Reborn to Strive

Shi Zhen specially chatted with Mr. Wang, hoping that Mr. Wang would find him to build a house. Now that Mr. Wang is interested, it would be the best thing for him.

Shi Zhen told Mr. Wang some things to pay attention to when building a house, and then said: "Mr. Wang, I used to be a foreman in the city. If you want to build, I can come over and be the foreman. I will keep the land for you. pretty."

"Foreman?" Mr. Wang was a little puzzled, what is this?

"He's the one who helps you manage the construction site." Shi Zhen said.

Building a self-built house in the countryside is really simple. Basically, you buy enough materials and call some people who can build a house nearby, so you can open the house directly.

At this stage, there are roughly two modes of building houses.

In these two models, the building materials are bought by the family who wants to build the house. The first is that after the family buys all the materials, they hire people to do it and pay the workers on a daily basis.

Based on the current market conditions, masons generally earn 20 or 25 yuan a day, and small workers 15 to [-] yuan a day. Of course, many people don’t hire small workers at all.

Afterwards, painters, plumbers, carpenters, etc. were hired one by one in the same way, and they were paid for a few days.

The second is that after the family hires workers, they calculate the money for the workers according to the entire project, such as agreeing with the masons, saying how much they will pay for the whole house.

Afterwards, plumbers, etc., can also do this directly-you can do all the plumbing and electricity in my house and give you as much as you want.

But at this stage, because there are no contractors in rural areas, very, very few people choose the second model. Everyone generally chooses the first model, which pays workers according to "work".

Of course, there are certain problems with calculating money based on "work". It's good that the master can keep watching. If the master is not there, the master who comes to work in their house will most likely be lazy.

For example, if you invite a master carpenter to come back, two of them will work for you at your house for a day, and you will be paid 50 yuan to build a door... This kind of thing abounds.

The master workers don't mind delaying the last job when they haven't received the next job, and they don't want to finish it quickly.

For them, if you can get more wages, you get more, right?

So in the end, more and more people chose the second method.

Shi Zhen still remembers when he first started working as a contractor, he led the villagers to lay bricks on the exterior wall of a family.

That family built the house together with their brother, and the two houses were built exactly the same, but the family hired him and agreed to pay 500 yuan to paste all the bricks on the outer wall, and the brother of the family invited workers to come back , Calculate the money according to "work".

In the end, he led people, and within two days, all the bricks on the exterior wall of the client's house were pasted up. Where is the client's brother?Just started.

Later, he learned that the final salary paid by the customer brother was more than 600 yuan, and the worker had worked half a month longer than him.

During the working period, he has to take care of the food, so it is much more cost-effective to hire him.

That's how he slowly opened things up.

Of course, now that Shi Zhen has no one under his command, he has not done this kind of work before so it is hard to be trusted, so it is not suitable to talk to people about the second model.

Finally, Shi Zhen suggested that Mr. Wang add a "foreman" on the basis of the first approach.

"Mr. Wang, you also know that when building a house, someone needs to be watched, and the foreman is to help you watch people. I can calculate for you how long any job will be done, and keep the workers from being lazy! If there is something like project quality, I will help you supervise." Shi Zhen said with a smile: "You can invite me to try, if there is something that is not satisfactory, just fire me."

The salary is in the hands of Mr. Wang, and Mr. Wang is not afraid of Shi Zhen pitting himself, so he immediately asked, "How much do you want for your salary?"

"Thirty a day," Shi Zhen said, "I will also do work like masonry, and I will keep it for you when the time comes."

Now that he hasn't done anything, it's not easy to ask a big price, but he can't quote too low to look cheap.

Mr. Wang was silent for a moment.

The man in front of him was prepared and came to find him, Mr. Wang knew this very well.

Of course he doesn't care too much.

What he cared more about was whether Shi Zhen could really help him build a unique villa.

After thinking about it, Mr. Wang said: "Okay, then I will build a house next month, and you will be my foreman."

He doesn't care much about the 30 yuan salary for this day, so it doesn't matter if he hires more people.

When Shi Zhen does well, he will let him continue to do it. If Shi Zhen can't do well...he can't do anything to Shi Zhen if he doesn't pay him.

Shi Zhen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

While Shi Zhen was working hard towards his goal, on the other side, he met Guan Baiyu who was Xiaobai, who was studying by himself in the classroom.

Shi Zhen had told him before that he would not come this week, and he specially gave him an extra ten yuan to go to Changxi City and buy something he liked during the week.

