Every time he went to the cafeteria at noon, Xu Zhe was still a little unaccustomed.

There is a cafeteria in the school, and the cost performance is significantly stronger than outside. But after everyone finishes eating, there will be a cafeteria aunt who looks at the dishes on the plate, calculates and then quotes the price. The student's payment method is cash, so it is inevitable to ask the aunt to make change.

For Xu Zhe, even if you don't use a QR code, it should be a meal card that can be swiped, right? This kind of manual change payment method is simply too inefficient.

Xu Zhe took the plate and found a corner to sit down.

After a while, there were two girls sitting opposite, Song Xingye and Tang Lingfei.

Before the two of them made friends, it was always Wen Hao who sat next to Xu Zhe during dinner. Even for Tang Lingfei, who is very arrogant, it is still a little embarrassing to eat alone with a boy in front of other classmates, let alone Song Xingye. But when the two of them are together, they are not afraid of other people's eyes.

And Wen Hao still came. He sat next to Xu Zhe, and the two girls were also in front of him. But he clearly felt that the attention of the two beautiful girls was always on Xu Zhe, and he was like a large humanoid light bulb.

But even so, Wen Hao didn't plan to leave. After all, it's better than eating silently by yourself.

And you can hear some unexpected things here......

"Did you buy a computer?" Tang Lingfei suddenly asked, "Why didn't you tell me?" ”

Wen Hao raised his head and glanced at it, and saw that the two girls were staring at Xu Zhe.

But what about Xu Zhe, this kid was still eating unhurriedly, seemed to hesitate, and said, "Because I don't want my parents to know." It's easy for you to leak your mouth, so I hide it from you. ”

Well, I bought a computer without telling my parents, and in order to keep it secret, so my childhood sweetheart didn't tell me, which is very reasonable...... That's weird!

Wen Hao couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get the money to buy a computer?!" ”

Xu Zhe: "I took over two outsourcing during the summer vacation. Looking at your expression, do you still need me to explain what outsourcing is? ”

Wen Hao nodded immediately.

So Xu Zhe said: "In fact, it is programming, writing code. Some companies or self-employed people need some code, but hiring a programmer is too expensive, and the demand may only be short-term, there is no need to recruit a long-term programmer, so send the work task online and find a programmer to write it for them. ”

Wen Hao was even more confused: "You kid can still write code?" ”

"I've been teaching myself about this. And what I chose was the simplest and most basic job, and the money I got after doing it was enough to buy a cheaper notebook. ”

After saying this, he received a mixture of surprise, awe, and a little skepticism.

Xu Zhe had a headache. He really didn't want to show off in front of these first-year children, but Tang Lingfei knew part of the truth, and Song Xingye also knew part of it, and when they put it together, he couldn't hide it.

When he decided to let Tang Lingfei and Song Xingye make friends, he only thought that he could reverse Song Xingye's emotions and free himself from the trouble of coaxing children. But he forgot that this would bring other minor troubles.

However, just say it, it's not something to be seen......

Xu Zhe sighed and continued: "I actually bought a computer for this. So don't ask me to borrow a computer, the only game in my laptop seems to be Minesweeper. And don't tell anyone about it, lest you get troubled. ”

Song Xingye and Wen Hao were silent for a long time, not knowing how to evaluate.

If you want to say who has good academic performance, it is still within the scope of their understanding, even if they are the first in the whole grade, even if they have not been there, who has not seen it?

But the first year of junior high school students wrote code to make money, and they also earned money to buy their own computers, which is ...... beyond their worldview.

Tang Lingfei suddenly asked, "Why are you hiding it from your parents?" ”

Xu Zhe spread his hands: "Because the first reaction of parents to this kind of thing is always not to interfere with learning." My parents were no exception. If I really want them to know, the computer will definitely be confiscated for me. ”

Tang Lingfei: "However, you have reached the first place in the class!" ”

Xu Zhe: "No matter how good the test results are, it is impossible for parents to completely let them go. Of course, I'm not sure what my parents will do if they know about it. But as long as you don't let them know, you will be spared all trouble. ”

Of course, there was another key reason he couldn't explain.

Others don't know him that well, but his parents know him too well. Saving everyone on the bus, and suddenly getting better on the exams, these things can barely be fooled. But if you let your parents know that you can suddenly make money from programming, it's really not easy to fool.

Knowing the son is more than his parents. Xu Zhe is worried that too many deeds beyond common sense will make his parents think too much......

Song Xingye suddenly asked: "You want to program to make money, and you want to go to school, how did you do this?" Won't it interfere with your studies? ”

What is the difficulty of the knowledge at the first level of junior high school?

Xu Zhe didn't say what was in his heart, but just borrowed the famous sentence again: "Time is like water in a sponge, as long as you are willing to squeeze it, there will always be it." ”

At eleven o'clock at night, when the sound of the TV in the living room stopped, and after his parents turned off the lights and went to bed, Xu Zhe turned on the computer again.

Recently, he has not been outsourcing again.

Some key junctures were getting closer, and he felt that he had to prepare early.

Xu Zhe clicked on a cryptography website in his favorites that had been sitting for several days, walked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

He'd browsed the site many times, and tonight, he finally got to the article, titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System."

Xu Zhe rubbed his hands, feeling his heartbeat speed a little.

The account that posted the paper was named Satoshi-Nakamoto, which is a name in Sakurajima, which translates into Chinese to Satoshi Nakamoto or Tetsushi Nakamoto. Of course, Xu Zhe did not plan to get in touch with this person immediately.

Moreover, he does not want to interfere with the historical development of bitcoin. He only planned to store some of this thing before the price of this thing flew up and put it quietly.

In the future, whether it is a game or something else, no matter the outcome of success or failure, if there is a bunch of bitcoins guaranteed, he will be very relieved.

Xu Zhe clicked into the article and read it carefully.

There are a lot of things in it, especially some details that are particularly professional, and he really can't understand them now.

After a long time, Xu Zhemeng came back to his senses, glanced at the time in the corner of the screen, and noticed that it was already past midnight.

I really have to think through this article, I don't know how long it will take, anyway, tonight will definitely not be enough. So Xu Zhe decided to find a print shop on the weekend to print the article, and then slowly study it these days.
