When the workers received the notice that the factory cafeteria was open for trial operation, they didn't expect much.
They are different from the people in the project department. They are the ones who work in offices and earn high salaries, while they are just hard laborers. Are they worthy of eating with them? In my impression, the workers in the factory eat while squatting on bricks.
What made them most uneasy was that, wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket, muddy trousers, and only a few dimes in their trouser pockets, could they have a full meal in the cafeteria?
But the senior leaders said that eating in the cafeteria is voluntary, and they suggested that they all come and take a look on the first day, otherwise they would have to come.
When Li Shengli brought his brothers over, he sighed in his heart: "I don't know if Yun Shumei is here to sell food today. If we don't go out, who will she sell food to later?"
Qiang was only prepared to spend ten cents: "I'll just buy a steamed bun, and then go out and ask her to buy a vegetarian dish to eat."
Most of the workers who were used to eating Xie Yunshu's food during this period had this mentality: if they came to eat today for the big boss, they would have to go out to eat tomorrow. The girl's food was delicious and cheap, and she also gave them pickles and peppers. They would rather run a few more steps than enter the project department restaurant.
Just after entering the first floor door, Li Shengli rubbed his eyes, and saw Xie Yunshu wearing a mask, with a pair of bright and black big eyes smiling at him: "Brother Li, this way!"
"Yun Shumei?!" Li Shengli's eyes widened, he took two quick steps over, and then laughed heartily: "Why is it you?!"
Xie Yunshu looked at the familiar faces behind him, feeling a kind of intimacy, she blinked her eyes: "Brother, come and take care of my business in the future! It's still the same price, the same taste, I guarantee you'll have enough to eat!"
Who's going to eat out now?
The workers ate much faster than the project department staff, and not everyone was willing to sit down to eat. Many of them took their meals directly back to their work. There was no other way. After squatting outside to eat for a long time, I always felt uncomfortable sitting next to the cadres.
Li Shengli and Qiang sat down and discussed the new project that was about to start while eating.
"This water pipe installation job is definitely profitable. Lao Li has come to me twice. It's hard to find workers just now, so he wants us to do it." Li Shengli is a small foreman. These people under him were brought up by him. After working in Haicheng Engineering for so long, he has also built up some connections of his own.
Now there is no shortage of work, the problem is that no one can understand the drawings.
Qiang had a vegetarian dish as usual, but Xie Yunshu added some broth to it, which tasted pretty good. He took a bite of the steamed bun and leaned over: "We can take on this job. We can't stay idle all this time. How about we go to the project department and ask an architect?"
Li Shengli shook his head helplessly: "Why would they bother to care about us? Besides, it's not enough to just look at the blueprint. You have to understand it when you work. You can't ask every day, right?"
When Lao Li came to him, he was so happy.
The Haicheng government has money, and the big boss in the south also has money. This is the biggest project he has received so far. If he can do such a job, he can earn at least five figures! Following these brothers, he doesn't have to worry about not making money.
He had thought about finding someone who understood blueprints to serve as his advisor, but where could he find such a person? People who could understand blueprints all wore white safety helmets at work, so they were not the ones he could talk to.
There were not many people eating at this time. Xie Yunshu prepared three meals in advance and let Li Fenlan and Aunt Zhao eat first, while he was attracted by the drawings that Li Shengli had placed on the table.
"Brother Li, is this the design drawing of the new factory?" She has been learning this knowledge by herself and has read a lot of books during this period. She soon understood: "There are more than 20 buildings in total, and there are so many public facilities, covering more than 70 acres. No wonder it is said to be at least 15,000 square meters!"
Li Shengli was a little surprised: "Sister Yunshu, can you understand this?"
Xie Yunshu didn't dare to be arrogant: "It's just that I can understand this kind of basic drawings. I won't understand anything more advanced."
She knew that there were many types of architectural drawings, such as plan views, cross-section views, and three-dimensional views. The one in front of Lee Seung-ri was a water supply and drainage construction drawing. It was actually not that complicated, it just looked like it had a lot of lines.
Li Shengli's job is to lay water pipes in advance. The position and direction of the water pipes cannot be wrong, otherwise it will be troublesome to redo the work later after the building is built. As for how to build the building, he doesn't care.
Qiang immediately said: "Brother Li, let's ask Yunshu for help!"
This is no joke. Li Shengli pursed his lips and said, "Ms. Yunshu, take another look at these drawings. Can you understand the location and direction of the pipelines?"
She could indeed understand it, but Xie Yunshu was confident but not arrogant, and she was not a professional, so she did not dare to guarantee whether she was right or wrong.
"Brother Li, I think you should find a professional to look at it." She shook her head, her eyes reluctantly moving back from the drawings: "Construction is not a trivial matter, there is no room for mistakes, and I only know a little bit."
Li Shengli was a little disappointed, but then he thought that Yun Shumei was originally a clerk, and being able to understand the blueprints was much better than them, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll find someone else to look at it."
As they were talking, there were already few people in the cafeteria. Li Shengli rolled up the blueprint and hurriedly prepared to go to the workshop: "Sister Yun Shu, let's go!"
Xie Yunshu felt a little regretful. She hadn't seen enough of the drawings yet. It would be great if she had the chance to copy one...
At this time, Li Fenlan's voice rang out: "Xiaobai, why did you come down to eat? There is nothing to eat here..."
Maybe it was because the temperature rose a bit at noon, Shen Subai changed his black cotton coat into a black coat, and he stood straighter, looking even more upright. For some reason, Xie Yunshu felt that Captain Shen was a little different.
I can't really put it into words, but I think I'm just a little more energetic. After all, clothes are heavy in winter, and now I'm wearing a long black coat, which really makes me feel brighter. My calm and serious look has become more flamboyant.
Shen Subai put his hands in his coat pocket and said to Li Fenlan in a warm manner: "Aunt Li, I have accumulated a lot of work in the past two days because of the canteen trial operation. I was so busy at noon that I forgot the time. It doesn't matter. I will just eat some steamed buns later."
Today was the first day Xie Yunshu came to work to sell food inside the factory. He was unsure of the number of people who would eat, so he didn’t cook much. Now not only were the vegetables sold out, but even the steamed buns were gone…
Xie Yunshu looked at the meal he had reserved for himself, feeling guilty: "Captain Shen, do you mind eating my portion?"
