Chapter 112 Finding a Job

After Wang just finished drinking the milk, Hu Dawei also drove there.

Hu Dawei walked in directly from the outer door of the kitchen and greeted everyone.

"Good morning everyone!"

Susan responded politely. Wu Fei also seemed to know Hu Dawei, so he greeted him listlessly.

"What's wrong with Feifei today? Are you so depressed?" Hu Dawei asked Susan a little strangely.

"It's nothing, Feifei and Jack had some trouble."

Susan told Hu Dawei what happened in the bathroom yesterday.

"The door lock is broken, so I'll fix it." Hu Dawei enthusiastically picked up the toolbox and prepared to go upstairs.

Susan smiled and said, "I don't have any wages for you."

Hu Dawei laughed and said, "Just treat me to breakfast."

Susan smiled and nodded in agreement, and prepared a copy for Wang Gang by the way.

Wang Gang thanked him, and then went upstairs with Hu Dawei.

"I didn't expect you to repair door locks?" Wang Gang said to Hu Dawei.

"In the United States, labor is expensive, and it is very expensive to hire someone to repair the lock, so if something breaks at home, I have to repair it myself."

Hu Dawei squatted down and checked the door lock. When he found that the door bolt was broken, he couldn't help being taken aback.

"You can see it too! The door lock was artificially damaged."

Hu Dawei quickly closed the bathroom door and reminded Wang Gang: "We all live under the same roof, let's talk about any conflicts, and don't destroy things."

Wang Gang laughed and said, "You thought I broke the door lock, please, I just arrived yesterday."

Hu Dawei also realized that Wang Gang had no reason to destroy the door lock.

Wang Gang said quietly: "Before I came, there were three people living in the house. Wu Fei was the victim and Susan was the owner. Who do you think broke the lock?"

Hu Dawei's eyes lit up, and then he sighed: "I know that stick is not a good thing."

"Didn't Park Seung-ki come here arranged by your agency?"

"No, he is an international student at Stanford, but he is not an international student handled by our agency. He found it by himself after seeing the rental advertisement posted by Susan in the school."

Wang Gang was stunned.

"Don't worry about this matter, I have a chance to talk to Susan alone, and find a way to get rid of that stick." Hu Dawei urged.

Wang Gang nodded and didn't take this matter to heart.

The two repaired the door lock for a while, and they were sure that it would not be repaired for a while, and the lock had to be changed again, so they went downstairs to explain to Susan.

"When I bring Jack back in the afternoon, I will drop by the hardware store to buy a lock and replace it for you." Hu Dawei glanced at Park Seung-ki who was eating breakfast, and said to Susan:
"Be careful when using the bathroom today."

"Thank you, how much did you pay for the lock? I'll give it to you later." Susan said.

"I'll settle with you when I get back." Hu Dawei said while eating breakfast.

Susan also prepared an American breakfast for Wang Gang, but he was not used to it, and he missed Sijiucheng's soy sauce fried rings very much.

After breakfast, Wang Gang helped wash the dishes before going to school with Hu Dawei.

Wu Fei had class this morning, and Hu Dawei took her along along the way.

As for Pu Shengji, Hu Dawei didn't care, Wang Gang saw that he was riding a bicycle.

Susan's house is next to Stanford, very close to the school, and it takes only 10 minutes to walk there. It is a proper school district room.

It's just that the Stanford campus is very large. After entering, Hu Dawei walked around for a few minutes before arriving at the Academic Affairs Building, and put Wu Fei at the door of a teaching building on the way.

Hu Dawei parked the car with ease, and then took Wang Gang to apply for student status and collect class schedules.

Hu Dawei had already paid the tuition fee before, so it saved Wang Gang a little time.

After finishing everything, it was almost 11 o'clock, Wang Gang proposed to invite Hu Dawei to have a meal, and thanked him for his help.

"Let's eat in the school cafeteria! The prices in the United States are very expensive, and a meal outside is not cheap. We can also visit the campus by the way." Hu Dawei laughed.

Wang Gang thought about his wallet, let's eat in the cafeteria!
There are nine cafeterias in Stanford, and Hu Dawei took Wang Gang to the nearest cafeteria.

