Chapter 32: The Emperor Lives Up to His Wishes (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Find a job, talk directly to the boss!
People don't want you, give you a "get out", it's embarrassing!
Chen Qiang touched his nose, but he was helpless. Even if it's placed, as long as you're not a god of Sanhe, you have to look at an ID card to find a job. He fled like this, has no relatives and no reason in Shanghai, and it is even more difficult to find a job in Shanghai.
Moreover, the car dealers in this concession are different from those outside the lease.
The car dealership outside the lease is Gu Siye's industry, Gu Siye is a righteous person, and often helps the villagers from northern Jiangsu, and the requirements for the coachman are not so strict, Chen Qiang, a refugee, as long as he works steadfastly, he can be a coachman under Gu Siye.
The concession is different, this Jin Jiulin's character is obviously not as good as Gu Siye, nor is it as impatient and righteous as Gu Siye, this is the French Concession, there are many foreigners living here, for the sake of safety, the selection of the coachman must also know the roots.
Jin Jiulin himself is a patrol in the French Concession, and his job is to maintain law and order in the French Concession.
Therefore, like Chen Qiang, who has no relatives and no foundation in Shanghai, the rickshaw dealer in the concession is categorically refused.
The fat shopkeeper's "roll" made Chen Qiang feel his resoluteness.
After all, this car dealership is Jin Jiulin's industry, and he is the small leader of the Green Gang, and the fat man in front of him is also a disciple of the Green Gang, and Chen Qiang can't afford to offend the characters in the gang. provoked people and beat Chen Qiang, he had no place to reason!
So Chen Qiang didn't continue to argue, and turned around and left directly.
But Chen Qiang's heart was full of unwillingness, and he finally found a lucrative career, thinking that it was another village, and the eggs and roast chicken began to beckon to him, but he didn't expect that it would be a mirror after all.
"If I can't be a coachman, I have to go back to selling newspapers! The little income of being a newsboy really can't supplement nutrition. No, I'll have to try again. Chen Qiang made up his mind, he didn't plan to give up just like that, so he simply found a place to sit down at the door of the car dealership.
The fat shopkeeper knew that Chen Qiang was sitting at the door, and did not drive him away, nor did he pay attention to him. Maybe on weekdays, the fat shopkeeper has seen more such people.
Chen Qiang sat at the door for more than an hour, and the fat shopkeeper looked at the account book for more than an hour.
At this time, few people have entered and exited the car dealership anymore, and the drivers have already received the car to do business, and the time to return the car is not yet yet, so the car shop seems a little deserted.
……
A rickshaw came running in the distance, and it came straight towards the car dealership, stopped at the door of the car dealership, and then a man in a suit got out of the car.
The man in the suit immediately attracted Chen Qiang's attention, and Chen Qiang judged that this person must be working with foreigners, and only those who work with foreigners will wear suits. Other decent workers, such as teachers, clerks, and bookkeepers, generally wear long shirts or coats, while those in government departments mostly wear tunics.
I saw the man in the suit jumping out of the car in a hurry and saying to the coachman, "Wait for me here, I have to go back." Then he walked straight into the car dealership.
"Tian Fat, Tian Fat!" Before the man in the suit walked in the door, he shouted, and his tone seemed impatient and arrogant.
Chen Qiang raised his head and looked into the car dealership, only to see that the fat shopkeeper saw the man in the suit entering, immediately put down the account book in his hand, hurriedly stood up, and got up to greet him.
"Mr. Chu, what kind of wind gave you out!" Tian Fatzi had a smile on his face, and the fat meat squeezed all his facial features together, and instantly turned into a licking dog.
This scene fell into Chen Qiang's eyes, and Chen Qiang couldn't help but secretly think: "What is the origin of this man in a suit, who would make the fat shopkeeper kneel and lick like this?" ”
Tian Fatzi personally brought a chair, wiped it with his sleeve, and then said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Chu, please sit down, I will pour you tea." ”
"I don't have time to drink tea!" The man in the suit sat on the chair and said with a big grin: "Send me a car, find a new one, and pick up people at the dock!" ”
"Okay, I'll send it to you right away!" Tian Fatzi hesitated for a second, and then asked, "Mr. Chu, is this time also a foreigner?" ”
"Nonsense, it's not a foreigner, I still have to come in person!" The man in the suit looked at his watch as he spoke, then stood up and said, "You remember, the guest to be picked up this time is an American, named Ramos, who is on the passenger ship Will from the Philippines. Take notes, don't mess things up for me. ”
Tian Fatzi nodded and said, "How can you hope, Mr. Chu, with you, it's not like you will pick up whoever you want." ”
"I'm not going this time, today the British Minister Mr. Lampson is coming to the Lodge, I have to go back and get ready, so that I can receive the British Minister, how can I go to the docks to pick up people now!" Okay, you write it down, take the person to the Licha Hotel, I've already booked a room for him. The man in the suit said as he stood up and was about to leave.
