"Great! Tiantian, when does this summer job start? Can we go now?"

When these students who failed the entrance exam heard Jiang Tian say that they could work as a summer job at a vocational school and actually live in the dormitory and study at night, their eyes lit up and they couldn't wait to go.

After all, after failing the preliminary exam, they are now not even eligible to take part in the second round of the high school entrance exam.

There is no point in staying in school any longer.

In previous years, after the preliminary examination, at least half of the failed students in the school’s third year of junior high school would quickly pack up and go home.

Because the upcoming high school entrance examination has nothing to do with them anymore. They just need to wait until the examination is over and go to school to get their junior high school diploma. The three-year study career in junior high school will end here.

Besides, if they stay in school for one more day, they will have to spend one more day on food and drink. Children from rural areas are very frugal in their lives. Going home one day earlier can save one day's expenses for the family and also reduce the burden on their parents.

However, what Jiang Tian said just now did remind many students who did not plan to repeat their studies after failing the exam.

After class, a group of girls quickly surrounded Jiang Tian.

The remaining boys were embarrassed to crowd together with the female classmates, so they rolled their eyes and ran to surround Han Jisong.

He is also a famous big boss in Shuangfeng Town. Although he doesn't understand why Han Jisong still comes to school when he is so rich.

But, since they are classmates, if they ask Han Jisong for help and help them find a job to earn money, Han should not refuse, right?

Of course Han Jisong would not refuse.

However, he also made it very clear that if you don't have any skills, when you first start working in the seafood market, you can only start as a porter or loader, doing the hardest and most tiring jobs.

Even the job of killing fish, which many people look down upon, is not their turn for the time being.

After all, killing fish is a technical job. Do you really think that anyone can kill a fish with a kitchen knife?

"If you just want to work and earn some pocket money during the summer vacation, go to the seafood market."

"If you decide not to repeat your studies next year, and don't plan to go to a vocational school to learn a skill, I have a job that's more suitable for you."

"What job?"

Han Jisong pointed to Provincial Highway 336 outside the school.

"Come with me to run freight!"

In this day and age, freight running is really profitable, especially for freight company owners like Han Jisong who have both sources of goods and sales channels. As long as a few freight routes are opened up and his people are familiar with the business, all they have to do is sit at home and count their money every year.

The freight runners under Han Jisong were originally a bunch of hooligans who made a living on the provincial roads. Some of them didn't even have a junior high school diploma or even finished elementary school, and they just came out to live in society.

Now, they all behave like decent people and have become "squad leaders" or "group leaders". The lowest-ranking one can be a truck driver.

Han Jisong paid for them to take the driving test and taught them step by step how to compare prices when looking for sources of goods.

How to connect all the links and deliver the goods on the vehicle safely.

How to set up an office locally, cooperate with local "local tyrants", transport local cheap specialties, and sell them to other places to make a profit from the difference.

Then, the in-demand goods from other places are transported to the local area and sold at high prices through the channels of "local tyrants".

The difference between the inbound and outbound prices is the bulk of their freight company's profits.

Of course, those who run freight transport will inevitably carry some private goods.

Han Jisong understood the principle of "catching the big and letting go of the small" and knew that "if the water is too clear, there will be no fish". Generally speaking, as long as they did not go too far and damage the interests of the company, he would pretend not to see if the truck drivers and employees escorting the trucks brought some private goods and made some extra money while escorting the trucks.

Anyway, as a boss, you can’t ban this kind of thing even if you want to, so you might as well be generous.

Only by making the pockets of the people below fatter and making them reluctant to lose their jobs can they work harder for the company.

What Han Jisong talked about with the boys in his class was the job of trucking.

All of the old guys under me have been promoted to team leaders, so I must recruit a group of apprentices, otherwise the company's talent pool will be interrupted, right?

Moreover, Han Jisong’s “ambition” is not limited to road freight.

For some goods that do not require long transportation time and are not highly seasonal, it is actually more cost-effective to transport them by water than by land.

He had long wanted to develop the water transportation line, but because Jiang Tian was still in school, Han Jisong was worried that if he wasn't there to keep an eye on her, the girl would be taken away by a wild wolf outside. What would be the point of making more money then?

After thinking about it, I decided that half a year wouldn't make a difference, so I just stayed with Jiang Tian and finished the third year of junior high school.

However, since we need to open up new freight routes, the people we have now are not enough, and we need to recruit more people.

The reason why Han Jisong took a fancy to these male classmates in the class was mainly because most of the villages under Shuangfeng Town were close to ditches and lakes. The local children basically grew up in water and were good at swimming.

By recruiting these people, we can save the cost of arranging swimming training for them when we go water sports in the future.

They were all boys in the third year of junior high school, who were at the age of yearning for adventure. When they heard Han Jisong say that they could follow the big ship and travel all over the country in the future, not only could they travel to cities along the waterway for free, but they could also make money by the way, their eyes lit up and they couldn't wait to start working!

Why do the top students in their class study so hard?

Isn’t it just to be able to get into a technical secondary school or a normal school?

As long as you pass the entrance exam to a technical secondary school or a normal school, you will be guaranteed a job after graduation, which is equivalent to having a stable job.

However, it is extremely difficult to pass the entrance exam to technical secondary schools and normal schools, especially for township junior high schools like Caoding Middle School. If there are only one or two students who can pass the exam every year, they can already hang banners to show off.

Most people will eventually be admitted to high schools with lower scores.

If it was a county high school, it would be okay, at least it was a key high school in the county, and there would be a chance to get into a university or college, and after graduating, you would definitely be a state official.

But they knew in their hearts that even if they barely made it to the high school admission score line, they would most likely only be admitted to an ordinary high school. They would have to spend three years of tuition fees, and if they failed the college entrance examination, they would really lose both their money and their lives.

Since the end of school is to find a job, why not start working three years in advance?

At the very least, Han Jisong promised them that as long as they passed the three-month probation period, they could become full-time employees.

How many government-owned factories have closed down these days? Didn’t the iron rice bowls that were once popular among workers be destroyed just like that?

What's wrong with the public sector? If they say you're going to be laid off, you have to pack up and leave!

Besides, their families have been farmers in the countryside for generations, and there is no way to get them into public factories.

Thinking about it this way, it would be better to follow Han Jisong first.

Anyway, there is only a three-month probation period. If you fail, just treat it as a summer job.

While Han Jisong and Jiang Tian were recruiting students for Class 1, the students in Class 2 and Class 3 next door heard that the students who failed the pre-exam in Class 1 had already found jobs. They felt so sad.

It was as if the vinegar jar containing old vinegar in the supply and marketing cooperative had overturned.
