Chapter 24: Opportunities are reserved for the rich
Whether Miss Song can sleep peacefully or not, Chen Linzhi doesn't know, after all, she didn't sleep in a bedroom.
However, he was asked by the people in the martial arts hall, Yin Yu really couldn't sleep steadily, and because he stayed up late to block the door and ask for debts, he helped to clean up and fell asleep all day, and pretended to be a national treasure with black circles under his eyes.
I couldn't hold it anymore, so I slept on the sofa of Song Yuewen's house for a while, during which Chen Linzhi accompanied her to her new residence twice, the house next to San Francisco City Hall.
After discussing their plans to stay for 10 days and a half for a while, they will consider whether to move back to Chinatown after making sure that there is no problem with safety.
Song Yuewen actually didn't want to leave, the neighborhood was familiar, her friends were also here, and she was relatively close to the nursing home where her grandmother lived, so she had long been used to it since she was a child.
As for Song Yuewen's parents, they just divorced a few years ago, their father remarried and went to Los Angeles, and their mother was busy with work, so she went to work in a hotel in New York with her friends, and she was in charge of a group of cleaners.
This is the news that Chen Linzhi heard from her during the barbecue last night.
I was busy cleaning up and moving for a long time, and by the way, I cleaned up inside and out, during which Yin Yu never woke up, and no one woke him up.
At this moment.
Chen Linzhi drove the white 911, the car craftsmanship in these years was average, and it was not as good as the small broken car of tens of thousands of yuan in later generations, and he was just addicted.
When stepping on the accelerator, the sound of air waves is okay, the outside of the car feels noisy, the inside of the car is also noisy, the space is not spacious enough, but it can attract many passers-by to watch.
He asked Miss Song:
"Your grandfather's business, your parents know about it, the new house just now, and this car, in case your mother rushes back, then I'll find another place to live, so as not to be inconvenient."
The rent of 100 US dollars a month before was an old house, and the rent for a new house is not cheap, and in the case of that house, you should be given at least two or three hundred yuan a month. ”
Unable to think of how to explain it to the elders, Song Yuewen was a little upset.
She doesn't like to drill the horns of the character, and quickly replied:
"I can tell my mother, but I must not tell my father, he likes to gamble on weekdays, I remember when he was a child, every time he was lucky, the family was a little more comfortable, once he played cards and went unlucky, the whole family suffered.
Once, after drinking, I didn't know what crazy I was, and I slapped my mother, but I advised them to separate early, so as not to be unhappy with each other, including me. ”
Other people's children are persuaded and not persuaded to separate, but when they came to Song Yuewen, they actually came the other way around.
Judging from the character she showed, Chen Linzhi believes that she is really capable of doing this kind of thing, and she is indeed not a person who thinks about problems and drags her feet.
was blocked on the highway that day, and she didn't turn around and run away, and stayed with her until the end, and she still has bruises on her wrists.
As for whether other parts of her body were injured, Song Yuewen didn't say it, and Chen Linzhi couldn't see it.
Song Yuewen was embarrassed to collect the rent, not to mention that she didn't feel that the new house really belonged to her, and her concept still hadn't changed.
So she didn't say anything, and vaguely said that she would live first.
I only brought some daily necessities over, left Yin Yu at noon, and ate a bowl of shredded noodles with pickled cabbage and meat, and the family was finished.
Chen Linzhi still has something to do.
In the afternoon of the same day, under the banner of inspecting the business, he borrowed the new car from Miss Song.
It was taken for granted that I went all the way south to the Silicon Valley area more than an hour's drive away, thinking that I could pick up the investment and get rich on the spot.
However, whether it is Apple, which has a market value of more than one billion dollars, or Microsoft, which is valued at more than two hundred million dollars, it is not an existence that he is qualified to touch, let alone IBM, Motorola and other behemoths.
The opportunity was clearly in front of him, but because he had no money at hand, he couldn't grasp it at all, and Chen Linzhi was in a state of desirability.
It wasn't a walking encyclopedia, and he didn't know many details, so he drove around a few times, filled up on the side of the road, looked at the Apple signboard from afar, took a few breaths of the Silicon Valley air that smelled of dollar money, and then drove back to San Francisco along Highway 1.
The taste of having a project but not being able to invest made Chen Linzhi so depressed that he couldn't breathe, no wonder people often say that opportunities are not reserved for those who are prepared, but for those who are prepared.
