Chapter 47: I'm in the dark

Gong Suren's brick factory is located in the winery, and the winery is just a place name, located between Yong'an Town Street and Xiaopingxi. There was indeed a winery here that brewed local corn wine, but that was more than 20 years ago.

"Several tutors, come on, smoke a cigarette, quickly install bricks for me, and now it can be opened to traffic outside!"

Cao Wu smiled and handed cigarettes to several workers who had made bricks, then squatted aside, drank the mineral water in one go, and took a gushes of cigarettes very readily.

Li Gang's car finally drove away outside, and there was no car parked at the door of the brick factory in the past two days. Cao Wu and Gong Suren were of course happy.

Gong Suren is in business and his daily output is limited, but even with limited output, he cannot transport the bricks out yet. It is really depressing. Now he finally has no car called by Yang Tianyou to make trouble, so Gong Suren is of course happy.

Cao Wu is just a cargo driver, so he only earns some transportation fees. If the car at the end is stuck in the brick factory every few days and cannot get out, of course he is also anxious.

Several workers earned money for coolies, and they had no bricks to pay every day, so their income was reduced. Now they have finally opened traffic. In fact, it doesn’t need Cao Wu’s instructions. They will also try their best to spend more bricks to get more wages.

Gong Suren came out of the office and happened to see Cao Wu squatting there and chatting with a few brick workers. He smiled and said, "Cao Wu, come up, come up!"

Cao Wu agreed with a smile, ran to the office above. As soon as he sat down, Gong Suren took out a bottle of Red Bull from the refrigerator and threw a pack of cigarettes for Cao Wu. He smiled and said, "You can go to the office to sit down. What's the matter with squatting outside?!"

"Brother Ren, you are too polite. You always make cigarettes for us. We are a little embarrassed to do this." Cao Wu smiled, but he still put away the cigarette.

"You can't say that. We are all brothers. Thanks to you this time, you came up with this idea. Yang Tianyou didn't come to cause trouble. We can make money. It's so satisfying. If I had known this, I would have asked someone to steal the tires!" Gong Suren said with a smile.

Cao Wu suddenly restrained his smile and said, "Brother Ren, although this matter was not done by us, it has nothing to do with us. Now the people from the Friends Association and all the people sent to investigate this matter. Only the two of us know about this matter, so don't tell it out, otherwise the trouble will be a big deal!"

"That's it, that's it. We are our own brothers. If I continue to say it in front of outsiders, then I'd be really stupid!" Gong Suren nodded and said.

Cao Wu said again: "It's really strange. Yang Tianyou hasn't found anyone to cause trouble for us these days. What do you think he is doing? Logically speaking, according to his personality, he will definitely not give up. This guy is just a scoundrel. I think this matter is not over yet. You should be more careful about him, so as not to come up with despicable means to deal with you. You can't use common sense to measure such villains. He is used to using any means."

"I know this, but now I don't know what he has to do. We can only wait and see if it changes. No matter how you say it is, it's normal business competition. He can't ask someone to smash my brick factory. Besides, he really wants to play tricks with me, so I can only go to the county government to sue him. If the county doesn't solve it, I won't come back and squat in the county magistrate's office every day and don't leave!" Gong Suren frowned and said fiercely.

Cao Wu smiled and said, "It's okay, let's fight now and prevent the water and soil from flooding. No matter what means he has, we will slowly resolve it. I don't believe that he can still cover the sky with one hand. If he asks you to close the brick factory, you will not be able to. If he has the ability, he will give you 100,000 yuan a month, you will be locked, haha!"

"Not to mention 100,000, I would be willing to close the brick factory for 60,000. I have saved a lot of energy to deal with him. But people like him can't give me such a high price!" Gong Suren said with a smile.

"Haha, that's not necessarily the case. If he continues to fight like this, he can't get any cheaper. If it really doesn't work, just invest some more money to make the brick factory bigger and stronger, and also have a daily output of 100,000 bricks. I think how he can compete with you." Cao Wu said with a smile.

Gong Suren shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not a joke. My brick factory has only invested about 300,000 yuan per day. If I really want to produce 100,000 yuan per day, I have to invest more than 500,000 yuan or 600,000 yuan. How can I make so much money? Even if I can take it out, my mountain farm here is not wide enough. Besides, Yang Tianyou is actually right. The market in our Yong'an Town is only so big. If I can produce 100,000 yuan per day, the market will probably not be big enough. By then, the bricks cannot be sold and the money will be invested, and then it will be a big loss."

"I don't understand this, haha!" Cao Wu handed a cigarette to Gong Suren.

