Chapter 233: Rising to the Challenge
The next morning, when Lin Yao returned to the hotel, as soon as she entered the door, she saw Mu Wenxi, who was already ready to go, coming out of the bathroom, and asked in surprise, "Where have you been?" ”
Lin Yao looked at the empty corridor behind him rather uncomfortably.
It was late at night when she met Qin Rongze, and she originally planned to return to the hotel after meeting, but she was worried that she would make a noise to Mu Wenxi when she came back in the early morning, and Qin Rongze's villa had many rooms, so she simply stayed for one night.
She explained simply: "A local friend heard that I was coming to Qingshan Lake, so he came to see me. ”
This reason is a bit ridiculous, what kind of friend will she run out to meet in the middle of the night or early in the morning, and stay overnight?
Mu Wenxi is not a parent, as a classmate, it is impossible for her to take care of Lin Yao's private affairs.
Mu Wenxi nodded, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
"Eat."
"Then you change your clothes, let's go quickly."
On the way from the parking lot to the camp, Mu Wenxi looked at Lin Yao strangely, deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I heard from people just now that Cui Chenyi didn't stay in a hotel last night, you ......"
It is no longer common sense for a person not to return at night, and it is even more reverie for two people to stay at the same time.
Lin Yao was startled and hurriedly denied it, "There is no such thing!" I don't know him well! ”
"Ahem!" Cui Chenyi walked over with a straight face, handed an envelope to Lin Yao in front of everyone, "Your friend said that you forgot to take this." ”
"Anyone still writes these days?" Mu Wenxi's eyes widened, and her gaze shuttled back and forth between the two, "Should you?" ”
Lin Yao and Cui Chenyi said in unison: "I'm not familiar with her/him!" ”
Even the tone of the skimming is exactly the same.
The three of you, you look at me, I look at you, which attracted the other classmates to look sideways.
Since the opening ceremony, Cui Chenyi and Mu Wenxi have become the stars of this year's freshmen, and after this outward bound training, their popularity has increased instead of decreasing.
Cui Chenyi's personality is a little difficult to get along with, but he has a good mind and leadership skills, and the Chengfeng team he led has achieved the best results in all the projects of this outward bound training, and is a well-deserved champion team. And he himself is like a myth, which makes people look up to him, and there are not a few people who take the initiative to befriend him.
Mu Wenxi is just the opposite of him, her popularity is so good that it explodes, and everyone present affectionately calls her "Wenxi". She hung the title of vice captain in the Xiyang team, and although their team did not achieve good results, this did not affect her personal popularity in the slightest.
Lin Yao, as a little transparent among the "Big Three", is not as good as Cui Chenyi in terms of achievements and talents, and she is not as good as Mu Wenxi in terms of appearance and popularity.
Although Lin Yao's performance in outward bound training was very good, with Cui Chenyi and Mu Wenxi Zhuyu here, Lin Yao was only a little stronger than Passerby A.
There were more and more people stopping to watch, Cui Chenyi raised his eyebrows, he directly stuffed the envelope to Lin Yao, turned around and left.
Of course, Lin Yao knew what was in the envelope.
Last night, when Qin Rongze gave her the card, she hesitated, but she still accepted it.
When she said goodbye this morning, she quietly stuffed it back to Qin Rongze, who knows......
She subconsciously wanted to return the envelope to Cui Chenyi, but Cui Chenyi walked very fast, could it be that she ran after him?
What's more, others are tall and long-legged, Lin Yao can't catch up if he wants to, right?
What if she catches up? It is impossible for Cui Chenyi to take it back.
If they were in front of so many people, you chased me, pulled and pulled, what would others think?
She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wash it even if she jumped into the Yellow River!
Since Qin Rongze wants to give it, what if she accepts it? I should take care of it for him first.
After thinking about it, Lin Yao finally put the envelope into his backpack.
Mu Wenxi looked at Cui Chenyi's figure walking away quickly, she turned her gaze to Lin Yao, and wondered, "What kind of trick are you two playing?" ”
Lin Yao's heart was a little confused, and she didn't know how to explain it for a while, "Just now it was the first conversation between me and Cui Chenyi, do you believe it or not?" ”
Mu Wenxi wanted to believe it, "Then why did he come to you?" ”
Yes, Qin Rongze clearly said that he didn't know Cui Chenyi, but asked Cui Chenyi to hand over something to him.
Lin Yao was entangled: "It's possible, my friend also knows him." ”
Mu Wenxi was skeptical, "After a long time, you still have this kind of friendship, and I'm still thinking about what opportunity to introduce you two to each other." ”
As early as the day of the opening ceremony, Mu Wenxi had a proposal for the three of them to eat together.
