Chapter 133, a different Christmas Eve

"It's so annoying, happiness came too suddenly, and I didn't prepare anything. ”

When he walked out of the school gate of the Normal University, looking at the snowy streets, Ji Xiao muttered.

Li He smiled beside him and asked, "Prepare? What do you want to prepare? You are not a believer, do you have to prepare any rituals?"

Chen Jing glanced at him and said, "I don't understand this, since it's Christmas, of course I have to prepare some Christmas gifts." What's the point of walking down the street like this, even if you get to church?"

Li He said: "It's simple, it's not dark yet, can't you just buy it?"

"A science student is a science student, and if you transfer to a liberal arts class, you will still be a science student!" Chen Jing continued to stare at Li He with rolling eyes, and said, "What's the point of buying it temporarily? The most important thing about giving a gift is not the content, but the process of careful preparation." Forget Ji Xiao, such an elm head will not understand. ”

It turned out to be like this, seeing Ji Xiao and Chen Jing walking in front arm in arm, and He Xizhou and Xia Yi kept their distance and followed behind them, Li He smiled, walked in front of a few people, turned around and blocked their way, and then stretched out his hand and said, "I have an idea, come, give me all the money on you." Don't worry, I just haven't kept it for the time being, and I'll return it to you in a while. ”

Ji Xiao looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

Li He said: "Since it is too late to prepare gifts, let's change the way and have a meaningful Christmas." Give me the money first, all of it, don't leave a penny on me. Don't worry, I won't ask for your money. ”

Although I don't understand what Li He is going to make trouble, Ji Xiao really didn't worry that Li He would ask for their money, and at this time, Li He should need support, so she is also happy to be the first person to support him. So she fumbled in her pocket, took out a small wallet, and handed it to Li He. Chen Jing also took out her money, but she didn't bring a wallet, but put the money in a few pockets, and when she took it out, she couldn't believe Li He's expression, not really believing it, but she didn't want him to go too well.

Li He smiled and counted Chen Jing's money, and said, "Why does the little girl go out with so much money?

Chen Jing pouted and said, "Don't you understand the principle of not putting all your eggs in the same basket? I didn't even ask why I gave you all the money, where did you get so many words?"

He Xizhou also touched his body up and down, and took out all his scattered money and handed it to Li He. The big difference from Chen Jing's neatly arranged money is that the money in Hexizhou is not only scattered, but also crumpled and stacked in a mess, and it is certain that he doesn't even know how much money he has. And Xia Yi also has a small wallet like Ji Xiao, she is more hesitant, but thinking that this senior should not be a liar, she finally handed over the wallet to Li He.

Li He packed up all their money, stretched out his hand and said, "Where is the mobile phone? ”

"No!" Chen Jing said angrily, "Do you think everyone is just like you?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. Li He apologized, it was his negligence, in his previous life, mobile phones were just the most common communication tools, even elementary school students had them, but at this time in 98, mobile phones were still considered luxuries. After receiving the money, Li He explained: "Let's play a game, it's 6:40 p.m., and we have to come back at 9:40, so that we can ensure that we can return to the university before 10 o'clock." That is, we have 3 hours, during which none of us is allowed to spend money, but we have to prepare gifts for each other. That is to say, now we have no money on us, and if we want to prepare gifts, we must find a way to earn money to buy gifts within 3 hours, so that we can test our ability to adapt to changes, and secondly, it can also reflect our hearts. ”

Ji Xiao, Chen Jing, Hexizhou and Xia Yi looked at each other.

I have to say that this is a little trick by Li He, but this is a very good little trick, and this little trick is much more interesting than just going to see the church together and having a Western festival that has nothing to do with him. But it is also very difficult, after all, the time is too short, and for them, it is still a foreign land that they are not familiar with.

Li He said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, even if we still don't make money in the end, it doesn't mean that our ability is not good, or our intentions are not enough." After all, the time is too short, and there is no preparation. Anyway, just give it a try, and it's not a bad thing to understand how difficult it is to make money. We now take the bus to the church, just 3 stops away, a straight line, if you get separated for a while and don't have money to sit, you will have no problem walking back along the way. Next to the church is a famous flower square in the city, there are shopping malls, office buildings, and property communities near the square. Nine-and-a-half is the end time of our game, and whether or not the predetermined goal is achieved, we will meet in the square and come back. Don't be staring, let's get started. ”

"Try it," Chen Jing raised her face and said eagerly, "Who is afraid of whom!"

