Chapter 3 Moving Bricks

After hurriedly eating a bowl of instant noodles and two ham sausages, Chen Fei picked up a set of long-sleeved sportswear and drove to a construction site in the west of the city.

Due to the scorching heat, all construction sites and construction units in Jiangzhou must arrange construction time in accordance with the requirements of the heatstroke prevention documents issued by the city. According to the document, as long as the real-time temperature reaches more than 30 degrees Celsius, construction is not allowed from 11 o'clock at noon to 2 p.m., and at the same time, it is necessary to reissue the heatstroke prevention and cooling fee, and if the temperature reaches more than 35 degrees Celsius, all construction units must stop construction.

As a construction unit, each project has a construction period, and the work is stopped during the day in order to prevent heatstroke, and the people are not disturbed at night, so there are a number of special types of work on the construction site, summer temporary workers. In order to meet the deadline and not want to pay extra heatstroke prevention and cooling expenses and high medical insurance, the contractor hired this kind of temporary workers to do some low-risk manual work. Although the government department found this kind of problem, but there is no way to stop it, otherwise all the summer will not be able to carry out construction, so as long as there is no safety accident, they will turn a blind eye, and these construction units are also afraid that these temporary workers will have safety problems, so they let these people not be close to the construction area, just do some handling work on the periphery.

Chen Fei also heard his roommate say when he was in college, he still remembered that the roommate moved bricks for more than a month in order to buy a new mobile phone for his girlfriend, and finally saved enough money to buy the mobile phone, but found that his girlfriend came out of the hotel with another man's arm, so Chen Fei comforted the roommate for two days.

As a result, a week later, the roommate had a new girlfriend, who was still a school girl, and later used the new mobile phone to change the school girl's first night, every time he remembered the excitement that the guy came back to show off to Chen Fei, Chen Fei would grit his teeth. "TMD, Lao Tzu poured chicken soup for you, and you sprinkled dog food on Lao Tzu. ”

"Hey, boy, what are you doing? See, 'construction site, idlers are not allowed to enter'!"

When he came to the construction site, Chen Fei was just about to enter when he was stopped by a dark-skinned middle-aged fat man wearing a floral shirt, a briefcase, a hard hat, and a large gold chain around his neck.

"I'm going to move bricks!"

"Are you still moving bricks?" the fat man looked at Chen Fei's thin arms and legs, which he regarded as a joke, shook his head and wiped his sweat, "On this day, it's really hot." He muttered as he walked towards the car on the side of the road.

Seeing that the fat man's posture was obviously the person in charge of this construction site, Chen Fei hurriedly stopped in front of the fat man and said: "Why can't I move? Isn't moving bricks to earn piecework? Move more to earn, move less to earn!"

"Boy, let me tell you, we want strong temporary workers, and I can't afford you with thin arms and legs if you flash your waist and twist your legs. If you want to make money, you have to go to couriers and work as a waiter, and my job is not for you. The fat man seemed to be in a hurry, and he was going to get into the car after speaking.

"I'm here for that, you just let me try, if I can't do it, I don't need you to pick me up, I'll leave automatically, it's all right?" Chen Fei grabbed the fat man's car door and said with a smile at the fat man.

The fat man was annoyed by Chen Fei, but he couldn't get angry, after all, he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, so he had to say: "If you want to try, try it." ”

Saying that, the fat man took out his mobile phone and dialed a number: "Hey, Lao Jia, come out and get someone, I have someone here who wants to move bricks...... yes, not my relationship, huh...... Normal piece counting. ”

Putting down the phone, the fat man said to Chen Fei: "Boy, let me remind you again, moving bricks is not as good as serving dishes, if you sprain or smash yourself, we will not be responsible for your medical expenses." Also, it is not allowed to enter the construction area. ”

"Don't worry, I'll move the bricks, you can move wherever you say!" Chen Fei patted his chest and said.

While the two were talking, a middle-aged man wearing a vest and full of muscles walked out of the construction site wearing a hard hat.

