Looking at the two fierce-looking security guards, Lin Xiao suddenly felt that today was the end of him. He immediately admitted defeat and said, "Boss Jiang, I was really wrong, I was really wrong, please don't kill me, I was really wrong, I won't dare to do it again in the future. All the sand business on the road will belong to you, I don't want the brick factory anymore, I'll transfer it all to you, I'll follow your lead in the future, I'll do anything for you, please don't kill me!"
When Lin Xiao saw the two security guards holding a rope and a knife, he thought that Jiang Cheng was going to torture him. He thought that Jiang Cheng was going to tie him up, cut his throat with a knife, and then tie a stone to him and throw him into the lake.
Looking at Lin Xiao's frightened look, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but snort disdainfully and said, "I was wondering how powerful you were. It turns out that you're also afraid of death. Well, since you're so afraid of death, I'll spare your life. I'll give you three days to prepare five million yuan and send it to my desk. After three days, if I don't see your check or your people, don't blame me for being rude!"
After that, Jiang Cheng turned around and left. Zhang Jian, Xiao Bai, and Zheng Xiaohu hurriedly followed Jiang Cheng's footsteps. After a while, the security guards and the gangsters also left, leaving only more than a hundred bald men lying on the ground and wailing.
Lin Xiao looked at his lackeys behind him and saw that none of them were unscathed. Their bodies were either covered in footprints or red marks from being beaten. Lin Xiao looked at his lackeys and couldn't help sighing. He knew that he had failed today. Tomorrow, his name would spread throughout the world, and he would become a laughingstock for others.
A mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating one's own strength, was used to describe people like him. He thought that he was so powerful that he dared to challenge the boss of the underworld. As a result, he was slapped hard in the face by reality and became a big joke.
.....
After dealing with Lin Xiao, the three trucks at the entrance of the construction site soon disappeared. The three trucks were originally hired by Lin Xiao's motorcade to block the entrance. Now that Lin Xiao had lost the battle, the drivers had already slipped away, and the vehicles had already driven away.
Without cars blocking the gate, the trucks carrying sand, cement bricks, and steel bars could finally enter the construction site smoothly. However, it was getting dark at this time. The trucks could not start working after transporting the cement bricks into the construction site. They had to wait until tomorrow to start working again.
Jiang Cheng had dinner at the construction site. The dishes were cooked in the cafeteria, and the rice was cooked in the cafeteria. Jiang Cheng and Luo Fen sat at the head of the table in the simple cafeteria. In front of them were two bottles of Jiangnan's New Eight Proof Beer.
Jiang Cheng held a glass of wine in one hand and a pair of chopsticks in the other. From time to time, he toasted with a few migrant workers. At first, the migrant workers were quite reserved. After all, this was the first time they had eaten with such a big boss. He was the chairman of a group, while they were just migrant workers with a shovel. Their social status was far inferior.
However, after a few glasses of beer, the farmers became more relaxed because they found that the young chairman was not afraid at all. He even occasionally told them jokes.
This time, Luo Fen picked a few migrant workers to accompany them for dinner. Other than two who were slightly older, the rest were all young and strong. Among them, there was one migrant worker that Jiang Cheng was not very interested in. His name was Xu Yiming.
The reason why Jiang Cheng was interested in him was that Xu Yiming was different from other migrant workers. He wore glasses and dressed differently from other migrant workers.
When other migrant workers came to dinner, they either wore work clothes or casually changed into short-sleeved shirts. However, Xu Yiming wore a white shirt and washed his hair. With the glasses on his nose, he looked like a knowledgeable person.
Jiang Cheng asked Xu Yiming, "What did Brother Xu do in the past?"
Xu Yiming put down his chopsticks and replied shyly, "Chairman, I used to work in an office. I was involved in planning!"
This answer surprised Jiang Cheng. He did not expect that there would be a knowledgeable person in his team of migrant workers. This made Jiang Cheng very curious. He could not help but ask curiously, "Then why did you come to the construction site to work as a migrant worker?"
When Xu Yiming heard Jiang Cheng's question, he could not help but touch his nose awkwardly. Then he replied awkwardly, "To find myself!"
Xu Yiming's answer was very simple and direct. Jiang Cheng could not help but be slightly surprised. He could not help but ask again, "Did planning make you lose yourself?"
Xu Yiming nodded. "When I was a planner, although my income was not low, I worked overtime every day and night. I was very tired because of the mutual deception of the people in the workplace. Life has already worn away my passion. I hope to find myself through the ascetic life of the construction site."
