Chapter two hundred and eighty first, the shadow of the toilet brush(1/2)

It was dark under the light. The more Nan Yi thought about it, the more he felt that he had seen it. He almost passed on all the people he had seen, but he just never thought about himself.

Yes, Lin Shuyi and Nan Yi's eyes were simply carved from the same mold.

"Hongdou, really looks like it?"

“It’s very similar.”

"oh."

Lin Shuyi just spoke, and Nan Yi heard a little bit of the accent of Yunnan Province, and some of the lyrics were still in Beijing films, with a little bit of a metaphor. According to her age, it was probably a birth in about 1943.

"The Expeditionary Force was stationed in Jiangzhu for a long time. Lin Shuyi was probably born at that time, and then the war broke out. She was left in China and went to the capital in circles..."

You can't think about it, the more you think about it, the more you develop in the direction you don't want.

Nan Yi did not want "Nan Yi"'s identity background to be too complicated, but it seemed that something went against his wishes. If Fang Mengyin was a surprise, the rest of the Nan family could ignore it, then he would only find it troublesome if another mother appeared.

Yes, it’s just troublesome, no feelings, and you have to pretend to be close, which is too tired.

"Daiwen, check the Lin Shuyi just now. If she is about twenty years old in the capital or Moscow, then investigate it carefully. If not, then there is no need to check it." Back at the apartment, Nan Yi called Daiwen into the study, "You can only know about this matter, and find out from outside."

"I understand, old and detailed."

Nan Yi sat in the study for a while, and Fan Hongdou came in.

"Manager Nan, the farm has been bought. Should we go to recruit workers?"

"Yes, I haven't gotten off work yet, so it's time to recruit workers."

Nan Yi agreed and followed Fan Hongdou out.

The two first went to the job agency in Chinatown, left some money, and then left recruitment details, and then went to Flushing.

There are job-introduction agencies in the settlements of Chinese people. Whether they have green cards or blackmails, they can find a job here. Of course, such agents are both fed. Those who want to find someone must be given a fee, and those who find a job must be given a fee.

However, there are also vocational agencies of public welfare nature and organizations such as the Chinese Federation. However, everyone knows that it is enough to watch the fun of this kind of free nature. If you still have two dollars in your pocket, you won’t go there to find a job.

"Hello, please help me register. I want to find fifteen vegetable growers. In China, I have to be farmers, and I have to be paid 400 US dollars a month to include food and accommodation, preferably southerners."

In this era, there were quite a difference in vegetables grown in the north and south. The Chinese in the country were mainly southerners, and the vegetables that Nanyi wanted to grow must also be mainly southerners. Of course, it is best to find southern farmers.

"Where is the workplace?" asked the agent.

"Lengquan Town, one day off a week, you can come to the city with a delivery car. In addition, you have to hire two delivery drivers. In addition to driving, you have to be responsible for unloading goods. You can deliver vegetables to the city at 3:40 a.m. every day, and you will be fine at other times.

This salary is negotiable, or anyone who has a car can also talk to me about contracting. My phone number is 212-911-8811”

"Okay, you've registered. You're two positions and you're paying $50."

"for you."

Nan Yi handed the money to the agent, turned around and wanted to leave the complicated window, but a man called him.

"Hey, buddy, are you looking for people to grow vegetables? Do you think I'm going to do it?"

Nan Yi looked back at the man who was talking. He had messy long hair, his face was full of rebelliousness and arrogance, fair and tender skin, and a tall figure. He looked like he was not from a poor family. He probably had an enviable job in China.

"Stop kidding, you can't endure that hardship."

"How can I know I can't bear the hardship if I don't try?" The man said, walking towards Nanyi, "I can hear it from the accent. Are we a fellow villager in the capital?"

"Don't rush to discuss friendship. I'll tell you a briefing. I'll tell you that you can't do it at first. Don't waste time with me. Go to the counter to ask if there is any other job."

Nan Yi said, and was about to leave, but the man refused to let go, "Don't let me try it, I really can't do it, I'll give you a day of mercy. If you tell me to get out, I'm sure I'm not talking nonsense."

"Okay, at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, you take the subway to get off at Central Park Station, exit from the north, walk to the north entrance of Central Park, and walk along the direction of three o'clock... The distance between 1,500 rice seedlings and the distance between 1,500 sweet potato vines, at this distance, someone will be waiting for you there.

If you find the right person, I will take you away. If you find the wrong person, where can you call yourself and go back.

How about it, do you want to try it?"

"Just try it, wait, I'll arrive on time tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll wait to see you tomorrow." Nan Yi said with a little teasing.

Nan Yi found out that the man in front of him had never been to the field. If he knew about the distance between the seedlings and sweet potato vines, there would be a ghost. If he really could go to the right place tomorrow, it means that he was careful, and Nan Yi would not mind giving him a job.

It really takes some effort to find a few farmers who grow vegetables. At this moment, not many farmers in China have come out. There are more farmers in three places: one in the Northeast, who uses the convenience of war orphans to Tokyo; one is Hu Jian, who brings acquaintances with acquaintances; the other is Wenshi, but they are planning to do business, and the ghosts are here to help you grow vegetables.

Nan Yi estimated that Hu Jianren would account for a large proportion of the people he would recruit, and only they came out with the goal of going abroad to make money. No matter what job he had, he would be willing to do as long as his salary was paid high.

$400, and it is also a guaranteed accommodation. The salary is already very low. Don’t even look at a restaurant that can get twenty or thirty dollars a day when you go to a restaurant to clean the plates, but renting a basement without windows in New York starts at $300.

