Chapter 59 59 Looking at the house
Xu Chunniang was even more speechless. What stimulated the men in her family?
He responded perfunctorily: "No, daddy, you are a man. You have to go to work tomorrow. Go to bed quickly. Did they tell you what time it is?"
"No, I told you to find people. The more the better, the wages will be based on the market price. Oh, I was stupid just now. I didn't ask anything. I know a lot of people. Do you really want them all? I'm going tomorrow
Do you want to call someone? Why don’t you call me?”
Xu Chunniang was really convinced. This man could be so stupid sometimes: "Go ahead, I told you the more the better. I won't play tricks on you. I don't have that much free time."
"You go and call all the people here first. Otherwise, if there are not so many people, just let them go back. Isn't it like this when you guys are looking for work anyway? Let the employer pick whoever suits him, and no one will be offended.
, who can blame you in their heart for this matter?"
Wang Shengbing thought the same thing: "Okay, I'll call someone early tomorrow and have them wait outside the yard."
Wang Shengbing went to call for people before dawn. The coolies like them all got up early and worked hard at night, looking for work everywhere on a first-come, first-served basis, so it was not early to call for people before dawn.
When they heard that there was a job, everyone was very happy to come and waited eagerly outside the yard. It was a cold day and the cold wind was blowing in the early morning. They were not annoyed if they could not wait for a long time.
Because Yuzhi was going to a new house, Sang Dazhuang and Wang Xinfeng had to make do with Yuzhi, not daring to rush or panic.
Yuzhi didn't dare to sleep in, so she woke up at dawn, washed herself, had breakfast, and set off at exactly nine o'clock in the morning.
Mulberry leaves stay at home to take care of the house, and they have to take tutoring and prepare for exams.
As soon as the three people came out of the courtyard, they were surrounded by a group of people.
Seeing a large group of men swarming up with excitement on their faces, Yuzhi was startled.
Sang Dazhuang's eyes widened and he yelled: "What are you doing, looking for a slap so early in the morning?"
The men's faces froze, and they stood there helplessly.
"No, no, no, no, sorry, sorry..." Wang Shengbing hurriedly squeezed into the crowd: "Comrade, I'm sorry, they are the people I called here. This is not what you said yesterday..."
"To tell you the truth, I asked you to scare my wife? Are you feeling itchy?"
Sang Dazhuang raised his fist as big as a sandbag and was about to hit someone. Wang Shengbing was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Even though he was used to hard work, if he really wanted to fight Sang Dazhuang, even ten of him would be no match.
Yuzhi wasn't that scared at first, but he just had a subconscious reaction when he saw a group of big men suddenly and excitedly surrounding him.
She knew that Sang Dazhuang asked Wang Shengbing to find people to do the work last night. These people should be brought by Wang Shengbing. She didn't expect to be here so early. Looking at the weather, she was afraid that she would not be able to do it.
It’s not easy even if you don’t have time.
He quickly grabbed Sang Dazhuang's hand and said with a smile: "Since it is a misunderstanding, forget it. They are all workers hired by comrades. Thank you for your hard work. My man has a short temper. Please forgive me for any offence."
They were all honest and humble coolie men. It didn't matter if they were yelled at by their employers. They even encountered employers who beat and kicked them and refused to pay them in the end.
People who do physical work like theirs often don't have human rights and are used to it.
"It's okay, it's okay." The honest men waved their hands with red faces. It was rare to meet such a polite employer, so they were a little nervous.
Just these two words, nothing else can be said.
Yuzhi smiled and looked at Wang Shengbing: "You haven't had breakfast yet. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. Da Zhuang, go to the state-owned restaurant in front and buy some cereals and steamed buns for everyone to eat first.
"
Wang Shengbing waved his hand quickly: "No, no, no, no, no, we haven't worked yet, how can we eat? I've called a lot of people here. Let's take a look. If you don't need them, just pick some that you like. Everyone.
They are all good at their jobs, so don’t worry, we won’t do any tricks.”
Yuzhi smiled and looked at Sang Dazhuang: "Can we use so many people?"
Sang Dazhuang glanced at the group of men who looked like refugees. He was a little disgusted by the groveling look, but he could tell that they were all good at work and not treacherous people with too many thoughts. They could be used.
"After using it up, it's not enough."
"That's fine," he turned to look at Wang Shengbing: "Our house is being built urgently and we need it urgently. We need a lot of people, so please stay. I'll have to work hard for you all in the future."
"Let's eat some steamed buns first, and you can discuss the rest with my man. Don't worry, although my man has a short temper, he is reasonable. As long as everyone works hard, the wages will not be less, let alone not giving them.
wages.”
When everyone heard that they could all stay and work for a while, they were so happy that they had no time to think about anything else.
"We will definitely do it well, we will definitely do it well."
