Chapter 186 A Hardworking Young Man

Chapter 186 A Diligent Young Man

Four days later, Wang Weidong appeared at a fishery processing factory owned by the Matsumae Sakura Fisheries Association in Kushiro City.

Wang Weidong's job is very simple, that is, standing next to the whirling knife to cut off the cod's head.

The first thing that spoils cod is the cod head. Cutting off the cod head can extend the shelf life of cod.

What he does is the first processing step. The people behind the production line process the offal and fish tails and then cut or slice them into boxes and packages.

The temperature in the workshop is very low. Wang Weidong can rest for two hours and then work for another two hours. After lunch, he works for four hours in the afternoon. The total working time is actually more than nine hours.

There are more than a hundred people in the aquatic product processing factory, and only Wang Weidong is a work-study student from China. Those who have run away have gone to places like Tokyo, Osaka, and Yokohama where wages are higher and it is easier to find jobs.

Moreover, there are many people in those places, making it easier to hide even if there is a problem with the visa.

After a few days, everyone saw that this young man from China did not do a bad job at all. Standing in a fixed place and working for eight hours every day sounds simple, but in fact it is very tiring.

Sato Yoshinori, the president of the fishery factory, knew that a young man from China had come to the factory and rushed to the workshop to observe Wang Weidong's labor.

While Wang Weidong was resting, Sato Yoshinori came over to say hello to Wang Weidong.

"Seeing you working reminds me of when I was young in the 1950s. Young people in our country are increasingly unable to endure hardship!" Sato Yoshinori said with emotion.

"My current job is nothing. I used to work harder in rural areas than here." Wang Weidong said.

"Rural areas? Our young people here have all gone to big cities. They all want to sit in offices and are not willing to stay in the countryside to farm. They are not willing to do the hard work here. Did you notice that the entire workshop

You are the youngest." Sato Yoshinori said.

"President Sato, are all the cod we process caught by Japanese fishing boats?" Wang Weidong asked.

"Of course, as Hokkaido's fishery resources are getting smaller and smaller, the fishing volume is getting smaller and smaller, and the price of cod is getting higher and higher. Maybe one day we will have no fish to catch." Sato Yoshinori sighed.

"I work here for half a month and then go back to study Japanese. I still want to work here during the summer and autumn holidays. When I finish my studies in a year, I also want to work here for a while." Wang Weidong said.

"You are always welcome, young man!" Sato Yoshinori replied.

Wang Weidong worked in a fishery factory for half a month and earned 70,000 yen, which is equivalent to a little more than 4,000 RMB.

Earning 4,000 yuan in half a month is unimaginable to people in China.

Wang Weidong returned to Asuka School in Akan Town, and Principal Meguro was very happy to see him return as scheduled.

Wang Weidong immediately made himself a Chinese meal to reward himself. When he was at the Kushiro Fisheries Factory, putting a few slices of sashimi on rice was a delicacy for Japanese people, but he really couldn't get used to it.

There were two letters stuffed under the door, one from Harbin and the other from the capital.

Wang Weidong first opened the letter from Harbin. His father Wang Haifu told him that Ou Xiaoyang wanted to know his specific address. The store on Minsheng Road was due to expire in two months. They planned to pay rent for another three years and everything at home was fine.

It seems that Ou Xiaoyang wrote to Wang Weidong immediately after knowing his address in Japan.

When applying to go abroad, Ou Xiaoyang specifically found this language school in a remote place in Hokkaido on the advice of a friend. This school didn't even require a guarantor, and it was very easy to apply. It was obviously a scam school.

Wang Weidong will come back immediately when he finds out that he has been deceived.

But what Ou Xiaoyang didn't expect was that Wang Weidong actually started studying here.

Ou Xiaoyang hopes that Wang Weidong will return to China soon. Another big business is waiting for him. This time he and his friends have prepared a leather jacket worth 200,000 yuan, intending to ship it there and make a fortune!

As long as Wang Weidong helps them complete this business, the benefits will definitely come to him.

Ou Xiaoyang also said in the letter that if he was unwilling to come back, his friends would be very dissatisfied, which would not be beneficial to his future development in China.

After thinking for a day, Wang Weidong wrote a letter to his family asking the four old people to stop running the store and stop being burdened when they are older. It is enough for the family to make money on his own.

Now he is living a good life here, he can fully support himself, and even has some surplus. It is best for his family to return to live in Xiangyang Chemical Factory first.

At the same time as sending the letter, Wang Weidong remitted another 50,000 yen to his family.

Now the country is short of foreign exchange, so this kind of foreign currency repayment is very welcome, and it is easy to exchange.

"Weidong, I heard that you worked in Kushiro City to make money during this period. How much did you earn in total?" asked another female classmate Han Mei.

"Seventy thousand yen." Wang Weidong replied.

"You will earn more if you go to Tokyo and Kobe." Han Mei said.

"I think it's very good in Kushiro. I will go there during the next two holidays." Wang Weidong said.

"Did you hear that the school now allows transfers? Several other classmates and I want to transfer to Yokohama Asuka School," Han Mei said.

Akan Town Asuka School is a branch of Yokohama Asuka School. Yokohama is one of the few big cities and famous in the world. The teaching conditions there are better, it is easier to work and make money, and it is more convenient to apply for university.

In every aspect, Akan Asuka School is not as good as Yokohama Asuka School.

"I don't want to leave, I'll stay here!" Wang Weidong said.

"I heard that Principal Meguro is also going to Yokohama." Han Mei said.

"Then I won't leave until I graduate." Wang Weidong said.

"The rest of our classmates think you are a weirdo!" Han Mei said.

Sure enough, a month later Principal Meguro left Akan Town Asuka School and went to Yokohama. However, except for Wang Weidong, the transfer that the other six people hoped for was never allowed.

In addition to his normal studies, Wang Weidong often wandered around the village and chatted with the elderly and children. He became the Chinese student most familiar to the villagers.

Wang Weidong's Japanese proficiency has improved rapidly as a result.

During the summer vacation, Wang Weidong worked for another month at a fishery factory in Kushiro City and earned 140,000 yen. During the fall vacation, he worked for another half a month and earned 70,000 yen. Wang Weidong kept part of it and sent it to his family.

Go back 150,000 yen.

The winter vacation was very short, only about ten days, so Wang Weidong decided to spend it at school.

The new principal, Mr. Yoneda, came to him and asked: "Wang Sang, you graduate in half a year. Which university do you plan to study?"

"My level is really very low, and it's really hard for me to go to university, so I plan to return to China before my visa expires." Wang Weidong replied.

"There is good news for you. Kushiro University has just been established. It is not difficult to graduate from the Economics Department. Are you willing to give it a try?" Mr. Yoneda asked.