As long as you are willing to endure hardships, it is not difficult to save 4,000 US dollars a year.

In this way, Nan Yi also counted all the shots a month.

After leaving the jobsite, Nan Yi looked at his watch and said to Fan Hongdou: "Chairman, it's time to get off work, I'll go see your brother first."

Fan Hongdou also looked at her watch, "Okay, you can leave now, don't be late for work tomorrow."

“No, no.”

"Go."

Fan Hongdou waved his hand in a grand manner, turned around and walked towards his car.

Nan Yi looked at her and sighed that it was not cultivated in vain. Fan Hongdou's aura had begun to accumulate, and it had accumulated a lot and spread thinly. One day, she could be able to control and relax freely.

Nan Yi arrived at Scarlett's house. He first had a good time with his son and took him to the garden outside. Later, he was anxious to pee and took his son home.

I handed my son to the nanny and walked to the bathroom on the first floor with my legs clamped. But as soon as I walked to the door, I saw a woman squatting there in the bathroom brushing the toilet. Not to mention, I was brushing so seriously, and humming "Velvet Flower" in my mouth.

Nan Yi turned upstairs as soon as he saw her. After relaxing, he found Scarlett's bodyguard Eli who was resting. "Who is the woman in the bathroom?"

"Joan   chen, the newly hired hourly worker of Scarlett, just came today and worked very seriously."

"Oh, I got it."

Scarlett doesn't like there are too many outsiders in her house, and there is no fixed maid here. If she didn't know how to cook and didn't like to take care of children, even Chef Renault and Nan Youyou's poor nanny Charlotte wouldn't want them to stay here.

If you can sing "Yellow Flower", you must have come from China, and it won't be too early, which is what happened in the past two years.

Nan Yi was still thinking. The person he was thinking about had come out of the bathroom. This time, he saw his face. He didn't have to think about finding out the truth. He knew this person, no, it should be said that most Chinese people should know him.

She starred in three movies at a young age and won the Golden Pit Award, the highest film award in China. She is a hot actress, but after the honors, she chose to study abroad.

Two years ago, when I opened "Popular Movies", there were often reports about her, and there were also many reports on her going abroad.

Seeing her walking to the second floor, Nan Yi stopped her and said in Chinese: "Ms. Chen, you don't need to clean the master bedroom and the second bedroom, it will be the same in the future."

"Are you?" Chen Qiong said in surprise.

"It's the male owner here. I want to remind you that what you see and hear here is rotten in your stomach and don't go out and talk nonsense."

"Sir, don't worry, I won't gossip."

"Okay, you can keep busy and not disturb you." Nan Yi made a "please" gesture and stopped talking to Chen Qiong.

Chen Qiong walked up the stairs with her steps, and stopped and looked back at Nan Yi after walking a few steps. She felt mixed feelings. If she knew her, she must have come from China, but why is the difference in life so big?

Shaking her head, secretly pitying her sadness, thinking that when she came to the country of sacred, everything would start from scratch, and the achievements she had made in China were cleared in foreign countries, and all her superiority in China would no longer exist.

She began her arduous journey in the country. In order to pay the rent, she went to the restaurant to work and went to the kitchen to do odd jobs. The halo of the actress queen disappeared. For her, it was just a memory and helpless. Instead, she became a bargaining chip for the restaurant owner to raise her value.

When the restaurant is crowded, the Chinese boss will introduce Chen Qiong to the diners: "Look, take a look, this is the Golden Kill Queen of China, and now I will be welcomed by me."

The glory rippling on the restaurant's face and the viciousness at the corners of her mouth made Chen Qiong feel extremely humiliated. Although she has left there now, she still remembers it fresh.

She is not willing to give in, so she is very attentive in her work now, even if it is just an hourly worker.

At this time, Nan Yi was in the bathroom on the first floor, staring at the toilet up and down, "The work is so fine, there is no dead corner left, and the reservoir has been opened and cleaned."

Nan Yi was quite satisfied with Chen Qiong's work. If she was not a actress, Nan Yi really wanted to keep her high salary and be responsible for cleaning.

...

In the evening, when Scarlett came back from get off work, Nan Yi talked to her about Chen Qiong.

"Where did you find that Miss Chen?"

"Heidi introduced that it turned out that MISS Chen was working as a part-time worker at her house. Didn't she settle down in London? She introduced MISS Chen to me before leaving. How about it, is she doing her job well?"

"I did a good job, but I just felt a little wronged. Have you never watched Chinese movies in the cinema in Beijing?"

"No, I didn't know Chinese very well at that time."

"Oh, let's put it this way, Chen Qiong's reputation in China is similar to Diane Lian, and he is also a popular movie star."

"Are you teasing me?" Scarlett said in a scammer.

"uh-huh."

"Why?"

"Ha, it seems that you are in a waste of time in Beijing. You don't even know the current situation of Chinese movie stars. Let me tell you, actors are just a job in China. They don't have so-called pay, and they also receive a fixed salary every month.

However, if the movies are sold well, they can get a little bonus. Compared with ordinary workers, their income is OK, but it is not much higher, and their living standards are almost the same."

"So, is she here to pursue the dream of a nation?"

"Then I don't know. I've always been uninterested in the privacy of strangers, you understand."

"Oh, okay, then we won't discuss her anymore, let's talk about the gold mining company." Scarlett stopped talking about Chen Qiong when he heard Nan Yi's words.
