Make a living

Chapter 19

When the door was knocked, Qi Yu was pouring boiling water from the kettle on his hair.

Of course, the boiling water has cooled down at this moment, and the temperature is just acceptable for the scalp.It's just that it was used to boil water for instant noodles in the past, and its target of use today has suddenly been upgraded to a higher level, playing a more important role in Qi Yu's slightly long hair.

It was already dark outside, but Qi Yu didn't have the appetite to eat.Fortunately, the kettle he bought had a relatively large capacity, and it washed away the stickiness of the shampoo on his hair, making his irritable mood a little warmer.

dong dong dong-

"Hello, on-site maintenance."

The high-end anti-theft door blocked the sound from outside to only a shallow layer, but it sounded like the sound of nature to Qi Yu's ears.

He casually collected the remaining water from his hair into the sink, continued to wipe his hair with the dry towel on his shoulder, and opened the door with his hand.

Standing outside the door was a maintenance worker in a work hat and a navy blue jumpsuit.At this moment, he was bending over and carefully putting on the shoe covers.

Qi Yusao saw that the company name printed on the clothes was the one he contacted.

"Please come in."

There was an unpleasant smell in the air, and Qi Yu pushed the door further open.He glanced at the somewhat dirty and wet overalls of the workers, and leaned sideways against the cabinet to make room for others to come in.

"Oh, thank you."

The young worker quickly thanked him, his voice sounded familiar.He picked up the tool bag that was on the ground, stepped carefully into the clean and bright room in front of him, and asked, "I heard from the customer service that you found that the faucet was not running when you took a shower?"

This is Zheng Haichuan's fourth job today.

He went to the housekeeping company to apply for a job yesterday morning. He said it was a company, that is, a studio supported by a group of maintenance workers, porters and cleaners.The average age of each employee is 40+, and many employees are still affiliated here. They usually take on other jobs at the same time, and when there are orders, they are directly dispatched online.

Maybe because of the neighbor Lao Yang's relationship, the manager of the store didn't make things difficult for him.In the afternoon, let the old master take him to go out with him for a single job. When he came back, he told Zheng Haichuan that he had passed, and he went straight to work after picking up the overalls.

Some people will say that regular companies have a trial period of several months, and this kind of direct employment sounds unreliable at all.But in fact, for the business of home improvement or maintenance, it is not so particular.The most important thing for customers who come to repair things is whether their own problems can be solved effectively, regardless of your background and education.If you have the technology, you can make a living. If you can't solve the problem, then get out. It's a very simple truth.

In this way, Zheng Haichuan was assigned to the hydroelectric engineering area.

On the first day, he signed a simple labor contract and familiarized himself with the operation of the order-taking software and the necessary tools and equipment.Today, he still has time to follow the master's ass to familiarize himself with technology in the morning, but in the afternoon the customer service sent him a separate order directly.

No way, in their industry, there is a lot of business on weekends.

To say that Zheng Haichuan is also simple and bold, and he is not afraid of making mistakes by himself, so he will be fooled.

The first two orders were relatively simple, one was that the water heater was not ignited, and the other was that the faucet was leaking.Zheng Haichuan used to deal with such trivial matters in his hometown, and it was easy to handle.

It's just that the third order is a little troublesome - a young girl's toilet has a clogged drain.

The little girl looks fair and clean, but the room is so messy that even a big man like Zheng Haichuan can't see it.Zheng Haichuan could only walk straight to the bathroom without squinting, only to be surprised to find that the water was almost flooding the threshold.

"I can't help it. I have to wash my hair and put on makeup to go out."

The little girl's answer was a matter of course.If there were no various paper towels and sanitary products floating in the water, Zheng Haichuan would be willing to praise her for her exquisite appearance.

Zheng Haichuan couldn't help it either.If you want to earn money after accepting a job, you have to keep doing it no matter what?So he could only sigh, put on his shoe covers, borrowed a pair of disposable chopsticks from the little girl, and cleaned the bathroom for her first.

Temporarily flowing the treated sewage back to another drain, Zheng Haichuan took another half an hour to pull out a few handfuls of black-red hair from the blocked sewer with a hand-cranked steel wire.

Good guy.

If it weren't for Da Chuan not being afraid of ghosts, he would be hugging Xiao He Miao'er to sleep tonight!

These strands are even scarier than that Sadako!

