The downstairs of the deep boat is bustling and noisy, and there are brand stores along the street, as well as roadside stalls. Ning Qian hurried to the tax bureau, and had no time to take care of the excitement, so she hurried to the bus stop, but was pulled back. It turned out to be a vendor selling plantains.

Despite wearing a straw hat, her face was tanned and her clothes were covered in dust. She held up a handful of change and said to Ning Qian: "Pretty girl, can you help me exchange these loose coins for a hundred yuan a piece, I finally earned such a little money, and it is very inconvenient to carry it." Ning Qian really didn't have time, but seeing that she was still taking out money from her trouser pocket, it was indeed all bits and pieces, and her face was full of pleading, she really couldn't bear it, so she took out a hundred yuan from her bag.

"I'm sorry, I don't have much money, only a 100 yuan one." Ning Qian was a little ashamed. She didn't dare to carry too much money with her, and after exchanging this 100 yuan, the money she carried with her was only enough to take the bus.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." The vendor selling bananas said gratefully. She quickly took the hundred-yuan bill handed over by Ning Qian, quickly counted her change, counted it loudly while pointing, Ning Qian saw that it was indeed a hundred yuan change, and took it. Another vendor next to him said to the banana seller, "Have you made a mistake, count it again!" The banana seller said, "Yes, I'll count them again." He snatched back the change in Ning Qian's hand, and handed it back quickly: "That's right, thank you, thank you, thank you, you're such a kind person!" ”

Ning Qian took the change and rushed to the bus stop, just about to buy a ticket, when he suddenly found that the pile of change he had just received was actually only a ten-yuan paper wrapped in it, all of which were cut into newspapers about the size of the change! Ning Qian turned her head and ran towards the vendor just now, but she didn't see the banana girl and the other vendor next to her!

The aunt who collected the money at the door of the food stall downstairs secretly beckoned to Ning Qian, she walked over, and the aunt said to her: "You are already the tenth to be recruited today!" Where are they exchanging money, they are cheating money! They work in a class of two people at a time, and when they are cheated, they leave and change to another class. The people who found it were unrecognizable. Auntie hinted with her eyes – "The other two people there now are the next shift." Forget it, don't look for them, there are many of them, and they will avoid disasters. ”

Ning Qian was really angry in her heart: If I was greedy and deceived, I deserved it! But I'm here to help her, how can you use my kindness to deceive me? Is the human heart really so unpredictable!

Ning Qian, who came back from the tax bureau, reminded everyone not to change change for the vendors downstairs as soon as she entered the office. Liu Zhiying said loudly: "Oh, even you have been deceived!" I've been scammed too! She said I gave her 100 yuan, and she gave me 120 yuan in change, so I changed it to her, and I was deceived! ”

"Huh? If she told me 100 for 120, I wouldn't have changed it, because I wouldn't believe it! Ning Qian was very angry.

"Look, even a liar will see people talk about people, and tell ghosts, she knows at a glance that you are greedy and Xiao Ning is kind." Sister Fang was joking with Liu Zhiying while walking over and putting her arm on Xiao Ning's shoulder. "Sister Fang appeases and appeases you, after work today, go to my house to drink soup!"

Sister Fang is more and more fond of this girl, her house is very close to the deep boat, you can reach it by foot, and she began to often take Ning Qian to her house to eat and chat. Ning Qian also took the opportunity to learn more about the financial department and the company from Sister Fang, and asked her about the basic skills of the financial profession.

The weather forecast is that there will be a typhoon on the weekend, and my parents are very worried, so they called Ning Qian to go home, and Ning Qian said: "It's okay, I'm very safe in the unit, and I want to prepare the required documents again on the weekend." Mom and Dad told her not to go out.

The typhoon really came as scheduled, like a big monster, roaring around this small building of the deep boat. Downstairs in the usually lively deep boat, there was a dead silence. Suddenly, the lights went out, and Ning Qian probably tripped. Fortunately, she had prepared before, and Ning Qian picked up the flashlight at the bedside. In the TV series, lighting a candle when it's windy is the easiest way to catch fire, so I'm not fooled, or a flashlight is safe. On the bedside table, there is also a row of No. 1 batteries lined up neatly on standby.

Ning Qian was going to take a shower, but there was no hot water, so she remembered that there was a power outage. Ning Qian thought, on this typhoon day, it is impossible for people to come to repair it immediately, but this is also a guest house, there should be staff on duty, so it's good to ask.

