Strange things I encountered on the construction site

Strange things I encountered at the construction site 1

This is a real thing, (not a story). That was just after the reform and opening up, and it happened around me.

Perhaps I was born not to eat public food or serve an iron rice bowl, so I followed the flow of migrant workers into the city and became an official migrant worker.

At that time, rural people yearned for the bustling city life, which was noisy and lively.

After my father begged me, Boss Cheng, who was working as a contractor in the city next door, reluctantly agreed to let me follow him because our family and their family had been neighbors for decades. Looking for a bowl of food on the construction site in Chongqing.

From then on, I entered the construction site.

Seeing that I had graduated from high school and was somewhat educated, he asked me to be a plasterer.

Later, he saw that I was still very good at getting things done and could help him write calculations, so he asked me to stay with him and let me take care of all the entertainment, reception, and inspections. He went up there, and slowly, I became his caring Douban. As a result, my name for him gradually changed: in public, I changed my name from Boss Cheng to Mr. Cheng, and in private, we called him Uncle Cheng.

Compared to those workers who can only sweat and drink on the front line, I have it easy. I organize labor, assign work, occasionally go to the construction site for inspections, and record the project quantities... . And I also have a more important part-time job, which is to often accompany Mr. Cheng on receptions. To put it bluntly, it means drinking with the supervisor or the leader of Party A or the on-site management. Mr. Cheng said that is called blending.

I was single at that time and had no girlfriends yet. I had plenty of time and a good drinking capacity. Mr. Cheng would call me most of the time when he was entertaining guests. When he was too drunk, he was like a frontline The commander waved his hand like he was fighting: Get on top!

I am like a sharp knife warrior who dares to charge into battle. I will win. Needless to say, as long as I'm here, I've never been defeated in a drinking game.

Once, in order to win a construction site, he arranged a banquet and invited the boss of Party A and the main on-site managers under him to dinner.

Maybe something really happened. If Chongqing was a large city with many hotels and restaurants, he had to arrange it in a villa dozens of kilometers away from the main city.

The villa was built by a private owner. It is said that the owner is the party secretary of a local village. At that time, Mr. Cheng was working on the civil construction part for him, and they went back and forth, and later the two became friends.

The villa is located in a beautiful mountain, roughly halfway between our hometown and Chongqing city. There is a road passing in front of it. That road is an important main road leading to eastern Sichuan. There is usually constant traffic. Many long-distance buses use it as a journey station, letting passengers get off the bus to smoke and use the bathroom. Add some tea or something to the tea.

From our hometown to Chongqing, at that time, apart from taking a steamer from the Yangtze River, the only way left was to take a bus to Chongqing. You can imagine how good the business of that villa was!

? Anyway, I accidentally met the owner of the villa once stuffing something into the bus driver’s bag. Anyone who understands knows what is stuffed into the bag………….

It makes sense for Mr. Cheng to arrange to entertain guests there. Because he was friends with the owner of the villa, he knew what kind of special food there was, what special things to do there... He was far away from the city and out of the sight of some managers.

Of course, I have to go.

At that time, mobile phones were not as popular as they are now. I would wear a beeping BB machine on my waist. When I heard the beeping, I looked at the number and found a public phone to call. I was Because of the need for work, Mr. Cheng specially equipped me with one, which I wore around my waist. When I returned to my hometown, I still felt very awesome.

Mr. Cheng had a mobile phone, which was called a mobile phone at that time. It was like a brick and was very big. An antenna was fixed on the nose of the phone. It could not fit in a trouser bag. It was usually either held in the hand at any time or put in it. Tote bag. If in the office, Mr. Cheng always leans back in his chair and the elder brother stands up on his desk, then B is pretending to be proud.

I was really envious of his style at the time. I imitated him in my dreams several times.

He came to my place early in the morning and told me with great interest: You have made arrangements for today and tomorrow. There is a very, very important thing that requires your cooperation tonight. Then I asked Xiao Wang (the full-time driver at the construction site) to drive the pickup truck to take you there.