Xiao Zhou was only half a day off, and Shi Zhen obviously didn't want him to run back and forth. If he ran back, Shi Zhen might not be happy.

Guan Baiyu simply studied in the classroom.

The students in the experimental class love learning very much, and there are not a few of them who study by themselves in the classroom like Guan Baiyu.

After studying for a while and looking at his watch, Guan Baiyu went downstairs with his English book, while reciting words under the shadow of the teaching building, while waiting for Liang Qinxuan.

Liang Qinxuan lives on campus now, but he ran out in the first week, saying that he was going out to eat something delicious, and he had to go home to take his dirty clothes home to wash.

At that time, Liang Qinxuan also invited Guan Baiyu to go with him, saying that his house had a fun game console, but Guan Baiyu did not agree.

Liang Qinxuan's family is rich, and his consumption level is not at the same level as his. It's okay in school, but outside...he can't hang out with others.

He just told Liang Qinxuan a few words not to conflict with his stepmother.

No matter what kind of person Liang Qinxuan's stepmother is, the other party is pregnant now, and she is still an advanced pregnant woman. If Liang Qinxuan conflicts with the other party and something happens to the other party, then Liang Qinxuan will be out of luck.

Guan Baiyu waited for a while, and saw Liang Qinxuan coming in from the school gate dragging a suitcase, and waved as soon as he saw him: "Bai Yu!"

"You went home, did you encounter any trouble?" Guan Baiyu asked.

"No," Liang Qinxuan said, "That woman is terrible at the baby in her stomach. When I go back this time, she is not at home at all. She is avoiding me!"

Guan Baiyu was not surprised by this, if he was Liang Qinxuan's stepmother, he would definitely be on guard against Liang Qinxuan.

Liang Qinxuan said again: "My dad is really kind to her. I can't tolerate my grandma saying a word about her. My grandma is crying with me and wants me to go back to live. She said that no one is taking care of her now. My dad talks to her every day. quarrel……"

Speaking of this matter, Liang Qinxuan couldn't help but hesitate a bit.

Guan Baiyu said: "You really want to go back, and the family can't quarrel every day? Then how do you study?" Although Liang Qinxuan didn't say much, Guan Baiyu also knew that Mrs. Liang really didn't like Chen Shaojin's mother.

And when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get into trouble, the whole family will definitely be uneasy.

When his grandma and his adoptive mother were in trouble, he didn't have a good life.

And...it's not that he said bad things, no matter how much Liang Qinxuan's grandma doesn't like Chen Shaojin's mother now, once Chen Shaojin's mother gives birth to a child...the old lady's attitude may change.

Now that Liang Qinxuan's parents are divorced, it is impossible for Liang Qinxuan to get rid of the child in his stepmother's womb. In this case, it is of no benefit to him to go home and mix with his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

It is better to study hard.

"Then my grandma..." Liang Qinxuan struggled.

"Do you want to find some old sisters for her to talk with him?" Guan Baiyu suggested, the old ladies in their village definitely like talking to their peers the most.

Liang Qinxuan thought it was feasible.

Guan Baiyu said again: "By the way, you go back and pack your things, and then we will study together. I found that you have a big problem to fix!"

"What's the problem?" Liang Qinxuan was puzzled: "You are only a freshman in high school, so you can find out that I have a big problem?"

Liang Qinxuan felt that even if Guan Baiyu was in the experimental class, he would definitely not be as good as himself, a sophomore.

Guan Baiyu said: "Your handwriting is too ugly."

Liang Qinxuan: "!!!" This friend can't do it!

Guan Baiyu took out a math test paper: "Look at the question you got wrong, it's a wrong calculation! Why did you make a wrong calculation? It's because you wrote 5 like a 3, and then you took it as a 3 and counted it down Already!"

"And this English test paper, a, can't you seal it well? You wrote like u!"

"Not to mention Chinese... Have you practiced your handwriting? It's just that you refused to write well. You wrote the 'eight' in this word as 'in', which means the teacher kindly let you go."

……

Guan Baiyu pointed out everything.

Liang Qinxuan has some... a problem that many boys have, that is, carelessness.

Moreover, he has an active mind, and sometimes he may think about other things while doing the problems, so it is easy to make mistakes in calculating the problems.

Guan Baiyu felt that it was wrong to make mistakes!

Liang Qinxuan didn't get angry anymore after listening to it, after all what he said was true.

Every time he takes an exam, he loses points because of carelessness.

It's hard for Guan Baiyu to look at it so seriously.

"I'm just being careless..."

