Chapter 114: Just take the job and do it (please subscribe)
The person who spoke was a good-looking woman with a very good temperament.
He looks about twenty-seven or eighty-years-old, with short, sleek hair, and fair and pink skin. He looks well-maintained at first glance.
There are also lunch boxes hung on net ropes in her car.
This person is naturally Fan Xiaofeng, Fan Dajun's sister.
"Aren't we here to see you and your parents? Are you welcome?" Fan Dajun couldn't help but act like an elder brother.
"No way, this is not a house renovation, it's a mess." Fan Xiaofeng said with a smile.
"I thought the construction hadn't started yet, but it looks like it's almost finished?" Fan Dajun asked with a frown.
Just over ten days ago, Fan Xiaofeng told him that he wanted to renovate the house, renovate the kitchen, and build a new toilet and bathroom.
As a result, the courtyard walls were all built and cementing began.
"No, Amin said to finish the yard first, but we haven't started inside yet." Fan Xiaofeng explained.
When Fan Dajun heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's great. I found a master in the village to build a firewood-saving stove for you. It will save half the firewood than an ordinary stove." Fan Dajun quickly stated his purpose.
Fan Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that her eldest brother would find a mason to build the stove for her?
"Brother, we already have a master, so you don't need to worry about this matter." Fan Xiaofeng said tactfully.
"Where did the master come from? What kind of firewood-saving stove can save half the firewood? It's so good at blowing."
"After working for more than ten years, this is the first time I have heard of such a stove. Don't be fooled." A middle-aged man who was painting the wall couldn't help but said.
When Xu Ye heard this, he immediately became happy.
After working for more than ten years, the walls have been painted like this?
You haven't even found the leveling yet, so why do you have the nerve to boast that you've been doing it for more than ten years?
Xu Ye originally thought that they were the apprentices who painted the walls so badly.
Fortunately, it turned out to be a master with more than ten years of experience.
Fan Dajun did not answer and walked straight towards the yard.
He felt that he had brought all the materials to help build a firewood-saving stove for free, so that no one would take advantage of it.
Fan Xiaofeng pushed the bicycle in and parked it in an open space.
There are a lot of materials piled up in the yard, and it looks really messy.
Fan Dajun frowned. There was no room for two donkey carts in the yard.
"You guys move the materials in, we'll finish it and go back soon." Fan Dajun walked to the door and said.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
"We don't lack bricks at home. These are all belonging to your brigade. They belong to the collective. Don't make mistakes." Fan Xiaofeng frowned, feeling that Fan Dajun was being too ridiculous.
"I will pay for these, so you don't have to worry." Fan Dajun didn't want to lose face.
Fan Xiaofeng knew that her elder brother was very proud, so she said helplessly: "Brother, the master we hired can renovate the kitchen and stove, so don't worry about it."
"You haven't eaten yet. I'll cook for you. Fu Min didn't come back today."
"My parents also ate in the canteen of the unit, and I brought some food to Xiao Ning."
Fan Dajun frowned after hearing this, feeling very embarrassed.
He walked out, pointed at the wall and said: "The master you hired is really not that good. He can't even paint the wall. I don't believe he can renovate the kitchen and build the stove."
The expressions of the masters suddenly changed and they turned to look at Fan Dajun.
"Comrade, are you questioning our ability?"
"What do you know? Once you finish brushing it all and scraping it, it will be smooth."
"If you are a layman, don't talk nonsense!"
"You are from the countryside, what do you know?"
Fan Dajun's expression changed and he couldn't help but look at Xu Ye.
He is indeed a layman and does not understand this.
But the cement painted on this wall looks really uneven.
When Xu Ye saw Fan Dajun looking at him, he knew that he was seeking his opinion.
Originally, Xu Ye didn't want to say anything.
This stove does not need to be built at all, and it is not a wasted trip to buy some materials and rush back.
However, the words of these masons made him a little unhappy, so he said: "What you said is not bad, but you said that you have been doing it for more than ten years, and this craft is really rough. You can't even do basic uniformity." to.”
"Or are you deliberately trying to make more money from your employer?"
Xu Ye's words immediately made the leader angry, and he jumped down from the shelf.
"Say it like you would."
"Come on, come on, try it."
"Don't just slander others with a loud mouth." As he said that, he handed over his trowel.
"Master Lu, don't be offended, don't be angry, don't be as knowledgeable as my brother and my younger brother." Fan Xiaofeng quickly stood up to persuade.
Today's masters are hard to find. Everyone is very busy and in high demand.
In order to find these masters, her man spent some favors.
What if you are offended and just give up?
The interior decoration of this house has not started yet, how can it be abandoned halfway?
Fan Xiaofeng didn't know Xu Ye. After all, Xu Ye had not yet arrived at Shangxi Village to join the queue when she got married.
But since he is from the village, it is not wrong to say that he is his younger brother.
In this way, these bricklayers will always give them a face.
The bricklayer didn't intend to give Fan Xiaofeng face, and said coldly: "No one can do it. Since you doubt my level, Lu Yuan, then I have to see how much he weighs." Xu Ye didn't say anything and took it directly. Passed each other's trowel and mopped ash board.
