Chapter 79 You hide in the house and don’t show up, okay?
Jiang Yaoting certainly couldn’t write that Li Yang was a poor student, because he was too smart and finally worked hard for a month and successfully passed the exam and became the top scorer.
This is not for ordinary people to see.
What ordinary people need is inspiration, not dreams.
How many people in the world can reach Li Yang's level?
He had to find an excuse for Li Yang's poor test scores, saying that after he made up his mind, he stuck to his 7:3 strategy, and that it also showed that Li Yang was a very patient person with a very firm belief.
Of course, we also have to write about the educational philosophy of Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School. No matter how poorly Li Yang deliberately performs on weekdays, the school will always be tolerant of him. This is also the educational philosophy of Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School, which will not give up on any student.
Balabala... This is a free, open and inclusive learning environment, which is an exploration of the educational concept of the new era...
This manuscript must be distributed throughout the county during the day!
…
Li Likun and Wang Cuiping did not sleep all night.
As for work tomorrow?
What the hell! My son scored over 700 points! He is the top scorer in the province.
Li Likun was the most annoyed because Wang Cuiping had been complaining about him for a long time, saying that he should go back earlier and hire someone to help them with the work for a few days.
Isn't it just losing some money...
Li Likun knew that this was just Wang Cuiping's expression of nervousness, so he admitted it frankly.
In fact, he also regretted that he should not have been greedy for those few thousand dollars. Even if it was tens of thousands of dollars in total, it was not as good as being at home at this time.
He couldn't even imagine what he would be like if he were at home. Wouldn't he have to buy some big fireworks in the middle of the night to set them off?
"Have you booked your ticket?"
He asked.
They can use smartphones a little, but they are not very good at advanced tasks such as booking tickets.
Basically, you buy it directly at the train station, or get it from a train ticket agency and add five or ten yuan.
Wang Cuiping said: "Ningning has already booked it. It's a little after 11 o'clock in the morning. It's just the money..."
Li Likun thought for a while and said, "When it's daybreak, I'll go ask the boss for it."
They have been working at this construction site for four months, and apart from some living expenses, their main salary has not yet been paid.
It adds up to about 50,000.
The family does have some money saved, but it’s all in fixed deposits.
The most important point is that they are worried that there is not enough money.
"Then I'll clean up..."
"Why are you still packing? Don't bring anything. Just take the money back. Boil some hot water and take a bath. Remember to buy two new sets of clothes when you get home, otherwise you won't have time to change and embarrass your son."
The last time I went back, I had no choice but to rush to the outside of the examination room as soon as possible.
This time is definitely different. I may not come back to work in the short term.
"Oh, okay."
Li Likun was squatting at the door, and from time to time he could hear the sound of Wang Cuiping and Xue Ning talking on the phone in the room.
Because Xue Ning couldn't sleep either.
While waiting for dawn, Li Likun smoked a pack of cigarettes at the door and resisted the urge to call his relatives.
Damn it, this kind of happy event has to wait until I get home!
It's too unreal now.
It was a little after five o'clock, just as the sky was getting light, and he went straight to the largest part of the shed, where the foreman lived with his sister-in-law.
Li Likun knew the foreman, and if you count a few generations back, they could be considered relatives.
The wages are excellent, but the payment will not be made until all the work is completed. Usually, they will keep about 10% of the salary and pay it when the next construction site starts.
The construction sites he organized were never short of people. As a foreman, he could earn two to three million yuan a year, making him one of the more famous bosses in the entire county. Otherwise, how could he bring his sister-in-law with him? His wife at home would have been furious.
Speaking of which, according to the Li family's seniority, the foreman has to call him uncle.
But that's a roundabout way. He was just a hard-working worker and had never tried to make friends.
Li Yijun is 36 years old. He had just gotten up and was about to go to the toilet and take a nap when he saw Li Likun standing at the door, which scared him.
"Uncle, why are you here? Didn't you give me the living expenses two days ago?"
He came over, took out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette and handed it to Li Likun.
It was soft Zhonghua cigarettes. Many people in the construction site came over from time to time to try to get a few, but Li Yijun never cared.
This little favor is nothing. How much money can it get?
As long as these people do their job well, he can easily earn hundreds of thousands more.
Li Likun didn't take the cigarette, but said, "Boss, I want to get some money to go home. My son Yangyang was admitted to university."
When Li Yijun heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Uncle, congratulations."
He actually knew Li Yang. Everyone on the construction site knew that Li Likun's son was making a lot of noise.
Getting into college? How good of a college can it be?
He continued, "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to pay you, it's just that the higher-ups haven't approved the money yet, and we have to wait until the work is done. How about this, I'll personally pay 10,000 yuan and transfer it to Brother Yangyang."
He wanted to keep Li Likun to continue working here.
After all, the real estate market is good now. If we finish building the house here sooner, we can quickly move to the next construction site.
