Chapter 139 Bad Weather (33)
In fact, people working in real estate, as well as other industries such as tourism, logistics companies, brokerage companies, etc., all carry a kind of original sin.
There was an old saying in the past: The innkeepers and porters should be killed even if they are innocent.
People who work in real estate generally deal with three industries: "cars", "stores" and "dental".
Cars represent the logistics industry.
Shop can be understood as hotel or shop.
Ya is a labor agency, and contractor is one of them.
To give a simple example, consider the contractors and labor agencies (contractors) that work with real estate companies.
Of course, contractor is just a common name. In fact, the work done by a contractor is not much different from that of a labor agency. They also collect money from both sides.
That is, they charge labor fees from the real estate developers and referral fees from the people being introduced.
Even so, the intermediary companies (contractors) are still not satisfied. In order to gain profits, they use all kinds of calculations, the most obvious of which are "summer vacation workers", "winter vacation workers" and "part-time workers".
When real estate developers make budgets, they find that the wages for many types of jobs are actually similar.
However, the agency recruits short-term workers such as "summer workers" and offers wages far lower than normal wages.
In addition, some intermediary companies will charge this fee and that fee. The fees are not much, just a few dozen or so.
They said that if I completed the agreed time, the money would be refunded.
If you don't complete the work, the money will become a deposit and will not be refunded.
Even if the work is completed, these expenses can rarely be recovered in full.
More will be calculated as 'depreciation', 'water and electricity bills', 'travel expenses' and so on.
In addition, the payment of wages is usually delayed by at least one or two months, and in some cases, it is delayed for half a year or even a year.
Every profit made by the intermediary company (contractor) is borne with blood.
Real estate developers can cooperate with real estate agencies (contractors), which naturally makes them one of the main culprits in exploiting workers.
The first step that Su Mingzhe and Lin Yuanxing took to reform the company was to create files and cards for every worker on the construction site, and then Wanbao Shengtai would pay their wages directly every month.
The practice of contractors taking commissions has been eliminated.
When Wanbao Shengtai announced its decision to all its contractors, many contractors still wanted to clamor to cancel their cooperation with Wanbao Shengtai.
However, when Wanbao Shengtai acquired several plots of land and started looking for cooperative contractors, more state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises came to seek cooperation.
"This is how the pattern determines the vision."
The development plan that Su Mingzhe formulated for Wanbao Shengtai is very stable.
Starting from late June, it is time for final exams in various subjects.
The school's risk control began to implement a policy of tightening the outside and loosening the inside.
Su Mingzhe and Yang Xue also returned to live in school.
The day after Su Mingzhe returned to school, Yang Zixi came up to him again.
It’s no wonder that after not seeing each other for two months, Su Mingzhe actually missed Yang Zixi a little.
Especially those big watery eyes, looking at you lovingly, and then running towards you, with surging eyes that are so bright that they almost blind your eyes.
"It seems that my concentration still needs to be improved."
Su Mingzhe knows his own business. He has never been considered a good man. The reason why he could resist and not be tempted by Yang Zixi was entirely because of his extensive experience and knowledge in previous lives.
"Siqi, you're back?"
Yang Zixi was wearing a pink and black yoga suit that outlined her perfect figure. She came to Su Mingzhe and stopped, a look of surprise on her face.
"The exam is coming up soon, so I'll come back with Yang Xue."
Su Mingzhe said this and took another quick look. Yang Zixi usually wore loose clothes, but you couldn't tell that her figure was so exaggerated.
"You stand on the bridge and enjoy the scenery, while the people who enjoy the scenery are watching you from upstairs."
Su Mingzhe admired Yang Zixi's figure, and Yang Zixi also looked at Su Mingzhe's toned and powerful muscles.
Yang Zixi ran past Su Mingzhe, and Su Mingzhe continued to practice Tai Chi.
After decades of training in two worlds, Tai Chi, Hung Gar, Xingyiquan and Bajiquan have all been upgraded to L9.
However, at this stage, there are only two ways to go further.
1. Use experience points to improve, but experience points take decades to accumulate.
Second, immerse yourself in this skill and devote yourself to innovation.
In both the worlds of "Love in the Courtyard" and "All Is Well", Su Mingzhe used the second method to upgrade [Baguazhang] and [Cooking Skills] to level L10.
"Unfortunately, this is too much of a test of understanding."
Su Mingzhe finished his morning exercise, and Yang Zixi, who had stopped running long ago in the distance, immediately jogged over.
In June, even in the morning, a little exercise will make you sweat.
The two men walked out of the playground side by side. To outsiders, their faces were red and covered in sweat. If they were not in the playground, they would be easily misunderstood as doing something bad.
Seeing that they were about to separate, Su Mingzhe couldn't help but persuade the girl:
"Yang Zixi, the final exam is coming soon, don't delay the exam."
"I see. Is this considered caring about me?"
“Just advice between friends.”
Yang Zixi already had a smile as beautiful as a flower, and when she heard the boy's words, her smile became even brighter.
Su Mingzhe looked at Yang Zixi, and for some reason, he suddenly thought of the word "dog licker".
Yang Zixi's attitude towards herself now has a bit of that meaning.
In the following few days, Yang Zixi did not come to attend classes every day like before, but after class, she ignored Yang Xue's ugly face and insisted on coming over.
