Chapter 112 I Want to Sell Characters
Since she attended high school in the county town before, Jiang Xue easily found the education bureau.
Jiang Xue’s luck was good too; the self-study exam had only been implemented for two years, and it was being taken seriously. When the people at the education bureau heard she wanted to take the self-study exam, they patiently explained the situation to her and registered her.
With the self-study exam settled, Jiang Xue was in a great mood and hummed a little tune as she headed to the hospital. She had always been concerned about her father’s illness, so she planned to first inquire about how much his surgery would cost.
At the hospital, there was quite a line of people waiting to see the doctor. Jiang Xue waited in line for half an hour before it was her turn. The doctor on duty was an elderly doctor, and after Jiang Xue explained her father’s situation, the doctor told her the approximate costs.
She hadn’t expected that just the surgery cost for her father’s illness would be fifty thousand yuan. It wasn’t a small amount of money; everything she owned added together didn’t even amount to five hundred yuan.
Therefore, to earn the surgery costs, she had to work hard to make money.
After thanking the doctor, Jiang Xue headed to her last destination—the only painting and calligraphy shop in the county town. When Jiang Xue entered the store, she didn’t immediately take out her paintings and calligraphy, but instead, she walked around the shop, looking at the calligraphy and paintings on display for sale.
After looking around, she noticed that the prices weren’t high, which was a bit disappointing for someone eager to make money.
However, this was the only painting and calligraphy shop in the county town; if she didn’t sell her works here, nowhere else would work either.
She couldn’t just set up a street stall to sell her calligraphy and paintings, right? Not to mention things sold on the street tend to be cheaper than those in stores, the main issue was she didn’t have the time.
