Foolish Man

What Xiao Qi got from Boss Zhu was a road job for the entire community. After all, he took the most difficult and least profitable item, and Boss Zhu had no choice but to fill in some lucrative work for him.

Fortunately, the high efficiency of Xiao Qi's side also made Boss Zhu satisfied. Boss Zhu took the time to take a look and saw that Xiao Qi was instructing the workers to level the gravel filling layer. Boss Zhu smiled with satisfaction.

"Xiao Qi, work hard. After the cement road is paved, I will give you some money to support the workers."

Boss Zhu is really Xiao Qi's favorite kind of boss. Many bosses basically don't mention money, and occasionally mention it because they found the foreman's dissatisfaction and so as to appease him.

But the kind of trickery is to give the money deadline vaguely, such as "work hard, money can't do without you" and so on. There is no use at all.

Boss Zhu is able to give such a clear deadline for payment. Xiao Qi is now humiliated and his eyes are staring at Boss Zhu, "Boss rest assured, these things are on my body. As long as I have wages, I will keep the workers. These jobs must be done well and fast for you!"

So money must not be delayed. If I can’t do well here, it’s because you’re dragging the money that I can’t keep the workers.

Boss Zhu smiled and nodded, squeaking his briefcase, and asked Xiao Qi to take him around again.

The basic process of road construction is to take the drawings and then set the line, determine the distance between the road and the building, and dig the soil foundation.

Of course, if the contractor who repairs the building sneaks and digs the dirt on the side of the road to fill the land on his side, the road builder must pull the dirt to fill it, and whether it is digging or filling depends on the situation.

After that, the machinery entered the site and crushed the road. The machinery was also included in the cost of raw materials, and it was paid out by the big boss of Shuangbao. Otherwise, Xiao Qi would not dare to start the construction site with the little money in his pocket now.

Xiao Qi casually patted the mud on his body, showing Boss Zhu to look at the scene he had leveled.

"...It is expected that the site will be leveled in three days, and the curbstone can be pulled over today and tomorrow..."

"... Don't worry, the boss, I have never done anything less than the curbstone, it is absolutely excellent in quality."

Boss Zhu saw that Xiao Qi was covered in mud, and his hair was grayed out by dust. He saw that he was a sincere young man, "Go, go to the car and bring me something. It's getting hot. I bought a box for you. Come over with mineral water, pay attention to replenish moisture, don't get ill in the sun."

Such a boss, Xiao Qi decided to list Boss Zhu as his favorite person in the world.

Well, there is only Boss Zhu in the ranks.

Xiao Qi moved the water and watched Boss Zhu leave. He turned around and did not return to the construction site. He first crossed the road and walked two alleys back to his rental house. He stuffed a box of mineral water under his bed, and found out that it was convenient. The plastic bags left by the shop filled a dozen bottles of water, and then I wandered back to the construction site, "Lao Lai, you guys rest for a while, drink some water first. You will be tired for a day or two when you are tired. Wait for the cement shop. Just go down."

Lao Lai’s full name is Lai Dakui. He is in his thirties. Although he is thin, he can’t resist the big frame, and he can’t get enough of his strength. There are three babies in the family waiting to be raised.

I used to work with other contractors, but Lao Lai is not a fellow contractor, so he can't be arranged for him when he doesn't live much.

Lai was anxious, and the mother-in-law in his hometown called him and asked him which of the three children in the family would choose to pack his bags and go home and not study.

At this moment, the last thing that forced the rural people to do is not only the seed and fertilizer needed for the crops in the field, but the second thing is the children's tuition.

You can owe it when you first started school, but it's already June, and the semester is about to end. Schools that haven't paid the tuition can only issue the final notice.

Lao Lai and the mother-in-law are uneducated, but they value the study of the three children very much. Now the mother-in-law in the family sells everything that can be sold, and she can't make up the tuition for the last baby, so she cried and beat him. Talk about this on the phone.

Lao Lai also understands his wife's temperament, cheeky, go to the foreman to advance the pay, but in the first half of the year, he didn't do much work, and June was the most stressful time for the foreman.

Lao Lai is not an old man in the work team or an indispensable technician, and the other is not a relative of the foreman, so naturally he can't borrow money.

Lao Lai squatted near the work shed, pinching his cigarette **** and worried, and then met Xiao Qi, who was looking for a worker with green eyes.

Xiao Qi's eyes swept Lao Lai's hands, feet, and back, and then looked at Lao Lai's elongated bitter melon face, and he got Lao Lai's hands two or three sentences.

Of course, the most important thing is actually because Xiao Qi promised that as long as Lao Lai is willing to follow him, he will be able to advance 500 yuan as soon as the construction site starts.

Five hundred yuan, Lao Lai sent it back to the remaining child after paying the tuition, and there is the rest to return the money borrowed before, and I heard Xiao Qi said that he could do more than two jobs. moon.