"Mr. Pang, you can't be talking about this kid, right? Although we are short of people, this ...... It's too unreliable!" The middle-aged man named Lao Jia, after wiping the sweat with the towel around his neck, glanced at Chen Fei, and said helplessly to the fat man Mr. Pang.

"Let him try it first, you don't need to let him do those technical jobs, just let him move bricks! That, I still have something to do, you can lead him in!" As he spoke, Mr. Pang turned around and got into the car, and drove away from the construction site as the car started.

"Okay, let's go with me to register first, get a work card, labor insurance, and ID card?"

"Bring it, give it!"

"Chen Fei? Well, you just need to call me Lao Jia with them. ”

"Hmm!"

"College students?"

"Well, just graduated this year. ”

"What are college students doing here? And they have all graduated, how good is it to find a stable and comfortable job?" Lao Jia looked at Chen Fei a little strangely.

"It's hard to find a job, and you don't earn much. It's better to move bricks, not only to exercise, but also to make money, I have a classmate who has moved bricks, and he can earn 200 yuan a day. Where can I find a good job with a monthly salary of 6,000?" Chen Fei suddenly found that it seemed that moving bricks was really "lucrative".

"Two hundred a day, do you know how many bricks a day you can earn two hundred? With your physique, let alone two hundred, it's good to earn a hundred!" Lao Jia looked at Chen Fei with a confident look, and couldn't help but smile.

followed Lao Jia to receive the work card and labor insurance, changed into work clothes, put on a helmet and gloves, and before he started to move bricks, Chen Fei was already sweating profusely.

"Oh, put on your mask, the construction site is dusty. Looking at Chen Fei, who was sweating profusely, Lao Jia couldn't help but smile and handed the mask to Chen Fei.

"Uh...... On such a hot day, you still have to wear a mask?

"It's up to you, I'll send it to you anyway. Oh, take your badge and go to the person in charge over there, and when you see the one with the notebook, he will arrange where you move the bricks. Lao Jia pointed to the "brick yard" with a pile of square bricks in the distance and said.

When he arrived at the site where the bricks were stacked, Chen Fei handed the badge to the person in charge.

"New here?" The person in charge was a young man who looked to be in his thirties, just like Lao Jia, wearing a vest and tanning skin.

"Hmm!"

"Okay, you move these bricks to Building Seven first, Building Seven is over there, see where the flag is planted, and transport the bricks there. This trolley, which can hold fifty bricks in one cart, two bricks per trip, comes back to me every time to record. ”

After the young man finished speaking, Chen Fei pushed the trolley to the brick yard, picked up two square bricks and put them on the car.

"The weight is okay, but I don't know if the distance traveled with the trolley counts as the mission distance. Chen Fei thought as he put the bricks on the car.

Loaded with fifty bricks, lifted the trolley, and before he took two steps, the car went crazy on the stones, and the body was unstable and almost rolled over, but fortunately, Chen Fei put the car down in time and didn't let the car turn over.

"Huh~" Relieved, Chen Fei picked up the trolley again and slowly pushed it forward, for fear of encountering potholes and stones again.

On a path of less than 200 meters, Chen Fei walked for more than four minutes, at this time he walked on a "small bridge" paved by iron plates, on this "bridge deck" less than one meter wide, Chen Fei walked carefully, and when he walked to the middle, this "bridge deck" was still walking and wandering.

"Hey, boy, new here, you can't have this physique, you have to practice!" At this time, a muscular man with a towel pushed a trolley across the "small bridge" next to him, walked like a fly, turned his head and smiled at Chen Fei.

Then a few muscular men passed by Chen Fei, whether it was ridicule or encouragement, Chen Fei didn't have the extra strength to reply, and looked at the road intently, for fear that if the car accidentally overturned the bricks and spilled the bricks, his arms that had been in a tense state were sore and weak.

When he came to his destination and unloaded the bricks, he rubbed his arm and looked at the progress of the mission.
