too low.
After deducting the 3 yen monthly rent, the 4 yen monthly food expenses if you save a little, and the several thousand yuan for commuting, how much money will be left?
Not to mention helping the welfare home, he doesn't even have enough money to spend if anything happens.
No wonder young people go to Sapporo or Tokyo all the time. The economy of Otaru cannot be compared with these two places.
He can do these jobs by himself, but currently he still needs to support the welfare home.
After careful consideration for a while, Fujii Itsuki gave up the idea of doing these jobs.
When the staff at the Labor Bureau saw that he had graduated from Kyoto University, they suggested that he become a civil servant or a school teacher. The starting salary for external employment alone is over 25 yen.
Fujii Juichi asked what school it was and where it was.
As it turned out, the staff member’s answer was exactly the No. 1 High School in Jubei where the girl studied.
I wasted a whole morning and didn't get any useful information.
At 1:30 in the afternoon, Fujii Itsuki ate a bowl of ramen on the roadside and planned to go to the agency to have a look. They had more job information.
"Mr. Fujii?"
"Yes."
"You have good conditions and can work for a large company. Why are you only considering a monthly salary of 30?"
"If it's higher than 30, I will consider it if the conditions are right."
"Why do we have to consider Otaru? Can't Sapporo be considered?"
"It's still quite tiring to commute an hour every day. Of course, if the salary is good, it's not a bad idea to consider Sapporo."
"Is that so? OK, no problem. You have excellent qualifications and it won't be difficult for you to find a good job. Please fill out a detailed form, Mr. Fujii. Our company will pay close attention to jobs that are suitable for you, Mr. Fujii. We will call you as soon as we have any news. Please pay a deposit of 5 yen first."
".Your company registration information requires a deposit?!"
The employee of the agency smiled slowly and said, "If we don't find a job suitable for you, Mr. Fujii, our deposit will be fully refunded."
Fujii Itsuki stood up, turned around and left.
"Mr. Fujii.!"
What the hell is this full refund? It’s fine if they find it, but if they can’t, they will definitely find ways to deduct the money.
Protecting rights requires going through legal procedures, which wastes a lot of time.
The time wasted is enough to find several 50,000 yen.
The cost of defending rights is too high, and the Japanese themselves don’t like trouble.
The vast majority of people will choose to swallow their anger and admit defeat.
This is also the reason why most companies succeed every time.
After leaving the agency, it was getting late and the weather was cold.
The continuous snowfall in Hokkaido during the winter has started again.
I wandered the streets of the city with the cheapest cigarette in my mouth. When I got tired, I sat down on a bench by the roadside and watched the passers-by passing by.
Fujii Itsuki would pay attention to their clothes, their temperament, the cell phones they carried and the makeup they wore, and then, like Sherlock Holmes, he would speculate what jobs they held in the city, whether they were married or not, and how much they earned.
Two hours later, he came to the conclusion that most people were ordinary people.
Most men in their thirties do not spend any money on dressing themselves up. At first glance, they look like office workers with the words honest and haggard written on their faces.
Dealing with superiors, dealing with colleagues, dealing with wife, dealing with clients. Life is probably just repetitive like this.
Sometimes when I am stressed out at work, my wife might scold me when I get home, saying, "You just lie on the sofa when you get home. Don't you know how tired I am to do all these things at home?"
Then a family quarrel began, and the long-accumulated negative emotions between each other made the situation worse.
Children also ignore their father's love because they have not received much care from their mother since childhood.
This is a fact that Fujii Itsuki has witnessed with his own eyes. A parent was chatting with him in the office about his family situation. He was unloved by his wife, unloved by his daughter, and full of pressure at work. He was scolded and ridiculed by his boss every day. During the chat, he suddenly had a mental breakdown and cried to him in the office for the whole afternoon.
Fujii Itsuki also noticed that some uncles who looked to be almost 50 years old did not wear any marriage-related luxury goods on their fingers.
You can say he is relaxed, or you can say he is lonely.
At the age of fifty, he still hasn't met someone who can love him, someone he can love.
Fujii Itsuki couldn't help but wonder if his future would be like this, like most people, doing an ordinary job, earning an ordinary salary, repeating the same life for decades and still not knowing what he really wants.
There is no lover, no relatives, no friends to share my troubles with, and no friends to share my life with.
