Chapter 35: Drawing the Sword to Help
On Monday, it was said that there was no more than a hundred hours left for Yang Qianye.
The fee Li Muyuan asked for was a bribe in disguise, she knew it in her heart, but she was helpless. The dirty rules behind the glitz are so non-negotiable in the face of a stretched life, there is no other way but to learn to bow your head.
I don't want to and can't lose this opportunity, the high salary hangs in front of her reach, and she thinks that her mother is still lying in the nursing home, and her life is in her own hands, she wants to cry without tears.
She also had the idea of embezzling Min Yuhua's money, but as soon as the idea bubbled, she slapped herself hard. I also thought about restarting the live broadcast, those bastards let them perform whatever they wanted, but they couldn't cross the bottom line of self-esteem.
Unable to concentrate on work in a children's clothing store in the afternoon, how to resign from the boss is another thorny problem.
It was easy to stay up until the end of work, she went to the gym in advance, wanting to discuss with the gym to see if she could advance half a year's salary, and then exchange it for a whole year's part-time job.
However, she was too naΓ―ve, and her proposal was rejected by her boss as soon as she said it.
"You live and learn, you think you want to get a fitness card, collect money first and then spend, what are you daydreaming about, and go to work."
She felt so incompetent. Chocolate hinted at getting ready a month in advance, but there was nothing to do about it.
I went back to the apartment dejected, not even in the mood to eat.
The next two days were even more low, and she could only watch the opportunity at her fingertips slowly slip away. The reality of society is that everything can only be solved with money, and people are only related to each other by interests. Maybe it was a mistake to come to Lucheng, she could have continued to stay in Lancheng, working full-time during the day and carrying clay at night, and probably could barely support it.
But Lucheng has something she has been looking forward to for seventeen years.
There is no endless road, what she didn't expect was that it was Da Mao who reached out this time.
At noon on Saturday, she left the apartment as usual to go to the children's clothing store, and was stopped at the door as soon as she arrived.
"Yang Qianye!"
Da Mao is on vacation today and is wearing civilian clothes. Seeing that she was sluggish, she looked depressed before hitting the door for two consecutive days, so she took the initiative to ask.
"You're not at work today?" Seeing that Da Mao was not wearing overalls, she asked.
"Take a vacation."
"Why don't you go out and play?"
"It's nothing fun, it costs money to go out, and it's just here to consume. The housekeeper center can watch TV and blow air conditioning, and you can also rub the meal at some point. β
"That's nice...... Hey, I have to go to work. β
"How's the interview?"
Chiba shook her head helplessly.
"They didn't take a fancy to you?" Da Mao's tone was similar to a hug, and he seemed to be quite dissatisfied with Huanyu's vision of choosing people.
"It's not ...... Forget it, maybe you're unlucky, wait until next time. β
"Does that really look like it?"
Chiba stretched the corners of one side of her mouth and drooped her head. "They are willing to give me a chance, but they have to pay a sum of money." Then he told the conversation in the coffee shop as it was, and Da Mao clenched his fists angrily.
"It's all so disgusting, it looks like a snake will bite!"
"What, you've been bitten too?"
"Come here." Da Mao pulled her outside the community, confirmed that she had stepped out of the monitoring range, and whispered, "I also encountered this kind of thing at the beginning. β
"Is it here?"
Da Mao nodded. "Hmm. Because I am from other places and from the countryside, I don't look down on me. But my master liked me, so he tried to help me stay. β
"What's the solution?"
Da Mao rubbed three fingers. "Money, money can make ghosts grind. It's better to be a security guard here than anywhere else, just like you're in now. The stewards were hard to get votes, so they turned their backs on us and asked for favors. If you don't give it, then I'm sorry to leave. Give, just leave the errand. And they are not afraid that I will shake things out, after all, both sides violate the law, and report to the leader that they have no good fruit to eat. At the beginning, Master helped me fight for a long time, and in the end, I took 3,000 yuan to keep the person. β
"Damn, won't the leaders of these people come out to take care of it?" Chiba said indignantly.
"Who cares, which crotch is clean, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp. These things will pass with a blind eye, and as long as they do not violate their own interests, the officials will not interfere. β
"I blame that I don't have any money and can't afford to play this game."
"I advise you to still get a job, and if you have income, you are not afraid that you will not be able to get it back."
"But I can't take out so much, I wanted to beg him to see if he could give him leniency, but I guess it's hanging when I hear you say this. Without me, there are other people on top, and it's so hard to find a better job now. β
"Yes, if you know that, you have to take it down! How much is missing, I'll lend it to you. β
"You? No, no, no, how can I borrow it from you. Chiba waved his hand again and again, and his face turned red.
"My money is fake, why can't I borrow it."
"That's not what it means, your money is not easy to come by, and besides, it's not a small amount."
"I'm borrowing you not for you, and I'll be over paying it back then."
"No, no, no, I can't trouble you, I'll think of another way."
"If you don't agree, you won't treat me as a friend, then from now on, you should maintain the relationship between the owner and the security guard."
Big hairy face doesn't seem like a joke.
"Da Mao, I ......"
"If I open my mouth to you tightly, won't you borrow it?"
"Borrow, of course."
"That's not the end of it."
