Chapter 9 Sell your job and wait for the fish to bite.



"Don't worry, I promise you won't suffer any financial loss."

As she spoke, Zhang Hongying went back to her bedroom and brought out a biscuit tin, having already made her point clear.

Jiang Si's job is an office job, unlike other jobs where you have to work as an apprentice for three years after you join the company.

In Shanghai, an apprentice's first-year salary is 16 yuan, plus 1.84 yuan for uniforms, totaling 17.84 yuan.

In the second and third years, the salary increased by 2 yuan each year, while the clothing allowance remained unchanged.

In the fourth year, after being officially hired and having their grade determined, the salary will reach 36 yuan.

Therefore, the saying "Long live 36 yuan!" has been circulating in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

As for how much the work can be sold for, there is no specific standard; it all depends on how the two parties negotiate.

However, there is a consensus that the selling price is basically 2 to 3 years' salary.

“Xiao Jiang, your current monthly salary is 28 yuan, which will amount to 1008 yuan over three years.”

"The cotton mill had good benefits. During holidays, they would give out fruit, meat coupons, cloth coupons, etc. If the salary exceeded 20 yuan, an industrial voucher would be given every month. All these things added up to about 30 yuan in benefits a year, and 100 yuan over three years."

"In addition, the wage difference between a full-time employee and an apprentice is about 288 yuan over three years, and this auntie will compensate you 300 yuan."

For no other reason than to spare her youngest child from suffering these three years, she had to repay Jiang Si for this favor.

Jiang Si's original price range was around one thousand, but she didn't expect the other party to be so sincere.

She didn't hesitate to refuse and readily agreed.

"Okay, Auntie, we'll do it your way."

"Okay, okay, it's settled then!"

Zhang Hongying nodded hurriedly, then opened the tin box and took out a pile of receipts.

"I heard you say you want to exchange for more tickets. Do you see any you want here? If not, tell me what kind of tickets you need, and I'll think of something for you."

Having a large family compound has its advantages. I can't say about other things, but you can still manage to collect receipts and such.

Moreover, apart from the youngest child, everyone in their family works for the government and receives a considerable amount of money each month.

Jiang Si took a look and found that the types of bills in this era were really diverse.

Forget about food coupons; she can grow food in her spatial dimension.

It seems we don't need the oil coupons. There's a "one-click oil pressing" function in the space, so we can just plant more rapeseed.

Finally, Jiang Si picked out some industrial coupons, soap coupons, toilet paper coupons, sanitary napkin coupons, and laundry product coupons.

These are all daily necessities, so she should buy more and store them in her room, just in case.

She also asked for a watch ticket; the watches she had were too eye-catching, and Jiang Si planned to buy a more ordinary one so she could easily tell the time.

Zhang Hongying: "Don't you want grain coupons, oil coupons, cloth coupons, etc."

These kinds of receipts are all in high demand; she's been saving them up for almost half a year.

“That’s enough, Auntie, I still have some left,” Jiang Si said.

Today she got a lot of cloth coupons from her scumbag father, and there was also a lot of unused pure cotton fabric in Shen Qingqing's room, which was enough for her.

As the two were talking, a noise came from the doorway.

It was Section Chief Zhou's voice.

Zhang Hongying immediately ran to open the door with a happy expression, and told him about the job transfer. However, Section Chief Zhou frowned when he heard this.

"Xiao Jiang, these days jobs are all one-person-one-position. Once the job transfer procedures are submitted, it will be too late to regret it."

“Going to the countryside is no joke. Are you sure you can handle the hardship?”

He was tempted by the offer of a permanent position, but he was unwilling to bury his conscience for it.

After hearing these words, Jiang Si couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

A stranger could do such a thing, but her biological father never considered her life or death, and only wanted to coax her to the countryside!

"I'm sorry, Section Chief Zhou, I was forced to say that this morning. Actually, I had no intention of going to the countryside."

"Furthermore, I have given this job transfer a lot of thought, so please rest assured."

"After I finish dealing with these things at home, I will leave Shanghai."

Seeing her serious expression, Section Chief Zhou didn't say anything, but simply told his wife not to let the young girl suffer.

"What are you saying? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Zhang Hongying handed the prepared money to Jiang Si.

Jiang Si didn't stand on ceremony and counted the money in front of the couple. After deducting the receipts she wanted, she received 1220 yuan.

Next, the two parties signed another agreement and pressed their fingerprints on it.

After finishing her business, Jiang Si sat for a while before getting up to take her leave.

"Uncle, Aunt, I'll be going now."

"Xiao Jiang, have dinner before you go. I made braised pork. I didn't add a drop of water. I braised it with Shaoxing wine for two hours. It smells so good."

Jiang Si smiled and said, "No, Auntie, I have some things to take care of at home."

Seeing that she was determined to leave, and that it was getting late, Section Chief Zhou and his wife did not try to persuade her any further.

Just before leaving, Zhang Hongying took a lunchbox from the cupboard. It was a new lunchbox she had just bought last month and hadn't used yet.

She filled a whole box with braised pork and handed it to Jiang Si, saying, "Take this home and eat it. Don't be shy."

Jiang Si couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to accept it.

But she didn't go back immediately; instead, she found a state-run restaurant.

When we came out, those 'fish' had already shown their heads; we had to give them some time to bite.

Unfortunately, when Jiang Si finished her meal at a leisurely pace and returned home, the house was still exactly as it had been before she left.

However, Jiang Si wasn't in a hurry at all. After all, it was only the first day, and she felt that these 'fish' wouldn't keep her waiting too long.

After all, the allure of 10,000 yuan is still quite strong.
