Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 144 A Better Life

The sea situation did not improve, and Chen Ruobai could only helplessly accept the reality of another day of shutdown.This is the case for absorbing money. Three days of fishing and two days of drying the net, as long as the sea conditions do not allow, then there is no way to start work.

This is not something to overcome or not to overcome at all. If you forcefully start working, it may be a shipwreck and death.Storms on the surface can be fatal, and undercurrents can sweep divers away.

Safety first, this has always been the basis for Chen Ruobai to start work, this is not a matter of worrying about insurance or compensation.It's that he doesn't want to do something that would embarrass his conscience. He is not some unscrupulous boss, and he still has some bottom lines.

Bandaged Montgomery came and said straight to the point, "Where's the check?"

Chen Ruobai looked at Montgomery with disgust, "Shouldn't you introduce someone first?"

"You already know who they are, I don't need an introduction." Montgomery urged, "Hurry up and give me the wages and bonuses of real men, they need to rent a stable house quickly."

Chen Ruobai smiled and said to Dick's wife Martha, "Have you seen the house?"

"We are in the same community as Abby, we are all there." Martha was very happy, and said to Chen Ruobai, "I didn't expect to move so soon. I didn't support him when he received a call to pan for gold last year. I saw many The gold diggers went bankrupt, and the fishermen made a lot of money."

Montgomery joked, "Robert was also a fisherman before, and he was very poor when he arrived in Alaska."

Chen Ruobai didn't care about those things either, and just said with a smile, "Dick's job is very good, you can believe that he can make a lot of money in the mine, and can give you a higher quality of life."

Montgomery yelled, "Robert, we only need to see the check now. As you can see, Joshua and Peggy are about to lose their patience."

Joshua and Peggy, this is Dick's son and daughter, they are now full of curiosity about Chen Ruobai's residence.Perhaps for them, things like villas are a bit new, and this is also a big house that they have never been in close contact with.

Chen Ruobai didn't delay any longer, a few pleasantries were enough, what Dick's wife needed now was to get a check and prepare to settle the money for renting the house.Moving house is not a small thing, there are many things to do.

Looking at Montgomery, Chen Ruobai said worriedly, "You should have continued to receive treatment."

"I'm sure there is no problem, and the doctor allowed me to leave the hospital." Montgomery couldn't help complaining, "I don't like being in the hospital, it will drive me crazy. Without a young nurse in good shape, I don't want to be in the hospital for a minute There, I don’t want to smell the disinfectant.”

Things like being hospitalized are indeed torture, so Montgomery was discharged immediately after getting the report that allowed him to leave the hospital.

As for helping Dick move, it seemed natural to Montgomery.Who made Dick his cousin? Since Dick has no time in the mine now, he can come to help.

Speaking of it, Montgomery is still very proud. He introduced a good job to his cousin and made some money.Even if I can't afford to buy a house directly now, but I moved from the small town to Anchorage, which is also an improvement.

This is no small matter. Without his introduction, Dick might still be at sea now.

No one knows Dick's income level better than Chen Ruobai.Now moving to Anchorage is definitely no problem. As far as the current situation is concerned, Dick's income level this year must exceed the median of Alaska, and it must be slightly better than the middle class.

Seeing Montgomery and the others leave, Chen Ruobai couldn't help laughing, "Don't make it to the end, my employees are all in the same community, it would be interesting if that were the case."

Obviously, Chen Ruobai didn't have so many employees coming directly to a 'miner's home', but if all his employees moved to middle-class communities, there shouldn't be too much of a problem.

The salary is good, you can make money by following Chen Ruobai, this is the most important point, everyone's life can be better.

Thinking of these things, Chen Ruobai still had a sense of accomplishment.He is eating meat, and the employees can also drink soup. Everyone is working hard to make life better and better. This is indeed a good thing, and it deserves a little pride for him.

But now all this is just the beginning, and everyone needs to continue to work hard in order to live a better life.

Now that he knew that Dick's family was moving, Chen Ruobai naturally couldn't pretend he didn't know anything.Maybe Dick doesn't have time to hold a moving party immediately, but Chen Ruobai can still join in the fun a little bit.

