Reborn since 1993

Chapter 671: Fireworks blast, huge crowds of people

Being able to buy a computer worth tens of thousands of yuan in this day and age, Gao Dawei's income must be not low. And as the Spring Festival was approaching and he had a holiday, he decided to go to Hanxi.

Gao Dawei's behavior could not be considered as star-chasing. He was just curious and wanted to see what Ronaldo, whom he saw every day on Tianya, looked like. It was purely out of curiosity as a football fan.

Gao Dawei heard that several people in front of him in the queue wanted tickets to the provincial capital of Hanxi. The proportion was obviously too high. Gao Dawei felt that these people might be going there for Ronaldo!

Just as Gao Dawei turned around and left with his plane ticket, he heard the surprised voice of the person behind him in the queue.

"what?"

"Are the tickets to Hanxi sold out?"

"I'm really sorry, but the economy class, business class, and first class seats to Hanxi are all sold out before Saturday. You can buy tickets after Saturday..."

The person who bought the ticket had a depressed look on his face and muttered, "Why go after Saturday? The flowers are so cold!"

There were several people behind him who had the same reaction as this man. When they heard that there were no tickets, they all showed disappointment on their faces.

Some people went back home in a depressed mood, while others were unwilling to give up and ran to the train station and bus station, ready to take buses or trains to Hanxi.

Seeing this scene, Gao Dawei was also a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet so many football fans, and he couldn't help feeling a little fortunate.

Fortunately, he is a senior spammer on Tianya Forum, otherwise if he had bought the tickets after seeing the news on TV, he would probably have been unable to buy them!
Now all major domestic sports channels have begun to report the news of Ronaldo's arrival in Hansi Ferguson. Some media even quoted a report from Marca, the most influential sports media in Europe, to confirm the rumors.

It sounds a bit surprising that the tickets from Yanjing, where Gao Dawei is, to Hanxi are sold out.

After all, these days, even when the Spring Festival is approaching, the most popular tickets bought by people returning home for the New Year are still train tickets and bus tickets. Most people still won’t choose air tickets, which are relatively expensive means of travel, even if they are indeed faster.

But if you are from the major domestic airlines, you will find that at the same time, tickets to Hanxi are starting to become tight, and even tickets for connecting flights to Hanxi provincial capital are becoming in short supply.

……

"Suyi!"

After shouting, Tao Yan quickly covered her mouth again. It was quite quiet here. Her voice was not loud originally, but it seemed a little loud here.

Tao Yan is the daughter of Tao Zhiliang, technical director of Dongling Hi-Tech Electronic Industrial Park, and is currently studying at Pingyang University.

She is now in a store with a sign that says Zhixing Bookstore. Next to this bookstore is a Zhixing study room.

Zhixing Bookstore and Zhixing Study Room are both located on the first floor of a newly completed building. Most of the floor is occupied by Zhixing Bookstore and Zhixing Study Room.

Jiang Suyi was talking in a low voice with a customer who was about to buy a book. When she heard Tao Yan's words, she winked at her and indicated that the manager was there too. Tao Yan went to the reading area, sat down obediently, and waited for Jiang Suyi to come over.

Jiang Suyi is not a native of Hanxi, but in September this year, when she just entered Pingyang University, she did not choose to go home during the winter vacation. One reason was that she had just come to Hanxi from her hometown for half a year, and the novelty had not yet worn off, and she did not miss home that much.

Second, Jiang Suyi wanted to work during the winter vacation to supplement the family income.

Pingyang University does not charge tuition, and there are living allowances such as the Qilin Award. It is not difficult for someone like Jiang Suyi, who comes from a poor family, to enroll in Pingyang University without relying on her family and to finish college.

But if she wants better living conditions, to buy some clothes she likes, or to subsidize her family, she will need to do odd jobs during the winter vacation.

Pingyang University actually supports people like Jiang Suyi who want to work during winter and summer vacations.

Shen Qingyuan, the president of Binh Yang University, hopes that the students of Binh Yang University can have more social practice, training and experience. He believes in one thing: only those who have experienced the beatings of society can truly grow.

Instead of staying in an ivory tower, having no idea of ​​the real rules of how society works, and being beaten up by society after leaving school, you will be completely devastated. In college, as long as you are still studying, you have the opportunity to change your destiny!

Therefore, the Youth League Committee and Student Union of Pingyang University have cooperated with many local companies in Pingyang to provide an opportunity for people like Jiang Suyi who want to work during the winter vacation.

Among them are temporary jobs like those at Zhixing Bookstore, as well as temporary jobs doing odd jobs at Pingyang Railway Station, Pingyang Bus Station and other departments of Pingyang Municipal Government.

Of course, working as a temporary worker in Pingyang Municipal Government does not earn any salary, but there is a subsidy of several dozen yuan a month. However, you can eat in the company cafeteria. The key is that it is an opportunity to gain experience. Those who are interested in a career in politics know how rare this opportunity is.

This opportunity may not be very obvious now, but in the future, when the popularity of taking civil service exams rises, this opportunity will become particularly important and will add points to your resume.

Of course, if you really want to make money during the winter vacation, you must endure hardships. You can go to work on the assembly line of a large factory in Pingyang. Pingyang companies such as Dongling High-tech Electronic Industrial Park, Changling, and Founder have signed agreements with Pingyang University and are willing to accept short-term workers.

These short-term workers who come to Dongling Hi-Tech Electronic Industrial Park receive the same salary as long-term workers, about 800 yuan per month, but their benefits are definitely not as good as those of regular workers. Bonuses, dividends, shopping cards, regular gifts, etc. are all benefits only available to regular workers, but their salaries will be paid in full.

