The Rebirth of 88 Begins with a Carpenter

Chapter 114 This Can’t Be Done, But The Pay Can’t Be Less (Seeking Subscription, 55)
Wu Yuan was thinking about it, when a seemingly simple and honest voice sounded next to him: "Brother, where are you from? How old are you?"

The source of the voice was a man in his early thirties, with a slight beard and a strong voice.

It makes people feel very stable when they hear it.

It was only then that Wu Yuan noticed that he was not the only one chosen.

"I'm from Beigang, I'm 22, how about you?"

"From Pengcheng, brother, I'm 30, and we are half fellows."

When the local dialect was paired, the other party immediately took the initiative to chat: "My name is Peng Erniu, brother, how about you?"

When he said this, Peng Erniu had already changed into a Pengcheng accent.

Wu Yuan also naturally switched to the local accent and said, "Wu Yuan."

"Brother Wu, is this your first time working here?"

This is not true.

It is not the first time to go out, but it is really the first time to work.

Seeing Wu Yuan nod his head, Peng Erniu became more and more complacent. This is a rookie who has never seen the world.

Peng Erniu was about to talk again, but found that the two had followed the female landlord out of the Zhabei labor market and stopped in front of a car.

This female homeowner actually owns a car, she is definitely a rich person!

Peng Erniu's heart skipped a beat, as long as he wins over Wu Yuan, a rural wage earner, he can make a fortune from the female landlord.

As for Wu Yuanrong not being easy to win over?

How difficult can it be to deal with a wage earner who has been traveling for the first time?
It's easy to grab!

But the car that Peng Erniu didn't know was Lada 2105, but Wu Yuan knew it.

When I came to Shanghai a few times before, I took a taxi like this.

I didn't expect that the female homeowner would like such a small car. Apart from being a little bourgeois, it also has a shadow of practicality.

The female homeowner drives the car herself.

Wu Yuan was thinking about sitting in the co-driver or in the back row when he heard the hostess say, "What are you doing in a daze? Get in the car!"

Then Peng Erniu snatched the co-driver at a brisk pace.

Wu Yuan could only sit in the back row and was forced to enjoy the treatment of the boss.

Along the way, Peng Erniu actively talked and chatted with the hostess.

That active performance really has a bit of the greasy look of a veteran migrant worker.

This saves Wu Yuan a lot of trouble.

It turns out that the hostess' surname is Huang and her name is Qiya, and she is single.

The renovated house is a two-bedroom apartment just bought, with an average price of 69 yuan and 2000 square meters.

The total price is nearly 14.

This woman is indeed a rich man!

Peng Erniu became more and more proud, as if there was a big pie in front of him.

Wu Yuan pondered to himself.

This Huang Qiya is probably not just a rich man, but probably has some background.

She is a walking hormone, but she dares to come to this labor market alone to pick people. She has no confidence and reliance, and absolutely dare not do so.

Soon, Lada returned to JA District, a new multi-storey real estate - Huangjiaxiang Community.

The real estate as a whole is not big, with an area of ​​seven or eight buildings.

But because it is in the city center, every inch of land is expensive, so the price cannot be lowered naturally.

Huang Qiya's house is on the 5rd floor of the 3th building in the middle of the community, gold three silver four, the best floor.

In addition, the homeowners he met along the way seemed to be either rich or expensive, which further confirmed Wu Yuan's judgment on Huang Qiya's identity.

Following Huang Qiya upstairs, she saw a female neighbor passing by saying hello to her.

"Sister Qi Ya, where did you find the country bumpkins? You don't care if you hand over the house to them?"

"Don't be foolish, anyway, the house is wooden and has long legs, so I can't run away."

Even though Wu Yuan couldn't speak Shanghainese, he could understand the three words of bumpkin.

Glancing at the charming young Shanghai daughter-in-law, I immediately felt that the cold Huang Qiya was much more pleasing to the eye.

Go up to the third floor and enter 303.

As soon as Huang Qiya closed the door, she immediately began to assign tasks as cold as ice.

These days, most of the decoration is to install the floor, install a suspended ceiling, integrate the kitchen and bathroom, and at most a few pieces of suitable furniture will be assembled on site.

It's not like the later generations. First go to the design, and then divide it into a full package and a half package. Bricklayers, carpenters, and hydropower enter the site in batches...

But even so, Huang Qiya also put forward different requirements for the shape of the walls in the entire room.

For the living room, she wanted to make a different layout and design.

Wu Yuan listened to it for a long time, and it was generally similar to the design idea of ​​the TV background wall of later generations.

However, before he could speak, Peng Erniu, who was confused, shook his head and refused, "This can't be done."

This guy didn't even think about whether Wu Yuan would know it or not.

Also, who would have thought a carpenter in his early twenties could know that much?

Wu Yuan immediately lowered his impression of Peng Erniu by a notch: not only greasy, but also self-righteous.

As a result, Huang Qiya didn't let go of this area, and said: I'll find someone to look at it, and don't move this area yet.

Finally, we talked about wages.

Peng Erniu played the emotional card for a long time, seeing that Huang Qiya was getting impatient, and then he said: "It costs 15 yuan a day, and I don't want to do anything less."

Wu Yuan's eyelids twitched.

Good guy, this old man is really dark.

Now the average monthly salary in Shanghai is only 200 yuan, which is reduced to six or seven yuan a day.

How dare you ask for 15 in one go?

After thinking about it, Huang Qiya is obviously pampered and inexperienced.

The wages should have been negotiated in the labor market. How could you start the negotiation after bringing people back?
Directly from a seller's market to a buyer's market.

Huang Qiya thought for 2 minutes, and finally agreed: "Okay, then you can start today, write down any materials you need, and I will come here every day."

"Come on, Miss Huang, wrap it on me!"

Peng Erniu slapped his chest loudly.

After watching Huang Qiya go away through the window, Peng Erniu turned his head and sat down on the wooden board, and said to Wu Yuan who was packing up tools: "Brother Wu, don't be too busy. Let's rest for a long time!"

Is it time to start mixing jobs?
Wu Yuan frowned, but he didn't sit down directly, but slowed down his movements and dealt with it first.

Immediately afterwards, Peng Erniu said: "Brother Wu, let me tell you the truth. I negotiated the salary today, so I will take 5 yuan a day from you. Isn't it too much?"

"Actually, this is also the rule of going out to work. You are a newcomer, and it is your luck to meet me. If you are someone else, you may not be able to negotiate for 10 yuan a day. What's more, I am an old master. You just look at it. For a novice, it’s good to get 10 yuan a day.”

As he said that, Peng Erniu also handed over a red tower mountain and said, "I'll give you a good cigarette to try. I'm sure you haven't tasted it in your hometown, have you?"

Wu Yuan didn't intend to pick it up.

Peng Erniu also desperately sent.

It was as if Wu Yuan accepted the cigarette and accepted the agreement that he forcibly smoked it.

In the end Peng Erniu threw it directly.

Wu Yuan took it casually and put it behind his ear.

Then he said casually, "I'll take a look around first."

Peng Erniu nodded indifferently, and muttered, "Young man, you won't enjoy the blessings! It's too real, and you will suffer sooner or later. In the colorful world outside, you can gain a firm foothold without working hard..."