"Mr. Chu, you stay!" Tian Fatzi quickly ran in front of the man in the suit, and said, "Mr. Chu, do you have a photo of that foreigner?" I can have people pick up people with photos, so as not to pick up the wrong ones. ”
"Nope." The man in the suit replied very dryly.
"Then tell me what this foreigner looks like, right? Is it tall or short, fat or thin? Tian Fatzi asked with a smile on his face.
The man in the suit glanced at Tian Fat, and said: "I don't know what Mr. Ramos looks like, I haven't seen him, he is the first time to come to China." ”
"First time in China?" A bitter expression appeared on Tian Fatzi's face, and he asked, "This foreigner can't speak Chinese, right?" ”
"Nonsense, it's the first time I've come to China, of course I can't speak Chinese!" The man in the suit snorted coldly.
"Mr. Chu, you're embarrassing me, I don't have a photo, I don't know what it looks like, and he doesn't speak Chinese, how can I pick up people!" Tian Fatzi said with a complaining face.
"Stupid! Don't you still know his name? Don't you know the flight number? When the time comes, you will ask which ship is from the Philippines and who is Mr. Ramos, and you will receive someone! The man in the suit spoke.
"Mr. Chu, if it were you, you would be able to pick up people when you went there, but the coachmen under my command couldn't speak foreign languages! We went to ask people, but foreigners didn't understand; We don't understand what foreigners say! How do you think this person can pick him up? Tian Fatzi said.
"You're not going to find a coachman who can speak foreign!" The man in the suit said with some strong words.
"Mr. Chu, if you can speak foreign language, who will come to be a coachman!" Tian Fatzi still has the expression of Xianglin's sister-in-law.
"I don't care about this, anyway, you have to take someone to the Licha Hotel for me!" The man in the suit paused for a moment, and said in a threatening tone: "This is what Mr. Wilson ordered, if you can't do it, don't say it's your Tian Fat Man, or your master Jin Jiulin, you have to go around without eating!" ”
Tian Fatzi nodded grovelly, but he had already scolded the man in the suit ten thousand times in his heart.
"Traitor! Minion! Quisling! If it weren't for the foreigners behind you, I would have found someone to kill you! What's so majestic, it's not a dog for foreigners! Tian Fatzi scolded secretly in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face.
As the man in the suit said, Mr. Wilson behind him, that is a figure that even Jin Jiulin can't afford to offend, no matter how powerful this green gang is, it is only a gang, and it has to be coaxed down in the face of warlords with guns, not to mention the big man among foreigners. That Mr. Wilson is a big man among foreigners, even the "three tycoons" in Shanghai have to pay for their smiling faces when they see it, and Tian Fatzi will never dare to offend.
So Tian Fatzi could only accompany him and explain with a smile: "Mr. Chu, this clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, you just kill me, and I can't find a coachman who understands foreign languages, or you will work hard, go in person, and I will arrange the best car for you, the most stable driver." ”
"If I had time, I would have gone long ago, didn't I tell you, that I was going to prepare for the reception of the British Minister, and that there could be more important than this? If you neglect the British minister, you will be guilty! The man in the suit put on a fake look.
The conversation between the two in the room was all listened to by Chen Qiang outside the door.
"It's really the emperor who lives up to his wishes, I have waited for most of the day, and I really waited for the opportunity!" Chen Qiang was overjoyed. Tian Fatzi is in urgent need of a foreign-speaking coachman, and Chen Qiang, who can speak English and French, happens to be a foreign-speaking coachman.
So Chen Qiang stood up and walked in.
Tian Fatzi also saw Chen Qiang walk in, at this time he pretended to lick the dog in front of the man in the suit for a long time, but he didn't lose any benefits, he got angry and had nowhere to vent, and after seeing Chen Qiang, he suddenly had a goal to vent.
"Didn't I tell you to fuck off! Why are you here again! Looking for death is not! I'm going to break both of your legs today! Tian Fatzi rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat someone.
Tian Fatzi didn't dare to offend the man in the suit, and didn't he dare to take Chen Qiang out of anger!
Chen Qiang, who was opposite, was not in a hurry, he opened his mouth and said: "Shopkeeper, I will speak foreign language." Let me pick you up at the dock! ”
