Early in the morning, Duan Mingjie came to the construction site and saw nearly 200 people.
Looking at the extra people, Duan Mingjie was not surprised, but he was hit by a huge surprise in his heart.
The premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't help but want to confirm it now.
Feng Wei and Lao Li came over, "Lao Duan, suddenly there were sixty or seventy people in the morning. They said they were also retired soldiers and wanted to join you. But I asked Song Zhijie and he said they didn't know each other."
Duan Mingjie nodded, "Let's work first, I'll go over and take a look."
With that said, Duan Mingjie walked towards the group of people.
The new group of people were similar to what Zheng Weiguo was looking for. They were all in their thirties and forties, and some looked to be in their fifties, but they were all very efficient at work.
These people have experienced war and can build walls without careful instruction. Most of them have done this when they were fighting for defense.
Duan Mingjie came to them and greeted them, "Hello."
A middle-aged man who looked to be forty years old stopped when he saw him. He motioned for everyone to continue working and came to Duan Mingjie's side.
"Are you Comrade Duan Mingjie?"
Duan Mingjie nodded, "Yes, you are?"
"I am Wu Sanjiu. We are your elder brother's old subordinates. Our brigade commander heard that you were encountering difficulties, so he asked us to come over. We happened to have nothing to do at home, so we came out to earn some money to support our family."
Duan Mingjie's eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat, "What about my eldest brother?"
Wu Sanjiu was stunned for a moment, "The team leader has died a long time ago. Are you Duan Minghua's younger brother Duan Mingjie?"
Hearing this, Duan Mingjie's heart suddenly sank.
It turned out to be his illusion, his delusion.
Seeing his expression darken, Wu Sanjiu pursed her lips, feeling a little unbearable.
Duan Mingjie took a deep breath and looked up at Wu Sanjiu.
"Thank you for coming to help me."
Seeing that he believed it, Wu Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's help each other. You gave us the opportunity to make money, which is better than just sitting at home."
Duan Mingjie was still immersed in disappointment, in a bad mood, and his voice was a little low, "Brother Wu, please help find two or three more capable people in the past few days. I want to promote a few people to take charge of the work."
He explained the conditions for receiving workers, and Wu Sanjiu immediately said, "No need to ask for help. I can do it myself. I can still manage so many people. Just pay me the wages. No need to outsource it to me. We will do it." Good job for you."
"That won't work, everyone is like this," Duan Mingjie said, "Brother Wu, just lead them and I will give you the treatment as a foreman. That's it."
Wu Sanjiu laughed, "Okay!"
At noon, Lu Yao and her classmate Xia Feifei came out after eating and saw Duan Mingjie standing at the door.
Duan Mingjie also saw her.
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment.
Duan Mingjie walked up to her.
Lu Yao: "Why are you here?"
And he didn't look very happy.
Duan Mingjie held her hand and said in a low voice, "I miss you."
Lu Yao's cheeks heated up and she secretly glanced at Xia Feifei's face next to her.
As expected, Xia Feifei looked at them teasingly.
Lu Yao introduced generously, "Feifei, this is my lover, Duan Mingjie."
Xia Feifei nodded, "Hello, I am Yaoyao's classmate, Xia Feifei."
Duan Mingjie nodded slightly.
"I have good news for you. Feifei has also told her family that her family is willing to come over."
Hearing this, Duan Mingjie thanked Xia Feifei.
"It's okay, it's okay. In fact, it was you who helped me. My father and my brother kept asking me to see if there were any jobs in the capital. After I heard what Liu Wensheng said, I went to Yaoyao."
"Okay, let's talk. I'll leave first."
After Xia Feifei left, Duan Mingjie took Lu Yao's hand and walked out.
"Daughter-in-law, you have no classes in the afternoon, why did you eat at school?"
Lu Yao hugged his arm, "I don't want to cook. It's up to me to go home. It's better to eat ready-made food at school. The worker's matter has been solved, so I won't go back. I plan to go to the library to spend the afternoon. Go back again.”
As she said that, she looked up at Duan Mingjie and said, "You seem very unhappy. Did something happen again?"
Duan Mingjie pulled her to sit in the sun and bask in the sun, "Didn't you ask me what was on my mind yesterday?"
Lu Yao hummed, "Think about how to tell me."
"Do you still remember the time when Dong Niannian was kidnapped?"
Lu Yao: "What's wrong?"
"At that time, Uncle Zheng found out that those people did not leave any traces and said that they were most likely soldiers. At that time, I had doubts."
"What do you suspect?"
"I doubt my eldest brother is still alive."
Hearing this, Lu Yao was shocked, "Why do you think so? Didn't the eldest brother sacrifice his life?"
"You don't believe it, either. In fact, I don't believe it either. Later, Zheng Baoguo sent people to assassinate us, and another group of people came to help us. They even drove a jeep to take you to the hospital."
"Uncle Zheng didn't know you were his daughter at that time. He couldn't have secretly sent someone to protect us. I asked him afterward, and I also asked my uncle, and they all said it wasn't them."
Lu Yao recalled what happened that night. There was indeed a group of people protecting them, but she didn't pay much attention afterwards.
"Have you got any clues lately?"
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so worried yesterday.
"Uncle Zheng told me that a group of people came to him recently and wanted to join me. Uncle Zheng couldn't figure out their details, so he didn't answer. This group of people came over this morning and told me that they are all my elder brothers. comrades and subordinates."
"I deliberately tested them, but the result was not what I wanted."
Lu Yao looked at his disappointed eyes and hugged him distressedly, "Big brother's comrades must have known that you were coming, so they wanted to help you secretly."
Duan Mingjie nodded, "Daughter-in-law, I feel uncomfortable."
Lu Yao hugged him tightly, "I know."
As soon as you had a little hope, it was proven to be a delusion, which would make anyone feel uncomfortable.
"Duan Mingjie, you still have mother, and I. We will have children in the future, and my eldest brother will bless us in heaven."
Duan Mingjie hugged Lu Yao, who urgently needed comfort now.
Zhou Fuqiang, who was not far away, curled his lips when he saw this scene, "How shameless!"
The classmates next to him glanced at him and shook their heads.
Unaware, Lu Yao pushed Duan Mingjie away and smiled at him, "Didn't they say it was the brigade commander of the special operations force who found them? Let's go to the army to thank the brigade commander for his concern, otherwise we will look too ignorant."
"I went there in the morning and saw no one. It seems that they haven't been back in the past few months."
Lu Yao said, "Then when he comes back, let's go thank him again."
Duan Mingjie hummed.
Lu Yao pulled him to stand up, "I won't go to the library this afternoon. Let's buy some eggs. I'll make some chicken cakes for everyone. I'll see if I can buy something that can be used to make pickles to improve their lives."
