Gu Xiaoshi's holiday life became busy.

Learn English in the morning, eat at the fat man's house at noon, then learn to drive in the afternoon, and go home in the evening.

Today is the weekend, after a week of learning English and driving, it is rare to rest for two days, in the morning Gu Xiaoshi memorized words at home, after lunch, packed up, ready to go to the net.

The passport was handed over to Claudio, and it has been more than a week, and there is no news at all, "I heard the fat man say that the visa review is more complicated, and it is estimated that it will take a lot of time, right?" Gu Xiaoshi thought while walking, and just sat down when he came to the old place, and was about to turn on the machine, when he saw his sister running over and said, "Brother, someone is looking for you!"

"Xiaoyu is good, who is looking for brother?" Gu Xiaoshi touched his sister's head, he and his sister's names both have the word "Xiao" in the middle, one is called Xiaoshi, because he was found in the pile of stones, and the other is called Xiaoyu, because it happened to be raining lightly on the day he was born.

"I don't know, an uncle in yellow. "Xiaoyu is four years old, innocent and cute.

"Oh, let's go, go home with my brother. Gu Xiaoshi put away the stool and laptop, took his sister's hand, and walked home.

Gu Xiaoshi went home and saw that it was the guy who delivered the courier last time, wearing a red and yellow overalls and holding a large envelope in his hand.

Different from the previous two times, this time, Gu Xiaoshi couldn't wait to see what the Augustus Academy had sent, and was there any "thing" that he wanted the most?

But this time, it's no longer a letter, but a box, and Gu Xiaoshi can't say whether it's a cardboard box or a wooden box, anyway, it's quite comfortable to touch.

This is an A3 paper-sized black box, the center of the front is the familiar golden coat of arms, the box is not thick, about five centimeters, the surface has shallow lines, very high-grade, Gu Xiaoshi secretly complained: "These people love to do this." ”

The lid on the outside is connected together, and the inside is attached with a magnet, and when opened, there is a stack of documents inside, tied with a golden ribbon into a beautiful big bow. Opening the bow, Gu Xiaoshi sorted it out, a total of six things, three small envelopes and two pieces of A4-sized paper folded in half, and a booklet, without exception, all of them were gold seals on a black background, why did the Augustan Academy like to use this color so much, and I must figure it out when I have the opportunity in the future.

Gu Xiaoshi opened the first envelope first, this is a text message, written by Claudio to him, handwriting, Chinese characters are really good, the content is:

XX MONTH XX DAY OF XXXX YEAR

Gu Xiaoshi opened the second envelope, there was nothing in it, what? Is this a joke? shook the envelope vigorously, and a small note fell out, at least Gu Xiaoshi felt that it was like a small note......

Gu Xiaoshi picked up the small note, and after reading it clearly, his heart jumped suddenly!

What's this little note, it's obviously a check, a foreign exchange check from Bank of China, the amount column, with the euro symbol in front and 50,000 in the back. Gu Xiaoshi's hand holding the check was trembling, he had never seen so much money in his life, he was so excited in his heart, this is real money, the money has been sent, all of this is true? I can finally go out!

Finally calmed down, Gu Xiaoshi felt that these people were really careless, so much money can be sent by courier, aren't you afraid of losing it? Aren't you afraid of being taken away? What he doesn't know is that in order to give him convenience, this is a check transferred from a Swiss bank to the Bank of China, specifying the payment object, and the check has the name and ID number of the payment object, which is very special, and you must go to the bank with your ID card to place the account, and it is useless for others to get it.

Gu Xiaoshi carefully put the check away and opened the third envelope, which contained two things, a passport and an order.

Gu Xiaoshi opened his passport first. The passport is his, and there is a photo on the first page, a small fresh man. The second page is the visa, the upper left corner of the visa is a spherical around twelve small stars, Gu Xiaoshi has understood, this visa belongs to the Schengen visa, which means that with this Schengen visa, you can go to 26 Schengen countries without applying for a visa again, almost half of Europe, too powerful. What surprised Gu Xiaoshi even more was that the general visas were nothing more than student visas, tourist visas, family visit visas and business visas, which were valid for a minimum of three months and a maximum of one year, but the visa that the college helped him get was valid for five years, and it was a multi-entry visa, that is, he could enter and exit these 26 countries an unlimited number of times in these five years! In fact, he still underestimated the ability of Augustus College, and it was far underestimated, if it wasn't for the fact that it was too shocking, the student couldn't afford it, and the academy could directly help him get a green card, or citizenship.