In the library, restaurant, study room, etc., there is a very infuriating thing. A very handsome boy, with a beautiful woman sitting on each side.
"How shameless."
Yang Xue was almost mad at Yang Zixi's shamelessness, but she was a woman who cared about her reputation, and she couldn't bring herself to quarrel with Yang Zixi in public.
In order to prevent his girlfriend from getting angry, Su Mingzhe also advised Yang Zixi several times.
However, Yang Zixi acted as if she was pursuing true love and she was right, and she won the support of many people.
Finally, the final exam is over.
Yang Xue pulled Su Mingzhe away from the school as if they were fleeing.
"Sister Ning, tell me, is this really useful?"
After accepting Zhong Ning's "sponsorship" several times, Yang Zixi has almost become Zhong Ning's little follower, and follows Zhong Ning's instructions in everything she does.
"Don't worry, as long as you hold on for another half a year, Yang Xue will leave school and go out to find a job and internship," Zhong Ning said, with a hint of confidence in his eyes, "By then, Si Qi will stay in school alone, and the efforts you make now will bear rich fruits."
After listening to Zhong Ning's explanation, Yang Zixi secretly encouraged herself in her heart. While working hard and persevering, she also made up her mind that after she succeeded in getting promoted, she would never give other women the opportunity to take advantage of her.
Zhong Ning looked at Yang Zixi with a confident look on her face. While he felt contempt for her, he also felt sorry for this woman who had no idea she was doing this.
But it's better this way. Only by cooperating with such a stupid woman can we ensure that after Yang Xue and Su Mingzhe are separated, other women will not reap the fruits:
"By the way, does he like those clothes and perfumes?"
"I like them all. Sometimes, his eyes go straight."
Yang Zixi couldn't hide her happiness when she talked about this.
Every time during morning exercise, I would meet Su Mingzhe on the playground. When Su Mingzhe glanced at me, he would reveal that kind of fiery and greedy look. This was the motivation for me to persist in being a "dog".
Zhong Ning was not surprised by this.
Nine out of ten men are bad, and the other one is up to no good.
Su Mingzhe is not a saint, so he is naturally not immune to women.
And Yang Zixi is indeed very feminine and very attractive to men.
Zhong Ning also values Yang Zixi's appearance, which is why he decided to work with her.
The two women talked for a long time before they separated.
Before leaving, Zhong Ning left another stack of banknotes for Yang Zixi, which was all funds to support Yang Zixi in seducing Su Mingzhe.
"What's so great about being rich? When I get rich, I'll throw money in your face!"
Although Yang Zixi accepted all the money, she still had an inferiority complex deep down in her heart. She always felt that after taking the money, she was inferior to Zhong Ning when facing him.
But if she didn't take this money, the 300 yuan living expenses given by Yang Zixi's parents would not be enough to support her monthly consumption.
It’s not easy to live in Yanjing.
In early July, after Su Mingzhe and Yang Xue had their holiday, they went to see Yang Min first.
Yang Min, who is seven months pregnant, has a very big belly, but she still insists on going to work.
When Li Guodong saw Su Mingzhe and Yang Xue coming to see Yang Min, he immediately made a bitter face and begged in front of them:
"You two are here. Xiaoxue, please try to persuade your sister. She's so pregnant, yet she still goes to work every day. Their company doesn't need someone like her."
Yang Min was unhappy when she heard this:
"Xiaoxue, don't listen to your brother-in-law's nonsense. I'm only a few months pregnant. In foreign countries, pregnant women in their seventh and eighth months can still drive themselves to go shopping."
"Sister, please sit down."
Yang Xue looked at her elder sister's powerful voice with a helpless look on her face. Her elder sister had been a little fierce since she was a child, and she didn't dare to persuade her elder sister to rest or anything like that.
Li Guodong also realized that he had married a tigress.
"Brother Guodong, if my elder sister wants to go to work, let her go. Just remember to go for the prenatal checkup on time."
Su Mingzhe pulled Li Guodong to sit aside and put the gift aside.
Su Mingzhe still has some say on the matter of being a father. After all, according to He Yuzhu's memory, he had also been the father of several children.
Because Yang Min couldn't be too excited or too tired, Su Mingzhe and Yang Xue had lunch and then said goodbye and left.
After the summer vacation, Yang Xue became a stay-at-home girl, staying at home typing every day. Occasionally, when the weather was good, she would ask Su Mingzhe to take her out shopping.
But most of the time, Yanjing is sunny and windy.
Dust storms often shroud the city.
When you stay at home, you usually keep the doors and windows closed. Otherwise, after half a day, the balcony will be covered with a layer of fine sand.
This is the city of Yanjing at the beginning of the century.
No one has mentioned the word smog yet.
But it’s not far away.
By next year, there will be reports from abroad that the entire north is covered by a "brown" dust cloud, and that this dust cloud is spreading rapidly in all directions.
By 05, smog will become a topic that every household cannot avoid.
The sandstorm is really too serious.
"Wife, why don't we go to the south for the summer vacation?"
Su Mingzhe came back from the construction site again, covered in dust. He went home, took off his clothes, and took a shower.
Su Mingzhe couldn't stand this kind of sandstorm weather.
"Don't go."
Yang Xue has been a stay-at-home girl ever since she started typing.
And there is a trend of evolving towards the path of "rotten girls".
Su Mingzhe feels that his life is full of surprises every day.
