Foolish Man

Chapter 16:

Xiao Qi has been busy for two or three days and then started to install the stone along the road. The size of the concrete material is 50x30x12, ten yuan per meter, and the familiar master can install more than 100 meters a day.

Xiao Qi pays 40 yuan a day for big workers and 30 yuan a day for small workers. It is not high but not low. The key is to have work every day.

There was only Peng Lao Liu who was a great worker. Lao Lai and the others were all working on building houses, and Xiao Qi himself ended up as a great worker.

At the beginning, Xiao Qi and Peng Laoliu will settle down for a while, and the speed is slowed down, mainly to let others see clearly and understand. The general points that need attention are explained carefully. Most of the day, it will almost let Lao Lai them. Go and try each, and bring a small worker around to help move the curbstone or make a slot.

On the first day, I didn’t get much results, mainly because Xiao Qi and Peng Laoliu would go to see other people’s work from time to time. If there were any problems, they would call out to ask carefully on the spot. Xiao Qi was not in a hurry, and bought them for everyone at night. I chopped up two roast ducks and gnawed on the side of the road. "Everyone is not discouraged. Let's go slowly. No one is born to do anything. I believe that as long as we persist, our life will definitely get better and better!"

After a few words of encouragement, Xiao Qi said good news, "Boss Zhu will settle a sum of money for us when we are finished with Luyan Shi’an. Then I will settle most of the wages for you first, and you should keep living expenses. The living expenses should be sent back to the mothers and children of the old family."

"Let's work hard this summer. It will definitely be okay to finish the work at home and go to school. We can also buy a new schoolbag and new clothes to make the children happy."

After Lao Lai and the others moved out of the shed, Xiao Qi found a place for them to stay in a nearby building temporarily. The houses here were basically completed, but the security doors and window frames had not been secured yet.

Xiao Qi called Boss Zhu and said that Boss Zhu had a little friendship with the boss who took the job from Fang Jian, and he let the workers from Xiao Qi's side move in.

On weekdays, washing is at the tap on the bare lawn. The toilet also has temporary public toilets. For meals, Xiao Qi came forward and said to the boss at a nearby fast food restaurant that it would cost five yuan per person a day. The oil and water can be less, but you have to eat enough.

This price is the same as the living expenses deducted by the contractor in the shed, and it can be better than eating in the shed. The only thing is that the fast food restaurant has to settle once a week and pay cash, unlike the contractor who deducts the wages directly.

These were also temporarily paid by Xiao Qi, and the same would be deducted from the wages in the future, which was also grateful to Lao Lai and the others.

However, Boss Zhu has also given assurances that workers will never be allowed to disrupt their work.

Peng Laoliu and his son used to live in the yard rented by the boss, but now they fell out with the boss and moved out naturally. They lived with Lao Lai and they just happened to be off work, so they can talk about their feelings and experience together.

Fortunately, a group of people didn't bring the mother-in-law by their side, otherwise it would have to be more troublesome.

A group of men were living and sleeping outside, but they were all their parents, wives, children, and parents who could pay for their wages. Their tanned faces were all smiles, and they were all in a good mood discussing what to buy for the family’s baby and send it back. .

Last time I saw a colorful necklace thief on the side of the night market. I bought it for my wife and brought it back. I must make the woman happy.

These workers have never met anyone who voluntarily said that they would pay their wages. Although they can only pay part of them, it is already very rare.

In the past, if they wanted to spend money, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and make up some reasons to advance two or three hundred yuan with the contractor, and they had to be cross-examined as if they were asking for charity.

Xiao Qi didn't like to owe other people's wages, because thinking that part of the money in his pocket belonged to others, it felt like a thief was heartburning, it would be better to make a clear distinction from the beginning.

The money in his pocket was clearly marked with his Xiao Qi's name on each of them, and the kind of money that I carried was so good that I felt that it smelled delicious when I counted them.

It was after work in the evening and waiting for the workers to go to the fast food restaurant for dinner. It was not too early. Xiao Qi accompanied the big guy sitting on the roadside in the community, drinking and eating roast duck.

The stomach that hadn't had dinner was almost filled, Xiao Qi got up and packed up, letting Lao Lai and the others go back to rest early.

"Lao Lai, call me if you have anything to do, I'll go home first."

Before Xiao Qitao replaced the mobile phone Xiao Qi originally wanted to go to the night market and sell it squatting, but when he asked the passer-by who had sold it to him, he took it back and gave him only ten dollars.

When Xiao Qi was switched, he lost forty. Xiao Qi thought about taking it back, so he bought a ten-yuan phone card and gave it to Lao Lai, so that he could use it as a public phone in the work team.

But in the future, he won't care about phone bills and the like. Let them take it easy, and it's best not to make calls and just answer the phone.

Nowadays, the mobile phone number of the contractor is usually left by the workers to relatives and friends in their hometown. A good personal phone becomes a public phone, but the workers can’t help it. After all, it is unrealistic to ask them to keep a fixed phone number. Where do they move to the site? Where to go.

Xiao Qi couldn't accept that his mobile phone was used by others. He hadn't told Lai Lai their number before, and this group of people would definitely not be able to continue using it for a long time. So now it's just fine to throw a mobile phone to Lao Lai and the others.

As for who secretly stole the monopoly?

