Chapter 14: School starts
Time passed like flowing water, and there were still 2 days before the start of school, and throughout the holiday, Ji Xiaobai spent the whole holiday in drawing comics, previewing high school courses, tutoring Brother Panda's English, and supervising the construction of the manor.
The background of several comics in a certain country in the later generations was replaced by Huaxia, but she only drew the first five volumes of each comic, which was enough to publish for half a year before she stopped writing, and the outline of the heroes of the M country series of comics, and the character modeling were also completed!
Sailor Moon, Youyou Baishu, and Slam Dunk have been serialized in youth comic magazines for a month, and Ji Xiaobai felt that time was right, so he contacted the editor-in-chief of the magazine.
"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Chen, I'm Xiaobai, I told you before that I can start recruiting comic assistants, yes, can I hang recruitment information behind my comics? That's great, yes, you can directly sign my personal recruitment assistant, no limit on academic qualifications, experience! Thank you so much!"
I'm going to report to the school tomorrow, but now, let's go see the progress of the manor first, and drive her little Toyota out the door.
Well, just after I went out, I saw Brother Panda standing at the door, "Get in the car!"
"Xiaobai, are you going out again? Seriously, every time you go out mysteriously, you can't even say what your brother is?"
"I want to know, I'll take you there today, it's not that I can't say, it's just that the house has not been built. ”
The car is more and more remote, more than half an hour later, to the foot of the mountain, in front of the 2-meter-high courtyard wall, the middle gate is a European-style hollow black iron gate, 3 meters high and 10 meters long, giving people a sense of majestic shock!
If you look to the left and right again, you can't see your head at all, okay?" "Xiaobai, what kind of place is this? This courtyard wall is too long!"
"The Ji family's ancestral home!" Ji Xiaobai replied proudly, her biggest wish since her rebirth was to bring the Ji family a new life, and building the ancestral house was only the first step.
"What? This is your hometown? It's so big, I'll go! If it was a few years ago, your family would have to be criticized!"
The car drove to the door, Ji Xiaobai rolled down the window, and the doorman inside saw her open the door and let her go, "Miss Ji!" she nodded and drove in directly!
A long asphalt road with a large patch of red roses on either side of the road. This is also what she deliberately spent more than 10,000 yuan to find someone.
500 meters inside, in the middle is a fountain pool with a diameter of 20 meters, and 50 meters away from the fountain pool are two 3-storey buildings, 100 meters horizontally and 30 meters longitudinally. Construction is underway on two buildings.
Bypassing the building, and then 500 meters into the rose field to stop here, in front of a group of villas, in the middle is a European-style 3-and-a-half-story villa, on the left and right sides of each 4 sets of different styles of 2-and-a-half-story villas.
The three-and-a-half-storey villa has been completed, while others are still under construction.
Ji Xiaobai parked the car at the door of the villa, didn't go in, and walked to the back of the villa with Brother Panda with envy and hatred written on his face, this time his face finally changed.
There is a 200 square meter swimming pool at the back of the villa with 9 pavilions next to the pool and 9 stone paths leading to the villa.
20 meters further in the pool is the prototype of a large open-air stage, which is still under construction.
20 meters away from both sides of the pool is a variety of common park fitness equipment. And, of course, her favorite swing!
The stage has not yet started construction except for the paved road. It's going to dig a fish pond and build a private tarmac.
This time, the manor was built from the original 54 acres of land to 1,500 acres, and Ji Xiaobai directly gave the village chief 100,000 yuan, and the extra 30,000 yuan was bought from the mountains next to the manor.
The mood of the national treasure all the way has changed from excitement, envy, shock, speechlessness, to numbness now. "Xiaobai, school will start tomorrow, the stocks we bought last time in Baicheng have made a lot of money now, when will we sell them?"
"Brother Panda, are you short of money now, if you don't need me, you can borrow it first! How many times have you asked me this month, you said it yourself. ”
"Brother, isn't he afraid that things will be reversed, and when the time comes, it will suddenly start to fall, can't we react and regret it?"
"Then you sell yours! 2,000 at the time, plus 5,000 later, now there must be 14,000, right?"
"Yes, Xiaobai, I wake up laughing every morning now, haha!"
"If you wait until the winter vacation and then throw it, you can at least earn 5 to 10 times. This is the last time I'll tell you. Brother Panda, I don't want a third person to know about the conversation between us. ”
The national treasure put away his smile and looked at Xiaobai seriously: "Brother is not stupid, don't worry, I didn't even tell my dad!"
was serious for only three seconds, and asked with a smile: "When will your swimming pool be filled with water, I really want to swim twice!
......
The next day, I went to the school to report and found the finance office with the admission letter and tuition fees.
"Are you Ji Xiaobai? Provincial High School Entrance Examination? Wait a minute. The teacher in charge of collecting tuition fees left in a hurry, and when he returned, he was followed by a man about 50 years old, who came in with a kind smile on his face.
"Classmate Ji Xiaobai, you finally appeared, our school has been looking for you for three months, and we haven't been able to find anyone. Let me introduce myself, I am the principal of No. 3 Middle School, and my surname is Cao. ”
Ji Xiaobai hurriedly said obediently: "Hello Principal Cao!" It's just a little strange, why are you looking for yourself? Why can't you find yourself?
"Because I'm afraid that you won't come to No. 3 Middle School in the end! We have been to your house many times, but we have heard that you have moved, and the people who live there do not know where you have moved! Not only the school, but also the reporters cannot find you. ”
Ji Xiaobai frowned, the uncle's family didn't mention it to him.