Then, he directly lifted a bucket of mortar and walked to the other side of the wall.
Xu Ye shoveled a spoonful of cement onto the mopping board and directly applied it to the wall.
"The proportions of this mortar are also wrong. There is too much primer and too little in one layer."
After saying that, Xu Ye put another spoonful of cement on the wall.
Seeing Xu Ye's actions, the other party's face became a little confused.
Experts will know if there is one as soon as they take action.
Xu Ye's movements were skillful, like flowing clouds and flowing water.
Just using the ash board, the scraping was very even.
After scraping five tablespoons in a row, Xu Ye picked up the plaster knife and started scraping on the wall.
After a few minutes, the area he scraped became extremely smooth.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The contrast between left and right is really obvious.
Fan Xiaofeng's eyes widened and she couldn't believe it.
There is no harm without comparison. The wall Xu Ye scraped out is a completely different world from the other side.
"Well, is it okay for me to say that Xu Ye is a master?" Fan Dajun looked at his sister proudly.
To be honest, he didn't expect Xu Ye's skills to be so good.
Fan Xiaofeng opened her mouth, but no words came out.
Just now she felt that Xu Ye looked young, and he was from the village. He also had the temperament of a scholar, and there was no way he could be a master mason.
"How old are you? You can do this job better than my master."
“You didn’t start practicing right from your mother’s womb, right?”
"I, Lu Yuan, am convinced!"
There is no way to fake craftsmanship, especially in the eyes of knowledgeable people.
Although Lu Yuan was unhappy, he could not question Xu Ye's craftsmanship.
As long as you are not blind, you can see that the wall painted by Xu Ye is very smooth, and there is no need to use a wooden ruler to level it.
The problem is that this master looks too young!
Lu Yuan felt that he had been feeding the dogs for the past three years. He had just left the apprenticeship to take over the work, and he was pressed against the wall and rubbed against the wall.
"Boss, we don't mean to make foreign workers worse. It's true that our skills are inferior to others."
"Since your brother is so powerful, let's do this job for exactly four days." Lu Yuan said with a cold face.
Although the job was taken away, he was not worried. After all, masons are a scarce talent and are needed everywhere.
"Isn't this appropriate?" Fan Xiaofeng frowned.
"What's inappropriate about this? Xu Ye's craftsmanship is so good and you don't want to invite him?" Fan Dajun glanced at Xu Ye, hoping that Xu Ye could take over his sister's job.
Construction team, construction team, what kind of construction team is it if it can only build firewood-saving stoves?
Previously, Xu Ye wanted the brigade to get some bricks to practice with Jiang Youshou and Zhang Fu, and use them as a prostitute for the brigade.
If we just take the work away, wouldn't it be possible to let Jiang Youshou, Zhang Fu and the others practice?
And you can still get paid, isn’t that great?
My sister's money is earned by others, why not let Xu Ye earn it?
"Don't be embarrassed, boss, we still have a lot of work to do." Lu Yuan said. He knew that he had no chance to stay, so he might as well be more open-minded.
If you want to deal with Xu Ye, there will be many opportunities in the future.
There are many people on the other side now, and Lu Yuan doesn't want to suffer.
"Okay, I'll get you some money and pay some wages." Fan Xiaofeng walked directly into the house.
After seeing Xu Ye's craftsmanship, she no longer looked down on Lu Yuan's craftsmanship.
Since Lu Yuan had brought it up himself, she would naturally not try to stay.
When Fan Dajun saw his sister entering the room, he quickly pulled Xu Ye aside and whispered: "Xu Ye, we must take on this job."
"With this job, won't your father-in-law and the others be able to practice their skills?"
"Besides, Xiaofeng is my sister, so I don't trust others working."
"You don't need to turn in your income this time, just buy work points normally. After all, the construction team has not been officially established yet."
Xu Ye felt that this was indeed a learning opportunity for free, and he could also earn some money.
The current price for a mason is two yuan a day, and for a small laborer, one yuan.
Even if they are all small laborers, it is better than digging dirt in the village.
Even with two or three days off a month, a cement worker's income is still forty or fifty.
This is why Fan Dajun and Yang Zongming were so excited when they learned that Xu Ye knew how to do cement work, and immediately thought of setting up a construction team to do a side job.
Because it’s really money!
Like other brigades, by paying 80%, the brigades can earn a lot of money every month.
"Okay, I agreed." Xu Ye felt that this was indeed a good opportunity to let his father-in-law learn more as soon as possible and have the opportunity to practice.
Hearing Xu Ye's agreement, Fan Dajun couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, he planned to build a wood-saving stove first, and then ask his brother-in-law to hand over the house renovation work to Xu Ye after Xu Ye's craftsmanship was recognized.
Unexpectedly, with just a simple show of his hand, Xu Ye would snatch the job away.
As long as this job is done well, the brand of Sanxi Construction Team will be officially launched.
Money, doesn’t it just keep coming in?
