Chapter 679: Cost money

Wang Xuecheng helped Yan Ci from the ground.
Yan Ci's face was pale, and he could see that he had suffered a heavy blow.
There are many people around him like him.
Wang Xuecheng couldn't understand the love of Yanci Dialogue's novel. In his opinion, it was a plaything.
He asked Yan Ci in a low voice, "Brother Yan, what next?"
Yan Ci wiped his face and said, "Go back and study the questions. Brother Wang, you also buy two exercise sets and go back. Learn from me and study the questions every day. I find someone to ask for the answer. As long as 95% of the answers are correct, you can definitely Admitted to the college."
Wang Xuecheng nodded repeatedly, and under Yan Ci's introduction, he chose two exercise sets.
"This is the third edition. It's best for your current level, Brother Wang. Just ask me if you don't understand."
"Thank you Brother Yan. Wouldn't Brother Yan buy it?"
"Buy, of course. I want to buy the fourth edition."
The two went to the counter to check out the books.
The shopkeeper saw that they had bought three copies, so he gave a discount.
Wang Xuecheng spent one to five cents at once, and his face turned green.
Consumption in Xinmin County is not cheap, at least much more expensive than in rural towns.
When he walked into the noodle shop and ate a bowl of fried noodles, he didn't even have any froth. Looking at the price, Wang Xuecheng was more determined to find work as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the landlord will also be kicked out of the room without starving to death.
Back at the rental house, Wang Xuecheng said goodbye and hurried to find Wang Xiaoxi.
Wang Xiaoxi was full of food and drink, mouth full of oil, and was picking his teeth.
Seeing Wang Xuecheng, he greeted: "Have you eaten?"
Wang Xuecheng nodded, "Eat!"
Wang Xiaoxi threw the toothpick away, "Go, I'll take you to find work. I just thought about eating. You don’t have a stove in your house. You can borrow the landlord’s stove to cook and eat. It’s best to give the landlord some money to avoid Gossiping."
Wang Xuecheng said, "Do I have to pay for hot water?"
Wang Xiaoxi chuckled, "You give the landlord thirty or forty cents a month, hot water, and briquettes for cooking. The landlord has all the money."
"Then if I sell the stove by myself, what will Guan Shi think?"
Wang Xiaoxi shook her head repeatedly, "It's not worth it. You are a scholar, time is precious, and you can't make a fire every day, so you have to keep the stove burning all the time. It costs money if you count it alone. Unless two people work together to use a stove."
Wang Xuecheng thought of Yan Ci. Perhaps he could use a stove with Yan Ci and share the expenses equally between the two.
Then I thought about it, I found a job, I didn't have many opportunities to use coal stoves, and it seemed unfair to me to share the expenses.
After thinking about it, I haven't made a decision yet.
He said, "I will think about it again."
Wang Xiaoxi said to him: "You have to remember that Xinmin County uses coal stoves, and now no one burns wood. So you don't burn wood either."
"Why?"
"The mountains are closed. If you want to burn firewood, you have to pay for firewood. Buying firewood is more expensive than a coal burner, understand?"
Wang Xuecheng looked at the mountain in the distance, "Is all that big mountain sealed?"
"Yeah! Since the college was built on it, the entire mountain has been sealed off. I heard that the scenery above is excellent, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance to go up. When you are admitted to the college, you will be free to stroll around the mountain."
Wang Xuecheng's longing for it, clenched his fists, and said seriously: "I must be admitted to Shanhe Academy."
Wang Xiaoxi laughed, "I am optimistic about you, you must be promising."
Wang Xuecheng nodded heavily.
Wang Xiaoxi took Wang Xuecheng to the yard, "I wanted to find you a clerk, but the clerk must be acquaintance. You just came, and people don't know your foundation and dare not use you as a clerk.
This cargo yard needs a cargo registrar. You are a scholar, so this is certainly no problem.
For four hours a day, one day’s wages are thirty-five wen. Get paid back in ten days. You can take three days off a month. What do you think? "
"Thirty-five cents a day?" Wang Xuecheng was dry and almost speechless.
Wang Xiaoxi was a little embarrassed, "San Lang, don't think too much. You are a newcomer, and you have no choice but to get the salary. When you get familiar with it in the future, you can discuss with your boss, and the salary will increase to 50 yuan a day."
"No, no, I'm not too small."
He felt too much.
How can Xinmin County earn so much money?
It's incredible.
Just do the registration without any effort, and you can get thirty-five cents a day.
Wang Xiaoxi came to understand and laughed out loud, "When you are admitted to the fame as a scholar, you can find a job in Xinmin County, and you will get seventy or eighty renminbi for less one day.
Even if you haven't been admitted to the talents, as long as you have studied in Shanhe Academy, the bosses will rush to ask you to earn two or three taels a month. Save a little, and in two years, you can save enough down payment, loan to buy a house in the second phase. "
Wang Xuecheng felt his head dizzy. The money here is too good to earn.
The family has to make some money, it is really exhausting. Sometimes I can't make a penny if I work hard.
Even in the county seat, making money is extremely difficult.
The price of Xinmin County hit Wang Xuecheng hard.
However, the income here has subverted his perception.
It turned out that making money was not as difficult as he thought.
As long as you have read a book, it is very easy to support yourself in Xinmin County.
