Chapter 346 Chatting

Under the influence of the food, the relationship between the few people and Ye Qing quickly became acquainted, especially the little girl who was deeply loved by Zhao Ling, who blushed under Zhao Ling’s feed. .

Although Peier usually does some heavy work on the construction site, it does not mean that she is a very outgoing girl. On the contrary, facing Zhao Ling, the “stranger” who had just met, Pian’er was still very shy.

But Rao was so, the power of food still made Peier accept Zhao Ling’s kindness. At the same time, Peer was shocked secretly, this lady who seemed to be pampered, had such amazing cooking skills.

Soon, everyone at the dinner table began to communicate. This is also the reason why Ye Qing asked these workers to stay for dinner, not only to leave a good impression on them, but also to inquire and confirm some news.

“Miss 590 Beth, are you all local workers?” Ye Qing asked one of the white women.

The woman named Beth nodded and replied: “Yes, the people who worked here were local farmers and workers. But because the environment in the Sierra Nevada Mountains is too harsh, my husband and others are not very comfortable in such an environment. The railway was laid down. Later, a large number of Chinese workers came to the construction site.”

Ye Qing felt stunned, but still smiled unchanged, nodded, and continued to ask: “How is the working ability of Chinese workers?

Ye Qing’s gentle tone made Beth a little flattered. When did all the people in charge, including Harris, say this to these female workers!

“Yes, these Chinese workers are very hardworking and intelligent, and they have overcome many problems that could not be solved before.” Beth replied immediately, with admiration for these Chinese workers in her tone.

You know, these locals were very disdainful of the Chinese. Now Beth’s tone shows how much shock the Chinese workers’ ability to work has given them.

Of course, since Ye Qing and Beth communicated in English, the few Chinese women present did not hear Beth’s admiration for them.

“Okay, thank you for your answer.” Ye Qing’s smile on his face grew stronger, and he thanked Beth.

Afterwards, Ye Qing turned his head and asked a Chinese woman in Chinese: “Sister Li, how do you like this lunch?” When cleaning, Ye Qing had already had a brief conversation with these fellow villagers. Exchanges, know how to call them. But because they are cleaning, and before this meal, Sister Li and the others are not very comfortable with the communication with Ye Qing, so there is not much communication.

Now after eating together, the communication between the two parties has become smoother.

Hearing Ye Qing’s question, Sister Li immediately smiled and said, “Sir, this meal is really great. It’s our own taste, authentic!”

Zhao Ling, who was sitting next to Ye Qing, smiled. She was praised for the dishes she cooked, and it was something she was happy about.

“Sister Li, you can be satisfied.” Ye Qing continued, “I’m leaving everyone for dinner today. Actually, there are some things I want to ask everyone. I hope you can answer me.”

“No problem, sir, what do you want to ask, as long as the eldest sister I know, I must tell you.” Sister Li is the most free and easy character among these Chinese workers, which is why Ye Qing asked Sister Li directly.

“Sister Li, we Chinese, how do you work here. Can you keep up with the daily expenses?”

Sister Li didn’t hesitate, she just “barely able to live. It was a lot better than the turmoil in the country before.”

Most of these Chinese workers ventured abroad to escape the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in China at this time. Therefore, although the pay here is low and the workload is large, at least most of the people will have no problem keeping their lives.




Ye Qing nodded clearly, and continued to ask: “Then what are the working hours and wages on our side?

Sister Li was silent for a few seconds before she said: “My man works outside the tunnel. He has to work for more than ten hours a day, and he can earn more than thirty dollars a month.” After living here for so long, Sister Li is very concerned about this. Common sense such as the currency of the side is also acceptable.

“Okay, I probably understand.” Ye Qing said softly. Sister Li’s silence for a few seconds has already let Ye Qing know that life here is also difficult.

“Sir, what use is it for you to ask this?” Sister Li looked at her green eyes, and she asked, as if she had gathered up her courage.

“Mr. Jia feels that such working hours are too inefficient and want to make some changes. Asking these is to understand the living conditions of our Chinese workers here, so that we can make adjustments later.” Ye Qing explained to Sister Li. Said, “So thank Sister Li for cooperating with my question.”

“No, no, this is what we should do.” Sister Li said with some embarrassment. Then she looked at the table and found that everyone seemed to have eaten almost, so she continued, “May I ask how many people have finished eating? , How about I clean up the table for you.

“No, you go back quickly, here we can do it ourselves.”

Sister Li obviously hesitated for a while, but from the many details just now, it can be seen that these gentlemen and ladies are obviously more willing to take care of their own residences without their help.

“Okay, then we will leave first.” Sister Li and the sisters around looked at each other, and said helplessly.

“Okay, pay attention to safety on the road.” Ye Qing replied gently with a smile, and at the same time said to Beth and the others on the side: “Beth, you can also go first, there is nothing to help here. .

Beth was stunned. Seeing that the Chinese workers on the side had already begun to walk outside the door, Beth stopped talking, bowed to Ye Qing, and turned and left.

Zhao Ling reluctantly said goodbye to Pei, and returned to the restaurant when he was sent to the door.

2.5 As soon as I returned to the restaurant, I saw Ye Qing sitting on his seat thoughtfully, motionless.

“What are you thinking about?” Zhao Ling asked as he walked to Ye Qing’s side and cleaned the dining table.

“I was thinking about the next plan.” Ye Qing didn’t look up, but just replied, “I plan to let Harris come to us for a meal in the evening.

Zhao Ling glanced at Ye Qing in surprise, but didn’t say much. She knew Ye Qing had her own plan.

The red beard sitting on the side said, “Why, boy, do you have any ideas?”

“It’s okay. Some things need to be asked clearly to facilitate follow-up actions.” Then, Ye Qing stood up and walked outside, “I’ll find a supervisor and let him notify Harris.”
