Bailuyuan, I am Bai Xiaowen

Chapter 49 Translation

Chapter 49 Translation
Bai Xiaowen has been to his cousin's house.

As a result, my cousin only sold one bottle and made a fortune.

My cousin was very happy.

This is an ocean.

Bai Xiaowen didn't feel anything.

Not very happy.

I can't be happy.

A piece of ocean is of no use to him.

Only one bottle was sold in a week.

Xiangzi wants to buy a bicycle. If the money comes from selling perfume, it may take half a year.

Huoxiang Zhengqi water is also a bit difficult to get.

Maybe it will be easier to sell it at Mr. Leng's place.

The same goes for perfume, it is a bit difficult to buy without a store of your own.

People are going to go to the store to buy.

After all, they are all one yuan, and it is impossible to find that kind of three-no product.

"Xiaowen, what are you thinking about? You seem distracted."

"Make money. I'm a little short of money recently."

More than 20 oceans are indeed short of money.

If I had a bicycle, I might be able to go home now, which is convenient.

"How much is missing?"

"Two hundred oceans."

"so much."

He also thought that if it was less, he could lend it to him.

There are still dozens of dollars.

The living expenses he brings out from home are tens of dollars a month.

He didn't have 200 yuan.

Dozens of pieces can be evened out.

He spends a lot of money, lavishly.

"Xiaowen, your English score in yesterday's test was actually a perfect score? I don't think our English teacher may be able to get a perfect score. I do know a job, but I don't know if you want to do it or not."

Bai Xiaowen knew that this class leader had a good background, and now everything needs relationships, and if there are relationships, it will be easier to earn some money, "What kind of job? Can you earn 200 yuan?"

There are very few jobs that can earn 200 yuan.

"Yes, but you need skills. If you can get full marks in English, maybe you can do it. One of my uncles is the director of the English Department of the Commercial Press. The translation fee is 1 to 2 yuan per thousand words. The famous one is Binary, no name but a good translation is one yuan. I can recommend it to you, but I can’t guarantee whether it will be successful. Uncle is very good to me, and maybe he can lower your requirements.”

"Okay, then I'll try."

Today's translators, like Lin Qinnan, can earn five or six yuan for a thousand words.

"Then I'll take you there now."

The squad leader is more enthusiastic.

Maybe he really wanted to make friends with Bai Xiaowen.

Take him to the printing office.

I found his uncle.

Bai Xiaowen also called uncle.

"You want to work as a translator. Have you ever studied abroad?"

Looking at Bai Xiaowen's age, he is quite young.

For those who want to do translation work, the most important point is that they need those who have studied abroad and lived with foreigners, so that the translated works can be more appropriate.

Now all the translators are talented.

Very little.

They are all studying Western science now.

Books by foreigners are very popular.

Translation work is a blue ocean market waiting to be tapped.

Bai Xiaowen: "Uncle, I have never studied abroad."

"Have you ever been to the West?"

If I have never stayed abroad, how can I do translation work?But it was sent by his nephew, continue to have a look.

"Who is your teacher?"

Bai Xiaowen: "The students of the provincial middle school, the teacher is the teacher of the provincial middle school."

A middle school student is coming to do translation work, isn't this just to entertain him?

Even if you don't study abroad.

At the very least, it must be a well-known university in China, such as Peking University and Shenda University.

Now the uncle of the publishing house was a little angry.

Class monitor: "Uncle, my classmate is very good, why don't you let him try. His English score is perfect."

A full score in middle school cannot be translated at the printing press.

The translations are all foreign masterpieces, almost meaningless, and they have to be translated to make readers buy it.

Willing to pay for a translation.

It's all money, and in order to sell it, it must be translated to the best.

If his nephew hadn't brought it over, he wouldn't even have read it.

Thinking of giving face to my nephew, who is his classmate and friend after all, I randomly picked up a foreign classic and said, "Your name is Xiaowen, right? Please translate a paragraph for me to read."

This is considered an assessment, if you pass, you can earn this money.

His uncle was the manager of the English Department of the Publishing House and knew a lot about English.

Maybe he doesn't have the ability to translate classics, but he can understand English.

"Xiaowen, just try to translate the first paragraph on the first page."

Bai Xiaowen took the book over, and when he saw it, he knew it was stable.

Originally, I wanted to try it on my own strength.

He has learned a lot of English by himself in recent years.Coupled with the memory of later generations, I feel that the level is quite good.

But it's still not good enough for translation work.

But as soon as I saw this book, I immediately remembered what I had read in later generations.

I have read General Yang's translation.

The memory of future generations is very deep. As long as the future generations have seen it, whether it is text or pictures, they can be firmly remembered in their minds. This is also a cheat for me.

Immediately began to write, writing to the memory of later generations: There is a place in Mancha, needless to mention the place name, where a nobleman lived not long ago.He was a nobleman, with a spear on a spear-holder, and a leather shield, and a scrawny horse and a greyhound.There is more beef than mutton in the pot. There is a housekeeper in her 40s, a niece under 20 years old, and a young man who can farm and purchase, prepare horses and trim branches for him.

Handed over after writing.

"So fast."

He looked at it and nodded frequently, feeling that the translation was just right.

A thousand characters and one yuan can't just let him pass.

Maybe this passage was a coincidence.

Let him do another paragraph, turn a random page, "Xiaowen, please translate this paragraph again."

"Okay, Bai Xiaowen continues."

The squad leader asked eagerly: "Uncle, how is Xiaowen's translation?"

"Very good, if you can, you have done me a great favor."

Now it is a relatively big task to translate the books written by foreigners.It is still a relatively important task, and many people need to read books by foreigners, and they can sell them for money.

A passage was quickly translated: When everyone arrived, Don Quixote had already woken up, and was continuing to shout, stabbing everywhere, and his energy was not at all as if he had just woken up.Everyone hugged him and forced him to the bed Archbishop Turpin, it is a shame that we, who are called the twelve courtiers, have allowed these court knights to win this battle.In the first three days, we adventure knights were still victorious.

The translated manuscript was given to the past again.

Although his uncle does not have the ability to translate, his appreciation level is very high.

I know that Bai Xiaowen's translation is very good.

It was decided immediately.

"Xiaowen, your translation is very good. If you are willing to do it, you can translate this "Don Quixote". It costs one yuan per thousand characters. I need to look at it again after [-] characters."

"Thank you, thank you Uncle Lin."

There can be about 70 characters in total, and one yuan for a thousand characters, that is 700 yuan.

Buying a car and a house is enough.
