Chapter 5 How to Make Money
“How to make money?”
When thinking about making money, Su Yang's first thought was to go to the aristocratic family to apply for a job and worship.
For warriors, it is not difficult to make money. Just find a family to apply for a job and you can earn a considerable income every month.
Even if it is not good, he can apply for a guard. Although his income is not as good as a vocation, he is definitely a high salary compared to his previous job in a grocery store.
However, after careful consideration, Su Yang rejected this method of making money.
He must conceal the martial arts skills for the time being, otherwise the Black Tiger Gang will associate the disappearance of Wang Sanwu and others with him, and conflicts with the Black Tiger Gang will inevitably break out.
The head of the Black Tiger Gang is a real warrior. With his current strength, it is too difficult to compete with real warriors, so he cannot expose his martial arts skills to attract the attention of the Black Tiger Gang.
"You can't make money by applying for a vocational job, it seems that you can only apply for a handyman."
In the end, Su Yang decided to return to his old business and apply for a handyman.
Although the salary is low, the success is that he will not reveal his martial arts skills.
As long as he survives this period of time and becomes able to compete with warriors, he will not need to worry about the Black Tiger Gang and can quit his job and go to the aristocratic family to apply for a job.
Following the street, Su Yang walked towards the inner city and headed to the place where Heishui City recruited workers.
In an incense stick, he appeared in a huge square.
The square is paved with bluestone slabs, which is very old and has grown a lot of moss, and it has been a few years.
There are many people on the square, most of whom are pale and thin, sitting or lying down.
This is where people in the city who have no jobs look for jobs. Some shops, restaurants, and wealthy families that need to hire people or temporarily need them will come here to recruit people.
But generally the supply exceeds the demand, so most people may not be able to receive work if they wait for several days here.
Su Yang waited here for six days before finding the job of Zhang Ji grocery store handyman, but unfortunately he has been fired now.
I found a place near the entrance of the square and sat down, and Su Yang was waiting for the people who came to recruit workers.
After waiting for more than an hour, finally a recruiter arrived.
There were three people in the group, and the leader was a middle-aged man wearing a black brocade dress and black leather boots. His two beards were raised and he was obviously carefully taken care of.
The two followers who followed him were all strong and could see obvious muscle lines through his clothes.
Seeing the arrival of the three people, someone immediately surrounded him.
Su Yang's eyes lit up and approached the past, pushed the others away, and squeezed them to the front.
The middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the crowd around him with a sense of superiority, enjoying this superior feeling of looking down.
Many years ago, he was like these people, waiting for job opportunities in this square, and now he has become a person who gives alms.
This made him feel a strong sense of accomplishment and was proud of his struggle over the years.
"I am the butler of the Wang family in the south of the city. This time I came to recruit servants for the Wang family. There are five people in total, and I have a monthly salary of fifty copper coins and three meals."
The young man coughed and said.
"Master, choose me, I'm very strong!"
"Master, choose me. I haven't eaten for three days!"
...
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the people around him were excited, and even Su Yang could not help but feel that the treatment was not ordinary.
Not only do I have 50 copper coins per month for three meals, but I only have lunch with 30 copper coins in Zhangji Grocery Store, and my salary has been more than doubled.
If he can apply for the job successfully, his salary plus some support from his parents and sisters will be enough for his nutritional needs for his early martial arts practice.
"You, you, you."
The middle-aged man began to select people and pointed his finger at the selected person.
The person who was pointed at showed ecstasy on his face, while the person who was not pointed at his face was filled with loss.
The middle-aged man's eyes swept over one person after another and landed on Su Yang in the front row.
Su Yang occupies the front row, and it is difficult to not be seen. It is indeed beneficial to occupy the front row.
Seeing the middle-aged man looking at him, Su Yang felt expectation.
But to his disappointment, the middle-aged man's eyes swept past him and fell on another person.
"You, you."
The remaining two people were also selected, and Su Yang was not selected.
Long-term malnutrition made him weak and weak. Although he had already started practicing martial arts, today is the first day of practicing martial arts, so his figure naturally cannot change much.
What the middle-aged man wanted to choose was the kind of person who could do strength when he looked tall, so he was not selected.
