555.Painting for all (1/5)

Wang Bo called Aturu, and more than a dozen pickup trucks drove up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was too much exterior paint to be used this time, and he bought more than 200 barrels, and all of them were large barrels, so he couldn't pull them back with just one or two pickup trucks.

Returning to the town with these exterior paints, someone greeted me just after parking and asked, "Hey, mayor, you want to paint the exterior of the house?" ”

Wang Bodao: "Yes, you have to take care of these houses, don't you? Protecting the town's beauty is my duty as mayor. ”

"But I heard you employ a lot of Maori? That's not a low salary, isn't it? ”

Wang Bo shrugged: "The New Zealand dollar has depreciated so much in recent years, and I can spend this money to invite people, to be honest, I have thanked God for loving me." ”

The middle-aged man who spoke laughed, and then said: "Actually, there is no need to do this, you shout, we will finish the painting of the house ourselves." ”

Buildings in residential areas are allowed to be sold by Wang Bo, and the prices are very low. As for the buildings in the center of the town, he almost only rents, and of course the rent is also very cheap.

He can leave the houses sold out of his hands, but the houses that are rented out are still in his name, and he has to rely on them to make money later, so he has to take care of the painting work himself.

It's just miserable, he has sold very few houses now, and most of them are rented.

This is in line with the national conditions of New Zealand, New Zealanders do not have a house purchase plot, the main reason is that the country's household registration and the house and land are not related, so people do not have the concept of having to buy a house.

For young people, buying a house is a hassle, renting is cheaper and more flexible, so they can go wherever they want, and once they buy a house, most people need to take out a loan, which locks them into the local area.

Many people come to Sunset Town, except for the parents who come to ACG's prestigious school in the back, others because of the town's scenery and cheap rent, as well as the economic development potential brought by Highway 8.

And Wang Bo also saw these potentials, so he rented the house in the center of the town and sold it in the residential area.

As a result, people want to buy a house in the commercial area of the town center but they don't sell it, and the people don't buy the house he wants to sell, so he eventually has to hire someone to repair the house......

In fact, the situation was more optimistic than he thought, and he learned that he had prepared tools and exterior paint to maintain the house, and many people came to get the paint themselves, without Wang Bo having to arrange for someone to paint the walls.

The afternoon sun was shining, and there was a long queue in the supermarket plaza, and people came to get exterior paints and tools.

In the newly opened New World Boutique Supermarket opposite, the store manager and waiters were dumbfounded, they were blocked by the crowd, they couldn't see what they were doing, and they thought that the department store was selling things crazy.

The bearded store manager, who likes unspoken rules and female subordinates, also came to line up, but Anderson saw him and teased, "Hey, Nelson, are you going to paint the exterior of the house too?" I don't think so, didn't your supermarket just be built? ”

The bearded store manager knew that he had done oolong, but he was embarrassed to turn around and leave, and said strongly: "Of course, our supermarket is brand new, which is different from your old supermarket, but wouldn't it be better if you could paint the exterior wall more often?" ”

Anderson shrugged, "yes, better, but are you sure you can brush it?" If you hire workers to paint the walls, you'll need to tighten the curtains in your office so that people don't see things they shouldn't. ”

Nelson's face suddenly turned red: "Fake, what are you talking nonsense!" ”

Anderson grinned, "What do you say? Do you need me to be clearer? ”

How could the bearded store manager not know what he was talking about, he scolded weakly, and quickly turned around and left, to be honest, he was really afraid that Anderson would come up with any evidence.

Wang Bo, Atulu and Uncle Bing received a copy of the exterior wall paint, and they also had to work, the town government office building has been under construction for more than two years, and there are mold spots on the exterior wall in some places.

Hill, who was crackling on the keyboard in front of the computer, saw them come back with exterior paint, and his face was full of confusion: "What are you guys doing here?" ”

"It's not 'you', it's 'us', we're going to change clothes for the house together, come on, you have to work too." Wang Bo said happily.

Hill reluctantly said: "The great writer is creating, and the thoughts are like a spring......

"You are like Wen Siru, you have to work for me on a horse!" Wang Bo viciously left such a sentence.

There were a lot of dirty things attached to the walls outside the building, and even some moss grew behind the house in the shade, Aturu wiped it with his hand, shook his head and said, "I can't wipe it off." ”

"To deal with these stains, you have to use a wire brush or a high-pressure water gun to knock off the dirt on the surface, and then wipe it dry before you can repaint." A voice rang out, and Wang Bo looked back to see that it was Somali cleaner Suladi.

The big black man in blue overalls laughed, "I'm here to help you, Mayor Mare, and I bet there's no one in town better at cleaning these things than I do." ”

Wang Bodao: "If you want to make some extra money, then I can hire you, do you have experience in painting?" ”

Suradi shook his head and said, "No, Mayor Town, I don't want money, I'll help you, that's what I'm supposed to do, isn't it?" I mean, I've always wanted to help you do something. ”

It would be better if there was a helper, Wang Bo high-fived him, and then arranged for the Mexican pretty boy to prepare a high-pressure water gun to spray all these things away.

Suladi looked at the exterior walls, took the scraper and scraped it on a burst of old paint, and he explained, "You can't keep these things, or the new paint will burst open quickly, even if it can hold them down." ”

From noon to afternoon, many people in the town were walking around the house, making some tourists or passers-by by car confused, thinking that this was a town-wide cleaning.

Before four o'clock, Wang Bo and others first repaired the primer of the house under the guidance of Suladi and Hani, and did not apply the topcoat during the day when the sun was strong, otherwise it would dry too quickly, which would cause the paint on the surface to wrinkle or burst.

It doesn't take long to repair the primer, after all, it's a new house, and only occasionally the primer is broken in some places.

Wang Bo looked at the patch-like paint on the originally beautiful white building, shook his head and said, "This house is too hard to maintain. ”

Hani said bluntly: "Boss, it's just that the quality of the paint used in the building block house you bought is too poor, but in fact, the maintenance is not so troublesome." ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's only been two years, theoretically the primer shouldn't burst, the primer should be much more durable than the topcoat, I remember my house, it was five years before the primer needed to be repaired."

Wang Bo: "Made, profiteer! ”

It didn't take long to repair the primer, it was done in an hour, and the rest of the time, they painted the wall on the north side of the small building in the shade. (To be continued.) )