Lao Lai thought that Xiao Qi had an idea, and it was better to follow Xiao Qi than to continue to sit on the bench here. No matter how bad he was, he could always collect the children's tuition in the second half of the year, so he packed up and followed Xiao Qi.

In addition, through Lao Lai, Xiao Qi also dug six 30- to 40-year-old laborers who were as worried as Lao Lai and did not work, and they all offered "pocket money" for one or two hundred dollars in advance for each person when they started work. .

It is said that it is pocket money, but for these men who are eager to find work to earn money to support their families, they can directly send them home to their old mothers and children for emergency.

In this way, Xiao Qi spent the workers' own wages ahead of time, but he was able to exchange the trust and respect of a group of workers.

It can be said that Lao Lai was Xiao Qi's most proud of picking up leaks. He picked it up from the road teeth and picked up a bunch of them. It happened to be a help when the opponent was the most desperate.

As long as such people are not morally problematic, they can be trusted and reused for at least three to five years in the future.

Because Lao Lai was squatted on the road girders by Xiao Qi himself, Lao Lai was the most loyal to Xiao Qi among the current workers. In turn, Xiao Qi also showed enough to Lao Lai. Trust and be close.

On the one hand, it repaid Lao Lai’s trust, and on the other hand, it was also for others to see. If anyone wants to be valued by Xiao Qi, they must learn from Comrade Lai Lai.

In addition to the six workers Xiao Qi abducted from Fang Jian, there are two other people who Xiao Qi squatted on the paving site while the foreman did not supervise them. They have some skills and can do it directly. Great work.

Lao Lai, who was holding a shovel to level the rubble, heard that the foreman brought a bag of water with his throat and smiled. He grinned suddenly, put the shovel and went forward to receive the water, "Boss, look at your expense. Yes, we all know that the boss just took care of the work, and the money is still tight."

Lao Lai said this when he was close to Xiao Qi, and knew that it was not easy for others to hear. Lai Lai really respected Xiao Qi as his boss.

Xiao Qi smiled with understanding, raised his hand and patted the dust on Lao Lai's shoulder, "What's the matter? Everyone has worked hard. In the future, when we get rich, we won't drink this tasteless mineral water. NS."

Lao Lai couldn't help laughing out loud.

Xiao Qi alone took two bottles of water to find Peng Laoliu and Gong Changjiang, who were also on the flat ground not far away. They were a father and son in their forties and seventeen or eight.

However, depending on the different surnames, the two are stepfathers and sons.

Because Peng Laoliu wanted to bring his new stepson to do great work directly, he was willing to halve his wages for this Peng Laoliu, which was regarded as transferring his wages to his son.

But the foreman was not happy and felt that Peng Laoliu was deliberately taking Joe, anyway, now it is all workers asking the foreman to find work. Young Peng Laoliu does not matter if he is a big job, so this year he is very indifferent to Peng Laoliu, and even will Directly arrange Peng Laoliu, a veteran of five or six years, to do small jobs.

Little laborers are doing miscellaneous tasks, not to mention low wages, they are also very tired. Gong Changjiang got worse after having trouble with the foreman twice because of this.

Gong Changjiang himself is willing to do small jobs and let his stepfather not hold on to it, but Peng Laoliu would rather endure hardship than his stepson. Only those who have done it step by step know how much the road is. Torture people.

All in all, thanks to the good relationship between the stepfather and son, Xiao Qi just happened to be able to dig him over.

As for Gong Changjiang, he just came out this year and can't do big jobs?

Xiao Qi asked the two fathers and sons what they meant, and then let Gong Changjiang follow his stepfather to do the big work, but the wages would be reduced, a little more than the small workers' wages, and about one-third less than the big workers' wages.

Peng Laoliu insisted on taking his son to do the big work. Originally, he didn't want to spend more money on the big work, but just wanted to teach his son the craftsmanship.

Many big jobs start from small jobs. Without a master's teaching, they can only learn from others' yelling and scolding while they are tired. Only after two or three years can they gradually get started with big jobs. With the craftsmanship of the door to eat.

So instead of making the two fathers and sons unhappy, Xiao Qi's decision was extremely grateful to Xiao Qi.

"Sixth brother, Yangtze River, take a break and drink."

Peng Laoliu and Gong Changjiang were flattered when they saw Xiao Qi personally bring water to them, but Peng Laoliu was in his 40s anyway, so he didn’t say anything, but decided that it would be good when it was their turn to work. Dry.

Peng Laoliu reached out and took the water. He held a spatula and gave his son a bottle first. He unscrewed his head and poured half of the bottle down. "This water costs money, and I can't help but drink it. If you can fill a bottle, it's not that the little baby is rare for these."

Peng Laoliu speaks rather hard, and if he can speak, he won't be let go by the foreman before him.

