Chapter Twenty-Five: The Daddy's Computer
The bookshelf is too big, and it can't be lifted by relying on the strength of Wang Ming and Zhuang Murong alone. Wang Ming called Xiao Zilou and Lin Hao over as soon as possible.
Soon the two skipped class and came to Yuwen Bookstore, looking at the empty bookshelves, the two looked at Wang Ming speechlessly.
"Don't look at it, do it!" Wang Ming said.
Zhuang Murong was still silent without any expression, Xiao Zilou and Lin Hao could only join in with a wry smile, and the four of them struggled to lift all the bookshelves to the steps at the door.
"Boss, you even save the money for hired laborers, you're too stingy, aren't you?" Lin Hao gasped.
"Small money is money! Stop sitting and come in with me! He dragged the two into the bookstore, pointed to the books that were still on the ground and said to Lin Hao: "These books are handed over to you to be responsible, you go to find a car to pull these books to the school gate, set up a stall and sell them." β
Lin Hao looked at Wang Ming in amazement, thinking of the scene of his practice stall at the school gate, as if he saw two huge words "shame" pasted on his forehead. Xiao Zilou, who was watching the excitement on the side, shivered, turned his head and was about to run out.
"Xiaolou, your task is these bookshelves!" Wang Ming had already guessed Xiao Zilou's reaction, reached out and grabbed him by the collar, dragged him to the door, and pointed to the bookshelf.
Xiao Zilou said with a sad face: "Boss, I just met a little girl in the radio room, and it is the time when I need to communicate my feelings!" You just let me go, or I'll give you money, how much are these bookshelves, I'll buy them! β
"It's useless to give me less! It's not a question of money or not, it's a workout for you, and you'll understand my hard work in the future! If you can't sell it, I'll let Shi Xiaozhi tell that little girl that you are a big radish with a heart, and you have a few concubines in your hometown, and a baby parent! Wang Ming said.
Xiao Zilou was depressed and almost vomited blood, is this still the boss of the righteous Bo Yuntian?
Lin Hao saw that he couldn't hide, so he blinked his eyes and said, "Boss, we all have things to do, what about you?" β
"I'm going to Technopolis!" Wang Mingyi said in a rhetorical manner: "The most critical tool for opening an Internet cafΓ© is a computer, if you can handle it well, I can stay and sell things!" β
"Don't, boss, let's go, I don't know anything about computers!" Xiao Zilou shook his head and said.
Lin Hao smiled bitterly, and he was also a computer idiot.
"Senior, what are you doing here?" Shi Xiaozhi stood at the door with a small red bag on his back, looking at the foursome inside in amazement.
Wang Ming smiled and said, "It's nothing, sort it out here." The sooner the Internet cafΓ© opens, the sooner everyone can make money. β
"Senior, I brought you the money!" Shi Xiaozhi opened his handbag and was about to take out the money.
"Don't!" Wang Ming blocked.
Seeing Shi Xiaozhi's blank gaze, Wang Ming said in a low voice: "Wealth is not exposed, people come and go here, and it is dangerous to be seen!" β
Shi Xiaozhi stuck out his tongue and said, "It's still senior and smart, I didn't think of it that much at all!" β
In the corner, Xiao Zilou kicked Lin Hao and said, "Mouse, do you see it?" This is called selling cute, the little girl is powerful enough, and she can sell cuteness better than me! β
Lin Hao said in a low voice: "It's not just cute, but she can also pretend to be stupid, look at that innocent look, as if she really doesn't know the way!" I'm convinced, women are born to be masters of acting! This is even more of a movie queen! β
"Actually, girls, you don't need to sell cute, just squeeze the ditch!" Xiao Zilou spit out a smoke ring and said.
Lin Hao was a little dazed: "What a ditch!" β
Xiao Zilou squeezed a cigarette in his mouth and squeezed it on his chest and said: "This ditch, as long as there is this, ninety percent of the men will disarm!" β
Lin Hao raised a middle finger at Xiao Zilou.
At this time, Wang Ming and Shi Xiaozhi had already discussed, Wang Ming turned around and said to the two: "You hurry up and do things, Xiaozhi will accompany me to the computer city, let's go first!" β
The cigarette on Xiao Zilou's mouth fell to the ground, looked at the two who left with a low laugh, and said blankly: "Mouse, you said yesterday that the boss has changed, I thought it was a joke!" β
"See! When have you ever seen the boss have such intimate contact with a girl other than his sister-in-law? Lin Hao clasped his hands to his chest and smiled.
"What do you say? Do you want to tell your sister-in-law? "Xiao Zi Corridor.
Lin Hao stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Zilou's shoulder and said, "Second goods, the person who told me yesterday that the boss is the boss is you is the one who is about to defect so soon?" β
Xiao Zilou shook his head and said, "This world is changing too fast. The boss is such a pure person, and he has even begun to pay attention, I wonder if it is to comfort and comfort my sister-in-law! β
"Fuck off, don't drag me if you want to die!" Lin Hao gave Xiao Zilou a kick.
Xiao Zilou chuckled and said, "I'll just make a joke." Think about it, sister-in-law, Shi Xiaozhi, Wei Wei's man's wife, and Tian Nina! β
He couldn't say the word slut, so he could only pass it over, "Can the boss be busy?" β
Lin Hao said depressedly: "This is the boss's private matter, let's not be emotional!" Oh my book! β
Xiao Zilou looked at the bookshelf outside, lowered his head in frustration, and let out the same depressed sigh.
