Chapter 12: Self-recommendation
"Don't listen to the bullshit. The person I found yesterday didn't do a good job and didn't receive the money." Xiao Qi explained.
After all, it was because of his young age, Gu Yan thought in her heart, Xiao Qi's eyes and tone when he spoke, it was obvious that he was lying.
"Which one is alive?"
Xiao Qi snorted and said impatiently, "Don't ask about it, Lao Li. The truck will be loaded at the coal yard at around ten o'clock. Someone will come to call someone when the truck comes. Just wait. I got up early in the morning, so let me take a break."
This Xiao Qi is really a talent. Everyone actually believes in him. Xiao Qi... Xiao Qi... It's strange. Why is there no such character in the original work of "Life in the Sea"? Could it be her?
forget?
"Hey, the guest house needs two laundry workers, can you come?" A middle-aged man who looked like a cadre stopped at the corner of the street and shouted to Gu Yan and the other two.
Gu Yan was just about to respond, but she was held back by Sister Wang. She then raised her voice and asked, "What are you washing, how do you calculate the money?"
"It's just bed sheets, quilt covers, etc. from the guest house. Wash the whole set for 50 cents."
"Then let's go."
"There are more than 30 sets in total. They don't cost much, so we pay wages per set."
"Sure! Let's go," Sister Wang responded, "Which guest house?"
"Nanjiao Hotel, enter through the back door. You know, I went to see Sister Wu."
"Okay, leader!"
Sister Wang is very happy to be alive, and Gu Yan is also very happy. She was just thinking about going back to sleep if she is no longer alive. Haha, after finishing work today, she is one step closer to being able to move out.
The employer left first on his bicycle. Sister Wang knew the way and led Gu Yan there. As she walked, she explained to Gu Yan, "There were people from guest houses who came to look for people before. They washed themselves from morning to night, and it took more than ten hours to give them five
I still had to ask for 1 yuan several times before I was given the money. Fortunately, it was from the Nanjiao Hotel."
Gu Yan thought to herself that all walks of life really need to be cautious, otherwise they would not know if they would step into a trap.
The Nanjiao Guest House is not far away, and the two of them walked there in more than ten minutes. Sister Wang took Gu Yan in through the back door, and happened to meet the staff inside. She said they were here to wash things, and immediately led them to the washing area.
.
As soon as they entered, they saw a pile of sheets, quilt covers, pillowcases and other things piled on the concrete floor of the yard. It seemed that this was their work today.
"Are you here to wash the sheets?" A middle-aged woman wearing hotel clothes with her hair pulled up came over.
"Yes, are you Sister Wu?" Gu Yan asked proactively.
"I am," Sister Wu looked Gu Yan up and down, then looked at Sister Wang, who frowned and seemed dissatisfied, but didn't say much, "come with me."
Sister Wu told Gu Yan and Sister Wang the main things to clean and how to dry them, and then walked away.
Gu Yan is very experienced in cleaning hotel supplies. She and Sister Wang sort them first, wash the clean ones easily, wash the stained ones simply, and soak the dirty ones with washing powder before cleaning. In this way, they wash
The speed is very fast.
Thirty-six sets of quilts were washed just after noon. However, there are not so many types of cleaning agents in this era. If there are stains on them, you can only use soap and washing powder to scrub them. As a result, there are a few places that have not been cleaned.
Sister Wu came over to check and deducted two yuan from them. Neither Gu Yan nor Sister Wang were too fussy, so just two yuan less. The last person shared eight yuan and was about to leave the Nanjiao Hotel.
Sister Wang saw the toilet in the backyard and said to Gu Yan, "I'm going to use the toilet before I leave. Do you want to go?"
"I'm not going, I'll wait for you." Gu Yan moved down when she saw the shade of a tree next to her.
She never thought that there was someone standing and talking next door. Gu Yan wanted to move away a little, after all, the other party was talking, but when she heard the content of their conversation, Gu Yan couldn't move her feet anymore.
The older man who looked like a leader reprimanded, "It's been a month and I can't even write a textbook for English service training. How did you learn English?"
The person who was scolded did not overcome it, "No, I haven't seen what the textbook looks like. How do I know how to write it? What foreign languages do we good Chinese people speak? Besides, there are a few people in our hostel who can speak English.
Even if I write it down, they won’t be able to learn it.”
"Listen, could this be what a section chief of yours said? This is called being in line with international standards. Do you understand? I'll give you another week. If you can't write it down, then don't become a section chief!"
After the speaker finished speaking, he left. The remaining section chief walked around in circles several times depressedly before leaving. When he turned around and saw Gu Yan looking at him, he glared at her angrily, "What are you looking at, fat girl?"
!”
"Section Chief..."
"Who are you? How do you know that I am the section chief?"
Gu Yan... "I heard that person calling you section chief just now. I didn't mean to listen to what you said just now. I just heard the content that I was more interested in. When would you like me to do your room
,sir?”
The section chief suddenly looked at Gu Yan with wide eyes and disbelief, "When can someone come to clean the room?"
"right."
"How could you possibly speak English?" the section chief asked Gu Yan in disbelief. He looked at Gu Yan carefully. This woman was as fat as a renter and was dressed in such a tacky way. It looked like she was from the countryside. How could she?
Maybe English?
"I'm not very proficient, but I happen to know etiquette English," Gu Yan got straight to the point. "If you need it, I can help you write a training manual with Chinese homophonics, so that they can learn it as long as they memorize it. But
You need to pay me."
Gu Yan did not beat around the bush. Whether this kind of thing would work would depend on luck. If it worked, she would have enough money to move out.
"How much?"
Gu Yan stretched out her palm.
"five hundred!"
Gu Yan's heart is broken and she needs less!
"Fifty." Gu Yan sighed, "If you want to give me more, you can."
"You can't give me fifty if you ask for fifty. Who knows what it will look like in writing."
"Well, you can make a request. How much is fifty yuan per sentence?"
"At least five hundred sentences."
Gu Yan smiled, "Five hundred sentences won't be a problem."
