Chapter 780
Although Jia Jinqian still didn't want to admit it, he had to admit it: he had always thought that the young master of a wealthy family lived such an arrogant and domineering life, but not everyone was like this.
Outside Jia Weiqian's house, there are completely different, even very diametrically opposed things happening.
Like Jia Weiqian, those young masters from wealthy families did not stay in the mansion all day to compete for favor with the patriarch, nor did they worry about falling out of favor all the time, nor did they enter the mansion because of a mere strange Jia losing money. It must be cruelly tortured.
They don't have that kind of leisure and effort, because they are still busy queuing up to apply for volunteers.
"As long as they are selected and become volunteers, it is good for them."
"In this world, how can there be so many people who are truly willing to contribute their strength selflessly."
"The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the chaos of the world is for profit."
Seeing that Jia Jinqian was stunned like a fool, Brother Dan raised a few more words.
There are many people and many things in this world. The world is not only as big as the one you see in front of you. There is a wider and boundless world in places you can't see.
"Everyone does things for profit, isn't it no different from me?" Jia Jinqian finally responded.
He wanted to live better by Jia Weiqian's side. There were only so many family resources, and it was impossible to distribute them equally to everyone. Therefore, in order to get more resources, he had to fight and grab them by all means.
Everything is just for profit.
And that's exactly what Brother Egg said.
"You're thinking narrowly." Brother Dan said softly, "Although everyone is doing things for their own interests, the existence of the imperial court is to put everyone's things in the right place. Specifically, even if I say If you don’t understand it, you can see it for yourself, and you will know it when you understand it.”
Jia Jinqian stopped arguing, he had to find evidence by himself, and then convince Brother Dan.
At this time, Jia Jinqian only felt that the whole world was filled with an atmosphere as ugly as himself, and that under the seemingly beautiful skins, there were all hides that were more ferocious than the monsters in the demon country. see.
For the next few days, until the start of the Tofu Festival, Brother Dan took Jia Jinqian to recharge his batteries.
Of course, Jia Jin's money is kept in accounts, regardless of whether it is food or housing.
The day before the Tofu Festival, the work of the selected volunteers has already started.
Early in the morning, Brother Dan brought Jia Jinqian and quickly took the clothes.
"Hurry up and change your clothes. In the next few days until the Tofu Festival is over, you will wear these two sets of clothes." Brother Dan urged Jia Jinqian.
"Where to change?" Jia Jinqian hugged the clothes, a little dazed.
"There are special wooden signs on the side of the road. Even if you are illiterate, you can recognize them based on the patterns. You can also ask the volunteers guarding the wooden signs." Brother Dan pointed Jia Jinqian.
Jia Jinqian hurriedly looked at the wooden sign on the side of the road, and followed the instructions to find a changing room dedicated to changing clothes.
Entering the locker room, it was crowded with people.
Jia Jinqian suddenly felt uncomfortable. He has grown up so much, and he has always been a servant to take care of his daily life. He even has a special room for changing clothes. He is crowded with so many people like this now, and he just feels that he will not be able to breathe.
But everyone didn't want to avoid the frowning Jia Jinqian, but quickly changed their tattered or luxurious clothes and put on volunteer clothes uniformly.
"Hurry up, there is a competition between each group, but don't fall behind."
"Hey, the clothes are changed, let's go quickly."
A group of people who changed their clothes left quickly, and soon someone came again.
Jia Jinqian walked to the farthest corner, avoided other people, and changed clothes evasively.
At this time, someone next to him patted Jia Jinqian lightly, "Brother, you are going to fall behind if you move so slowly, change your clothes quickly."
"Don't touch me!" Jia Jinqian was full of unease.
"Hey, you're not forced to come here by your family, are you? Listen to my brother's persuasion, obediently appoint work, become a volunteer, and you will be just like everyone else, nothing special."
The speaker had already changed his clothes quickly, put his clothes in the wooden cabinet, locked it, and then ran away quickly.
Jia Jinqian was stunned. He saw the changed clothes, which were embroidered with very rare patterns, which were unique to the Pei family in the capital, and no embroiderer in other families could embroider them.
That is the eldest son of the Pei family, whose background is much more noble than Jia Jinqian, even Jia Buzhen, a direct branch of the Jia family, is not as good as the Pei family.
Jia Jinqian suddenly became less awkward, he quickly changed his clothes, and immediately became the same as everyone around him.
After changing the shoes, Jia Jinqian left the dressing room and joined Brother Dan.
Brother Dan took him away immediately, "I got you an errand, here..."
Because Brother Dan is considered a non-staff volunteer, and even bringing Jia Jinqian is also considered a non-staff volunteer, so there is some room for choice in errands.
Brother Tan helped Jia Jinqian to pick out the money, which was extremely untechnical. He only needed to take a dustpan and a broom and be responsible for all the garbage on a short road.
After taking the dustpan and broom, there are obvious signs on both sides of a short section of the road, and Jia Jinqian is responsible for the section of the road between the two signs.
"As long as there is rubbish, you go forward to pick it up, and when the dustpan is full, you go to the trash can on the side of the road to empty it."
