Chapter 131 Repair the embankment 2
After eating and drinking, the crowd gradually dispersed. Feeling dizzy, I was ready to go back. At this time, Ba Yao pointed to the two legs of lamb placed in the basket. I didn’t understand what they meant. He waved.
.I leaned over and he whispered a few words in my ear.
It turned out that I was asked to deliver two legs of mutton to Secretary Li and the head of Jiaxiang respectively. Fortunately, they both live in the township government compound. When I was in trouble, I gave the legs of lamb to the two leaders' families respectively.
When they sent it, their wife was polite and accepted it. After successfully completing the task, she came back and saw Ba Yao instructing people to divide the remaining mutton and lamb tripe. He also gave me a bag.
When eating mutton, you have to consider all aspects. I think this is indeed "tiring". But Ba Yao said that although these things are trivial, it is often easy to offend people on these trivial things. He also said
He said that we should try our best to take care of everyone's needs, even if they are small workers lighting fires, they still have their dignity and should give enough face to others.
We chatted while walking, some of which were listened to, and some of which were blown away by the wind. When we got to the highway, I asked Ba Yao to take the bag of mutton back. He said that he wanted to go to the county town to blend some meat, so he would not take me with him.
Meet me at the bridge early tomorrow morning. After meeting, you will take me to get familiar with Ha's work.
When I got home, I cooked the mutton and my brothers ate it very happily.
At night, I couldn't sleep. I had never managed anyone before, so I couldn't help myself. I thought about it for a while, and then fell asleep.
Soon it was daylight again. I got up and made some hasty meals. Then I rushed to the bridge to wait for the eight o'clock. Who knew that after waiting, it would be three strokes after sunrise.
When I was bored, he came.
I hurriedly went up to say hello. Ba Yao said: "Are you feeling comfortable? I'm sorry. I drank too much last night, so I stayed in the county town, and I just came here now."
Me: "It doesn't matter. It's just a little cold in the morning, and it will feel comfortable once the sun comes out."
Ba Yao took me up the embankment of the river. As we walked, he asked me: "Why do you think we need to build the embankment?"
I was stopped by his question. I thought I had never thought about this question. However, I still answered him according to my imagination: "Because the river embankment has been washed away. If it is not repaired, the farmland beside the river embankment will be washed away."
Destroyed, what will people eat if they have no fields?"
He smiled and did not make any comments on my answer. He just said to himself: "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi."
I didn’t understand this sentence accurately, and I didn’t know what he meant by this sentence at this time. So I didn’t answer his words. He continued: "Actually, building river embankments is just a project, a 'business'. The floods
Destroying river embankments is a natural law. The power of nature cannot be defeated by humans. And the farmland that has been washed away is only a small number. Except for the people whose farmland has been washed away, no one else will care."
I don’t understand what his intention was when he said these words. I just vaguely felt that his words seemed to make some sense, but something seemed wrong, but I just couldn’t figure it out, and I couldn’t think it through.
Unknowingly, I came to a relatively large washed-out river embankment. There were already some people gathered there. I guess they might be the workers who came to repair the river embankment, right?
Sure enough, a boss-looking man inside saw Ba Yao coming and hurriedly came to greet him.
Ba Yao: "Tie Zhu, please call everyone over."
Tie Zhu turned around, clapped his hands, and then shouted: "Everyone, come here quickly, Boss Hu has something to say."
The crowd gathered around.
Yao Yao: "I called everyone out today, and everyone knows what I mean. This year's river maintenance has begun. Let's work together to finish the work before the Chinese New Year, and get the money back before the New Year's Eve for the Chinese New Year."
Everyone: "What should I do if last year's wages haven't been paid yet?"
Ba Yao: "Please understand this matter. It's not that I, Hu Ba Yao, took everyone's money and avoided everyone on purpose. I have nothing to do. The project payment has not been paid, and I have no money to pay everyone. Let's borrow it first.
The money I gave everyone was all my own money, and everyone knows this. Everyone wants to know, have I, Hu Ba Yao, ever treated that person badly?"
At this time, Tie Zhu spoke up. "Everyone understands Boss Hu, even if he complains. Everyone understands each other. Then is it true that you said you received the money before thirty?"
Everyone: Yes, yes. Everyone is waiting to earn this money and live a good year.
Yao Yao: "This is true. The leadership has changed this year, and the new Director Chen is very upright. I was drinking with him last night. He patted his chest and promised me that only if everyone completes the project,
Pay immediately after acceptance. Their accountant also said that there will be enough money this year, so there is no need to worry about arrears."
Everyone: Did Director Chen talk about the previous project funds?
Yao Yao: "I am more concerned about this than everyone else. I asked him about it, and he was told that the situation is not very clear just after he came here. I need to come down and study it. It's just that people said this, what should I say? I don't know.
How dare you force others to study it?"
Tiezhu: "Boss Hu, who is this little brother?"
Yao Yao: "By the way, this is my nephew - Mu Yi. From now on, he will manage everyone here on my behalf. You must listen to his command and obey his management. You can tell him if you have anything.
If it can be solved, I will solve it for everyone. If it cannot be solved, let me know. Tie Zhu, you have to take care of him more."
Tie Zhu nodded and said loudly: "No problem."
I shyly said to everyone: "Please pay more attention to me and help me. This is my first time doing project management. If there is anything I don't understand, please give me your advice."
Then, Ba Yao briefly explained the project requirements and asked me to go with him.
I asked: "Don't you need to stay here?"
Ba Yao: "Let Tiezhu lead them to complete the project. We don't need to stay here. You can come and visit from time to time, mainly to check the progress of the project. As long as it is completed before the Chinese New Year, we will do the math."
Me: "What about cement?"
Yao Yao: "You only need to observe for a few more days and you will understand."
