Chapter 88: No Comparison, No Harm
Back at the ranch, Jian Heng immediately found a very serious problem, there was not a single worker in the big dormitory, and the side that built a house for himself was in full swing.
Jian Hengxin said: Damn, what's going on, could it be said that this group of people didn't drink their own water yesterday?
After thinking about it for a while, I thought it was impossible, but I remembered very well that when they left at night, they drank up a large pot of water, and no one drank the vegetable soup at noon.
Just when Jian Heng was entangled, Zhang Jialiang rode a horse and walked over.
Seeing Jian Heng looking at him, Zhang Jialiang said: "Brother Heng, I went to see the cow, everything is fine over there, your big gray cow is not beating people anymore, not only did he not beat people, but he also took the cattle to pick up the most lush grass to eat."
"How's the leg? Does it still hurt? Jian Heng raised his chin slightly, concerned about Zhang Jialiang's physical recovery.
Zhang Jialiang writhed a few times on the saddle: "It doesn't hurt anymore, as long as it's not too much of the movement, there's no problem." By the way, brother, your medicine is amazing! ”
"Add Yunnan Baiyao, plus some cool medicine, or do you think it has this effect?" After Jian Heng said a word at him, he then stretched out his hand and pointed to the empty dormitory construction site.
Frowning his hair, he asked, "Do you know why these people didn't come today, didn't they come, or because they were late?" ”
When Zhang Jialiang heard Jian Heng ask, he immediately smiled and said, "Brother, what day is today?" ”
"What day? On the days of work, Lao Tzu is still waiting for the opening, do you still want to take money for these goods? Jian Heng said very dissatisfied.
Zhang Jialiang listened to it and said happily: "Today is Labor Day, a three-day long holiday, not only you can't see them today, but you still can't see them in the next two days!" ”
As soon as he heard about Labor Day, Jian Heng couldn't help but lean in his heart, thinking carefully that today was really the time for the Labor Day holiday.
Our Chinese Labor Day is May 1st, and Americans' Labor Day is the first Monday of the first week of September, usually at this time the United States is a three-day holiday.
The American people usually don't work on holidays, and as for why there is no figure in one engineering team during the holidays now, there is a lot of contrast between the other engineering team and the other engineering team.
The reason is very simple, the engineering team of the dormitory of Jianda is mainly white and black supplemented by the engineering team, in their opinion, going to work is to work, you can't arrive early for a minute, you can't leave late for a minute, you can't come and go a little bit, and it is impossible to start work on natural holidays or something.
The other engineering team, which is mainly made up of Mexican immigrants and is owned by a Mexican businessman, work much harder because they know that if they don't do their jobs well, work harder than whites, and earn a better reputation, they will lose their jobs.
And work is a very, very important thing for them, it is the source of the family's life, once lost, then it will be difficult for them to find a job.
Therefore, everyone from the boss to the workers cherishes their work, and for them, working an extra day means getting an extra day's wages, and their families are more secure.
"Damn, how did I forget this stubble!" Jian Heng scratched his head, and said in his heart that if he had remembered this earlier, he would have hired Lao Mo's engineering team to do this work at the beginning, and even if Kalispell had a construction team pulled up by the Chinese, he should take care of the business of his compatriots.
After thinking for a while, Jian Heng said, "Things are so simple! ”
"What's so easy?"
Jian Heng's words were a little too jumpy, and Zhang Jialiang didn't understand what his boss meant.
Jian Heng explained and said: "What I said is that the next thing is simple, go, call the boss of the construction team, Seresto, I have a new job to hand over to them, see if he can do it."
Zhang Jialiang nodded after hearing this, and then asked casually: "What kind of work?" ”
"Your dormitory in the future, I plan to build a row there, and I plan to build eight rooms first," Jian Heng said.
Hearing that a dormitory was going to be built, Zhang Jialiang immediately became energetic: "How big is the room?" ”
"How big do you expect, a forty square room, a bedroom, a small living room, and a simple kitchenette bathroom" Jian Heng casually reported the approximate area, this thing is all the same, every building component is produced in the factory, and then transported to the place where it is needed to be assembled.
Of course, the area of such a house is large and small, the smallest is almost half of the kind that Jian Heng wants, but Jian Heng doesn't want that kind of house, usually such a house is for the kind of people who have just come to the United States, or illegal immigrants, or people who are at the bottom of the society, and who are only a little better than beggars.
"It's good!" Zhang Jialiang didn't pick it, he was happy to hit a dozen horses, and then ran towards the construction site of Jian Heng's new residence on the small slope.
In just five or six minutes, a middle-aged Mexican man with a dark complexion and a wrinkled face appeared in front of Jian Heng.
"Mr. Jean, are you looking for me?"
Seeing Jian Heng standing under the porch, the moment Seresto got out of the car, he took off the hat on his head, took it in his hand and put it back in the car, with a smile on his face, he stretched out his hands and prepared to shake hands with Jian Heng from afar.
Serestor's actions made Jian Heng feel very comfortable, taking off his hat showed that he was conscious and willing to respect Jian Heng as a funder, changing to a white person would not necessarily think of this, they were full of equality or something, and they didn't care too much about this aspect at all.
Equality is a good thing, but most people like to talk about equality when others are on their own, and they can have a high profile towards others, and Jian Heng is naturally not exempt from vulgarity.
Although Jian Heng doesn't necessarily have to care about this, if the other party does this, it can indeed add a little impression to him!
"I'm going to build eight single dormitories in that area, the prefabricated ones, each with an area of about 400 square feet," Jian Heng said.