"I will accompany you in the morning, and you can come by yourself in the afternoon."
"Someone threw trash over there, go and pick it up."
Brother Dan spoke quickly, and gave Jia Jinqian quick instructions.
Jia Jinqian didn't have time to think about anything else, so he hurried over with a dustpan and a broom, and picked up the peels thrown away by the passers-by.
Just before he straightened up after picking up the garbage, there was another garbage, so Jia Jinqian had no choice but to continue running there.
After working all morning, Jia Jinqian felt that he had no time to breathe. There was always rubbish on the road, and he had to run non-stop to pick it up.
After finally waiting until noon, Jia Jinqian felt that he was so tired that he didn't have the strength to open his eyes after hearing Brother Dan say it was all right.
"Go eat." Brother Dan said.
"But as long as I leave, there will be garbage on the road." Jia Jinqian was a little hesitant. He looked back at the concrete road that was temporarily free of garbage, and felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment spontaneously.
Brother Dan quietly raised the corners of his lips, and quickly straightened his face.
"Someone will come over to take over from you and give you time to eat."
"Oh."
Jia Jinqian breathed a sigh of relief subtly, and quickly left with Brother Dan.
The place to eat is fixed, and everyone has a specific wooden plate, chopsticks, spoons, and wooden bowls.
Stir-fried vegetables in a big pot, steaming steamed buns and steamed buns, and fragrant soup.
There are not many types of choices, but it is not specially for eating and enjoying.Jia Jinqian followed Brother Dan, and quickly got a bowl of soup, two buns the size of a fist, a steamed bun the size of a fist, a plate of pork belly and stir-fried vegetables.
I didn't specifically look for a place to eat, so I just found an empty place and ate it on the ground, and I started eating.
"I've worked overtime today to assemble temporary tables and stools, and I will have tables and benches for dinner tomorrow." Brother Dan said after taking a bite of the steamed stuffed bun.
The fist-sized buns are very soft, and you can eat the filling directly with just one bite. The fragrant filling has visible meat.
Jia Jinqian didn't know if he was hungry, so he ate a whole big bun in three mouthfuls, picked up the big bun again, and started eating vegetables.
The appearance of this big pot of vegetables is not good-looking. If it was in normal times, Jia Jinqian would never eat it, but now he can’t care about so much. He ate meat and vegetables voraciously. Pick up the big buns.
"If you're not full, you can still get buns and steamed buns." Brother Dan reminded.
"I'm full." Jia Jinqian burped after eating the last bite of the steamed stuffed bun.
Brother Egg has just finished eating.
"There is an hour to rest, hurry up and rest, and continue to work in the afternoon."
"kindness."
I was really exhausted in the morning, Jia Jinqian didn't pay much attention to anything, and followed Brother Dan into the temporary wooden house. When he saw the Datong shop, he didn't care about anything else, so he just climbed up and lay down, and then fell asleep.
He didn't think he slept for long, so Jia Jinqian was directly called out by Brother Dan.
Continue to work in the afternoon.
Holding a dustpan and a broom, guarding a short distance, as long as there is rubbish, quickly pick it up.
Because he was too busy and tired, Jia Jinqian didn't bother to observe the people on the road, and he also forgot that he was a dignified young master of the Jia family who came to pick up trash. If others saw it, wouldn't they laugh at him?
When it was getting dark and the demon lights were on, because the tofu festival hadn't started yet, and the number of people on the road gradually decreased, Jia Jinqian had time to think about those things.
In fact, some people on the road had already recognized Jia Jinqian's identity, but the ridicule and insult Jia Jinqian imagined did not happen, but instead won the admiration and respect.
Suddenly, Jia Jinqian seemed to understand.
The tofu festival in Beijing is very lively, and the number of volunteers is limited. Many people may not be selected even if they have that kind of thought.
And Jia Jinqian was selected without a doubt because of his brother Dan.
So even if he was doing garbage picking, even if it was a job that he would never do on weekdays, no one would mock him.
Those people are envious of his volunteer status.
"Jia Jinqian, call it a day."
When the time came, Brother Dan appeared out of nowhere.
Jia Jinqian hurriedly put the dustpan and broom in a fixed place, and followed Brother Dan.
Dinner is also a big pot meal, so there is no need to follow Brother Dan to the shop to eat, so as to keep accounts.
However, there are also some rich young masters who use their own money to go to restaurants, and they are still wearing volunteer clothes. At this time, you can tell: those who have money to eat in restaurants are not short of money. , and those who continue to eat big pot meals are not necessarily short of money.
But those who are short of money will definitely go to the big pot.
Dinner is a thick porridge with multigrain, and there are very soft, colorful flower rolls. The meat in the dish is not pork, but chicken.
And equally full.
Jia Jinqian no longer gorged himself like he did at noon, completely ignoring other things. Instead, he followed Brother Dan to use the temporary table and bench that had just been assembled, eating slowly while watching other people.
There are bright demon lights here, and you can clearly see those people wearing the same volunteer clothes.
Some of them cherished the flower rolls, but they were not willing to eat them. They only drank porridge and kept all the vegetables.
