In her previous life, Ye Jin was pure and kind, but she was schemed against by her stepmother and stepsister, which led to her losing her eyesight and being forced to marry the neighborhood rogue.<...

Chapter 45 Your Reward

"Ye Jin, is it really you?"

Ye Daqiang shouted in surprise. Ye Jin was startled. When she looked up, she saw that the father in her memory had indeed aged a lot.

"Dad, are you back?"

The Chinese New Year is approaching, so it is normal for Ye Daqiang to come back at this time.

"You damn girl, where did you get these chestnuts?"

Ye Daqiang didn't even say hello to her, he just started cursing.

"It's someone else's. I help sell it to earn some pocket money."

Ye Jin would never admit that these chestnuts belonged to her, let alone admit that she was the boss of these people.

"I told you, you're not cut out for business, and you don't have the ability to do this!"

Ye Daqiang's face showed an expression of "as expected". At this moment, Ye Jin didn't dare to take the money. She winked at the little yellow-haired boy, and the little yellow-haired boy came to his senses and took the initiative to take over the job of collecting the money.

Ye Jin pretended to help them pack with oil paper, and looked like a handyman.

"Yes, yes, I have no skills, so I can only do odd jobs to save some change, and it's all to reduce Dad's burden."

Ye Jin greeted her with a smile, but Ye Daqiang rolled his eyes at her. Although he didn't like her, he didn't want to ruin her in front of so many people.

"It's not appropriate for a girl to be out in public, but if the pay is right, it's okay to do it occasionally. By the way, how much can you make working here in a day?"

Ye Daqiang asked tentatively, this girl is very cunning, she must not be allowed to have money in her hands, otherwise she will become disobedient.

"I can't work a full day, only half a day at best, sometimes just two or three hours. I'm not sure how much I'll make, it depends mainly on my boss's daily revenue."

Ye Jin guessed what Ye Daqiang was thinking and deliberately didn't give a precise answer.

"What's the minimum? What's the maximum? There has to be a range, right?"

Ye Daqiang was already getting annoyed, and Ye Jin gave the little yellow-haired boy another look.

"Oh, uncle, this is usually 50 to 80 cents, it depends mainly on the performance."

The little yellow-haired boy was forced to do something and had to speak up.

Getting so much money for half a day's work is not only not outrageous, but also a very high salary when converted. Ye Daqiang believed it.

"How many days have you been working here? You must have saved quite a bit of money."

Ye Jin stepped on the little yellow-haired boy. The little yellow-haired boy had been in society for so long and had some common sense, so he quickly responded.

"Uncle, this is her first time here, and she's still a little unfamiliar with the place. Her first-day salary won't be that high."

The little yellow-haired boy answered both questions well, and Ye Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Daqiang was a little unhappy. He pointed at Ye Jin's nose and ordered, "Hand over every penny you earned today. If you give me even a penny less, I'll break your legs."

"Okay, Dad."

Ye Jin had never dared to disobey any of Ye Daqiang's requests since she was a child, so she naturally responded obediently.

"Come back early after selling your things. If you come back before 12:00, I'll save lunch for you. If you come back late, you can eat outside."

After saying this, Ye Daqiang staggered away with his luggage bag.

Business is still going on and is getting more and more popular.

The coal mine is not small in scale, with a total of almost 500 employees and leaders.

Those coming and going included not only coal mine workers, but also nearby residents, and more importantly, other people who had heard the news from the steel and glass factories.

Although Ye Jin was in disguise, the squirrel standing on her shoulder was unique. People couldn't see her face, but they recognized her squirrel.

Soon Ye Jin was surrounded by the crowd, but fortunately the little yellow-haired boy was very good at maintaining order.

With their help, Ye Jin sold 500 kilograms of chestnuts in just one morning.

A pound of chestnuts costs two yuan, so 1,000 pounds of chestnuts costs 1,000 yuan.

After work, a group of people collapsed on the ground due to exhaustion.

"It's been really hard today. It's harder than robbery."

"Doing business is worse than robbery. I am exhausted and sweating in the middle of winter."

"I had to smile at them, and my cheeks were cramping from smiling so much."

Several people were complaining, and Ye Jin took out a handful of money from his pocket and generously gave five yuan to each of them.

"Thank you for today's work. This is your reward. Don't think it's too little."

Several hooligans took the money in astonishment. The little yellow-haired boy couldn't help but ask, "5 yuan for half a day's work?"

"Why? Do you think it's too much or too little?"

These people were just standing there stupidly, with no expression on their faces. Ye Jin couldn't see through them, but he didn't feel guilty either.

She earns more because of the costs she pays, and she deserves the money.

"A lot, a lot. When we're unlucky, we can't even grab that much money in a few days."

"I suddenly realized that making money through serious business is also quite possible."

"If I could earn 5 yuan a day, I would do anything!"

There was a glint in everyone's eyes. After all, they were all energetic young people. Who would want to be lazy and live in fear of their future every day?

"I'll give you 5 yuan, will you eat shit?"

Seeing this group of useless brothers, the little yellow-haired boy couldn't help but sing a different tune.

As soon as they heard about eating feces, everyone pursed their lips and kept silent.

"If you guys were able to perform like this today without anyone supervising you, I wouldn't mind giving you 5 dollars a day to help me sell things."

Ye Jin is not a stingy person. She gave Ye Xiaoli a 10% dividend. The 5 yuan she gave to these people seemed like a lot on the surface, but to her it was just like giving alms to beggars.

"We can definitely do it, sister. If you want to sell anything in the future, just give it to us. Just don't miss out on the 5 yuan reward."

The little yellow-haired boy was eager to try, but Ye Jin just glanced at him indifferently.

"Although I have this idea in mind, whether we can cooperate long-term depends on your performance."

"As long as sister gives us a chance, we will definitely perform well!"

The little yellow-haired boy saw hope and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Ye Jin asked them to hand over all the money they had just collected, and counted it again personally to make sure there was no problem before letting them leave.

"Sister, when will you do business next time? Can I bring my brothers to help?"

"As long as you behave yourself, of course you can!"

The prerequisite is to find out whether these people have really turned over a new leaf, and their family information must also be collected.

Only those who are trustworthy can be hired, and those who are not trustworthy can only find other ways.

A few people had just left, and Ye Jin was squatting on the street, hugging something to keep warm. When he lowered his head, he saw a pair of leather shoes on the ground.

"Are all the peanuts sold out? This is pretty good speed for your first time in business."

Ye Jin was generous with his praise, and Gu Yan felt relieved to hear it.

"They're all sold out. Here's 1,000 yuan. Please keep it."

As for the expenses for allowing customers to try it out and paying the gangsters' salaries, he paid for them himself.

Ye Jin took the money and took out 10 Great Unity banknotes from it and forced them into Gu Yan's hand.

"Thank you for helping me so much. This is your reward."
