Chapter 203 The Fate of the Three Tang Siblings⑤
Seeing that Tang Zhi was about to continue gambling, Tang Xing shook his head and walked past Tang Zhi in disappointment.
When Tang Zhi saw Tang Xing's expression, he thought that he was somewhat dissatisfied with him, so he quickly stood in front of him and spoke to him.
"Tang Xing, don't underestimate your brother.
Your brother, I have already grasped the pattern, and I will definitely win tomorrow.
Besides, the boss said he is willing to lend me money tomorrow.
Don't worry, I'll take you to buy a house tomorrow, and we can finally settle down in this city."
When Tang Xing heard Tang Zhi say that his boss was willing to lend him money, he instantly remembered the gambling friend he had met before.
The friend once told him that this kind of situation is usually a trap set by the boss.
Seeing that you have no money, they ask you to sign an IOU.
By that time, the interest will still be compounded and it will be difficult to pay it back, so he quickly stopped in front of Tang Zhi and said to him.
"Brother, if you lose, just consider it as a loss.
As long as we two brothers make money together, we can make ends meet.
We are still young and have the energy to make money.
Don't ever borrow money, because you can never pay it back."
When Tang Zhi heard this, he pushed Tang Xing and looked at him and said.
"You are so confused. If we work hard all our lives carrying bricks, when will we be able to earn money?
Is it possible that he will end up like Tang Weiguo, returning home in disgrace with his tail between his legs?
If you want to go back, go back. I won’t go back to my hometown. I will definitely make a comeback tomorrow."
Having said that, Tang Zhi left Tang Xing and left.
Tang Xing wanted to chase after him immediately, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his stomach.
He hadn't eaten anything all day and had been moving bricks all day.
My stomach hurts from hunger, but I don’t have a penny on me.
The next day, Tang Xing found his boss and wanted to advance him one month's salary.
The boss saw that Tang Xing had been here for so long and was considered an honest man who had been working diligently.
This also means that Tang Xing was given a one-month advance salary.
With that month's salary, Tang Xing prepared to buy something to eat.
After being hungry for a day and a night, Tang Xing finally got something to eat.
After counting the money he had, Tang Xing had to admit that his plan to rent a house was a long way off.
I don’t know when I can sleep on a bed again. These days I either sleep on a wooden bench or on the ground or on the lawn.
My back and waist ache every day because of sleeping, and I still have to move bricks during the day.
At this time, Tang Xing had just finished lunch and was about to go to the construction site to find a place to take a nap and continue moving bricks in the afternoon.
Then he saw his brother running towards him with an anxious look on his face.
Tang Xing was a little confused when he saw his brother's miserable appearance.
"Brother, what happened to you?"
Tang Zhi ran up to Tang Xing and wanted to reach into his pocket.
Tang Xing quickly took a step back and said.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Tang Zhi said to Tang Xing with red eyes.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just give me the money.
Hurry up, or I, your brother, will be dead."
Tang Xing covered his one-month advance salary and looked at Tang Zhi warily.
"Brother, do you still want to gamble?
I told you, it's a bottomless pit, don't gamble anymore.
We have no money left and can’t even afford to eat.”
At this time, Tang Zhi's eyes were red and he wanted to go forward and grab the money.
Tang Xing had already eaten his fill and had enough strength, so how could he tolerate Tang Zhi snatching the money from his pocket?
The two men started fighting immediately, and Tang Zhi suddenly yelled at Tang Xing during the fight.
"Hurry up! If I don't win the money back, the boss will chop off my hand."
Hearing this, Tang Xing looked at Tang Zhi blankly and said.
"Brother, did you go gambling again this morning?"
Tang Xing had originally wanted to persuade his brother to give up gambling tonight.
But he didn't expect that his brother would go out to gamble so early in the morning.
When Tang Zhi heard this, he looked at Tang Xing and said.
"Give me the money quickly. If I don't take it, the boss will chop off my hand."
Hearing this, Tang Xing looked at Tang Zhi and said.
"Brother, how could this happen?"
Tang Zhi then talked about how he had borrowed money from the boss early this morning and signed an IOU.
I was thinking about making a quick buck, but for some reason my luck wasn't with me today and I didn't make any.
Not only did he fail to make back his losses, he also lost all of his boss's capital. After losing all of it, the boss asked him to pay compensation.
He borrowed 1000 yuan from his boss, and his boss asked him to pay back yuan.
How can he pay it back? If he can't pay it back, he will have to chop off his hand.
Hearing this, Tang Xing was extremely desperate. He only had 100 yuan on him. Where could he find yuan to give to his brother?
At this time, Tang Zhi looked at Tang Xing and said.
"Don't worry, Tang Xing, just give me the money.
Your brother, I will go and make a comeback now, and I can pay back the boss’s money tonight.
If I pay the money back, the boss won’t cut off my hand.
hurry up!
Do you want to watch your brother get his hands chopped off?"
Tang Xing was still able to think clearly at this time. He stopped his brother and spoke to him.
“No, brother, this is unreasonable, this is usury.
Let’s call the police, they will definitely help us.”
When Tang Zhi heard this, he punched Tang Xing and said.
"You're so confused! You even called the police! Are you trying to kill me, your brother?"
At this time, Tang Zhi snatched the bag of money from Tang Xing's bag and ran away again.
Tang Xing followed behind and wanted to catch up, but he didn't expect that it was time to go to work in the afternoon.
He had just received an advance on his salary from his boss, so how could he possibly ask for leave or be absent from work in the afternoon?
He could only think of finishing moving the bricks in the afternoon and then going to talk to his brother.
If he owes money, the worst that can happen is that he will accompany his brother to find a solution.
If two people work three jobs a day, they can always pay back the money. It would be nice to ask the boss for help.
After moving bricks in the afternoon, Tang Xing was about to go find his brother.
As a result, he saw that his brother had returned, so he quickly walked up to him and wanted to tell him his plan.
"Brother, don't worry, I've made up my mind. Let's go and ask the boss for mercy.
After asking for help, the two of us worked three jobs a day together, and we were able to pay back the money.
Let the boss give us some time."
After hearing what Tang Xing said, Tang Zhi sat down on the ground dejectedly and said.
"It's over, everything is over."
Seeing his brother like this, Tang Xing suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and said to his brother.
"Brother, what happened?"
Tang Zhi then looked at Tang Xing and spoke slowly.
"When he took the 100 yuan to gamble in the afternoon, he actually made back his money.
I was having a great time gambling, but I lost one bet and lost all my money.
But he felt that he was lucky, so he went to borrow some money from his boss again, and the boss lent him another 1000 yuan.
He thought that today was a lucky day, and that the 1000 yuan would definitely make up for his losses, so paying his boss back would be a piece of cake.
