Read the excerpt from The Land. I shrugged, as if that was the best I could do for him. "I figure I lose my job, I can get along on that for a while 'til I find another one. Can't do it for less." Mister Ray Sutcliffe from Alabama did not look pleased. "All right. All right. I'm going to pay you what you asking, this four times a rider's wages—but only if you win, you hear? You lose, boy, and you get nothing." This dialogue advances the plot of the story by showing that Paul is going to win the race. is going to lose his job. will participate in the race. will earn money from Sutcliffe.
