two sides, let's go back to eat." Jiang Xiaobai dragged his tired body, shouting in a hoarse voice.

   "Come on."

   "Come on."

   "Let's work." Everyone shouted loudly, and everyone was exhausted from this day, but even though they were physically exhausted, they were all excited.

  They don’t know how long they haven’t worked so hard.

  "Walking you take the big road, don't take the small road.

  There are a lot of people on the road, so you can relieve your sorrows.

  You live in a big store, don't live in a small store.

  There are many thieves in the small shop, so worry about stealing you.

  Sleep and you sleep in the middle..." They are also people who live on the high slopes of the loess, and folk songs will also shout a paragraph.

  But in the past, most of them are not in the mood to sing, but today I don’t know why? Obviously everyone was tired and exhausted for a day, but everyone was in good spirits.

  I'm in a good mood, I want to scream. Laosan Li listened to someone singing and followed.

  "You are going to hold my hand,

  I want to kiss your mouth,

  Hands in hand, personally,

  The two of us walk in the pimple", the famous Xintianyou, aroused everyone's laughter.

  Everyone laughed again, and Jiang Xiaobai also learned a few words about Xintianyou.

  The sun sets, and people who have worked for a day walked towards the village in the light of the setting sun.

  Huang Zhongfu stood at the entrance of the village, looking from a distance with a smile on his face, Jianhua Village has not known such a scene for how long.

  I still remember when he was young...

  Old, the future belongs to the young, Huang Zhongfu turned and went home with a smile on his face.

   "Li Siyan, take the money and pay." After Jiang Xiaobai returned to the small yard, the first thing he did was to call Li Siyan to pay everyone for today's wages.

   "Come on," Li Siyan replied, took the account book and sat down on the chair, and took out a ruined ticket.

   Listening to Jiang Xiaobai’s words, even though there was already some preparation for the crowd in his heart, there was still a burst of noise.

   "It's really a salary of 50 cents. I thought it was like that."

   "Yes, so many people, how much money does it cost?"

  "I really didn't expect to have the start-up money. I think it's pretty good to be able to take care of the food?"

   "Everyone lined up, and whoever is called will come forward and collect the wages."

  Jiang Xiaobai shouted loudly, and the noisy crowd suddenly fell silent.

  "Zhang Baofeng, fifty cents." Li Siyan's voice was not loud, but everyone heard it was very crisp and sweet.

  Zhang Baofeng pressed his handprint on the paper, and tightly grasped the fifty cents in his hand. After a long time he was born and said, "Thank you."

   "Thank you for what? You deserve it." Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.

   "Next, Fatty Shi."

   "Li Xiaoliu..."

  "Wang..." As a person pressed his handprint, the fifty cents' wages were also taken into his own hands.

  Li Laosan looked at the fifty cents in his hand and almost didn't cry. The fifty cents a day really made him see the hope of life.

  At dinner in the evening, every villager asked Jiang Xiaobai for a drink. They wouldn’t say thank you, but many people’s eyes were red.