Li Likun looked embarrassed: "I want to take all the 60,000 yuan, but don't worry, boss, even if I lose money, I will find someone to take over the work."
Li Yijun frowned.
Hiring someone else to do the work is less efficient, the quality is not guaranteed, and the cost is even higher.
"Uncle, you are making things difficult for me..."
It is impossible for Li Yijun to give the money. What if he pays all the money and Li Likun doesn't come back?
The money he lost due to the delay in construction is not something that can be compensated by just a few tens of thousands of dollars.
This has always been his strategy. While paying the full amount of money, he also has to keep a symbolic amount of money down and not pay too much during the construction period, so that the workers will not have no burden and suddenly run away.
The reason why he can earn so much is just two words: efficiency!
He can open three construction sites a year, while others are lucky if they can open two.
Li Likun said: "I have no choice. The train tickets have been booked and I have to leave at around 11 o'clock."
Li Yijun didn't expect Li Likun to be so determined this time.
Could it be that Li Yang did well in the exam? Was he admitted to a second-tier university?
He also said helplessly: "Uncle, I am now borrowing money to pay for everyone's living expenses. I really have no money left."
Li Likun knew what Li Yijun was worried about, so he said, "I will be back for a month. I promise to come back and continue working after a month. If Cuiping doesn't come by then, I will bring the third child with me."
Li Likun has a brother, but he is not honest at work and has been working on and off for years, so he cannot stay on a construction site for a long time.
When Li Yijun heard that he had to go home for a month, he became even more unhappy.
I decided to confront Li Likun directly, "Uncle, if you leave for a month, this job won't be your turn. To put it bluntly, Yangyang will need a lot of money to go to college in the future. Although I will reduce the salary a little, I will bring money home at the end of each year to settle with everyone so that everyone can have a good year. You and I have been together for so many years, and you know that everyone has their own job. If you leave this time, I can't guarantee that there will be a position for you when the next construction site starts."
Li Likun certainly knew this problem, but he had to go back, he had to go back!
Even if you can't get the money back!
"Then can you deduct 10,000 yuan and give me 50,000 yuan first?"
Li Likun also gave up some conditions.
Anyway, just take as much as you can.
Li Yijun said in embarrassment: "Uncle, have you really decided? Do you really want to go home?"
"Yes, I have to go back! I have found some work, and I will come to do our work during the day."
Li Yijun sighed, "Okay, okay, forget about the work. Those people are working too slowly. I'll just let others take over first."
Li Likun knew that this was a way to drive people away.
But compared to his son's big deal, he doesn't care now.
"The wages..."
"Uncle, I don't have much money right now. How about this? When the bank opens, I'll go get 20,000 yuan for you, and I'll send the rest to your home at the end of the year. How about that?"
Li Likun opened his mouth, but in the end no words came out.
"Okay, thank you boss for that."
Twenty thousand is fine.
"Then you go back first, uncle. I need to sleep for a while."
…
Li Likun left, and Li Yijun returned to the room. The young woman on the bed said, "Who is it? Why are you here so early in the morning?"
"Li Likun, he said his son got into college and he wants money."
"His son?"
"Hey, it's just an excuse. Maybe he doesn't want to work here anymore and is looking for something to talk about. Everyone knows his son's character. Now it's not like before, there are college students everywhere."
"Did you give it to me?"
"Isn't all my money with you? When the bank opens, withdraw 20,000 yuan for me. Li Likun will regret leaving. If I wasn't afraid that these fellow villagers would dig up my ancestral graves, I would learn from other foremen and make hundreds of thousands more a year."
"He's about to leave, why are you still being polite to him?"
"It's not like I'll suffer any loss if you say a few polite words. Hurry up and move to another place... I want to get some more sleep..."
…
Li Yijun didn't know how long he had slept. In a daze, he heard someone calling him.
He opened his eyes and saw that it was his sister-in-law.
"Yijun, hurry up and get up. There are a bunch of reporters outside."
Li Yijun was suddenly awakened.
Why are there suddenly reporters in this shitty place?
Could it be related to the investigation of migrant workers?
According to the standards, there are very few construction sites in the world that are qualified. Even he, a foreman, has no place to go to the toilet.
I glanced at the time and it was just past eight in the morning.
He quickly put on his clothes and asked, "What's going on? How many people are here? Are you investigating something?"
The woman said, "I don't know. I was just about to go out to get the money when I saw that the shed was blocked. Those reporters with long guns and short guns seemed to be blocking the door of Li Likun..."
"Um?"
The first thing Li Yijun thought of was, could it be that Li Likun reported him because he did not agree to settle the money in the morning?
But on second thought, it didn't make sense. I had been polite enough, and Li Likun didn't seem like someone who would do such a thing.
"I'll go over and take a look. You should hide in the house. Don't show up, okay?"
