Chapter Seventy-Seven: Leisure and Homecoming

Du Qiu is not a workaholic, so after graduating from college, he only took classes for two years, so he was too tired to give up his low-paying job and go back to his alma mater for graduate school, but he is not a leisure party who does nothing every day and only cares about eating, drinking and having fun, so he often takes on private work when he is studying in school and does some work that interests him.

What's the point of working hard if you can't enjoy life to the fullest?

Therefore, Du Qiu did not return to China directly from San Jose, but went to New York, not to deal with anything important, just to have fun, he has been carrying out high-intensity and efficient work after the Spring Festival, and now that the first phase of the work has been completed, he wants to reward himself.

If you don't really spend money, how can you feel the refreshment of spending time and drinking?

If you don't really climb high and look far, how can you experience the pride of pointing out the country?

So Du Qiu went to New York, because this is the most luxurious desire capital in the world, only by spending time here to enjoy it, can you truly experience the pleasure brought by money and material, cheer yourself up, cheer up, completely break free from the inertia of the otaku who is rich and peaceful, and continue to fight for a better future.

Wall Street, Broadway, Times Square, Lincoln Center......

Manhattan, United Nations, Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty......

In the Internet era of the information explosion, these attractions have long been exposed by countless pictures and film and television works, lost the aura of the tower, and become the vulgar scenery of the bad street, before the crossing, Du Qiu disdained these things, but after the crossing, under all kinds of stimulation, he changed his mentality, and felt that the scenery was the same as the feelings, only by being immersed in the scene, experiencing it personally, in order to appreciate the beauty and charm of it, so he had a lot of fun.

On the evening of April 16, Du Qiu took the tickets booked more than 20 days in advance and watched Michael Jordan play at Madison Garden Plaza in New York.

In this game, the Bulls defeated the Knicks 111-90, Jordan's performance was not good, only scoring 28 points, but Du Qiu was extremely excited, cheering and excited for every goal in the cold eyes and curses of countless Knicks fans around him, because this is his first childhood and teenage dream after crossing over!

After completing the dream, the leisure trip to New York was over, and at noon the next day, Du Qiu took Jiang Danfeng, who was still unfinished and still in a psychedelic state, to return to China by plane.

Arriving in New York on the evening of April 8 and leaving New York on April 17, in just nine days, for Jiang Danfeng, it was like a dream, from a country girl to an international socialite, living in the most expensive hotel, eating the best food, watching the most wonderful performances, visiting the most prosperous shops, it can be called a flawless trip, without a trace of regrets.

When he agreed to be a secretary, he didn't ask Du Qiu to provide clothes in addition to food, shelter, and transportation......

But in that case, what kind of secretary am I? I will become a mistress......

If every month is as romantic and extravagant as New York, there is nothing wrong with being a mistress......

But this guy always talks about it, but never really does it, and what's even worse is that he actually hooks up with those American women in front of me, and every morning the hotel room is filled with the strange smell of perfume......

In the comfortable and spacious first-class cabin, Jiang Danfeng was full of thoughts, reminiscing about the past, looking forward to the future, frowning and smiling, until he was exhausted and his mind was sleepy, he put down the back of the chair, wrapped himself in a blanket, and lay down to fall asleep.

I don't know how long she slept, she woke up from her dream, opened her eyes, and saw Du Qiu typing on the laptop she bought in New York, so she raised her left hand and looked at the Cartier watch that she had been entangled for a long time to buy, and found that she had been flying for nearly 13 hours and was about to arrive in the capital, so she turned her body sideways and asked softly: "Du Qiu, what are you writing?"

"A text editor. ”

Jiang Danfeng sighed secretly in his heart, because once Du Qiu started programming, it meant that he switched from a casual state to a working state, the drunken and indulgent playboy in New York disappeared, and the cold, ruthless, serious and rigid black-faced boss in San Jose reappeared.

"How many days are you going to spend in your hometown?"

"Not sure, I'll let you know when the time comes. While typing, Du Qiu instructed: "Those gifts I bought in the United States, you help me send them to Cloud City, personally hand them over, and you will have a lot of work exchanges with them in the future, get to know them in advance." ”

"Okay. ”

"Find a reliable travel agency to help me get a tourist visa to Thailand. In addition, I have to find someone to get a permit to Hong Kong as soon as possible, and I may have to go there often to do financial things. ”

Applying for a Hong Kong pass is a work task that Du Qiu has already booked, but applying for a tourist visa to Thailand is a new task, Jiang Danfeng was a little surprised, sat up straight, and asked, "What are you doing in Thailand?"

"Go on a tour. ”

"Shall I go?"

Du Qiu hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You can also apply for a visa, and then you can talk about whether you go or not." ”

Jiang Danfeng hesitated when he saw Du Qiu for the first time, and was a little curious about what he was going to do in Thailand, but he didn't ask too much.

