Chapter 115: A Way to Make Money
When she came to Wang Ailan's house, she saw Wang Ailan pasting matchboxes, so she asked Wang Ailan, "Aunt Wang, where did you get this job?" ”
"Where else can I get it from, naturally I picked it up from the town, but this job is sometimes not available when I was a child, and it is unstable."
Shi Qinghuan nodded thoughtfully after hearing Wang Ailan's words, and then she looked at Wang Ailan's pasting matchbox for a while, and asked Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, how much does it cost to paste a matchbox?" ”
"One cent."
"So little?"
"It's a lot, ten pastes are a penny, a hundred pastes are a dime, at my rate I can paste almost three hundred a day, and I can earn three cents.
It's a pity that this job is not done every day, otherwise I would have pasted more matchboxes even if I slept a few hours less every day. ”
Shi Qinghuan didn't know what to say after listening to Wang Ailan's words, because she really couldn't accept such a low-paying job, even if she knew that the salary in this era was generally low, but she still couldn't let herself do such a job.
Immediately, she dismissed the idea of getting work news from Wang Ailan, because she was afraid that Wang Ailan would introduce her to a job similar to pasting matchboxes, and she didn't know how to refuse at that time.
But what she never expected was that the more afraid you were, so when she heard Wang Ailan say that she would help her carry the matchbox home paste, her whole body was numb.
Because she really didn't want to do this job, it was too unchallenging to motivate her at all.
So she pulled out a smile at Wang Ailan, and then said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, I have a very loose nature, my hands are even more stupid, and the paste matchbox is not suitable for me, so if you encounter other jobs in the future, introduce them to me." ”
"Okay, then if I encounter other good jobs in the future, I will introduce it to you, by the way, do you have a high education?"
"Okay, I've graduated from high school."
"You've all graduated from high school?"
"yes, skipping grades in elementary and junior high school."
"No wonder, I said why did you graduate from high school at such a young age, it turned out that you skipped a grade, but it's a pity that you can't go to college now, otherwise there is a job suitable for you."
"What job?"
"Translating foreign books, this kind of person is the most lacking in the research institute now, but it's a pity that few people in our family building have studied in high school, let alone college, so even if everyone covets that job, there is no way."
Shi Qinghuan's eyes lit up immediately after listening to Wang Ailan's words, so she hurriedly asked Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, what foreign language does the research institute need?" ”
"I don't know about this, why are you asking this?"
"Of course I want to try it."
Wang Ailan was stunned when she heard Shi Qinghuan's directness, and after a while she asked Shi Qinghuan, "Do you know a foreign language?" ”
"Yes, if the institute is not too demanding in this regard, then I should be able to meet their requirements."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure."
"Okay, then I'll take you to my man right now and let him take you to apply for a job."
"Isn't that too much of a rush?"
"No, it won't." After Wang Ailan finished speaking, she put away all the materials for the paste matchbox, and then she went into the house to change into clean and unpatched clothes, and went out with Shi Qinghuan and walked towards the office building of the research institute.
