Dad Academy

Chapter 664 Turtle Immortal (12)

"Your accent always sounds a bit like someone from Xiangxi?"

In the kindergarten, Zhang Tan and Luo Zikang's grandfather sat together and chatted while basking in the sun.

Luo Zikang's grandfather always focused on Luo Zikang. The little bald man had just had a big quarrel with Xiaobai, and now he ran to watch the small class game. Xiaomi and Xi'er were comforting the angry Xiaobai.

"I grew up in western Hunan." He looked back and sighed in response to Zhang.

"No wonder, is the business in the store okay?" Zhang Tan continued to ask. He knew that Luo Zikang's family was a snack seller and worked part-time as a midnight snack.

"You don't have to worry about food and clothing."

"I often hear Luo Zikang compliment you, saying that the skewers you make are particularly delicious."

"I was a chef when I was young, so I have some basic skills."

"Are you in Pujiang?"

"When I first arrived in Pujiang, I worked as a chef to take root in Pujiang."

"Then you must be very good at cooking Hunan cuisine."

"It's just average. It's actually not that good. People here in Pujiang don't eat much Hunan cuisine, so I had to learn local cuisine. But not long after, the boss asked me to be responsible for purchasing, so I stopped learning."

"As for purchasing, it should be easier and the treatment should be better."

"What's good, the salary is not as high as that of a little chef. When I was shopping at the market, I met many buyers from other restaurants. When I asked about it, I found that their salaries were high and they had a lot of oil and water. I can't do this, and the boss is very strict. "

"The boss is a shrewd person, and there is no one who is not shrewd in doing business."

"He is not shrewd. He is a very good person and treats others very easily. The shrewd one is his wife, a tall and thin beautiful woman. Although she is beautiful, she is quite mean. We are all afraid of her."

"The boss lady will always be on guard."

"She is too defensive. In order to avoid being greedy for money in procurement, she changes positions every once in a while. No one can do it for a long time."

"Then you haven't done any purchasing? Why have you been there?"

"I left. One time when I was riding a three-wheeler to buy groceries, it overturned and knocked over several boxes of eggs. The boss was kind-hearted and saw that I had no money, so he decided to let it go, but the wife of the boss refused and gave me a month's detention. My salary was not paid, so I was asked to leave.”

"What did you do after you left?"

"It was so hard to find a job. After wandering the streets for a few days, I met a fellow villager who helped the captain fish on a fishing boat and introduced me to work with him."

"You went fishing?"

"I fished for several days and I kept vomiting. I really couldn't do this job. The captain saw that I was willing to work hard, so he kept me and asked me to be responsible for killing fish in the store."

"Brother Kill the Fish."

"The stench is so bad that I can't wash off the fish smell on my body after get off work every day. My grandson said he can still smell the fish smell."

"Haha, actually no, I can't smell it."

"I've killed so many fish that I've had this smell for the rest of my life. It's ingrained in my bones."

"I see there are many calluses on your hands."

"Isn't it? Many of the fish scales have not been washed off and have grown into the flesh, which is why they are like this."

"How long have you been killing fish?"

"Been working for more than a year."

"And after that?"

"Then one day, a Hong Kong guy came to the store. He was a professional fisherman. He was going fishing in the mainland. He was really full and had nothing to do. He asked me if I would like to follow him and be his helper and guide. The salary was The salary was more than double that of killing fish, and I could travel all over the country and travel for free, so I went.”

"Hey, you've traveled a lot, right?"

"Basically all of China has gone away, specifically to places with rivers. We have been to many places that we cannot name."

"How long have you been doing this?"

"For more than half a year."

"What happened next?"

"Once I was fishing in a wild river in a deserted mountain. The water rose at night. Neither of us noticed it. When we found out, the river had already surrounded us. We quickly left our things behind and swam to the shore. We almost lost our lives. But fishing All my belongings were lost, and my boss was also frightened, so he said he would go back and rest for a while and call me again when he sets out next time, but we never contacted him again after that."

"Then you returned to Pujiang? What are you doing?"

"I went back to Pujiang, swept the streets, and worked as a cleaner."

"It's a bit big across the row."

"I worked as a cleaner for more than three years, and then I drove a sprinkler truck."

"You can still drive."

"Haha, I learned it."

"I have been driving for more than a year, and something happened again. I bumped into a good car, and the other party asked me to pay for it. Oh, I paid all the money I finally saved to the other person."

"You are on a business trip, and the company will pay for it, so you don't have to pay for it."

"Is this the case?"

"Of course there is, it's written in the labor law."

"No one told me at the time. I didn't understand. I thought that I was indeed the one who hit the car with my car, so I should pay compensation."

"Then you suffered a big loss."

"It's not like I suffered a big loss. Strangely enough, later on the boss, the one who drove the car, met me and recognized me. He introduced me to a job and I worked with him."

"What a coincidence? How did we meet?"

"I no longer drove a sprinkler truck, so I found a moving company to help people move. It happened that the moving company belonged to the boss. He recognized me and after the move was completed, he asked me if I would drive for him."

"Driving for the boss is a leisurely job."

"Leisure is leisure, but it's a bit boring."

"You haven't been working for long, right?"

"It has been open for half a year, and it was replaced during the Spring Festival."

"Why did you change such a good job?"

"The boss's daughter came back from studying abroad and said I smelled fishy and couldn't stand it, so she replaced me."

"What will you do after you change it?"

"I work as a gardener in his house. His house is really big, bigger than a little red horse. He needs someone to take care of the flowers and plants."

"Do you know how to do this?"

“It’s all learned by doing.”

"This job is not bad."

"It's true. I worked for five years. During this period, I got married, had children, and became a father."

"congratulations."

"My son's name was given by the boss."

"Is he Luo Zikang's father?"

"It's his brother."

"Does Luo Zikang still have an uncle?"

"As big as him."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"Yangzi is 5 years old now, and his uncle died when he was 5 years old."

"this……"

"It's harmful, it's all life. What is it called cancer? The name is so long. I don't even know the words. The person is just gone."

"I am sorry for your loss."

"Bad luck has come. My son has just passed away, and my boss is seriously ill. He has to go back to his hometown, so we split up."

"Then, what should you do?"

"I'm going to do salesmanship and sell insurance."

"...You've made such a huge leap."

The two had a lively chat, but it was interrupted. The kindergarten sports meeting was over. Luo Zikang came to see his grandfather. Everyone parted and went back to their homes.

"This old man has really rich experiences in his life." Shen Limin, Liuliu's father, said with emotion. He had been sitting aside and listening without interrupting.

"It's not easy for people at the bottom," Zhang Tan said.

Shen Limin nodded silently and watched Zhang Tan and others leave, thinking that maybe this was the reason why Boss Zhang wanted to open a late-night academy that lost money?

On the way home, Xiaobai muttered, still angry with Luo Zikang.

She can tolerate others not liking her and even beating her and scolding her, but she cannot bear to be betrayed.

She thought Luo Zikang had betrayed her. She worked so hard and sincerely cheered for him and his grandfather, but he came to laugh at her and show off to her after winning first place. What a bastard!

"Immortal~"

Xiaobai muttered this.

Zhang Tan was stunned for a moment, unable to figure out what this word meant.

However, this reminded Zhang Tan that he felt that Luo Zikang's grandfather looked quite like the Turtle Immortal in appearance, haha.
