Chapter 011
Hu Mingqi asked: "What do you think?"
Learn the masonry work from him? Not to mention what use it would be for a girl like her to learn this, why did she think she could teach? Before that, the boy's family asked several people for help and even gave him two pieces of bacon before she agreed to teach.
Yuan Tang looked at him quietly: "I heard that bricklayers make two dollars a day."
Hu Ming was so angry that he laughed: "Just for this extra 40 cents?"
Yuan Tang nodded: "Yes."
There are only fifty days left until the start of school, but the construction period of the hospital is only about one month.
In thirty days, if she was paid 1.6 yuan a day, she would only have 48 yuan. After paying for tuition and textbooks, she had almost nothing left.
But if she earns two dollars a day, she will have sixty dollars, and she will have ten dollars left, which can at least get her through the first month of school.
Hu Ming lit a cigarette, very puzzled: "Even if you want to learn, I can't teach you. I heard from Yan Zi that you said you would go to school when the semester starts, right? Whether you can learn or not is another matter. If I teach you and you go to school, what's the point?"
Yuan Tang tilted his head and thought for a while: "I have learned it... You don't have to worry about starving yourself to death by teaching your apprentice."
Hu Ming: ???
Yuan Tang lowered his voice: "I saw it all. You didn't want to teach that person at all. You just scolded him on purpose."
Hu Ming scratched his nose. He was actually a little embarrassed despite being extremely thick-skinned. "So obvious?"
Yuan Tang nodded. How could it not be obvious?
It is difficult to level the facade by scraping it, and there is no laser alignment at that time. As a master, he does not keep an eye on it, but lets the other party play freely. Isn't he just waiting for the other party to mess up and then he comes out to "turn the tide"?
Hu Ming laughed, he didn't feel guilty at all.
He learned bricklaying from a master craftsman. At that time, he served his master for a whole year. In the first three months, the master did not teach him well, but later he kept following him. The master no longer hid his knowledge and he even learned a little bit of electrical work.
But the old saying is true: a well-trained apprentice will starve his master to death. After he learned the skills, the small contractor who had asked his master to do the work before came to him privately and offered a much higher price.
Hu Ming still had a conscience and took the master craftsman with him to work.
But from being someone else's apprentice to now taking on his own apprentices, Hu Ming finally understood why masters would always train their apprentices, because they wanted to see if they had good character. If an apprentice had bad character, the first thing they would do after learning was to kill their master.
He hadn't even started grinding when the guy quit.
Hu Ming was happy and at ease, so it was just right that he didn't teach. If the contractor hadn't hinted several times that he wanted him to teach others, but he didn't want to, he would have found this kid to be his apprentice. According to his own opinion, he was unwilling to teach others.