Jiang Suyi chose to work as a short-term worker at the newly opened Zhixing Bookstore in Pingyang. The contract she signed was for two months, from her vacation to the day before school started. She was paid 650 yuan per month, with one meal provided at noon.

This salary is not considered high in Pingyang, but for Jiang Suyi, this salary is much more than what her parents who are farmers in her hometown earn in a month!

Zhixing Bookstore has just been open for less than a month. It has a large interior area and is mainly divided into two parts. One part is the book selection area, which has everything from children's books to young adult books, adult books, from classics to martial arts novels, as well as celebrity autobiographies, professional books, and of course test papers, tutorial books, etc.

The other part is the reading area. As long as you apply for a 15-yuan membership card, you can come here to read books at any time, but you cannot take the books away. As for the membership card, you can return it at any time. If you don’t want to use it anymore, you can return it. But if you want to buy books or rent books, you can get a % or even % discount if you apply for a membership card. In addition, if you recharge the membership card to a certain amount, you can also get books, stationery, small dolls, globes, Bandai figures and other products as gifts.

So since Jiang Suyi came to work here, she has processed more than a hundred membership cards, but she has never seen anyone return a membership card.

After seeing off the customer who bought the book, Jiang Suyi glanced at the store manager and quietly came to the reading area, where Tao Yan was sitting with a group of "little kids".

That’s right, almost half of the reading area of ​​Zhixing Bookstore is occupied by a group of boys and girls, boys and girls.

Some were reading story books, some were reading comics, and some were reading martial arts novels, but they all sat there quietly watching.

Of course, these kids don’t have the money to apply for membership cards of Zhixing Bookstore, but Zhixing Bookstore doesn’t stop them from coming to read books, and these kids are basically very well-behaved. They take good care of the books when reading, and put things back in their place when leaving, so the two sides get along quite well.

These children who come to read books are all very clear about how difficult it is to find a place that has so many books and where they are allowed to read. It is even impossible to find a place like this except Zhixing Bookstore.

Moreover, if the book is damaged, no one will be able to read it in the future. Therefore, if someone damages a book, he will be despised by a group of friends, and no one will want to play with him in the future. In the world of little kids, this is more serious than the sky falling!

"How did you come?"

Jiang Suyi lowered her voice and asked Tao Yan in a low voice.

"I can't come to see you!"

Tao Yan rolled her eyes at her bestie, then said, "Tomorrow is the opening day of the Oriental Times Shopping Mall. My dad gave me some money and asked me to buy my own clothes for the New Year!"

"I……"

Seeing Jiang Suyi hesitate, Tao Yan said directly, "There is also a share for you. My dad has given it all to you. If you don't want it, then it's all mine!"

Tao Zhiliang knew Jiang Suyi. Tao Yan had brought her back to the Tao home several times. Tao Zhiliang and his wife had a good impression of Jiang Suyi, a little girl from outside the province who came to Hanxi. They took good care of her on weekdays. Whenever they bought something for Tao Yan, they would buy something for Jiang Suyi.

"Just think of it as accompanying me, okay!" Tao Yan grabbed Jiang Suyi's arm and shook it.

"it is good!"

"I happen to have a day off tomorrow, but I can go. I won't take the money. I have clothes to wear, and my uncle and aunt have taken good care of me!"

"Good good!"

Tao Yan agreed without thinking and just waited until she got to the Oriental Times Shopping Mall to buy it.

……

Early the next morning, Tao Yan rode a bicycle to the dormitory of Pingyang University and picked up Jiang Suyi, and then the two of them rushed to the Oriental Times Shopping Mall.

When they were about three kilometers away from the Oriental Times Shopping Mall, Tao Yan, who was riding a bicycle, was dumbfounded by the traffic jam. She saw a large steel torrent of bicycles, which were firmly blocked on the road.

In her entire life, Tao Yan had never seen so many bicycles, and Jiang Suyi behind her was not much better.

Not only bicycles, but also small cars and motorcycles were stuck in the traffic. Various horns were honking one after another, and of course there was also shouting and cursing.

"Don't drive your bike any further. There is no parking space left at Oriental Times Square and Oriental Times Shopping Mall!"

There is no place to park bicycles, so you can imagine there is no place for cars and motorcycles, and they are also being guided to park in other places.

In the dead of winter, the staff of Pingyang Traffic Police Station were directing traffic with sweat on their foreheads. The staff members wearing vests of Oriental Times Shopping Mall were also shouting through loudspeakers with obviously broken voices.

"Stop here now and get your license plate. When you get out, show your ticket and get the car!"

Tao Yan and her partner, who were pushing the cart, followed the crowd and parked the car at a place that was temporarily roped off to serve as a parking shed.

"I'm so sorry, please keep this ticket and don't lose it. I apologize for the bad experience you have experienced!"

After parking the bicycle, a girl about the same age as Tao Yan immediately handed her a ticket with a number written on it and a stamp.

"Can I use this ticket to pick up my bike later?"

Tao Yan asked casually. Given the current situation of the Tao family, buying a bicycle is not a problem at all. But it is their own after all, so Tao Yan could not help but feel sad if it was lost, as she had also lived a hard life.

“When you come out later, you can hand your ticket to the staff at the door and someone will take you to pick up the car.

In addition, with this ticket, you can enter the lottery in the mall for free once.

In addition, to express our apology, Oriental Times Mall will compensate you with a gift, which can also be obtained with a ticket. I hope you like it! "
