March 2005.

The weather in the early spring of Quanshui City was a little cold, and the red sun slowly rose, but it did not dispel a trace of chill.

After a night of stumbling as the last concrete tanker left the site, the concrete on the four floors of Building 7 was finally poured.

The workers who are dusting (pouring concrete) are coming downstairs one after another, exhausted.

The foreman carefully inspected every corner until he was sure that all the concrete surfaces on the floor were covered with film, felt and other insulation measures, then he nodded with satisfaction, lit a cigarette and slowly went downstairs to see if there were any missing tools.

I didn't see the tools, but I saw a young man in a military coat curled up and sleeping on a thermal insulation board.

The young man's face was full of exhaustion, the corners of his eyebrows and the right cheek were stained with a lot of gray stains, the military coat on his body was also covered with mortar lumps, the red hard hat he wore and a dent, and the original color of the tourist shoes was no longer visible.

The foreman sighed, carefully stepped over the steel pipes, avoided the nails under his feet, and came to the young man and called softly: "Hey, Xiao Zhang, wake up quickly, after the ashes, go back to the dormitory and sleep." ”

Dusting?

Staring at the construction site pouring concrete?

Since the old club got the compensation, Zhang Yi has long been out of the construction circle.

I changed my career to live training for a construction vocational certificate for two and a half years, and my monthly income was more than I earned for a year on a construction site.

You let Lao Tzu beat the ashes with you? Brains are in water!

Zhang Yi opened his heavy eyelids hard, raised his head and looked at the contractor with squinting eyes.

Old man, who are you? It looks familiar.

Zhang Yi frowned, he thought of a person, but he was not very sure, so he said tentatively: "Lao Hong? ”

"You kid is sleeping, you don't even know me Hong Sihai anymore!" Hong Sihai bared his mouth full of big yellow teeth, and let out a breath mixed with the smell of smoke between his breaths, which looked particularly unpleasant.

It's really you!

In Zhang Yi's memory, at the end of 05, Hong Sihai had an accident when he climbed to the top of the building to ask for the wages of migrant workers and fell to his death.

Sure enough, it's fierce.,A person who has passed away for more than ten years shouts that he is dusting.,It must be a dream.,No.,I'll sleep for a while.,When I wake up, I have to check whether the newly recruited customer service girl business has improved.。

Zhang Yi closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Hey, I said why don't you listen to persuasion, it's cold outside, and you have to freeze if you sleep again!" Hong Sihai hurriedly went directly to Zhang Yi, "Hurry up." ”

Zhang Yi was dragged to sit up, staring at Hong Sihai like a fuss, and just wanted to say something, when he caught a glimpse of a PHS phone rolling from his arms to the ground.

This PHS ...... Didn't he join the work back then, and the eldest brother bought a new mobile phone and eliminated it for him?

Zhang Yi looked around, some sleeping memories in the depths of his brain were slowly activated, and at the same time, a bad feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.

I...... It's not going to be reborn, is it?

He quickly picked up PHS from the ground and pressed the keyboard, and saw the words "07:25, Saturday, March 5, 2005" displayed on the small orange screen.

Really!

Zhang Yi's brows tightened, and his whole face instantly collapsed into the expression of "the old man in the subway looking at his mobile phone", and his heart was flooded with a thousand layers of bitterness, and it was difficult to explain.

Why was it reborn? I don't discuss this kind of major matter with Lao Tzu, so I might as well ask Lao Tzu's opinion!

Finally crawled out of the civil sinkhole, the studio just got on the right track, ready to show its strengths, and the result did not squeak, and sent himself to 05 to be rebuilt!

Made, it's so annoying!

Hong Sihai saw that Zhang Yi suddenly began to tremble, and couldn't help but worry: "Xiao Zhang, are you okay......?"

Before he finished speaking, Lao Hong's mobile phone rang, he hesitated for a moment, and saw Zhang Yi shaking his head at him, so he answered the phone.

"Hey, Liu Gong, just finished the ash, don't worry, the insulation measures are done, yes, there is no ash left this time, there is really no car left, Xiao Zhang stared at it the whole time, ah, he PHS may be in arrears, or I will see him later, let him call you back, oh don't need to reply, right, that's okay, okay, goodbye."

Hanging up the phone, Hong Sihai said with a smile: "Your cheap master called, asked about the dust last night, mainly asked if there was any ash left, it seems that there was a car of ash left over last time to leave a shadow on him." ”

Zhang Yi frowned, he remembered, graduated and joined a construction company, the scale is not large, but he likes to learn what corporate culture large enterprises do, one of which is that after the newcomer registers, the company will arrange an old employee to lead the newcomer to grow rapidly, if the apprentice performs well, the master can also get a part of the bonus.

Liu Qiang was Zhang Yi's "master" at that time, most of the time, he would put on the "master" shelf, instruct Zhang Yi to do this and that, and take Zhang Yi out of anger if something didn't go well, and often beat Zhang Yi to buy cigarettes and alcohol to pay respect.

Zhang Yi once calculated an account, he paid more than 300 yuan a month to honor Liu Qiang's tobacco and alcohol, you must know that his monthly salary was only 1,000 yuan at that time, and it was common for him to be in arrears of wages on the construction site.

said that a few days ago, he asked for an extra car of concrete ash, and after being discovered by the production manager Wang Jian, he scolded Zhang Yi fiercely, and then scolded Liu Qiang, and asked him, the apprentice of the master, if there is still ash left next time, he will be punished.

For this matter, Liu Qiang complained to others more than once, saying that he had accepted Zhang Yi's apprentice for eight lifetimes, and others accepted apprentices with fragrant and spicy drinks, but he had to be punished.

