At this time, Village Chief Wang brought about a dozen villagers from Dongyu Village, including Wang Afu, Wang Jiabao, and Ahu, who were sipping wine, chatting and eating food in the tent.

"You all sit, you all sit, you should eat and drink, don't worry about me!" Liu Xing said with a smile.

"Are you here to look for me?" Village Chief Wang laughed, picked up the dry pipe on the table and walked out of the tent.

Liu Xing followed behind.

Under a dark brown boulder.

Village Chief Wang stopped in his tracks: "If you have anything to say, just ask."

"Why are we divided into two groups for dinner now? What happened during my absence?" Liu Xing sat casually on the cobblestone beside him.

"Mr. Liu didn't tell you the inside story?" Village Chief Wang smoked a pipe.

"If yes, can I ask you?" Liu Xing smiled wryly.

"Hey! Then let me tell you, if it wasn't for your sake, I would have fired all those foreign craftsmen a long time ago." Village head Wang didn't have any taboos in front of Liu Xing, and the conversation started immediately: "One week after you left, Mayor Zhuge came to me and asked me to send some people to Southwest Mountain to build a simple bamboo bridge. It only needs to be managed for a month."

"I agreed at the time and asked Xie Fei to take the lead in the construction. As for the salary, I didn't ask too much. After all, the mayor Zhuge took the lead in this matter, so it should be indispensable. Who knew that Xie Fei was with the mayor Zhuge After taking the wages, I took a dozen or so craftsmen from other places and asked me for the lost wages, I was furious at that time, scolded Xie Fei a few words, and from that moment on, this Liangzi followed."

"Delayed wages? Xie Fei is usually quite honest! Was he instigated by someone?" Liu Xing said with a frown.

In his impression, Xie Fei rarely talked when he was in the workshop of bamboo products, but he was a good hand at doing things. Xie Fei was the first to come every day, and Xie Fei was the last to leave.

If it wasn't for coming to Xiangxi to build a bamboo bridge, he would still have thought of promoting Xie Fei to be the team leader!

"If you ask me, I don't know what's going on, but I later met Mayor Zhuge and asked about lost wages. Guess what Mayor Zhuge said." Village Chief Wang smiled wryly.

Liu Xing listened with bated breath.

Village Chief Wang sighed softly: "He said that Xie Fei brought more than a dozen craftsmen to pay him a total of more than 7000 yuan in wages. Calculated according to the number of days, the average is more than 300 yuan a day. Under the circumstances, they still want lost wages, which is shameless!"

"When this happened, why didn't you tell me immediately?" Liu Xing frowned.

"I want to say it! But you were preparing for the high school entrance examination at that time! I was afraid that you would be distracted, so I suppressed it, and it has not been delayed until now." Village Chief Wang smoked the pipe again: " During this period of time, I also understood why Xie Fei asked me to pay for lost work. It turned out that on the Southwest Mountain, someone asked him to build a simple bamboo bridge. The unit price was very high, but it was a private team. Lin's."

"That is to say, Xie Fei asked you to pay for lost work, but he actually wanted to find an excuse to leave and go to the Southwest Mountain to help Lin build a simple bridge?" Liu Xing couldn't help laughing: "Grandpa! You did this thing No, why didn't you let Xie Fei go away?"

The environment on the Southwest Mountain is much worse than here, and poisonous insects and beasts are infested. This Xie Fei actually wanted to go to Southwest Mountain to build a simple bamboo bridge for money. This is too long!

"Can I let Xie Fei go? Once he leaves, he will take away more than a dozen craftsmen from other places. At that time, no one will ask you for it. Wouldn't it be troublesome for you? So I have been looking for it until now. The excuse is to suppress the wages of Xie Fei and a dozen other foreigners, because they are afraid that they will disappear the next day after they get the money." Village Chief Wang replied helplessly.

"I know you are doing it for my own good, but now that the construction of the bamboo bridge has come to an end, so many people are not needed, and some work has to be done slowly, so when you go back next time, thank you for all the wages." Fly them! If they want to leave, don't stay." Liu Xing smiled and expressed his opinion.

"Okay! If you don't have enough manpower, I will ask you for it when I look for it!" Village Chief Wang said repeatedly.

"Yes!" Liu Xing nodded.

Originally, he wanted Village Chief Wang to recruit local craftsmen to help in Xiangxi, but he thought that Xiangxi is now at the peak of economic construction, and he might not be able to recruit people at all, so he gave up this idea.