The whistle of assembly sounded in the outward bound training camp, and Lin Yao took her arm, "Assemble, let's hurry over." ”
Today is the last day of Outward Bound training, to be precise, it should be the last half day.
The last two projects were teamwork projects, trust back falls and graduation walls. After getting along and running in the previous two days, the relationship between the members of each team has become familiar with each other, if not by leaps and bounds, and the members of different teams have basically known each other.
Trust Back FallThis is one of the most typical projects in the Outward Bound Training, which aims to build a relationship of trust with each other through this activity.
When the Xiyang team completed the back fall event, the biggest challenge was Zhang Hu.
How to ensure that Zhang Hu passes the most? This is a great challenge for any team member.
After Chen Huayang and others researched, they made arrangements, and the first person to walk on the platform was Lin Yao.
When the whistle blew, she asked loudly, "I'm going to jump, are you ready?" ”
All the players in the audience replied in unison, "We're ready!" ”
It's a commitment to your teammates, and it's a valuable resource and a source of courage, strength and confidence for the team on the jump.
The commitment of the team members reflects a sense of responsibility, and when they solemnly say their commitments, it is equivalent to putting their character, credibility and sense of responsibility to a test.
When Lin Yao threw away all worries and fell straight backwards from the jumping platform, the other team members under the jumping platform held her up with their hands to form a "human bed" to catch her steadily.
She never worried that the team members in the audience would not be able to catch her, if she couldn't catch her, the Xiyang team would not be able to catch anyone!
Still, the feeling of having a group of peers and teammates behind her who can be fully trusted by her is wonderful.
After Lin Yao was finished, he was followed by the small male team member, who looked very nervous, his face was blue, and his lips were pale.
As we all know, when performing a back fall challenge, only when the mind is relaxed and the posture is standard, the person who falls is the safest, and the person who picks it up is also the least effortful.
And his state is obviously not good.
When the coach stepped forward to ask him if he was unwell and wanted to leave, he gritted his teeth and resolutely walked to the jumping platform.
At first, everyone present, including Lin Yao, didn't understand why he was so nervous, until he fell off the jumping platform and was caught by the "human bed", but the wig flew out, and by coincidence, it fell on Zhang Hu's hands.
For a moment, even the air around me was almost frozen.
Zhang Hu casually put the wig on the gay man's head and said, "Let's continue." ”
All suspicions, uneasiness and apprehensions among the team members vanished in an instant, and the tension was swept away.
Finally it was Zhang Hu's turn to take the stage, he moved his body and said with a grin: "I have rough skin and thick meat, and it's okay to fall on the ground, everyone pay attention to protect yourself." ”
Chen Huayang smiled: "It's not good for you to distrust your teammates like this, if you believe us, you will definitely be able to catch you." ”
"Yes." Zhang Hu grinned, "I'm going to jump, are you ready?" ”
"We're ready!"
When Zhang Hu fell off the 1.4-meter-high jumping platform, everyone stretched out their hands in unison.
This time, the Xiyang team withstood it.
Next, everything went smoothly.
All the members of the Xiyang team in the back fall project passed the level at one time, and they were very efficient in passing through the graduation wall.
After all the projects, the overall score is far ahead, and it is still the Chengfeng team led by Cui Chenyi. The total score of the Xiyang team has rebounded slightly, and they have finally escaped the embarrassing ranking of the bottom three.
At the summary meeting, Cui Chenyi calmly received the trophy from the head coach.
In his final closing remarks, the coach said: "I believe that everyone has understood the requirements of this outward bound training, what seems difficult on the surface, but in fact, it is not as terrible as imagined.
When we encounter difficulties in work and life, the incident itself is not terrible, but the terrible thing is to lose the courage and confidence to solve the difficulties!
Psychological barriers are the most difficult to overcome, and if we want to be strong, we must first challenge our fears!
When we take a leap and take a small step bravely, we may be able to seize our own opportunity and achieve a big leap in life.
Here, I would like to say in particular that in our team of outward bound training in this exhibition, there is a special team, they have risen to the challenge and created miracles, their name is ......? ”
Everyone shouted in unison, "Xiyang Squad!" ”
Chen Huayang asked loudly: "What is our slogan?" ”
"Xiyang Xiyang, we are the strongest!"
The crowd burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic.
The head coach continued, "The success of one person is not the success of the whole team, and only when the team members work together and help each other can the team's goals be achieved.
In this world, we will always encounter a lot of things that cannot be done by individual strength, and we must rely on the collective strength to cooperate, which is the meaning and value of forming a team.
