Chapter 61: The Road to Finding a Job
The foreman meant that after Ning Hao unloaded the tools in the trolley, he first went to the material warehouse next to him to receive 20 bags of cement, pulled them to the three piles of river sand on the cement road, and then went to the faucet outside the material warehouse to connect the water pipe, pulled the water pipe to the side of the river sand, and allocated the mortar according to the ratio of cement and river sand 1:3. After that, the adjusted mortar is sent to the location of the stone block in the ash bucket.
Doing physical work is not a problem at all for Ning Hao, who is strong and strong. With Lu Yao's help, in less than ten minutes, they pulled 20 bags of cement to the side of the sand pile, stacked them according to the requirements, and connected the water pipes.
But for Ning Hao and Lu Yao, who have never mixed mortar, it is a big problem. Fortunately, with the help of Wu Jingsheng, the first batch of mortar was adjusted in a short time. Lu Yao and Ning Hao carried an ash bucket full of mortar in one hand, and delivered the mortar to the big workers in the drainage ditches on both sides of the road as quickly as possible.
After Lu Yao helped Ning Hao adjust the second batch of mortar, he saw that Ning Hao had slowly entered the working state and was more handy, so he left the construction site and went to look for work on other construction sites.
Lu Yao decided to look at the various construction sites at the airport first, but he couldn't find a job, so he went outside to look for it. When he was eating breakfast, he also consulted Wu Jingsheng about how to distinguish between the foreman and ordinary workers when he arrived at the construction site.
Wu Jingsheng told him that under normal circumstances, those wearing yellow hard hats are ordinary workers, those wearing red hard hats are middle and low-level managers such as foremen and foremen, those wearing blue hard hats are technicians, and those wearing white hard hats are senior managers and representatives of Party A. Generally, it is the foreman and foreman who are responsible for recruiting and arranging workers to do things.
After Lu Yao clarified his goal, the first thing he looked for was a foreman and foreman wearing a red hard hat when he went to a construction site. In order to increase his chances of finding a job, he will also ask some workers who wear other hard hats, or straw hats.
In one morning, he basically visited all the construction sites northeast of the airport under construction, and none of them needed to recruit small workers.
He wanted to go back to Wu Jingsheng's workshop for lunch, but he considered that he didn't do anything for the boss, but the boss provided him with free accommodation, and felt that he was already very indebted to the boss. Eat the boss's every meal, and I feel very sorry not to go. So he decided not to go back for lunch and continued to look for work on other construction sites.
At noon, the workers on the construction site all went back to the shed for lunch and rest, leaving only a few workers to guard the construction site. Every time Lu Yao saw a worker guarding the construction site, he would take the initiative to ask if he needed to recruit small workers. Without exception, after a noon, there is still nothing.
The exposure to the sun, coupled with the non-stop shuttling around the construction site all morning, Lu Yao's stomach is now rumbling. Although he still had two hundred yuan on him, Lu Yao had already decided that he would not use any of it, and when he saw Fang Fang next time, he would ask her clearly and return it to her.
When his mouth was dry, he walked up to the water pipe on the construction site, with a tap in his mouth, and muttered a few mouthfuls of muddy groundwater. The sun couldn't stand it, so he walked to the back of the cement pole and stood for a while.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the workers returned to the construction site one after another to start the afternoon's work, and Lu Yao also continued his job search.
He decided to look for work in the terminal under construction along the southeast side of the airport in the next few hours.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Yao came to the outside of a temporary gravel yard and saw that it was all mechanized work, which aroused his interest. He wanted to go inside the gravel yard and see up close how these machines turned wool stones of all sizes into regular gravel on the construction site.
As soon as he reached the gate where the large loading and unloading trucks were coming in and out, he was stopped by the doorman standing at the door. Lu Yao wanted to ask if he needed to recruit workers inside, but it may be that the doorman saw that he was not wearing a work permit, and before Lu Yao could speak, he directly raised the rubber rod in his hand and blasted him out.
Curious, Lu Yao did not leave immediately, he climbed up to a mound of earth on the edge of the gravel yard, stood on an abandoned cement light pole, and carefully observed the operation process of several machines in the gravel yard.
He saw that the large pieces of rubble passed through the silo and were sent to the jaw crusher by the vibrating feeder for the first process - coarse crushing, and then the coarsely crushed stone was fed into the cone crusher by the belt conveyor for the second process - medium crushing, the medium crushed stone was sent to the vibrating screen by the belt conveyor for the third process - screening, and the finished crushed stone was sent to the sand washing machine by the belt conveyor, and the fourth process was washed and then sent to the finished material pile through the belt conveyor.
The remaining large particles of stone are sent by the belt conveyor to the vertical impact crusher for fine crushing, and then enter the conveyor belt for screening, and after several cycles, it becomes qualified crushed stone on the construction site.
In the whole process, except for the loading and unloading truck to dump large stones into the silo, three or four workers need to use steel drills to pry some large stones blocking the silo, and there is basically no worker in other places.
Lu Yao wanted to observe for a while, but thinking that his job was still unsettled, he quickly jumped off the mound, picked up a broken straw hat that had been worn under a stone, patted off the dust, and after a little trimming, put it on his head directly, and continued to look for work on the next construction site.
When it was time to leave work, he came to the outside of the terminal building under construction and saw workers wearing various hard hats, still busy on the construction site. Although the most workers wear yellow hard hats, there are also many managers and technicians wearing red and blue hard hats, and even a few senior managers wearing white hard hats can be seen standing on the edge of the construction site.
Lu Yao knew that it was the foreman or foreman who was responsible for recruitment. With so many foremen with red hard hats inside, the chances are bound to be great. So he decided to go inside the construction site and look for a foreman.
Before he reached the gate, he was stopped by two doormen, and scolded Lu Yao for not wearing a work permit and never approaching the construction site, and ordered him to leave the gate immediately. Lu Yao, who looked impatient, had no choice but to wear a straw hat and turn around and leave the waiting building under construction one step at a time.
Lu Yao came to a construction site next to the terminal building non-stop, and asked a few foremen and foremen wearing red hard hats, and the answer was the same, their construction site did not need small workers for the time being, only large workers and medium workers.