Gong Suren pulled the topic apart and suddenly asked: "How is the business recently?"

"It's not bad. My customer is in Seoul. The price is pretty good. The road is too bad. He can't pull a few trucks of sand and stone every day. He wants to use materials again tomorrow, and has urged me for many days. You see, I haven't been able to pull bricks for him these days, so I'm so anxious to pull bricks for him today. Otherwise, he'll have to call again. But I haven't got a penny yet. I promised to pay the payment for the goods in one lump sum. I've paid more than 10,000 yuan for the material. Oh, it's not easy to do in our industry!" Cao Wu sighed.

Gong Suren said: "You are not alone in placing the material money. All drivers are operating like this. What a bitter thing you call it? Haha, okay, if you have no money, tell me anytime, it will be convenient for several thousand yuan at any time. Don't be polite to your brother."

"If Brother Ren said this, I am grateful to be a brother." Cao Wu laughed.

The two chatted for a while, and a worker who had made bricks yelled below.

"Master Cao, the bricks are ready!"

Cao Wu stood up and said goodbye to Gong Suren. He really couldn't afford to take the blame. He ran downstairs, handed cigarettes to several workers, and immediately poured out the car.

Running on the main road, Cao Wu lit a cigarette, turned on the car music on the car, humming a small song, and looked comfortable.

But he didn't notice that he was following a Geely car not far behind his car, and the car was Xiang Yanming, and the ones sitting in the car were Xiang Yanming, Yang Tianyou and Niu Wazi.

"Yang Tianyou, do you really want to do this?" Xiang Yanming was still a little hesitant: "Cao Wu and Zhang Jian are relatives, and Zhang Jian is from our Friends Association. When he is in love, I always feel a little disgusted with his face."

"I'm afraid of being a football, let me do things that offend people. You always care about the past and the future, but do you still make money? If the brick factory makes money, you also have bonuses. Ge, please stop talking about those things. Do whatever I ask you to do. If you don't believe me, what's wrong?" Yang Tianyou cursed with a smile.

Niu Wazi smiled and said, "Brother Xiang, just listen to Brother Tian. Anyway, he is the boss, so he will do whatever he says."

"That's right, I'm the chairman, I have the final say, haha." Yang Tianyou smiled strangely.

"You sister Dong looks like this, I'm still the general manager. Besides, your chairman is not qualified to transfer my truck. My truck is not from a brick factory. Besides, I'm not your driver, I'm a sage!" Xiang Yanming cursed.

Yang Tianyou smiled and handed a cigarette to Yan Ming, saying, "Stop talking nonsense, where is your truck, is it full of sand?"

"It's ready." Xiang Yan Ming said.

"Then let Cao Wu go to Seoul first, and we will drive and follow us quickly. By the way, Niu Wazi, you will bring you poker later, buy some snacks, and so on, and then you will bring some money. You will not be allowed to owe any debts at that time!" Yang Tianyou smiled and began to arrange tasks.

...

Desert Seoul, also known as Desert Sea Mountain, is said to be the king of Hanzhong, and recruited people to pacify the "Three Qins". Prime Minister Xiao He stayed in Bashu and provided military food. He used this as a base to store grain and station troops, defeated the King of Western Chu, destroyed Chu and promoted Han, and won the world, so it was named Desert Seoul.

However, time has changed, Seoul is now deserted, with steep cliffs around it, old stone fortifications, mottled moss, and stone-carved poems that appear from time to time, silently telling the longevity of time, witnessing the rise and fall of dynasties and the rise and fall of personnel.

Seoul is also a famous scenic spot in Yong'an Town. Yong'an Town now claims to build the Red Army City, and this Seoul is an indispensable part because the Red Army has been stationed in Seoul, and Red Army Hospitals, county governments and other institutions have been established.

Many people have taken a fancy to the future development of Seoul and are willing to build a house on this mountain. A chopstick road leads to the top of the mountain. The so-called chopstick road is actually a cement road, but it is only five meters wide. There are weeds on both sides of the road. The actual width of the road is only about four meters. The width of one meter in the middle has not been made into cement road. In order to save money, cement is only laid in places where the tires may pass. So from a distance, it looks like two white chopsticks. Therefore, locals call this kind of road the chopstick road.

This kind of road surface is a very test for the driver's driving skills. If you are not careful, you may trap the tires in the mud ditch in the middle of the road surface. The road surface is also curved. In addition to having a spacious place for the car to be delivered every other section, if two cars hit the road, you can only go back and retreat to the place where the car is delivered to keep it open. Therefore, usually trucks who get into Seoul will press the horn from a distance to make it louder, so as not to get into the car on the road and make it difficult to get the car.