The two got on the plane from New York at 12:30 noon on April 17, and arrived in Beijing at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon on April 18.

"Why do you have to stay here?"

"Staying in a luxury hotel is either seeking psychological familiarity or sensory freshness. Du Qiu said as a matter of course: "If I change to another suite, why don't I choose a new hotel? ”

Jiang Danfeng felt that this logic sounded a little reasonable, but it seemed that there was no need to be so careful, so he sent him into the suite with a smile, and then put his two large suitcases in the living room, carried a backpack and said, "Du Qiu, I'll go back to school first, and then come back to get my luggage in the evening." ”

"Yes. ”

After Jiang Danfeng left, Du Qiu took a shower first, then picked up the phone, dialed Du Chunhua's office number, and reported after connecting: "Sister, I have arrived in the capital and just stayed in the hotel." ”

"Oh, you're back!"

When Du Qiu was not in Cloud City, he had to make a phone call home every day, although he had been away for a month, he did not feel alienated, so Du Chunhua was very happy that he was back, but there were not too many surprises, and after complaining a few words of half-truth, he asked: "When will you go back to Cloud City?" ”

"I'll go back to my hometown tomorrow to help my dad tear down the old house, and then go back to Cloud City. Du Qiu paused for a moment and said, "I went to the United States this time to earn some money, and I plan to buy some books in Spring City to bring back, help build a library for my father's elementary school, and maybe stay in my hometown for a few more days." ”

Du Chunhua felt that this was a very good idea, not only agreed very much, but also vigorously sponsored, said: "The hometown is inconvenient and there are few entertainment facilities, you don't just buy books for children to see, adults to read and buy some, especially those books that popularize science and get rich, so that the whole village can learn knowledge, if the money is not enough, I will donate another 10,000 yuan." ”

"No, I have the money, the main thing is that the people in Chuncheng are not familiar with it, and it may be delayed for a few days. ”

"Did you tell our father? let him send someone to Spring City to help you, there is nothing else in our village, there are many idlers. ”

"I haven't said it yet, I just got off the plane now, I'll go to Chuncheng tomorrow to inspect it first, and then call the village committee. ”

"That's fine. ”

Although he only stayed outside for a month, when Jiang Danfeng returned to school, he felt as if he had spent hundreds of years, his vision, ability and mentality had been improved by leaps and bounds, and the spirit of the whole person had changed.

Roommates and classmates also discovered Jiang Danfeng's changes, and they were amazed and envious, like stars and moons, surrounding her to inquire about the stories that happened in the United States.

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just working as a translator in San Jose, and I'm so tired that I'm busy dealing with all kinds of documents every day...... Because of the all-inclusive food and lodging, and the salary is settled in US dollars, I made a small profit and bought some discounted clothes, which are very expensive in China and are cheap in the United States......"

Jiang Danfeng reversed his previous publicity, introduced his work in the United States very vaguely, and then took out some small gifts bought in the airport duty-free shop and distributed them to everyone, saying: "I still have business to do in the evening, and I will find a better hotel on the weekend, and please gather together." ”

The gift is not expensive, but it is very exquisite, and it is full of famous brands, which quickly eliminated the jealousy between classmates, and a female classmate who lived next door asked: "Danfeng, have you helped the company that made the iview browser for so long, have you signed a contract?"

"Not yet, what's wrong?"

"Oh, you must seize the opportunity and sign a contract quickly, that company has a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan!"

"Yes, yes, many newspapers have reported in the past few days, saying that the minimum monthly salary of their company is 10,000 yuan!" Another roommate took a local newspaper in Beijing and said: "Look, this is today's report, saying that their company has only 8 people, but it has developed a world-class software, and the Americans plan to buy it for 5 million dollars." ”

Jiang Danfeng took a look at the newspaper and saw that the words on it were exaggerated and very inflammatory, saying that as long as Snapdragon Software Company recruits people - even if it is a secretary - the monthly salary will not be less than 10,000, and if it is really capable, it can even get share dividends, because the software is sold abroad, so there are thousands of dollars in dividends every month.

Thousands of dollars in dividends? Dream on......

If Du Qiu hadn't transferred $40,000 to the company before leaving New York, Chen Fatzi would have vomited blood in San Jose......

Jiang Danfeng is a person who knows the roots, he is completely indifferent to this kind of article, and he is about to return the newspaper to his classmates, when a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, feeling that this report is not groundless, but someone deliberately hyped it, and the initiator is likely to be Du Qiu, because it specifically mentions "secretary", and at the same time, one of the six people he recruited with a high salary was not a computer professional, but an editor of a national newspaper.

This guy had been unpretentious about himself before, and he didn't seem to have a good impression, but he suddenly came to the door that night and offered himself a salary of 10,000 yuan......

What a bastard who never makes a losing deal and takes advantage of everything!
