It's over, it's over, Zhang Qiang broke into a cold sweat. He had just boasted in front of Hua Yutong that he would repair the bridge in Haikou within half an hour.
Now that the crane is broken, he doesn't have the ability to do it not to mention half an hour, even half a day.
As the saying goes, take people's money to eliminate disasters for others. He received Hua Yutong's 10,000 yuan, and he had to do the same thing for 10,000 yuan.
"Cousin, how long will it take to repair this crane?" Zhang Qiang asked impatiently.
"I'm contacting the manufacturer now, and the estimate will take four hours at the fastest. I'm unlucky today to take this order," the driver said helplessly.
Zhang Qiang hurriedly walked down the river from the opposite side, then climbed up again, panting, came to Hua Yutong, and took out 10,000 yuan.
Wang Gensheng saw this and took out another 10,000 yuan: "Zhang Qiang, don't you have enough money? I'll give you another 10,000 yuan, but ten minutes have passed, you'd better hurry up."
Zhang Qiang shivered and said with a sad face: "Brother Wang, the crane is broken. It is estimated that the bridge will be difficult to repair this morning."
"Zhang Qiang, you are now Brother Wang. Let me tell you, whether the crane is broken or not has nothing to do with you building the bridge." Wang Gensheng said coldly.
"Brother Wang, why doesn't it matter? How can the beam be pulled up without a crane?" Zhang Qiang said cautiously.
"Zhang Qiang, it seems that the ten thousand you charged was not for the crane. Just now the village chief said that the cost of the crane was twenty thousand." Wang Gensheng said disdainfully.
Not long ago, Shi Zhenzhen told Wang Gensheng that the crane was a machine that was about to be scrapped. Shi Zhenzhen had seen it in the county town a few days ago.
It belongs to the brother of a best friend of hers. If it is used to lift something of several hundred kilograms, it can barely be used. If it lifts more than a thousand kilograms, the machine will be scrapped.
So Wang Gensheng took advantage of the situation and gave Zhang Qiang an extra five thousand yuan.
"Brother Wang, can't I just give the money back now?" Zhang Qiang asked in a low voice. The proud look he had just now was gone.
"What a joke, my sister Hua and Zhenzhen are still waiting to return to the city. Otherwise, they will give you 10,000 yuan.
Even if you have to carry it, you have to carry it to the bridge pier." Wang Gensheng said firmly, the matter of pretending to be scary the day before yesterday was not over yet, and there was a blackmail today.
Seeing Wang Gensheng's determination, Zhang Qiang suddenly sneered: "Wang Gensheng, I can carry it, but you have to put one end of the beam on my shoulder!"
Everyone laughed immediately. It was estimated that more than a dozen people would not be able to lift such a heavy beam. Wang Gensheng was stumped by Zhang Qiang.
Unexpectedly, Wang Gensheng smiled again: "Zhang Qiang, you are still a man, and you must keep your words."
Zhang Qiang was also happy and said with a smile: "I don't mean what I say. As long as you can get the beam onto my shoulders, I will carry it up."
"Zhang Qiang, this is what you said. You have your uncle from the Zhang family here now. If you regret it, what will you do?" Wang Gensheng reminded coldly.
"As long as you get it on my shoulder, I will pick it up and leave." Zhang Qiang smiled proudly.
In his opinion, the person in Taoyuan Village who wants to compete with him in a battle of wits has not been born yet. Even if his brother Zhang Fan, who lives in a row house, has entered high school, he is no match for him.
"Zhang Qiang, don't be ridiculous, this is not a joke." Zhang Tiezhu scolded quickly.
Of course, Wang Gensheng cured his wife's long-standing illness last night, and he also wanted to say something for Wang Gensheng.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Qiang laughed and said coldly: "Uncle, I am making money legitimately, and I am not robbing or stealing, so just leave it alone."
"Zhang Qiang, your uncle is right, return the money to Miss Hua, and we will think of another way." Zhang Tiedan said from the side.
That day, he fell ill and was saved from death thanks to Wang Gensheng's treatment. Although he was not grateful to Wang Gensheng, he felt that he could not offend Wang Gensheng.
"Uncle, you are afraid of Wang Gensheng. He can cure diseases, but regardless of whether he can cure diseases or not, we have to be honest." Zhang Qiang said proudly.
Wang Gensheng looked back at Hua Yutong and said with a smile: "Sister Hua, I think it will take a lot of effort to give him another ten thousand."
Everyone laughed, including Zhang Qiang. Wang Gensheng asked Hua Yutong to throw the money into the water.
Who has the strength to lift the beam onto Zhang Qiang's shoulders?
In order to prevent Zhang Qiang from going back on his word, Wang Gensheng specifically asked Zhang Qiang to sign, and the village chief certified it.
In addition, Hua Yutong was asked to give Zhang Qiang 10,000 yuan.
There is probably no one in this world who doesn't like money. Of course, there are only fools and babies.
Wang Gensheng looked at Zhang Qiang and confirmed again and again: "Zhang Qiang, don't go back on your words. I know that your Zhang family is very powerful in Taoyuan Village.
But you just said that you have to follow a principle in everything. Once you get the money, you must fulfill your promise."
"Wang Gensheng, I must fulfill my promise. If you don't have the strength to get on my shoulders, don't blame me for being greedy for money." Zhang Qiang said coldly.
"Zhang Qiang, I really want to use high-voltage wires to play a requiem for you. You are looking for death. I have no choice." Wang Gensheng sighed.
"Wang Gensheng, you are stupid enough to give me money. If I don't accept it, others will accuse me of being as stupid as you. Remember, these days, you rely on your brain to make a living, not your strength." Zhang Qiang laughed.
"Oh, I'm just too strong and there's nothing I can do. Just wait, it'll be fine soon." Wang Gensheng said with a smile.
While talking, he took a pickaxe and a shovel from a villager and rushed down the river.
The river was filled with sand and pebbles. Wang Gensheng wielded a pickaxe and started digging vigorously. No one knew what he was doing.
I saw sparks flying up. After Wang Gensheng dug, he used a shovel to shovel. In less than a few minutes, he actually dug a pit more than one meter deep.
For the convenience of getting up, Wang Gensheng specially dug steps to go up.
After rushing up from the river in a few steps, Wang Gensheng pulled Zhang Qiang down.
Everyone also followed Wang Gensheng down, and then they saw clearly that it was a pit more than one meter long. It was dug neatly, and there was not a single rough edge.
The river is full of rocks. To be able to dig out such a pit in just a few minutes is not a myth, but a miracle.
Wang Chun looked at Wang Gensheng and asked in a cold voice: "Gensheng, why did you dig this hole?"
"Uncle Wang Chun, didn't Zhang Qiang just say that he could carry the beam by putting it on his shoulders? Now he is standing here, and we all use our strength to lift it.
I will definitely be able to get it on his shoulder, and at least give him a chance to prove that there are capable people in Taoyuan Village." Wang Gensheng said calmly.
Zhang Qiang broke into cold sweat again. He never thought that Wang Gensheng would come up with such a method.