……”
The three-day and two-night outward bound training ended like this, and Lin Yao received a call from Li Renhai on the way back.
Li Renhai solemnly announced, "Lin Yao, from today, I will officially start my business." ”
Lin Yao was surprised: "What are you going to do?" ”
Li Renhai cleared his throat, "I'm going to open a teahouse." ”
Lin Yao couldn't believe her ears, "Teahouse? ”
Li Renhai smiled, "This is still the inspiration you brought me, after we got together in Wanghulou that day, I was thinking, why can Wanghulou stand by the West Lake for many years?" If I opened a better one, wouldn't it be ......"
"Wait." Lin Yao couldn't help but interrupt him, "You want to open another Wanghu Tower?" ”
"I'm going to open a Wangjiang building by the Qiantang River!" Li Renhai's tone was not without smugness, "I have already chosen the place, it is east of Hangzhou, by the Qiantang River, ......"
Lin Yao was even more shocked, "You said you were going to open a teahouse in the east of the city?" ”
Li Renhai said proudly: "Yes, Lin Yao, let me tell you, I didn't make up my mind so quickly, that day I went to play with my little brother in the east of the city, and there happened to be a family who wanted to emigrate, and they were short of money and planned to sell the house!"
You know the houses in the east of the city, they are all a whole building, and those who have no money can't afford it, and those who have money can't look down on it.
But I'm different, I happen to have money, and I just want to find a place to start a business, so I decided to make a decision.
Ahem, I just got my certificate down today. ”
How to trade the houses in the east of the city, Lin Yao didn't know much about these, "You mean that in order to open a teahouse, you bought a building?" ”
Li Renhai said proudly: "Yes, sitting on the roof of that building, you can really see the Qiantang River, such a superior geographical location, I have to hurry up?" ”
Lin Yao thought for a while and asked again, "Then are you ready to resign?" ”
Li Renhai said: "Not yet, I'll wait for the year-end bonus." You don't know, I spent money very quickly during this time, plus I bought a car before, I also bought a house in my hometown, and recently bought a building, and I want to decorate next, and I don't have much money in hand.
It is said that there will be a year-end bonus this year, so I plan to do it until the end of the year and resign next year. ”
The most attractive thing about Wanghu Tower is its geographical location, first of all, the flow of people is large enough, and there are only a handful of teahouses that can enjoy the lake while drinking tea.
Li Renhai opened Wangjiang Tower, then the situation is different, not that no one goes to the Qiantang River, but compared to the West Lake, I don't know how much less popularity, how many people can find his Wangjiang Tower, and go in to consume? That's really hard to say.
The teahouse is a completely unfamiliar industry, and Lin Yao does not support him in opening Wangjiang Tower, but Li Renhai bought a building, in case the business can't continue, he can still be a landlord, which can be regarded as a very safe investment.
Moreover, there are a lot of houses in the east of the city that are rented out, and there are really few for sale.
Li Renhai told his own idea, "I think so, when my teahouse improves, you and Jian Wen can also bring customers to sit in my teahouse." ”
The idea is very good, but Lin Yao has only a few customers in total, and he may not come to Huaguo once a year. But what Li Renhai is already doing, it is not appropriate for her to splash cold water on others now, so she said: "Your idea is quite okay, give us a discount then." ”
"That's for sure, you can help me add some popularity, you don't have to charge money."
"Now that it's decided, then you can do it."
Li Renhai was full of confidence, "Don't worry, it will definitely be able to start next year." ”
After Lin Yao hung up the phone, Mu Wenxi asked, "Your friend wants to open a teahouse?" ”
Lin Yao sighed, "Yes, I also knew that he had such a plan." ”
Mu Wenxi groaned: "I heard that the teahouse is not easy to open now." ”
Fang Wei, who was sitting behind them, also interjected, "Hangzhou is full of teahouses, and the competition is fierce. Besides, who has nothing to do and goes to the Qiantang River to drink tea? ”
Lin Yao actually thought the same way, but Li Renhai had already decided to open a teahouse......
Mu Wenxi said: "If you have time, you can persuade him to do something else, homestay or something, hasn't it just risen recently?" That is much stronger than the teahouse, or, you can add a teahouse to a homestay. ”
Lin Yao's eyes lit up, "That's the same!" ”
However, when Lin Yao told Li Renhai about this proposal, he didn't think so, "My idea is to open a pure teahouse, taste tea, enjoy the scenery, and sell teapots and tea by the way. Or wait for my teahouse to become well-known in Hangzhou, and then consider building a homestay. ”
Lin Yao was silent for a long time and said, "Then I wish you success." ”
Li Renhai smiled, "Thank you, brother!" ”