As soon as Cao Wu got on the chopstick road, he turned off the music and drove carefully. Fortunately, the road was smooth and he had good luck today, so there were no cars on the way.

After getting to the mountain and unloading the bricks for the customer, Cao Wu drove down the mountain without any rest. The customer said that he had to pull two trucks of bricks and one truck of sand now, otherwise he would not be able to start construction tomorrow.

Cao Wu lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly down the mountain. He drove an empty car much easier. This time he drove on music again and hummed a small song, which looked quite comfortable.

But his comfort didn't last long, so he cursed: "I'm a sage!"

After turning a corner, Cao Wu immediately braked suddenly. Not far ahead of him, a large truck loaded with sand and stone was parked on the road. In the open space next to the car, three men were fighting against the landlords in full swing.

Needless to say, these three people are Xiang Yanming, Yang Tianyou and Niu Wazi.

There was a stack of money in front of each person, several pieces of scrap newspapers were laid on the stone slabs, and three of them sat on the ground, lit cigarettes in their hands, beer next to them, and a lot of snacks, which looked like they were having a picnic. Cao Wu, who stopped brakes, simply ignored it.

Cao Wu's face became a little ugly. Although he was from Bixi Township, he also took salad bricks in Yong'an every day, so he naturally recognized the three of them, just nodding.

He is still anxious to pull bricks and sand for the customer. If the car is blocked here, it is really fatal. Moreover, when he thinks of Yang Tianyou, Cao Wu felt a little nervous, as if he is a little guilty. He jumped out of the car, ran to the three of them, frowned and said, "Brother Xiang, is your car broken?"

Xiang Yanming ignored it at all, threw out two two cards and shouted: "Haha, Yang Tianyou, I've reported the order to the second one. Hahaha, Niu Wazi, kill him and give it to me!"

"You are arrogant!" Yang Tianyou sneered: "I will kill you with one pair of kings!"

...

Seeing that the three of them were fighting lively, Cao Wu ignored him at all. His face became even more ugly, but he didn't dare to have an attack. He just took out a cigarette and handed it to all three of them. Then he sat aside and smiled and said, "Okay, do you still have the mood? Run to this wild mountain to fight for the landlord? He also brought so much food. Are you having a picnic?"

After the landlord fight, he raised his head to Yan Ming. His face was dirty with the oil, and his hands were covered with oil. He stared at Cao Wu and said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out it is Cao Wu. Oh, don't mention it. The car is broken. I can't repair it for a while, and I'm tired of repairing it. I asked Yang Tianyou and Niu Wazi to bring food to fight with me for the landlord!"

Cao Wu was stunned. Grandma, is it really a car breakdown? Or is it acting? If you say acting, don’t you have to make yourself look like this, right?

Yang Tianyou took a sip of cigarette, glanced at Cao Wu, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao, the business is good."

"Director Yang, what business does it have? This is all about making a living. What do you think you are sitting here and fighting landlords, and there are people who make money for you in the brick factory!" Cao Wu said with a little depressed smile.

Yang Tianyou nodded and smiled, "It doesn't exist, haha, why don't you fight too, Niu Wazi, let Cao Wu play a few games. Anyway, it's okay, I'm idle."

Cao Wu said laughing and crying: "I am still busy pulling salad bricks for customers, but I am not as leisurely as you. Xiang Yan Ming, why don't you take the car back and let my car go down!"

Xiang Yanming looked at Yang Tianyou, smiled embarrassedly, and said nothing.

Cao Wu frowned even deeper. He seemed to suddenly have a moving heart. He looked at Yang Tianyou, who smiled and said, "You have no problem with your ears? Didn't Xiang Yanming say that the car broke down and couldn't move!"

"Where is it broken? Isn't it fooling me?" Cao Wu's eyes flashed.

Yang Tianyou smiled and said, "Where did it break? It would be great if I knew where it broke. I didn't see the motor oil on Xiang Yanming's face. Anyway, I haven't found out where the problem is! As for whether there is any fooling, you can judge it yourself!"

"Then you call the car repair master!" Cao Wu was so angry that he couldn't repair the car well, so he couldn't just block himself here, right?

Yang Tianyou smiled and said, "I called. The car repairman went to the city to purchase goods. I can't come back today."

"What?" Cao Wu was startled: "Then how long will your car be parked?"

Yang Tianyou smiled sarcastically and said, "I don't know this. I may not be able to move today, but it doesn't matter. We are fine anyway. Fight Landlords, and we will go home if it's too late."

Cao Wu was so angry that he was about to vomit shit. Grandma, you didn’t matter, but I had a big relationship!
