Chapter 381 Sister, are you here to cause trouble again?
"Let's go, Xiaoruo, let's go there first and let him talk to the fellow villagers."
Seeing that Li Ye and Tan Min had something to say, Wen Leyu First, he took Fu Yiruo, who was interested in listening to the gossip, and left.
This is the thoughtfulness of Xiao Nizi. She never inquires into the details of Li Ye's affairs. If there is really something that she needs to know, Li Ye will naturally tell him.
After the two girls left, Li Ye asked Tan Min: "Lao Song and your brother-in-law are going abroad? Why didn't I know? Do you have any misunderstanding?"
Tan Min said that Lao Song and Wei Jiaxian were going abroad, and Li Ye instinctively didn't believe it.
After all, even if an employee resigns, he has to tell the boss in advance, unless it is the kind of boss who is greedy and unkind. Just holding back the bad news and giving it a surprise!
He, Boss Li, treats Lao Song and Wei Jiaxian as if he is thirsty for talent! But it’s definitely not thin. How could you not know anything?
But after hearing Li Ye's questioning, the dull Tan Min became extremely angry.
“How could it be a misunderstanding? One of the two idiots holds a tape recorder all day long and listens to ghosts chanting curses, while the other is an old and crooked person who spends all day researching how to get a visa.”
I grabbed them by the collar and questioned them, but they fooled me and said they wanted to learn from advanced international experience. Damn it, I didn’t even look at myself.”
Li Ye: “.”
Li Ye knew that Tan Min, who had a good family background, had always looked down on Lao Song and his brother-in-law, who were from black backgrounds, but there was something wrong with what he said. It’s so exciting.
Wei Jiaxian is already in his thirties, and Lao Song is already buried deep in his chest. Why is it strange that he is as obsessed with learning English as a young man?
At this moment, a stall-goer came over and picked up a bronze mirror from Tan Min's stall and asked for the price
"What's the price of this mirror?"
"Forty-five, no counter-offer."
The people shopping at the stall curled their lips: "How can there be no counter-offer in this market? Huh? Did you practice stalling the first day?"
But Tan Min replied stiffly: "It's not the first day, it's the seventh day. If you want to make a counter-offer, I won't sell it."
“.”
"Okay, I'll give you forty-five yuan. I wish you a prosperous business."
The customer was stunned for a long time, took out forty-five yuan and handed it to Tan Min, picked up the mirror and left.
After Tan Min took the money, he first put the money into the cash box, and then took out two ledgers.
He first took the first account book and started flipping through it. After turning to a certain page, he put an × after a line of words and wrote the number forty-five.
Then Tan Min wrote the words "forty-five" in the second ledger.
Li Ye's eyes had super vision, and he saw the words "Bronze Mirror of the Republic of China, Eighteen and Five Yuan" written on the first account book.
This is really interesting. Rats have their own way and cats have their own way. Tan Min’s main business is "reality". The purchase price is eighteen and a half yuan, and he will not bargain for forty five yuan. If he likes to buy, he will not Buy it, or get out if you don’t.
Seeing Li Ye staring at him doing the accounting, Tan Min said gloomily: "I don't know how to do business, but don't worry, I won't meddle with other people's money either.
This The stall was originally run by Duoxing, but now he is also obsessed with ghosts and takes things to pay homage to him at every turn. Respect those two Japanese teachers”
“I don’t have to watch the stall now. What if they learn from their experience and get into the crotch of the foreigners? What will I do to my two nephews? I won’t be able to leave anything for them to chew. Is it true? It’s pity that my sister is still raising two children in Dongshan”
"This~"
Li Ye secretly took a breath, a little surprised.
Li Ye doesn’t believe it if Lao Song goes abroad and will never come back, but look at who Wei Jiaxian, Duo Ye, and Lao Song are?
A defective product of compulsory education, a boring gourd who can't speak smoothly to others, a product of a private school that you don't even recognize, are all obsessed with learning English? Can you learn it?
Let’s not talk about what they are going to do. Is the collective will of this small group so concentrated?
This matter can be big or small.
To say that Lao Song still has a salary plus commission salary model, which is a lower level than Jin Peng and others. Now that his wings are hardened and he is unwilling to give up, will he remove the table and open another table?