Wang Xuecheng followed Wang Xiaoxi and went to see the yard manager.
The yard steward was fairly honest after taking the test of Wang Xuecheng. Although things are a bit slow, newcomers are justified. After working for a few days, I wanted to speed up.
The cargo yard manager made a decision on the spot, "I will report here on time at three o'clock tomorrow morning. We are mainly busy in the morning and morning, and basically nothing will happen after noon. You can go back to school at the end of the month. Remember to take an exam at the end of the month. Ask for leave.
We have two meals here, breakfast and lunch. Come over tomorrow morning to pick up work clothes. Work clothes cannot be taken home. You must wear work clothes when you work. Otherwise, whoever knows who is at night will not be able to bear the mistakes. Remember it? "
Wang Xuecheng nodded again and again, keeping in mind what the steward had said.
Finally, the freight yard manager came up with a three-party employment contract, "Sign the first half a month. After half a month, if there is no problem, we will sign a new one."
Wang Xuecheng, who has been popularized by Wang Xiaoxi, knows that no matter whether it is working or renting a house in Xinmin County, he must sign a tripartite contract and get the Yamen registration.
After completing the formalities, Wang Xuecheng was relieved and finally found a job. He was not afraid of starving to death or being driven out by the landlord.
Wang Xiaoxi took Wang Xuecheng out of the yard, "I think you don’t have a seal, so you have to hurry up to make a private seal. Here in Xinmin County, you can do everything without a seal. By the way, you can only make a seal at the market public house. Seals made elsewhere are not counted. You can rest assured that the price is fair."
Wang Xuecheng kept it in mind, and again and again thanked Wang Xiaoxi for his help.
Had it not been for Wang Xiaoxi to lead the way, he would come to Xinmin County alone, not knowing how many heads he had to meet and how much he would suffer to settle down smoothly.
And without Wang Xiaoxi's guarantee, it is impossible for the cargo yard manager to give the job of the registrar to a stranger.
The landlord will not rent the house to him at a low price.
Wang Xiaoxi is the nobleman of Wang Xuecheng.
Wang Xuecheng made up his mind silently, and when he received his first salary, he would invite Wang Xiaoxi to dinner as a thank you.
In the evening, Wang Xuecheng and the landlord reached an agreement with 35 yuan a month, including hot water, and briquettes for cooking.
I paid thirty-five cents at a time, and randomly fried a dish for dinner.
Wang Xuecheng was formally settled down.
He learned the stern speech, started fighting at night, and started to brush up the questions.
The result is a suspicion of life.
Twelve male guests and seven female families lived in an inn. The next day, I left four male guests and three female relatives, and then moved into seven male guests and five female relatives. The third day...the fourth day...the fifth day...
Ask how many men and girls are there in the inn?
This is the question?
This is the question of the entrance examination for the past years
Wang Xuecheng once again suspected that he had read fake books.
He took out the yellow form and calculated slowly.
Finally worked out an accurate answer, and as a result, a quarter of an hour has passed.
Stern words: "Brother Wang, you can't do this! There is a time limit for the entrance exam. A total of one and a half hours to complete all the questions. A simple arithmetic question actually took a quarter of an hour, no, no. You are like this, for sure Can’t pass the exam. Not only do you have to make sure that the answer is accurate, but also fast enough.
Wang Xuecheng: "..." Brother Yan can see the face that I have no love for.
He asked: "Why is there a time limit? Why is it only an hour and a half? Who can finish it. Doesn't this rule keep all the students in the world out of the door."
"Brother Wang looks down on the world's students too. I took the entrance exam four times, and there were thousands of people each time. Brother Wang guessed, how many people passed the entrance exam each time?"
Wang Xuecheng asked stupidly: "How much?"
Yan Ci smiled, "The first time, 220 people were admitted, the second time, 180 people were admitted, and the third time..."
Listening to Yan Ci's statistic one by one, Wang Xuecheng felt the pressure suddenly, "There are so many people admitted to the academy. How many people are there in Shanhe Academy?"
"Let’s say there are less than one or two thousand people. Our entrance exams and the colleges have people who finish their homecoming exams every month. It is said that the colleges are very large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of students at the same time."
In addition to shock, Wang Xuecheng was shocked.
"Ten thousand people study together?"
It is totally unimaginable.
Yan Ci patted Wang Xuecheng on the shoulder, "So in this life, I must go to the Shanhe Academy to learn more. Brother Wang, work hard! You still have a long way to go."
Wang Xuecheng: "..." I beg Brother Yan not to hit him again.
He has endured too many blows today.
boom!
There was a heavy door closing downstairs.
Yan Ci and Wang Xuecheng walked out of the house together and looked downstairs.
Xiucai Xue, who lives in the same building, exclaimed, "Reliable news, absolutely reliable news, Wenqing Bookstore is about to publish a collection of questions for the first students in all entrance examinations."
"really?"
"It's true. It is said that it will be officially released in five days, with a lightback version, a paperback version, and a hardcover version!"
"Be sure to buy one back."
"I want to see where the first place in the exam is."
"Have a chance to see the style of No. 1, not bad, not bad."
Wang Xuecheng was infected by the crowd and became excited. Buy, buy, buy, must buy.
It just costs money.