Yuzhi smiled and urged Sang Dazhuang to buy steamed bread.
Sang Dazhuang walked away with long legs, while Wang Shengbing and the other men stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.
Wang Xinfeng rolled his eyes and was very disgusted: "You are so stupid. You look like you are being bullied at first glance. You are all unlucky things. You are paid for working for others. What you earn is hard-earned, honest money. You are like
What was stolen seems to have been snatched, and Qiao will become angry."
"The good-for-nothing guy has his back straightened out by me. It makes me upset just to look at him."
In order to get the opportunity to work, a group of men must work harder than others, be more able to endure humiliation, and learn to be flattered if they want to be the chosen one among the heavy labor force in Nuo Da.
So I got used to bending down and greeting people with a smile.
When Wang Xinfeng said this, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Wang Xinfeng frowned: "Everyone is deaf? He stood up straight and slipped."
The men were startled, fearing that their chance would be lost, so they straightened their backs, looked serious, and looked intently, as if they were standing in a military posture.
Wang Xinfeng snorted, barely satisfied.
Yuzhi laughed so hard that she held Wang Xinfeng's arm and said nothing.
Life is not easy, and every profession has its own way of survival. She cannot say that she is spineless when she dislikes others, nor does she feel that she is noble.
Sang Dazhuang came back soon and gave Wang Shengbing the steamed buns he bought: "It's all divided. Eat as you go. Follow up."
Sang Dazhuang estimated that, with two per person, he bought up all the cereals and steamed buns in the state-owned restaurant.
After giving it to Wang Shengbing, he took his wife and mother to the new house without caring about the group of people behind him.
It's not very far here, just over an hour's walk.
But that's Sang Dazhuang's speed, and Yuzhi's speed is even faster.
Sang Dazhuang felt sorry for his wife. He saw a tricycle and called one to Yuzhi.
Yuzhi didn't show off and sat on it obediently. Wang Xinfeng sat with him.
The men behind them were carrying two steamed buns with red eyes and were reluctant to eat them, so they ran after the car.
Not to mention running away, they are happy to carry the cart and run away. How can the employer give him food before he works? They have met a kind person.
When we arrived at the new house, the workers we hired earlier were already working. Li Gan and Shou Hou were not there, and Zhao Qiang was supervising the work.
Seeing Sang Dazhuang and his party, he greeted them with a smile: "Auntie is here?" He glanced at Yuzhi with a somewhat unhappy expression. Sang Dazhuang was here, and he couldn't ignore it, so he shouted in a neutral voice:
"Sister-in-law is here too?"
Yuzhi didn't care, smiled and nodded: "Well, thank you for your hard work. These are the steamed buns and fish stew that my mother made yesterday, specially left for you. Since you didn't go back yesterday, I brought some for you to try at noon.
Find a place where you can heat it up and eat it.”
Yuzhi handed Sang Dazhuang the steamed bun in his hand to Zhao Qiang.
Zhao Qiang looked indifferent. When he looked at Wang Xinfeng, he smiled like a dog and said, "Thank you, auntie. I love eating the steamed buns made by auntie."
Wang Xinfeng snorted. She didn't want to see her daughter-in-law, and she didn't want to see him either. Her expression was even saltier than when he was facing the elm branch: "Eat, eat, live as long as I can, otherwise I'll eat it."
As much as you put in, I will get out as much as you want."
Zhao Qiang didn't care about Wang Xinfeng's cold face at all, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, aunt, you can't be wrong."
The relationship between the three of them seems quite complicated.
Sang Dazhuang pointed to a group of people behind him and said to Zhao Qiang: "Leave it to you, make all the arrangements."
"Okay," Zhao Qiang glanced at the men and asked a few simple questions. Knowing what they were good at, he arranged the work: "The people working inside are all skilled house builders. You don't know anything, so help first."
Some chores, cleaning the yard, picking up bricks."
"Then help the master and build the courtyard wall first. If you can see their skills and do the work alone, if you do well, I will give you a wage increase."
The men were surprised and happy, how could they still learn skills?
Wang Shengbing said hurriedly: "Don't worry, boss, we will definitely do it well and study hard."
Zhao Qiang waved his hand. There was no need to say any nice words. He just took practical actions and led the people to work.
Sang Dazhuang took Yuzhi into the alley and stood at the door to look at the situation in the yard.
There were a lot of things piled up in the yard and it was very dusty, so she was not allowed in.
This piece of land is really big, square and square.
Regardless of the location of the house or the area and shape of the house, Yuzhi is very satisfied. Ten thousand yuan is a real value.
Wang Xinfeng is also satisfied. The place is nice. She can watch her daughter-in-law at the entrance of the alley and pick her up from school.
Yuzhi asked Sang Dazhuang: "Do you have any specific data on this land?"
"have."
