Chapter 30: There's a Chance
Meng Xiaobai dialed it again and didn't get through, and after more than ten minutes, the other party took the initiative to call back.
"I'm sorry, there was something going on just now. Meng Xiaobai, I haven't been in touch for a long time. Gan Huarong opened his mouth and said, at this moment, he was standing outside the door of an Internet company, ten minutes ago, Gan Huarong had just experienced an interview, and the other party asked him to wait for the notice.
Gan Huarong already had a premonition of the result in his heart, and there was little hope.
"yes, it's been a long time. Meng Xiaobai said with emotion.
"How are you doing?" asked Gan Huarong.
"It's fine. The conversation between the two was dry.
Meng Xiaobai simply said directly: "I'm coming to Yangcheng, I heard that you seem to be in Yangcheng too, so I'll give you a call." ”
"You're coming to Yangcheng too!" Gan Huarong immediately replied, "Okay, there are many opportunities in big cities." Although Jiangcheng is also a first-tier city, the salary level there is still not very high. How long have you been here?"
"For more than half a month. ”
"Say it earlier!" Gan Huarong said, "I came to Yangcheng after graduation, and now I have been here for almost four years, and I know it well." If you have any questions, you can come to me, by the way, if you have time, why don't we have a meal? ”
His attitude was still as enthusiastic as ever, and Meng Xiaobai did not refuse, the two set a time and agreed to meet and chat.
Yangcheng, a community, in a shared house, Gan Huarong returned to the nest with heavy steps.
"How's the interview?" asked a woman about his age in the room, this was his live-in girlfriend, Zhang Tongtong.
"I don't know, wait for the notice. Gan Huarong sat on a stool, wiping his sweat with a towel.
"Waiting for a notice again?" Zhang Tongtong immediately showed a dissatisfied expression, "How many times have you waited for a notification!
Gan Huarong was also a little dissatisfied, he was already very tired after going out for a day, but he still said patiently: "This can't be helped, it's difficult to find a job now." You won't let me go what I was looking for!"
"You can go to any job!" Zhang Tongtong immediately retorted and said: "The monthly salary is 7,000 yuan, and there are no five insurances and one housing fund." Can this little income support us? If we don't have 20,000 yuan a month, how can we buy a house in Yangcheng in the future? I can't afford to repay the loan for 100 years!"
"How can a job with a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan be so easy to find! And people can't give you such a high salary at the beginning!" Gan Huarong said, "In my previous jobs, the boss said that the salary would be raised, but you kept asking me to resign, now it's okay, right?"
"Do you mean to blame me?" Zhang Tongtong's tone changed.
"I don't blame you, I'm just stating the reality!"
"You're just blaming me!"
"Stop, stop, stop arguing, I'm tired!" Gan Huarong held out the exemption card, but Zhang Tongtong didn't want to stop there.
"No, I have to finish today!" Zhang Tongtong continued, "I showed your resume to my cousin, and he said that there is a chance. If he could, you could go and work there!
"I said, let me find it myself. Gan Huarong felt a little embarrassed, and he actually needed his girlfriend's help to find a job.
"You're still so machismo!" Zhang Tongtong has long been used to it, "You have to ask for it, I've told my cousin about it! He's a manager in the Wolf Tooth Information Technology Company! They are now recruiting a group of programmers, you should go!"
"Are you going?" Zhang Tongtong stared at him, and after the two looked at each other for a few seconds, Gan Huarong had to compromise, "Okay, I'll go." ”
"That's right!" Zhang Tongtong sat on his lap, gave him a fragrant kiss, and admonished: "Remember, be respectful to my cousin, he is a good person." If you say something nice, you might be able to do it!"
"Got it. After Gan Huarong compromised, he said quite embarrassedly: "Tongtong, that, I have a junior brother who came to Yangcheng, and I said that I would invite him to dinner." You see, isn't it ......"
"It's going to cost money again!" Zhang Tongtong was very dissatisfied at the mention of this, "You are unemployed, what kind of food do you invite people to eat!"
"Old friend, he only came to Yangcheng not long after he graduated, I can't help a little. Gan Huarong said.
"I really can't help you, you can't protect yourself. Zhang Tongtong said, "It will be transferred to you later, don't spend too much, until you find a job, we all have to save money." ”
"Got it, my wife is so nice!"
......
A day later, in a small restaurant, Meng Xiaobai met Gan Huarong.
"Senior, I haven't seen you for more than two years, your hairline is worrying!" Meng Xiaobai said jokingly.
Gan Huarong wiped his head, his hairline had begun to push back, and he said helplessly: "I can't help it, maybe this is the fate of our programmers!"
"What's the matter? Are you still used to coming to Yangcheng, do you have a place to live?" asked Gan Huarong.
"Luckily, I rented a place to live. Meng Xiaobai briefly exchanged a few words with him and asked each other about the current situation.
"It's hard to find a job, but I'm not alone. It's my girlfriend who is urging her to get married, and she wants to buy a car and a house, and the financial pressure is quite high. Gan Huarong said with emotion.
"Have you found a job?" asked Gan Huarong.
"I ...... I'm still watching. Meng Xiaobai didn't answer truthfully, he still wanted to know about the other party, if he could, he could help.
"Hold on. Don't rush now, you'll be in a hurry in two years. Gan Huarong said, "Today is just right, I also invited someone to dinner." It's my wife's cousin, who works as a manager at Wolf Tooth Information Technology, and their company is going to hire a group of programmers, and it is said that the salary is very good. You can ask. ”
Gan Huarong had told Meng Xiaobai about this matter before, he was trying to save money, so that he could invite two people for one meal, and Meng Xiaobai didn't care.
"Okay, I'd like to ask too. Meng Xiaobai smiled, Gan Huarong thought he was very happy to get this opportunity.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Gan Huarong's girlfriend's cousin, Zhang Jian, came in a hurry.
He was a slightly chubby middle-aged man, wearing a suit and leather shoes, with his sleeves slightly rolled up, cutting to reveal his tens of thousands of mechanical watches.
"I'm sorry, have you waited for a long time?" Zhang Jian raised his head, looked at his Longines mechanical watch, and said: "The road is very congested today, and I can't take a step in driving for half a day!"
"Understood!" Gan Huarong smiled, "Cousin, I've worked hard for you, sit down." ”
"It's hard work!" Zhang Jian sat down and began to sigh, "Recently, the company has been very busy and has to work overtime." During this time, many people asked me out, and I pushed it. If it weren't for the fact that you're Tongtong's boyfriend, I wouldn't have been able to spare time!"
"Thank you, cousin. Gan Huarong was a little embarrassed, he didn't know how to say those polite words.
"By the way, who is this?" Zhang Jian noticed Meng Xiaobai.
"My surname is Meng, and I am an alumnus of Senior Gan. When Meng Xiaobai saw him asking, he knew that this person didn't know him.
"Oh, little Meng. Zhang Jian nodded.
Gan Huarong hurriedly said: "He also studied computer science and just came to Yangcheng. Cousin, don't you have a job offer over there, and if it's convenient, let him submit a resume?"