She flashed her flashlight and asked all the way, "Is there anyone?" Except for the wind outside, there was silence on the third floor, silence on the fourth floor, silence on the second floor, and when she reached the first floor, she didn't dare to ask "Is there anyone?" for fear of being heard by the bad guys. She crept around the first floor and found that there was really no one. She quickly used all her strength to close and lock the door of the stairwell on the first floor, which seemed to have never been closed and had already clicked.

Ning Qian, who returned to the room, was confirmed: it turned out that she was the only one in the entire deep boat building! Usually looking at this building, it is really small, but at this moment, the monsters are circling outside, why do you feel that the building has become so big and empty? After a while, Ning Qian, who thought that she was already very bold, was still trembling, and did not dare to lie on the bed, for fear that if the roof was blown down and she would die in a daze, she sat on the ground against the edge of the bed, thinking that this should belong to the triangle area...... I was so scared that I was tired, and before I knew it, I fell asleep......

Ning Qian was woken up by a violent knock on the door downstairs, she hurriedly ran downstairs, it was Xiao Luo, a maintenance worker from the General Affairs Department, he saw Ning Qian who came to open the door, and asked in surprise: "How did you lock this door?" Ning Qian's mind immediately jumped out of her father's advice: "The heart of guarding against others is indispensable", but he must not let him know that I am here alone, so he smiled and said: "My parents are here to accompany me, my father helped me." They just went out to buy something to eat and came back in a moment. Xiao Luo sighed and began to overhaul.

Unexpectedly, Mom and Dad really appeared in the deep boat with big bags and small bags! As soon as Ning Qian saw them, she pounced in surprise, covered her father's mouth that was about to open her mouth to ask, and glanced at Xiao Luo behind her back, and her parents followed Ning Qian to her room knowingly.

As soon as Ning Qian closed the door, she lowered her voice and said excitedly: "Mom and Dad, do you know that last night, I was the only one in the entire deep boat!" There's also a power outage! ”

Mom was frightened and was about to open her mouth to exclaim, but Ning Qian covered her mother's mouth again.

"Be quiet, don't let Xiao Luo hear."

Ning Qian told her parents about the empty city plan she had just sung, and they all laughed. Dad said with relief: "It's good, it's good, I'm starting to know how to defend against people." ”

"Coriander, these are your favorite foods, and they're still hot!" Dad took out corn and sugar and fried chestnuts.

"And this lotus pod, your father went to several vegetable markets to buy it."

Ning Qian ate contentedly under the pampering eyes of her parents: "Dad, Mom, the first month's salary I received in Shenzhen, please go out for a big meal!" ”

After coming to Shenzhen, the first month's salary will be paid. Sister Fang put the salary card that had just been opened, together with the salary slip and password paper, and handed it to Ning Qian. Ning Qian opened the salary list and saw that there were more than 1,000! It's much higher than when I was in the platinum boat, and sure enough, the special zone is different!

Even if Mr. Wu asked everyone to give Ning Qian the work to do alone, and gave her something to do, Ning Qian felt that coming here, the work was really a lot easier, just in terms of the number of people he saw in one day, it was much less.

After the typhoon, the guest house began to be occupied one after another, when Ning Qian came back from Guangzhou last time, she brought valuable things over, and now it is definitely not safe to put it in the guest house room, and there is no seat in the office, and today she also issued a salary card, she carried all her belongings on her back, and planned to take it home at night and hand it over to her parents for safekeeping.

Before getting off work, I received a call from Yuan Wenwen, saying that he was in a bad mood. Ning Qian immediately made an appointment with her and met Chu Liuxiang, a dessert shop near the deep boat. The two of them chose the seat in the innermost corner, ordered the meal, and the little sister began to talk to each other.

Wenwen was very depressed, regretting that he should not have listened to the encouragement, and instead of giving up the platinum boat to come to the current foreign trade company. Ning Qian took out a tissue and handed it to Wenwen, comforted her, put her bag on the stool next to her, and deliberately stuffed the stool under the table. Suddenly feeling as if the stool had been dragged, Ning Qian turned her head to see that it was a waiter mopping the floor, and Ning Qian continued to comfort Wenwen.

Seeing that it was about to get dark, the two got up, and Ning Qian suddenly found that the bag on the stool was gone! Her head began to buzz and she searched around, but, the bag, was really nowhere to be seen! She quickly went through her mind who might be near this stool, and the most suspicious thing was the waiter who was mopping the floor.