In the end, all pursuits can only be attributed to one thing: "money".
He didn't want to become like this, so he chose to pursue his dream from the beginning, but his dream forced him back here.
The word "dream" was becoming increasingly distant from him. He didn't know how long it had been since he last heard of it.
When we were in high school, our classmates were all full of enthusiasm and passion. They had dreams of becoming bands, singers, voice actors, baseball players, movie actors, etc. But in the end, most of them became social machines who worked just to get off work.
Fujii Itsuki looked at the falling snow from the sky and suddenly felt confused.
Did I really return to Otaru just to open a coffee shop and live the rest of my life simply?
Just then, the phone rang suddenly.
Chapter 13 Money can make the world go round
Fujii Itsuki glanced at the beginning of the phone number and saw that it was a company number, so he chose to answer it.
"Hey?"
"Is that Mr. Fujii?"
"."
Fujii Itsuki was silent for a moment. He recognized that this was the voice of the employee from the agency in the afternoon. The guy's surname seemed to be Nonaka.
"I have no interest in your company, so don't call me again."
After saying that, Fujii Itsuki didn't give the other party a chance to speak and hung up.
Looking at the snowy sky again, Fujii Itsuki began to consider whether he should try to set up a street stall to make money as Christmas was approaching, when the phone rang again.
It’s that Nonaka again.
Fujii Itsuki frowned, but wanted to hear what he wanted to say, so he pinched the cigarette filter with his index finger and answered the phone again.
This time, the other party's attitude was obviously much better.
"Mr. Fujii! Mr. Fujii! Don't be angry and don't hang up the phone!"
"What is it? I'm not interested in paying your 50,000 yen deposit."
"It's like this. A customer asked us to help find a tutor. You have been a Chinese teacher in a high school in Tokyo. You are also an outstanding talent who graduated from Kyoto University. You have also taught several subjects in the past."
"That's why you contacted me again, right?" Fujii Itsuki closed his eyes, passed the cigarette through his lungs, and exhaled.
"Mr. Fujii, I'm glad you understand. Although it's a temporary job and the working hours are less than a week, the compensation is very considerable!"
"Remarkable? How much money are you going to charge me this time?" Fujii Itsuki didn't believe them at all. Apart from those salesmen, the most deceitful people in the whole society are these intermediaries.
The person on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "Mr. Fujii, you misunderstood. I promise! I will not charge you any fees this time, not even the agency fee. You just need to agree to this temporary job and start the job in time."
"The agency fee was paid by the other party?"
"You guessed it all, Mr. Fujii?! That's amazing."
And it was a huge amount, so much so that the agent didn't even bother to take his money.
"How much is the salary, per week?"
"You'd never guess."
"Don't keep me in suspense."
"The salary they offered was 50 yen per week."
so much? !
"Well, if you agree, you just need to come over and sign an independent contractor agreement, and I can transfer the money to you right away."
What's the saying next door?
Money can make the world go round.
Now it seems to be true. After receiving the commission from a big client, the little boy Nonaka immediately changed his appearance.
He too, came back here after hearing that he could earn 500,000 yen in a week.
"The location is Kanayama 4-chome, Teine-ku, Sapporo. Mr. Fujii can go there in three days. However, you must wear formal clothes and a red tie. This is the client's request. When the time comes, you can go to the front door and knock, and someone will pick you up."
“It’s the Teine district.”
"Correct."
This place is not far away, it is the border between Sapporo and Otaru.
It takes about an hour to get to the center of Sapporo by train, but it only takes a little over half an hour to get here.
not bad.
However, Fujii Itsuki did not expect that Nonaka would be so straightforward. Not long after signing the agreement, he actually transferred so much money to his bank card.
This indirectly proves that the person who commissioned him must be a wealthy man, and the other party also values his identity as a prestigious graduate of Kyoto University.
Nonaka wanted to complete the client's task as quickly as possible, but he didn't want to offend those who met the requirements, so he was naturally enthusiastic.
This is a much easier way; it's better to speak openly than to hide things.
"By the way, can you find a caregiver?"
"Nurse? Which kind do you mean?"
"It would be best if the caregivers at the welfare home could move to a place nearby."
"I see. Where is the welfare home located? What salary range can you give me?"
"Zhujin 18-chome is around 60. The candidate must be kind, patient, female, and no older than ."
