Chapter 3; Wage Advances

Crouch down.

One by one, Yan Zhendong picked up the money rewarded by the people watching around.

There is not much money, and it is all copper plates.

This little money is at most enough for him to buy something to eat, and he can't even find a place to live at night.

However, the money was earned by my own hard work, so there is nothing to be ashamed of.

For a person like him who walks the rivers and lakes and is sometimes so poor that he can't even afford food and is going hungry, face is not important at all.

Filling the stomach is the last word.

Of course, this also strengthened his idea of ​​opening a martial arts gym in Foshan and making a name for himself.

He really didn't want to continue living like this.

Soon, Yan Zhendong picked up all the money on the ground.

There are only a dozen copper coins in total, not many, so naturally it doesn't take much time to pick them up.

And when he was picking up money, the people around him almost dispersed.

Wait until Yan Zhendong stands up.

He found that there was still a person standing next to him, and he was still looking at him.

This made Yan Zhendong frowned.

"Master, you are practicing external skills." Jiang Hao took the initiative to speak.

Yan Zhendong glanced at Jiang Hao, but did not speak.

Obviously, he didn't intend to pay attention to Jiang Hao.

"Looking at your face, you don't look like a native of Guangdong. I don't know if you have a place to live. I have a small courtyard. If the master doesn't mind it, you can come and live with me for a while."

Hearing Jiang Hao's words, Yan Zhendong, who didn't care at first, took a deep look at Jiang Hao.

He has been sleeping on the street for several days.

If possible, he also wants to live in a place that can shelter from the wind and rain.

But he couldn't afford to stay in the inn.

It's a problem for him to eat now.

Let alone live.

Hearing that Jiang Hao had a place to live there, he was immediately moved.

"That's right, I'm practicing the outer kung fu iron cloth shirt."

"You ask so many questions, what's the matter?"

Yan Zhendong is not a stuffy person.

He just didn't understand what Jiang Hao wanted to do at first.

Now after listening to Jiang Hao's words, he knew that Jiang Hao must have some purpose, so he took the initiative to approach him.

This is not the first time this has happened.

"Don't know what to call it?"

"Qi Lu Yan Zhendong."

"It turned out to be Master Yan. I am going down to Jiang Hao, the river of the great river, the boundless Hao. I am disturbing Master Yan. I actually want to worship Master Yan as my teacher."

"Teacher?" Yan Zhendong was not surprised either.

He just looked Jiang Hao up and down carefully.

"You're old, it's too late to practice martial arts now, and I'm practicing the external kung fu iron cloth shirt, which is not rare in the Jianghu. If you want to practice it well, it will not only take time, but also take a lot of money." Bitter, you are not the first person I met who wanted to worship me as a teacher, but those people, after I really taught them how to cultivate the iron cloth shirt, all of them chose to give up within a few days."

"I want to learn my iron shirt"

"I would like to offer a teacher apprentice ceremony, 100 taels of silver."

Before Yan Zhendong finished speaking, Jiang Hao interrupted Yan Zhendong directly.

Yan Zhendong was taken aback.

He looked at Jiang Hao in astonishment.

"Ten taels?"

"Yes, 100 taels, and if you are willing to accept me as a disciple, Master Yan, I will also take care of your retirement in the future."

Seeing Yan Zhendong's disbelief, he looked up and down again.

Jiang Hao smiled and said, "100 taels of silver is not a small amount, Master Yan probably won't believe it."

"But it's okay, Master Yan may not know that I am the cook in charge of Hesheng Building, the best business in the city, and my daily wages are one or two taels of silver."

"100 taels of silver is not much to me."

A tael of silver a day?
Yan Zhendong was a little surprised.

Earning one or two taels of silver a day is definitely a high salary in this era when many people can't eat enough to eat, or even starve to death.

"This..." Hearing Jiang Hao's words, Yan Zhendong hesitated for a while.

100 taels of silver is not a small amount.

A penny stumps the hero.

He also wants to open a martial arts gym in Guangdong, but he has no money to open a martial arts gym.

You can't just find an open space to accept apprentices, can you?
Under such circumstances, who would worship him as a teacher, wouldn't that be bullshit.

