Chapter 730: I'll Try to Endure It

~7 min read 1,309 words

When Wang An walked out of the office with the approval slip, he found that only Wang Li was standing where everyone had been standing before.

Wang An's heart was shocked, and he immediately ran toward Wang Li, shouting as he ran:

"Why are you the only one left? Where are my second uncle and my father?"

Hearing Wang An's shout, Wang Li immediately walked over and said: "They led my father and my uncle to the warehouse, saying that loading the vehicle is slow, so they started loading first. Let's go over too."

Upon hearing this, Wang An instantly put his heart at ease. The main thing was that Wang An thought Wang Dazhu and Wang Daliang had been arrested by someone.

Wang An nodded subconsciously, and while following Wang Li forward, asked:

"Where did that arrogant kid who I beat up go? Where was he taken?"

Wang Li said casually:

"Don't know where he was carried by the person beside him, maybe he went to treat his injuries."

Wang An nodded but didn't take it to heart.

Because for the Wang An of the past, things like him beating someone else or someone else beating him were as simple as eating and drinking, not worth mentioning at all.

Although the current Wang An had reduced the number of fights, it must be admitted that in the Northeast, where the folk customs were relatively fierce, fighting among ordinary people was also a very normal thing!

You must know that the sentence "If you can do it, don't argue" originated from the Northeast.

Besides, this era was truly good, because fighting and brawling were basically not cared about by anyone, and almost everyone thought it was normal.

Most importantly, neither side of the fight would move to find the police to solve it.

Whether you win or lose, just let it go after fighting; anyway, you have to carry it yourself.

After Wang Li finished speaking, he said with some worry: "Fourth Brother, you beat that kid into that state, won't he find someone to retaliate against us?"

Wang An glanced at Wang Li and said with a very flat tone: "Bragging, he's not scared to death. This was just in the cement plant, so I didn't dare to do it too hard. If this were outside, I would definitely have made him unable to get off the bed for half a year. Damn, I've lived this long and this is the first time I've met someone who dares to ask me for a benefit fee."

When he said the last two sentences, his face had become full of ruthlessness, like a wolf waiting to eat people, full of danger.

Hearing Wang An's words, Wang Li immediately lost his worried expression. The main thing was that in Wang Li's eyes, Wang An was invincible in this regard, and he didn't tolerate anyone.

As they spoke, Wang An and Wang Li walked to the warehouse door, and the workers Wang An had stopped before were currently carrying cement to the vehicle.

As for Wang Dazhu and Wang Daliang, and the other two workers, they were standing on the vehicle stacking cement bags.

Cement in this era was packed in cowhide paper bags, not like later generations, which were packed in plastic woven bags.

It's just that the cowhide paper bags for cement weren't one layer, but three or four layers.

Of course, it wasn't just cement that used cowhide paper bags; many other things, such as white sugar and brown sugar, also used cowhide paper bags.

So cement in this era was quite comfortable to carry; at least because of the multiple layers of packaging, cement powder wouldn't fly everywhere, so it wasn't that choking.

Seeing Wang An and Wang Li come over, someone who looked like a warehouse keeper greeted them and said with a genuinely kind attitude to Wang An: "Brother, did you get the slip? I need to keep a record here." Wang An first handed the ticket to him, then took out a cigarette and handed it over, asking while handing the cigarette: "8 tons in total, how much is loaded now? Almost there, right?"

This warehouse keeper said while looking at the quantity on the ticket: "Yeah, almost there. The amount you want is also appropriate; if you wanted more, these two vehicles wouldn't be able to hold it."

Wang An nodded and smiled, not answering.

It must be said that this group of people loaded cement very fast, each carrying two bags at a time, which was 200 jin, and they walked back and forth like flying, not delaying any time at all.

After checking the ticket and seeing his father and second uncle were busy, Wang An didn't act coy and turned to Wang Li:

"Let's go, let's join in too. We can't just watch."

Buying things in this era, there was actually no such thing as helping to load the vehicle; anyway, it was you give me money, I give you goods, and then it was settled.

As for how you transport the goods away, that's your own business, and they have no obligation to help.

Because the person who sold you the goods took a dead wage, no matter how many goods were sold, they wouldn't earn even a cent more.

So the service quality in this era was very poor, which could be explained.

And the reason this group of workers helped load the vehicle was simply because they were afraid of Wang An's identity as a hooligan.

Besides, Wang An wasn't bad; he let Wang Li give them each a Classic Bingcheng cigarette, which could barely be considered a reward.

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li agreed, and the two brothers joined the team carrying cement.

And this scene was seen by a group of workers, who seemed quite surprised. Maybe in their impression, hooligans and gangsters were people who didn't do any work and only knew how to fight.

Soon, 8 tons of cement were all loaded onto the two vehicles, and the tires under the cargo beds of the two vehicles were also obviously deflated.

Wang An scattered another round of cigarettes to the workers to express his gratitude, and then left with Wang Daliang and the others.

After walking out of the cement plant courtyard, Wang Dazhu raised his voice to scold Wang An: "Xiao An, why is your temper so violent now? Why did you do it as soon as you said? Can't you beat them even if they have so many people?"

Upon hearing this, Wang An smiled:

"This is just the beginning. Father, I'm telling you, I've already changed a lot. If it were the original me, I would have put that kid in a sack. Asking for money from us, he's truly tired of living."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dazhu said with a gloomy face: "Are you capable? Are you vicious? Don't you know what 'there are people beyond people' means? Besides, what if they attack from behind?"

It must be said that what Wang Dazhu said was very reasonable, because in this world, one never lives by being fiercer.

And "open guns are easy to dodge, hidden arrows are hard to guard against," no one can guarantee that they will always be foolproof.

Upon hearing this, Wang An blinked and nodded: "Yeah, then I'll try to endure it in the future."

To tell the truth, this cement purchase was truly a bit tooth-aching; it was originally a simple matter, but he had to run into an idiot and create some small twists and turns.

Hearing Wang An actually soften his stance, Wang Dazhu, who was originally very angry, was stunned for a moment, then gave Wang An a white look and stopped talking.