I was about to ask where the big brother in his hand beeped loudly. He waved his hand to signal me not to speak.

He put his big brother on his face, covering his plump fat head. "Well, well, well, Director Liu, you don't have to worry about it. I have arranged everything. My car will pick you up in the afternoon. Don't worry about the rest. Well, okay, okay, okay, okay, yes, yes, yes" .

As soon as I heard it, it was about a dinner date.

At that time, the road from the construction site to the villa was not a highway, but an ordinary gravel road. In our professional terms, it was called a mud-crust road.

It took me about an hour and a half to reach the villa halfway up the mountain in the pick-up truck.

The villa is three stories high, with red bricks and green tiles. It is built against the mountain and is shaded by green trees. It is very grand. The big characters "Iron Mountain Reflects the Moon" on the roof must have been given by some poet, they are so powerful. In front of the villa is a concrete dam as big as a basketball court, with a table tennis table and a badminton court surrounded by green barbed wire. There are long flower stands on the left and right sides. The flowers are in full bloom at this time, making it a good place to spend the summer and enjoy the cool air.

At the front desk of the lobby, two young and beautiful girls are in charge of reception.

I said Mr. Cheng’s name, and a girl led me directly to the second floor and to a large private room. The private room was about thirty square meters, and a large round table was placed in the middle of the room. In the center of the round table was a large bouquet of flowers. You could tell at a glance that it had only been decorated recently. There are luxurious sofas, large TVs, tall wine cabinets, and everything you need in a luxury hotel.

Mr. Cheng has seen this kind of scene many times, and he no longer has the restraint and fear he felt when he first saw this kind of situation.

Please sit down for a while. Mr. Cheng may be here soon. The waiter said as he gave me a cup of tea. Before exiting, he turned on the TV for me.

Dining is not the main point. Let’s talk about the highlight of the matter so as not to waste everyone’s time.

Having enough food and wine is entertainment.

Under the leadership of the waiter, our group came to the dance hall on the top floor.

The neon lights flashed with the music, and the surrounding coffee tables were piled with fruits, snacks, red wine, beer, drinks, etc. Except for a few waiters, there was no one else in the hall. Judging from the layout, it must have been reserved.

Mr. Cheng said a few polite words, nothing more than asking everyone to drink, have fun, sing and have fun, and then accompanied Mr. Liu into a small private room.

There were about ten guests. I know two people who manage construction sites. Not only do they know each other, they have become old acquaintances.

I represent Mr. Cheng, so I started to relax. Ask the waiter to arrange a wine escort, pour the wine, and order songs.

With the reform and opening up, some "fashionable" things from the south were also introduced to the mainland, such as karaoke bars and dance halls that mushroomed in inland cities. Words are also constantly seeping into people’s lives.

At that time, those who were called misses were all women who were not working in the profession. Miss became synonymous with women who accompanied them to drink, sing, or even sleep with them in the city's nightlife.

The guests naturally fell into their own roles, ordering songs, looking for someone to drink and continuing to drink, punching fists, and the hall suddenly became lively.

Suddenly, all the lights in the hall were turned on, the music stopped, and under the leadership of the foreman, a group of beautifully dressed ladies wearing transparent tulle filed in and stood in a line in the hall. The foreman stood in front of the team and began to speak:

Tonight belongs to everyone. I hope everyone can play freely and have fun. Look at how beautiful they are tonight. How sexy, whoever you like, you can bring it with you...

I scanned the row of ladies very carefully, preparing to find two beautiful ones for the two Party A's on-site management.

Suddenly my eyes met a pair of eyes, and I was instantly confused...

My mind buzzed: Isn't that Cheng Xiaojia? My next door neighbor, Mr. Cheng’s brother’s daughter, Cheng Xiaojia, who we grew up playing with! ! !

I hurriedly turned around and stood up, walking to Mr. Cheng’s small private room.
