Two stupid postmodern life

Wu Wei took the piece of paper and went to the office next to Jiqing Building to look for Maizi.

Farming can only keep their family from starving. This is just the current situation, because in the past five years in Shike, the government has exempted them from taxes in order to recuperate. If Wu Wei guessed correctly, the resumption of tax payment is The past two years.

At that time, the food produced by that bit of land may not be enough.Coupled with the fact that grandma is getting old, money for decoction is also essential.

Maizi looked at the piece of paper, put it aside, and wrote on the long piece of paper on the table: "How old are you?"

"Thirteen."

Maizi looked at Wu Wei carefully again: "The physique is not good, what are the specialties?"

"Farming...Does fighting count? I fight very well."

Maizi wrote two strokes on the paper: "What kind of part-time job do you want to find?"

"Anything is fine." Wu Wei said with some hesitation, "Don't look at me as weak, I can do anything, and I have great strength."

Maizi took out a notebook, opened it, looked at it, and said, "You are not tall, and jobs that rely solely on strength are not suitable for you. If you have good legs and feet, you can do some errand delivery work, or part-time farming. It’s also possible, but farming generally requires working during the day, and running errands to deliver things can also be done at night, you can choose according to your own situation.”

Wu Wei thought about it. He still had to take care of his own land during the day. His younger sister was only eight years old. Although she could do some simple jobs, not all of them could do them. So he said, "Then I'll choose to run errands in the evening."

Maizi: "Yes, there's been a lot of errand work recently, because the sea ban has been lifted, and the fishing boats are about to start working. When the fishing boats come back in the evening, they need to send the goods to the store, and then bring the fishing gear that needs to be replaced back to the fishing boats. Although there are many goods , but to provide flat cars, your task is to ensure that the goods are delivered safely and on time, is this job up to you?"

Wu Wei didn't expect to actually get a job. After thinking about it, he replied, "I can do it."

"Okay." Maizi took out another notebook and began to record: "Wu Wei, I choose the job of transporting goods by fishing boats. The time is every evening, and the work duration is one week. After the completion of the review, the salary will be paid. The salary refers to your salary. .Our helper will take [-]% of your labor as an intermediary and supervision fee, and if you agree, sign or pledge on this paper."

Wu Wei was in a daze, only understood the last sentence. He pressed the ink pad and made a handprint where Maizi pointed, then walked back dizzy. Before he left, he heard Maizi shout: "Remember the pier at Youshi tomorrow." Assemble, don't forget."

Does this work?On the way back, Wu Wei still felt unreal.

The next day, after finishing the day's farm work early, Wu Wei tidied up and came to the pier.

A lot of people have gathered at the pier, and people like him join in one after another, some with a blank face like him, and some who look like veterans.

Wu Wei picked an experienced person and walked over to ask: "Brother, are you also a helper?"

"That's right." The person who was asked said, "The people gathered here at this time are all helpers."

Wu Wei: "Then how long have you been working, big brother?"

"Not long, but I came here as soon as the assistant manpower was established, and I should be considered a veteran. You are new here, so I will teach you to be good. You must do the work assigned to you, and the better you complete it, The higher the level you are in the assistant manpower."

"What's the level?" Wu Wei wondered.

"It's the level. For example, when you just came here, you are the lowest level, so you can only rely on luck to get a good job, but if you have a higher level, you can choose a job first, and the high level can lead the low level work. Today All the people here deliver goods to different stores, and I, as a high-ranking person, lead two people to be responsible for the delivery service of Jiqinglou, understand?"

"Oh!" Wu Wei understood: "Then what shall we do next?"

"Don't worry, the person in charge of the helper manpower dock area will come over and organize everyone into groups."

Just saying this, the person in charge of this area came over.

"Jichang, you're here." The high-ranking elder brother grumbled, "You're so slow, are you going to steal it again?"

Wu Wei looked at the person in charge named Ji Chang, his face was covered by a mask and he couldn't see clearly, his back was a little hunched, he was tall and strong, and he felt full of oppression.

The person in charge named Jichang ignored them, took out a notebook from his pocket, and began to group names one by one.

"Wu Wei, Qi Yu, follow Wang Wu and go to Jiqing Building to deliver the goods."

Wu Wei heard his name, so he stood up, and another person came together with the high-ranking brother just now to form a group.

After reading the name, Jichang announced the precautions, similar to what Brother Wang Wu said just now. After that, everyone got busy on different fishing boats according to their own groups.

With Wang Wu leading the team, Wu Wei only had to follow orders and do things. He was tired, but he didn't bother.

The moon was in the middle of the sky, and the three returned the flat car to the helpers. Wu Wei dragged his exhausted body back home.

