"Boss, the workers are all living in the sheds!"

Zhao Qingshan replied truthfully, with some doubts on his face, wondering why Su Yun suddenly mentioned it.

"4.2 Take me there to have a look!"

Su Yun said softly, he just noticed that these workers were also wearing thin clothes.

Zhao Qingshan didn't know what Su Yun was thinking, so he had no choice but to take him there.

Soon the two came to the place where the workers lived. It was a relatively open flat land with a row of very simple shacks.

Just use some wood and thatch to pile up randomly and fix it, it is very simple.

There seems to be wind in many places, and a tent erected randomly in later generations is better than the one in front of us.

Su Yun looked at such a simple environment and felt the cool weather around him. His body trembled slightly and his heart shook. He walked over.

However, when he saw the whole picture of the inside of the shack, his pupils shrank sharply, and his face darkened. The environment inside the shack was far worse than when he saw it from the outside.

When he came in, the cold wind from outside just seeped in, and there was no warmth inside, it felt as cold as entering an ice cellar.

Moreover, there are no beds in the shack. If workers want to sleep, they can only choose to sleep on the ground. Even if there are quilt covers, those quilt covers are not thick enough. Many quilt covers are not even the width of his finger. .

How could it be possible to stay warm in such a bad environment with such a thin quilt?

The more Su Yun looked at him, the more he frowned, and he couldn't bear it.

"Workers live here every day?"

He asked softly, his face extremely dignified.

It has been snowing in Jinling in winter. In such a cold weather, the workers still live in such a simple place, and the quilts are not thick. How can they have a good health?

"Yes, boss, they live here temporarily after work every day!"

Zhao Qingshan didn't notice Su Yun's tone, he didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong with workers living in shacks.

Su Yun fell silent when he heard the words. He looked at the fire that had already been extinguished on the ground, and was a little lost in thought.

Walking out of the work shed, I looked up at the falling snowflakes in the sky, and the white clouds covered the blue sky.

Today's Jinling is far colder than later generations. It snows every winter. The snow that stopped for a while just now has started to fall again.

"Immediately ask some workers to repair the accommodation next to them.

You go to Qiantong to withdraw a thousand cash and buy quilts for the workers in the city, so you can't freeze the workers! "

He felt that the school city would not be able to be built for a while, and these workers would still need to stay here for a long time, such a crude environment would not work.

"But boss, the construction schedule is very tight now, it's not suitable! And it's like this everywhere, and you can pass it if you stand up at night."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingshan was a little embarrassed. He felt that there are still many places in the school city that have not been completed. At this juncture, manpower is taken out to do other things, which will delay things.

"They are all raised by mothers and fathers. If you don't do it, you will pack up and get out!"

Su Yun was angry, these workers are not machines, they are all flesh and blood, living people.

These workers include old and young, and it is not easy to come here to earn some money. Besides, what he wants is for workers to do things for him, not for him to risk his life here.

"Yes, boss, I'll do it right away!"

Seeing that Su Yun was angry, Zhao Qingshan shrank his neck, with a helpless expression on his face, and took the order to do it immediately.

Chapter 57: There is light and there is darkness, my heart is not cold

Su Yun drove back to Jinling City, feeling very uncomfortable along the way.

No wonder everyone talks about the old society. In such a cold day and snowing, that bastard Zhao Qingshan actually let those workers live in such a dilapidated place at night, and even thought it was nothing.

When he remembered that these workers had been living in shacks in such a cold day, and then relying on that fire every day to keep warm, his heart felt like being pulled.

Su Yun then returned to Xinyue Restaurant and went straight to Zhao Lin.

"Where do the employees of Xinyue Restaurant and Shengqing Restaurant live?"

Su Yun looked at Zhao Lin and asked, if it wasn't for this incident, he might not have noticed it.

"Xinyue Restaurant and Shengqing Restaurant, there are a total of eleven restaurants whose employees are almost all locals, and they all live in their own homes."

Zhao Lin said to Su Yun without thinking.

Su Yun thought for a while, and then said: "Immediately make a shift schedule, and all the employees in the restaurant will go to work in rotation within these two days.

Half of them go to work, and the other half, I'm going to make home visits to them! "

He was a little worried. He had been in this era for a few months. Although he had never been to some places, he had heard that Jinling City was not full of rich people, but there were also poor people.

After Zhao Lin took the order, he immediately went down to make arrangements.

After a while, Zhao Lin had already prepared everything, and then handed the shift list to Su Yun. Su Yun glanced at the names on the shift list and some basic information attached to it.

"Gather the eight people in front and let them wait for me in the restaurant."

After a general look, Su Yun pointed to the first eight people on the shift list and said to Zhao Lin.

After speaking, he turned around and left Xinyue Restaurant, and drove to the car rental company.

When I came to the car dealership, a middle-aged man came out and asked Su Yun with a smile: "Hi sir, do you want to rent a car?"

When he saw someone coming by car, he knew that the man in front of him was a rich man.

"Prepare me two cars and two drivers, and I need it now."

Su Yun said, he knows that this kind of car rental company has drivers on standby, as long as you pay, they can serve you at any time.

"Sir, please wait a moment, here will serve you immediately."

Soon the car rental company prepared two cars for Su Yun, and also helped find two drivers according to his request.

After signing the contract, he asked the car rental company to send someone to follow him to Xinyue Restaurant to get the money, then told the two drivers the destination, and then drove back directly to Xinyue Restaurant.

"Boss, they are all waiting in the backyard."

When Zhao Lin saw Su Yun coming back, he immediately walked up and said, as for the people from the car rental company, they have already gone to the front desk to get the money with the contract.