Wang Gang also discovered that the cafeteria adopts a buffet style, and the price is 8 yuan for breakfast, 12 yuan for lunch, and 14 yuan for dinner.

All knives are used here.

Wang Gang and Hu Dawei spent 24 U.S. dollars for a lunch, which would cost 160 U.S. dollars in currency, which is not cheap as far as the cafeteria is concerned.

Thinking about domestic canteens, where you can eat all you can for ten yuan, Wang Gang felt that his 15 living expenses would not last long.

Wang Gang once again thought of working half-study.

"David, do you know where you can get a part-time job?" Wang Gang asked while eating.

"You want to work to make money?" Hu Dawei didn't seem surprised, and said calmly: "There are not many ways for international students to work, so it's better to study hard and win scholarships."

Wang Gang took a sip of water and said, "My family's conditions are not very good. It's not easy for my parents to send me to study abroad. My family has sold a house. I want to earn some money as soon as possible and send it back to buy the house."

Hu Dawei sighed: "Let me tell you the truth! It is very difficult for you to work.

You came to the United States to apply for a student visa, not a work visa. The American government does not allow you to work casually. "

Wang Gang also learned that there are not many places where international students can work in the United States, and there are many restrictions. Most of the work places are limited to schools, such as cafeterias and supermarkets, and there are few jobs.

There are more restrictions on foreign students working abroad. For example, the work must be related to the major they are studying, and the employer has to go through the formalities of the school, which is very cumbersome. Unless they are special talents, no company will recruit foreign students.

Zhao Meilan and Su Daqiang just didn't understand the situation, and thought that after Su Mingzhe came to the United States, he could find a high-paying job at will, and he could send a dollar to his family.

"The school has already robbed all the positions, so don't even think about it." Hu Dawei said, "As for the jobs outside the school, I can help you find them, but they are illegal jobs, the salary is less than others, and you have to bear a lot of burden. Risk, in case of being found out by the school, not only will the student be expelled, but will also be sent back to the country.

You should think about it. "

Wang Gang thought for a while and said, "It's okay, you can help me find it, and I will bear the risk myself."

Hu Dawei sighed and said, "Okay! I'll figure out a way. Do you have any specialties?"

Wang Gang was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't know what his specialty was. Did he tell Hu Dawei that his specialty was doing business?
Looking at the food on the plate, Wang Gang had an idea and said: "I can cook, and I am good at Sichuan cuisine and Tanjia cuisine."

"Are you a cook?!"

Now it was Hu Dawei's turn to be surprised.

"Do you have a domestic chef certificate?"

"No, my cooking skills are inherited from my family. If you have the opportunity, you can try the dishes." Wang Gang said confidently.

In the courtyard world, Wang Gang not only opened a chain restaurant, but also learned all the skills of He Yuzhu, cooking authentic Sichuan cuisine.

As for Tan Jiacai, it was He Yuzhu's family heirloom, and Wang Gang was his brother-in-law, so it's not wrong to say a family heirloom.

Hu Dawei regained his energy when he heard that, and said: "There are many Chinese restaurants near Stanford, but they all lack good chefs. If you are really skilled, I will definitely find you a job and handle the work procedures for you."

Wang Gang did not expect that Chinese cooking is quite popular in the United States.

"Nowadays, many foreigners like Chinese food, especially Sichuan food, which has a strong taste. San Francisco has the largest number of Chinese people, and there are many Chinese restaurants. But good and bad are mixed." Hu Dawei excitedly said:
"I know a Chinese restaurant. Because a chef returned to China, many customers who liked his cooking left. The boss is worried!"

Wang Gang smiled and said, "You know all about this kind of thing?"

Hu Dawei explained: "The Chinese are actually discriminated against in the United States. They like to report to the group to keep warm. Basically, they know what happened in any one."

Although the United States has always advocated democracy and peace and opposed discrimination, it is the country with the most serious racial discrimination in the world.

White people discriminate against black people, black people look down on rice dumplings, and yellow people are at the bottom of the discrimination chain. This is not news.

"If you're free in the afternoon, we'll take a trip and try our skills. If it works, I don't think the restaurant owner would mind helping you with your work visa." Hu Dawei didn't want to talk about discrimination in depth, so he interrupted on purpose.

"No problem, I am still very confident in my craft." Wang Gang smiled.
