Chapter 16: Yan Laosan

Xu Xiangyang looked at his small body, and thought that he really couldn't escape the fate of working as a coolie.

Let's take it one step at a time!

He smiled and said, "Okay, Comrade Zhang, if there is anything wrong, remember to tell me." ”

Building a good relationship is the first step, no matter what you do, you have to smile and leave a good impression.

Zhang Xiao saw that he was quite modest, so he nodded and asked him to help others work, and didn't say anything more.

Xu Xiangyang saw that everyone was carrying food, and he resigned himself to carrying it.

At first, it was okay and he could stand it, but after more than an hour, his physical strength couldn't keep up.

I was so tired and out of breath that I couldn't lift my feet when I walked.

But fortunately, the move has been completed, and everyone has rested.

"How is it? Can you hold on?" Zhang Xiao asked as he walked to the side at some point.

Xu Xiangyang said in his heart: I can't stand it.

But I can't say this, after thinking about it, I have to grit my teeth and hold on.

"It's okay, just get used to it. He wiped his sweat and replied.

If you say you're tired and can't stand it, people will definitely think that this person can't do it.

If you say you're not tired, will you, and you'll suffer more in the future, so it's best to say that.

Admits that you are tired, but you can persevere.

Zhang Xiao nodded, "Okay, do it well." ”

With that, he turned and walked away.

Everyone else on the side was resting, and everyone was tired, after all, it was physical work.

In addition, I can't eat enough at this time, and they are all lean, and few of them are strong.

"You're new here, it's tiring, I don't think you can last a few days. A man in his forties sat next to him, lighting an old dry cigarette.

Xu Xiangyang looked at him and touched his lips, he also likes to smoke, but after coming here, he has no money to buy it.

I didn't find any cigarettes in the space, so now I see others smoking, and he's a little addicted.

"Comrade, I don't like to hear that. Xu Xiangyang said with a smile: "How can you not be tired when you come out to work? Money can't fall from the sky and smash it in my pocket, right?"

Isn't this just talking and talking? You have to have a degree of looking down on people.

Although Xu Xiangyang felt that what he said was true, he really had no other way than this road at present.

If you want to make money, how can you not be good at hard physical work, but if you have the opportunity, you can also play a role and find a good job.

The man smiled when he heard his words, "There's nothing wrong with what you said, do it well." ”

Xu Xiangyang didn't care when he saw him go to chat with other people.

Looking up at the sky, it was foggy, and it looked like it was going to snow again.

Just now he noticed that there was a rest room next to it, and there was a stove in it.

After finishing the work for a while, I guess I can go there and rest for a while.

"Alright, you're almost rested, aren't you? Zhang Xiaozhang asked everyone to get up and work, and then went to chat with the driver by himself.

Xu Xiangyang got up resignedly, then rubbed his sore shoulders, and hurriedly followed everyone to work.

You have to make a good impression on the first day, and you have to be positive about your work.

Leaders are willing to see this, and no one likes subordinates grinding foreign workers.

Although it is now a state-run unit, its work efficiency has not improved, and it is these small-headed cadres who are still criticized.

At noon, Xu Xiangyang took the meal ticket to the canteen, and he prepared the lunch box in advance, so he got the meal smoothly.

The meal is two wowotou and a cabbage stewed potato, and the clear soup is watery.

Although these are not very tasty, it is also the first time he has eaten stew here, except in the space.

There was no oil and water, but I also ate vegetables.

Xu Xiangyang didn't waste anything, plus he did a morning of physical work, and he ate it all directly.

It's even a little underfed......

This is also normal, how can you eat well without oil and water?

It's like eating some meat oil, and you can take care of the big thing.

After eating, Xu Xiangyang followed everyone to clean the lunch box, and then returned to the lounge.

There were three rows of wooden benches in it, and you could rest against the wall for a while, and there was a stove in the middle, and there was a fire burning inside, so it wasn't cold in the room.

"Brother, how do you feel?"

Xu Xiangyang looked up at the person who spoke, it was the man who teased him just now.

He smiled and replied, "It's okay, I'm tired of working." ”

This is the truth, how can you not be tired of working? You are not tired of lying at home, but you can't earn money.

For the first time, a man saw such a thin boy come out to do manual work, and he didn't complain.

He sat next to Xu Xiangyang and said, "My name is Yan Laosan, everyone calls me Laosan, what is your name?"

"My name is Xu Xiangyang, just call me Xiangyang. Xu Xiangyang saw that he had no malicious intent, so he was willing to say a few words to him.

I don't have any friends in the city, so it's okay to have someone I know, at least I won't be blind.

Yan Laosan nodded, "Brother Xiangyang, when we are busy with our work for a month or two, we don't move grain every day, and we can get a salary if we insist on persevering." ”

He saw that this young man was not bad and could endure hardships, so he encouraged him.

"Thank you. Xu Xiangyang thanked him, he didn't know how to work here in the grain depot, so he also had a score in his heart when he heard this.

He took the opportunity to inquire about the situation of the grain depot, and Yan Laosan told him everything, and he didn't hide it at all.

It's also these things that you know if you ask around, and it's nothing to say.

The man Yan Laosan was diagonally facing suddenly smiled and said, "Third child, you are quite kind-hearted. ”

Yan Laosan knew that he was making fun of him, so he didn't get angry, "I'm happy." ”

The two of you talk about other things.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, everyone began to get up and move their bodies, and they were about to get back to work.

Although Xu Xiangyang felt that his body was a little sore, he could accept it, so he got up.

He also inquired just now that the grain depot will finish moving grain in about half a month, and the next step is to clean up the grain depot.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the food can't be eaten by rats.

The work of the afternoon was carried out very quickly, after all, it was dark at half past three, everyone got off work at five o'clock, and the time passed quite quickly.

Zhang Xiao found Xu Xiangyang and saw that he was in good shape, so he said: "Comrade Xu, you must be here at half past seven tomorrow, and you will be called by then, if you don't come, even if you are late, remember to come early." ”

Every time a new kid has to be instructed, so he has to say something.

Xu Xiangyang nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, I won't be late." ”

Everyone set out on the way home, but Xu Xiangyang had no home.

As usual, he found a place nearby where no one was and entered the space, which was his place of residence for the time being.

The granary did not provide housing for temporary workers, so he had to do this first.

If you insist on a month, you can get paid, and the same is true for finding a house after the New Year.

Now if you want to find a house, you have to take a holiday for the New Year, which is equivalent to a waste of money.
