Volume 1 The Devil's Capital Chapter 13 Air Conditioning Installation
On the second day of Christmas, Xie Xiaodeng left, and before leaving, he bought a set of clothes for Tang Yihuan, and Tang Muye sent her on the bus.
The things she couldn't take away were basically given to Tang Muye, some household utensils, bookshelves and tables, etc., but Tang Muye's small rental house was full.
After she left, Tang Muye teamed up with an aunt for a week, and just after New Year's Day, he found an air-conditioning installation company called Liangyi Refrigeration according to a job advertisement and applied for a small job.
Because I didn't have children, I successfully applied for the job, and I just applied for the job on the morning of the 4th, and I started working on the same day.
This is actually equivalent to a small engineering team, the boss guards the store department in Qiaotou Town to contact the business, and then recruits a manager, a debugging master, three technicians, five small workers, and the work can be carried out.
Their number was originally enough, but one of the small workers returned to his hometown on New Year's Day, so there was only one person missing, and Tang Muye was just able to make up for it.
Doing small jobs costs 280 yuan a day, which is better than advertising.
The construction site is a villa area under construction, called Shuimo Yaju International Villa City, which takes more than 20 minutes by bicycle from Qiaotou Ancient Town.
When he went to work at eight o'clock in the morning and got off work at five o'clock in the evening, Tang Muye called Teacher Jiang in the kindergarten and said that he would pick up the child late in the evening, so he would trouble her to send the child to the late successor.
There are so many classes in the kindergarten, and there will probably be a few in each class that cannot be picked up normally, so there is a late pick-up shift, and there are teachers on duty in that class before six o'clock.
If you leave work at five o'clock, you can catch up before six o'clock.
This is a very large villa city, the first and second phases have been built long ago, and they have already been inhabited, the third and fourth phases are under construction, with 40 buildings in each phase, and 20 houses in each of the two types of AB.
Each building needs to install two small central air conditioners, one air conditioner controls one floor, and the progress should be synchronized with the interior decoration, and the pipes and tuyeres should be installed before the ceiling.
When Tang Muye joined, it happened that the third phase had been installed, and the fourth phase had just begun, that is, there were still eighty air conditioners to be installed.
Manager Zhu is about 50 years old, a native of Hebei, Master Chen, a commissioning worker, is 35 or 6 years old, and the electrician and plumber are two young people about 30 years old, and these three people were brought by Manager Zhu from his hometown.
Master Jiang, a sheet metal worker, is a middle-aged man in his forties, from Sichuan.
Five small workers, one from Sichuan, one from Henan, one from Shandong, one from Shaanxi, plus Tang Muye, are all young people in their twenties.
An installation team, exactly ten people, can be regarded as having everything from all over the world.
On the first day of work, Tang Muye could only do the hardest work, which was to make holes in the wall, and the warm pipe of the air conditioner had to be connected to every room, so he naturally needed to make a hole in the designated wall according to the installation drawings.
The walls are poured out of concrete, it is not easy to make holes in the wall, you have to use a percussion drill to make a blank, and then use a hammer to beat the chisel to repair it, so that the hole appears smooth and standardized, so that the warmth pipe can be smoother when passing through.
The hole in the wall is close to the floor slab, and it is dirty and tiring to stand on a ladder or aerial work platform to operate.
Although he was wearing a hard hat and overalls, he was dusty in the wall hole, and after a morning, he still became discouraged, uncomfortable, and his arms were sore, and the palms holding the hammer were blistered.
But thinking that he could earn two hundred and eighty yuan this day, he still gritted his teeth and persevered.
The lunch was delivered by the proprietress on a tricycle, and when I got the food, I found a room at random, and sat on a wooden board or foam board to eat.
After eating, you can rest for an hour, basically put a foam board on it, and you can go to sleep.
However, in such a cold weather, I don't dare to really sleep, basically everyone is playing with their mobile phones, and some people are talking and chatting casually.
Five small workers are lying in a room, and the young man named Zhou Hao in Sichuan is the most eloquent and can talk to anyone.
Zheng Xiyang from Shandong is more enthusiastic and has a very cheerful personality, and he also specially instructed Tang Muye in the morning, teaching him how to work more effortlessly, and what work will be done for a long time will have some small skills.
The tall man in Henan is called Wang Dabiao, a big man of more than one meter and eight meters, he seems to be relatively strong, and he always looks like a commanding man, and he instructs Zhang Xiaode, who is more introverted, to work for him at every turn, and even throws the lunch box after eating to Zhang Xiaode to help him wash it.
Tang Muye just joined in, except for Zheng Xiyang who helped him enthusiastically, and the two talked more, they were not familiar with other people for the time being, so they were basically a bystander, silently lying on the side and observing a few workers.
Zhou Hao saw that Tang Muye didn't talk much, so he said to Tang Muye: "Xiao Tang looks polite, not like a person who works on the construction site, why did you come here?" ”
Tang Muye smiled lightly: "What kind of politeness, I am also from the countryside, from the mountains, it would be good to come out to work and have a job." ”
Zheng Xiyang answered: "I heard Master Chen say that you are a person who has gone to college, and we are only junior high school students, so you are not used to being a cultural person in our team!" ”
Tang Muye immediately replied with a smile: "No, no, I am not a cultural person, that is, after graduating from high school, I went to a junior college for two years, and the diploma is the kind that the company does not approve of." ”
Zhou Hao said: "Anyway, you are the most educated person in our installation team, Manager Zhu is not clear about what culture, Master Chen and electricians have gone to secondary school, plumbers have gone to high school, and Master Jiang has only gone to junior high school like us." ”
Tang Muye said with a smile: "We should all be rural people, come to the city to work, that is, migrant worker brothers, now there are so many college students, the competition is very fierce, I am a half-baked cultural person, it is good to have a job." ”
Wang Dabiao put down his mobile phone and said: "There is a fart in college, and the wages earned by entering the factory are not as much as what we earn on the construction site!" Let me say that going to school is a waste of money and a waste of time. ”
When he said this, everyone didn't know how to pick it up.
Zhou Hao changed the topic and said, "Xiao Tang, you are doing this work for the first day, right?" How does it feel? ”
Tang Muye smiled bitterly: "What else can I do? The palm of my hand is blistered, and now it hurts when I hold the hammer, and I don't use it very much. ”
Zheng Xiyang stretched out his hand, opened his palm and said, "Just look at my hand, it's good to grow this thick cocoon." ”
Zhou Hao said sympathetically: "It's not easy, I didn't do much hard work at first glance, although they are all from the countryside, you should have just walked out of school for a few years, and you haven't practiced yet, it's been a long time, just adapt to it." ”
Zheng Xiyang suggested: "Why don't you let Zhang Xiaode replace you in the afternoon, he is still quite good at smashing holes in the wall, you can learn something else from us." ”
Before Zhang Xiaode could reply, Wang Dabiao hurriedly said: "That's not good, Xiaode wants to follow me, our work hasn't been finished yet!" ”
It turned out that since Zhang Xiaode joined the installation team, he was quickly taken by Wang Dabiao, saying that he was taking it, but in fact, he let Wang Dabiao do a lot of physical work, and he himself could be lazy.
Although everyone couldn't get used to his style, the leaders didn't say anything, and no one said anything.
