The other party was in Nepal at this time, and he was going to hike in the Everest area on the Nepalese side, but he had to retreat because of the high reaction and rested in the hospital for a few days before he finally recovered.
Originally, the girl's idea was to hike in the Everest area of Nepal for seven to ten days, and then enter China by land from Nepal to start her own trip to China, but because of the high anti, she decided to take a plane from Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, to China, but Kathmandu flies to the domestic route is very few at present, and she is worried about the high anti, so she does not dare to fly directly to Lhasa, so she is planning to borrow Dhaka or Bangkok for transit.
Before deciding on the route, the British chick went online to report her safety to her family, and received Duffy's MSN message.
Duffy told her that a friend in China wanted to design an MP3 and asked him to help find a talented industrial designer, so he thought of her.
Because the British chick could not enter China by land, and the plane had to transfer to other countries, the cost increased a lot, and she was worried that she was a little stretched thin, and when she heard that Duffy had introduced her to a part-time job, she agreed without much hesitation.
After Du Fei and her confirmed the details, he called Li Mu and told Li Mu about these things.
After listening to this, Li Mu asked: "When will this British chick come to China?
Duffy said, "Don't call people English chicks, people have names." β
Li Mu snorted: "I know she has a name, but you didn't tell me either." β
Duffy said: "Her name is arya, Arya, and she is going to fly to Bangkok tomorrow, and then fly from Bangkok to Yanjing, and it should be the afternoon after tomorrow to Yanjing." β
"Okay. Li Mu said: "Tell me the flight number when the time comes, and I will pick her up at the airport." β
"People say it's okay to design an MP3, but it costs $20,000," said Duffy. β
Li Mu said with a smile: "What I lack here now is talent, and the last thing I lack is money." β
Duffy smiled: "You just blow it." β
Li Mu said: "Really, if you are thirsty for talent, you almost didn't go to the tattoo parlor and tattoo six words on your head: stupid, rich money, come quickly." β
For the first time, Du Fei heard the stalk that people are stupid and money come quickly, and he laughed on the phone, leaning back and forth, and only after a while did he regain his strength, and said: "I will go back to you after a while, I hope you are really like you said, people are stupid and have a lot of money!"
"A must. β
β¦β¦
Two days later, in the afternoon, Li Mu held up a large sign in front of the exit of the T2 terminal of the Capital Airport, which read a string of English: .
After the flight from Bangkok to Yanjing landed, a large number of people of all kinds gradually poured out from the exit, Li Mu held a sign and waited for twenty minutes, a young white woman with a height of about 1.73 meters and a little thin stood in front of Li Mu, and said in a very rusty Chinese: "Nihao ......"
Li Mu turned his head and saw that this girl was tall and thin, blonde and blue-eyed, with a delicate face, quite like American actor Blake Lively, that is, the s in Gossip Girl, and the female star who later had an affair with Xiao Lizi.
The girl was carrying a huge and somewhat scary hiking bag, with a sleeping bag strapped underneath and a pair of hiking boots hanging from it.
Li Mugang wanted to ask her if it was, so she pointed to the name on the sign, pointed to herself, and said, "excuse-me,i\',?"
As soon as Li Mu heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "yes-i-am, greatest-to-see-you." After speaking, Li Mu stretched out his hand and shook hands with Arya gently.
Arya finally breathed a sigh of relief and said in English: "I heard Duffy introduce your situation, I will stay in Huaxia for a while this time, and help you solve the design of mp3 first." β
Li Mu nodded, and offered to help her backpack, and then went to the parking lot.
Arya said embarrassedly, "This bag is too heavy, so I'd better do it myself." β
Li Mu said with a smile: "In Huaxia, if a man walks with a lady with such a big bag empty-handed, he will be despised by everyone, and people will say that he has no gentlemanly demeanor." β
Arya stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Well, no matter what, I can't let a gentleman be misunderstood." After that, he took off the huge backpack and handed it to Li Mu.
The moment Li Mu took the backpack and felt the weight in his hand, he was secretly surprised, this backpack must weigh at least thirty or forty pounds, and a girl running around the world with such a heavy backpack on her back is really admirable.
After getting in the car, Li Mu said to Arya while driving: "I have booked a hotel room for you, and I will send you to the hotel later, you put down your things, rest and rest, and we will go to dinner together." β
Arya hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Mr. Li, you don't have to be so polite, I'm used to staying in a youth hostel, and I don't need to live in a hotel so wasteful......"
