Chapter 5 Reading Seeds

In addition, the dental store must be approved by the government and pay taxes, in addition, the dental store must also play a role in helping the government control the market and manage business, so it is also called official teeth.

However, although it has a close relationship with the government, it is ultimately outsourced, so many tooth shops will secretly do some personal gain.

The government also turns a blind eye to this, after all, they are all 'close people', as long as they grasp the proportions, they will not pursue it.

Li Yi's tooth tag today belongs to this list.

……

Tongyue Restaurant.

Li Yi sat in the lobby near the door, silently watching the restaurant shopkeeper who was talking and laughing with the Yaxing guy at the counter.

The shopkeeper is short and fat, and his squinting eyes can feel the shrewdness from afar.

After waiting for the tooth shop guys to leave, Jia Youyou beckoned to Li Yi with a smile.

"I heard that your home is in Yuyang, I used to be there a few times when I was doing business, it was a good place, and the people were outstanding..."

After a few casual words, Jia Youyou's eyes suddenly fell on the rice bowl that Li Yi put on the counter.

Inside, there are more than a dozen autumn oranges with golden colors.

"You're clever enough to know I'm so good."

Before Li Yi could react, Jia Youyou had already stretched out his chubby hand.

“……”

Looking at Jia Youyou's action of peeling oranges, Li Yi couldn't help but ask: "Shopkeeper Jia, can I go to work today?" ”

Jia Youyou glanced at Li Yi in surprise, it was the first time he had seen someone who was so anxious to work.

In the lobby of the restaurant, Li Yi was wearing a white rag unique to Xiao Er on his shoulder, and beside him, another Xiao Er was taking him to familiarize himself with the work process.

"After the guest orders, you just need to go to the back kitchen to get the food, but remember, there can't be no one in the lobby, if you are the only one left, then wait in the lobby, even if someone in the middle of the order just need to write down, and wait until someone comes back to take over..."

Zhao Shi, who looked thin and smart, carefully explained the precautions to Li Yi, until he felt that there was nothing wrong with him, and then asked Li Yi to greet the guests.

About the time of tea, some guests sat near Li Yi.

Li Yi's eyes lit up, walked quickly to the table, first symbolically wiped the table with a rag, and then said eagerly: "What does the guest officer want to do?" ”

After a while, Li Yi, who finished serving the food, moved in his heart.

Just now, the progress bar in his mind had a new change.

……

The busiest time of day in the restaurant lobby is in the morning and afternoon, which coincides with the time of eating and feeding.

In addition, if the guests of the guest room need ancillary services, they also need to go to greet them.

It's basically some food delivery, tea and cleaning.

In the evening, by the time the restaurant closes, it is already time.

Returning to the residence arranged by the shopkeeper, Li Yi began to check the day's harvest.

[Occupation: Primary 2]

[Progress: 5/100]

In addition to the new junior second profession, the previous progress of the beggar profession still exists, and the two are like two distinct lines, which do not conflict with each other and go their own way.

However, the fly in the ointment is that there is a curfew in Fucheng, otherwise he can work in the restaurant during the day and go to work overtime at night to ask for food.

Wouldn't it be more efficient to go hand in hand like this?

Sitting at the table, Li Yi looked at the tongue of fire jumping on the lamp, and felt more and more bored.

In my previous life, nightlife had just begun, and there were countless activities to entertain, even if I was at my desk, I was accompanied by such a thing as a night shift.

It's not an exaggeration to say that you have used your time to the extreme!

It's like this world, if you want to work overtime, you don't have a chance to 007.

After thinking for a moment, Li Yi fell on the tooth card in his hand.

On the front of the tooth tag, a piece of engraved small letters is neatly arranged vertically.

Li Yi still remembers the content of these words clearly.

"In the autumn of the seventeenth year, Yu Yang passed the card, relocated Zhuguan, and held a parallel order..."

After reading through the words that resembled seals, Li Yi's heart moved slightly.

He might find time to go to the market and buy some pen, ink, paper, and books like dictionaries and dictionaries.

Opposite the restaurant, there is a writer who writes on behalf of others, and then only needs to ask the writer to explain the meaning of the words, and he can mark it with simplified Chinese characters on the side.

In this way, in the evening, he can pass the time with the help of practicing Chinese and calligraphy.

...

Following.

Taking advantage of the lack of customers in the restaurant, Li Yi came to a bookstore.

After learning of Li Yi's intentions, the shopkeeper of the bookstore took out three notebooks.

"These are the Mengxue enlightenment scripts, if you want to learn words, you can start with this."

Mengxue is a school for children to start reading, which is equivalent to a kindergarten.

Li Yi took the notebook template and looked at it, and asked, "Is there a Dawei dictionary?" It is a book that is the sum of all words and phrases. ”

The shopkeeper of the bookstore replied: "There are Cantonese character sets, word interpretation sets, and general word sets, all of which are word vocabulary books. ”

Li Yi nodded and began to ask about the price.

"A collection of 400 characters in one volume, a total of eight volumes."

"The price of the Tongzi set is the same as that of the Cantonese character set, and the price of the solution character set is higher, one volume of 600 texts, a total of 10 volumes ......"

Li Yi gasped, the price of this book is simply ridiculously expensive!

One tael of silver is equivalent to 1,200 wen, and this one set of characters alone will cost five taels of silver!

Li Yi begged for less than three taels of broken silver, if you want to buy it, you can only choose from the general character set and the Guangzi set...

decisively changed the bookstore, and after Li Yi asked again, the price he got was still the same as the former.

In the end, Li Yi left the bookstore with a slightly cheaper set of characters.

At this time, he had less than two pennies of silver left on him.

In the following days, in addition to running the hall in the restaurant, Li Yi was looking for the writer to mark the character collection.

The writer who copied and wrote letters for others on the street was an old talent, and after Li Yi asked him for advice on the collection of characters many times, the two gradually became acquainted.

Lao Xiucai's asking price is not high, only 20 wen at a time, but Li Yi can mark at least 300 words each time.

"What does that mean?"

Looking at the words that Li Yi was referring to, Liu Qingsheng explained: "This word is the degree of reading, the temperament of people, is the degree used. ”

Taking a pen and marking it with simplified characters, Li Yi closed the book and said, "I won't come tomorrow, and I'll come back when the monthly money is paid next month." ”

For several days of continuous expenses, Li Yi's money has already bottomed out, if it weren't for the food and accommodation in the restaurant, he would definitely not dare to make it like this.

Liu Qingsheng said disapprerovantly when he heard this: "You just have to come here, it doesn't hurt to take the money on credit first." ”

For Li Yi, Liu Qingsheng has regarded him as a natural reading seed.

If it weren't for the seeds of reading, how could you listen to him talk about the meaning of words once and learn the words?

In just a few days, Liu Qingsheng has witnessed Li Yi's transformation from being illiterate to being illiterate to being literate.

In his eyes, if Li Yiken learns to read and study hard, his future achievements will not be lower than him.

"Thank you, sir, then."

Li Yi did not refuse Liu Qingsheng's kindness.

Da Wei's commonly used words are also about 4,000, and with his current memory, it won't be long before he can take it.