It is precisely because of this order that Zheng Haichuan is a little dirty now.After all, in addition to hair, there are many other dirty things mixed in the sewer.

Before Zheng Haichuan came to the door, he had simply taken care of the public pool downstairs, but the effect was just that.Because he has been in this smell all the time, he doesn't feel much anymore, it's just that Qi Yu, who has been in the clean air all the time, can't stand the smell.

Especially when Zheng Haichuan took off the work hat on his head, revealing the face that Qi Yu could recognize even when he was asleep!

"...Why are you here?"

Qi Yu couldn't hold back, and covered his nose with a wet towel, feeling that he might be dazzled by the stench.

what is this?

A new type of anesthetic?

Can cause dizziness and hallucinations after inhalation?

"Eh, eh? Doctor Li?!"

It was also at this moment that Zheng Haichuan found out who the owner of the house was.

Oops, is this a coincidence? !acquaintance!It's too fateful!Zheng Haichuan grinned with joy, recovering from the depression of the last order, showing his big white teeth.

"Doctor Li, so you live here?!"

Zheng Haichuan looked around the living room happily as if he had returned to his own home, and praised sincerely, "This house is really nice! It suits you!"

Qi Yu didn't reply, he was still digesting the fact that this person in front of him always appeared around him lingeringly.

Especially today when everything is not going well, seeing Zheng Haichuan doing dirty work and still being silly and happy, a kind of indescribable irritability came to my heart.

"Did you just come out of the cesspit?"

He couldn't help but brought a knife between the lines.

Zheng Haichuan turned his head when he heard the words, and immediately noticed the slightly disgusted eyes under the man's slightly frowned brows.

"Haha, I'm sorry, it's a little smokey."

He didn't mind Qi Yu's words, he raised his arm and sniffed it confidently in a foolish way, "It stinks."

Zheng Haichuan rubbed his nose, and took a few steps away from Qi Yu with a sense of humor, "I got some dirt on my clothes from the sewer before, I'm sorry, Dr. Lu. How about...shall I take off my coat first?"

According to the company's regulations, maintenance workers like Zheng Haichuan and others who take orders must wear the company's clothing and equipment at the customer's home.One is to ensure that there are no service disputes, and the second is to advertise to show professionalism.

But this is for strangers.

In Zheng Haichuan's eyes, Qi Yu, who had met him several times, was obviously not an ordinary customer.

This is the doctor he respects from the bottom of his heart, and the one who saved the lives of his fellow workers!Can it be compared with ordinary people? !

Zheng Haichuan had already made a plan in his heart. For today's order, no matter what the doctor wants to repair, he will not charge money!

Oh, he seems to be called the wrong doctor's name again.Should it be called again?

Zheng Haichuan opened his mouth, intending to change his words, but at this moment Qi Yu walked towards the bathroom impatiently, leaving only his back and a sentence of "whatever".

Zheng Haichuan's eyes followed Qi Yu's tall and broad back as he walked forward, forgetting to change his words in a blink of an eye.

He scratched his head and sighed in his heart: so this doctor who sees patients in the hospital every day can still train in such a good figure?In addition to being a little whiter than him, the muscles on the arms on the back also look a lot!

Unexpectedly, Dr. Li turned out to be the kind that those little girls said... that kind of man called, oh, a man who looks thin when dressed, and has flesh when he takes off his clothes!

It must be too much exercise to run up and down every day for surgery!

Well, the doctor really worked hard!

Qi Yu walked ahead so fast, one reason was to quickly shut up Zheng Haichuan and get down to business, and the other was to make a temporary change of clothes.

He didn't expect that someone he knew would come, and he was only wearing a bath towel, which made him a little uncomfortable now.

Humans are strange creatures.When facing complete strangers, many emotions and ego can be released calmly, but if dealing with people you know, you will subconsciously restrain some inner truth.

Especially when facing someone who is completely different from yourself.

It's just that Zheng Haichuan has already seen his appearance.

Zheng Haichuan saw that Qi Yu was so casual at home, so he naturally thought very carefreely—they are both men, Dr. Lu must not mind, so he will take it off himself!

After running for a day, the overalls are indeed not clean, so don't dirty Dr. Li's house in a short while!

Therefore, when Qi Yu went to the compartment to put on his underwear first, Zheng Haichuan also zipped the zipper of his overalls from head to toe very smoothly in the living room.

All that was left was the white vest and the big pants.