ββ¦β¦ Do you have any spare money? β
Da Mao patted his chest. "Yes, in addition to the ones sent home every month, I still have some savings. You do the math, how much worse? β
Chiba was still hesitant: "You trust me so much?" At the same time, Da Mao's uprightness also made her feel guilty, compared to this sincerity and trust, her habit of always being wary of people is not frank enough, at this time with Da Mao, even the shadow on the ground is half short.
"Of course, you can't run. Even if you run away, but lose some money, I will know what I am worth in your heart. β
"I'm not going to run!" She said seriously, as if she were taking an oath.
"Oh, just kidding, take it seriously. How much worse, I'll take it for you. β
She arched her eyebrows, her eyes pointing upwards, and did a rough calculation. "The children's clothing store still owes me a few thousand, and if you can, it should be enough to lend me five thousand."
"Okay, then you go to work first, and come back to the housekeeper center in the evening to find me, and I'll pick it up later."
She really couldn't find the right words to express her gratitude and joy in her heart, and bowed to Da Mao.
"I don't know how to thank you, but you really helped me a lot, and I will pay you back as soon as I get paid."
"Small."
The thing that couldn't be solved by racking his brains was actually solved by Da Mao.,This is the first time since Chiba entered the society to understand the cruelty of the law of competition.,And the true feelings between people.γ Compared with the excitement of getting work, she is more grateful to have made friends like Da Mao.
However, the owner of the children's clothing store was not so polite, and suddenly offered to resign, he was very angry, and he had no intention of retaining. In other words, 30 percent of wages are deducted as a punishment. Chiba is at a loss and can only accept it.
plus Da Mao's 5,000, and finally made up 10,000.
Early on Sunday morning, she went to the self-service machine to transfer the account to Li Muyuan, and just after checking the receipt, she received Li Muyuan's message - company address, handler, precautions, and a fake "Welcome to Huanyu".
Five-figure RMB, in exchange for six words without warmth, Li Muyuan, who abused her power, earned a gray income again, and she also got the job she wanted. This was the first lesson that the workplace taught her β use is collaboration.
As Li Muyuan arranged before, Monday was just to go through the onboarding procedures and familiarize himself with the environment.
Walking out of the office building with the number plate and looking back at the towering building, she came out of an unreal state of mind. Just now, I didn't even have time to visit the office environment of Huanyu, and I didn't have time to get to know my colleagues, as if I was in a dream.
She told Shangguan Yu the good news first, but she didn't stay too long on "One Less Knife", because there was still someone who needed to be thanked and share this joy, and she decided to treat him to a good meal.
packed dry pot shrimp and sauce pork ribs, Da Mao couldn't go out because she was on duty, so she had to invite people to the eleventh floor. This is also the first time that Da Mao has stepped into the owner's house for so long in Sakura Apartment.
Apparently, he was blown away by the decoration of 1101. Standing guard day and night to patrol the interior of the house turned out to look like this, he was excited and curious to lie on the floor-to-ceiling window and look down, the distance is the river view, usually in less than four square meters of the sentry box is as small as a sesame seed.
Chiba laid out the tablecloth and put the food on the table, because Da Mao couldn't drink on duty, the two of them replaced the wine with water.
"Congratulations!" Da Mao took the lead in raising his glass, and the coke in the cup was a cheap drink, but Lu Meiqin's cup was worth a lot.
"Thank you Da Mao, without your help, the work would be yellow."
"It's easy to say, they all go out to work, and they should take care of each other."
She got up and pulled a note out of her bag.
"I made an IOU......"
"What is this for, I don't want it, I trust you to lend it to you, so that you don't treat me as a friend."
She grabbed Da Mao's hand and forced the IOU to slip it through.
"No, it's because we're friends."
"It's a lot of life."
"I have to take it, otherwise I won't be sure. You can rest assured that you will be repaid as soon as you receive your first salary. β
"It's okay, you use it, when you don't have to worry about it, I'm not in a hurry."
"You can really save money, send so much money to your family every month, and still have a surplus on your hands. I can't do it, I spend more than I earn, and I can't save no matter how frugal I am. β
Da Mao picked up the shrimp and put it in his mouth, chewing it with taste, seeing Yang Qianye happy, his heart also blossomed.
"Anyway, tell me when you're in a hurry to use the money, I still have both at the gym, so I can pay it back first."
"You still go to the gym?"
"Go, it's so long at night, of course you have to hurry up and make money."
Da Mao's eyes drooped, and he looked up after a while and asked, "Can you tell me why you suddenly need money so much?" β
The chopsticks stopped at the edge of her mouth, and Chiba bit her upper lip.
"Forget it, don't tell me, just eat." Sensing her hesitation, Da Mao immediately changed the topic.
"My mom was lying in the hospital and I had to work hard to earn money to keep her alive."
"What's wrong with Auntie? Suddenly sick or something happened? β
She shook her head and calmly uttered those three words.
"Vegetative."
The chopsticks fell on the table with a click, and Da Mao opened his mouth and looked at her in great surprise.
"So the last time I suddenly went back was for Auntie?"
"Well, seventeen years, she's been in bed for seventeen years, and she doesn't know anything. Before, the body had a sudden condition, and I had to rely on expensive drugs to maintain my life. β
"Then how did you get here in the past seventeen years?"
"Welfare home, I grew up in a welfare home."
"Where's your dad?"
"I don't have a father, I'm dead."
"What about the other relatives?"
"No, I should say I don't know, I came to Lucheng to find the answer."
"What's the answer?"
When the words came to his lips, Chiba still swallowed the secret back.
"Eat quickly, it's cold."