Anyway, it’s their own business. Everyone goes to work together, sleeps together, eats together, and even takes a bath and pee together. If something like this happens, people will definitely find out. Then Xiao Qi can kick people out and get things back. If he couldn't get it back, he still had a salary in his hand, and he couldn't lose a ten-yuan mobile phone.

The things still belong to him, and the group of people who used them are more grateful to him. Even if they are dropped, they can still deduct their wages and directly deduct all the fifty yuan they spent on the original purchase. This transaction is not a loss.

Lao Lai responded with a smile, and the mobile phone in Xiao Qi's pocket on the way back rang the text message prompt on time.

Since Xiao Qi sent a text message to Ning Qian a few days ago, I can't tell who started it every day, so I have to send a few text messages back and forth.

For example, on the first day, because Xiao Qi only replied "good night" after a long time, Ning Qian had turned off and went to bed at that time, so she woke up the next morning and Ning Qian saw it. I'm sorry.

So Ning Qian gave Xiao Qi a good morning in the morning, and explained that she fell asleep last night, and finally she unconsciously said something more about why he hadn’t slept so late, and made popular science. Good health is a principle that all kindergarten friends know.

Having said this, Ning Qian is also afraid that Xiao Qi feels that she is standing and talking and not hurting her back. After all, not everyone can support a family with a salary like her parents, so that although she and her sister can’t be rich, they are not lacking in their pockets. money.

So Ning Qian tangled up again, and finally Xiao Qi received a long text message that was divided into several text messages early in the morning.

Xiao Qi secretly cursed the prodigal wife, and simply replied a text message saying that he was not angry and didn't think much about it and that he was going to be busy.

When I was eating at noon, Ning Qian cautiously sent a text message and asked him if he was busy...

Anyway, Xiao Qi couldn't figure it out. In short, it was Ning Qian who figured out his day's work and rest time, and would always send text messages when he was free.

Seeing that little white rabbit's cautious appearance, Xiao Qi felt distressed and tried not to reply to the text messages, but whether it was for half an hour or a few hours or overnight, he would always be upset and restless in the end.

In the end, he would have to spend a dime to return a text message to the little white rabbit, and that irritability would be replaced by an inexplicable sense of satisfaction and comfort that Xiao Qi had never felt before.

But in just three or four days, Xiao Qi has now given up treatment, went to the business hall to apply for the SMS package package, and sent a few text messages to Ning Qian every day. Quan thought it was spending money to enjoy the kind that made Xiao Qi enjoy. Forget the novel and satisfying sense of comfort.

Comforting himself, Xiao Qi felt more comfortable now, so he also unknowingly went from one or two text messages a day at the beginning to six or seven text messages a day now.

That is to say, Xiao Qi himself didn't pay attention, otherwise he would be a frog that was put in warm water and boiled without knowing it, but would have to put a towel and lie in the water to enjoy it.

Ning Qian saw Xiao Qi quickly replying to the text message, and couldn't help showing a secretly sweet smile on her face. Ning Xi, who had taken a bath and came out of the bathroom, walked by the living room and had a meal, "Sister, you Texting someone?"

God knows that her old sister fell in love at the beginning and did not talk about it. She has never seen this person holding a mobile phone to make a phone call, let alone the performance of a hundred and eighty text messages a day between lovers after mobile phones have become popular.

Ning Xi bent over and looked at Ning Qian up and down. Ning Qian subconsciously covered her phone screen, pursing her lips and flushing her face, and she was a little flustered, "You and your hair haven't been dried yet, go and blow!"

Ning Xi squatted and stood up straight, wearing a tank top and shorts, with a dry towel around her neck, kicked her slippers and stepped on the sofa next to Ning Qian, shaking her legs and acting like a hooligan. Asked, "Little girl, hurry up and explain to the master, have you talked about friends? You laughed so beautifully."

The first thing Ning Qian thought of was the last time she saw Xiao Qi, who was tanned with wheaten skin, curled her brows and squinted at her, then her face became even redder, she held her phone and shook her head, "I just sent a text message to my friend. I just laughed after saying something funny!"

Ning Xi laughed humorously, then she retracted her leg and stopped questioning. Her sister is gentle and emotionally slow. If she asks in a hurry, she might have to distance herself from that "friend".

Although Ning Xi wasn't sure what this man who could make her sister secretly laugh so ripplingly now, he would definitely be better than Xiao Qi, right?

Regarding the relationship between men and women, the most beautiful thing is when you are ignorant and ambiguous at the beginning.

Thinking of this, Ning Xi frowned in distress. She felt that there was a problem between herself and Min Dong, but every day the two of them also chatted on Penguin videos or text messages, but that’s the feeling...

Ning Qian finally coaxed her sister away. Thinking about it’s almost time for her parents to come back, Ning Qian got up and poured two glasses of boiling water for her parents and put them on the coffee table to cool them down. It is estimated that the old couple will also be warm when they come back. Then I packed my phone and went back to the room.

When I entered the room, I just took off my shoes and wanted to go to bed. After thinking about it, I bit my lips and tiptoed and went back and locked the door.

Ning Qian couldn't say why she did it, but she just didn't want to be seen by someone when she texted.

The author has something to say: In the beginning: Oh, the prodigal maiden who wasted money, if you don’t reply, you won’t reply to text messages this time!

Later: It’s good to spend money to buy that kind of novel satisfaction. If you live for two lives, spend some money to buy a spiritual enjoyment. It only costs a few cents at a time, and it’s not too expensive.
