Master Qingshan saw that he had already entered the sect, so he told Xiang Wentian that he was leaving. The old man collected garbage for a living. He wanted to find a disciple who could accept his legacy here. His wish had been fulfilled, and there was no meaning in staying here. The old man wanted to live in another quiet place.
Xiang Wentian was very reluctant to part with him. Although the old man was not of much help to him in terms of city life, if he had the old man's guidance, he would definitely benefit a lot. Moreover, after spending so much time with him, the old man had indeed treated his last disciple as a family member. He had strict requirements for learning martial arts, but his life was relaxed.
The master wanted to leave, but the disciple didn't say anything. This made him feel even more sorry. Qingshan could see it and said with a smile,"It's nothing. We're master and disciple, and we don't know when we'll meet again in the future. You still have to worry about this. Besides, based on Master's opinion of you, your future development will not be limited to the present. You have to remember one thing, no matter how you become, you have to be lenient to others and be strict with yourself. This is the breadth of mind that we martial artists should have at this time, and it's also the prerequisite for your cultivation to make progress.”
After his master left him, Xiang Wentian continued to practice. This was the way to maintain one's health. Sometimes, he would also teach a little to the people in the dormitory. However, not many people were willing to learn. Everyone came out to think of ways to earn money, not to Shenzhou to learn kung fu. Moreover, this kung fu was obviously not something to eat.
It had been a while since the National Day ended, but they still hadn't seen Little Boss. Some people felt uneasy. There were rumors at the construction site that Little Boss was hiding from Shenzhou. The person in charge of the construction site was only a manager who was usually in charge of the construction site, but he didn't care about the payment at the construction site.
During the National Day holiday, the little boss said nicely that he wanted everyone to work overtime and speed up the completion of the construction site. As long as the construction site was completed, the boss above would naturally come over to check and accept. Once the inspection passed, everyone's wages would naturally be settled.
The wages that were owed during the Mid-Autumn Festival, plus this month's wages, meant that everyone had to pay at least two to three months 'worth of wages at the construction site. Even Xiang Wentian and the others who had only been here for two months had their salaries from the previous month in the account book.
The people were uncertain, so they didn't work actively. Everyone waited patiently. It was almost the end of the month, but they still didn't see Little Boss. At this moment, everyone couldn't help but stop working. They ran to the manager in charge of the construction site business and asked why the manager had said that Little Boss would come some time ago. Why wasn't he here today? Should they still pay this month's salary?
Knowing that he could no longer hide it, the manager said with a sad face,"Everyone, not to mention that you don't have a place to get your salary, even I don't know where to get my salary this month. Originally, the boss said that he would come back at this time and asked me to be in charge of the construction site. Who knew that he wouldn't keep his word?”
The manager didn't even know where Little Boss was. The construction site was in danger. In this day and age, there were many cases of black-hearted workers cheating their wages. It could be heard almost every year. Everyone was worried and cursed. The Tianzhou fellow villagers in the dormitory were in an even worse mood. If they even wanted to cheat their own fellow villagers, what good could it be?
The big black man lay in the dormitory listlessly. Everyone was tired of scolding, but they still had no clue about the matter. They could not get their salary by scolding people. They were simply asking for trouble.
Brother Monkey still remembered Little Boss's kindness and guessed that Little Boss couldn't take it anymore. The last time he paid his salary, he used his own money to pay for it. Could it be that his second boss or something didn't pay Little Boss the due project funds, causing Little Boss to have no money to pay us, so he avoided us?
The dark-skinned man was in a hurry to use money this year. The woman who came back last time was his partner from his hometown. They had agreed to get married during the new year and needed a lot of money. Now that he had lost his salary for the past few months, wouldn't he have to fight a famine? He was angry and scolded," What a son. Even his son doesn't have an asshole. He's blackmailing his family's money. I don't think he'll come home during the New Year. Otherwise, I'll go to his house to ask for his salary even on New Year's Eve. It won't be so easy to run away."”
"Blackie, you want to ask for money from his house? Wasn't he dreaming? He had not lived in the village for a few years. He had already bought a house in the county. Where were you going to wait? Once the door was closed in the city, it didn't matter where you squatted. It was none of his business.”Someone who knew the situation said.
"He closed the door? I don't believe it. He doesn't want to go out? I've been blocking his door all day. I don't believe that I can't stop him. When I catch him, I'll let him know that my fists are powerful.”The big black man was furious. If Little Boss was in front of him, he would probably eat his fill.
"Don't nag about things that are far away. Now that we're all here, what should we do? Could it be that everyone was just waiting here? We are the ones who should be fighting the famine.”Someone shouted anxiously.