Xiao Qi smiled and nodded without mind, "That is to give you a taste today, next time I will definitely bring you a bucket of cold boiled water mixed with Huoxiang Zhengqi water."

Gong Changjiang is worried that his stepfather will make his boss upset if his stepfather speaks so hard. After all, people have worked so hard to buy water, but you don't think it is enough to drink.

But seeing Xiao Qi smile calmly and sincerely, Gong Changjiang breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside and laughed.

Teenagers, naturally, they don’t know that some people will face to face and do things behind them. Of course, under normal circumstances, Xiao Qi wouldn't do such a unique skill to a worker. If he wanted to do it, he would definitely play with the bosses above him.

"...Wait two days to settle the road along the stone, and then I will be the two great works of the Yangtze River, I am afraid that I will be too busy."

Qingcheng Yaju is a mid-range apartment. The area of ​​the community is not too small. Even if Xiao Qi’s side is only Area A, it can add up to more than 2,000 square meters. Only Peng Laoliu and a second-in-command Gong Changjiang must be No way, too slow.

"Don't worry, I think we will have to do more work together in the future, so at that time I will teach them to learn what they can learn. If everyone knows how to do it in the future, then we will hire odd jobs from the outside. When you come to do miscellaneous work, everyone earns a lot of money."

Peng Laoliu didn't expect Xiao Qi to have such a plan. Now who has the craftsmanship of great engineering, would bother to teach others so easily? Even Peng Laoliu himself is only willing to teach his son.

Such a comparison made Peng Lao Liu Lao blush. Gong Changjiang on the side naturally knew what Xiao Qi's words meant, and the look in Xiao Qi's eyes was different for a while.

Xiao Qi said this to Peng Laoliu with ulterior motives. When he caught a glimpse of Gong Changjiang's eyes, he was instantly happy, and then made a heart-and-heart expression.

"Brother Six, I think Yangtze River is still so young, are you really willing to let him work on the construction site for a lifetime?"

Peng Laoliu sighed, shook his head holding the mineral water bottle, and shook his head until he usually saw Gong Changjiang’s bleak face. For some reason, he held back and said nothing, but only smiled reluctantly, "Changjiang, you go to Uncle Lai's place first. After taking a break, I will talk to the boss."

Gong Changjiang didn't say anything, he was obedient and obedient, but he didn't really run to rest empty-handed. Instead, he bent over the mineral water he had drunk and put it on the ground, carrying a shovel and going to Lao Lai and the others and started working.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Qi exaggerated, "The Yangtze River is a person who is willing to work hard." Those who are willing to work hard only need to find the right direction, that is, farming can produce a family business.

Peng Laoliu gave a relieved smile anyway, "I also blame my stepfather for being incapable. If there is nothing wrong with Changjiang's dad, Changjiang must have been admitted to college now."

Gong Changjiang’s father drove a tractor out to sell fertilizer ten years ago and disappeared from a car accident. At that time, he was so slick that he could make money, and he could buy watches for his wife. He was one of the best in Peng Laoliu and the others. Capable person.

It's a pity that Lord God wants to collect people, no one can do it. Peng Laoliu and Gong Changjiang's father are good brothers who grew up together. Gong Changjiang's father is gone, and there are two older sisters above them.

Seeing that the seedlings of the orphans and widows being bullied by their uncles were pulled out to feed the chickens, Peng Laoliu couldn't stand it. When the matchmaker talked about him, Peng Laoliu, a 30-year-old bachelor, came to ask. According to Gong Changjiang's mother, Peng Laoliu was willing to come, so that Gong Changjiang's family would not be considered as lacking a man.

At that time, there was no need to pay attention to the law or the law. The reason why Uncle Gong’s treatment of the two mothers and sons was so ruthless was to force the two mothers and children to leave the village and return to their natal home. When the time came, Gong Changjiang’s father built the first village in the village. A red-brick and blue-tile house would be theirs, and even the fields would be divided by them.

People, what can't be done for profit?

Peng Lao went to the frontier when he was sixty-two and three years old. He gave the ethnic minorities up the mountain to herd sheep and beat the quarry with stones that could only earn one or two cents a day. His temper was not that good.

Therefore, after Peng Laoliu became Gong Changjiang's stepfather, the uncles who had made a fuss about putting mouse medicine in the pot of the two mothers and sons finally retracted the tortoise heads.

Peng Laoliu has been thinking about ways to make money to support the family over the years. Even if Gong Changjiang’s mother is worried that there are already three children in the family and she does not want to have children, Peng Laoliu did not delve into it, but only calmly agreed.

At the end of last year, Gong Changjiang took the college entrance examination at school, thinking that he could get a high school diploma, thinking that he had no money at home, and that he was not a student. He was unwilling to continue the college entrance examination, so he carried a bag this year. Stubbornly followed his stepfather with a muffled voice.