Li Mu said without doubt: "It's your choice what you like when you are a backpacker, but since you come to Yanjing, you are my guest, I can't let my guests stay in a youth hostel, not to mention, if you want to work, you also need a quiet and comfortable environment." β
Arya still wanted to refuse, but remembered what Du Fei had told about the hospitality of Chinese people and the characteristics of Chinese men's machismo, so she didn't refute it again.
Then the two chatted a few words, Li Mu learned from Arya that she is 24 years old this year, and has been traveling around the world since graduation, and it has been more than a year now, and she has been to more than 60 different countries for more than a year, all the way from North America to South America, from Argentina to Antarctica, and from Antarctica to Africa, and then along Africa all the way north to Europe, Western Europe to Eastern Europe, and from Moscow to Turkey via the Black Sea, and then to Asiaγ
While admiring the other party's courage and perseverance, Li Mu also secretly rejoiced, saying that he was fortunate that he had practiced good English in his previous life, and there was no obstacle to communication.
Li Mu asked her why she didn't choose to work after graduation, but chose to travel around the world in such a hard way.
She replied: "I don't think it's very hard, but I think it's very fulfilling, and when I've traveled all the places I want to go, I'll go back to my hometown in England and write a book about my travels with peace of mind." β
Li Mu said: "Then you must give me a copy at that time." β
Arya stuck out her tongue and said, "I don't even know if I'll be able to publish it once it's written." β
Li Mu smiled: "If it can't be published, you can send me an electronic version." β
Arya giggled, agreed, and said, "Okay then, I'll send you a copy when the time comes......"
The hotel that Li Mu booked for Arya was a five-star hotel on Chang'an Avenue, and Li Mu booked a business suite in advance, and paid a sufficient deposit in advance to ensure Arya's stay in the hotel and daily signing consumption.
Li Mu since the start of the business, the attitude towards talent has been to take a high premium approach, not that he has money and no place to spend, the most important thing is to consider the future, the scale of the future career will be bigger and bigger, the money will make more and more, the premise is to have a strong team support, as long as it is talent, Li Mu is willing to give more than the price of others and higher than the courtesy of others, the real talent, always let you earn more than you spend, the more you spend, the more you often earn.
Arya has been out for so long, and it is the first time she has met such a caring and thoughtful person as Li Mu, although the other party has work to complete by himself, but what he has done has exceeded the scope of work remuneration, which makes her a little flattered and uneasy, but more moved.
Li Mu sent her to the door of the room, but he didn't mean to enter the door, but took out a huge brown paper envelope from his pocket, which contained 10,000 yuan in cash, a brand-new Nokia mobile phone, and a savings card with a deposit of 50,000 yuan.
Li Mu said: " These cash can save you the trouble of exchanging RMB, if you usually need what to spend, you can choose to pay cash or swipe the card, the password of the card is 123456, you can also withdraw cash at the ATM, ATM machines have English operation mode, very simple, the mobile phone has been installed in a Chinese mobile phone card, and opened an international telephone service, you can use it to contact family and friends at any time, I have stored my number in it, if you need to contact me about something, you can call me directly. β
Arya hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Mr. Li, thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept this money......"
Li Mu said: "You can temporarily take it as your reward, if it is not spent by the time you leave, I will convert it into dollars and make up the rest for you, this is always okay, right?"
As soon as Li Mu said this, Arya thought for a while, she spent some money on her illness, and she also spent a lot of money on Yanjing, and now all her belongings should be less than a thousand US dollars, at this time, it seems that she really shouldn't be reckless, so she took the envelope from Li Mu's hand with both hands, put it in her heart, and said with a grateful face: "Thank you, Mr. Li, you are really good!"
Li Mu smiled slightly, and said: "You go in first to put some things, by the way, you can take a shower and rest, it is now five o'clock in the afternoon Yanjing time, we are expected to go to dinner at seven o'clock in the evening, I will wait for you in the hotel lobby at seven o'clock, I have ordered the most famous Yanjing roast duck in Yanjing today, and we will try it together in the evening." β
Arya almost burst into tears after hearing this, although she has always been a very independent and very strong woman, but this is the first time she has been so thoughtfully taken care of by someone other than her parents, so she suddenly found that the feeling of being taken care of is so special, this is a very special beauty.
Li Mu didn't linger long after speaking, waved his hand and turned around and went to the elevator, taking the elevator downstairs, he felt that Arya had spent more than twenty hours to turn around and come to Yanjing, she should be very tired at this time, she needed to rest first.
