Xiaoqi and a few others went back to the dormitory together. On the way, Yunshu talked about taking the driver's license test.
Mier said she wanted to go with us.
Seeing that Wei Cheng didn't say anything, Yunshu took the initiative to ask Wei Cheng if he would like to take the exam together.
It costs more than 4,000 yuan to get a driver's license.
Wei Cheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to apply too. There are a lot of work-study opportunities posted on the campus forum. I've registered for a few. If I'm selected, I should be able to raise enough money for tuition quickly."
"Okay, I'll pay for you first. You can give it to me when you have enough money, or you can pay it to me in installments. It's up to you." Yunshu said.
Xiao Qi didn't rush to help. After hearing what Wei Cheng said, she asked curiously, "Are there other things like this on the school forum? I thought it was just all kinds of gossip."
"Yes, there's a work-study section. You can check it out. You fill out your information, and if they think you're a good fit, they'll call you and ask you to come over. I got a part-time job last weekend, and it was quite interesting. Someone was hosting a dinner party and needed temporary waiters. The pay was quite good, three hundred a night. I don't know why waiters prefer college students. Anyway, you just change into their clothes and follow their work. It's nothing special. The jobs listed are more formal, and students have been screened. Those informal ones won't be listed."
Wei Cheng ranked third because she couldn't fully concentrate on her studies. She had to spend a large part of her time working part-time to earn money for her studies. She has three siblings and her parents are just mushroom farmers. It is really difficult for her to study solely relying on her family. On the contrary, there are many opportunities in school, and it is much easier for her to make money than her parents. She doesn't even want her parents to send her living expenses now, as she also wants to earn enough tuition for the next semester.
Of course, there are many opportunities to make money in school, and the expenses are also not small. No matter how hard Wei Cheng works, she is still just an 18-year-old girl. Buying new clothes and accessories, and going out to play with classmates are all essential. It is not a matter of vanity, but basic self-esteem.
Xiaoqi understands Wei Cheng very well. Although she has participated in many competitions and won a lot of prize money, she shares the same idea with Wei Cheng when it comes to the issue of work-study programs.
Her parents had a very hard time making money. They dug 100 kilograms of spring bamboo shoots in their hometown, carried them from the deep mountains for dozens of kilometers, and finally earned 20 yuan, or 2 cents per kilogram of bamboo shoots.
These twenty yuan are really hard-earned money. Compared to that, there are many opportunities for work-study programs in school, and it is much easier to make money. You don’t have to go through crooked means. As long as you are willing to work, you can support yourself. Xiaoqi thinks this is great.
Although she had a system, she would buy a house and convert the money in the system into fixed assets when it accumulated to a certain amount. In fact, she didn't spend much herself.
So even though he has a lot of money now, Xiaoqi is still willing to work part-time to keep himself in the best condition, study hard, and improve every day.
After hearing about this forum mentioned by Wei Cheng, Xiao Qi logged in to take a look when he returned to the dormitory. There were really a lot of opportunities there. Xiao Qi selectively registered his information because different jobs have different requirements.
Xiaoqi's conditions were slightly better. She didn't have to choose those waiter jobs, which would not help her much. Instead, she chose some tutoring jobs. She became a tutor during the summer vacation and found that being a tutor was really good. Not only did she teach and help others, but it also improved herself greatly. If she hadn't taught Jiajia and others in English during the summer vacation, she would not have been able to learn it so quickly and so well, because being a tutor brings both pressure and motivation.
Teaching and learning benefit each other.
There was a tutor who wanted to teach calculus and English. The pay was quite high, 500 yuan per class, but the requirements were also very high. Xiaoqi was good at both of these, and she was also planning to take the postgraduate entrance examination. It never went wrong to study more, so she filled in her profile and her English and calculus midterm exam scores.
I feel there is still great hope.
There was also translation work, so Xiaoqi filled out his information and signed up, not in English, but in Japanese.
However, she did not take the exam and did not have a certificate, so she could only post an audio clip of herself reciting in Japanese.
Another interesting thing is a part-time job at an auction. Xiaoqi also filled out the information. The salary is not high, but Xiaoqi has no idea about it. He thinks it would be good to learn about it if there is an opportunity.
There were also some jobs like golf course caddies, tennis partners, and so on, all kinds of jobs, including game training. Xiao Qi took a quick look and felt that they were not what he was good at, nor was he very interested, so he didn't fill it out.
I selectively filled out some information, left my phone number, and then turned off the computer.
Start practicing calligraphy.
After practicing calligraphy for half an hour, I felt completely calm and then I lay down to sleep.
Taking a half-hour nap at noon will make you more energetic for afternoon classes and your brain will work much better.
For the computer practice class in the afternoon, you need to go to the laboratory building and leave early.
