After Entering the Book, She Became Rich in the 1980s

Chapter 87 Knowledge is wealth

After listening to Zhang Fulan's words, Jiang Xia guessed that her desire to ask for help from her was related to her knowledge of French. The girl's personality was very enthusiastic, which reminded Jiang Xia of her best friend in her previous life, so she said, "I'll help you if you can, but you don't need to spend so much money. These things are too valuable for me to accept, and I don’t know if I can help you.”

Zhang Fuyan smiled and said: "I am borrowing flowers to worship Buddha. There are so many of these things in my grandma's house that I can't eat them all. I can't use them all. She asked me to take them and I didn't spend a penny."

After Zhang Fuyan put down her things, she went to the back seat of the car and brought back a few French books.

"My aunt works in a publishing house. These foreign books are urgently needed to be translated and published. She asked me to help, but there are too many books. I can't handle them all by myself. I just wanted to ask if you are free. Do it with me?"

Didn't someone just give me a pillow when I was dozing off? Jiang Xia took a look and saw that there were three thick books. She had read the translation in her previous life, and said directly: "This is you helping me, not me helping you. I am looking for a part-time job as a translator."

Of course Zhang Fuyan knew that she wanted to find a translation job, so she came here specifically to find her. Of course, her aunt was really in short supply of translators.

She picked up the three thick books and said: "My aunt paid me one hundred yuan for the three thicker books, and fifty yuan for the four thinner ones. I will pay you the same price." , what do you think?”

This was the price her aunt gave her. It would never be so high for others. She specially brought a few more copies to share with Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia didn't know how much it cost to translate now, and it wasn't actually very thick. She felt that the price was definitely not low, and nodded: "Okay, I can finish the translation for you in about a month."

Zhang Fulan was surprised. There are seven books here, three of them are quite thick. Can they be translated in a month?

She said hurriedly: "Don't worry, you can just translate one book in half a month. Then send each translated book to the publishing house, and you can get the money first."

Jiang Xia: "Then I'll translate it first and bring it to you in two days to see what you think."

"OK."

Mother Zhou glanced at the books and silently raised her fingers: One book is one hundred, three books are three hundred, two fifty books are one hundred, two books are one hundred, four books are two hundred, then the total Isn’t it just five hundred yuan?

Xiaoxia can complete the translation in one month. If a book is translated every month, wouldn't he be able to earn 500 a month?

My dear, she usually earns one yuan a day from weaving fishing nets, but she only earns about thirty yuan a month at most.

Knowledge is wealth, and it is indeed the truth!

Jiang Xia added: "Do you have any other foreign books that need to be translated? I also understand English and Russian."

Jiang Xia didn't dare to say too much. She only spoke after seeing English and Russian books on the original owner's bookshelf.

When you go to college and take electives, you can use the six foreign languages ​​you learned in your previous life and try to learn a few more in this life.

She is very gifted in languages, and she is the kind of person who is rewarded by God. So she took foreign languages ​​as an elective during her four years of college and postgraduate studies.

Anyway, it’s free to take classes in college, so why not pay more?

After paying off the debt, she no longer has to work so many jobs and can take classes whenever she has time.

Foreign languages ​​can be learned while working, walking, taking the bus, or even taking a shower, so she learned the most. She took four foreign languages ​​in four years as an undergraduate and two more as a graduate student.

Zhang Fuyan: "..."

Did she really take the college entrance examination three times but never get into college?

Zhang Fuyan looked around at the stone house and then saw Zhou Chenglei grabbing a chicken in the yard and swiping the chicken's neck with a kitchen knife in his hand.

Her neck felt inexplicably cold!

Oh my god, a man with a reserved momentum, and a woman who looks gentle and harmless but is actually very secretive. Is this small farmhouse a crouching tiger, hidden dragon?

Seeing Zhou Chenglei killing chickens, Zhou's mother went out to help.

She had already prepared lunch. She knew that her son and daughter-in-law would be back today, but she didn't know whether they would come back in the evening or at noon. She went to the pier in the morning and bought some flower turtles and mudfish, but it was still not enough to entertain the guests.

Zhou's mother was going to see if anyone was still selling seafood at the pier, when shouts came from outside.

