Chapter 238 Do you want to earn extra money?
"Captain Pu didn't agree? Fine, I get it. You don't even need to ask Ji Mo. I know him very well. He wants to study how to earn contribution points all day long. He definitely won't go to school, which is a waste of time."
Ji Zhenzhen said it confidently, as if she knew herself 100%.
An Jiu nodded: "Okay, what about you? Do you want to go?"
"Ah? Me." Ji Zhenzhen grabbed her hair and smiled awkwardly, "Actually... I don't want to go either.
"The main thing is that learning this kind of thing is useless. I saw a child in a client's home with a lot of books. Her mother said it would take several years to learn it! And she may not be able to find a job.
"It's not suitable for me. I follow the captain to work in the mine during the day. When I come back early, I go to Boss Zhang to do some private work. I can be considered to have a skill.
"Besides, Ji Mo said that as long as we are diligent, we can save some money, and life will not be too hard..."
At this moment, she suddenly noticed that her grandmother's face changed in her peripheral vision, and she immediately realized that she had said something wrong. She hurriedly scooped up the porridge and put the spoon into her mouth, her eyes rolling around, frantically thinking about what to say to make up for it.
"Actually, actually, going to school is pretty good. At least I can recognize words and won't be cheated by others... If I have enough time, I will also consider it. Although ghost painting is not easy to learn..."
"Well, I know that everyone has different choices. I won't force you to go with me," An Jiu smiled and said gently, "I'm just asking. The choice is still in your hands."
Ji Zhenzhen didn't dare to look at her grandmother and just smiled foolishly at An Jiu.
He picked up the bowl and gulped down the grass seed porridge. Finally, he put it down and wiped his mouth. "Come on, come on, you guys take a rest while I wash the dishes."
"You don't have to wash," Grandma stopped her, "I just heard that Captain Pu is back, you and Xiaojiu should go over quickly."
Anjiu stood up and said, "Let's go."
"Then shall we go first, grandma?" Ji Zhenzhen followed behind, looking back as she walked and stealing glances at her grandma's face.
An Jiu simply put his arm around her shoulders and said comfortingly:
"Don't worry, grandma won't be angry. She just can't accept it for the time being, but when she thinks about it later, she will find that what you said is right. Anyway, no matter what, it's all for the sake of earning more contribution points in the future and living a good life."
Only after hearing her say this did Ji Zhenzhen relax.
Pu Huai had indeed returned, with a large bucket full of water beside him and a large new cup on top.
He was discussing something with Ji Mo, and his eyes swept over An Jiu calmly.
Ji Zhenzhen dragged her to stand behind the crowd, so as not to stand in the first row and bear the great pressure~
After they exchanged glances, they remained silent.
"Calculate how much water is needed per day. Also, have you decided on the permanent staff?"
Ji Mo hesitated: "All the people who came to the scene have this intention, but we still need you, the captain, to make the final confirmation."
"Yes." Pu Huai glanced at everyone and said casually, "Priority will be given to those who have followed the team more than seven times. They will be ranked according to their task completion rate. Only fifteen people will be left as permanent members..."
Ji Zhenzhen whispered into An Jiu's ear, "You don't meet the requirements, do you?"
Anjiu hummed softly.
"How about I go and plead for you? By the way, does it conflict with your schooling?"
"The school notice hasn't come down yet."
"What should I do? I can't tell the captain about this. If I stay here permanently, I'll have to go to the mine with him every time. If you always ask for leave, the captain will definitely be unhappy. What if he takes his anger out on me... You should know that I'm quite afraid of him."
Ji Zhenzhen frowned and kept sighing in her ear.
It seemed that she was really scared.
An Jiu patted her hands and said, "It's okay. I'll just be a temporary worker. If there's work, I'll work. If there's no work, I'll go to school."
As they were talking, everyone present had finished collecting their information. Pu Huai checked the boxes for permanent residents based on their rankings, and Ji Mo was the one who finally notified them on the spot.
"We will gather at the same time tomorrow. Now everyone can go home."
The crowd gradually dispersed.
Ji Mo came over and called Ji Zhenzhen, saying that he had to go downstairs to remove rust from other people's doors in a while.
"An Jiu," Ji Mo said to her softly before leaving, "You go later and ask the captain for a spot."
Ji Zhenzhen's eyes lit up: "Did the captain ask you to tell him?"
Ji Mo didn't answer, but pulled her arm and walked out.
After the last person left, Pu Huai leaned lazily on the sofa and signaled An Jiu to come closer with his eyes.
Anjiu knew that he was going to talk about the water coupons, so she moved a stool and sat opposite him.
Pu Huai picked up the oversized water cup beside him and said, "Take this."
Anjiu took it. It was already full of water and was very heavy in his hand.
“Can I use the coupon?”
Pu Huai nodded, "Okay, there were just a few problems in the middle, and the communication took some time, but it should be much smoother tomorrow."
Anjiu knew that the staff must have never seen this kind of coupon and did not allow it to be used.
Fortunately, the first person to go was Pu Huai, so I was able to take a convenient ride.
“So there are restrictions on buying water?”
An Jiu looked at the water in the bucket and wondered if she would be caught if she resold the water on the black market.
As long as no one reports it, it should be safe.
However, if the quantity sold is too small, there is no need to bother with it; if the quantity sold is large, the risk will also increase accordingly.
If... we could get Pu Huai to join us, at least half of the problem would be solved.
Plus, he knows a lot of people, so his sales channels are wider...
Pu Huai: "Well, twenty contribution points will be enough to start the job."
"Captain Pu..."
Pu Huai looked at her quietly.
Anjiu's gaze drifted and landed on the bucket next to him.
"Do you want to make some extra money?"
"for example?"
"Like... let's go to the black market and sell water together?"
An Jiu observed the changes in his expression, and seeing that he did not show any obvious objection, he continued to speak carefully:
"Now you have a card, I have a card, we can sell water for a month, even if the profit is less, but mosquitoes are still meat, then we can improve the food, isn't it good, don't you think?"
Pu Huai's eyes were deep, and his fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest, again and again, silently and regularly, as if he was thinking about something.
Anjiu didn't say anything to interrupt.
Anyway, for her, she won't lose anything whether she tells this matter or not.
But if Pu Huai agreed, it would be like making a profit.
Pu Huai raised his eyelids, "How do you plan to divide it?"
——This is the temptation.
An Jiu knew that what she had thought of was something that Pu Huai would definitely have thought of with his intelligence. The reason he asked this was to see if there was any need to cooperate with her.
An Jiu quickly thought it out: "You take eight and I take two."
In this matter, apart from offering some ideas and discount coupons, everything else she did, whether in terms of sales or reducing risks, was all thanks to Pu Huai's favors. He deserved more.
Her goal is to earn money, not to wait until the coupon expires and get nothing.
Moreover, as long as Pu Huai is willing to take her with him, 20% would be a good deal for her.
——On the surface, the contribution value is very small, but what about the invisible parts?
In addition to water coupons, she also has other coupons. Some of them are useless to her, but not necessarily to others.
Even if she wanted to sell this kind of thing, she would have to be able to find a suitable buyer, right?
Everyone in the black market is equally poor, and they wish they could split their contribution points into two. But who can afford it?
Besides, she wants more than just these...
