The maintenance of the roof was a top priority, and a morning was spent on it, from seven o'clock to twelve o'clock.

Wei Er led his men to start work, and after Qin Shiou came down, he walked over and said with a smile: "Hey, Mr. Monopoly, why did you come to work in person?" Is it to experience the suffering of the people? ”

Qin Shiou gave him a punch and said, "Don't come to yin and yang, man, you know that I am a little expert in work." ”

"Actually, you don't have to work, I'll just get a few guys to help you deal with it, I'm an expert at this - of course, it's free, who makes us good fellows?" ”

Qin Shiou shook his head regretfully and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" Now that I'm doing it with the boys, it's okay for me, the boys won't agree. ”

Weil turned his head to look at the children who were grabbing the white mud in their hands and smearing each other, and his face was full of questions: "You're not kidding me, are you?" What are these guys doing? ”

Weiss and Shaq Jr. scuffled together, the masks didn't know where to go, their faces and hair were covered in white mud and dust, and Gordon and Krakenson were shouting cheers; Shirley is there to pinch the pony with white mud, and Michelle runs to the cold drink hut to make drinks, and Powell is the only one there to do the work.

Qin Shiou went up and separated the two of them with his ears, Weiss stretched out his middle finger, and the little Shak monster screamed and was about to pounce again, he had to take out a big killing weapon: "Whoever is making trouble, then deduct fifty yuan!" ”

A group of children were honest immediately, and they only earned seventy-five yuan in one morning.

Lunch was very simple, Qin's father and Qin's mother prepared a set of pork ribs, rice and fried fish, all of which were enough, everyone could eat some at will, and the main meal was in the evening.

It's a habit in Canada that they don't pay attention to lunch and eat a little casually. Then wait until the evening for a big meal.

Weil followed with two large bowls of pork ribs and rice, he ate the ribs and exclaimed: "Qin, I found that everything you have here is delicious, this lamb chop tastes amazing, and this is still stewed, I want to eat it grilled." Tastes better. ”

Qin Shiou smiled: "The main reason is that it doesn't cost money to eat here with me, and if you spend money, you will definitely not think it is so beautiful." ”

These muttons do taste good, because today the fishermen helped repair the house, and the George couple also came, Qin Shiou wanted to make a big meal in the evening, so he killed a sheep.

The body of this sheep also contains the energy of the sea god, the meat quality has been well improved, and the taste is extraordinary.

In the afternoon, the boiler, heating pipes and central air conditioning will be repaired. This all needs to be overhauled every year, in the past, Qin Shiou paid someone to do it, and the total cost was about 500 Canadian dollars, and today he just did it himself.

The boiler of the villa is used for both oil and gas, which can burn natural gas or oil, and since the current price of natural gas is much lower than the price of oil, the villa burns natural gas.

A boiler is an essential appliance in a Canadian home, and its role is to heat the house. It is equivalent to independent heating, which is much more powerful than air conditioning. Also more affordable than air conditioning. Winters in Canada are too cold for air conditioning alone to heat the house, requiring air conditioning, boilers, and fireplaces to work together.

This set of boilers is also a legacy of the past, which is an old-fashioned vertical boiler, and now the most common is a gas wall-mounted boiler, through which the water is heated by the boiler. The pump is then pressurized to form a hot water cycle to complete the heating process.

When the temperature rises in spring, the boiler will not be used, as long as the air conditioner is fine, Shaq turned on the boiler and checked it, shook his head and said, "No." Replace the boss, the water pressure pump is already rotten, and it may explode if you use it again. ”

After Qin Shiou looked at it, he found that the boiler was indeed aging, not only because there was a problem with the hydraulic pump, but also because the thermostat and water separator were aging badly, so he found someone to contact the boiler manufacturer and replace it completely.

"It's cumbersome enough to replace a complete boiler." George looked at it and said, "The underground coil and heat sink have to be replaced, I said Qin, you are bold enough, these things have to be replaced in ten years, how many years have you been here?" ”

How did Qin Shiou know? He asked Auerbach, who thought for a moment and said, "This is just before my father died, only fifteen or sixteen years, right?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Shiou himself was afraid, but in this way, the underground coil does not need to be replaced, and this thing can be used for fifty years.

Auerbach said regretfully: "It's better to replace it, unfortunately, as far as I know, the underground coil has not been replaced since the villa was built, and the working time must be sixty years, right?" I was a little bit when I built the villa. ”

Qin Shiou was helpless, and said with a wry smile: "In this way, I might as well build a villa again." ”

This is really troublesome, to replace the underground coil, then the villa floor must be uncovered, which is equivalent to rebuilding the floor.

But it's okay, the floor should be changed anyway.

The installation of the boiler heating system is very complicated, time-consuming and troublesome, the plumbing company sent someone to check the situation on the same day, and then told Qin Shiou: "You have to return this set of equipment, we need to lay the water coil and control line first, and then install the water separator and boiler, and finally install the thermostat and debug the system......"

"How long?" Qin Shiou asked with a headache.

The engineer calculated: "Your villa is too big, it will take a long time, about four days to lay pipes, four days to install the boiler, and one day to debug, which does not include the time spent on the cooperation of the front and rear processes, in short, at least ten days." ”

Qin Shiou said helplessly: "The fastest, don't think about money, how long can it be the fastest?" ”

Once the floor was removed, the villa would be uninhabitable, and he would have to move out with all of his staff.

The engineer touched his nose and said, "If you don't care about the money, the staff will be doubled, the time will be halved, and it will take about five days......"

"Faster, four times as many people!" Qin Shiou put on a posture of arrogance and money.

The engineer looked at him funny and said: "Sir, this is not as simple as one plus one equals two, if there are more people, the efficiency will be reduced, I let the company speed up, then it is estimated that it can be done in four days." ”

In Canada, as long as it involves repairing pipelines and replacing pipelines, it is relatively fucked, and all the maintenance costs related to pipelines are relatively high.

Moreover, inspectors and maintenance personnel are billed on a per-hour basis, counting from the time he leaves the office, including the time he spends in traffic jams on the road. However, work such as replacing pipes requires a licensed professional to do it, otherwise even if an individual can do it, it is prohibited by law.

Of course, in order to save money, as long as it is not a big problem, Canadians will still do it themselves, just don't have an accident. But once something happens, it's over, because of the illegality, the insurance will not be responsible, and all the expenses will have to be borne by themselves.

The boiler needs to be replaced, Qin Shiou goes to see the central air conditioner, and if it doesn't work, this one has to be replaced. (To be continued.) )
