"Yunfei, I just went out and asked around. There's a restaurant in the village that needs a waiter. The monthly salary is fifty yuan. I've already talked to the boss, and I'll start working tomorrow."
"You want to work as a waiter in a restaurant? That's...that's so low."

"I...I'll give it a try."
"Hehe... This is a contracted project. Each person has to dig a two-meter-long section of the irrigation ditch every day, and they can only stop working after they finish."
