Chapter 187 - 187 Part Time Job
A male student with black-rimmed glasses looked at the lead in Leon and Simon’s scores and sighed. “Sigh, the difference in humans.”
“We don’t understand the world of a top student.”
“How do you think he learns? I’ve asked Leon and Simon before, they didn’t even sign up for the cram school.”
A boy with brown-red hair whispered in disbelief, “No way. I’m more convinced that they found a powerful teacher to secretly teach them. The reason they didn’t tell us was they were afraid of being surpassed by us!”
The girl, who was one more student away from the top 100, sneaked a glance at Leon, then looked up slightly and said, “Nonsense, will you tell us the secret when you have it? Sigh, my Mom is probably going to find me a tutor. I’ll see if I can spend money to get them to tutor me.”
Joyce jogged to the back row and deliberately pushed the long hair that covered the right side of her face behind his ear, revealing her exquisite side profile. She raised the corner of her lips slightly and asked softly, “Leon, what are your plans for the holidays?”
Leon looked up at Joyce and saw that it was a classmate whose name he did not know. He replied calmly, “This is my private matter.”
Joyce thought that Leon was angry at her for prying on his privacy, so she quickly explained, “I don’t mean anything else. I just think that your grades are too good, so I want you to help me with supplementary lessons. Don’t worry, payment is not a problem.”
Leon wasn’t interested in being a home tutor. He went to work on a holiday because he wanted to see more people and things and train himself.
He recalled what Vivian had said, “You should be gentle with others and not always say cold words out loud.” For the sake of their classmates, he patiently explained, “I’m going to take on another part-time job. You can look for Simon.”
Joyce’s smile froze. “If you’re not free, then forget it.”
Joyce quickly adjusted her state of mind and asked, “Leon, what kind of part-time job have you found?”
“I haven’t found one yet,” Leon replied. “I’ll look at the newspaper to see the recruitment Notice later.”
Joyce’s eyes lit up at the thought of her father’s recent investment project. She smiled and said, “My Dad invested in a movie, and I saw the director was looking for a group of extras. The pay is pretty good. Do you want to give it a try?”
When Leon heard this, he was a little interested. “Sure, where is it?”
Joyce was happy to see that Leon was interested. “It’s not far. The film and television city is on the outskirts of Baston, the neighboring city. It’s a two-hour drive.”
After hearing this, Simon also turned and asked, “Joyce, do you need many extras? I want to try it too.”
Joyce replied without thinking, “They have to recruit a group of them, so of course they have to recruit a lot.”
Frank was definitely going to join in the fun. “Joyce, I’ll sign up and try too!”
Joyce quickly agreed. “No problem. I’ll tell my Dad when I get home tonight. We’ll see if he can arrange another dormitory for us.”
When Leon returned home that night, he convinced Vivian to let him work in the film and television city without Ben and Radar following him.
Soon, Joyce came to meet up with Leon and the rest in her family’s car.
Joyce’s father was worried that his daughter would suffer. Not only did he rent a dormitory, but he also especially got someone to drive them to the film and television city in a business car.
As Leon went out to society to train, Vivian’s work schedule became more packed.
Vivian put the more than 100 raw stones she bought in the town last time in the basement of her house, leaving five high-quality raw stones and arranging the rest for Jobs to cut and produce.
Gold and Jade Jewelry had a total of three businesses: hardstone jade jewelry, jewelry, and stone gambling.
In order to supply 10 jewelry stores, Jobs hired 50 Jade sculptors to prepare for the supply. Except for simple jade jewelry and bracelets, the rest of the Jade jewelry would take about five days.