"Carelessness is not an excuse. If you write well, you will never have this kind of problem." Guan Baiyu said: "In the future, when you take the exam, you must write every word well."

"Okay..." Liang Qinxuan said, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, have you read all these questions? You have basically never taught them, so you can do them?"

"Most of them know it, some don't know it well." Guan Baiyu pointed to a question on the math paper and said, "I don't know much about this question."

Liang Qinxuan: "..." Good guy!He is not good at this question either!

This is scary, the top student in the experimental class?

It really made him, a student who spent money to enter No. [-] Middle School, tremble.

The two were talking when someone suddenly walked towards them.

Guan Baiyu raised his head and saw Chen Shaojin.

Liang Qinxuan often complained to Guan Baiyu about Chen Shaojin. Liang Qinxuan was a simple person, and Guan Baiyu believed his words, so he didn't like Chen Shaojin.

"Liang Qinxuan, you made another friend? Heh, do you think that the students in the experimental class really make friends with you? They are all for your money!" Chen Shaojin said.

Liang Qinxuan was a little angry: "You..."

"Your mother is mistress." Guan Baiyu suddenly said to Chen Shaojin.

Chen Shaojin's face turned dark: "What are you talking about, if it wasn't for his father..."

"Your mother is the mistress." Guan Baiyu said again.

"Don't think that Liang Qinxuan will be your friend, he just treats you like a dog."

"You are Xiaosan's son." Guan Baiyu is very serious, for this kind of person...just poke him in the pain.

Seeing Chen Shaojin's expression, he was about to come up and beat someone up. Seeing this, Liang Qinxuan quickly stopped in front of Guan Baiyu.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Shaojin calmed down, looked at Liang Qinxuan and said, "Liang Qinxuan, I know you are angry with my mother, you don't like my mother, I also hate your father, there is nothing good in your family!"

Liang Qinxuan was also on fire.

Chen Shaojin said again: "You can't fight in school. How about we go to the nearby construction site where construction is suspended at four o'clock and fight in the tallest building?"

"Okay! Hit me! I want to beat you up!" Liang Qinxuan said.

Originally, Guan Baiyu told him to ignore Chen Shaojin, so he ignored him, but if he insisted on approaching him, he would not hide!

"I'll wait for you." Chen Shaojin glanced at Liang Qinxuan, turned around and left.

"What's the attitude of this bastard, he thinks he can beat me? See if I don't beat him to death!" Liang Qinxuan turned back and said.

"Are you really going?" Guan Baiyu was shocked.

"He has already made an appointment, how can I not go?" Liang Qinxuan said loudly.

Guan Baiyu: "..." Liang Qinxuan was also easily irritated.

Although Liang Qinxuan seemed to be better at fighting than Chen Shaojin, he would be injured in a fight, isn't that a good thing?

Guan Baiyu can only fool him: "Chen Shaojin is a bit insidious. I think he didn't really want to fight with you when he asked you to fight, but wanted to frame you. If you go as promised, you might fall into his trap." Already!"

"How can he frame me?" Liang Qinxuan asked.

"For example, find a group of people to beat you, or pretend to be beaten by you, and then find someone to complain. There are many ways!"

"Then what should I do?" Liang Qinxuan asked.

Guan Baiyu said: "Don't go."

"Then does he think I'm afraid of him?" Liang Qinxuan asked again.

Guan Baiyu could only say: "Otherwise, how many people do you want to go with? Call a few more, just say that Chen Shaojin asked you to fight, you ask them to be a witness, and you can even call your father."

With outsiders around, they would never fight.

If Liang Qinxuan's father was here, nothing would happen!

"Do you want to go with me?" Liang Qinxuan asked.

"I want to study," Guan Baiyu said, and added, "I think it's best to call your dad."

He doesn't want to participate in the fight, what if he gets a demerit?

If you are not careful, you will be called a parent!

Guan Baiyu was thin and petite, and he looked obedient. Liang Qinxuan was going to fight, so it was really not easy to call him.

But calling him father... that definitely won't work.

His father is here, can he still fight?

Liang Qinxuan thought for a while, originally wanted to find his cronies, but felt that those people were unreliable, when he saw the school basketball team playing basketball, his eyes lit up.

Liang Qinxuan gave them five yuan each, and asked them to accompany him to fight Chen Shaojin... The basketball team all agreed, and of course they also stated: "We will not help you fight!"

"I don't need your help, I can beat him to the teeth all by myself!" Liang Qinxuan was very confident.

After the discussion, Liang Qinxuan played basketball with him for a while, and seeing that the time was almost up, he led a dozen people towards the better place.

