"Of course." Ethan looked at the woman. "Is there an ID card? A driver's license is also OK."
"I have an ID card." Asian women drew in their pockets. Both Chen Kun and Ethan saw that this woman was carrying small pieces of banknotes in her pocket. After groping a few times, she finally found her identity. Certificate, but when he was about to hand it to Ethan, he shrank again, "How much does it cost to stay a night?"
"Ten dollars." Ethan said.
"Then I will stay for two nights."
The woman cobbled together and made up twenty dollars for Ethan.
"Qingli, Li Qing?" Chen Yan glanced at the name on the ID card: "Auntie, are you from China?"
The woman looked at Chen Yan: "Are you Chinese too?"
"Yes, aunt, how long have you been out?"
Now that she has all her ID cards, she should have been in the United States for a long time.
"It's been eight years, eh ... yes, little brother, what's your name?"
"My name is Chen Yan. He is my friend Ethan."
"Hi." Ethan greeted him.
"Hello."
It can be seen that although this woman has been abroad for a while, she is still not very accustomed to Americans' social manners and etiquette. It is estimated that she rarely communicates with people on weekdays.
"Auntie, are you here in Los Angeles?"
"That ... no, I have nowhere to live ... so ..."
"Auntie, is there any trouble?"
"I came here with my son and daughter-in-law to immigrate. I had a good life, but some time ago, my son-in-law died in a car accident. Now I am left alone ... the house has been taken away by the bank ..." said, The woman began to wipe her tears.
"Chen, can you speak English? It's very impolite for you to leave me alone," Ethan said depressedly.
"Auntie, your son-in-law has a car accident. Didn't the insurance company pay it?"
The woman shook her head: "They don't buy much insurance, and the money accompanying the insurance company is not enough to compensate the other party in the car accident ..."
It turned out that her son-in-law was negligent, and Chen Ye sympathized with her.
However, sympathy is one thing, and Chen Ye will not give money for no reason, after all, they are not familiar with it.
"What are you doing now?"
"I ... I have nothing to do, I'm looking for something."
"Isson, do you need a waiter or cleaner here?" Chen Yan asked.
"Do you want to recommend her?"
"If you think it's appropriate," Chen Yan said.
After all, he is a fellow, and Chen Ye can only help.
There are dozens of rooms here in Yisen, but there isn't a waiter or cleaner, so Chen Yi feels that Yisen needs to recruit one.
Of course, if this sister Li is unwilling to do it, it is another matter.
"Okay, but you need to look first. What's your name?"
"I ... Li Qing, Qingshui Qing."
Chen Yan said to Li Qing: "Aunt Li, if you need a job, you can stay here for a while and help Yisen do some chores. Of course, if you have another plan, let me say nothing."
"Okay, okay, I'll make it, as long as I have a place to live and eat with a bite."
"A seven-day trial period. There will be no salary during these seven days. You can pay for food and accommodation. After seven days, if you can satisfy me, then I can give you $ 30 a day during the low season and $ 50 a day during the high season. I clean up the room. After finishing the cleaning, I will do whatever you have for the rest of the time, and you can find another part-time job. "
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, and little brother."
Chen Yun estimated that Li Qing is a part-time worker, and in terms of the occupancy rate of the Yisen Hotel, it usually takes about two hours to clean up all the rooms. Two hours and thirty dollars are still a good income. Even many temporary workers do not necessarily have such high hourly wages.
The minimum hourly rate varies from state to state in the United States. The minimum hourly rate in Los Angeles is ten dollars.
"Li, you take a day off first, and you will start work tomorrow."
"Thank you."
After Li Qing left, Ethan said, "Chen, I only helped her in my face, but I need to investigate her first."
The so-called seven-day trial period is actually the time of Ethan's investigation.
"But I'm wondering why you took the initiative to help a woman."
Chen Ye looked at Li Qing who had already walked up the stairs: "If I don't help her, maybe she will die in your hotel."
In despair, the first thing that comes to mind is death.
Laohei saw the woman's death. Two days later, Li Qing, who had run out of water, chose to die in this hotel.
That's why Chen Yan will do a little favor for her. Just a little favor, this woman will not die.
Ethan has always been a superstitious person, and has always believed that Chen Yi has supernatural abilities.
So when I heard Chen Yan's words, my eyes changed.
At this time, Chen Yan's phone rang.
"Hey, Rasfa, is there anything wrong? The second treatment was not so fast."
"No, Chen, it's not a cure. Remember the last party, because Daniel had an accident and it failed to be held. I hope you can appreciate this time."
Since Daniel's thighs grew, Rasfa's impression of Chen Yan has completely changed.
He is a person who can decide his own life and death, and even how long he lives.
Lasfa hopes that he can maintain a closer relationship with Chen Yong and make up for the mistakes he made in the past.
"So, can I take a friend with me?"
"Of course, your friend is my friend."
"What time?"
"Just tonight."
"Then we will see you tonight."
"See you tonight."
"Ethan, have a party. Let's go together."
"No, it's all people I don't know."
"Oh Beverly Hills, there are female stars, maybe you can hook up."
"Female star?" Ethan's Sahar is about to come out.
Seeing Yisen's face, Chen Kun had no hope of whether he could be a female star.
Unless the female stars are blind ...
"Isen, you need to rent a dress."
"Ah? It ’s too much trouble to rent a dress."
"If you want to gain something at the party tonight."
"Okay okay ..." Ethan's cheeks twitched.
Renting a slightly higher-quality gown costs one or two hundred dollars a day, which is not a small amount.
However, if you can really hook up with a female star, then this sacrifice is also worth it.
"Li, help me look at the shop today. I'll give you fifty dollars."
"Boss ... I'm afraid I can't do well ..."
"It doesn't matter, just open the room for the other party as long as you give money, it's easy ..."
"I don't know English."
"It's okay, even if you don't have a document, just pay for it."
"Well then, if there is something I don't understand, I'll call you."
