【158】The Proprietress and the Child Laborer (I)
Night falls.
Sometimes the dark night gives people anticipation, some people are about to go out on a date, some people are about to form a group to go [***], some people are ready to pay the public food once a week, and some people are about to feast on art films and paper preparations...... The dark night sometimes makes people helpless, such as the above-mentioned people failed to date, [***] were swept away by pornography, and they were shot in a few seconds after paying the public grain, and when they were halfway through watching art films, their parents suddenly pushed the door in...... On this night, Mo Wei belonged to a helpless group of people.
The proprietress and Yun Mu have one thing in common, when they are in a bad mood, they will go to the river to blow the wind.
Doing so doesn't make the mood feel better immediately, and life has to go on, what should come will come, what should go will go, and no one can expect to change the world by posing by the river.
As an adult, the minimum standard is to adapt to the world, to self-regulate, to give up what cannot be given up, and to accept what is unacceptable. Of course, you can also go to extremes, such as committing suicide.
The proprietress was not fragile enough to die because of some setbacks, and after stopping by the river for twenty minutes, she straightened her long hair that had been scattered in the wind, and the moment her hair was straightened out, her mood seemed to be straightened out. The gloom on her face was replaced by a thousand charms, and she drove away.
As the car passed through an old street, it slowed down suddenly.
Through the car window, the proprietress looked at the place called Star Stationery.
⊙v⊙*⊙v⊙ the predecessor of Star Stationery Store, is the first generation of Hongyan Internet café, and it is also the place where the proprietress made her career. Six years ago, when the millennium bell struck, the proprietress rented the store and ran it with 30 computers.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the business is bleak, at that time, the boss lady was a boss, a network manager, and a cleaner, and she belonged to a legendary figure who was both a CEO and a wage earner. Of course, the result of this was that her body gradually became unbearable, but the proprietress at that time was a thrifty person, and she felt that it was too wasteful to hire a webmaster to stay all night, so she came up with a very financially savvy solution, and began to abuse child labor.
The first child labor is Yunmu.
Two millennia, people have a sense of novelty about the Internet that is difficult to use in words. At that time, the cost of Internet access was very expensive, and many children were so shy that they could only pass by the door of the Internet café repeatedly, and you could easily read in their eyes that the desire was so strong that it almost burned the whole world.
If you can go online without spending money, it's a pie-in-the-sky thing. It can be said responsibly that in that era, the profession of network management was undoubtedly a fighter in the minds of many teenagers.
For a while, Yunmu had an ideal: to be a network administrator when he grows up!
This ideal was successfully realized without waiting for him to grow up.
As we all know, a natural shooter has an Olympic spirit, and in the summer vacation after graduating from elementary school, under Yuan Ze's surprised gaze, Yun Mu didn't bring a dime, and cheekily went to discuss with the boss: Sister, how about I do it for you as a network administrator?
Opportunities belong to those who have courage, and the proprietress was moved by his sincerity.
At that time, the proprietress was very impressed by this little animal that looked a little pink and jade, and before that, Yun Mu would go to the Internet café every weekend to walk in a chic manner, and even she taught her how to type. And the reason why the proprietress was impressed by Yun Mu was that this product was too stubborn.
After registering QQ for the first time, Yun Mu didn't know where to add a netizen named Qiqi.
This is nothing unusual, but the problem is that a month later, he still has only such a netizen.
One day, the proprietress finally couldn't help it and asked curiously: "Why don't you add a few more people?" ”
Yun Mu: "Let's get her done first." ”
Hostess: "What if this man is a man?" ”
Yun Mu: "I believe she is a woman. ”
Proprietress Lady: "What if she doesn't look good?" ”
Yun Mu: "It's okay, I didn't plan to see her." ”
The proprietress said: "If you can't do this, add dozens of eyebrows first, and do it in a multi-pronged way." ”
Yun Mu: "No, if you don't sweep a house, how can you sweep the world?" ”
The proprietress was immediately impressed by the domineering spirit of this goods: "Okay, how did you talk?" ”
Yun Mu stroked his hair on the spot: "She finally said the second sentence to me." ”
The proprietress didn't understand at the time: "What do you mean?" ”
Yun Mu was suddenly terrified: "I'll show you the record." ”
At that time, Internet cafes did not have a restore wizard, and the chat history could be flipped to the same machine. A person as paranoid as a natural shooter has always sat on the same machine, and once he gets used to it, he refuses to change it. On that computer, the chat history between him and Qiqi over the past month was clearly displayed.
Yun Mu: "Hello. ”
Qiqi: "Hello. ”
Yun Mu: "Hello. ”
Qiqi: "Hello. ”
Yun Mu: "Hello. ”
Qiqi: "Hello. ”
Above, infinitely repeated.
The most incredible thing is that such a "hello" is repeated very regularly, and it is only sent once each time. In other words, every time Yun Mu chatted with Qiqi, he would say hello with "hello", and then there was no follow-up. Until the next time we meet online, I will type another "hello", and there will be no follow-up, and so on.
Flipping through the chat history, the proprietress was shocked, she had never seen such a hard way to chat.
Seeing the latest record, the proprietress was happy.
The record at the time was as follows:
Yun Mu: "Hello. ”
Qiqi: "Hello. ”
Silent.
A minute later, Qiqi: "Can you say something else?" ”
There was silence again, and Yun Mu never recovered.