The three middle-aged men left with the five selected people, but the ones who were not selected were dispersed with loss. Su Yang also returned to the place where he was sitting in disappointment.
From morning to noon, and from noon to afternoon, halfway through, Su Yang spent another copper plate to buy three meat buns for lunch.
More than ten groups of people came to hire people, but unfortunately Su Yang was not selected.
Among these more than ten groups of people, Su Yang met the shopkeeper of Zhang Ji's grocery store who fired him. The other party chose a young man like him as his partner to fill his original position.
The other party also saw him, but immediately looked away, as if he didn't know him. The other party obviously wanted to separate himself from him.
As time goes by, no one will come to hire anyone anymore. Su Yang leaves the recruitment square and returns home.
When passing a street.
"Charge protection fees!"
A shout came into Su Yang's ears, and Su Yang turned his head and looked.
Four fierce men walked into a shop and shouted loudly at the shopkeeper.
"Hurry up, I don't have time to rush with you. Damn, that guy Wang San didn't know where he died, it made me so bad!"
A strong man wearing blue clothes cursed and obviously was in a very unhappy mood.
His name is Li Biao, and he is the small leader of the Black Tiger Gang like Wang San.
Originally, collecting protection fees this month was Wang San’s job, but I didn’t expect that Wang San didn’t report to the gang today.
The protection fee was not collected and he could not wait for a long time. The leader arrested the strong man who happened to be in the gang and asked him to collect the remaining protection fee for Wang San General.
Although I didn't want to agree, I didn't dare to refuse, because the leader hated the most was the person who "rejected".
Once, there was a small leader who bargained for the task arranged by the leader, which made the leader unhappy. He was seriously injured by the leader's punch and lay in bed for three months.
"It must be because he was drinking high and sleeping in some girl's bed. It's not the first time that Wang San's leader has done this."
A big man smiled and showed a smile that everyone understood.
"I'm here to collect protection fees for him, but he is lying in the girl's bed."
The more Li Biao thought about it, the more unhappy he became, and cursed.
"Damn, this matter cannot be forgotten. When I collect protection fees next month, I have to let him take care of me."
"Yes, he has to make up for it."
All the three great men agreed.
Li Biao was unhappy, they were also unhappy.
Li Biao was arranged to replace Wang San to collect protection fees. They who belong to Li Biao's direct subordinates also had to follow him. It is certain that they were unhappy.
When Su Yang heard the conversation between the four people, he felt aroused.
It seems that the disappearance of Wang Sanwu and others has not been suspected yet. They thought that the five were going to drink wine and forgot the time.
Of course, the distance should be not far from being discovered.
If the King Sanwu and Wu still do not appear tomorrow, the Black Tiger Gang will probably have suspicion and start an investigation.
After collecting the store's protection fee, Li Biao and the other four walked out of the store.
Su Yang's eyes couldn't help but fall on the bulging cloth bag in Li Biao's hand.
It's so bulging, it's like a big stone, and the money in this cloth bag will definitely not be less.
"What are you looking at? Believe it or not, I've dug your eyes!"
Su Yang's eyes falling on the wallet were discovered by Li Biao. He was angry and scolded.
There was a big disagreement and he planned to take action against Su Yang.
Su Yang quickly withdrew his gaze and left as if he was "escape".
"You guy runs fast!"
Seeing Su Yang running away in fright, Li Biao laughed at him and ignored him.
Walking to the next store immediately caused the shopkeeper to panic.
He didn't notice it, and when the four of them walked into the next store, Su Yang stopped in the distance and looked at the wallet in his hand again.
"Black eats black!"
At this moment, a bold idea popped up from Su Yang's mind, which was to rob the Black Tiger Gang and rob the protection fee of the Black Tiger Gang.
If it were him before, he would never dare to have such thoughts.
But after gaining Zhong Ba's memory, his knowledge was expanded, and his ideas could not be changed.
If you want to get money, you don’t necessarily need to work or rob. No, it should be said that you are making ill-gotten gains.
Moreover, doing this not only allows you to get money and ensure your nutritional needs for martial arts practice, but also has the advantage of diverting the attention of the Black Tiger Gang.
Let the Black Tiger Gang focus on the issue of the loss of protection fees and reduce the attention to the disappearance of Wang Sanwu and others.