Nodding his head, he strode to the living room in the backyard, and saw eight people sitting in the living room, discussing something one by one.

His eyes swept over them, and he said directly: "The meaning of the shift schedule for these two days is to know about your family situation. You are the first batch of people."

After speaking, he took out the schedule and looked at it, then said: "Go to the Wu family first, and the rest come one by one! Let's go!"

After reading the schedule, Su Yun looked at them and said.

It's only [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and there is still half a day left today. It's no problem for the eight of them to finish their home visits. After all, he rented a car specially for this reason.

When the group came to the restaurant, besides Su Yun's black car, there were two cars parked outside.

"Wu Si, come here!"

Turning around and looking at the eight employees behind him, he shouted.

An employee came out, a young man.He was wearing the work cotton clothes of Xinyue Restaurant.

Whether it is Xinyue Restaurant or Shengqing Restaurant, they have six sets of work clothes a year, and two sets of short-sleeved and breeches work clothes in summer.

There are two sets of long-sleeved trousers work clothes in spring and autumn, and two sets of work cotton clothes in winter.

"The first one to go to your house, you take my car to show the way."

Wu Si nodded and followed Su Yun into the car.

"Wu Si, I heard that you are a native of Jinling? Where is Jinling from?"

Su Yun asked while starting the car.

"Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, but I'm not from Jinling City, but from Lishui County. I came to Jinling alone to find work!"

Wu Si couldn't help lowering his head when he said that, he didn't want to do this either, but many bosses in Jinling are not willing to hire outsiders, preferring to hire locals.

The reason is simple, some people will steal from the boss, and run away after stealing, the boss can't find anyone he wants to find.

The locals are different, your home is in Jinling, where can you go?

So when Wu Si came to apply for the job, he bit the bullet and said that he was a local, but to his surprise, the restaurant did not verify whether he was really a local.

"It's okay, just tell me where to go next."

Su Yun said softly, he didn't mean to blame him, he had stayed in Jinling for a few months, and knew some things here.

Wu Si thought for a while and said after a while: "Just go in the direction of the north of the city, boss!"

When Su Yun heard this, he frowned slightly. The north of the city did not seem to be a good place, because there were slums there. Although it was not comparable to the three major slums in Jinling City, the living environment was not good.

"Don't you have any brothers in your family?"

On the way to drive, Su Yun asked casually.

"There is also a big brother in the family, and the second and third brothers both died of illness!"

Wu Si said softly, his face was a little gloomy at the end.

Su Yun shook his head slightly. Not to mention the underdeveloped medical technology in this era, seeing a doctor is simply not something ordinary people can afford.

In this era, most family members are sick, and if there is no money, there are only two situations.

Get over minor illnesses until your body produces antibodies and recovers on its own.

If you are seriously ill, you can only wait to die. This is the tragedy of this era.

Neither Western medicine nor Chinese medicine is a place where poor people can go to see a doctor.

After a while, he was about to reach the north of the city, but Wu Si still didn't say the specific location.

"Where is your house exactly? Tell me, it's almost to the north of the city."

Su Yun asked, turned his head to look at Wu Si, and at this moment he saw a trace of panic on Wu Si's face.

"I...my home environment is not very good, shopkeeper, why don't you go?"

Wu Si said, a little shy, and seemed a bit reluctant.

"Tell me the position, or your salary will be deducted this month."

Su Yun said lightly, these words made Wu Si panic.

"Shopkeeper, you...don't deduct my salary. My home is on the Qinhuai River in the northwest of the city, not far from the Yangtze River!"

Wu Si can only tell the location of his residence, and the monthly salary of 20 yuan Dayang here is something he cannot give up.

In the entire Jinling City, only Xinyue Restaurant and Shengqing Restaurant would offer such high salaries to waiters and walk-ins.

Those who come to other restaurants, that is, the food passers of later generations, can pay eight or nine yuan a month, which is super good treatment.

Of course, the reason why the protagonist charges such a high price does not violate the rules of the system, that is, these waiters have been trained to provide high-quality services to the guests, otherwise he would not be able to offer them such a high salary.

"Qinhuai River, there are slums there!"

Su Yun knew it was there as soon as he heard it.

There are three major slums in Jinling City, and the two sections of the Qinhuai River rank first among the three major slums.These two sections of the Qinhuai River are slums in Jinling City.

In the impression of many people, the Qinhuai River is a place of luxury and money, but many people do not know that the Qinhuai River in the center of the city is naturally a place of luxury and money, where rich people go to spend.

But what about non-city center areas, or even non-prosperous areas?That is the existence of slums.

Why did the north and south sections of the Qinhuai River become slums?Because of the needs of life, a special way of living was born on the Qinhuai River.

The people who live here do not settle down on the banks of the Qinhuai River in the north and south, but live in a completely different way.

The reason why this slum became famous, and even became one of the three major slums in Jinling City, was because people lived in a special kind of house.

To be more precise, they live on a boat, a kind of boat that is jokingly called a boat.

艒艒船, I believe everyone has seen such words in the articles of some old people.For example, in Mr. Shen's book The Later Half of His Life, boats were mentioned many times.

In the article, Mr. Shen said that he was very pleased with those who fished for themselves on the Huangpu River.

But people don't know that Mr. Shen's gratifying ship in Jinling is a lingering nightmare for ordinary people.

Why is it a nightmare?The reasons are complex, but also simple.

People here live on boats on the Qinhuai River. The reason for this can be described in two words—cheap.

The Qinhuai River is divided into north and south sections outside Jinling City. One section is very close to the Yangtze River and is in the northwest of Jinling City, not far from the Yangtze River.