The proprietress couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Everyone and the girls have taken the initiative to speak, so don't you say anything else?" ”
Yun Mu: "I haven't thought about it yet. ”
Boss: "Is it that complicated, just say a few words." ”
Yun Mu: "How can it be done, it's too casual." ”
Hostess: "So what do you want?" ”
Yun Mu: "I'm going to go back and write a poem, and I'll send it to her next time." ”
The proprietress said: "Don't mind, you ignored her again today?" ”
Yun Mu: "Also, her online time is very unstable, and I don't know when she will be on next time." ”
Proprietress said: "You have to strike while the iron is hot and get on good terms with her as soon as possible." ”
Yun Mu: "I don't know how to get it. ”
Hostess: "Why don't you let me help you?" ”
Yun Mu: "Do you know what she thinks psychologically?" ”
Boss: "Nonsense, I'm also a woman." ”
Yun Mu: "Okay, please. ”
So the proprietress bent over and cocked her hips, stretched her hands over Yun Mu's left and right shoulders, her chest against the back of his neck, and helped him type: "Meimei, how old are you?" ”
Yun Mu was inspired at that time, why did Lao Tzu forget to ask about this stubble before?
Qiqi was much more sophisticated than Yun Mu, and asked rhetorically: "What about you?" ”
The proprietress said: "Do you want to lie to her and say that you are eighteen?" ”
Yun Mu: "No. ”
Hostess: "How old are you?" ”
Yun Mu: "Twelve. ”
The proprietress typed: "Twelve." ”
Seventy-seven: "Little brat, I'm fifteen." ”
Yun Mu suddenly felt inferior: "What should I do?" ”
The proprietress was calm and relaxed, typing: "Female junior, hugging gold bricks, we are really fateful." ”
Yun Mu immediately admired the proprietress so much, and felt that this eldest sister was too awesome, and she was flirting with a rhyme.
Sure enough, the fifteen-year-old ignorant girl opposite obviously couldn't stand the fool, so she was tricked: "Hehe, you're so funny." ”
Next, the proprietress talked wildly, made Qiqi dizzy, and took the initiative to make an appointment to chat with Yun Mu next Saturday night. Yun Mu only felt that life was as beautiful as fog, rain and wind, and the sudden happiness made him in the clouds. On that day, the proprietress had a very high status in his mind.
Later, it was Yunmu who took the initiative to apply to be a network administrator.
The proprietress thinks that this young man's stubbornness is also an advantage, at least he will not fish for three days and dry his nets for two days. So Yun Mu became the first network manager of Hongyan Internet Cafe, no salary, and the benefit is that he can access the Internet at any time.
It stands to reason that a child working at night every day will not be recognized by his parents, and no one knows what happened to Yun Mu's family that year, in short, no one stands up to stop it. That summer, Yun Mu learned to smoke. Every night that summer, people can see a legendary network manager appear on time, the network manager is a little bigger, with a cigarette in his mouth, no matter how you look at it, it is a model of non-mainstream in the early days of our country.
It's strange to say that since Yun Mu became a network administrator, the business of the Internet café has been getting better and better, and it was once full. The proprietress felt that Yun Mu was the lucky star of this child, and there was a kind of prosperous wife luck comparable to that of a prosperous husband. In addition, this child is very persistent, standing firm from 10 o'clock to 10 o'clock in the morning every night, working diligently, never embezzling public funds, at most blatantly asking for a bag of Hongta Mountain.
At that time, the proprietress had a heinously black belly, and she never persuaded Yun Mu to quit smoking, she was secretly having fun most of the time, and her conscience had long been eaten by dogs. The proprietress can sleep every day, and the little day is simply the legendary sleep until you wake up naturally, counting the money and counting the cramps in your hands.
⊙v⊙*⊙v⊙ white BMW stayed outside the Star Stationery store for a few minutes and started again.
The car that had been going straight suddenly changed its route at the intersection in front of it, made an abrupt turn, and arrived at a construction site 100 meters away from the back gate of Shuguang Middle School.
The construction site, which is said to be the site of the central square of the Lanjiang city, was once the site of the second-generation Hongyan Internet café.
The amorous style that was finally brewed by the river disappeared without a trace, and at this moment, she seemed to be just a pure, nostalgic woman. Sitting in the car, the proprietress had a trace of remorse, she regretted passing by the Star Stationery Store, and even more regretted that she had driven here by a ghost.
It can be seen that the proprietress is very able to face the reality, her remorse quickly disappeared, and the surname Suo got out of the car and looked at the construction site that had left memories for two years.
The second-generation Hongyan Internet café had 100 machines, and the proprietress was full of ambition at that time, and her Internet café was quite large-scale in Lanjiang. It's a pity that this woman has always been difficult to change the essence of picking the door, originally this scale required several staff, but she only hired a female network administrator.
At that time, Yun Mu, who was in junior high school, didn't have time to go to the Internet café to hang out, and he was bent on going to No. 2 Middle School to find a field, and he was practicing in his spare time. The proprietress often feels as tired as a dog, and at this time, she especially misses the free child labor.
Who said that students and office workers are eager for weekends, and the proprietress of that season is looking forward to weekends more than anyone else, counting the time like looking forward to the stars and the moon every time. Because after Yun Mu practiced on the weekend, she would go to the Internet café for a walk, and then the proprietress would definitely let him work for free on the grounds of "everyone has such a good relationship, you can help", and then she always slipped away and slept back to sleep under various excuses...... Until one weekend, a little story happened.
