After returning to the city.
Ji Huai became busy again. During the time he went back, Zhang Qi had been working on the construction site, but he didn't know many things.
When he returns home, he will continue to be busy. There is a lot of work waiting for him. Together with Xu Guojie and Fang Yizhou, they get up early and work late at night. Sometimes they are busy from seven in the morning to ten in the evening.
The workload was heavy, so he paid them a salary of one and a half days, and in the end it was directly raised to forty-five days.
Also includes three meals.
However, the plumbers and electricity workers are sometimes very busy suddenly, but there are also many periods of time when they take a break and wait for work in other types of work.
If it’s just a construction site, you won’t make much money.
Ji Huai would not sit still and wait for death. From time to time, he would sneak to Brother Qiang's construction site, invite him to drink tea, chat, and then cooperate with him to brag.
"Have a nice cigarette." He sat opposite Brother Qiang, smiled and reached for the cigarette, as if he had won a prize.
In fact, he hasn't smoked in a long time.
"You kid, haven't you been busy lately?" Brother Qiang still valued his hard-working quality and thought he had some skills, so he looked at him from time to time.
"You're not busy. Let's take a break and goof around." Ji Huai lit a cigarette and asked half-jokingly, "Brother Qiang, do you have any work to introduce to your brothers?"
Brother Qiang didn't reply immediately. He also took out a cigarette and lit it, took a puff, flicked the cigarette ashes to the side, and said slowly, "Recently, a residential building was built in Yan'an, and my cousin is in charge of it. The construction site really lacks your type of work, and it seems that we need to bid for it."
Halfway through, he stopped talking.
Ji Huai also noticed it and said with a smile, "Brother Qiang, help us brothers and make money together. My wife and children are waiting for dinner at home."
"The price doesn't matter. As long as I can keep doing it, I'll accept it. There's nothing I can do about it. The child needs to drink milk powder."
When it comes to profits, iron relationships cannot hold on.
How can I step in? It's just that if the price is low enough and the other party is given enough benefits, there will be a way out.
Bidding and other things are in a gray area.
Hearing this, Brother Qiang also laughed and took another puff of cigarette, "I saw that your hands and feet are quick and your workmanship is relatively fine, so I will help you set up a line."
"Thank you, Brother Qiang." Ji Huai said quite sincerely.
In fact, I know deep down that he is a cheap labor force. By pushing him up, they can gain some profits from this line.
And he also needs a chance to break into this circle.
Soon, Brother Qiang took Ji Huai to see the supervisor, looked at the drawings and calculated the price. When he made the quotation, he put two fingers on the table and clicked, looking at the supervisor with some anxiety and expectation.
At first glance, he looked like a "newcomer" doing this for the first time.
The supervisor raised his brows and quickly returned to his polite expression, naturally weighing in his heart.
When he went out and looked at Brother Qiang, he was nervous and excited again, "Brother Qiang, please excuse me. If you can do it this time, I will give you a dollar share."
One dollar here, of course, means one dollar per square meter, and the rebate will be as much as there are square meters.
It’s almost a translucent rule within the circle.
"Is there any trouble?" Brother Qiang saw that he knew how to handle things, and felt comfortable in his heart. He waved his hand, "It's all trivial."
You can earn thousands of dollars by setting up a line. Who wouldn’t want to do this kind of business
This was what Ji Huai was waiting for. As long as he didn't refuse, he would definitely put in a good word for him. After all, the price was low and the supervisor was afraid of quality problems.
The role of Brother Qiang appeared.
Sure enough, two days later, the supervisor informed him to sign the contract.
As expected, Ji Huai was extremely excited and quickly invited Brother Qiang and the supervisor to dinner.
Toasts and cigarettes.
The look on his face revealed gratitude and desire to become a person of their level who was young and energetic and could create profits for them.
Bosses and superiors like this kind of person the most, so naturally they look down at him.
"Brother Qiang, drink." Ji Huai said while pouring wine for him. He was good at talking and his posture was low enough.
When facing the supervisor, he was polite to the end.
We eat, drink, and chat together, and even say what the other person wants to hear, "If I become like Brother Qiang and Brother Xu in the future, my wife and children won't have to work so hard with me."
After saying that, he took a sip of wine.
Don’t men just flatter each other and brag when they are together? Of course, a little guy like him hasn't reached the stage of comparing with them.
In the eyes of others, you are just cannon fodder.
After eating, the supervisor was so happy that he paid more than fifty yuan for the meal and patted him on the shoulder, "Work hard, young man, there are still many opportunities."
Ji Huai was terrified.
After watching them all leave, he sat down and the smile on his face faded little by little.
When you are at a trough, you can only move forward by letting go of your face, your attitude, and bending down, and just work hard. Only in this way can you have a chance to grasp the upward rope.
Turn over as quickly as possible.
As the night progressed, he dragged his slightly tired body to the door of his home, took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and then opened the door, "I'm back."
"Run, run, run."
"Giggle."
…
What greeted him was Aiqiao clapping her hands and making noises, while in front of her, the little guy crawled quickly.
He was laughing while climbing, his eyes were crooked, and his saliva was still flowing down.
Since the little guy can crawl, he has crawled very quickly, crawling around everywhere, and is very happy.
Seeing his son on the ground, Ji Huai suddenly felt relaxed and knelt down to look at him. The little guy quickly lay down in front of him.
The little head looked up at him, smiled, and exposed the baby teeth in his mouth again, blowing his little mouth, "Puff puff puff..."
"Run again." Ai Qiao clapped her hands again and raised her voice.
"Ah... cluck...! @##..." The little guy thought his mother was chasing him, so he crawled on all fours quickly and threw himself into Ji Huai's arms.
"Catch it, catch it." Ai Qiao raised her voice two more times behind her, and the little guy thought that his mother was getting closer, so he hid in his father's arms while shouting.
Ji Huai hugged him with tenderness.
Ai Qiao looked at the father and son, and also smiled, and walked aside to heat up the supper made for Ji Huai.
He hugged his son and said to her, "That building is next. It will be a little harder this year, but you will make more money."
"Very good." Ai Qiao nodded.
"This place is too small. Earn enough money to buy a big house." He said, looking at his son in his arms, and said, "You can hide and play hide-and-seek with your mother in the room."
There is just a small house here, and the little guy can't find a place to hide even when crawling. He often covers his head with clothes with a distressed look on his face, pretending to be hiding, so his parents can't find him.
"Yeah..." The little guy nodded seriously.
Ai Qiao laughed, handed the noodles to Ji Huai, and touched his son, "Do you know what dad said?"
"Well..." He fiddled with his little head again, acting cute and cute.
Ji Huai looked at the big one and the small one, the corners of his mouth curved up, and his eyes deepened.
I didn’t seem to know why I was so busy in my previous life, but now I feel I have some sustenance. Isn’t it just for the sake of my wife and son? When working hard, some people still cook bowls of noodles.
I feel more energetic at work.