"That's it for now. I'm going back to eat. As for Xie Fei's matter, I will do it when work is over in the afternoon!" Village Chief Wang patted Liu Xing's shoulder, turned around and left.

Liu Xing didn't stay there either, and went back to find Peanut to visit the bamboo bridge.

Chapter 424 The Second Form of the Bamboo Bridge

In the wide open space on the west side of the cliff.

Many craftsmen are sitting around to rest and chat.

Little Peanut and Qianqian were also playing on the sidelines, happily poking the ant nest with a twig.

When Mr. Liu saw this scene, he didn't bother him. After eating, he got up with Deng and went for a walk.

And at this moment, Tang Tang brought a little boy about seven or eight years old to Qianqian: "Have you seen Little Fatty's parents?"

What Xiaopangdun was talking about was the little boy brought by Tang Tang.

"It seems to be back." Qianqian replied with some uncertainty.

"What can I do when I go back at this point?" Tang Tang was a little anxious: "Forget it, don't care about them, if you have nothing to do, help take Xiaopangdun, just don't let him walk around, I have to make herbal tea!"

"Sister, Xiaopangtun is older than me, why should I take him?" Qianqian said dissatisfied.

Little Peanut on the side was also a little reluctant.

After all, the little chubby man in front of him is very stocky, and he will be honest enough to be fine, if he is not honest and runs around, who can stand it!

"As long as you want to take a look, I didn't ask you to do anything else, so I insisted on it!" Tang Tang didn't care if Qianqian answered or not, after giving Qianqian a white look, she went straight away, and she had to go .

There is no way, it is a hot day in six volts, and the herbal tea is consumed quickly. If she doesn't prepare more, I'm afraid Village Chief Wang will talk about her again later.

Qianqian looked at Tang Tang going away, feeling very helpless.

The same goes for Little Peanut, who lost all interest in stabbing the ant nest.

Seeing the little fat man staring at the toffee in her breast pocket, she quickly covered it: "What are you looking at, this is for me by my brother, not for you."

"Brother Peanut is also my brother, hum!" Qianqian raised her head.

"Cut! It's great to have a brother! I also have a brother, and he gave me a bag of toffee last time!" Little Pang Dun couldn't help but counterattacked.

"My brother gave me 1000 yuan for the New Year's Eve, do you have it?" Little Peanut didn't believe that Xiaopangdun's brother was as good as her brother. After rolling his big eyes, he said angrily.

"What is this? My brother gave me a bicycle during the Chinese New Year. Do you have it?" Little Fatty countered again.

There is obviously something wrong with what he said. He is bragging. After all, he is only seven or eight years old. How could his brother give him a bicycle.

However, Little Peanut didn't notice it: "This bamboo bridge was built by my brother, can your brother do it?"

"This..." Little Fatty hesitated for a moment, and then boasted: "Although my brother can't build bamboo bridges, my brother can build roads. Most of the roads in Xiangxi are built by my brother. Can your brother do it? "

"Hmph! Of course my brother can do it. Not only can he build roads, but he can also make bamboo products that can fly. Can your brother do it?" Little Peanut lost his temper when he saw that Little Fatty refused to admit defeat.

"You just blow it up! There are no flying bamboo products in this world. Let me tell you, my brother can touch fish in the river and hold his breath in the water for an hour. Can your brother do it?" Little Pang Dun said. Time is also exciting, for him, who can brag, anyway, it is not against the law.

This time it was Little Peanut's turn to be anxious, and was about to retort, but was pulled away by Qianqian: "We don't talk to him, we're just bragging, if Brother Pangdun can hold back in the water for an hour, then it's no good gone."

"Hee hee, that's not bad!" Little Peanut was amused.

When Little Fatty heard this, he stopped Qianqian and Little Peanut angrily: "You two are bragging! Let me tell you, my brother is very good. He dares to eat anything in our mountains in western Hunan, like Caterpillars, snot fruit, and wild boar feces have all been eaten, has your brother eaten it?"

"My brother dares too" Little Peanut opened his mouth to speak, but was covered by Liu Xing who rushed over.

Liu Xing couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't say it's okay, let's admit defeat and go visit the bamboo bridge."

It would be really embarrassing if Xiao Huasheng said that Xiao Pangdun dared to eat feces.