Before hearing Peng Laoliu talk about this matter, Gong Changjiang was also ashamed, because he took his stepfather's money to go to school in the past few years, but he failed to learn a result.

Peng Laoliu felt that he was incapable and failed to make enough money. Otherwise, even if the child's academic performance is not good enough, he can continue to retake the exam. Two more exams will always lead to a good school.

Xiao Qi didn’t comment on this. After all, he himself didn’t read many books. Later, in order to pretend to be a book, he spent money to buy a cabinet of books. In order not to waste the money that pretends to buy books, Xiao Qi also developed to read books. As a pastime.

Going out and dragging some theoretical philosophies at random, it really happened to have caught the eyes of a few more difficult leaders. After that, Xiao Qi became more focused on reading books than this career.

So in Xiao Qi's view, it is not the best way to get a diploma from studying and going to school. The key is to be willing to work **** your own and have a motivated heart. As long as you don't starve to death and freeze to death, then nothing can resist this person's advancement or even success.

Peng Laoliu murmured something with emotion, Xiao Qi accompanyed a few words appropriately, then patted Peng Laoliu on the shoulder, and said the topic, "Brother Liu, since the Yangtze River does not want you to work too hard, so is it." Children have filial piety. Besides, reading is not the only way out, right? I think Changjiang came out of high school at a young age, thinking about how else I would teach him to measure?"

"Even if you get worse in the future, you can apply for a job as a construction worker for a second-level certificate and be affiliated with a company, and you can earn a salary of tens of thousands of yuan and 100,000 yuan a year, and you will be able to support your family."

Peng Laoliu was really stunned. After the stunned, he was a huge surprise. He was so excited that he held Xiao Qi's hand and shook his hands straight, "Boss, are you really willing to teach my baby to measure?"

That's a real technology that can last a lifetime. It's like the ordinary people can't find a way, even if they are smart, they have nowhere to learn.

Xiao Qi smiled and nodded, letting Peng Laoliu get excited, and while excited, he must have made up his mind to repay him well. Peng Laoliu, Xiao Qi, did not choose randomly.

Although his temper is bad, his skills are really good.

Peng Laoliu was over excited, and he remembered that he wanted to repay Xiao Qi. After thinking about it, he patted his chest with Xiao Qi, “Boss, I can’t be stingy when you are so generous. A few people, let everyone quickly learn to do more work for the boss."

For a veteran like Peng Laoliu who is groping for a little bit of the learning, it is definitely easy to lead people, because he has personal experience in all aspects, so he teaches people more meticulously.

This day can be said to be a full harvest, and Xiao Qi is very satisfied.

Peng Laoliu beckoned Gong Changjiang to come over, and told Gong Changjiang about this. Xiao Qi gained the gratitude of the young people's admiration and admiration.

"Work hard, let your dad take a good rest if you make money in the future."

Gong Changjiang was motivated by Xiao Qi's words.

I also gave the workers kindness and encouragement. Before Xiao Qi shouted, the workers who had been resting had already consciously put on the shovel and started to work on their own.

Xiao Qi is also not special. He also took a shovel and went to work in the gap when he was instructing the unloading. During the period, someone joked and laughed and he would not stop it, as long as he had the strength to say that he had the strength to laugh and the strength to move slowly. The work is done, there is no need to make the atmosphere too heavy.

"Boss, someone is looking for you!"

In the afternoon, Xiao Qi was at work. He had just turned on the big wheels of the excavator and lit a cigarette with the driver for a while. Lao Lai ran over and called him.

"Look for me? That's fine, Master Li, I'll go there first, you rest for a while, I'll come back later."

Crushed stones are first pulled in by trucks and stacked in piles, and then roughly leveled by the master excavator, and then carefully leveled manually. After the leveling is completed, a large 20-ton roller can come in and crush the road. .

Xiao Qi needs to follow the command throughout the whole process. After all, Xiao Qi controls the thickness, and if the command is good, the follow-up manual will not be too laborious.

If he could rest for a while, of course, Master Li had nothing to say, he nodded quickly, raised his hand and wiped his sweat with the towel on his neck, and jumped out of the digging machine cab, which was as sultry as a steamer.

Although Province C is notoriously sultry, finding a cool place anywhere is more comfortable than being stuffy in a cab full of iron studs.

Xiao Qi couldn't figure out who would come to him. If the workers in Area B or Zhang Fugui and Zhang Fuqing came to him, there would be no need for Lao Lai and them to call for help, and he would come directly.

Xiao Qi thought about it, and even the "Xiao Qi" family members who had been forgotten by him were picked up by Xiao Qi, but he didn't expect that it would be Ning Qian who came to him.

The author has something to say: Xiao Qi: What does it mean to spend the same money to buy two? Spending other people’s money to win people’s hearts is really earning