Not to mention the slander of those two guys behind their backs, Wang Ming and Shi Xiaozhi had a very happy conversation, especially for the new book mentioned by Wang Ming, Shi Xiaozhi kept asking: "Senior, when will your new book be written!" I can't wait! β
Wang Ming said with a smile: "I haven't started writing yet, waiting for the Internet cafΓ© to enter the orbit." β
Shi Xiaozhi lowered his head and said, "Boss, I told my mother about you wanting to write a book, and she promised me to get a book number for you!" β
Wang Ming looked at Shi Xiaozhi in surprise, the biggest difficulty in publishing a book in Huaxia is not money, not sales, not the quality of the work, but the book number. If you can't get a book number, you can write it all the time, and you won't have a chance to publish it. This is also the reason why many domestic writers are blooming outside the wall.
It is too difficult to publish books in the mainland, but it is very convenient in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and his original plan was to contact a publishing house in Hong Kong to publish it abroad, but he didn't expect Shi Xiaozhi to suddenly give her such a big surprise.
"Isn't this too troublesome, Auntie?" Wang Ming said.
Shi Xiaozhi bravely raised his head and said, "It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome at all." I also want to sort out all the poems published by my seniors and publish a book of poems! β
"I don't know who Aunt Lu Dao is?" Wang Ming asked curiously.
Shi Xiaozhi smiled lightly and said: "My mother is the editor-in-chief of Southern Publishing House, and she has a little power!" β
Wang Ming took a deep breath and said, "Then it's troublesome Auntie!" β
The editor-in-chief of the Southern Publishing House is not only a little powerful, but he is a person who can influence the fate of writers in several southern provinces, and in terms of influence, he is even greater than the officials of the local writers' association. After all, if you want to publish a book in the mainland, the only way is through the publishing house, and the writers' association plays very little role in this regard.
"It's okay!" Shi Xiaozhi said shyly.
"Xiaozhi, you are from the south, why do you speak such standard Mandarin?" Wang Ming asked curiously.
Shi Xiaozhi's eyebrows curled into a crescent moon shape: "Senior, do you also think that my Mandarin is the standard?" Hehe, my mother is from the north and has stipulated since I was a child that I must speak Mandarin. β
"Oh, doesn't your dad care?" Wang Ming asked.
Shi Xiaozhi chuckled and said: "Mom and Dad had an agreement before they got married, Mom has the final say on small things, and Dad has the final say on big things." β
"I see, that's pretty much it!" Wang Ming said.
Shi Xiaozhi laughed: "Senior, you are as naΓ―ve as my father!" β
"What do you mean?" Wang Ming said puzzled.
"It's very simple, there are only a few major events in a person's life!" Shi Xiaozhi said.
A cold sweat broke out on Wang Ming's forehead: "So, isn't everything in your family your mother is up to you?" β
"yes!" Shi Xiaozhi smiled like a little fox, "Senior, have you ever thought about it, in the future, do you want to say big things or small things?" β
Wang Ming shook his head busily: "I haven't thought about this question yet!" Don't talk about this, are you going home for the summer vacation? β
"Senior, do you want me to stay or go home?" Shi Xiaozhi asked.
Wang Mingxin said that Ya is not the same as you, you are endless. Thinking of this, Wang Ming looked at Shi Xiaozhi with deep eyes and said, "If I say I want you to stay!" β
"Then I'll stay!" Shi Xiaozhi blurted out.
"Brainless powder!" Internet terms came to Wang Ming's mind, and there was no doubt that this little girl was his brainless fan.
"When we get to the place, let's go check the computer first!" At the critical moment, the taxi rescued Wang Ming from the dire situation.
Shi Xiaozhi pouted and followed behind Wang Ming with some disappointment.
Chunchang City Science and Technology City is located near the Yellow River Road, in a few years, this will be the most prosperous electronic product trading market in Chunchang City, most of the places here are currently empty, there are only a few dealers, and a large part of them are distributing all kinds of pirated CDs.
Although computers entered China for a period of time, the speed of popularization was very slow, until the network transmission speed increased, broadband replaced dial-up Internet access, ushered in rapid development. Therefore, the current computer is still a semi-luxury jewelry, and it has not been able to enter the homes of ordinary people.
And those computer vendors are also in the kind of either not opening, opening for half a year!
Thick monitor, ugly computer case, VCD drive, 256 memory, ten G hard disk, just such a computer that no one wants to give away after a year, at this time it costs seven or eight thousand, and the more expensive brand machine is even more than 10,000.
Wang Ming was dumbfounded, this is really called money grabbing! It is no wonder that the computer manufacturers of later generations cried and shouted that there was no profit and did not catch up with the good times. I'm afraid that the white powder seller doesn't make as much money as they do now!
"Senior, the computers here are so expensive!" Shi Xiaozhi said in a low voice.
Wang Ming frowned and said: "It's more expensive than expected, let's take a look, here are all brand machines, there are assembly machines upstairs, it should be cheaper there!" β
The two of them are tender-faced, dressed as students, and most of the clerks regard the two as a little couple who are in love and have nothing to do, and occasionally a few of them are introduced, but they also look impatient.
The situation on the third floor is slightly better than that on the second floor, but the price is higher than Wang Ming's expectations, and after walking through almost ten stores, Wang Ming did not see a computer with a price tag of less than 5,000 yuan.
The more Wang Ming's face looked, if he really spent 6,000 yuan to buy this prepared computer, he would be brain-dead. According to Wang Ming's understanding, the probability of computer replacement is very fast, especially at the end of this year, a batch of computers will be eliminated in three months. In other words, he is spending a lot of money to buy these computers now, and in less than three months, these computers will be outdated, or they will be completely outdated.
"Senior, why don't we take a look at another place, it's too expensive here!" Shi Xiaozhi said.
Wang Ming frowned and said, "I'm afraid that all of Chunchang City is at this price!" β
The two walked forward while talking, and when they saw that they had reached the end and were about to turn back, the noise of the innermost shop attracted Wang Ming's attention.
