20 The life of a migrant worker begins with moving bricks

One day in mid-March, Qin Luo appeared in Songjiang City in the northeast, bringing nothing but his mobile phone and some cash.

Songjiang is next to Inner Mongolia, and the weather is still very cold in the morning and evening, so Qin Luo got a green military uniform and went to the labor market.

Hundreds of migrant workers gathered here, many of them still holding signs with the words "carpenter" and "lacquer worker" written on them, and some people were playing poker and glancing at the intersection from time to time.

Qin Luo immediately thought of the group performance at the old East Gate, but it was more noisy here.

"Carpentry carpentry, forty a day!" At this time, someone came to recruit workers, and many people immediately surrounded them, and Qin Luo also joined in the fun.

"Let's talk about it first, the craftsmanship must be passed, don't look bad when the time comes!" The recruiters were vaccinated in advance, and their attitudes were no different from those assistant directors who recruited group actors.

"Don't worry! I don't want money!" a thin middle-aged man patted his chest.

"Okay!

The middle-aged man was decided, and then two more were picked and taken away by the recruiting piece.

Such a scene will be staged in a while, Qin Luo found that as long as there is craftsmanship, there is no need to worry about running out of food, bricklayers, rebar workers, painters, carpenters, scaffolding workers...... It's very finely divided.

Before I knew it, I arrived in the morning, and there was an aunt who specialized in selling rice on the side of the road, four steamed buns for one dollar, meat dishes and vegetarian dishes, two meat dishes, and one vegetarian dish.

Many migrant workers carry enamel jars with them, buy a vegetarian dish and two steamed buns, and squat on the side of the road for a while to eat. There are also people who buy meat dishes, mostly young men who are strong and strong.

Qin Luo couldn't buy an enamel jar for a while, so he asked his aunt to make him a vegetarian dish in a plastic bag and eat it among the migrant workers.

It may be that he is hungry, or it may be that the people around him are eating very fragrantly, Qin Luo feels that this meal is not bad, and the cabbage vermicelli has a unique flavor.

After eating, Qin Luo lit a cigarette.

A man with a big face walked over licking his face, nodded at Qin Luo, and said, "Brother, come to a cigarette." ”

Qin Luo hesitated slightly, took out one and handed it to the other party.

"Hongta Mountain, yo! good smoke!" the man's expression was very exaggerated, and he took a puff.

"Brother, what kind of work are you?" the man and Qin Luo sparked a conversation.

"I want to go to the construction site. Qin Luo said.

"Go to the construction site, you don't have to wait here to go to the construction site, you can go directly to the foreman wherever you want, you can do it first, and you can stay and work for a few days!"

Qin Luo said: "Then why don't you go?"

"Me?" the man froze for a moment and said, "I don't like that, I'm not free!"

As soon as the man's voice fell, there was a ridicule next to him: "Fuck the bart! Why don't you say that people don't want you? Look at your fat, is there any fatter than you? Like a dog jumping every day!"

"You dog basket, get out, what's the matter with you?" the man immediately stopped.

Not to be outdone, the other person said: "Damn, you say it again!"

"You're!" the man stood up.

The other stood up.

Seeing that he was about to stage a full martial arts, Qin Luo flashed to the side, found an honest-looking migrant worker, handed over a cigarette, and asked, "Brother, where is the largest construction site in Songjiang?"

There is a northern suburb park in Songjiang, green water rockery, the scenery is good, and the 300 acres of land further north have been taken by the city's largest real estate development company, and the project is called Park No. 1, which is the largest construction site in Songjiang at present.

In the afternoon, Qin Luo came to the construction site of Park No. 1.

"Who are you looking for?" accompanied by the roar of the mixer, a middle-aged man wearing a hard hat asked Qin Luo.

"I want to come and work as a small worker. Qin Luo replied with a tugging voice.

"Little worker?" The middle-aged man looked Qin Luo up and down, and asked, "Have you done it before?"

"I've done it!" Qin Luo was full of anger.

The middle-aged man pursed his lips, seeing that Qin Luo was white and pure, he didn't believe it, and said: "Seeing that you are tall and big, then try it, twenty-five a day, just go directly if you can't stand it." ”

"Okay!"

In this way, Qin Luo became a small brick worker on the construction site.

At the construction site in 03, a dump truck has been used to move bricks, but the loading and unloading still have to be done by hand, Qin Luo and a dark man took a shift, and transported it one by one.

The man didn't speak, he didn't have any expression, and he did his job like a machine.

The two of them transported more than a dozen carts in a row, and the man suddenly waved his hand and squatted aside to rest.

Qin Luo felt a little funny, but he didn't squeak, took out a cigarette and handed it to the man.

The man waved his hand, signaled not to smoke, picked up the large cup not far away and took a sip of water.

Qin Luo also felt a little thirsty for a while, so he asked the man, "Where did you buy this water cup? I'll buy one later." ”

The man pointed out of the construction site, then suddenly pointed to his mouth.

"He's mute!" someone laughed out loud.

Qin Luo was stunned for an instant.

The mute surnamed Wang is a long-term bricklayer on the construction site, with no friends, but he works very sincerely.

At the end of the day, Qin Luo felt fine, but Wang Mu babbled and pointed to the lime pond and said something to him.

There was laughter on the side, and he said, "The dumb king will let you take a bath at night and sleep well." ”

Qin Luo smiled dumbly at the king.

The dumb king also smiled.

The middle-aged man wearing a hard hat settled his salary with Qin Luo and asked, "What's the matter?"

Qin Luo's face did not change and said, "It's okay." ”

After Qin Luo left, the middle-aged man came to Wang Du's side and said, "Dumb, is that young man working?"

Wang grinned dumbly and gave a thumbs up.

The middle-aged man nodded.

That night, Qin Luo found a nearby small hotel, fifteen yuan a night, until before going to bed, he didn't feel too tired, that is, the muscles in his calves sometimes jumped faintly.

Early the next morning, Qin Luo opened his eyes with difficulty, and there was a feeling of numbness all over his body.

As he sat up from the bed, a wave of ache enveloped him.

"Oops!" Qin Luo gritted his teeth in pain, and moved to the bathroom step by step. I didn't feel better until I finished washing, but my body was still very sore.

After breakfast, Qin Luo appeared at the construction site again.

The middle-aged man didn't say anything when he saw him, but just pointed at the dumb man.

Qin Luo came to Wang Mu's side, Wang Mu's grin, and the day's journey of moving bricks began again.

When he moved to the morning, Qin Luo didn't feel any soreness.

Getting up on the third day is much easier than the second day.

……

Five days later, the middle-aged man found Qin Luo and asked, "Do you want to follow for a long time?"

Qin Luo nodded hurriedly.

That night, Qin Luo moved to a temporary dormitory at the construction site, and his temporary shop was Wang Mu.

In the entire dormitory, there were about forty migrant workers sleeping, and the upper and lower floors of the Datong shop, Qin Luo and Wang Dumb were on the second floor.

The quilts and mattresses were all newly bought, but Qin Luo didn't sleep well, because the snoring was too scary, like a night of firecrackers.

But in any case, he has already taken root in the migrant workers, and the next step is to start taking on the role, Qin Luo has to become the taciturn Yang Zhigang with a sharp blade one step ahead!
