Little Life on An American Ranch: Chapter 544 conflict
Chapter 544 Conflict
After spending a few days, Jian Heng and Ceresto, together with Professor Guan and a teacher brought by Professor Guan, sorted out everything, put forward corresponding job suggestions, and finally calculated the entire project To complete the project on time, Ceresto must have at least 25 or more carpenters and more than a dozen masons. Electricians and others must be counted separately. In addition to these, some Handyman.
Ceresto made a plan and initially hired manpower, and initially signed an agreement with Jian Heng. Things were almost the same, and the professor off there set off from China, flew from the capital to San Francisco, and then rushed over to Kalispell.
When someone from Professor Guan's side came, Jian Heng would definitely go to pick him up. He originally thought of hiring a bigger car, which was almost like a minibus, to pick him up. Who knew that when Jian Heng opened his mouth, he would pick him up. Ceresto was all set.
A group of people arrived at the airport, the plane had not yet landed, and there was still half an hour before the plane arrived, so everyone chatted freely.
Ceresto didn't have the time to chat with Jian Heng at this time, seeing that the project was about to start, Ceresto had to work **** his side. For the largest list, Celesto means to make it a model, something similar to a domestic model project.
In this case, when he takes orders in the future, he will be more confident.
Several people got together to discuss the project, and Jian Heng was naturally not interested in participating. Now Jian Heng is almost letting go, and only pays attention to the quality during the construction process.
Zhang Jialiang followed Jian Heng to be the driver. The car he drove was not a pickup, but the seven-seater Lexus of Jian Heng's family. Seeing a group of people from Ceresto whispering to each other, he leaned close to Jian Heng's ear and whispered Said: "This old Sai has become half a China hand now! He even knows how to find a car to pick up people!"
"What's so strange about this? If you want to make money, you don't have to learn about other people's customs? You think they are all like you, and you are trying to find a good job and push back and forth, like killing you!" Jian Heng said with a smile.
Zhang Jialiang said: "Boss, can you stop mentioning this matter! I've already said that I'll take this job!"
"You're still not happy to say a few words about you, you know I'm going to let the word out, how many people want to do this job have no chance?" Jian Heng said with a straight face.
"Okay, boss, I was wrong! I told my dad about this once, and he immediately let me go on, and scolded me!" Zhang Jialiang immediately gave up, this kid is not stupid, Besides, even if he is stupid, his parents are not stupid. When his father heard that his son had this opportunity, he wished he could fly over from New York and give his son a hard lesson by the ear.
"Okay, I won't talk about this in the future. Anyway, you won't be here for a few months. When the store in Los Angeles starts to be renovated, you will follow."
Speaking of this, Jian Heng suddenly felt a little reluctant in his heart. It has not been a few months since he came to New York. Zhang Jialiang, Luo Min, and Zhang Yiping followed him all the way. For several years, Everyone stayed together almost every day, like a family member. Although Zhang Yiping rebelled later, Zhang Jialiang and Luo Min remained firmly by Jian Heng's side, which made Jian Heng very pleased.
Now one of them has left the United States to develop domestically, and the other will run between New York and Los Angeles in the future, and maybe only meet each other during the holidays. This makes Jian Heng a little unaccustomed, and suddenly there is a feeling The feeling that the little eagle that was cared for under its own wings wants to spread its wings to the blue sky.
"Boss, my home is still here. The ranch I bought with a lot of money is still there. My children will go to school here in the future. I'm still waiting for the housing prices here to soar as you said." Zhang Jialiang is heartless Said.
After talking about this, Zhang Jialiang remembered something, leaned into Jian Heng's ear and said: "Boss, let me tell you that I went to the town yesterday and saw that old guy Ceresto recruiting odd jobs, that salary! Tsk tsk! "
"What's the matter? Very low? Didn't recruit anyone?" Jian Heng was at home all day yesterday, playing with the bamboo that had just sprouted on his side, and didn't have time to go around the town, so he didn't know that Ceresto was recruiting odd jobs in the town. scene.
Zhang Jialiang said: "How can there be no one? You don't know yet. Now the town wants to hire odd jobs, that is, the normal minimum wage, the kind that is calculated by the hour, and you just broke your head like this!"
"Although it's not a busy time, it's not an off-season either. Why is labor so cheap?" Although Jian Heng thought of a reason, he still found it strange.
The wages of western cowboys are very low. Of course, this low is based on life in the United States. If it is placed in China, it will cost more than 100,000 to 200,000 yuan a year, and the consumption in the United States is not much higher than that in China. , The prices of their meat and vegetables are not much different from those in China when they are converted into RMB. So even with a basic salary, Americans can afford to eat meat every meal. If you earn more than 1,000 a month in China, can you eat meat every meal? Think beautiful!
Of course, this is the off-season. In the peak season, the labor force can be increased by half at most, and it can be doubled for good denim. But now this season minimum living guarantee? It's a little low.
Zhang Jialiang said: "What's strange is that the bounty hunters who came last year are not reduced to doing odd jobs to make a living after leaving. Those who came later than them have also started to save. The newcomers are not like before. Those who spend a lot of money like that, have made up their minds to prepare for a protracted war, so the bounty hunters are not only downgraded in consumption, but also looking for jobs everywhere. When there are more people looking for jobs, the cost will naturally come down, but now There are also more jobs, such as the transportation industry, the service industry, and a lot more jobs than before... ".
Jian Heng understands what Zhang Jialiang said. Generally speaking, when the population of a small town increases, the demand for labor force in all aspects of life will naturally increase. Population is the most critical factor in the market. No one, even you Tens of thousands of acres of fertile land are useless. There is a market only if there is a population. How can there be a consumer group if there is no population?
"Ceresto is recruiting eight odd jobs here, do you know how many people have signed up?"
Having said this, Zhang Jialiang raised his hands without waiting for Jian Heng's answer, and turned them back and forth twice!
Jian Heng just wanted to ask, when he heard the sound of the broadcast in his ears, the flight from San Francisco will land at the airport on time.
"Twenty-two?"
"This is twenty-two, forty people," Zhang Jialiang said.
"Are you forty?" Jian Heng imitated Zhang Jialiang's gestures and asked disdainfully.
"In short, there are a lot of people who signed up!"
"There are more and more people in the town!" Jian Heng said with emotion.
"There are more and more people traveling now, and I don't know what these people think, but some people say that seeing the Wolf King can bring good luck!" Zhang Jialiang said helplessly.
To be honest, this rumor also made Jian Heng very speechless. When he first heard it, Jian Heng couldn't believe that there were such idiots in the world, but when he met this group of people in person, he didn't know what to do. Know how to react.
The wolf king with a bad reputation is hooked up with the mascot. Jian Heng really admires this group of American businessmen who dare to cheat on everything. I don’t know if they are born with risk factors or what. Let’s see the wolf king’ find There are really more and more lucky guys, especially middle-aged people. This group of people usually have a little money and strong spending power, and soon became the most popular guests in the nearby town.
Looking at the wolf king for good luck, this idea seems silly, but it really attracted people, and the number is still growing. However, there is no one who is really destined to see the wolf king, and occasionally there are a few who claim to have photographed the wolf king, but it turns out that they are just ordinary black wolves.
Discussed with Zhang Jialiang, and Jian Heng heard the news of the landing of the plane, so he gestured to Zhang Jialiang, Zhang Jialiang knowingly raised the card in his hand, and saw that it read: Welcome Professor Guan and his party!