If he really had 100 taels of silver, he could use the money to rent a large yard in Foshan and open a martial arts gym.

Even if it is not opened for the time being, the money will save him from worrying about food and accommodation.

Moreover, Jiang Hao is also a famous cook. Judging from what he said, he seems to be a master chef.

"If Master Yan doesn't believe it, we can go to the Hesheng Building in the city right now and ask in person. Then Master Yan will know whether what I said is true or not."

In the end, Yan Zhendong still failed to refuse Jiang Hao's proposal.

But before going to Hesheng Building, Jiang Hao suggested going to his small courtyard to change into clean clothes.

When the two of them had just talked, the heavy rain that had been onslaught had already stopped and did not continue to fall.

And the clothes they are wearing now are all wet, even if they are in good health, they are not afraid of catching a cold.

But it's better to change into clean clothes than to put on wet clothes.

After changing into clean clothes.

Jiang Hao took Yan Zhendong directly to Hesheng Building.

"Ah Hao, why are you back?" The shopkeeper Li Ming was slightly taken aback when he saw Jiang Hao coming back, and then greeted him with a smile.

At the same time, there are some surprises in my heart.

After Jiang Hao left on weekdays, it was not until the next day, but he never saw anyone.

He was surprised to be able to see him twice in one day today.

But he soon noticed that Jiang Hao didn't come alone.

"Uncle Li, this is Master Yan Zhendong, from Qilu. He is very skilled, no worse than Master Huang. I plan to worship Master Yan as my teacher."

"So, I want to prepay 80 taels of silver in the store first, and use it to apprentice." Jiang Hao smiled and said his reason for coming directly.

And Yan Zhendong is also looking at this side.

He wanted to confirm whether Jiang Hao had lied to himself.

But seeing Jiang Hao greet Li Ming skillfully, he was basically sure that Jiang Hao didn't lie to himself.

Li Ming didn't expect that Jiang Hao came back because of this incident.

To be honest, it is definitely impossible to advance wages in advance.

80 taels of silver is not a small amount.

But this is for others.

Jiang Hao is different.

He knows better than anyone why the business with Sheng Lou has become so popular during this period of time.

It was because of Jiang Hao.

Because of his good cooking skills, the more repeat customers, the better the business.

So when Jiang Hao said he wanted to advance his wages.Although he didn't directly agree, he didn't directly refuse either.

"Ah Hao, it's against the rules for you to do this." Li Ming said.

Jiang Hao just looked at him with a smile.

The expression on his face didn't change at all.

Smart brat.

Seeing Jiang Hao's expression, Li Ming didn't know that Jiang Hao was sure of him.

For those who run a restaurant business, a good cook is very important.

Jiang Hao is good at cooking, if He Shenglou doesn't want him, he can change jobs to other restaurants at any time.

Foshan is very large, and there are no less than twenty restaurants in business.

Jiang Hao's cooking skills are there.

And because of the good business of Heshenglou, he actually already has some reputation in Foshan.

If Jiang Hao's 80 taels of wages were not paid in advance, it would not be good news for He Shenglou if this guy quit his job.

So Li Ming quickly changed his subject with a smile, and said, "However, that's for others. I know your skills, Ah Hao. Because of you, He Sheng Lou made a lot of money this month. It’s just an advance payment of wages, no problem.”

"And starting tomorrow, your wages will increase from one tael to one tael a day, how about it?"

"Then I will thank you, Uncle Li." Jiang Hao nodded with a smile.

Yan Zhendong saw all this in his eyes.

He is not a brainless person, as can be seen from here.

Jiang Hao should be very important to Heshenglou.

If it is important to a restaurant, it means that Jiang Hao's cooking skills are very good.

Thinking of this, he already intends to accept Jiang Hao as a disciple.

It wasn't because of the 100 taels of silver apprentice ceremony, but because he felt that Jiang Hao, an apprentice, was capable.

Moreover, Jiang Hao was also tall and handsome, he could be regarded as a handsome guy with sword eyebrows and star eyes.

He has the ability and looks very good.

Such an apprentice, it will save face if he is taken out.
