Chapter 70 Looking for a job
He has a delicate face, steady manners and smooth ways of doing things, which is somewhat inconsistent with his actual age. At his age, he should be energetic and sunny. Perhaps it is because his parents passed away when he was young, and he has to carry the burden of the family alone, which made him precocious and sensible. He has to support everything at home, which makes people feel distressed. Now she can understand why he can help Wang Tingting solve the pressure in life and work, because he has experienced it early on.
Jiang Shuya took a look at his yard. There were knocking sounds coming from inside. The yard was full of wood, sand and stones. Several people were building a house inside. A lot of long-unused things were cleaned out outside. Sun Qi was wearing gloves and an apron. Those things should have been cleaned out by him.
"Will we go to Shanghai later?" Jiang Shuya asked
Sun Qi smiled and said, "No, I'm going to find a job in Jinling so I can take care of my family. My brother is young and my grandparents can't control him anymore. He also needs guidance in his studies."
"Wang Tingting and I get along very well. I consider her a very good friend." Jiang Shuya said tactfully.
Sun Qi instantly understood what she was going to say. His ears turned red, but he still said calmly, "She came to Shanghai to see me a few days ago. I took her there to play for a few days. On the day she was leaving, she asked me if I liked her. I told her no, because I couldn't give her anything in my current situation. I haven't found a job yet, and my family situation doesn't allow me to do that. If she stays with me, she will only feel more wronged and it will be a burden to her."
"So you told her that you have someone you like, so that she would give up on you." Jiang Shuya asked again
Sun Qi was somewhat helpless, with a complicated expression, and said: "I think I can only say this, this is the fastest solution."
Jiang Shuya shook her head and said, "If you put aside the family factors you think are important, would you consider her? Or ask yourself if you are attracted to her at all."
"...I..." Sun Qi stammered and couldn't utter a word for a long time.
The two of them stood and sat silently. After a while, Tangtang in his arms became a little impatient. She refused to sit there all the time and pointed to the front, wanting to leave. Jiang Shuya glanced at him and said nothing more. She carried Tangtang home. At this time, she understood that Wang Tingting did not make her heart move. She thought that a boy like Sun Qi, who was considerate and gentle, had experienced the hardships of society, suffered hardships that ordinary people had not suffered, and relied on his own efforts to be admitted to a prestigious university in Shanghai. He not only had his own opinions, but also must have his own unique vision. Perhaps ordinary people would not be in his eyes.
Nowadays, every family is building illegal structures. For such a big project as building a house, Grandma Sun would definitely ask him to come back and take care of it. She would not be surprised at all.
In a blink of an eye, it was the end of November. The autumn chill came and winter was not far away. The autumn clothes in the stores had been replaced with winter new ones. Jiang Shuya took a few more photos and sent them to Software Avenue. Her sister Jiang Shuting had resigned and was now completely focused on running a purchasing agent online store. Chen Lin would sigh from time to time when she came home from get off work, thinking that she was now being wasted and her talent was wasted.
She had been doing clothing purchasing for more than a month. That day, she came to the mall early to take the fourth wave of photos. The MODA store manager brought her a cup of hot coffee with a smile on his face and said, "This month's sales increased by 20% year-on-year, a full more sales. It seems that this online store should not be underestimated."
Jiang Shuya took the coffee, smiled and nodded.
She had discussed it with her sister yesterday. The total sales of the online store in the past month reached 17. They each got 7800. This is just the beginning. It is already twice what an ordinary office worker makes. Jiang Shuya is very satisfied. She has taken on a few more men's clothing brands and is working on them together. During this time, she has been visiting various major brands, looking for opportunities.
I returned to Xixia Village as usual that day. As soon as I arrived at the bridge in front of my house by bike, I saw Sun Qi dressed decently, a well-fitting suit with a white shirt inside, which matched the suit well and looked well-structured. He was a little thin, giving the impression of being tall and thin. He was holding a briefcase in his hand. He turned around and saw Jiang Shuya. He was surprised for a moment, then nodded with a smile.
"You are in the center of Jinling now, why are you dressed so formally?" Jiang Shuya asked
"Yes, I have sent out a lot of resumes recently and I went for an interview today." Sun Qi looked helpless. From his expression, it can be seen that the result was not satisfactory.
"Have you tried Software Avenue?" Jiang Shuya asked again
"I have sent my resume several days ago, but there is no response." Sun Qi replied
No reply means no hope. Although their industry working in computers is very promising, it is really a drop in the bucket for Jinling City. It is not like a big city like Shanghai, where the development of electronic technology is at the world-class level. However, the best electronic technology development in Jinling City is only in those two companies. Many top students have been internally hired before they even get their diplomas, and there are not many opportunities for external recruitment. This is the case for Chen Lin and Jiang Shuting, who were internally hired before they even graduated.
Jinling City has a long history. Although it has the highest institutions of learning and a large number of talented people every year, this situation has led to a situation where there are more people than talent. There are also some other electronic technology companies that are not very famous. The Xiaomi and Xiaoxia companies are still picky and choose. Not only are their salaries low, but they also have to work overtime.
Jiang Shuya pointed at his file bag and asked, "How good are your computer skills? Have you taken any exams?"
Sun Qi didn't expect her to ask this. Holding the file bag, he said, "I was busy working part-time while in college. I worked to earn money whenever I had time, so I didn't have time to take the exam. Later, when I started working, I used my break time to cram for a while. Since I didn't formally register for the exam, I can only write an average level on my resume, but I believe my level is totally fine."
"What's your English level? Is there an eight?" Jiang Shuya asked again
She had heard before that her sister Jiang Shuting's English level did not reach the eighth level, but her computer level was very high. Although she did not enter Yiyun like Chen Lin, she was able to enter Software Avenue, which was not bad either.
"Which company is your ideal one?" Jiang Shuya asked
Sun Qi scratched his head, feeling a little depressed, and muttered, "Of course I wanted to join Yiyun at first, but the resume I sent out has now fallen into the sea. I also sent one to Software Avenue, but there was no response there either. The interview I went to today at the Jiangning company asked questions that had nothing to do with the job content. They must be dissatisfied with my answers!"
At this moment, Jiang Shuya realized that she had asked too many questions, and he had told her so much without any reservation. After all, she was not very familiar with him, but he was concerned about this matter like an older sister.
"Okay, I'm going back. I'll see if I can ask your friends around you and tell you if there's any news." Jiang Shuya left after leaving a word.