Xu Yiming's words made Jiang Cheng feel very surprised. He could not help but ask again, "So what have you found here now?"
"I found the joy of life and got rid of the 15 kilograms of fat on my body. Chairman Jiang, to tell you the truth, before I came here, I was a big fat man. My current figure is the result of working here for a few months." Xu Yiming said with a smile on his face.
Jiang Cheng could not help but feel a little interested in a person like Xu Yiming. At first glance, this kind of person was not a quiet person. This kind of person was born to like challenges. He believed that this job as a migrant worker was not the end of his life. He still had a lot of ways to go in the future.
Jiang Cheng suddenly felt that it was too wasteful for people like him to stay on the construction site. If there was a good opportunity in the future, he could give this kind of person a chance because they had a strong fighting spirit.
At this time, Xu Yiming also opened his mouth to say something that surprised Jiang Cheng. He said, "Chairman Jiang, you are the only rich person I have ever seen who is willing to eat from the same pot!"
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but laugh. "Don't tell me that rich people can't eat from the same big pot? I think today's food is very good. Manager Luo, who is the chef today? Call him out and let me see him! "
When Luo Fen heard this, he quickly got up and went to find the chef. After a while, he came back with two women with slightly yellow skin. Luo Fen pointed at the two and said, "Chairman Jiang, these two are the aunties who cook. They are responsible for the meals of all the workers on the construction site!"
Jiang Cheng looked at the two aunties who were cooking. They were still wearing aprons. Although there were some oil stains on the aprons, it could be seen that they were quite clean. They were also wearing sleeves on their hands, and they looked very neat.
Jiang Cheng was very generous and praised the two aunties, saying, "The two aunties' cooking is very good. It suits my taste very well!"
Jiang Cheng spoke with a smile, which made people feel very close to him. It was the first time for the two aunties to meet such a big boss. The chairman of the group was a very rare noble person. Now that the chairman praised their cooking, the two aunties were so excited that they did not know how to answer.
Luo Fen was still experienced with these people. He waved his hand to let the two aunties go first, but he was stopped by Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng asked the two aunties, "How many meals do you have to cook a day? How much does the construction site pay you?"
At this time, a woman boldly said, "We are responsible for lunch and dinner. President Luo gives each of us 3,000 yuan a month, including food and accommodation!"
Jiang Cheng nodded and asked again, "Then I gave an order today that the wages of all the workers on the construction site will be increased. Did yours increase?"
Hearing this, the two aunties immediately nodded and said, "It increased, it increased. President Luo gave each of us 300 yuan!"
"It's not me, it's President Jiang. I don't have the right to increase your wages. It's President Jiang who understands your hard work, so he increased your wages!" Luo Fen, who was standing on the side, quickly added.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's President Jiang, it's President Jiang. Thank you for your concern, President Jiang!" The two aunties hurriedly corrected themselves.
When Jiang Cheng heard this, he nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Luo Fen did not slack off. After receiving the documents about the salary increase, he immediately told the workers.
Jiang Cheng asked the two chefs to leave first, then turned around and asked Luo Fen, who was behind him, "What do you think about the salary increase?"
Luo Fen frowned and said, "President Jiang, to be honest, it's not impossible to increase the wages, but our construction site is not like those people who work in high-rise buildings. The workers only get paid if they have something to do. For example, if it's a sunny day today, they can get a day's salary if they work for a full day. However, if it rains in the morning and they work in the afternoon, they can only get half a day's salary. Therefore, we can only increase the daily wage, because many of the workers are paid according to the daily wage, except for these two aunties. They have to cook every day, so I increased their wages by 10%. President Jiang, do you think this is okay?"
Luo Fen asked Jiang Cheng cautiously. After all, although it was Jiang Cheng's order, he was the executor. He still had to ask Jiang Cheng about these things. If the increase was not acceptable, what would he do if the chairman was angry?
Jiang Cheng did not say much. He only said, "Do as you see fit. I'll leave Sixth Construction to you. I'll give you another three months. You must finish this construction site for me!"
Jiang Cheng gave a strict order to finish the construction in three months, then left with his people. It was already late. Qin Qin, who was working overtime in the group, had called him several times to urge him to come back and pick them up from work.
Jiang Cheng also remembered that there was still a person he was supposed to protect in the group. His father had ordered him to stay close to her and protect her.