The past surged up like a tide, churning in Zhang Yi's mind, a little uncomfortable, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

Hong Sihai originally wanted to tease Zhang Yi, but when he saw him like this, he could only light a cigarette and hand Zhang Yi one at the same time.

The cigarette is a red general for five yuan, Zhang Yi waved his hand and refused, and he quit smoking after changing careers to live broadcast in his previous life.

"What's the matter, do you think I'm a smoker?" Hong Sihai asked.

Zhang Yi shook his head and smiled and said, "Quit it, you should smoke less." ”

Hong Sihai looked at Zhang Yi like a ghost, this kid who was dusted all night last night didn't rub his cigarette smoking, and now he said quit, fooling the ghost, he pointed at Zhang Yi and said, "Okay, you have a kind, don't look for me to smoke in the future." ”

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Don't be poor, let's go, go to your dormitory for breakfast, there are still a lot of things to deal with after eating." ”

The workers' dormitory is not within the construction site, Hong Sihai rented two yards nearby, and the distance is not far, just a ten-minute walk.

Zhang Yi walked very slowly, pondering how to plan the future road as he walked.

In the previous life, the construction site was home, the construction site was like a moving siege, trapping people in a world intertwined with reinforced concrete, although the outside world was very exciting, but basically had nothing to do with you, every day was not ash, or on the way to ash, if you were lucky, you would stay up for ten years and eight years to mix with the project manager, and it was already the ceiling of ordinary civil engineers.

As for the rumors that the "three general managers (three-year project chief engineers) and five projects (five-year project managers)" are pure nonsense, three years are always on the construction site, and five years are the truth of the resident project.

It can also be said that in addition to the set of things on the construction site, at this time, Zhang Yi can use other means of making a living is only construction training, after all, with the operation of the real estate speculation group, the best golden decade of the entire industry is coming, the real estate industry is booming, the construction professional qualification certificate is also a hot commodity, the enterprise qualification upgrade needs a certificate, and the promotion and salary increase also need a certificate, even if the real estate industry declines later, everyone is also crazy involution in order to enhance their personal value, otherwise Zhang Yi's studio will not be able to get up.

Moreover, this year is also the first year of the official opening of the first-class construction engineer examination (04 years did not take a test, and the 04 results of the April 05 exam are counted), and all kinds of offline construction training institutions have just started.

If you live again, you can't say anything about being trapped in the civil siege, the world is so big, change to an easy way to live, how comfortable and how to come!

When passing by the commissary, the proprietress was tinkering with a hollow boiling water at the door, and when she saw Zhang Yi and the two passing by, she immediately raised her hand to stop Zhang Yi and said, "I said Xiao Zhang, when will the money owed to our store be paid?" ”

Zhang Yi scratched his head, who still remembered the account more than ten years ago, and simply asked: "Please calculate how much I owe in total?" ”

The proprietress went back to the house and got the account book and calculator, and in less than a minute, she had the result, pinched her waist and said, "Six hundred and two, wipe it for you and count six hundred, when will it be returned." ”

"The day after tomorrow." Zhang Yi said: "If you can't do it, you can go to the construction site office to block me." ”

"Okay, that's what you said, otherwise don't blame me for embarrassing you." The proprietress then let Zhang Yi leave.

"When will you be paid?" Hong Sihai looked at Zhang Yi, and always felt that this kid's words and deeds today were weird.

Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "No, don't you know what urine sex this broken company is." ”

Hong Sihai said: "If you don't pay your salary, you still say that you will pay back the day after tomorrow, that girl is very biao, and this kind of thing of blocking the door and scolding the street is trivial to her!" ”

Zhang Yi looked at Hong Sihai with a smile, "It is natural to repay debts, it is not practical to sleep when you owe money, and besides, this amount of money is not much!" ”

"Hey!" Hong Sihai smiled: "Then what do you take?" ”

In fact, Hong Sihai is looking forward to Zhang Yi borrowing money, because once he borrows money, Zhang Yi is embarrassed to say anything about any problems in terms of quality in the future.

However, Hong Sihai knows very well that with Zhang Yi's personality and temper, he will not borrow money.

Zhang Yi said: "Of course, find an accountant to borrow two money to spend!" ”

"Accountant Zhao is the manager's sister-in-law, can you deduct the money from her?" Hong Sihai reminded.

He contracted the labor services of three buildings, and now the foundations of the three buildings have been completed, seeing that Building 6 is going to be capped, he didn't get a dime, and he asked the manager for money several times, and the reply was that there was no money in the account, and waited.

Even the salaries of the management personnel on the construction site have not been paid for more than half a year, so it is strange that Zhang Yi can get money from the accountant!

"Then it's not your business!" Zhang Yi changed the topic and said: "Lao Hong, how many years have you been doing labor?" ”

Hong Sihai was very unhappy when he saw him selling Guanzi, so he pouted and said, "It's been three years, and I have fifty or sixty people under my hands." ”

"It's not profitable to do labor all the time, and you have to think of ways to make professional subcontracting, which is the general trend in the future." Zhang Yi said step by step.

Hong Sihai said angrily: "Do you think I don't want to, but I don't have the resources in my hands for the time being, and I can't ask for a bunch of certificates to get qualifications, where can I get them." ”

"If you can't get it, you can take the test yourself, it's not difficult anyway!" The smile on Zhang Yi's face became even stronger.

"Take the test yourself? You said it easily, I Chinese ...... at the beginning"

Before Hong Sihai finished speaking, Zhang Yi interjected: "If I say, I can guarantee that you have passed the second-level construction engineer exam, I don't know if you are interested?" ”
