Chapter 13: Tutoring Children, First Part-time Job after Rebirth
Chapter 13: Tutoring children, my first part-time job after rebirth
Before leaving, Tom left him a pager and his current address.
Clermont Apartments is an old villa that even now is something that ordinary people would not even dare to think about.
The dream of countless people.
The manager opened the door himself and saw Tom off.
Then he brought a large plate of fried chicken to Li Kang and a few others.
"You're welcome. Just consider it as an invitation."
"Yuqing, you can take a break now and talk to them."
Ye Yuqing sat on the sofa and took off the work clothes she had been wearing for most of the day.
The impressive figure inside was immediately revealed to Li Kang, especially her waist-to-hip ratio.
It's the best Li Kang has ever seen.
The girl from Hunan also has fair skin.
"Are you guys all coming to Shanghai from Yunnan to visit your relatives?", taking a sip of Coke.
Several people nodded.
"Do your parents here know about this?"
"Sister Yuqing, I plan to return to Yunnan after seeing my father in Shanghai."
Li Kang is somewhat different from the other 15-year-olds.
Have your own plan and be mentally prepared.
"Do you know where your father lives now?"
This is Li Kang’s problem now. He only knows his biological father’s name and nothing else.
The name Li Jianhua is also a very common name. There are probably hundreds of people with the same name in Shanghai.
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Don't they know either?"
Ye Yuqing looked at the others, and only Liu Lang responded: "I know my father's family. He sent a letter home ten years ago."
“Things may have changed between ten years ago and now.”
The address Liu Lang’s father sent a letter to last time was Lane 99, Shimen Road.
When Ye Yuqing heard it was an alley, she felt relieved.
"It's actually an alley. It's very likely that we can still find them."
Alleys are where most Shanghainese people live.
Even though Shanghai is already a metropolis, there are still many places in its remote suburbs that have not kept up with the pace.
It was only later that every household lived in a detached villa.
"Sister Yuqing, how do I get to Shimen Road?" Lin Meixia asked crisply.
When Ye Yuqing saw this pretty girl, she liked her very much and pulled her to her side.
"If you're not in a hurry, you can wait until I get off work. Then I'll take you there."
Li Kang agreed to stay and wait for her to get off work.
Other people in the store were delighted to see that Li Kang could communicate with foreigners very easily.
They all came over out of curiosity and took the initiative to communicate with Li Kang.
Some parents with children took this opportunity to ask Li Kang to teach their children English.
"Teacher Li, your English is so good, can you give my child some extra lessons now?"
After the young woman finished speaking, she took out a few hundred-dollar bills.
"Two hundred dollars an hour, is that okay?"
Two hundred dollars, she thought it was a good deal.
Nowadays, it is difficult to find foreign teachers even if you have money, and there are almost no students who are as good at English as Li Kang.
Anyway, Li Kang is fine, Meixia and Liu Lang are playing flying chess.
This simple board game is easy to learn and fun to play, and you will quickly get immersed in it.
At first, Lin Meixia stood by and wanted to learn a little.
"Brother Kang is so good, I can't fall too far behind, otherwise he will despise me."
But after more than ten minutes, the children were able to keep up with Li Kang's speed, and after practicing a few times, they mastered a few basic sentences.
Lin Meixia didn't learn it even though Li Kang took care of her. Liu Lang and his friends asked her to play flying chess, so she went.
"Ziming, is the teacher powerful?"
The child named Wang Ziming is about five or six years old. "The teacher is great, much better than the English teacher in my school," the child said in a baby voice.
"Then let Teacher Li tutor you from now on, okay?"
Li Kang didn't expect that the young woman would not let him go.
He is quite resistant to being a tutor for others all the time.
"Teacher Li, I am a full-time wife and my husband is a manager in a foreign company."
"I spend most of my time with my child, hoping to raise him well."
"If you're willing, I can increase your monthly salary.
You only need to teach Ziming once a week, and the monthly salary should be no less than 3,000 yuan."
Li Kang's heart skipped a beat, and he thought, "With only one class a week, there are only four or five classes a month, and I can earn more than three thousand."
Five or six hundred yuan for a class, these are too much profits.
Seeing that Li Kang was a little hesitant, Xu Meiqi thought that Li Kang was a little unhappy.
After all, such a genius is willing to guide his own children just because he is playing here.
Normally, the wives in their circle cannot find a good foreign language tutor even if they pay seven or eight hundred yuan an hour.
Their requirements are too high. Not only must the children be able to speak English fluently like Americans, but they must also have the knowledge to help their children understand American society and culture.
How many college students today can do this?
Xu Meicen put forward another very tempting condition.
"I know that Teacher Li may be a little busy, but if you are willing, I can introduce some friends to me. Their children are also eager for English talents like you."
"You can open a small class then, as long as my Ziming can also learn from you."
Li Kang was completely shocked by the efforts of Shanghai parents. "They want their children to take all-English courses when they are only five or six years old."
But think about it, her husband is a manager in a foreign company, so he can have this income to support her.
You only need to teach five or six classes a month and you can earn more than three thousand yuan.
It is almost equivalent to the treatment of employees in foreign companies.
At that time, even Tsinghua University and Peking University were scrambling to get into foreign companies, and there was a reason for that.
The salaries offered are almost the highest in the country and also the highest level in all industries.
"Well, I'm worried it will be inconvenient for me to attend class..."
Li Kang still wanted to refuse, even though the young woman was very beautiful and her conditions were very good.
"It's okay. I'll pick you up every time you go to class, okay..." Xu Meiqi finally used her natural advantage. When a young woman acts coquettishly, most people can't resist it.
Especially for a beautiful woman like her who is less than 30 years old.
Seeing that Li Kang finally agreed, Xu Meiqin took his hand and said, "From now on, I'll leave my son Ziming's English studies to you. If there's anything you need my help with, just tell me."
Li Kang was somewhat tempted. Xu Meiqin's husband was also a man of status and position in Shanghai. If he could use her connections to find his previous life's biological father, it would definitely be much easier.
After thinking about it, I decided not to mention it. I'll just keep it as a backup option.
If you can avoid asking for help, then do so.
Wait until you can’t find it.
If it's too early, it might damage his image. If his biological father doesn't want him in the future, or if his biological father's family conditions are too poor and he has a few children, he can still go out and make a living on his own.
The money I earned in two months in Shanghai was enough to cover the cost of my senior year of high school.
As for the predecessor, the remnant soul's obsession is only to see his biological father, and then it will dissipate.
He will be the new Li Kang in the future. He doesn't want to clean up the mess for his biological father's new family before he gets his biological father's love.
"It's time to get off work, let's go."
Li Kang tutored a child for two hours and earned 400 yuan.
It’s still easier to make money in Shanghai.
Before Xu Meiqin left, she told him, "I'll contact you when I'm ready."
I took note of his pager number.
