Chapter 244: A Hymn to Labor

When the things were moved to the vicinity of the garage, Colette's brother-in-law tried those tools, and they were all working normally, and the power supply Xia Mu had already helped to turn it on, so he said to Gao Xi: "Mr. West, it is best to lay canvas or plastic sheeting under this window, so that the materials cut on the wall will fall directly, and it will be convenient to clean later." ”

"There's one in the canvas company, I'll go get it." Colette volunteered to get the canvas, but within two minutes of entering, he ran out again, saying that it was too heavy for him to carry alone.

Helplessly, Gao Xi ran in to help again, not to mention, Colette is really not too weak, this canvas is indeed a little heavy, that is, Gao Xi's body has been transformed by the magic spring, and his strength is a lot greater, basically one person tops four or five people, so this can be easily moved out, and then leave a window under the pounce, the ventilation fan is also put in that position, although the wall is metal, but there will definitely be pieces falling down, and it is indeed easier to pounce on things.

As soon as the things were laid, Colette's brother-in-law shouted, "If you are afraid of noise, cover your ears quickly, for it will be very noisy later." ”

After speaking, the professional put a protective mask on his face, that thing should be metal, and it can also be worn directly, after all, cutting metal is a very dangerous thing, and protecting his face is a necessary thing.

As the sound of the cutter sounded, Gao Xi couldn't help frowning, this sound really felt very bad, too noisy. So he quickly took out his headphones and put them in his ears, and put on a piece of music to fight the terrible noise.

You can see that all the things cut from the wall have fallen on the canvas and plastic sheeting, and when the time comes, you can just roll up the canvas, but if it falls to the ground, there is a sewer underneath, and there are small holes, and it is estimated that there is no way to clean it after falling in.

"Don't listen alone, listen to me too." Lu Chengfeng took out a headset from Gao Xi's ear. He stuffed it into his ear, but was stopped by Gao Xi.

"What are you kidding, couples only listen to songs like this, and go along."

"What's the big deal?" It didn't take long after Lu Chengfeng walked away. actually drove his Toyota SUV over, and then clicked on the outside, and the violent music actually covered up the cutting noise for a moment.

"Damn, you kid!" Gao Xi took off the headphones and gave Lu Chengfeng a thumbs up.

"Hehe, that's good, isn't it? It's a lot more rub than your little headphones. "Lu Chengfeng, this guy works like a serious person, but when he really plays, he feels like a child, and it stands to reason that this job is serious today, but when these two come, they treat this place as a playground."

"Mr. Xi, it's probably the first time you've done this kind of rough work, I heard that rich people in China hire nannies to do their own work, is there such a thing?" Over there, Colette's father was busy with his own business, ready to wait until all the window openings were made before continuing to be busy. I could take a break now, so I came over to talk to Gao Xi.

Gao Xi smiled and said, "Do you think I am such a rich person? A few months ago, I was still doing drudgery that many people can't imagine every day, and I had to get up before five o'clock every morning to milk the goat, and then take it to the county to sell, and when I came back, I could eat the first bite of food, and I was reluctant to buy it in the county. In fact, in our country, many people used to do this kind of window installation by themselves. After all, they were too poor at that time, that is, in the past few years, the technical content of these jobs has come up, and people have gradually become rich. That's why I went to ask for someone. ”

Colette's father smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. West actually came from the poor." Look at your age, you are not yet thirty years old, and you have millions of assets, which is really amazing, much more powerful than that kid in my family. If Mr. West is going to clean up the house in the future. You can also call me or Colette, his brother-in-law is an expert, as long as it is your job, we can do it for you as soon as possible. Actually, I also speak Chinese, and there are more and more Chinese coming to the United States, and most of us are doing Chinese business, so it doesn't hurt to learn a few words of Chinese. ”

As he spoke, the old man, who was actually in his fifties, had learned a few words, but to Gao Xi's ears, the Chinese really had a Hong Kong flavor, and even some words were pronounced in Cantonese, but they were still generally understood.

"Hahaha, the old gentleman speaks good Chinese, quite standard. But my ranch isn't close to San Francisco, so if I really want your help, will you go there? Gao Xi said with a smile.

"Of course I'm going, although it's a little farther, but if you drive, you can get there in a day, and we will definitely work hard to do something for Mr. West." Colette's father obviously intended to pave the way for his son, who said that American fathers don't spoil their sons? It's just nonsense.

