Chapter 552: Workers
Jian Heng shouted at the truck driver and said, "You can't unload things there, it's all grass, don't you see?" Don't crush my grass! ”
The truck driver happened to want to stop the car, but was startled by Jian Heng's words, and stretched his head out of the cab and asked, "Where is it?" ”
"Front, front, such a big clearing on the other side of the stone platform, where the grass has been rolled bald by the cart, this is it! Drive over and park there! Jian Heng replied loudly.
The driver listened, made an OK gesture at Jian Heng, and moved the car forward.
Seresto was now staring at the container next to the parked stone platform, and after a while, he asked Jian Heng, "So many?" ”
"That's half there, and half on the way!" Where did Jian Heng know what Seresto was thinking, and now he was watching the movements of the truck driver.
Jian Heng saved money on wood and labor, but the total cost was only a drop less than that in China, this is still because of the low results of transportation in the United States, if it is changed to China, it will be transported from the capital to Jian Heng's hometown, and the freight of that guy will be enough for Jian Heng to drink a pot.
Jian Heng paid attention to the drivers parking, and kept muttering in his mouth: "Who is so lazy that the Americans are not lazy in their work, these truck drivers are all big slippery heads, if you don't tell them, they can't wait to unload the container for you at the intersection ......."
Fortunately, this kind of muttering can only be heard by Jian Heng alone, even if Seresto next to him can hear it clearly, with his Chinese level is still at the stage of your good and it is impossible to understand what Jian Heng said.
Even if Seresto understood, he wasn't in the mood to think about it now.
As a foreigner, he didn't understand why Jian Heng wanted to go far and go directly from China to import building components, and at the same time, as the boss of the construction team, he also saw business opportunities from so many containers.
"Don't ......," Jian Heng finished commanding this trailer truck and began to command another one.
Seresto saw Jian Heng say something to the truck driver abruptly, and only after stopping did he ask Jian Heng: "These have to be installed by Chinese companies?" ”
Jian Heng waved his hand and said: "How is that possible, there are only some major technicians sent over there, about a dozen people, stay here for two or three months, and the main assembly and construction will be done by local people."
"Someone took the job?" Seresto hurriedly asked.
Seeing Jian Heng shaking his head, Seresto immediately said, "Then give us this job?" ”。
Jian Heng was surprised and said, "Do you still have the energy to do this job?" The renovation of the big house over there will cost you almost all of your manpower, one and a half to two months, even if I give it to you, you can't eat it, you need at least 30 people here, and there must be a few technicians with experience in operating that kind of big crane, such as the big wooden pillars over there have to use mechanical ......."
Celesto opened his mouth and asked, "Are you going to find a bounty hunter outside?" ”
"How do you know?" After thinking about it, this is not a confidential matter, so he nodded and said, "I have plans for this!" ”
"Mr. Jean, do you believe that the pampered white men can do your job well?" Seresto said very politely.
Jian Heng couldn't help but let out a sigh when he heard this, I have to say that Seresto's question is to the point, generally speaking, in addition to doing ranch work, these old white hired workers are not very good at work
The main reason is that these people have a strong sense of time, for example, the legal 9-to-5, these goods will really give you 9-to-5, if it is 7-to-5, forget it, maybe these guys will give you a lunch break at noon, and give you another hour at once. Lao Mo collects 100 jobs here and completes them in three days, but if you change to a white person to collect 200 weeks, you may not be able to finish it. In general, white people work for a long time, which is not a good choice.
"......" Jian Heng was speechless.
Seresto looked around, lowered his voice and said, "Not only are they slow to work, they are demanding, and if they feel that the working environment is not satisfactory, they will make a lot of demands, if they strike, can you find other workers to continue your work?" ……”。
It's a disdain to say this, but in private everyone understands that this is what it is.
At this moment, Serestor's words hit Jian Heng's soft underbelly all of a sudden, this thing can't be said to happen, but once it happens, let alone complete all the projects before the snow this year, if it can be completed next year, it will be regarded as burning high incense, thinking of this, Jian Heng fell directly into contemplation.
Seresto immediately added the last straw when he saw it: "Actually, we can go next, I don't mean my construction team, I mean that I will take the lead in doing this, you are equivalent to handing over the project to me completely, and we will sign a formal contract to complete the ...... in what time."
