Chapter 3 Study Aid
Although Cheng's father didn't understand this lay Buddhist's meme, it did not prevent him from understanding Cheng Chen's meaning. Therefore, he looked at Cheng Chen with a vigilant look on his face and said.
"How much do you want, stinky boy?" said Cheng's father.
"I have to take ten yuan a week, and I have to take the New Year's money at the end of the year." Cheng Chen directly expressed his purpose.
Cheng Chen proposed this price after careful consideration. If he put ten yuan in 2021, it would naturally be too little before Cheng Chen was reborn, and it would be enough to have breakfast. But now it was 2000, and in two thousand years, the pork was only more than four yuan per pound.
Although Cheng Chen didn't know exactly what his current salary was, he knew that his family was not rich for two thousand years.
After all, looking at Cheng Dad’s bell-bottomed pants, leather jacket and streetwear, and he never works properly, his family can only rely on his mother’s salary in the factory, and the environment at home where he doesn’t even have a TV, Cheng Chen roughly knows that ten yuan per week is a huge pocket money.
According to Cheng Chen's estimate, his family's family income will not exceed 1,000 per month, so it is reasonable to convert the first reward into ten yuan per week. As for the future rewards, it will naturally have to be calculated according to how much the system gives him.
"So much?" Cheng's father looked at his son in surprise and said.
"Not much, I'm all about learning and progress." Cheng Chen said seriously.
"Really?" Dad Cheng was a little disbelief.
"Of course it's true, learning is very expensive." Cheng Chen nodded.
"That's too much. I don't even have that much pocket money, and why do you, a child, want that much money?" Cheng's father muttered.
"Dad, you didn't seem to have made lunch for me today. If I come back tonight, I'm afraid it won't be good. And tomorrow will be the monthly exam..." Cheng Chen's little black hand touched his croaking stomach.
"Cough cough, I'll take you to have something delicious." Dad Cheng immediately coughed awkwardly, then pulled Cheng Chen and prepared to go out, without thinking about bargaining with his son.
After all, if Cheng's mother knew that he didn't give his son food today, he would probably not have any idea of getting into bed in the next three days.
"Wait, I'll wash my hands." Cheng Chen quickly broke free, then ran to the bathroom to wash his hands.
The toilet is as narrow as I remember, but Cheng Chen misses it a little, after all, it was the place where he lived since childhood.
"You guy loves to clean up." Dad Cheng complained, but he didn't stop him, but he called the system again while Cheng Chen was washing his hands.
"System, do you really give money?" Cheng Dad asked.
System: "Yes, you can get rewards when completing the task."
"That's good, otherwise I won't have the money to give this brat." Dad Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then prepared to agree to Cheng Chen's request after a while.
Cheng Chen, who was washing his hands, was immediately happy when he heard his father's words: "It seems that the first goal is achieved, if the task is the same."
Yes, Cheng Chen’s purpose of asking for money is to start saving money now, and the mission goal is the same as his goal of becoming a top student, so he can take the opportunity to go with the flow and kill two birds with one stone.
Cheng Chen had already thought about it. When he became a top student, he had a certain say, and when he completed more tasks and obtained more money, he would be easier to buy a house for himself after completing more tasks.
"It seems that my life goal of the landlord of the Demon City has been further improved." Cheng Chen wiped his hands and walked out.
After being reborn, Cheng Chen did not want to become a mediocre worker like he did in his previous life and endure the blessings of 996. Naturally, he would start to work hard to accumulate capital now, not to mention that he had such a golden finger.
"Although the one who is bound to me is my task, so there is still a lot of potential." Cheng Chen looked at his father and said to himself.
"Let's go." Dad Cheng greeted.
"Dad, what are you going to take me to eat?" Cheng Chen asked.
"Meat buns, don't you always say that the meat buns at the entrance of the village are fragrant?" said Cheng's father.
"So, Dad, do you remember?" Although Cheng Chen didn't remember whether he said it when he was a child, he was still a little moved when he heard Dad Cheng say this.
"I don't remember, your mother always said." Dad Cheng said with his ears.
"I'm moved." Cheng Chen glanced at his father in anger, and then walked out first.
"The little brat is still angry." Dad Cheng didn't even feel at all teasing his son. Instead, he walked out with a smile and closed the door.
Cheng Chen looked back at his house. It was a house mixed between two small buildings. It was not big, because the self-built house was extremely ordinary and even a bit unreasonable.
The kitchen is at the entrance to the first floor, but the washing pool is in the living room. The kitchen is as narrow as the toilet and can only accommodate one person cooking. Next to the living room is his Cheng Chen's room, and his room has a front door, which is the front door street.
The houses in the village are like this, one front door and one back door. Because of Cheng Chen's strong request, his family usually goes out through the back door, and only he can walk through the front door.
The second floor is Cheng’s parents’ residence, a large room and a balcony for drying clothes.
By the way, the toilet is located in the corner between the living room and Cheng Chen's room, so it is very small and there is only one toilet at home.
In fact, the room upstairs is big. Originally, Cheng's mother meant to let Cheng Chen live, but because the stairs of the self-built house were built very narrow, Cheng's mother was afraid that it would be unsafe for the naughty Cheng Chen to go up and downstairs, so she thought about it and moved it up by herself and Cheng's father.
The house next to the Cheng family on both sides is much better than the Cheng family. On the left is the Gao family, which runs a convenience store and opens water. His family has always had good conditions. His daughter and Cheng Chen have a school with different classes. On the right is the Wang family, which runs a noodle shop. Naturally, the conditions are better than the Cheng family. Therefore, both houses are larger than the Cheng family, so it looks like the Cheng family is sandwiched between the two families.
By the way, because of the lack of money, the kitchen was not ready when the Cheng family built the house, so the outlet pipe of the vegetable sink was directly exposed outside, with a bucket there, and they also needed to carry it to the garbage collection point at any time.
"Dad, why is this barrel in our house like this?" Cheng Chen pointed to the ceramic barrel at the door and asked in confusion.
"I don't know which lunatic stole my plastic bucket. I'm afraid it's sold it, so your mother took a ceramic one from the factory. Anyway, the ceramic ones can't be sold." Dad Cheng looked angry when he said this.
"Oh." Cheng Chen nodded, and at this time he felt like he was born in 2000.
After all, the plastic buckets are still very valuable at this time, and they are indeed easy to be stolen when placed at the door. Everyone is still in a shortage of supplies.
Because the bun seller was at the entrance of the village, Cheng's father took Cheng Chen and did not go to the Gaojia convenience store next door, but walked directly to the other side. This place belongs to the village, and there were not many people in the afternoon, so I didn't meet anyone along the way.
"I agree to your conditions, but can you do ten of them in this exam?" When I reached the intersection of the village, Cheng's father turned to look at Cheng Chen and said seriously.
"Of course it's okay, but it depends on your support, dad." Cheng Chen rubbed his hands and said.
"I have agreed to all the support strength and conditions," said Cheng's father.
"Tomorrow is Monday and the monthly exam, so the money..." Cheng Chen smiled at his dad.
"What? Are you going to reward now?" Cheng Dad said in surprise.
