"Ten yuan! I'll do it, I'll remember the time."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhang learned that there would be work for half a year, earning ten yuan a day. As long as he didn't rest, he could earn three hundred yuan a month. Although he didn't earn as much as selling sweet potatoes, he had nothing to his name right now, so this was already excellent.
Xiao Zhang wanted to help with the work, but Xianglian had already taken away and washed the bowl of noodles he had finished eating.
"I'll give you ten yuan first. After all, you're doing manual labor, so you need to eat well these next few days."
Yang Yufen took out ten yuan and stuffed it into Xiao Zhang's hand; they were old acquaintances.
Xiao Zhang almost couldn't hold back his tears again. True friendship is revealed in times of trouble. If he weren't so down on his luck, he would definitely want to recognize Aunt Yang as his godmother.
Xiao Zhang was reluctant to leave. If he wasn't worried that his current appearance would affect the store's business, he would have liked to stay and help.
"Want some ice cream?"
Professor Wen and several children came out after participating in an activity and happened to hear someone hawking ice cream.
"Grandma, I don't want to eat it. Can you give me the money I used to buy ice cream? I want to buy something else."
Liwen rubbed his hands together, feeling a little embarrassed. But his father hadn't been home lately, his mother was very busy, and he didn't want his grandmother to know, so he didn't ask her for money.
"Grandma, I don't want to eat either."
Even Li Wu, the glutton, resisted looking at the ice cream and secretly swallowed his saliva.
"You kids have been acting all secretive lately, are you up to something?"
Professor Wen glanced at the children's expressions and recalled their recent antics.
Li Wu's eyes widened. How did Grandma find out? Li Wu looked at Li Wen.
"Grandma's birthday is coming up, and we want to give her a surprise."
Li Wen thought for a moment and then said, "There's nothing we can do. These kids have limited abilities, no, they have limited pocket money."
They also wanted to make money, but they had to attend classes, study, and train, leaving them with very little free time.
The only way to make money is by helping others with their homework. However, Liwen and Liwu are both just starting elementary school, and all the other children in their class can do their own homework, so Wang Xing is the only one who can make money.
As for Hu Zhenghao, he's just started junior high and is still adapting to a bunch of new subjects. It would be great if he could just finish what he started.
However, the teacher discovered this money-making project in less than two days. Because the accuracy rate was too high, Wang Xing even imitated the children's handwriting, but unfortunately, he still wrote the answers according to his own habits.
They did consider selling the scrap, but anything that was still even remotely useful, or anything the adults thought they might need in the future, would be collected, leaving them nowhere to pick up scraps.
"So what kind of surprise do you want to prepare?"
Professor Wen was very curious.
"Grandma likes gold!"
Li Wu immediately spoke up.
"How much money do you have? Gold isn't cheap right now."
“We don’t want to buy gold; we want to make a silver comb for Grandma. We’ve been researching this for a long time.”
Li Wen spoke.
"Hmm, not bad. You know how to compromise and do what you can. You still have to eat this ice cream, but Grandma can't give it to you directly. After all, you're the ones preparing gifts for your grandma. Grandma can help you find a job to earn money, it just depends on whether you're afraid of hard work."