As soon as they entered the house, they saw four students in their school uniforms.

They all know these four people. They are poor students who don't study at all in their school and spend their days fooling around.

Compared with these four people, Liang Qinxuan is considered a good student.

That guy Chen Shaojin actually framed him!He even asked these four people to beat him!

Liang Qinxuan was furious when he saw that the four were still holding sticks, but when he saw them, he was also very surprised: "Why are you here?"

"Let's fight! Where's Chen Shaojin?" Liang Qinxuan asked.

"Chen Shaojin? Who is it?" These people were at a loss.

Just talking... someone came again.

This time, there were six people from the society who looked at the sloppy, and they also carried weapons such as sticks. The leader rushed in and said: "You little bastard from the No. [-] middle school, how dare you rob my girlfriend?" ..."

Liang Qinxuan: "!!!"

The person who rushed in: "!!!"

These people who rushed in were actually about seventeen or eighteen years old, and two of them looked particularly thin and small.

As for the members of the No. 1.8 Middle School basketball team...these are mostly sports talents, each of them is tall and burly, and half of them are [-] meters tall.

And the basketball team has fifteen people in total, plus Liang Qinxuan and the four students who were here... Now there are twenty students in No. [-] Middle School uniforms.

The leading member of the society was angry: "You have brought so many people... stupid! Let's go!"

Those who are in the society know that those who know current affairs are heroes, and seeing that there is a high probability that they will not be able to beat them, they just ran away.

Liang Qinxuan: "..." So... where is Chen Shaojin?

Liang Qinxuan was not stupid, and soon realized the problem: "That guy Chen Shaojin framed me!" Chen Shaojin probably knew that someone in their school had invited outsiders to fight in groups, so he tricked him into coming here!

If he came alone, he might be involved in this gang fight!

If I had known him earlier, I would not have called the basketball team to come, but to find his dad!

Alas, why didn't he listen to Guan Baiyu's words?

Liang Qinxuan left the few students who had a group fight with others, and said to the basketball team: "Thank you for today! I treat you, and we will go to the cafeteria to eat tonight!"

The members of the basketball team knew the cause and effect, and they all sympathized with Liang Qinxuan. As for the invitation to dinner...of course they would not refuse.

Who doesn't know that Young Master Liang is very rich. Everyone else only buys one dish when they eat, and Young Master Liang, since entering high school, has to buy all the meat dishes in the cafeteria every time he eats!

A group of people went to the school cafeteria to have dinner, during which Liang Qinxuan called Guan Baiyu.

Knowing the ins and outs, Guan Baiyu was a little confused.

He just said it casually... Didn't expect it to hit the mark?

That Chen Shaojin... is really vicious.

"It's a pity that the teachers like him, and my dad also believes that he doesn't believe me. If I go to sue, they must think that I lied to them." Liang Qinxuan said.

In fact, even if they believed it... today's fight didn't start at all, Chen Shaojin would naturally not be punished.

Guan Baiyu said: "You study hard, and when your grades are good, everyone will trust you."

Liang Qinxuan: "..." He didn't want to talk to Guan Baiyu.

Shi Zhen didn't know what happened in No. [-] Middle School. He was in a very good mood after talking about business with Mr. Wang.

Driving home with a tractor, Shi Zheng just stopped the car when he saw someone selling maltose at the gate of Guan Jianguo.

Old shoes, old washbasins, etc., can be exchanged for maltose with this person, of course, you can also buy them directly.

The children in the village were very enthusiastic and came to buy one after another. Shi Zhen also heard that a child told his mother that he would help with embroidery and asked his mother to buy it for him.

Shi Zhen ignored it, but when he entered the room, Shi Xingchao, who was embroidering clothes, suddenly raised his head: "Ah Zhen..."

"What's wrong?" Shi Zhen asked.

"Have you eaten that malt candy?" Shi Xingchao asked while still embroidering.

"Eat...do you want to eat?" Shi Zhen grasped the point.This kind of maltose is made by himself. It is very sticky. Usually, it is eaten with a stick and rolled up. You can play with it while eating. He tried it in his previous life and didn't like it very much, but Shi Xingchao probably hasn't eaten it... Do you want to eat it?

"Oh, it's okay..." Shi Xingchao sighed and continued to embroider.

Silently, Shi Zhen took [-] cents, bought a roll of maltose, and gave it to Shi Xingchao with a stick.

Shi Xingchao was immediately moved: "Ah Zhen, thank you! In the next few days, I will wash your clothes for you!"

Shi Zhen: "..."