After calling Abigail, Chen Ruobai also knew what he should do.Buying a bottle of red wine that wasn't either good or bad was considered a moving gift he had prepared.

Setting off with Da Zhuang, Chen Ruobai picked up Abigail and went straight to Dick's house.

Six-year-old Joshua was very happy. Seeing Chen Ruobai's boldness this time, "You are Robert, the best gold digger!"

"You should have said that when you were at my house." Chen Ruobai shook hands with Joshua solemnly, and said, "Young gentleman, I should have prepared a piece of chocolate for you."

After saying this, Chen Ruobai said to Peggy, "I prepared a Barbie doll for you, I hope you like it."

Martha was very happy. After Chen Ruobai entered the house, she said, "The rent here is very expensive. We need to pay [-] dollars a month for rent, and water, electricity and gas cost us [-] dollars. This is the lowest cost of living. There are too many."

Abigail smiled and said, "If you were in a small town, you could rent a small house for three hundred dollars, and you could rent a relatively poor apartment in Anchorage. But it's different here. You can let Children can enjoy the sun on the grass and can ride bicycles in the community.”

Hearing what Abigail said, Martha couldn't help laughing. Although the cost of living has increased, the quality of life has also improved.

This community is very good now, allowing children to enjoy a safer and more comfortable environment.

It's the same everywhere, you can enjoy better living conditions with more money, and your life can become better and more quality.

"It looks pretty good, there are a lot of people here." Chen Ruobai looked around and said with a smile, "It seems that even if Dick is not here, there will be a moving party."

Abigail immediately said proudly, "Of course, the residents in this community are very friendly, and we are the most reliable neighbors. Knowing that there are new neighbors coming, we are all willing to participate in the party."

This is also a characteristic of the so-called middle class, and some people here seem to be more enthusiastic.

And Abigail is proud of this community, which is understandable, because her family is here now, and she and Devi have settled here.So for this community, she is also full of pride.

Chen Ruobai just smiled, a community with a lot of people seems to be good, it can make the social circle wider.It's just that he still thinks it's not bad for him to be like this now. Although living alone in a big house is a bit empty, he can still be happy and carefree this way.

What's more, the place where he lives now is not completely isolated, there is also a villa next to it, not far away, but Chen Ruobai is too lazy to move around.

"That guy's rent is more than five thousand a month, not including various management fees." Abigail said sourly, "So he became the boss, and we are working for him."

"My job is not easy." Chen Ruobai said with a smile while holding onto Da Zhuang to prevent him from quarreling with Joshua, "I'm going to Fairbanks again tomorrow. I used to tease secretaries and assistants. But now it’s different, I find I’m too busy.”

Martha joked, "That's because you don't have a secretary now, but this is also a good thing, and it saves you from trouble."

Abigail also seemed to be thinking about Chen Ruobai, "I think so too, if you have a young female secretary, you will soon get a lawsuit. Considering the current social environment, you will be accused by many There will be protesters gathering in front of your residence. At that time, we will also draw a clear line with you.”

Chen Ruobai thought about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case.

The general environment is different now. If you stare at some women more, there may be some risks.The people in the gym are the most emotional, staring at the girls who are exercising, it is easy to be bullied by the Internet.

If someone feels harassed by sending some text messages in the company, even if it is not particularly explicit, then this lawsuit will be difficult to fight.

"Robert is very likely to get such a lawsuit." Montgomery said gloatingly, "This guy is the most vulgar, but I am also very curious now, why there are so many young and beautiful girls who want to be with their rich Asshole date?"

Abigail rolled her eyes and said directly, "As you said, they are rich bastards. Even if they are bastards, they are more popular than those romantic poor ghosts."

At this moment, Chen Ruobai suddenly said, "I actually want a loyal and romantic love, but my love has already died before."

Abigail didn't think so, and Montgomery booed directly. Naturally, they couldn't understand what kind of virtue Chen Ruobai was.You are not honest when you have no money, but now that you have money, you can be even more of a jerk.

They don't feel that Chen Ruobai is yearning for that kind of love.The relationship of losing the kidney may be the type he needs.

Feeling that he was misunderstood, Chen Ruobai shook his head helplessly. He looked so good that he was really easy to be misunderstood.
