Chapter 4: The Imperatives of Life
"We need skilled workers with work experience. ”
"The internship lasts for six months, and at the end of the internship, you will decide whether to extend the internship based on your performance. ”
"We only recruit graduate students here. ”
In the month when I came out to look for a job, I was constantly rejected for such and such reasons, the money in my pocket was already gone, and Wang Qing was not smooth, but the reason for her unhappiness was different from mine, she was because she was too beautiful, and she was always harassed by the boss and employees of her unit, and she kept changing jobs, and she was annoyed by the change, so she simply rested at home for a while.
It's a new day.
I have been an orphan since I was a child, and I have long adapted to the feeling of being pushed around, but I used to work part-time only to think about my livelihood and tuition, but now I not only need to pay off debts, but also think about Wang Qing's future, so I have to find a job with fast money.
Although I had been prepared for this stormy life, I finally felt that I was a social person, and I was no longer a pampered college student.
I had to save some money for lunch, so I squatted with the decoration team who was picking up work on the street, asked for two meat buns, and began to gnaw on them as if no one was around.
A pair of shiny leather shoes stopped in front of me, and I didn't bother to care who it was, and continued to squat in place and nibble on my meat sandwich.
"Hey, boy. The owner of the leather shoes spoke: "We still have a lacquer worker here, will you go?"
I looked up and saw that the person standing and talking had blocked out the sun's rays, leaving me with all shadows, and I couldn't see the person's facial features clearly, and an inexplicable sense of oppression arose.
I shrugged my shoulders: "I'm sorry, big brother, I'm not a painter, I just passed by here to eat meat and steamed buns." ”
"I know, you don't look like you're doing decoration, but we are short of people for decoration there, and the painters here don't know where they died. ”
Of course, I won't get along with money, whether it's a short-term job or a long-term job, as long as it's earned with money, it's all useful work! I didn't even ask the destination and followed the big brother of leather shoes.
I followed Brother Leather Shoes into a Jinbei, forgive me for really calling him Brother Leather Shoes, because he never said a word to me along the way, let alone submit a substitute name.
The golden cup is full of people, and it is conceivable that the amount of work should not be small.
A big brother wearing a red hard hat has been staring at me since I got in the car, he touched his chin with one hand, and looked me up and down carefully like a thief, which made me very uncomfortable.
There is no way to let him keep staring at me like this, I can only break the deadlock first: "Big brother, is there anything wrong with you? Or do you look at me as if I am dressed like I am doing decoration?"
The eldest brother does not speak.
"Big brother, you can talk about something. ”
The eldest brother remained silent.
"Big brother......" I tried to raise my voice, and another thin big brother next to me patted me on the shoulder and explained to me: "Young man, don't scream, he is a deaf and dumb person, it is really inappropriate to keep staring at you, I will make amends for you for him." ”
It turned out to be a deaf-mute, so it's no wonder, after the deaf-mute loses one of the six senses, the other five senses will have a certain degree of functional amplification, my dress is incompatible with the other people around me, no wonder this deaf-mute brother will keep staring at me, I quickly waved my hand and said: "It's okay, the main thing is that I don't do decoration,
I was temporarily pulled over today, I guess this big brother is curious why I am dressed differently from the people around me, hello big brother, what should I call you?"
"You just call me the third brother, everyone in this decoration team is called that, I am the foreman of this decoration team. "I didn't expect that the third brother, who looked thin and small, turned out to be the foreman.
The third brother patted me on the shoulder, looked at me and smiled and continued: "Lao Tiantou in our team has rheumatism, lying at home and can't move, he is usually in charge of painting, I will trouble you today, but you don't need to make difficulties, your work will be very simple today, I will guide you around." ”
Said to be pointing, in fact, I was afraid that I would mess up the matter of the painter, the foreman was more sleek, he looked at me with a smile, and I could only cater to him and laugh together: "Thank you, third brother, you can just call me Xiao Wu, and then ask the third brother for more advice." ”
The third brother smiled and nodded, and introduced the other people in the decoration team to me.
Of course, except for the deaf and dumb big brother who kept staring at me, oh yes, the third brother said that his name was "Qin Yueya", and everyone called him Old Qin Tou.
After a long journey, a carload of people finally came to the construction site, and the bumps along the way made everyone confused, and a few got off the car and vomited directly.
I only knew here that we needed to construct the largest hotel in Lizhou - Orchid Garden Hotel, I saw on the news some time ago that the KTV here was burned out because someone deliberately set fire, but who set the fire was not mentioned in the news. It seems that today it should be going to the KTV side of the Orchid Garden Hotel for construction.
The third brother waved his hand, beckoned me over, pointed to a box in front of him that had been cemented and said to me: "Your job today is to paint this wall white, I'll come over later, if you are qualified, I will arrange other jobs for you, and Lao Qin will guide you on what to do." ”
It seems that the third brother didn't expect me to paint these walls at all, and arranged for the only mute to guide me in my work, isn't this a joke? I can't hear what he says, and he can't hear what I say, doesn't he want to pay me? But there is no way, who called me a temporary worker, so I can only agree stubbornly: "Okay, listen to the third brother." ”
Seeing that I was not very happy, the third brother saw the thoughts in my heart, smiled and comforted me and said: "Xiao Wu, don't worry, although Lao Qintou's mouth is not bright, but his eyes are very bright, he will compare with you step by step and teach you what to do." ”
"I hope so. "I had no choice but to laugh with the third brother.
After the third brother left, there were only me and Lao Qintou left in the room, and he couldn't hear it, so I had to go over to greet him, and smiled and waved his hand in front of him, but Lao Qintou still stared at me.
I was a little angry, I picked up the wool brush and shook it vigorously in front of him twice, and finally, he took the wool brush from my hand, dipped it in the interface agent, and began to show me.
The house was eerily quiet, except for the sound of wool brushes working on the walls, and no other sounds.
Suddenly, there was a slight movement on the sofa in the corner, and Lao Qin Tou and I looked at the sofa at the same time, and the chandelier in the room was no longer effective because of the previous fire, so I couldn't see what was on the sofa at all.
I made eye contact with Old Qin Tou and pointed to the sofa, meaning that I was going to see what was going on.
I walked over slowly, and when I looked closely, it was a man who had fallen asleep, how could there be a person lying here?