The flight time on the ticket order is 11 a.m. on August 24, and the flight time is about 11 hours from the capital capital to Zurich, Switzerland, and according to the time difference, the capital is 6 hours earlier than Switzerland, that is, the destination is 4 p.m. local time, which is quite sufficient. Gu Xiaoshi's heart felt a warm feeling, it seems that this is prepared for him by the academy for free, and even the time has been chosen, it is really intimate, Gu Xiaoshi is glad that his choice, so far, it is quite correct.

This was followed by a special itinerary prepared for him by the college, which listed the time and routes, and reminded him of the time difference, followed by the high-speed train schedule for arriving in Zurich, and finally the city of Lucerne, where there was a shuttle bus specially arranged by the college for the start of the semester, and even a detailed map. Augustus College is located in a lake district in the eastern suburbs of Lucerne, there are no direct flights, you can only choose the nearest metropolis Zurich, and then transfer to the high-speed train, the distance between the two is not far, the time is very short, very convenient. The schedule also includes the schedule of the college buses, and highlights the latest departures to remind students not to miss them.

The admission letter is very simple, nothing more than a thank you for choosing this college, notifying the admission and so on, but there are three special points on it:

First, the registration deadline for new students is before 5 p.m. local time on August 25.

Second, new students must bring the admission notice when registering;

Third, new students should register with the admission notice to apply for a student card.

The last is a student handbook, Gu Xiaoshi didn't plan to read it now, he was going to take the time to study it carefully, the college was so righteous, he must not violate the school rules, the opportunity was so rare, shouldn't he cherish it?

Now, Gu Xiaoshi has more important things to do.

He put all the information in the box, put it in the drawer, picked up the envelope containing the check, took his ID card, and went out, he was ready to cash the check, there was no way, the money was only possible in his own hands.

There is a savings bank of the Bank of China in the community, which is small and has a light business, and it seems that it will not last long. There is usually no large amount of money flowing here, only some small deposit and withdrawal business piecemeal, hundreds to thousands, tens of thousands are very rare, Gu Xiaoshi is familiar with the way, he will occasionally come to help his mother save money, the change earned by the small shop, except for living expenses, are deposited into his mother's account and kept as housing payment.

Today is the weekend, the savings bank is deserted, there are only two people, a duty manager and a salesman, Gu Xiaoshi knows the duty manager, and has dealt back and forth several times.

Gu Xiaoshi came to the counter, gently took out the check from the envelope, took out his ID card, handed it to the saleswoman, and said, "Trouble you, I want to cash this out." ”

The saleswoman was a little puzzled, what cashed? took the check and ID card and looked at it carefully, and called out, "Ah!" This call startled the manager on duty in front of the computer on the side, and he quickly raised his head to look, what happened? Someone robbed the bank?

The female saleswoman hesitated and said, "Manager, look at this!"

The manager on duty rushed over in three steps and two steps, and then saw the check in the hand of the female saleswoman.

If he hadn't known Gu Xiaoshi, and the check had Gu Xiaoshi's name and ID number on the letterhead, the manager on duty would have had the urge to call the police. He had worked in the bank for a long time and had never seen this kind of foreign exchange check with his own eyes, but he remembered that he had seen it in the business training course of the branch.

After being told that this savings office could not handle the business of foreign exchange checks, Gu Xiaoshi was a little disappointed, and the manager on duty kindly reminded him that this kind of business can only be handled by the branch in the district, and today is the weekend, and the business window will be closed after three o'clock in the afternoon.

Asked the address of the branch, took out his mobile phone and looked at it, it was just a little past, there was still time, Gu Xiaoshi took back the check and ID card, turned around and ran out of the savings office, and went straight to his house.

Looking at the back of Gu Xiaoshi's departure, the manager on duty was in a trance for a while, what happened today? This big boy, who didn't seem to have much money, suddenly took out a large check, or in euros, did he go to extort others? This "other person" should be a foreign friend, otherwise how could he pay foreign currency, isn't this an international crime?

Gu Xiaoshi didn't care what others thought, went home and took out a thick book, put the check into the page, put it in his bag, walked out of the room and said hello to his mother, didn't say what it was, and left in a hurry.