"There's pork for sale! There's pork for sale!..."

They are a small fishing village. On weekdays, most people eat seafood, and few people are willing to buy meat. Therefore, few people come to sell pork. Today, it was rare. Zhou's mother hurried out to buy it.

Jiang Xia also saw Zhou Chenglei killing chickens. She asked Zhou Chenglei to kill them. It was already lunch time, so Zhang Fulan would have to eat lunch at home. She was afraid that there would not be enough food.

Jiang Xia wanted to help cook, but she couldn't leave Zhang Fuyan sitting in the hall by herself. She could only let Zhou Chenglei and Zhou's mother do the cooking.

Jiang Xia asked Zhang Fulan again: "Do you have German or Japanese books there?"

Zhang Fuyan's eyes widened: "Do you know German and Japanese?" Jiang Xia: "No, I just want to learn."

Zhang Fulan breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, I will find it for you."

It scared her to death!

She, a foreign language major who vowed to be a translator, would be ashamed of herself!

At this time, Zhou Zhou ran in with a handful of wild fruits. He was startled when he saw Zhang Fulan, a little shy and at a loss.

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Zhou Zhou, this is Sister Yan."

Zhou Zhou called out softly: "Sister Yan."

Then she boldly stepped forward and put the picked wild fruits on the table: "Little aunt, sister Yan, you eat."

Zhang Fuyan smiled, took one and put it in her mouth to taste it, and then said: "Is this picked by Zhou Zhou? It's delicious! My sister has never eaten it, thank you Zhou Zhou."

Then she took out a doll and a toy airplane and said, "Thank you Zhou Zhou for treating me to some fruit."

Zhou Zhou saw the doll and subconsciously looked at Jiang Xia.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Jiang Xia smiled and said: "Zhou Zhou, take it!"

Zhou Zhou took it and whispered: "Thank you, sister Yan."

Then Jiang Xia let her play.

Zhang Fuyan asked Jiang Xia about her experience in learning foreign languages. Because Zhang Fuyan was studying foreign languages, the two of them had a lot to talk about, and they kept chatting until they had dinner.

After dinner, it was almost three o'clock, and Jiang Xia took Zhang Fulan to the beach for more than an hour. Zhang Fuyan took many photos until she ran out of film.

Jiang Xia saw a fishing boat coming back from the pier, and took her to the pier to buy her a lot of seafood. Then she brought the seafood sent by Jiang Xia, dried golden pomfret, dried shrimps and two chickens and ducks that Zhou Mu had killed. A basket of sea duck eggs and a snakeskin bag of vegetables and fruits were sent home.

Jiang Xia was afraid that her car would fall into a pit again, so she and Zhou Chenglei sent her out of the village.

After that, Jiang Xia went home and Zhou Chenglei went to the dock.

Father Zhou went to sea with Zhou Chengxin today, and he went to help move the goods.

When Jiang Xia got home, she sorted out the gifts brought by Zhang Fulan and the three big bags of things given by Jiang's mother.

She first sorted out Zhang Fulan's things and took out a notebook to register.

The things Zhang Fulan brought included a bag and a set of clothes. These two items were obviously given to her. They were both brand-name and a bit expensive.

There are also two cans of milk powder, two cans of malted milk, two cans of Maotai liquor, a box of Dahongpao tea, two large Qianmen cigarettes, biscuits, a large bag of candy cans, as well as the dolls and toy airplanes Zhou Zhou was playing with.

Jiang Xia opened a white rabbit candy, fed it to Zhou Zhou, and ate one herself.

Tian Caihua walked in just then and saw the toy airplane in Zhou Zhou's hand, and her eyes lit up: "Xiao Xia, did you buy this toy airplane for Guang Zong Yaozu and the others? Oh, your little aunt is so nice! I knew you loved them!"

She stepped forward and snatched the toy airplane from Zhou Zhou's hand. This toy airplane was more majestic than the toy train owned by Uncle Qiang's grandson!

The youngest son saw that Uncle Qiang’s grandson had a toy train, and he pestered her to buy it every day. However, those toy trains and toy cars were too expensive, and they could only be sold in the city. How could she give up?

Zhou Zhou was stunned for a moment and lowered his head.
