Chapter 418: A huge sum of money was paid for translation



Early the next morning, the materials Jiang Li requested were delivered to Shen Changan's home one after another.

Shen Changan had already told her the negotiated price and the deposit paid last night. Jiang Li only needed to pay the balance.

After the items were delivered, Jiang Li immediately arranged for two aunts with whom he had often worked to help with the work.

The money earned from digging in the fields is not much, but working with Jiang Li can earn several dollars a day. The key is that the more you work, the more you earn, which stimulates their enthusiasm for work.

The work of washing and peeling the yam was outsourced to the aunt in the village. Jiang Li only needed to do some preparatory work, which made her life much easier.

At this time, Lai Erniang also volunteered to come and help, and Jiang Li simply handed all the chores to her.

With Lai Erniang's intelligence and talent, she can master many things after being taught only once.

After a few more studies, she was completely proficient.

Lai Erniang is someone Jiang Li trusts. She only needs to grasp the most important steps and let her do everything else.

Jiang Li always adds a little space spiritual spring to the pastries he makes. This will make the taste better and the pastries will also have the effect of strengthening the body after eating.

This time the pastries were in larger quantities. Jiang Li outsourced almost all of his work, and finally even asked someone to come to his home to do the packaging. It took a total of three days to prepare 1,000 kilograms of pastries.

All the pastries were packaged, and Shen Changan found a truck to help deliver them to the provincial capital.

After arriving in the provincial capital, Shen Changan arranged for people to receive and deliver the goods. Because it was Jiang Li's business, Shen Changan did it particularly seriously.

Throughout the whole process, he contributed money and effort, and tried his best to get things done. His main purpose was to completely isolate Jiang Longtao from his little thoughts.

In Shen Changan's view, he has to do everything for his woman himself so that others will not find an opportunity to take advantage of her.

Jiang Li is so outstanding that it is inevitable that some young people in the village who think they are outstanding will want to take advantage of her.

Although Jiang Li had no plans to get married and looked down on them, Shen Changan felt uncomfortable whenever they looked at him.

Shen Changan saw Jiang Longtao wandering outside the yard several times and wanted to meet Jiang Li by chance, but Jiang Li, who was now obsessed with his translation career, rarely went out.

In addition, Jiang Li no longer makes pastries, so even if Jiang Longtao wanted to come in, he couldn't find an excuse, so he could only watch from afar at the door.

His two arms had recovered long ago, and his body was healthy again, but he looked obviously much more haggard.

All of this was seen by the careful Shen Changan, and he felt secretly happy.

Jiang Li belongs to him alone, no one else can get involved!

They also have a child, and now more and more people know about this, which means his position is becoming more and more stable.

Every morning when Shen Changan went to work, his steps were floating because his heart was too inflated.

Especially the intimate interactions every night. Although they didn’t go to the final step, we could still touch each other gently, and I enjoyed it enough every day.

He has been taking cold showers recently, and his physical condition has been getting better and better.

The only regret was that his parents kept the household registration book very closely and locked it in a safe, so he couldn't steal it even if he wanted to.

The inability to make Jiang Li his legal wife in a short period of time is Shen Changan's only regret at the moment.

Another week passed, and the publisher gave Jiang Li feedback on the translation materials he had sent earlier. The feedback was that the translation was done quickly and professionally, and this time the manuscript fee could be settled at the rate of 50 yuan per thousand words.

Jiang Li spent half a month translating a total of more than 30,000 words.

After settlement, her total income was more than 1,600 yuan.

The money was quickly converted into a remittance, and the postman delivered the remittance slip to the door the next day.

Jiang Li only needs to take the remittance slip to the post office to withdraw the money.

Jiang Li was extremely excited when she received the remittance slip. She had worked hard for more than half a month and earned more than 1,600 yuan.

What did this mean in the 1970s when the average salary was only 20 or 30 yuan?

This is equivalent to Jiang Li using his professional knowledge to earn more money in just over half a month than others can earn in 10 years!

Jiang Li took advantage of the fact that not many people knew English in the 1970s, and she was very professional.

She only needs to work hard for one year to earn more money than others can earn in their entire life.

This is something that no one can envy, because many people find it difficult to even pass the English test, let alone get a full score.

Many people's English level is only half-hearted. Even if they can do the test, their English is just dumb. They even stumble when talking to others.

Jiang Li was different. When she traveled through time, she had already studied English for more than ten years, and she had been majoring in English for four years in college.

She has passed the professional English level 8, and her vocabulary is amazing. She can also speak fluent English.

She originally planned to be a translator after graduation, but because the English language is so widely used in the modern society where she lives, the translation jobs are quite saturated.

She was able to find a job but it was not ideal. Finally, by chance, she became her own boss.

In her time, her English major was the equivalent of unemployment upon graduation.

That was in the 1970s, when her expensive things became popular.

Jiang Li doesn't like English that much, but if she can make money by translating materials, she can reluctantly like it.

Because people who have suffered always understand one thing: it is not hard work if you can make money.

After receiving the translation fee, Jiang Li's wallet was instantly filled with money, and she immediately went to buy a lot of delicious food.

Jiang Li prepared a table full of delicious food and invited the captain and his wife to have a good meal.

He owed them too much, but they didn't want money, so Jiang Li could only invite them over to enjoy the delicious food every time he cooked.

Just like the 1,000 kilograms of pastries he made last time, Jiang Li generously gave them 10 kilograms so that they could eat enough at once.

The captain's family was in high spirits during the meal, and Jiang Li also had a smile on her face the whole time. After the meal, Aunt Yao took her hand and asked her what good thing had happened?

Jiang Licai stammered and told others that he had translated materials for a publishing house in the provincial capital and earned some translation fees.

Jiang Li didn't dare tell them the real amount, and even took the initiative to reduce it by 10 times, only telling them that he earned 160 yuan.

Aunt Yao excitedly hugged her arm and kept praising her for being so great.

Jiang Li felt embarrassed by the compliment and lowered her head shyly. Even at this moment, she did not forget to praise Shen Changan as well.

“It was Shen Changan who introduced me to the translation job. Otherwise, with my status, I wouldn’t be able to get access to such a job.”

“It’s certainly a help for Shen Changan to introduce you to resources, but you have the ability and can do it yourself, which is also your own strength!”
