Chapter 009: Translation Work

Regarding the money stuffed by Kong Mingqing, Lin Jie was desperate to give in, and excused: "This is neighborly help, how can you collect money?"

"If I accept it, my grandfather will definitely blame me for his dreams! Brother Kong, if you really don't want to go, just give me that surgical medical first aid kit, I like it a lot!"

Seeing that Lin Jie really didn't accept this money, Kong Mingqing kept this matter in his heart, didn't continue to be polite, patted Lin Jie's shoulder and said: "If there is anything you need my help with in the future, just say it directly, if I don't say half a word, I won't be surnamed Kong!"

"First aid kit, I'll give it to you in a moment. ”

"That's because Zhang Li was worried about my work, for fear that there would be a case, so I bought it! I have been at home for more than two years, but I didn't expect it to be used. In the future, if you need any medicines or medical equipment, tell Zhang Li directly, she has a way!"

Kong Mingqing still had to go to the hospital to take care of Zhang Li, and after taking the first aid kit, he said goodbye and left!

Lin Jie rearranged the things in the first aid kit, and after putting them away, he began to prepare dinner.

But soon received a call from Zhang Xiaoxiao, saying that there was a customer to see the house at night, and he would not come back for dinner, and Lin Miao would not go home until ten o'clock in the evening!

Lin Jie was not in the mood to cook anymore, so he cooked a bowl of green vegetable egg noodles at random!

After the meal, after washing the blood-stained pajamas, Lin Jie opened the second-hand laptop and checked his mailbox.

He left a few posts on several translation websites and related forums, saying that he was good at German, especially the translation of German medical papers, which was not only fast, but also high quality and high price, and the contact information was an e-mail address.

Lin Jie has already understood the market price of translation.

In foreign translation, 1,000 words range from 100 to 200, English is the cheapest, the rarer the language, the higher the price, and the translation of scientific and technological articles such as theses, the price rises by 20% to 50%.

The price of Chinese translation will increase by 20% to 50% on the basic price of foreign translation!

Knowing this price, Lin Jie was very annoyed that the papers he translated for Dr. Gao Quanhai in Binhai Tongren Hospital were treated as cheap labor.

He opened his mailbox and was disappointed to find that although he received a lot of emails, they were all advertising junk files!

Depressed, he pressed Select All, and when he was about to delete it, an email suddenly popped up with the title "German medical paper translation, time is tight, please contact us quickly"

Lin Jie was overjoyed and immediately clicked on this email!

The content of the email is similar to the title, except that there is an extra signature of Luo Shanshan and a mobile phone number.

Lin Jie immediately used his mobile phone to dial this number, and it was actually from the same city!

The phone was quickly connected, and a tired female voice came from the other side of the phone, "I'm Luo Shanshan, who is it?"

"I'm Lin Jie, and I just received an email from you translating a German paper!"

Lin Jie deliberately lowered his voice to make his voice deeper, so that his voice was more mature!

Luo Shanshan's inquiry immediately came from the receiver of the mobile phone: "Oh! You said in the post that your translation speed is fast, how fast can you do it?"

"I can do simultaneous interpretation!" Lin Jie said confidently!

"Really, this is a medical paper in German, with a lot of technical vocabulary!"

Luo Shanshan on the other end of the communication was obviously a little unconvinced, but immediately came her surprise inquiry: "Are you a fellow doctor who studied in Germany?"

"Sort of!" Lin Jie replied vaguely!

"Great! These papers are very urgent, and it would be nice if they could be done tonight. ”

As soon as the words fell, Luo Shanshan's eager voice came again: "Your number is also Binhai, are you Binhai now? Is it convenient to meet? I want to ask you in person, a few medical terms translation questions!"

"In terms of pay, you won't be disappointed. ”

Lin Jie was moved by the "reward that will not disappoint" and said his general location.

Unexpectedly, the other party was quite familiar with this area, and immediately said a nearby coffee shop as the meeting address.

Nearly half an hour later, Lin Jie, dressed in a new style, wearing sneakers, khaki pants, and a long-sleeved T-shirt, came to this Blue Mountain coffee shop that he had just passed by before, but had never stepped in.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Lin Jie, who drank a glass of lemonade, saw a tall young woman with medium and long hair, carrying a leather bag, walking quickly towards his booth!

She was wearing low-heeled leather shoes, slim jeans, and a short-sleeved small T-shirt, and her appearance was quite beautiful, although she was wearing light makeup, it was difficult to hide the fatigue on her face!

Lin Jie guessed that she might have just gotten off work from the hospital not long ago!

