Luckily, the neighbor knew some people. After helping him look over the IOU, he nodded and said, "It should be fine. Go ahead and press it. There are so many of us here. We all heard him when he said it just now! If there's any problem in the future, we can testify for you!"
Wang Ada thought so and pressed his fingerprint.
Seeing this, the young man smiled and said, "The mine will arrange literacy classes in the future to teach you how to read for free, so you don't have to worry. The mine won't deliberately extort you for 1,800 coins."
After hearing this, Wang Ada smiled awkwardly.
Thinking about the literacy classes and free literacy lessons he mentioned, I couldn't help but ask, "Will they really teach us to read for free?"
"I'm just teaching you reading and arithmetic. If you learn well, you'll be able to work better for the mines in the future. Since I said it's free, I won't charge you any tuition.
In addition, the mine will also invest in setting up a school in the future. As long as you work at the mine, the children of your family will be able to attend school for free and get one free meal every day."
This time Wang Ada and his neighbors behind him were shocked again.
Not only does the mine teach them reading and arithmetic for free, but their children can also go to school for free?
Maybe even a free meal every day?
The boss is not recruiting people to mine, he is recruiting them to be living Bodhisattvas!
Wang Ada was very confused. He couldn't understand why the eldest princess and Jiang Er did this, but what was Mr. Xie doing?
He had also heard about Mr. Xie. Even if Mr. Xie had obtained the property of his maternal grandfather, after spending 100,000 taels of silver to buy the land, there should not be much left.
The mine recruits workers, and the wages they pay are already quite high, and they also have to provide food and accommodation, which are all considerable expenses.
After deducting these expenses, how much silver will be left in the mine?
The price of coal is not that high.
Wang Ada couldn't figure it out, but he needed money to treat his wife's illness, so he stopped thinking and asked the young man directly, "Excuse me...where can I get the money?"
The young man directly told him an address: "Take this IOU and go to the shopkeeper there to collect the money."
Wang Axiao carefully put away the IOU and prepared to leave with a nervous heart. Seeing him leaving, the young man reminded him to get the tofu soup.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ada's stomach started to feel like an empty city.
He covered his stomach awkwardly and quickly ran to get some soup.
Because his arm was injured, he could only do odd jobs to earn money. But these odd jobs were not available every day. If you were lucky, you could get one. If you were unlucky, you would have to work hard.
His parents were both dead, and his wife worked as a laundryman every day to earn money. Her ten fingers were deformed from washing, and she lost two children in succession due to overwork.
Now his family is so poor that they can barely afford to eat, and he hasn't had a full meal for a long time.
At this moment, when I smell the aroma of meat, I feel very greedy.
Wang Ada quickly received a big bowl of soup.
It was filled with tofu, chopped vegetables, and a piece of fatty meat.
The more he looked at it, the hungrier he became, so he quickly took a sip.
Fortunately, the soup was served in the bowl in advance, so it is only slightly hot when I eat it.
Wang Ada blew air while drinking the soup, and soon drank the whole bowl of tofu soup.
Now my stomach no longer feels so burning and uncomfortable, and my whole body feels warm.
He walked over and put the bowl away. Thinking that he would have food to eat every day, his originally hunched back immediately straightened up.
He had originally planned to earn that kind of money to pay for his wife's medical treatment.
She worked herself to the point of falling ill because she married this useless loser.
He cannot be ungrateful.
But now it seems that he doesn't have to fight hard.
As Wang Ada was thinking about this, he saw his neighbor took a bowl of soup and walked towards him with a smile.
He smiled and wanted to wait for his neighbor to finish his soup before leaving together.