The dark-skinned man looked at him. This time, the dark-skinned man really regarded him as his boss. If he asked for anything, he would do it without any discount, just like the yellow-haired man. Now that he encountered such a big matter, he naturally watched what his boss should do. The yellow-haired man had been watching him for a long time, planning to do whatever he said and follow his boss without wavering.
When the dozen people saw the big black man looking at him, Brother Monkey and the others quickly placed their hopes on Xiang Wentian, who could be considered an expert among them. After all, he was a scholar who had seen the world. Moreover, his abilities were not something that anyone here could compare to. The weak getting close to the strong had been the law of history since ancient times.
Xiang Wentian didn't expect everyone in the dormitory to look at him. It was as if it was an inevitable and accidental rule in the development of history. It seemed that he couldn't avoid doing something, but he couldn't figure out what effect it would have on him. Times created heroes, and when it was his turn to appear, he could not avoid it. He did not pay attention to the situation and put it aside. He thought about it and said,"From the looks of it, finding Little Boss isn't something that we can find. I reckon that he already has a plan. I'm afraid that if he wants to get our salary back, he'll have to reason with the government.”
"Find the government? "That won't do. What does the government have to do with us? If we don't do it well, the government might be unhappy and put us in jail. Where can we get our wages? We might not even be able to get out."”Some people were worried that the government would come forward to settle the arrears of wages. Some places were still exploring, but there were not many at the moment. Naturally, there would be people who were afraid to fight. Since ancient times, the people had never fought with the government.
"Looking for the government? We're not going to cause trouble. We're going to report the problem and ask the government to help solve it. After all, this is managed by the local government. It was better to go home and sell sweet potatoes than to be an official and not make decisions for the people. Who said this? We'll look for the officials to reflect the problem clearly. It's better than not reflecting at all.”Xiang Wentian had a higher level of understanding than these people and guided them patiently.
Everyone nodded unconsciously and felt that what he said was not unreasonable. It seemed that the government should make decisions for ordinary people like us, but they did not know if the government was willing to deal with us who worked in other places. People all relied on the local government to protect their places. They were afraid that if they were biased, not only would they not get paid, but they would also be implicated.
Thinking about this, there were probably not many people who wanted to clearly reflect the problem. Xiang Wentian took the initiative to write the report materials and went to the government to ask for an explanation. First, he had to explain the matter clearly. Only then would the officials have the time to deal with it and deal with it. We went there with good intentions. We definitely couldn't let the government think that we were causing trouble. Impression was important, but doing things methodically was also indispensable.
It was said that the only people who were waiting for the salary here were the small workers. Some of the master-level figures had not only worked at this construction site, but some had already found other places to work. It was not easy for these small workers to do these wages. They especially valued this money and thought of ways to get it back.
Not many people could stand out. The materials he wrote were naturally the first to stand out and talk to the government leaders. Huang Jin, Brother Monkey, and the big black man followed. Everyone felt that since they were looking for the government to report the problem, it would not look good if there were too many people. They did not want the government to have any other ideas. If there were too few people, it would not be enough to strengthen the formation. In the end, they considered only the few of them as representatives and explained the problem with the materials clearly.
When they passed by the Wanli District Party Committee, they all said that the district party committee was closed to the government, so it was better to report the problem to the district party committee. Moreover, the document stated that it was the district party committee and the district government, so there was no need to report to the government. Xiang Wentian agreed. This was the truth. The district committee was the real boss in the local area. The government was just a unit under the leadership of the district committee.
Xiang Wentian, who had worked in the government before, was very familiar with the way things worked. The person who received them at the district committee's petition office was a young man. He couldn't make a decision, so he politely invited them to sit down and immediately called the leader. After putting down the phone, he said that the leader would come over soon. He just had to explain it to the leader.
The leader was none other than the woman that Xiang Wentian had peeked at countless times, the beautiful woman who resembled Sally. As soon as the beauty appeared, Xiang Wentian fainted. The dizzy Xiang Wentian couldn't remember anything else, but this was the first time he heard the name of a beauty. He couldn't call her by her full name because the young man called her "Director Xiao". Director Xiao was so young, so Xiang Wentian panicked and didn't know what to say.
Until the beautiful leader asked in a friendly voice,"Are you the ones who came to the district committee to report the problem?”
Seeing that he had completely lost his mind, Huang Jin, who was sitting at the side, was worried that he would be frightened. He quickly reminded him softly,"Wentian, the leader is asking you a question.”
Xiang Wentian rolled his eyes. At this moment, Director Xiao also had an impression of him. Wasn't this the madman? He was just a part-time worker? He was a little clear-headed and wanted to say something, but he did not expect to say something like this."Ah, you're Xiao, Xiao Yinqiu?"
The beautiful leader probably didn't expect him to say that, nor did she expect him to know her name. She was a little surprised. Was she here to reflect on the problem or to do something?"Yeah, you know? Did you write all the materials here?”