When Jian Heng heard Seresto say this, his heart couldn't help but move: "Can you guarantee it?" ”
"I haven't seen the workload yet, but we Mexicans can work overtime, we can work on weekends, and we're asking for a lot less than those people, and to be honest, I can't find you giving up on us and using those half-toned bounty hunters out there," Selesto said with a shrug of his shoulders, pretending to be lighthearted.
Jian Heng was looking for Selesto to discuss the renovation of O'Brien's old mansion today, originally Jian Heng thought that just one renovation job would be enough for Celesto's gang to do it for a year and a half to two months, but he didn't expect this guy's heart to be so big, and he directly wanted to eat the modern Chinese antique building on his side.
However, what Seresto said is also reasonable, this group of white people in the United States is indeed too expensive, and when they encounter a job, they always pick and choose, and they can't stop shouting who will steal their jobs, but in fact, most of the low-level immigrants are robbing jobs that white people don't do, and these jobs make little money and are hard.
"I don't know what the skill level of your workers is?" Jian Heng asked.
When Seresto heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: Let the bounty hunters do the work, you don't ask for anything on your side, and I said that I want to eat this batch of projects, and your side will raise the level of workers?
Thinking so in his heart, Seresto was not stupid enough to say it from his mouth, although the two were very familiar with each other, but in essence, Jian Heng was still Party A of Seresto, the person holding the money in his hand, so Seresto didn't want to offend Jian Heng.
So Seresto said: "The people I am looking for must be licensed, and they can't be miscellaneous."
Jian Heng listened to it for a while, thought about it for a while, and then preliminarily agreed with Seresto's idea: "I think what you said is good, but I have to think about it carefully before I can give you an answer."
The smile on Serestor's face became even bigger when he heard Jian Heng say this, he knew that he had eaten the list, so he nodded at Jian Heng: "Of course!" ”
After Jian Heng finished speaking, his attention turned to the truck driver's side again, and after shouting, the truck driver asked the gang who unloaded the truck to pay attention to the number of the box, so as not to confuse the contents of several boxes.
It took half a twenty minutes to roar like this, and all the containers were unloaded in the correct order and stacked neatly.
Seeing the departure of the unloading truck driven by this gang, Jian Heng was not at ease and checked the unloaded container again, this check didn't matter, he found a mistake again, the box that was originally B23 and C23 were transferred to each other, the box was so big that the gang was stunned to read it wrong, and Jian Heng was also quite speechless.
However, the two boxes are still in the middle, with a box underneath, and a box pressed on top, Jian Heng stood below and scratched his head, scolding these people for their sloppy work.
Scolding can't solve the problem, even if Jian Heng wants to move this daylight, it is not easy to use his own means, so he has to wait for the night as if he had a thorn in his heart.
Turning his head, he found Seresto standing next to him, and felt that it seemed that this group of Lao Bai was indeed not as hard-working as Lao Mo's work, so Jian Heng said: "You go back with me, I'll find the person in charge to talk to you about the details, if you can figure out his requirements, I think the matter between us will be solved."
Seresto nodded.
So the two of them turned around and went to the study, and when they returned to the study, Jian Heng dialed Professor Guan's mobile phone, asked him if he thought he had nothing to do, and then the two sides turned on the video and started chatting.
What Jian Heng didn't expect was that Professor Guan's English was very good, especially the vocabulary of architecture, and Professor Guan and Seresto, many of whom Jian Heng had never heard, had no problem communicating with Seresto. Originally, Jian Heng thought that if Professor Guan's English was not up to par, he could still be a translator or something, but he didn't expect that Professor Guan's character was not very good, and there were still a little servile people who were actually professional and good in English, don't want it, really respond to that sentence, academic achievements and character are two different things, some people are academic masters, not necessarily masters of human nature.
After chatting for more than half an hour, Professor Guan directly asked Jian Heng in Chinese: "Where did you find such a great construction worker?" ”
Jian Hengzhen, who asked this, rolled his eyes: "Americans build houses in the countryside at this level!" ”
Professor Guan doesn't know too much that even if you repair a water pipe in the United States, you must have a certificate to do this work, not to mention doing this in China, even if it is necessary for a construction site, how many carpenters and cement workers are certified. For example, the quality of employees is naturally high, and the workers on the general construction site are really not as good as the small construction teams building houses in the countryside in the United States, and each of them is a trained and fully licensed professional.