Grandma had already fallen asleep, but his younger sister Wu Qin was still waiting for him with her eyelids open. Wu Qin was mending clothes by the candlelight.

At the age of eight, other people's children were playing around on the street or lingering around their parents, but Wu Wei and Wu Qin had already experienced the hardships of life.

Parents and grandpa passed away, elder brother did not return from the war, and grandma sometimes went crazy and woke up. These two children just carried the heavy responsibility of the family on their immature shoulders.

"Brother, are you back?" Seeing Wu Wei enter the door, Wu Qin put down her work: "How about a part-time job?"

While washing up, Wu Wei replied: "It's very good. It's to deliver aquatic products to Jiqinglou. Someone will take them along the way, so just follow along." Putting down the square scarf in his hand, Wu Wei remembered something: "By the way, my Team leader Brother Wang said that girls can also work part-time, doing laundry and sewing."

"Really?" Wu Qin's eyes brightened: "I am so young, would anyone want me?"

"Hmm... It seems that you can get on the job after training. You are small and you don't have to work hard, but you probably don't have a lot of money."

"Brother who is not in the way, as long as you can earn money, you can reduce your burden, and you don't have to be so tired." Wu Qin quickly packed up and went to sleep: "Brother, take me to see it tomorrow."

Wu Wei spread out the quilt, blew out the candles and lay down: "I don't have time recently. I have to do field work during the day and go to the pier at night. Don't worry. Wait until I'm dazed and touch some doorways before you go, no in a hurry."

After working like this for seven days, Jiqingtang’s work was over and the last day was over. Before going home, Wang Wu told Wu Wei: “Tomorrow Maizi will send someone to verify your work performance and completion status. You have time to go to the headquarters the day after tomorrow. Pay your wages."

The day after tomorrow, Wu Wei finished his farm work early, and asked Wu Qin to clean up quickly, and took him to the assistant's headquarters, in the tent next to Jiqing Hall.

It’s still Maizi, writing in a thick notebook, with a seven or eight-year-old child sitting next to him, crackling his abacus.Wu Wei walked over, his tone a bit uneasy, he didn't know if he could get the ideal salary with his performance: "Brother Maizi, I... come to collect the salary."

"Wu Wei, wait a minute, I'll look it up." Maizi took out another notebook as he said, and it was obvious that his memory was very good. On that page, read: "Wu Wei, Jiqingtang will deliver the goods for seven days, the team leader will be rated as A, the customer will be rated as A, and the comprehensive rating will be A, and the seven-day salary will be [-] yuan. Come on, Wu Wei, here Draw a deposit to get the money below."

Wu Wei didn't hear anything else clearly, he only understood the last two hundred words, and he was stunned for a moment.

Two hundred texts?

For seven days, only for a short while at night, there is actually a salary of [-] Wen?

That's equivalent to half a month's income before, all day.

Both Wu Wei and Wu Qin were stunned, and Maizi cried for a long time before Wu Wei woke up and took the bet.

Maizi was not surprised by their reaction, and said: "As long as you are serious and responsible, as your grade rises, your salary will increase. How about it, do you plan to work part-time in the future?"

"Yeah!" Wu Wei blushed with excitement. With this income, he felt that his life seemed to be full of energy, so he pushed the girl forward: "Not only I will do it, but my sister will do it too. She I am eight years old this year, and I can do all kinds of housework, so you can arrange any chores."

Maizi lowered his head to inquire, at this time, a person came over, approached, and recognized Wu Wei: "Child, you are here."

Wu Wei looked at the man, bowed seriously, and said, "Thank you for introducing me to the job, you are my benefactor."

The second idiot returned the gift: "You're welcome, getting paid is the result of your own hard work, I'm just pulling the strings." He said and asked Maizi: "The address of the cake shop has been selected, and there are some places that I want to tidy up and change, you can tell me." Find some people."

"Who are you looking for, we brothers, you can use it as you like." Maizi disagreed.

"Helping manpower is busy right now. If I don't need any helpers, you're going to do odd jobs for me. Don't talk nonsense. Send me some people over in two days. The address of my shop is in Tianshui Lane." Finished, waved his hand and left.

After Ersha left, Wu Wei asked Maizi: "Brother Maizi, can my sister and I go to Ersha's place to help? I want to thank him, no money will be charged."

Maizi smiled: "Ersha's new store is about to open, it is probably just a small job of cleaning and repairing, it is suitable for you and your sister to go, I agree with the decision, the wages must be paid, as long as you are satisfied, then it will be settled , Tianshui Lane the day after tomorrow, just report to Xiangxiang Cake Shop."
