Chapter 1 Dilemma

The southeast coast of China.

Ninghua City, thanks to the spring breeze of reform and opening up, has become a world-class metropolis as early as ten years ago.

Dongshan District belongs to the old urban area, and it is the key area for the renovation of the old city. There are construction sites everywhere.

Liege is in the sky, the sun is like fire.

Song Yun picked bricks up to the fifteenth floor. A truckload of bricks cost 300 yuan.

"Crap! This is so powerful! A load of bricks weighs hundreds of pounds, right? Carrying it upstairs, you don't walk at all, but trot. Is this someone here?"

"I counted it just now. I didn't take a break at all. It went up and down more than ten times. This is the fifteenth floor!"

"Is this the legendary humanoid monster?"

"Look at the tendon on this kid, the pieces are like iron lumps, it's terrible!"

Song Yun quickly attracted the attention of other workers, and they started talking about it. He ignored it and worked hard. The wages were fixed. If you finish the job earlier, you will receive your money early, and carry bricks. Compared with the previous work in the quarry The work should not be too easy, you must know that there is no machine, and you can directly use a hammer and iron to harden the mountain.

Song Yun picked up ten load of bricks in one breath, and stopped to take a breath. The gun machine was demolishing an old building with five or six storeys next to it. The long mechanical arm was raised and nailed to the roof of the small building.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The gun machine roared, spraying black smoke, the small building could not hold it, and the roof cracked.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the small building collapsed, a gust of wind blew up on the ground, and a cloud of smoke rose into the sky like a dragon. The place 20 to 30 meters high exploded, covering a radius of several hundred square meters, and the surroundings were suddenly dark as night.

"Shit! What the hell is this?"

Song Yun was originally standing to watch the excitement, but the moment the building fell, he was so frightened that he was so scared that a monster with the face of a sheep suddenly appeared from the smoke and dust in the sky and rushed over. Roaring with his mouth wide open, he bites at the head.

Song Yun's eyes darkened, as if he had entered a chaotic world, time stopped, his consciousness was confused, and he didn't know what was going on.

"Are you alright kid?"

Song Yun came back to his senses, and a big man stood in front of him.

"fine!"

"What's the matter?"

Song Yun calmed down and shook his head.

"I saw you standing stupidly and motionless just now, thinking you were smashed!" The big man pushed Song Yun, "Go further, don't get so close!"

Song Yun nodded and turned to continue working.

This is how the same thing?

Isn't there a monster?

Where did it go?

Song Yun continued to move the bricks, but he was thinking about the monster that appeared in the smoke just now. He raised his head and looked at the sky. The scorching sun was hanging high, and the construction site was like a steamer. Er Jing, there is no shadow at all, what happened just now seemed like a dream.

"Am I wrong?"

"Dazzled?"

Song Yun shook his head a few times, but there was no discomfort at all.

"What!"

"What the hell is wrong with you kid?"

"hurry up!"

"Waiting for it!"

The foreman yelled.

"it is good!"

"understood!"

Song Yun shook his head, concentrated on his work, and stopped thinking about the monsters. After an hour, all the bricks in the truckload had been moved, washed his feet, and walked to the foreman.

"Brother, do you still have work to do?"

Song Yun asked with a smile while accepting the three hundred-yuan Red Bull.

"No!"

The foreman shook his head.

"The construction site is so big, should people still be needed?"

"I don't have high requirements. Fifty a day, food and shelter will do. Can you count me as one?!"

Song Yun didn't give up, and hurriedly spoke again.

"Are your ears deaf? I say no means no!"

Foreman Pig glared at him and said viciously.

"Good good!"

"Brother, can you add a WeChat, and call me when you are alive in the future, I'll be there whenever you need me!"

Song Yun took out his phone while talking.

The foreman slapped the phone that was stretched out in front of him.

"Special!"

"Add your head!"

"Four-legged pigs are hard to find, and two-legged people are everywhere. Do I need to find someone to work? They are all waiting in line! Get out of here, don't go to the canteen and eat it, give it to me I found it, break your hand!"

The foreman cursed angrily, drooling all over the place.

Song Yun picked up the phone that fell on the ground, shook his head helplessly, turned and walked out of the construction site.

Song Yun saw a water faucet, so he ran over quickly, soaked his hair, filled his stomach with water, and found a shady place to sit down. It has been three months in Ninghua City. I originally thought that with all my strength, I would be able to find a job at the construction site no matter how bad it was. It would not be a problem to support myself, but the reality was extremely cruel. I can do odd jobs. The longest one is five days, and the shortest is only half a day. In fact, the construction site is not without work or lack of people, but now they are recruiting workers through some dispatch company. No, if you can have an introduction from a fellow countryman, things will go a lot smoother. The problem is that your village is in the deep mountains and forests, and there are only a few people in a radius of hundreds of miles. In a big city with a population of tens of millions, you want to find such people. , It was so sad to go to the sky, maybe he was the only one who came out of that deep mountain and old forest.

"This is how to do?"

Song Yun sighed and froze in a daze.

How to do?

I have no choice but to keep looking until I find it.

Song Yun rested for a while, stood up, and walked to the next construction site.

Night falls.

Street lights come on.

Song Yun carried a canvas bag and walked aimlessly. After leaving the construction site, he continued to look for a job. He went to seven or eight construction sites, but still found nothing.

Song Yun stopped on an overpass and looked around, there were many tall buildings in the distance, the lights were brilliant, and the wide road and cars came and went, extending like a Milky Way to the endless horizon, like a street market in the sky.

"Is there a place for me here?"

Song Yun was confused for a while. He came out of the remote village. He thought he could make some money with his strength, but after half a year, he couldn't even find a stable job. It is half a day, the longest is three days. When I have time to live, I can barely fill my stomach. I have not lived for several days. I am so hungry that my chest is on my back. Not to mention where I live. The shop, in order to save money later, simply dealt with it for one night at the bottom of the overpass.

"Brother, Dad and Mom let me ask you, are you okay outside!?"

Song Yun's phone rang, took it out and saw that it was a WeChat message from her sister who was in high school. For some reason, her nose suddenly became sore, and tears almost came out.

"very good!"

"I'm shopping with my colleagues now!"

Song Yun rubbed his eyes, thought for a while, then took another photo of looking down the road from the overpass and sent it over.

"Wow!"

"So beautiful!"

"This is a big city!? I really want to see it!"

Song Yun looked at the information on WeChat and was stunned for a moment.

"When my brother makes money, please come and play, eat deliciously and drink spicy food!"

Song Yun rubbed his eyes, and took a while to reply to the message.

"elder brother!"

"I want to eat McDonald's!"

"I want to play the Ferris wheel!"

"I want to eat Haidilao!"

...

Song Yun really couldn't help it now, the tears he had just held back came out again, and rolled in his eyes. Things that are common to these urban children are all the imaginations of rural children about the city.

"it is good!"

"no problem!"

"We can eat what we want, and drink what we want!"

Song Yun took a deep breath, calmed down, and returned the message solemnly.

"Great!"

"Brother, remember what you promised!"

"You go shopping with your colleagues and talk later!"

Song Yun held the phone and looked up. The sky was so gray that he couldn't see a single star.

"come on!"

"effort!"

"Be sure to find a job!"

Song Yun shook his hand hard and swore secretly that for the sake of his sister's dream, he must survive in this city.

"Can't roll around on the construction site anymore, change place."

"Go to a small restaurant tomorrow, or go to a building material market or something like that."