Seresto is engaged in this business, Jian Heng understood it as soon as he said it, but he still confirmed it with Jian Heng, and then said some very subtle requirements, what are the requirements for thermal insulation and warmth, and according to the weather in Montana, whether he needs to install heating or choose a small fireplace or something, in short, he asked everything he could think of.
"That's it, you see if you have time, I need to finish it as soon as possible, preferably within ten days," Jian Heng said.
"In addition to your house, there is a large exercise room, which I certainly don't have time to do myself, but I can help you ask one of my colleagues," said Seresto.
Jian Heng listened and nodded: "I have two requirements, one is fast, and the other is to ensure quality."
"Don't worry, he's doing a good job, and you're not a particularly complicated job, so you won't have a problem," Seresto said with a smile.
After speaking, he saw that Jian Heng didn't seem to have anything to say, so he motioned for himself to go out and call his friends.
About two or three minutes, under Jian Heng's gaze, Seresto turned back, quoted a price to Jian Heng, and said: "If you agree, I will ask him to come over in the afternoon to discuss the details with you, if it is agreed, the construction will start in two days at the latest, and it will be completed within a week!"
The price is a little more expensive, but people have shrunk it for a few days, and the total price is actually not expensive.
"Okay! Make an appointment, I'll be free all afternoon," Jian Heng said.
"At four o'clock that night, I asked him to come over and talk to you about the details in person," said Seresto.
"Well, thank you then," Jian Heng said.
Ceresto said: "I should, I hope you will think of me as soon as you need anything in the future!" If nothing happens, I'll go to the construction site."
"Go ahead!"
Looking at the back of Seresto walking away, Jian Heng let out a long sigh: "These old beauties are yelling that others have robbed them of their jobs, and they don't look at what they are doing, they just work like this, the speed is not as fast as others, the price is still higher than others, and they are still a little emotional at every turn!" ”
"Hehe, now white people don't want to hire white construction teams when they want to find someone at home! Who doesn't want to save time and time, it's just a pity, we don't seem to have our Chinese construction team here, or the cheaper work is better! Hey, why can't Trump see the essence of Americans raising lazy people, there is no competition at all! ”
When Zhang Jialiang heard his boss say this, he immediately complained.
Both of them have mixed up in New York and know that white people work too easily, and white people of the same level, the same job, white people can easily be poached by headhunters, while people of color are completely different.
Zhang Jialiang didn't suffer from this anger in the early days of his work, and it was strange that he didn't have fire in his heart.
"As long as you talk a lot, hurry up and get to work!" Jian Heng was about to kick him, but he was dodged by this kid with a smile.
Who knew that this scene was seen by the Big Wheat and Wheat sisters who had just come out of the house, and they saw Zhang Jialiang walking away, so they said to Jian Heng.
"Heng, you're not right, you're bullying!" Mai said solemnly.
Damai didn't wait for Jian Heng to answer, he opened his mouth and said, "You and Zhao both have such behavior, this is very bad!" I think you should think about how other people feel."
Jian Heng was a little dumbfounded, and was stunned for a while before he said, "Do you think I did this to someone else?" ”
Big Barley thought for a moment, looked at each other, and then shook his head at the same time.
"You see, this is our intimate way, I didn't look at Zhang Jialiang to see him as an employee, you may not understand this when I tell you, but if you don't believe it, you can ask Zhang when I'm not there, or ask Zhao Hehuang to see what they think of me or Zhao Changshan" Jian Heng said.
Jian Heng also didn't want to explain anything to the two sisters, the expression of this intimate relationship between the Chinese would not be understood by the Americans, just as the Chinese could not understand some of the behavior of the Americans.
For example, if the uncle has the ability to help his nephew get into a Ivy League school, if the two families are not particularly close, the uncle will not write a letter of recommendation to the nephew.
This is in China, let alone a nephew, even if it is a cousin, he will take a hand.
Hearing Jian Heng say this, the two sisters began to think about this question in their minds.
"Okay, you think about it first, I'll go see the cow here" After Jian Heng finished speaking, he walked to the bolted horse pen in front of the house and began to prepare the horse to throw the saddle.
Riding on the horse, Jian Heng trotted directly in the direction of the herd, I have to say that the newly bought quarte is much better than the old bad horse before, and after riding the inferior horse and riding this quart, there is a feeling of unity between people and horses.
Rushed to the vicinity of the herd, Jian Heng found that everything looked very good, the big bison was walking on the grassland with the herd, occasionally two cows looked up at Jian Heng, and then leisurely lowered their heads, picked up a mouthful of grass, and chewed slowly.
Seeing Jian Heng coming, the big bison mooed at Jian Heng twice, and then ran over with a trot.
"Okay, let's play while we go" Jian Heng saw the big bison coming, reached out sideways and patted its back, and then let it graze.
There were not only cattle in the herd, but also a Mushu guy mixed in, none other than the big black horse black beans that were transported back yesterday.
At this time, the black beans had already removed their brins, and now they were mixed in the middle of the herd, and when they saw Jian Heng coming over, they looked in the direction of Jian Heng with their heads held high.
"Sample, what to see, without me, your best result will be a father-in-law!" Jian Heng said with a smile at the black bean.
Seeing the vigilant look on his face, Jian Heng suddenly became interested and wanted to play with it, so he untied the noose on the pile head, first tied a knot, and then carried it in his hand.
"Uhha!"
Gently knocking the horse's belly with both feet, and when the master ordered the quart, the horse's hind legs kicked hard, and directly threw up two mud blocks on the grass, and rushed forward violently.
Seeing that the quartma rushed towards him, and Jian Heng on horseback was still holding a lasso in his hand, there was something that Hei Dou didn't understand, so he directly spread his legs and prepared to slip away.
