I have to talk about "Bao Qi" again. I once saw Zhihuang take a few people to work in a supply and marketing cooperative, building two houses.When the last tile was in place, Ben Yiyi arched out from nowhere to check the quality of his workmanship, kicking here and patting there.Suddenly his face sank, and he insisted that the rock wall was not leveled, and the pulp was too small to eat, so he wanted to stop everyone's work points. Zhihuang asked him to reason, saying how do you fabricate the past to make the present?I'm a stonemason, and I don't know how much mortar I have to eat to be suitable?

Benyi sneered, "Will you be the secretary or me? Is it you Huang Xingzi who will follow what he says, or my secretary who will follow what he says?" It seems that he deliberately made things difficult for Zhihuang. Others tried to smooth things over, pulled Zhihuang away, and spoke nice words to Benyi.Zhaoqing followed the secretary's buttocks, and when he saw him enter the latrine, he waited outside the latrine.I saw him go to the slaughterhouse and wait outside the slaughterhouse.I finally saw him coming out of the slaughterhouse smoking a cigarette, and I finally accompanied him to observe the cucumbers and peppers on the roadside, but I still couldn't turn his eyes back and look at Zhaoqing.

The supply and marketing cooperative rang the bell for dinner.Ben Yi excitedly geared up his fists, "Okay, let's go to Director Huang's room and eat turtle!" I couldn't hide the pleasure of elated. Before he left, there was a sudden sound from the newly completed warehouse, and the sound was a little irregular.Someone came to report in a hurry, saying it's terrible, it's terrible, Huang Bao is demolishing the house there.When Benyi heard this, he hurriedly gathered his energy and rushed over, and found that Zhihuang had indeed made a move, so he picked up the meteor hammer and slammed it against the wall by himself.

The new wall is like tofu.One end of the rock head has been raised, and the other is loosening, and the powder residue is falling down sparsely.Next to him was Lao Huang from the supply and marketing cooperative, and he couldn't hold his hand no matter what.Lao Huang saw Benyi, "Why bother? What's the trouble? Why don't you tear it down if it's well built! You don't care about your labor, I still care about my bricks. Do you know that four cents a brick?" Benyi coughed to announce his presence. Huang Bao didn't quite understand the meaning of coughing. "Huang kidnapper!"

Zhihuang looked at him for a while, but didn't respond. "What arrogance are you showing?" Benyi blushed to the base of his neck, "Whether to dismantle it or not, we have to wait for the cadres to study it... You have no say. Go back! You all go back with me!" Zhihuang spat into the palm of his hand, and picked up the rock hammer again. "I made the rock head on the ridge, I drove it to and from it, and I built the wall. I demolished my rock head, what's bothering you?" When it comes to Yantou, no one can explain the truth clearly to Huang Bao, and it is impossible to stop him from staring.Zhongqi stepped forward to help the secretary: "Huang Yazi, you can't say that. Yantou is not owned by the supply and marketing cooperative, nor is it yours. You are a member of the team, and the Yantou you hit is the team leader."

"Where does this come from? His dripping man is also on the team, and your wife is also on the team. Everyone can sleep well, can't they?" Everyone secretly laughed. Benyi was so angry that he didn't say a word, and it took a while for his chin that had slipped out of position to be pulled back to its original place. "Okay, you smash! Well smashed! Well smashed! I will not only deduct your work points today, but also punish you to scream pain! I won't fight with you, you don't know that the hammer is made of iron, and the pig woman is the ground." Running!"

Hearing that he was going to be punished, the situation began to reverse, and several people changed their faces, and stepped forward to drag and block Zhihuang.Someone stuffed shredded tobacco into his hand. "Why bother? If you have something to say, you have something to say." "Don't hurt anyone else." "If you cut the work points, you will cut the work points. What kind of house are you demolishing?" "I also have a share of this wall, so you can smash it if you say so?" :... With great strength, Zhihuang swung his shoulders left and right, throwing away the people on both sides: "Don't worry, I only want my rock head, and I won't touch yours."

This is practically nonsense.What he builds today are rocks, all of which are used as the foundation and foot of the wall.If the bottom is pulled out, can the upper wall still hang in the air? Benyi raised his hand and walked away.However, Zhao Qing, who followed behind him, came running quickly, and said with a smile that Ben Yi had already turned the corner, saying that there would be no cuts for work points, not for the time being, and the account would be settled later.The tension on everyone's faces relaxed.Seeing that Huang Bao had stopped hammering, he frantically repaired the rock he had just knocked off.

On the way back to the village, many people scrambled to help Huang Bao carry the tool basket, saying that if Huang Bao hadn't been present today, wouldn't everyone have been cleaned up by the old man dripping water?Can't you become someone on the chopping block?They shouted and hugged Huang Bao's flattery, "Huang Bao" and "Huang Bao" shouted non-stop.In my opinion, the word "treasure" has no derogatory meaning at this moment, and has returned to its true colors: precious.
