The life of Lao Liu since 1944

Chapter 112 Inspection of the Construction Site

If it weren't for the trouble caused by Wu Youren, Hou Jie's life would be as comfortable as a poem and a painting now.

The word to describe it is "Bashi"

Ever since he achieved a financial leap with the help of the time traveler's plug-in, his life has undergone earth-shaking changes.

As the old saying goes, "When you become successful, you only meet good people."

Hou Jie's situation is the best portrayal. His body is like a magnet, attracting many people who are eager for a better life and need cooperation.

They voluntarily surrounded him, willing to help him solve his problems, whether it was by offering valuable advice, helping to solve life's problems, or selflessly providing various resource support.

The purpose is simple, many people just want to follow you to make money.

Now, whenever Hou Jie reveals his small idea of ​​carrying out a certain activity, many friends, partners and even strangers will immediately volunteer and rush to offer various solutions and suggestions.

They may want a better life, or they may see the huge potential and business opportunities behind Hou Jie. In short, these continuous supports are like a clear spring, nourishing the soil of Hou Jie's life, allowing him to move forward courageously on the road of career without any worries.

As the saying goes, "A poor person in a busy city has no one to care about him; a rich person in a remote mountain area has distant relatives." This saying is vividly reflected in Hou Jie's life.

After searching for Wu Youren in vain, Hou Jie decided to inspect the construction site one day.

Since the construction of this site officially started, Hou Jie, as the owner, has not yet personally set foot on this busy construction site.

Seeing his employees all in high spirits and full of energy, he knew that if he stayed out of it, it would not only seem inhumane, but also, to some extent, reflect his irresponsible attitude as a manager.

"Man! Don't be too stupid, show your face!"

Although the construction site affairs are complicated and trivial, Hou Jie knows in his heart that even superficial inspections and concerns are an invisible encouragement and respect for the hard-working workers.

Even though the construction site was not a place for him to enjoy a luxurious life, with dust all over the sky and harsh environment, he still decided to come to the construction site in person to experience the atmosphere of the site.

As expected, as soon as I arrived at the construction site, what caught my eye was crowds of people coming and going, and all kinds of heavy physical work were being carried out in a tense and orderly manner.

"Hey! Try harder!"

"Hey! Just watch!"

"Bang bang!"

The sounds of hammers hitting and people shouting intertwined to form an exciting labor symphony. In this bustling construction scene, most of the workers and the people helping were wearing coarse linen clothes, their faces were covered with sweat and dust, but they could not hide their enthusiasm for work and expectations for the future.

Despite the tough working environment, Hou Jie knows that every busy figure is a symbol of hard work for life.

However, after a round of inspection, he also noticed some problems that could not be ignored.

"Many children are playing and running around the construction site. If any casualties occur, it would be a serious matter."

There were some children working there, who looked like little beggars, and there were also quite a few women helping out.

Hou Jie couldn't help but frown, feeling unhappy.

"He can't control other places. Since this is on his territory, he can't let this happen."

Upon seeing this, Master Lei and Master Niu immediately came forward and reported their work progress with concern on their faces.

"Young Master, you are here!" they said after bowing respectfully.

Hou Jie nodded, stood in the middle of the construction site, and looked at the children playing on the side. His brows were furrowed and his face was full of worry.

He asked the two people, "Why are there so many children on the construction site? They must be strictly supervised in the future and absolutely not allowed to enter the construction site at will. If something happens, no one can take the responsibility." His words were full of determination and responsibility.

Upon hearing this, the two nodded and said, "Okay, Young Master, we will definitely pay attention to safety and not let the children enter the construction site casually."

Among them, Master Lei hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "It's just that many of these children are from special families, so I have no choice but to bring them with me."

After hearing this, Hou Jie couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He looked up and saw the children's clothes and faces.

Hou Jie's heart softened. He knew that the family situations of these children might be different. Some might be orphans, and some might be children from poor families. He decided to take this opportunity to open a school to provide education for these children.

"After our employees move in, some of their children will definitely go to school." Hou Jie murmured to himself.

He turned to the two workers and said, "Let's build a school on our own vacant land and settle these children. And find a teacher to teach them to read."

"The working hours here are not short. Only by solving the worries of workers or ordinary people can we work better. If parents come to work, let some women take care of the children and provide lunch. When work is over, they can go home with their parents."

The two looked at each other in amazement. They had never seen such a generous young master who not only cared about the lives of the workers, but also took into account the children of the common people. Their hearts were filled with admiration and gratitude.

However, they also worry that this will cause more trouble and expenses.

The two thought to themselves, "The young master is really generous! He can do whatever he wants. It's really enviable."

"But, wouldn't it be easy to suffer a loss if I did this?"

I have to be more careful and keep a close eye on the young master. There are so few good people like the young master. If I let him suffer, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.

Hou Jie knew what the two were thinking. Without waiting for them to speak, he smiled and said, "Don't worry about my loss. This is just a small amount of money to me. It's nothing."

They both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and were very grateful for the young master's understanding.

Hou Jie continued to ask: "How do you solve the problem of eating? The work on the construction site is very hard, so you must eat well."

Niu Ye continued, "When I was working before, some employers provided meals, while others did not. In the past two years, the economy has been bad, so basically no one provided meals. It was good to have something to eat. At noon, everyone here just eats a bite of steamed buns and pickles that they bring with them. Hot water is provided on the construction site, so everyone can solve the problem themselves."

Hou Jie felt mixed emotions after hearing this. He knew very well that in this day and age, many large-scale engineering projects might have many management omissions due to lack of experience and limited technical conditions.

However, he did not want to pursue responsibility, but wanted to improve these conditions. "Let's do this!"

Hou Jie decisively announced, "Starting tomorrow, lunch will be provided! Not only must it be hearty, but it must also include vegetables and meat soup. If there are workers in need or people doing odd jobs, or if there are elderly, weak, sick, or disabled people in their families who have difficulties in life, you can let some children and the elderly come to eat or take some extra portions home."

The two felt warm in their hearts when they heard Hou Jie's decision. They were deeply moved by Hou Jie's kindness and generosity. They knew that working with such a person would definitely be a relief and they would not have any worries.

"Young Master, you are so kind. But it will cost a lot." Mr. Niu sighed.

Hou Jie didn't care when he heard this and continued, "Assign all the women on the construction site to easy jobs. Let them do logistics for you."

He emphasized: "We can't let them do heavy physical work. Aren't we providing lunch at noon? Let them cook and clean. We don't need these things."