When she approached, Lin Jie hurriedly stood up and asked, "Ms. Luo Shanshan?"

The person who came looked Lin Jie up and down a few times, couldn't help frowning, his face was not in disbelief, there was still a faint anger in his eyes, and he asked, "You are the Lin ...... who talked to me on the phone." Jay?"

Lin Jie naturally knew that the reason why the other party behaved like this was that he was too young, and hurriedly explained: "I am Lin Jie, please believe me, I definitely did not deceive you." ”

"Now I'm in front of you, the so-called mule is a horse, you can know it as soon as you try!"

Luo Shanshan snorted coldly, didn't say much, took out a printed paper directly from her purse, threw it to Lin Jie, and said coldly: "Translation, right away!"

He looks average, but he has a big temper.

Lin Jie sneered, began to read the paper in his hand, and read casually: "Under positioning, the clinical application of small-scale hemilaminectomy in the treatment of neuraxial tumors." ”

"Abstract:ObjectiveTo explore the method and effect of small-scale hemilaminectomy in the treatment of neuraxial tumors under positioning......

Lin Jie said twenty or thirty words without a pause, then stopped, and said to Luo Shanshan, who was already sitting opposite, "Have I proven my ability?"

Luo Shanshan hurriedly nodded, showed an apologetic smile, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm judging people by their appearance! There are a total of four papers here, please translate them!"

With that, she took out a stack of papers from her purse and put them in front of Lin Jie.

Lin Jie also sat down, and while flipping through the titles of these papers, he casually translated, "MRI diagnosis of extramedullary subdural tumors in the spinal canal, clinical analysis of surgical resection of spinal tumors through posterior lamina decompression......"

He put the papers back on the coffee table and said, "It's all papers about neuraxial tumors, and for me, there is no difficulty. Let's talk about remuneration first!"

"Oh yes, the pay!"

Luo Shanshan took out six thousand yuan from her purse, put it on the coffee table, and said softly: "I know the market for the translation of German medical papers, which is about 200 words per 1,000!"

"These four papers are about 20,000 words, as long as you translate them well tonight, these 6,000 are yours!"

Lin Jie's eyes lit up, and he said softly: "Your mobile phone can record, right?"

"Naturally!"

In the next two hours, Lin Jie drank five glasses of lemonade, went to the toilet, and finally finished the four papers.

Luo Shanshan put away her mobile phone, smiled on her face, and said: "The day after tomorrow, a German expert will come to our hospital to perform spinal canal tumor removal surgery for a patient. ”

"I have a few medical questions to ask this German expert!"

"I don't know if you have time the day after tomorrow, I want to ask you to be my on-site escort interpreter? Four thousand a day, how about it?"

For this kind of thing that is not tired and can make money, Lin Jie naturally has time.

The two agreed on the time and place to meet the day after tomorrow, and after Luo Shanshan paid the bill, she hurriedly said goodbye to Lin Jie and left.

Lin Jie, who had 6,000 yuan in his arms, walked out of the coffee shop in a comfortable mood.

As soon as he looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, so he didn't go home directly, but came to the nearby No. 82 bus stop and waited for Lin Miao to come back from work.

Lin Jie's luck was not bad, he only waited for less than ten minutes, and the bus came!

When the bus stopped, he saw a familiar figure, slowly getting down from the door, casually unfolding the folded guide stick, and quickly greeted it.

Lin Miao stopped, tilted her head, a smile overflowed on her face, and shouted, "Brother!"

"Miao Miao, it's me!"

Lin Jie stepped forward and shook her hand, and said briskly: "I took a job as a translator tonight, and I just finished working with customers at Blue Mountain Coffee, and I earned six thousand, isn't it amazing?"

Lin Miao hugged Lin Jie's arm, jumped twice happily, and said, "Ah...... My brother is so powerful, the money you make in one night can catch up with me for a month!"

Lin Jie smiled and smug himself: "That's, I don't see whose brother I am! I didn't have time to make supper tonight, I'll take you to Xianghe Noodle Restaurant to eat, it's time to celebrate!"

"Okay, it's been a long time since I've been there!"

Lin Miao showed a yearning expression, turned her little head, and asked, "Sister Xiaoxiao didn't come along?"

Before dinner, she called and said that there was a customer to see the house, so she didn't come back for dinner. After that, I came out to meet the client, and I guess she should be back. I'll give her a call!"

Lin Jie took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhang Xiaoxiao's phone.

The phone rang for a long time and no one answered!

Just when Lin Jie was about to hang up, the phone was connected, and Zhang Xiaoxiao cried and slurred his voice: "Lin Jie, where are you? I'm going to die, come back quickly!"