She immediately walked to the front cashier and asked for the store manager, and the clerk in the store had a very unnatural expression. She asked them where the waiters had just mopped, and they insisted that no one had mopped the floor. Only then did Ning Qian notice that there was a very inconspicuous back door behind the desk where they were sitting.

Ning Qian asked to open the back door, but they firmly disagreed. Seeing that the waiters in this store were uniform, Ning Qian knew that she had arrived at the black shop, so she could only call Wen Wen and quickly ran to the nearby police station to call the police.

There were a lot of people who called the police, and there was a long queue, originally Ning Qian still had a fantasy that she could take the police to Chu Liuxiang to seize the stolen bag on the spot, but when it was her turn, it was at least two hours since the bag was stolen. Fortunately, I haven't called my parents to say that I want to go back, otherwise I would have been in a hurry if they waited so late and didn't see anyone.

After reporting to the police, Ning Qian took Wenwen to the bank, wanting to intercept his bank card being withdrawn, but the bank had already closed and could only wait for the next day to deal with it.

After tossing for so long, there is no way to go home. Wenwen accompanied Ning Qian back to the guest house, and kept whispering: "It's all my fault, if I don't ask you out, it's fine." Wenwen took out two hundred yuan from his bag and said that he would give Ning Qian an emergency. Ning Qian knew that Wenwen's income was not high now, and there were many places to spend money, so she refused to ask Wenwen for money no matter what, and comforted Wenwen: "The name of that store is like a black store, and I really left my fragrant bag there!" Fortunately, I only left a bag, in case I ran into a Sun Erniang, it would be even worse! ”

The more Ning Qian pretended to be relaxed like this, the more Wenwen was reluctant, Ning Qian patted Wenwen's hand, and said confidently: "Don't worry, the more you are like this, the more you have no worries, the more it means: I am about to rebound!" ”

The next day, there was no money for breakfast. As soon as the bank opened, Ning Qian rushed in, but was told that all the money in the bank card had already been withdrawn...... Ning Qian could imagine how happy that thief was - how could he meet a fool who put the password and card together, it was too lucky! She could almost hear the unbridled laughter of the thief.

By the time it was time to eat lunch, Ning Qian was already a little dizzy from hunger. But I really don't have a penny! Ning Qian was a little resentful for the first time, why didn't Shenzhou give her a table, if so, at least there was a possibility of finding a meal ticket or banknote in the crack of the drawer!

Long Xiaona came over and took Ning Qian to lunch together, she smiled and said that she was not hungry, eat later, and continued to endure it. Xiao Na came back from lunch and took Ning Qian to go shopping, but Ning Qian couldn't resist her, and followed her all the way downstairs.

Xiao Na excitedly pulled up this one for a while, tried that one for a while, the price tag of each piece of clothing is hundreds, for the poor and crazy Ning Qian, each piece is sky-high!

Xiao Na also excitedly said that she was going to travel to Wuyi Mountain on May Day. Travel? I don't even have anything to eat, but you're planning a trip? Ning Qian suddenly felt that Xiao Na was the happiest and richest girl in the world!

I continued to be hungry in the afternoon, alas, I never felt so hungry, the pile of snacks on Liu Zhiying's table, why is it so tempting, if I continue to be so hungry, will I suddenly rush over and grab it? Ning Qian suddenly envied Liu Zhiying, on the basis of eating two full meals, she could still have a table of snacks that she could take and eat whenever she wanted!

On this day, Ning Qian felt that her work efficiency was unprecedentedly low, and everyone only cared about whether they had food or not, and even looked like anyone who looked like food. She thought about it, and she couldn't tell her parents about her already poor people, or they would worry about it again.

But the salary that was only paid yesterday, I don't know if I can survive the hunger for a day, what will I do with the remaining 29 days? Thankfully, April is only thirty days, so you can stay up one day less.

So how did Ning Qian survive the next twenty-nine days?

(Author's Note:

1. Readers who asked Ning Qian why she didn't call 110 to call the police: This was in April 1995, and the 110 call to the police was only popularized and free in the country in 1996. Moreover, Ning Qian had neither a mobile phone nor money at that time.

2. Readers who asked Ning Qian why she didn't call to apply for a bank card loss report: At that time, not every bank had a telephone loss report business. ）
