Chapter 247 Anyone who doesn't go is a fool
Jiang Tian told her classmates that she would find new part-time jobs for them once Uncle Hu’s construction site was completed, and she was not joking.
When the Foreign Languages University branch of Fang Jie Fast Food Restaurant had just opened, Jiang Tian asked the class monitor to help count how many people in the class were willing to work part-time at the fast food restaurant on Sundays.
"The main job is to wash and cut vegetables, wipe the table and wash dishes, serve meals and dishes to customers, etc."
"Part-time work at the store on Sundays includes two meals at noon and at night, plus 2-3 yuan in wages. If you're interested, hurry up and sign up."
As soon as Jiang Tian finished speaking, the class monitor who was in charge of counting the number of people was surrounded by his classmates.
Please!
That’s the famous Fangjie fast food restaurant in town!
Although it can't be compared with big hotels, it is also considered a relatively high-end fast food restaurant locally. If you want to have a good meal, it will cost at least 80 cents.
Now Jiang Tian told them that if they worked part-time in the store, they would not only get two free fast food meals, but also get paid.
And the work sounds easier than working on a construction site.
Anyone who doesn’t go is a fool, okay?
What the students didn’t know at this moment was that an even bigger surprise was waiting for them.
At noon that day, it was almost time for lunch, and suddenly a classmate came hurriedly to ask the store manager if he could pack their lunch boxes and deliver them to the classroom if their whole class bought lunch boxes in the store.
It turned out that after entering university, without the supervision of parents and teachers, classmates had a lot of fun during normal times, but at the end of the semester, they were all scrambling to review their lessons for fear of failing.
It's not that there's no time to go out for a meal.
The main reason was that I was afraid that as soon as I came out to eat, the classroom where they were reviewing would be occupied by students from other classes.
Moreover, the school teaching building is quite far from the fast food restaurant's gate. It takes at least an hour to go back and forth, including eating.
It's the end of the semester, every second is precious, okay?
As a result, fast food restaurants have added a new part-time job as a food deliveryman.
Soon, we discovered that the fast food restaurant at the school gate could deliver food directly to the classroom or dormitory, and more and more classes began to actively join in the order.
Fast food restaurants have regulations that if you place ten or more orders to the same address, you can waive delivery fees.
If there are less than ten copies, a delivery fee of fifty cents will be added to each order.
Jiang Tian does not earn this money, it is purely extra income for the classmates who run errands.
If the delivery is completed in full and reaches ten portions, the student who is responsible for delivering the food can still get an extra fifty cents on top of the fixed daily wages.
However, these 50 cents will be subsidized to the delivery man by the fast food restaurant.
The school is just across the street. I can earn an extra 50 cents for each trip. As long as I complete four orders a day, it is equivalent to getting double salary. Who wouldn't want that?
Not to mention the boys in the class, even many strong girls signed up to be "deliverymen".
Originally, they thought that the dozen deliverymen in the store were enough, but unexpectedly, someone spread the news that their store could deliver food, and gradually, even school teachers came to them to order food.
This shows how bad the food is in the cafeteria of the Foreign Languages University.
Fortunately, school canteens nowadays are not contracted out, but are run by the schools themselves with hired staff.
The canteen had no intention of making money from the students. It provides three meals a day, and its main focus is “don’t let the students starve to death.” Anyway, no matter whether there are more or fewer students coming to the canteen to eat, the canteen’s cooks and the aunties who serve food will not lose a penny in monthly salary.
They even wish all the students would go out to eat.
This way everyone can do less work every day, right?
Even the school leaders think that this newly opened fast food restaurant outside is pretty good.
At the very least, since the establishment of this fast food restaurant, there have been fewer complaints from teachers and students about the bad food in the cafeteria.
Originally, their new campus was moved to this godforsaken place, and the school leaders were almost scolded to death by this year's freshmen.
Unexpectedly, after the Fangjie fast food restaurant opened a branch opposite their school, the freshmen's curses and insults against the school leaders gradually disappeared.
Not to mention the students, even the leaders of the new campus, sometimes when they are too busy and miss mealtime, will ask people to go to the fast food restaurant across the street to pack a few lunch boxes and send them over.
Now, all the students in the class were so happy.
Liang Fusheng, the Chinese class representative, borrowed a 28-inch bicycle from a classmate and ran it there from noon to eight o'clock every Sunday.
On the busiest day, he earned more than ten yuan just by delivering food.
He almost turned the 28-inch bicycle into an invincible Hot Wheels.
There's no way, he really needs the money.
Liang Fusheng's mother is in hospital, and was beaten into the hospital by his father.
This wasn't the first time his dad had beaten his mom.
Since Liang Fusheng could remember, he would see his father beating his mother almost every other day.
When he is sober, he still knows his limits when slapping, pushing and shoving.
But once he drinks, his father loses all sense of propriety when he attacks.
The most serious incident was when he took a bench and smashed it on his mother’s head.
That time, if he hadn't pushed his mother, she might have been crushed to death.
This time, his father got drunk outside and came back unhappy for some reason, so he beat his mother until she was bleeding. If the neighbors hadn't heard the noise and came to stop them, his mother might have been strangled to death.
Because someone almost died, Liang Fusheng's mother was almost out of breath when she was sent to the hospital. The village did not dare to make Liang Fusheng's father take responsibility for this and reported it directly to the police station.
When Liang Fusheng found out about this, his mother had already been rescued.
This time, Liang Fusheng refused to listen to his mother no matter what and insisted on making his mother divorce his father!
Liang's mother was also terrified. She was used to being beaten over the years and never thought that the drunkard would actually strangle her to death.
After a near-death experience, Liang's mother couldn't guarantee that the drunkard would kill her with a knife the next time he went crazy...
Originally, she had gritted her teeth and refused to divorce, mainly for the sake of her son.
If Liang Fusheng was a girl, her husband might have asked her to take the child away when they divorced.
But Liang Fusheng was her husband's only son. Liang's mother knew that if it really came to the point of divorce, her husband would never agree to let her take her son away no matter what.
Liang's mother was reluctant to be separated from her son, so she could only continue to endure the domestic violence from her husband.
"Mom, can you please believe me for once? Even if the court awards me to him, I have my own legs, so won't I come to you?"
Liang Fusheng accompanied his mother to consult about divorce, but after checking, he found out that there was no record of Liang's father and mother registering their marriage at all!
Liang's mother was stunned: "We have a marriage certificate..."
The clerk at the Civil Affairs Bureau rolled his eyes and said, "The marriage certificate you wrote yourself doesn't count! Didn't we tell you all to come and get a new marriage certificate? Without a marriage certificate, you are not considered legally married, don't you understand?"
Clearly, it was an extremely impatient remark, but to Liang's mother and Liang Fusheng, it sounded like heavenly music!