Although he can't just make money in life, he wants to earn more money now and live a chic and happy life, and this idea is not wrong.
In his own opinion, the current situation is like a toad trying to swallow the sky, and only the heart is higher than the sky.
After nightfall.
Back in San Francisco, he parked Song Yuewen's Porsche 911 on the side of the highland road, turned on the warning lights, Chen Linzhi got out of the car and overlooked the night view of San Francisco, leaned on the side of the car and smoked a cigarette, two in succession, most of which just drifted away with the evening breeze.
Thinking about it seriously in a daze, I finally felt that the road should be taken step by step, and the food should be eaten one bite at a time, and it took more than ten days to get out of prison, and I already had more than 10,000 US dollars, and there was still a long time to accumulate in the future, and opportunities were everywhere, so there was no need to be too anxious.
After thinking about these clearly, my mind suddenly cleared up, and my fighting spirit became more and more vigorous.
Life is a life, grass and trees are autumn.
With this new life, Chen Linzhi made up his mind to live a wonderful life, and he didn't want to be rich and expensive for the time being, at least he should be decent, not too salty.
Avoid doing nothing for a lifetime, and in the end comfort yourself that you are ordinary and precious, you didn't have a chance before, but now a great opportunity is in front of you, wouldn't it be a pity to miss it.
I gave myself a shot of chicken blood and drove back to the Chinatown neighborhood in high spirits.
I was thinking too much about it, and when I was close to Song Yuewen's house, I suddenly remembered that I had moved to the mansion near the city hall in the morning.
It's not far away and it doesn't take long to drive.
He didn't have a key, and he was an unfamiliar face, so he was stopped by the apartment security guard in the hall, and after calling Song Yuewen, he took the elevator upstairs smoothly.
When Song Yuewen helped open the door, Chen Linzhi found that there were many more potted flowers and plants in the house, dried flowers full of stars on the dining table, lilies in vases on the coffee table, and green plants next to the TV, which made this new house full of life all of a sudden.
What made him slightly embarrassed was that he always felt like a newlywed couple, especially Song Yuewen was still busy cleaning in an apron, which was a little sultry in his eyes.
In the end, he is still young and energetic, like a walking powder keg, and when he encounters a flame, he will be hormones in his brain.
Resolutely put your eyes aside.
Chen Linzhi told: "I went to Silicon Valley, near Stanford University, and I will help you fill up the gas tomorrow, and by the way, I will invite you to have a meal, thank you." These flowers and plants are very beautiful, and when you have time to go to a gallery or something like that, a landscape painting is hung on the wall of the restaurant, which is more beautiful, and it should be a housewarming gift from me. ”
The relationship is only closer than that of strangers, and it is far from being friends, so Chen Linzhi is more polite.
Hearing him praise the beauty of the flowers and plants, Song Yuewen smiled and bent her eyes, and replied: "I picked them for a long time before I took a fancy to them, and remember to remind me to water them in the future.
Sure enough, in the rich area, the things in the nearby flower shop are very expensive, I went to Chinatown to find an acquaintance to buy, directly help me transport to my home, the delivery master is very knowledgeable, treat me as the eldest lady of a rich family, and forced me to give a tip of five US dollars, and I feel distressed until now. ”
"You just said that you want to improve the quality of life, isn't this thing just piled up by money, I don't know if there is a management fee for the apartment, and it is estimated that you will be more distressed when the time comes. Chen Linzhi took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves to help straighten the sofa.
"I don't know if there is a management fee, I used to dream of living in a big house with a garden, and now this set is very good.
A little farther away with a garden villa, may not be as expensive as here, I heard that the building is full of rich people, just upstairs to meet a couple, it seems that they are all bosses, talking about big business. ”
Song Yuewen suddenly saw the world, her mentality was violently impacted, and she was still in a state of excitement.
That's right, I live in Chinatown when I am a child, and my family is still an old house, and my residence has now made a leap, and it is normal to be difficult to accept it for a while.
Chen Linzhi thinks it's okay, although he is relatively poor now, his vision is relatively high, and he has long been numb.
Seeing that Song Yuewen was in a good mood, and she just happened to return the favor, Chen Linzhi proposed to go out to eat something good, find a high-end restaurant to try steak, and then help her improve her quality of life.
Those Western foods may not suit his appetite, but the prices are mostly not cheap, and there is no idea of slapping a swollen face and becoming fat, purely to make Song Yuewen, the landlady, happy and happy.
