I have a fortune

Chapter 7 Unemployment
Qingwu County was still a place like a village more than [-] years ago, but it has been developing continuously in a short period of time, especially in the past ten years, there are construction sites everywhere.

One after another buildings were built, and they were sold before they were fully completed.

The house bought by Qin Yun's family has not yet been obtained, and it will take at least a year before the key can be obtained.

While selling, the money after the sale is used for construction, which has become a trend of selling houses.

Qin Yun's father, Qin Guodong, was at a construction site.

At this time, not only Qin Guodong, but Zhao Mei was also here. She was pushing a small cart, which was full of gravel, etc. It was obviously very difficult for her to push it.

Qin Guodong has skills, but Zhao Mei does not, and Zhao Mei will not be allowed to become a regular worker on the construction site, so her job here is to do odd jobs, responsible for moving things, etc. This is a hard job, and the salary is compared to Qin Guodong is also much worse.

But Zhao Mei didn't complain at all, and worked hard.

There was a hint of summer heat in the May sky. At this time, the sweat on Zhao Mei's face continued to slide. When the temperature rises, it will be even harder to do things.

"call!"

Finally, after finishing the work, Zhao Mei wiped off her sweat with a dusty towel, came to Qin Guodong's place, and asked, "How long can we continue to do things here?"

Doing odd jobs like this on the construction site does not happen every day. Maybe Qin Guodong and others do odd jobs for less than ten days on the construction site for a month.

"There is a period of time, at least until June." Qin Guodong let out a deep breath.

"Great." Hearing what he said, Zhao Mei was overjoyed all of a sudden.

"Old Qin, why don't you leave after get off work?"

A few people came not far away, and said with a smile, each of them was wearing a vest, with a lot of dust on their bodies, and their faces were swarthy.

They got off work early today, so they can also take a break.

"Leave immediately."

Qin Guodong also said with a smile.

These are his co-workers, who have been working with each other for more than ten years.

Whoever found the site was going to find a few others, obviously a small group.

"Zhao Mei!"

At this moment, suddenly a fat man in a white shirt came.

"Lin Gong." Seeing the fat man, Zhao Mei quickly responded and trotted over.

This fat man is the contractor on this construction site, and he is in charge of this building.

But the obese man likes to wander around when he has nothing to do. Sometimes he suddenly appears in one place, as if he is worried about the work of these workers, staring secretly, sometimes it can scare people.

In addition, he usually likes to deliberately find faults, and many workers are dissatisfied with him.

But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction. There are many things on this construction site, which can be done for more than half a year. This dissatisfaction is also tolerated by them.

Looking at Zhao Mei who was slightly bent in front of him, the contractor said directly: "You don't need to come tomorrow, we will have other odd jobs."

"what?"

Hearing what the contractor said, Zhao Mei was taken aback.

However, the contractor didn't say much, and left directly after speaking.

"What happened? Lao Qin's wife did a good job, but the contractor actually fired her?"

"I seem to have seen other people find the contractor today, and a middle-aged woman who seems to be an acquaintance of the contractor."

"This foreman must have left things to his acquaintances to do."

Seeing this, the other workers were all talking.

Although the chores on the construction site are a bit tiring, they are obviously more profitable than working in a shop.

After being stunned for a while, Zhao Mei finally came to her senses at this time, and she became anxious all of a sudden.

"Old Qin, I was fired? What should I do?"

Zhao Mei said anxiously: "After Xiaoyun, the cost of going to college and the mortgage, what should I do?"

Her anxious tears even flowed out all at once.

Zhao Mei has no education. When she was a child, her family was poor, and she didn't read a book for a year. At most, she could only know a few words.

Without education, she can do very little. Except for the construction site, she will go to other places to do odd jobs.

However, although they worked hard on the construction site, they earned the most money. If the jobs here were lost, the money the two of them earned, excluding the mortgage, might not be enough for the two children to study.

There are too many places to spend money, even the place they are renting now has to pay rent every month.

As for borrowing money, they already owe money to several relatives.

"Don't worry, I'm still here." Looking at his anxious wife, Qin Guodong said quickly, "I can apply for more money from the foreman."

Most of the money on their construction sites is paid at the end of the year, and only part of the "living expenses" is paid every month.

He comforted Zhao Mei, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes at this time.

The pressure of life is sometimes enough to overwhelm people. At this time, Qin Guodong felt as if a mountain was crushed in his heart.

With a heavy heart, Qin Guodong and Zhao Mei returned home.

"Mom and Dad." Hearing the movement outside the door, Qin Yun quickly walked out of the room: "You are off work."

The business of the store was finished at four o'clock, and then Qin Yun returned home. Just 2 minutes after arriving home, his parents came back.

But before he said anything, a middle-aged woman in gray overalls appeared outside the door.

"Mom."

Seeing this woman appear, Qin Yun was taken aback, then shouted.

Qin Yun's father, Qin Guodong, has three brothers, Qin Guodong is the second eldest, and the middle-aged woman in front of him is Feng Lan, the wife of Qin Guodong's younger brother Qin Guobin.

Without those bloody plots, the three brothers of the Qin family have a good relationship, and Uncle Qin Yun and Uncle Qin Yun borrowed some of the money to buy the house.

However, the three families are not considered rich. Qin Yun's uncle Qin Guobin and his mother Feng Lan both work in the factory, and their monthly salary seems to be around 4000 yuan.

The Qin family has almost always been like this. In the past few generations, there has not been a rich person, and their lives are tight.

"Little luck." Looking at Qin Yun, Feng Lan nodded with a smile and said, "The college entrance examination is coming soon. Your grades are good. This time, you will be admitted to a good university."

"I know." Hearing this, Qin Yun nodded quickly.

In his impression, his little mother is very good at talking, which is commonly known as "nagging". When they were in the countryside, Feng Lan and Zhao Mei could talk all day without getting tired.

After a few compliments, Feng Lan looked at Zhao Mei and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll ask about the factory for you tomorrow, and see if anyone else is needed?"

Zhao Mei was extremely anxious earlier, so she called Feng Lan to see if she could help her into the factory to work.

Zhao Mei also did it in the factory before, but it didn't last long.