In his last life, Li Ye watched a very popular TV show, and there was a man named Zhu Suosuo in it, so he followed his boss and switched jobs to work alone.
That boss is somewhat similar to Lao Song. They are both smart and ghost-like characters.
So Li Ye asked Tan Min: "I can't see Lao Song these days. How can I find him more conveniently?"
Li Ye decided to talk to Lao Song and ask him why he didn't talk to him, the big boss, about such a big matter.
Although I thought that Lao Song was both good and evil at first, judging from his attitude towards Wei Jiaxian, he should be a person who valued friendship and friendship.
But Li Ye believed that he had never been a traitor in his life. Ruthless, what if I misjudge this
Li Ye is determined to I aspire to be a worry-free CEO who can delegate power and let go, but if I want to win without worry, my subordinates must be reliable.
If they are unreliable, I won’t stop you. Just take the three ocean tolls, okay. There is no grudge between you and me. Otherwise, if you shoot me behind my back, I will have to dodge and move away, right?
Tan Min said: "Old Song doesn't see anyone during the day, but these days he always hangs out with the two devils near the zoo at night. It's not far from Chen Jinhua's noodle shop. If you go there at night, you can definitely see him."
"."
. . . . . . .
Li Ye first accompanied his sister and daughter-in-law to take a few films at Longtan Lake, and then went to Chen Jinhua’s noodle shop near the zoo in the afternoon.
Only then did he know what Tan Min meant by "hanging around".
Chen Jinhua first served three bowls of cold noodles to Li Ye, Wen Leyu, and Fu Yiruo, and then started chatting with a smile.
“Brother Song teamed up with others to open an English training class. Making money there is like hugging the leaves of a tree. People who come back from overseas have good brains and can see the ways to make money at a glance.”
“In the past few days, I have asked Xiaoyan to study when she has time. If there is a chance, let her take the TOEFL test. Although we come from a small place, we must have big ambitions. If we don’t try, How do you know you don’t have that fate?”
Li Ye was very surprised, because he remembered that it was the late 1980s when Yu Minhong started the English training class. He must have been forward-thinking when he opened the English training class in 1984. .
Of course you have to be bold, you might end up in trouble.
Presumably, the partner who returned from overseas is what Tan Min calls "the second devil."
If this is the case, I really don’t know if Tan Pin misunderstood Lao Song.
But didn’t Lao Song disdain foreigners?
【Interesting. 】
Li Ye did not ask about Lao Song in depth, but asked about Jiang Xiaoyan.
"Auntie, Xiaoyan told you that you also want to take the TOEFL test?" "She doesn't want to take the test, but she still insists on telling me that she wants to help me make the noodle shop bigger and stronger. If I just open a few noodle shops, I won't run them. Are you still using her for help?"
Chen Jinhua said angrily: "Besides, let's go. What's the future of a noodle shop? Is it comparable to that of an overseas student?
When my family had no money, I helped her go to college. Now that her family is better off, why can't she get a master's degree? Just force her to pass."
"."
Li Ye thought about it for a while and said with a smile: "Auntie, what you said is right or wrong. You are right to be willing to support Xiaoyan's education.
But if Xiaoyan is determined to study for a master's degree or a doctorate, that is not necessary. If you provide it, it won’t cost much, and opening a noodle shop may not be futile.”
“That’s not as good as an overseas student,” Chen Jinhua said persistently: “Xiao Ye, you have never seen anyone who has returned from overseas. , That style and knowledge are so impressive!"
Li Ye found it interesting and nodded: "Well, I'll go and see it tonight."
. . . . . .
The study class that Lao Song was instigating was two blocks away from Chen Jinhua's noodle shop, in an unused classroom of an elementary school. I don't know how they got the relationship to allow them to use it.
Because Jiang Xiaoyan was involved, Wen Leyu did not avoid it this time, but came with him.
The three of them arrived outside the classroom first and looked in through the window, looking for Lao Song and Jiang Xiaoyan.
But the first thing that attracted Li Ye was a middle-aged man in a shirt and trousers on the classroom podium.
