Chapter 8 Mecha Repair Shop
In the extremely hot noon, there was not a trace of clouds in the sky, there was not a trace of breeze in the space, and the air seemed to be stagnant.
The World Trade Plaza (New Humans) is full of people, and the hottest food street is the food street, where half of the people in the square are concentrated.
Lu Chen was not exempt from vulgarity, he first ordered two stir-fried dishes and tasted them, and after finding that the taste was good, he packed one for Zhang Yue, and walked towards a shop about mechanical maintenance.
Mechanical maintenance is Lu Chen's old profession, when Lu Chen chose to major in college is mechanical manufacturing and maintenance, his academic performance is among the best, and even has reached the point where he can stay in school.
But the income of the teacher's profession can only be regarded as average, and it can't meet Lu Chen's requirements at all, he needs money, a lot of money.
Because when he was in college, Lu Chen once designed a new type of mechanical exoskeleton armor, he believed that once it was manufactured, it would be able to usher in the crazy pursuit of the world, but no one was optimistic about him at all, so he planned to make a lot of money and make it little by little.
Thinking about it now, I was still a little naïve.
Before Lu Chen walked to this mechanical maintenance shop, he saw a fiery red sign hanging on the tall gatehouse, and the four big characters of Cangyu Machinery were engraved on the top of the brand, which looked very magnificent.
Especially the two red mecha standing at the door, which firmly attracted Lu Chen's attention at the first time.
As soon as Lu Chen came to the door, he saw a young man who was combing to kill Matt and kick the parts on the ground, and then shouted loudly.
"Whose is this? Hurry up and move Lao Tzu away."
"It's coming, it's coming!" The elementary school apprentice in blue overalls and covered in oil stains waved his right hand and hurried over.
"Why are you again? Silently chirping all day long, like a girl. ”
The young man raised his right foot and kicked the abdomen of the junior apprentice who was bending down to pick up parts, turned around and walked to the warehouse to drive a locomotive, and drove out with a big stab at Lu Chen's side.
The junior apprentice was obviously accustomed to the behavior of the teenager, he silently put away the parts on the ground, and then greeted Lu Chen with a smile on his face.
"Ha, I'm sorry, the child is not sensible, don't worry."
"You are..."The junior apprentice apologized to Lu Chen very politely, and there was no embarrassment on his face that he had just been kicked, only enthusiasm and sincerity.
"Ah, it's okay, I'm looking for a job, you see, you don't have a shortage of people who can do car repairs?"
Lu Chen informed the junior apprentice of his requirements, obviously not caring about what happened just now, after all, he was here to find a job, not to find trouble.
"Car repair?"
"Okay, then you come with me, and I'll take you to our boss."
The junior apprentice looked at Lu Chen suspiciously, but out of professionalism, he didn't say much, and still greeted Lu Chen warmly, he took Lu Chen to the mecha maintenance site and introduced him to Lin Yu, the boss who was personally repairing the mecha.
Lin Yu was nearly forty years old, and he looked very young and in his early thirties, and after hearing that the junior apprentice said that someone had come to apply for a mecha maintenance engineer, he looked at Lu Chen very happily.
"Haha, college students who are still in school, want to use the summer vacation to do part-time jobs?"
"It's good, I also support work-study students like you, unlike that kid in my family who doesn't know how to help every day, but only knows how to go out and surf." Lin Yu put down the work at hand and looked at Lin Hao with a smile.
He recently met a few work-study students, and it was natural that he regarded Lu Chen as a college student who subsidized his family, and continued to speak kindly.
"So, S$1,400 a day, think about it?"
Lu Chen's heart was slightly calculating this price, and he was no longer ignorant of the society of the new human race through the light brain.
If it is an ordinary border town, this kind of salary is not small, but in a prosperous city like Hit, there are not many, except for the necessary three meals a day, there will be less than 500 Singapore dollars, which is not enough for two people.
Their current situation is best to be able to buy a hovercar in case of emergency, even if they buy the cheapest hovercar, it will take 18 years without eating or drinking to save enough money, and a precarious life like Lu Chen simply does not have enough time.
"Uh... Actually, my car repair skills are pretty good, and I think you can pay a little bit more. Lu Chen continued to explain with some embarrassment.
"Okay, come on boy, do you see that modified race car, as long as you can fix it up, I'll give you a salary of 3,000 a month."
Lin Yu wiped his hands with a rag and looked at Lu Chen with interest, this kind of modified racing line is very complicated, without excellent observation ability, it is difficult to repair the racing car at all, he plans to see what Lu Chen's real level is?
If Lu Chen really had the ability to repair the racing car, it would not be a loss to spend 3,000 to hire him, and he now needs this kind of person who can stand alone to help him share the pressure.
In the last few months, his business has been extremely hot, and as the boss, he often works day and night for several days. It's ridiculous to think that he, a mecha repairman who is stuck at the threshold of an intermediate mecha repairer, actually wastes a lot of time on repairing cars every day.
A few elementary school apprentices in the store complained again and again, many times they had to work overtime until midnight to go home, and the next day they had to go to class honestly before they slept enough, if it weren't for Lin Yu's salary was not low, it is estimated that they would have stopped working a long time ago.
Lu Chen sat in the cab and turned the key to light, but he didn't hear the expected engine roar starting, only the "bang" sound of the motor driving the cylinder piston.
He stepped on the accelerator a few times, twisted the key again, and the result was the same, and there was no change at all.
Lin Yu understood as soon as he heard it, what was going on with this car, most of the mecha repairmen would work part-time to repair vehicles, of course, Lu Chen didn't have a mecha at that time, but he also put a lot of effort into repairing cars.
As Lu Chen gradually checked the circuit, he finally found a problem, in fact, a plug on the back of the engine was a little rusty.
He asked the apprentice for a new one, reinstalled the ignition system, and walked over to the boss with great confidence.
"Yes, very good! You will come to work with me tomorrow, the young man is very excited, and the brain reaction is also lost, I am very optimistic about you. ”
Lin Yu's face was full of smiles when he said this, his eyes were full of approval, and the junior apprentice on the side could see that the boss was very satisfied with Lu Chen, and he was also very happy in his heart, so it was okay, he would be able to relax a lot in the future.
"That's okay, thank you boss, it's decided, I'll go back today to prepare, and I'll come here to work early tomorrow morning, and I promise not to be late."
Lu Chen nodded slightly, then lifted the meal that had already been packed aside, and walked in the direction he came from without looking back.