"You seem to have fun doing this kind of thing, don't you?" Gao Xi didn't know much about these old people in the United States, he only knew that his father and mother were like this, they enjoyed it when they worked, and they felt uncomfortable when they didn't work, so he asked this question.

Colette's father smiled and said, "I've been busy for half my life, and if I just stop doing nothing and have fun all day, I'm really a little unbearable." In fact, these jobs, I am willing to do it, my family said that I was old, not let me do it, but I said, I am only in my fifties, still young, even if I can't do technical work, can't do heavy work, but can always give a miscellaneous or something, and you can also change the car on the road, I am most afraid that others will say that I am old, that I am useless, that is more uncomfortable than killing me. ”

Gao Xi laughed and said: "I originally thought that the old Americans are very different from the old Chinese, but as far as my parents are compared with you, they are really similar, they are all idle lives, don't look at me making so much money, but my parents said that they don't need me to support them." That's why I'm still paying them. ”

"Sounds like your family is on good terms."

"The same goes for you." Gao Xi laughed.

"Yes, people are old, and they don't have much pursuit, they want their families to be harmonious, you must also know that many things in our United States are more open than China, so children are also easy to learn badly, fortunately, my three children are doing well, Colette is my youngest son, I was worried that he would be unemployed after graduation, I didn't expect to meet a good person like Mr. West, not only gave him a job, but also gave him shares, thank you so much."

"Don't say that, this studio belongs to Mr. Xia, not mine. Besides, this studio is so small, aren't you afraid of wronging your son? Gossi asked with a smile.

"Don't be afraid, Silicon Valley was also built from scratch, whether it is Apple, Microsoft or IBM, which of them is not built from the beginning. As far as I know, Tiffany jewelry was not as good as you in the beginning, but now it's one of the world's luxury tyrants, and even many Hollywood actresses wear their jewelry. ”

This old man knows a lot, and it is probably because of this long-term vision that he will especially thank Gao Xi and Xia Mu, who not only gave his son a job, but also gave his son a direction to work on, which is not a trivial matter.

The two sat there chatting and eating fruit, and in the blink of an eye more than an hour passed, during which Colette's brother-in-law and brother also rested for a while, and finally in an hour the window hole was completed, and the garage, which would have been dark without the lights, was now finally bright, and it was really a decent studio to install the windows.

By the way, the owner of the garage also came to see it during the period, and muttered crookedly for a long time, but he was not very happy anyway, and he didn't leave until Xia Mu gave him the money.

Gaucy now basically understands that no matter what country it is, there are good people to get along with, like the cowboys on his ranch, like the Colettes, and of course there are difficult people to get along with, like the owner of this garage, and the congressman he met at the Democratic Party banquet before.

So in fact, there is no need to worry about anything, a lot of knowledge and etiquette learned in China can still be used here, and sometimes it can still get miraculous results.

"Gao Xi, stop talking, it's time for you to be busy, let them take a break, you and Xiao Luzi quickly pack up the garbage and put it in the car, and let Li Qiang drive to the garbage dump to dump it."

"Got it, Sister Mu." Gao Xi also felt that he had rested long enough, and it seemed that he had nothing else to do except chat while sitting here, but this was the work, and he was suddenly excited, so he called Lu Chengfeng and went to pick up the waste together.

He was positive, but Lu Chengfeng was a little unhappy, and shouted at Xia Mu: "Sister Mu, can we not call me Xiao Lu Zi, it sounds like a little eunuch, isn't it good to remove the one in the back?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I can still consider you if you do it well, otherwise I would keep calling it that."

As soon as he heard this, Lu Chengfeng could only stick out his tongue at Gao Xi, expressing his helplessness, and then seized the time to work.

While they were cleaning up the garbage, Colette's brother-in-law and brother didn't have long to rest, and they got busy again, and they got back up the ladder, supported by Rachel and Aduo, and the girls did this kind of easier work, sometimes there were enough people and they didn't need them.

"Brother-in-law Colette, why do you still put those wedges in the doors and windows, what are they for?" Gao Xi had heard that only Chinese would use such things as wooden wedges, but this time he saw Colette's brother-in-law use them, and he was taken aback, so he couldn't help but ask more.