"I'm sorry, Principal Cao, I really don't know about this matter, my house is on the street behind the school, or the bubble tea shop on the left side of the school gate can also find me, and I have already filled in the address in my personal information. ”
"Although you have already come to No. 3 Middle School, the treatment prepared for you before will not be canceled, and the tuition fee for three years will be waived. I hope you will continue to work hard in high school and strive for excellent results in the college entrance examination!"
Principal Cao kept a smiling face, Ji Xiaobai knew that this was a typical smiling Buddha, and ordinary people couldn't afford to mess with him when he was really angry.
"Then thank you to the school, I will study at Yan University in college, and the principal can rest assured that the results will not disappoint you. ”
After completing various formalities, I returned home. I didn't go directly to the uncle to ask, but asked my grandmother first, "Grandma, ...... today"
"It's true that everyone hasn't mentioned it, could it be that they have forgotten? ”
"Hopefully. There are many places where I need my uncle's help in the future, and it will be very troublesome for him to disagree with me. And I'm a person who talks about trouble, grandma, you'd better talk to your uncle about your heart and life, what do you think?"
"Okay, grandma talk to him!"
Ji Xiaobai smiled, "Does grandma have any arrangements for aunts and aunts, the three stores have made a lot of money in the past two months, although I am against giving money directly, but if they want to start a business, we still have to support it!"
"I know you won't forget your aunts! I'll ask them what they mean, and I'll talk about it then. ”
......
It's been three days since school started, and the classmates have backache and back pain every day, complaining, only Ji Xiaobai and the national treasure are okay in the class, because the national treasure was dragged by Xiaobai every day to run and exercise with him every day.
"Do you have a lunch break to drink milk tea together? I feel hungry and can eat a whole fried chicken!"
"I'll go!"
"Count me in!"
"Ji Xiaobai, you can come along, his milk tea is really delicious, especially recently it can be added with ice, it's so refreshing. ”
The squad leader is a delicate boy, and Ji Xiaobai didn't participate in several small dinners organized several times, but invited him again this time.
Ji Xiaobai looked at Li Meina, "What do you want to eat at noon today?"
"I'm casual, it's okay to go and eat fried chicken with everyone, anyway, I've been exercising a lot lately, and I'm not afraid of growing meat!"
Li Meina has not dared to eat with Ji Xiaobai for a long time, Xiaobai is not fat, and she is very particular about eating, as long as she follows her, it is all food, and she can't control it at all, the problem is that she will grow meat!
"Brother Panda?"
"I'm going to eat five burgers. ”
Ji Xiaobai rolled his eyes. "Count the three of us!"
......
Under the scorching sun, there is a military posture, sweat flows down the cheeks to the chin, and then drips, again and again, the back of the students is a sweat stain, the current military training is the task of the school physical education teacher, and there is no instructor of the army as in later generations, so there is no trick except for standing in the military posture in unison.
After half an hour, the training session ends and the lunch break begins.
More than a dozen students in the first class walked to the bubble tea shop together, and the class leader counted what everyone drank and said, "You go to the fried chicken shop first, I'll buy milk tea, and you take up space for me." ”
"I'll accompany you, squad leader, how can you take it yourself!" It was Wang Tingting, a member of the literary and art committee in the class, who spoke, combing two big braids hanging down to her chest, with a small jasper face, and blushing when she spoke.
Ji Xiaobai and the three of them didn't tell the squad leader what to drink, and went directly into the milk tea shop.
Wang Tingting looked unhappy, but she didn't say anything, she liked the squad leader and wanted to get along with the squad leader alone, but these three people didn't have any eyes!
Ji Xiaobai entered the store without queuing up and walked directly to the bar, Wang Tingting sneered:
"Ji Xiaobai, this shop is very popular, you can't buy anything you want to drink directly, don't be ashamed, don't you see me and the squad leader line up like that? Everyone will blame you for cutting in line for a while, come back quickly!"
After speaking, he stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, thinking that he was very well-behaved and sensible, but he didn't know that the eyes of the three of them showed disgust.
Ji Xiaobai looked at her and smiled,
"Are you sure you're going to line up?
"Of course I don't cut the line, so many people are queuing, how can I be selfish to cut the line, you should come back soon!"
After speaking, he looked at the squad leader helplessly. The squad leader also felt that Ji Xiaobai's approach was a bit embarrassing, "It's not right to cut in line, you better not ......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ji Xiaobai enter the bar, and quickly brewed a cup of cappuccino with ice, another cup of chocolate milk tea with ice, and finally a cup of boiled water with ice.
It takes less than 1 minute before and after. Walked out with three glasses of water. Ji Xiaobai didn't want to be like a child, and ran away without saying anything.
Li Meina is not so good-tempered, "Since you don't plan to cut the line, then we will go first." You guys continue to line up!" said that, he raised his hair arrogantly.
The national treasure didn't speak the whole time, just took three drinks.
When they arrived at the fried chicken restaurant, the classmates saw the three of them, and hurriedly asked the class leader, Li Meina said funny:
"Wang Tingting said that the three of us were embarrassed to cut the line, so I pulled the squad leader to line up to buy water!
The students are a little confused, they have come here many times to eat before the school starts, but who dares to cut the line?
The boy didn't have so much thought, "Li Meina, I want a fried chicken, a hamburger, and a fries"
When the other students saw someone talking about it, they also said what they wanted to eat.
This time, Li Meina and the national treasure went to the bar and began to make food for the students.
The speed is not slow, and it takes less than three minutes to put the food on several plates and take it out.
Everyone looked at the two of them in shock, what kind of operation is this? Do it yourself? But you don't see the money.
"Brother Panda, please eat today, you're welcome. Ji Xiaobai looked at the national treasure's pride and didn't forget to make it bad!
"Xiaobai!" the national treasure shouted helplessly and dotingly.
