Chapter 96 Yan Jiecheng's Scheme
Although Yan Jiecheng was anxious, he knew that work was no small matter and that it couldn't be discussed in public.
Therefore, the words that were already on the tip of their tongues suddenly changed;
"There are too many people here, why don't we go into your room to talk?"
Li Qin understood Yan Jiecheng's thoughts at a glance;
He did not refuse, but nodded;
They then returned to the room, and Yan Jiecheng followed them in.
To be honest, this was Yan Jiecheng's first time entering this room.
I thought that since Li Qin lived alone, and was a man, his room wouldn't be so messy or smelly.
It certainly won't be very neat.
But after entering the room, Yan Jiecheng realized he was wrong.
Li Qin's room was not only very clean, but also extremely tidy, with no trace of dirt or mess.
There wasn't even a trace of odor.
Reflecting on the state of his own room and comparing it to the room before him, a feeling of shame and inferiority immediately filled his heart.
"Jiecheng, you can tell me your questions now."
Just then, Li Qin spoke up.
Li Qin's voice drew Yan Jiecheng's attention. At that moment, he remembered his purpose and immediately put the matter in the room aside.
"Li Qin, my dad told me you found a job at the steel rolling mill, is that true?"
Yan Jiecheng looked at Li Qin with a complicated expression.
At this moment, his eyes held expectation, doubt, envy, and jealousy...
Yan Jiecheng both hoped the news was true and false:
If that's true, he'll have a chance to learn from Li Qin how to get a job at the steel rolling mill;
If it's fake, then he won't need to worry about being compared to Li Qin, who also works odd jobs.
"It's true, today is my first day at work."
Li Qin nodded.
Even if Li Qin hadn't said anything, Yan Jiecheng already knew the answer when he saw the brand-new factory uniform on the other party.
Li Qin's current answer has effectively eliminated any remaining hope.
Yan Jiecheng then continued to press for answers:
"Li Qin, how did you find a job at the steel rolling mill?"
Upon hearing his question, Li Qin looked at Yan Jiecheng with a strange expression.
Yan Bugui asked a similar question last night, but Li Qin brushed it off with Mandarin.
I thought the matter would end there, but unexpectedly Yan Jiecheng came to me early in the morning and asked similar questions again.
Just as Li Qin was about to make up an excuse to get through this, Yan Jiecheng spoke up again.
"Li Qin, I know the significance of a job representative at a steel rolling mill, so I won't ask for nothing. If you can tell me how to get into a steel rolling mill, I can also get a job there."
"Then I'm willing to give you my entire first year's salary as a token of my gratitude."
Although Yan Jiecheng was also cunning to the core, he, who often worked on the streets, knew that Li Qin would not reveal such important information without paying a price.
This can be seen from his father's experience last night.
After a night of thought, Yan Jiecheng came up with this method.
This is equivalent to exchanging a year's salary for a job in a steel rolling mill.
Normally, people start as apprentices in steel rolling mills, and their wages in the first year are definitely not very high.
It's only two hundred yuan at most.
Two hundred yuan can buy a stable job.
It must be said that Yan Jiecheng's calculations were quite shrewd.
Li Qin instantly figured out Yan Jiecheng's scheme.
Although both were scheming, Yan Jiecheng's methods were much more respectable than Yan Bugui's.
Most importantly, it's Yan Jiecheng's attitude.
Originally, Li Qin did not intend to say too much, but seeing that Yan Jiecheng was quite sensible, Li Qin thought for a moment and then slowly spoke;
"Jiecheng, in this courtyard, you and I are the closest people, so I don't need to lie to you."
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, Yan Jiecheng's face immediately lit up with a look of delight.
He naturally knew that he was getting a great deal by exchanging a year's salary for a job.
But there was nothing he could do; even if he wanted to give Li Qin too much, he couldn't.
After handing over his odd jobs to his family, he really couldn't save much money.
I thought Li Qin would make a request, but to my surprise, he didn't, and he seemed genuinely willing to tell me what he wanted to know.
Yan Jiecheng immediately sat up straight, pretending to listen attentively.
Looking at Yan Jiecheng's expectant face, Li Qin knew very well that the other party would be disappointed later.
However, he still intends to discuss work-related matters appropriately, saying what he can:
"Jie Cheng, you should know very well what a steel rolling mill means. Do you really think I can get a job without putting in any effort?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng immediately had a bad feeling.
However, she did not interrupt Li Qin, but continued to listen to him.
"To tell you the truth, I bought my job."
As soon as he said this, Yan Jiecheng's expression froze, and then he looked at Li Qin in disbelief.
At this moment, he felt a sense of shattered hope.
However, Yan Jiecheng quickly realized a problem and immediately asked:
"You say you bought your job, but I'm just doing odd jobs, so I can roughly guess how much you earn."
Where did you get the money to buy a job?
Yan Jiecheng said this not for any other reason than to find loopholes in Li Qin's words so that Li Qin would tell the "truth".
Yes, Yan Jiecheng still refused to accept what Li Qin had just said.
He suspected that Li Qin was unwilling to tell him how to get a job at the steel rolling mill because he thought the pay was too low.
Li Qin naturally hadn't guessed these thoughts of his.
However, since Yan Jiecheng has asked, Li Qin can conveniently fill in the gaps in the matter of work.
After a brief silence, he began to recite the excuse he had prepared beforehand:
"A workstation in a steel rolling mill costs at least 500 yuan, and to secure it 100%, I paid 600 yuan."
But like you said, I certainly don't have that much money myself.
Yan Jiecheng also knew about the situation at the steel rolling mill workstation.
Five hundred yuan is the normal price for a steel rolling mill workstation.
However, workstations are extremely sought after, practically priceless. To truly secure a workstation...
It will definitely have a premium.
Hearing that Li Qin spent 600 yuan to get the workstation, it made sense.
At this moment, Yan Jiecheng became even more curious about where Li Qin's money came from.
"Of course I don't have that much money myself, so I used a similar method to what you just did."
Li Qin suddenly looked at Yan Jiecheng and revealed a strange smile.
Yan Jiecheng, however, was somewhat puzzled.
I don't understand what Li Qin meant.
Li Qin seemed to understand the confusion in Yan Jiecheng's eyes, and then explained:
"I told someone that I would use my salary for the next few years to buy a job at a steel rolling mill, and that after keeping enough for living expenses each month, I would use the rest to pay off my debts."
"Until the six hundred yuan is paid off."
