Chapter Eighty-Three: The Miners on Flower Street

After waiting in line for forty-five minutes, I was teased by the clerk and Qi Yi respectively.

Yan Yun finally ate Shake Shack's Double Shake Burger and drank Fair Shake. (Note 1)

In addition to the taste, Shake Shack's success lies in its strong fan effect and the fact that it creates a trending topic from time to time.

Although this burger tastes a bit "dusty", in general, Yan Yun is quite satisfied with her first meal in New York, especially under the premise that she already thought she was going to eat instant noodles.

"Didn't you just ask me what I was doing? I'm actually here to work as a miner. After Qi Yi sat down, he began to answer the question that Yan Yun was particularly curious about just now.

"Miner, open a mine, don't tease me, where on Wall Street can I open a mine for you?" Yan Yun didn't know what medicine was sold in Qi Yi's gourd.

"You have a point, there really aren't mines on Wall Street, so my real job title is a miner on Flower Street. Qi also gave Yan Yun "answers questions".

"Isn't Flower Street just Wall Street, I still know that. Yan Yun made a grimace at Qi Yi, who deliberately sold Guan.

Qi Yi didn't speak about the problem of "selling Guanzi" before, and most of them were infected by Yan Yun.

"That's what your cousin told you?" Qi Yi didn't want to reveal the mystery of Flower Street so soon.

"yes. Yan Yun gave a definite reply.

"Do you have a good relationship with your cousin?" Qi Yi asked a little depressed.

"Well, the two of us grew up together, but my cousin was more rebellious when he was a child, and he often fought with people at school, and he was sent to the United States by his family to study very early. Yan Yun and Qi also talked about their cousins in the United States.

"How can you say that you have a good relationship with other men?" Qi Yi's tone was quite dissatisfied.

"Please, how is my cousin, it's a cousin, not a cousin or a cousin, the two of us are definitely the same grandfather, and no one will marry their cousin even in ancient times......" Yan Yun felt that Qi Yi's speechlessness had reached a new level.

"Isn't your grandfather me? How can you think of getting married at the mention of other men? Even the clerk just now said he wanted to marry you. Qi Yi asked with a puzzled face and very seriously.

"Uh, why am I always abused by you and don't know how to respond?" Yan Yun was amused by Qi Yi's expression.

"Nonsense, my girlfriend is so wise, martial, gentle and virtuous, how can I be willing to abuse her?" Qi Yi even if he ate a hamburger, he had to hold Yan Yun's hand and not let go.

"How do you associate the idioms of wisdom and martial arts with gentleness and virtue?" Yan Yun questioned Qi Yi's choice of words.

"You are looking for a husband thousands of miles away, isn't it wise and martial, you miss me too much and fly to New York to see me, isn't it gentle and virtuous. Qi Yi continued to look at Yan Yun with a particularly serious expression.

Qi Yi's feeling of speaking at this time is exactly the same as when he helped Yan Yun solve problems in high school.

"Husband, tell me what the hell you do. Yan Yun felt that it would be better for her to move back to the topic just now.

"My job title is Quant. Sometimes, in order to make the position sound a little more lofty, many people will translate it as Kuanke, but the Kuanke people in Flower Street prefer to call themselves miners.

Whether it is a kuanke or a miner, it is translated from the pronunciation.

The full name is Quantitative Analyst.

The kind of FO (front-desk) analyst mentioned earlier doesn't really have any special requirements for mathematics.

FO analyst, all majors, the main responsibility is to find information and do PPT, to get started, waiting for two years to be promoted, the front desk analyst is the busiest position in the investment bank.

Only when recruiting miners does the investment bank in Flower Street pay special attention to mathematical ability. Qi also gave a brief description of his position.

"Kuanke? This cousin also told me~ Aren't all quantitative analysts on Wall Street looking for a Ph.D. in mathematics? After listening to Qi Yi's introduction just now, Yan Yun's expression became even more puzzled.

"No, the miners in Flower Street are usually not open to recruitment, and most of them need to be referred. The number of people recruited for this position is relatively limited, so it can be easy to misunderstand, and there are no specific academic requirements. Qi also continued to explain.

"So you took Da Niu's recommendation?" Yan Yun's mouth opened into an O-shape, he still didn't know anything about what Qi Yi had just said.

"No, several major investment banks sponsored a mathematical modeling competition before, and I got a good result, and then I was recommended. Qi Yi used a very calm tone, so that Yan Yun should not be too surprised.

"Hey~" Yan Yun sighed again after hearing this.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yi turned his head and asked Yan Yun.

Qi Yi didn't know why Yan Yun suddenly started to sigh again at this time, and there didn't seem to be any need to sigh in the topic just now.

"Why do I feel more and more that I have found an alien~" Yan Yun knew very well that the good results that came out of Qi Yi's mouth could only be the first place.

Note 1:

The name of Shake Shack literally translates to Milkshake House. Americans usually call milkshakes Shake.

Fair Shake doesn't mean how just or special the shake is, but rather that the coffee used in this shake is Fair Trade Coffee.

People who like coffee should be no stranger to fair trade coffee, Starbucks in Europe is basically fair trade coffee, and some Starbucks in China will also provide fair trade coffee intermittently.

The so-called fair trade coffee has nothing to do with the quality of the beans.

Fair Trade Coffee refers to the direct transaction with the farmers who grow the coffee at a fair price.

In this way, it is possible to avoid the middlemen who exploit the vast majority of the profits, so that the farmers in the coffee-producing areas are constantly struggling in poverty.

Although it is purchased directly, it is usually sold at a higher price than the coffee bought from a middleman.

Fair trade coffee not only needs to ensure the profitability of farmers, but also helps to improve the production technology and medical level of local farmers, and so on.

To put it simply, fair trade coffee is somewhat charitable, whether it is for coffee buyers or coffee drinkers.

All fair trade coffees will have the FAIRTRADE logo printed on the packaging, which is actually very common and is also found on the packaging of many instant coffees.