He was giving a lecture in English and Chinese, and he was confused and confused. It was hard for Li Ye to listen.
[Can Lao Song understand this course? 】
Except for the teacher who was wearing trousers and a tie on a hot day, the most eye-catching person in the classroom was Lao Song.
He is really too conspicuous, because among the thirty or forty "students" in the classroom, most of them are young people in their twenties, and there is no old mother like Lao Song.
Moreover, Lao Song sat in the most conspicuous position in the first row, without caring about the eyes of the young people around him, showing the nature of a super social cow.
In addition, the second to last person in age is Duoxing.
But Li Ye felt a little strange when he saw Duoxing sitting in the last row.
After Duoxing helped get his old boss, Boss Hou, he expressed his intention to become a disciple of Jin Peng. Li Ye thought about it and asked him to follow Lao Song.
Because people like Duoxing have a "cunning and changeable" habit, it is more appropriate to leave it to the management of an old fox like Lao Song.
After Duoxing followed Lao Song, Jin Peng paid attention to him for a while. It is said that he performed well because he was a local householder and his ancestors were still the kind of people who carried cages and walked birds. He was able to make the best use of his antique business. .
But Duoxing obviously knows Lao Song now, so why are they sitting so far apart from each other?
Is there a contradiction?
Li Ye is thinking about it! The middle-aged man on the podium in the classroom suddenly looked over.
"Do those students outside want to listen to the class? If you want to listen to the class, come in directly. Don't stand outside and take the class."
"What do you mean by taking the class!"
Li Ye felt awkward hearing this, but he still entered the classroom, wanting to see if this training class was a gold medal or a pheasant.
But when Li Ye, Wen Leyu, and Fu Yiruo entered, they were about to sit down when they saw the middle-aged man on the podium pointing to the price list on the wall of the classroom.
"Several students please pay the training fees first. We don't allow skipping classes here."
Li Ye couldn't help laughing. He didn't know how many training classes he had been exposed to in his previous life. I’ve never seen anyone so anxious for money!
But after looking at the price list on the wall, Li Ye stopped laughing.
One week of training fee: 100 yuan/person.
One month training fee: 350/person.
In this day and age, when the average salary for ordinary workers is forty yuan, and for senior workers it is only one hundred and eighty yuan, the training fee for a week is one hundred yuan? Isn’t it equivalent to ten thousand a week in later generations?
Is this one-on-one personal training?
Gold medal training classes don’t have this price, right? This is a black shop that rips people off! Lao Song actually fell in love with this kind of business?
Li Ye turned cold and said indifferently: "Since the teacher wants to charge a fee, he has to let us try it out to see if it's worth it? It's against the rules for us to pay without even listening to this class. ”
"Audition? Is it worth it?"
Lao Song was about to stand up and speak, but the teacher on the podium pulled his tie and blurted out a flurry of English machine guns.
His speech was very fast and his pronunciation was vague. Li Ye tried his best to understand it, but he could only understand a few proverbs such as "Everyquiddeservesaquo," "Nopains, nogains", and the rest felt better than those from the capital. Even listening to the dialects of Guangdong and Guangxi makes me confused.
The teacher talked for two minutes, and then said with an incomprehensible smile: "Look, whether it's worth it depends on your level. If you don't understand this, then don't come to our training class." Well, let’s go to tutor in middle school English first!”
All the students around looked at Li Ye, their eyes were so complicated that it was embarrassing.
But Li Ye was sure that few of these people could understand what was just said. People with that level would not spend money to attend training classes.
For example, Wen Leyu.
When Lao Song wanted to smooth things over again, he saw Wen Leyu saying coldly: "You reversed the word order three times, changed two very different accents, and spoke at least four minutes. A unique proverb belonging to Britain and the lighthouse,"
"Of course, you can say that these are all tests for trainees, but..."
Wen Leyu pointed at the teacher on the podium. , shouted with a frosty face: "Who did you just call a country bumpkin and uneducated? Do you dare to say it again?"
"."
The teacher on the podium was stunned for a long time, then looked at Wen Leyu and smiled with twinkling eyes.
"Hey~, little sister, are you here to cause trouble? This is against the rules!"
