The repair and maintenance of the roof is a top priority, and a whole morning is spent on it, from seven o'clock to twelve o'clock.
Weir came down with his men to start work. After Qin Shiou came down, he walked over and said with a smile: "Hey, Mr. Monopoly, why did you come to work in person? Are you here to experience the suffering of the people?"
Qin Shiou punched him and said, "Don't be so weird, man, you know I'm a little expert at work."
Weir said: "Actually, you don't have to do any work. I'll just find a few guys to help you with it. I'm an expert in this area - of course, it's free. Who makes us good guys?"
Qin Shiou shook his head regretfully and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Now that the boys and I are working together, it doesn't matter to me. The boys won't agree."
Weir turned his head and looked at the children who were holding white mud in their hands and wiping each other with it. His face was full of questions: "Are you kidding me? Are these guys working?"
Wes and Shaq were wrestling with each other, and their masks were nowhere to be found. Their faces and hair were covered with white mud and dust. Gordon and Clarkenson were shouting "come on"; Shirley was there pinching the pony with white mud. , Michelle went to the cold drink shack to make drinks, and only Powell worked conscientiously there.
Qin Shiou went up and held up his ears to separate the two of them. Weiss stretched out his middle finger. Little Shaq screamed and tried to pounce on him again. He had to take out his killer weapon: "Whoever is making trouble will deduct fifty yuan!"
A group of children immediately became honest and only made seventy-five yuan in one morning.
Lunch is very simple. Qin¡¯s father and Qin¡¯s mother have prepared a portion of pork ribs, rice and fried fish, which is enough. Everyone can eat as much as they like. The main meal is in the evening.
This is a Canadian habit. They don¡¯t pay attention to lunch, eat a little casually, and then wait until the evening for a big meal.
Weir followed it up by eating two large bowls of pork rib rice. He ate the pork ribs and praised, "Qin, I find everything here is delicious. This lamb chop tastes great, and it's stewed. I think it's It tastes better when grilled.¡±
Qin Shiou smiled and said: "The main reason is that it doesn't cost anything to eat here. If you spend money, you won't feel so beautiful."
These muttons do taste good, because the fishermen helped repair the house today, and the Georges also came. Qin Shiou wanted to have a big dinner in the evening, so he killed a sheep.
This sheep¡¯s body also contains Poseidon energy, the meat quality has been greatly improved, and the taste is extraordinary.
In the afternoon, the boiler, heating pipes and central air conditioner need to be repaired. These all require annual maintenance. In the past, Qin Shiou paid for people to do it. The total cost was about 500 Canadian dollars. Today, he can do it himself.
The boiler in the villa is dual-purpose, and can burn natural gas or oil. Since the current price of natural gas is much lower than the price of oil, the villa burns natural gas.
A boiler is an indispensable electrical appliance in Canadian homes. Its function is to provide heating, which is equivalent to independent heating. In this regard, its capabilities are much more powerful than air conditioners, and it is also more affordable than air conditioners. Canadian winters are too cold and air conditioning alone cannot provide heating. Air conditioners, boilers and fireplaces are needed together.
This boiler is also left over from the past. It is an old-fashioned vertical boiler. Nowadays, the most commonly used is a gas wall-mounted boiler. Water is heated through the boiler, and then the water pump is pressurized to form a hot water circulation to complete the heating process.
When the temperature rises in spring, the boiler is no longer needed. As long as the air conditioner is used, Shaq opened the boiler and checked it. He shook his head and said: "It won't work anymore. Let's replace it, boss. The water pressure pump is rotten and may burst if it is used again." "
After Qin Shiou went over to take a look, he found that the boiler was indeed aging badly. Not only was there a problem with the water pressure pump, but the thermostat and water distributor were also extremely aged, so he asked someone to contact the boiler manufacturer for a complete replacement.
"Replacing a complete boiler is troublesome." George looked at it and said, "The underground coils and radiators all have to be replaced. I said Qin, you are brave enough. These things need to be replaced every ten years. How many years have you been here?"
How did Qin Shiou know? He asked Auerbach, who thought for a while and said, "This was just replaced before dad passed away, so it was only fifteen or sixteen years ago, right?"
After hearing this, Qin Shiou himself was scared, but in this case, the underground coil does not need to be replaced, this thing can be used for fifty years.
Auerbach said regretfully: "It's best to replace it. Unfortunately, as far as I know, the underground coil has not been replaced since the villa was built. It must have been working for sixty years, right? The person who built the villa I was still a little kid then."
Qin Shiou was helpless and said with a wry smile: "I would rather build a new villa than this."
It is indeed troublesome now. We need to replace the underground coil, so the villaThe floor has to be uncovered, which is equivalent to building the floor all over again.
But it¡¯s okay, the floor needs to be replaced anyway.
The installation of the boiler heating system is very complicated and time-consuming. The plumbing company sent people over to check the situation that day, and then told Qin Shiou: "You have to return this set of equipment. We need to lay the water coils and control lines first, and then we can Install the water distributor and boiler, and finally install the thermostat and debug the system"
"About how long?" Qin Shiou asked with a headache.
The engineer calculated: "Your villa is too big, so it will take a long time. It takes about four days to lay the pipes, four days to install the boiler, and one day to debug. This does not include the time spent on the front and rear processes. In short, , at least ten days.¡±
Qin Shiou said helplessly: "The fastest, don't think about money, how long can it be the fastest?"
Once the floor is removed, the villa will be uninhabitable and everyone will have to move out.
The engineer touched his nose and said: "If you don't care about money, double the number of people and halve the time, about five days"
"Faster, quadruple the number of people!" Qin Shiou put on a bold and generous attitude.
The engineer looked at him funny and said: "Sir, this is not as simple as one plus one equals two. If there are more people, the efficiency will be reduced. I will ask all the people in the company to speed up, and it can be completed in four days."
In Canada, as long as it involves repairing and replacing pipes, it is a mess. The cost of repairs related to pipes is relatively high.
¡°Moreover, inspectors and maintenance personnel are billed by time, starting from the time they leave the office, including the time they are stuck in traffic on the road. However, work such as replacing pipes requires a licensed professional to do it, otherwise even if an individual can do it, it is prohibited by law.
Of course, in order to save money, as long as it¡¯s not a big problem, Canadians will still do it themselves and don¡¯t get into trouble. But once something happens, it's over. Because it's illegal, the insurance will not be responsible, and you have to bear all the expenses.
The boiler needed to be replaced, so Qin Shiou went to see the central air conditioner. If it didn't work, it would have to be replaced. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