" Director Xiao," Brother Monkey answered on his behalf," Brother Xiang wrote all the information on this paper on behalf of us. It's all the truth. There's not a single lie."”
Xiao Yinqiu picked up the document and looked at it carefully. There was a rich but not full character on it. It was refreshing. He was curious about the madman who took the lead to report the problem. Normally, a peasant worker could not write such a high-level document. The words on it were orderly and the facts were clear. However, the matter that the government needed to solve was not so simple.
After reading it, Xiao Yinqiu slowly pondered and said,""Xiao Xiang, there's no problem with that, right? I've read what you said above. I know that the government will definitely investigate the problem of your construction site's salary arrears since it's within its jurisdiction. However, from the problems you've reported, I don't know if you know how many companies are involved.”
Xiang Wentian didn't have the brain to think at this time. He could only hear it from the side. The others probably didn't know it very well. Even if they knew it, it wouldn't be as useful as the other party's leader saying it. They all listened quietly. Only then did they know that the construction site they were at was a construction site that had been subcontracted through layers. When Little Boss got it, four or five owners had already done it. No wonder Little Boss couldn't even give them a salary easily. They didn't have the right to speak.
Xiao Yinqiu promised that the government would look for relevant people to understand the specific details of the matter. If they could find a solution from the bosses, it would be best. If not, there was only one worst way. Find the little boss who hired you and let the little boss take responsibility. If this matter really couldn't be solved, they could call the public security department to find someone.
Even the leader had resolved the matter so diligently. Xiang Wentian and the others were so grateful that they were about to cry. They could only nod their heads as they sat there. None of them had thought that if it was really as Leader Xiao said, they would still have to wait for an unknown period of time before they could get their salary. Unfortunately, at this moment, Xiang Wentian's mind was filled with nothing else. He was only listening to Leader Xiao's words like he was listening to music. He did not have his own thoughts. He felt that Leader Xiao's words were true and there was no need to consider them.
Even Huang Jin, who was at the side, muttered to himself. Wasn't Xiao Xiang very thoughtful at the construction site? They had thought that by sending him as a representative, the problem would be resolved. Who knew that Little Xiang would lose his mind the moment he saw the beauty? He could only nod and not speak like them. What was going on?
The few of them bid farewell very politely. Huang Jin couldn't help but complain. He said that if he reacted like this, what could he do? As a leader, would he forget about it? Brother Monkey also felt that it was too hasty to reflect the problem like this. He was dismissed by the leader with a few words. He couldn't be perfunctory, right? He didn't have any complaints about Brother Xiang.
Xiang Wentian was still immersed in the shocking meeting with Xiao Yinqiu, so he didn't refute. Only when they asked him did he casually say,""Then tell me, how should I reflect the problem? To reflect, wasn't it just to talk to the leader about this matter? Did he need to fight with real weapons? We all have to be polite when dealing with the government, so we have to speak politely, understand?”
The few of them immediately fell silent. They had nothing to say. It seemed that he knew more about this matter. It seemed that this was the reason. What else could they say? However, Truth did not want to stand on the side of a few reasonable people. After waiting for a few working days, there was no movement from the government. However, a government worker came to take a look at the situation and indeed saw a large group of people wandering around the empty construction site. Everyone was unwilling to leave empty-handed and wanted to take something away. Other than reinforced concrete, there was nothing else that people could carry on the construction site.
The few of them went to report it again, but it was not Leader Xiao who received them. It turned out that the district committee's petition office had leaders on duty. The last time they came, they happened to meet Leader Xiao. This time, it was a leader in his forties and fifties. He was a man with a lot of bearing. When he heard that they were reporting this problem, he immediately picked up the notebook in the office and looked at it."Director Xiao Fu has already dealt with your problem. Look, there are two ways to deal with it. One is to coordinate with the relevant personnel at the construction site to discuss and solve your salary problem. The other is to report it to the district government and let the district police station investigate this little boss. I think the police station has already helped you find that little boss. Ah, this matter can only be resolved like this. Go back, go back. This matter can't be resolved in a day or two. You have to wait patiently, right? The government wasn't a god. It was impossible for them to come up with a solution in an instant.”
Comparatively speaking, Xiang Wentian had lost a small portion of his men compared to Hei Zi and the others. Who asked them to come in such a short time? Blackie and the other old family members in Tianzhou suffered a lot more losses. Everyone trusted their hometown people. Not only did they pay the deposit, but the construction site was short of money and not enough to pay their salaries. Most of the money was short for them. Thinking about it, this little boss was really black-hearted. How could these hometown people still have trust in him? There was no need to use fancy moves. Just use them in a practical manner.
