The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 1182
[Chapter 1182 You are simply my noble person]
Although these two taels of silver are not much, it is good to be able to find a job now.
Some shops are only willing to give their clerks one tael of silver a month.
Just here, I don’t know how many people are trying to get there.
Two taels of silver is not too much, but it is not too little.
It’s a bit less road-building than before, but it also has the advantage that you don’t have to leave Kyoto Prefecture.
After finally being able to settle down in Kyoto Prefecture, there is no doubt that he is unwilling to leave Kyoto Prefecture.
Otherwise, it would not have been possible to delay it until now.
Now that you have an opportunity, you must take advantage of it.
After all, he himself didn’t know how many people the other party was planning to recruit.
So, he tried his best and pushed forward.
“I’m strong! I’ve built roads before! I can do it! I can do it!”
“Are you strong? All the gentlemen here are as strong as each other, and none of them is strong!” “You
can’t squeeze in any way! You can’t squeeze in any way! Do you understand that it’s first come, first served? Oh you!”
Everyone was pushing and yelling.
There is no way, everyone knows how important such an opportunity is.
No one wants to give up.
There are so many people here, probably estimated to be at least a thousand.
Even building roads does not require so many people. Building a city should be a problem.
Jiang San didn’t know what he thought of. He was slightly startled, turned to look at the person who just told him the news, and said in surprise: “What did you just say?” “What is Duke An Guo going to build?”
The man said, “Didn’t I tell you to build a new city?”
“New city?” Jiang San was completely stunned.
Building a new city is no small project!
The number of workers needed is astronomical.
In this case, what else is there to fight for?
No matter what, you will definitely be able to survive anyway.
After all, he was someone who had built roads before, and he knew how serious it was to build things in front of the group of scholars from the Engineering Academy and the Construction Academy.
According to their approach, if they want to build a new city, they must need 20,000 people!
In addition, there are still a lot of materials that need to be mined, a lot of money that needs to be prepared, as well as food, shelter, etc.
to build a new city. These workers are the first batch of people in the new city.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation are both indispensable and indispensable.
I’m afraid it won’t be completed in a year or two.
Thinking of this, Jiang San felt relieved.
He stood where he was and didn’t push forward.
Time passes minute by minute.
The front is still noisy as always.
However, the number of people is constantly decreasing.
Finally, it was Jiang San.
“What do you do?”
A steward asked, holding a charcoal pen and paper in his hand, looking up at Jiang San.
Jiang Sandao said: “Coolies can move bricks or build walls.”
After a pause, he said again: “As long as they work hard and don’t know how to do it now, they can learn it.”
The steward nodded and wrote down the coolie on the paper. Two words, and then asked: “What’s your name?”
“Jiang San.”
“How old?”
“Thirty-one.”
“Where do you live?”
“Sanjiaojiao in the north of the city.”
When the steward heard this, The expression on his face was a little surprised. He raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang San and asked, “Are you from Kyoto Prefecture? The accent doesn’t sound like it.”
Jiang San shook his head and said, “I’m from Zhongyuan Dongdao. I just came last year. Come to Kyoto Prefecture.”
“Then how can you live in the mansion on the third corner?”
asked the steward.
Although for people from Kyoto Prefecture, Sanjiao is not a good location, but it is still in the prefectural city.
One month’s rent is a lot of money.
If you don’t have a certain amount of money, how can you afford to live there?
If you have a certain financial background, why do you need to do hard work?
Jiang San naturally understood the reason why the manager asked so many questions.
What is the most important thing on this construction site?
Naturally, it is stable.
You can’t say that after two days of work, you felt tired, so you ran away and stopped working. At this time, everything has been arranged. Where did you ask the foreman to find someone?
There is no telling whether the person he found is reliable or not.
Therefore,
generally speaking, it is necessary to inquire clearly, and only those who have to do hard work will accept it.
In this case, once you leave the construction site, there will be no other place to go.
It is naturally stable enough and will not change much.
Jiang San looked at the steward, sighed and said: “I used to earn some money at the exchange and rented a mansion on the third corner. Now that the exchange is no longer available, I have to find a job.”
After a pause, he spoke again. Said: “I used to work on the construction site, building roads. I know all the rules. I won’t run away until the work is done.”
The manager looked Jiang San up and down, nodded and said: “Tomorrow at noon in Nancheng If you’re late, you won’t have to come anymore, understand?” When Jiang San heard this, he
nodded
hurriedly: “I understand!”
“Okay, let’s go down.”
Jiang San saluted hurriedly again, and then left.
At this moment, it is dusk.
The sunset shines on the ground, golden.
Jiang San felt inexplicably emotional.
As the saying goes, there is no perfect road. A car will find its way to the mountain, and a boat will go straight to the bridge. There is a village
with dark willows and bright flowers!
I never thought that I was about to give up.
God actually gave me another chance.
No!
This opportunity is not given by God!
But it was given by Anguo Gong!
If An Guogong hadn’t built the new city, how could he have the chance to stay?
Thinking of this, Jiang San showed gratitude on his face. Facing Duke Anguo’s mansion, he stood upright and bowed respectfully.
“Dong An Guo, you are simply my great nobleman!”
After sighing with emotion, he couldn’t help but want to go home as soon as possible to report the good news.
He wants to tell his wife that they don’t have to go back to their hometown in despair.
He found a job in Kyoto Prefecture again!
A full month of two taels of silver.
Food and accommodation are included, which saves a lot of money.
Two taels of silver is the most basic thing. You are strong and do a lot of work. Generally speaking, you can get another one tael of silver.
This works out to three taels of silver.
Three taels of silver.
The rent of the mansion is six taels of silver.
If you remove it, it will be three taels of silver.
Jiang San’s daily expenses include food and accommodation, and his son also has free meals at the liberal arts college.
It won’t cost much, let’s count one tael of silver in two months.
Calculated in this way, it is fifty taels of silver a year.
My one hundred taels of silver is enough to support me in Kyoto Prefecture for two years!
In two years, Jiang San is confident enough that the exchange will return to its former glory.
Even if he can’t return to his former self, if he works harder and is more tired, he can still barely make ends meet by doing more work on weekdays and earning some extra money.
one way or another.
There is still hope if you stay in Kyoto Prefecture.
Once you leave Kyoto Prefecture, it will be difficult to come back!
Although the money is not much.
But it gave Jiang San firm confidence to stay!