Ji Xiao took Chen Jing's hand and said, "I team up with Chen Jing, I think we two young and invincible beautiful girls will definitely be able to think of a way." ”

He Xizhou turned his head and muttered a few words to his little sister Xia Yi, and said, "Then I will team up with Xia Yi." ”

Li He was dumbfounded for a while, daring to love him and become a loner? Seeing his depressed appearance, the friends laughed happily. Everyone got on the bus, but there was no money anyway, so everything was handed over to Li He. As a result, the bus went very slowly, and after two stops, it was blocked, because the square side, that is, the section near the church, is now more crowded, and the traffic police commanded on the spot, so they could only stop the vehicle to make way for pedestrians.

Seeing that it was blocked, Li He and the others also got out of the car in advance and walked all the way. Although Li He has no sense of Christmas, as he remembers, at the turn of the century, China was greatly influenced by foreign culture, and there was a general stage of blind yearning for foreign things. In those years, people were very popular for foreign festivals, especially at Christmas, the street was far more lively than the traditional Spring Festival, this wind has been blowing for several years, until the late 00s gradually calmed down, the day of the birth of Jesus, will still be fully used by merchants and young people who find excuses to celebrate the holiday.

At this time, the closer they got to the church, the more lively they felt, and the friends couldn't help but be a little excited, after all, compared with the small city of Faith City, the provincial city of Guangyin City can be regarded as a big city. In the same way for Christmas, in the City of Faith, where young people find their own place to live, in the provincial capital, the Flower Square near the church is already overcrowded. And that's just one of the busiest locations in the provincial capital.

Finally arrived at the Flower Square, and just after seeing the spire and cross of the church, Li He and the others felt a little unable to walk. There are too many people, all kinds of people wearing Santa hats, masks, blowing small trumpets in their mouths, and people with snow spray in their hands are inexplicably excited and noisy, all of them are very happy and happy. Well, people just find a reason to come out and party, but as for what exactly they are partying for, does it matter?

There are a lot of stalls selling things in the square, and they are usually not allowed to set up stalls here, but no one cares about them on this day. Almost all of the stalls do not have a fixed stall, and the things sold are all kinds of gadgets that suit the occasion, there is no uniform price for these things, a bottle of snow spray can be sold for 10 yuan a bottle at the beginning, and as time goes by, the price will continue to drop, and even the impatient stall owners will sell half and give it away. As for the apples wrapped in wrapping paper, it is even more a straight dive, and one is cheaper than the other.

When I arrived at the square, I agreed on the location, and at the right time, the five friends went their separate ways.

Ji Xiao and Chen Jing took a turn around, and they decided to try their luck at those stalls selling gadgets.

"Two beauties, what to buy? I have sterling silver jewelry here, you see this cross, not only is it pure silver, but also look at the workmanship, or it has been dipped in holy water, to ward off evil spirits and pray for blessings, and it is invincible. Very cheap ......"

"We don't buy it, we just want to ask ......"

"Don't buy it, don't get in the way of my business, you blocked my stall, get out of the way!"

After trying several times, they were all treated the same way, Chen Jing couldn't help but sigh and said, "Li He's bad idea, just like this, how can we make money? ”

Ji Xiao smiled faintly and said, "At least we also realize that it is not easy to make money." I don't think we had the right target, and the stall owner looked like a professional peddler at first glance, and he could speak as if it was a sin for us not to buy his stuff. And their things are selling well, and such a person will definitely not spend money to ask us to help him sell things. If we are looking for it, we have to find the kind of thing that doesn't sell very well, and the boss is not very professional, and he needs someone to help him shout. ”

When Chen Jing heard this, she nodded again and again and said: "It makes sense, we'd better find the kind of college students who want to come out to make money, they have no experience, and they must be eager to get rid of the goods and return to their roots." Look, those people must be students, the boys are busy chatting with the girls, and the girls are not concentrating on business, in fact, Li He shouldn't have taken our money, otherwise we can dump their goods. ”

Now it's useless to complain about the lack of money, Ji Xiao and Chen Jing walked in front of the stall that seemed to be set up by college students, this time they learned the previous lesson, didn't ask anything, and said directly: "Let's help you sell these things, don't get paid, just after selling the things, let's choose a few things from the remaining goods as a souvenir." ”

And in the stunned eyes of several people, Ji Xiao, who has always been quiet and silent, took the lead in shouting: "Hey, let's come and take a look, Christmas Eve sends peace fruits, romantic snow flies all over the sky, sweet and happy for another year!"

didn't expect Ji Xiao to have this hand, Chen Jing also gave Ji Xiao a thumbs up and helped shout.

I have to say that the words youthful and invincible beautiful girl are really not in vain.