The people in the dormitory started to get dressed after their lunch break.
At this time, Xiaoqi's cell phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. Xiaoqi picked up the phone and heard the voice of a female aunt. She spoke in a cheerful voice and said she was looking for a tutor. She was quite satisfied with her profile and asked if she could come over on Saturday.
On Saturday morning, during the day, Xiaoqi originally wanted to buy a house, but she thought that buying a house would not be done in one day, so next week would be fine. She nodded and agreed, and the other party said that he would send her the address later.
Xiao Qi hung up the phone, and sure enough, a text message came soon with the address in the urban area of Meng City.
A bit far.
But there is no need to be picky about making money. Even if it is a bit far, it is much easier to earn than with her parents at home. She is still willing to go and replied with two words: Got it.
The roommates were very curious to see that Xiaoqi had found a part-time job so quickly.
"Every time I apply for these part-time jobs, it takes a day or two to get a reply. I didn't expect Xiaoqi to be so quick." Wei Cheng said.
"Maybe the other party is in urgent need and we just happened to meet them." Xiao Qi also felt that it was a bit fast. The efficiency was really amazing.
However, since the first one he filled out was quickly approved, Xiaoqi was very curious about the other two.
As a result, when it was time for dinner in the evening, the application for Japanese translation was rejected. Although Xiaoqi uploaded the audio, the other party still needed a grading certificate. Without the certificate, it would not work.
Regarding the application from another auction house, they did not call Xiaoqi, nor did they show a rejection. I don’t know what the result was.
This kind of waiting really makes me feel a little itchy and anxious.
After finishing his meal, Xiaoqi packed up and went to the playground to run. After running several laps, he felt refreshed as he sweated and no longer thought about the matter.
In fact, you can also go to the horse farm to ride a horse. Both running and riding are very relaxing. However, these two days, Xiaoqi is a little embarrassed because of what the president said before. It just so happens that the coach is on vacation, so Xiaoqi doesn’t plan to go this week. Let’s talk about it next week.
In the evening, when Xiao Qi went to the Spanish elective class, he saw that Li Weijin was already there.
This time, Xiaoqi sat directly at the table behind Li Weijin.
After sitting down, I poked him on the back with a pen and asked, "I remember you have a make-up exam, right?"
Li Weijin said seriously, "I've discovered that I like Spanish. I've decided to take this elective and have already signed up."
Xiao Qi: ...
As long as you are happy.
The bell rang, and the thin Aizhen came to class wearing a plaid cheongsam. She was too thin, and the cheongsam made her look even thinner, like a stick of firewood. But she must like this outfit very much. She looked very happy when she came today, and her smile was even warmer when she saw the boys and girls sitting in the front, behind and behind the desks.
Aizhen did not talk about Spanish poetry today, but introduced one of the most famous buildings in Spain, the Royal Palace of Madrid.
Xiaoqi was very surprised. She had just read it in the morning, but she didn’t expect the teacher to explain it in detail in the evening.
Aizhen still used English for introductions, and used Spanish when it came to Spain. In this way, I learned a lot of words and sentences without realizing it.
Xiaoqi's entry-level Spanish level does not mean that she can speak it immediately, but that she has reached this level and will get twice the result with half the effort in learning. She still needs to learn.
Xiaoqi listened carefully and followed the teacher's slide show to gain a deeper understanding of the Royal Palace of Madrid. Located in Madrid, the capital of Spain, it was formerly the Babenberg Royal Palace. It was burned down in 1734 and rebuilt in 1736 by Philip V and his wife Isabella to become the current Royal Palace of Madrid.
Aizhen then told the story of Philip V and his princess. Teacher Aizhen is a very romantic person, and ordinary stories become very romantic when she tells them.
As for Li Weijin, he is good at listening to English and can barely keep up with the pace, but learning Spanish is more tiring. Fortunately, his family fully supports his study and even said they have found a tutor for him. He decided to make up for it on weekends and he will definitely catch up with Xiaoqi.
Xiao Qi ignored the classmate Li Wei Jin in front of him and listened to the class seriously. Today's classmate Li Wei Jin did not smell like ginseng. As soon as he sat down, Xiao Qi smelled a very pleasant lemon scent, the kind of lime scent. Then, it felt like freshly brewed green tea and mint, cool, but this coolness seemed to have the taste of Chinese medicine. Xiao Qi didn't know the name. The aftertaste of these flavors actually had the sweetness of sugarcane, the woody fragrance of cedar, and the taste of rum.
Li Weijin's perfume smells so good. The top, middle, and base notes are all different. Xiaoqi, a student with a super sensitive sense of smell, feels quite energetic in class after smelling this complex and lingering scent. It seems that the teacher's lectures are more colorful. I really want to ask him what perfume he is wearing today...
