My courtyard shelter

After signing the contract, Xu Dong paid a payment of 1.5 million yuan and a deposit of 2 million yuan in advance.

The whole set of equipment is too big to be taken away.

Can only be sent by express delivery.

Before leaving, shopping guide Xiao Chen specifically reminded:

"Mr. Xu, a VR helmet can only be bound to a maximum of three accounts. Please choose carefully."

Xu Dong frowned subconsciously.

"I remember you said before that because the price is not cheap, most of them are shared in foreign countries, and many 'Internet cafes' have been opened for this purpose. Why doesn't it work in China?"

The shopping guide was a little embarrassed: "Mr. Xu, domestic equipment is all customized, and the above is to avoid the proliferation of games. Please forgive me."

"Really? Are there any other restrictions?"

"Well, one more thing, this device can only be connected to the Starlink network. As you must know, the submarine optical cable has been disconnected for a long time. The domestic network cannot connect to the overseas servers for the time being."

"I've expected this."

Although the Starlink network is expensive, it is nothing to Xu Dong, and he does not care about this small amount of money. .

"Except for these two points, there is nothing else. I wish you a happy use!"

"Thanks!"

…

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Dong flew back to the capital.

Taking advantage of his free time, he drove back this week's bottled water. Although the domestic situation has greatly improved, the water supply is still the same.

Freshwater resources are precious and no amount of them is enough.

After six o'clock, Xu Dong called Xiao Zhang and asked him not to come over, but to get off work directly, and let him pick up the children and go home from school.

When we arrived at Yanjing No. 4 Middle School, it was one of the best high schools in the entire metropolitan area. It had both a high school section and a junior high school section. The five siblings all went to school here.

As the school bell rang, students soon came out in droves. Xu Dong stood at the school gate. After a while, he saw the two sisters.

"Keke, Lele, this way!"

When Lele saw her father, she immediately rushed over:

"Dad, you are back. Have you bought a VR helmet?"

Xu Dong reached out and took the little daughter's schoolbag:

"I bought it and it has been sent by express delivery. I will receive it in a few days. However, the supply in Shanghai and Beijing is insufficient, so I only bought one, and the rest will be available in a few months."

"Huh? Are you still waiting for the express delivery?"

Lele immediately couldn't hide her disappointment.

"Why, you can't wait for a few days?"

Xu Dong said angrily.

Lele quickly put away her frustration: "No, how could it be? Just wait a few days, as long as we can arrive before the winter vacation."

"Dad, when did you come back?"

Coco came over and expressed concern.

"I got home at four o'clock in the afternoon."

The father and daughter waited at the door for more than ten minutes, and finally waited for the three Dabao brothers.

"Dad, have you bought the helmet?"

Dabao took the lead and trotted over.

Xu Dong scratched the heads of the three brothers one by one:

"The helmet will arrive in a few days. Okay, let's go home first. If we don't leave, we'll be stuck in traffic."

In winter in the capital, it gets dark very early. By the time we get home, it's already pitch black outside.

After getting off the bus, the children still asked about VR helmets, especially the "exoskeleton" equipment. The five siblings had never heard of it.

Xu Dong suspected that they were playing with fake goods.

This is not surprising. Domestic copycat capabilities are still very good. It makes no sense that VR games are so popular abroad but there is no movement in China.

He just didn't expect that counterfeit goods would be so out of stock, which made him feel a little baffled. If counterfeit goods can be out of stock, can they still be called counterfeit goods?

Could it be that they don’t even let off counterfeit goods?

After all, the government has almost a monopoly on the supply of domestic chips, so it is very easy and effortless to suppress it.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that was the case.

After dinner, Xu Dong took the children to the living room. There were only three quotas for VR helmets, which was definitely not enough. This problem would have to be faced sooner or later.

"I'll tell you some bad news. Here's the thing. Only three people can play with one helmet. Dad takes one, and the remaining two places are divided. How do you want to divide them?"

"Dad, do all my classmates' helmets belong to casual play?" Lele expressed doubts.

"What dad bought is genuine. One piece of equipment costs more than one million. How much did your classmate's family pay for it?"

"Well, it seems to have cost more than fifty thousand."

"Then it's over. The helmet dad bought is more fun and different from your classmates'."

Dabao looked sad: "But there are only two places, how to divide them?"

"Ahem!" Xu Dong pretended to cough, "That's what Dad thinks. The final exam is coming soon. Whoever gets good grades will get the spot."

"But the subjects in high school and junior high school are different."

Erbao immediately raised questions.

"It doesn't matter. Coco and Lele, you two compete for one spot; Dabao, Erbao and Xiaobao, the three of you compete for one spot."

Xu Dong took advantage of the situation and came up with his own solution.

Before the eldest brother and the second brother could object, Xiaobao immediately jumped out and said: "Dad, I am the youngest in the family, so let the eldest brother and the second brother play!"

Dabao's fat face turned red and he looked a little uncomfortable.

He was about to jump out and object just now. Among the three brothers, the younger brother's academic performance has always been far ahead. His father's doing this is tantamount to directly declaring Xiaobao the winner.

Coco followed closely and expressed her willingness to give up her place to her younger sister. She was the eldest sister and she had been accustomed to giving in since she was a child.

Lele hugged her eldest sister excitedly.

He was as happy as a five or six year old child.

Xu Dong quickly praised his eldest daughter and youngest son.

Especially Xiaobao, who is not only smart but also sensible, has a "Kong Rong gives pear" style, and perfectly inherits all his advantages.

Xu Dong's praise suddenly put pressure on Dabao's head.

Dabao has always considered himself the eldest brother since he was a child.

However, as they grow older and the three brothers are already the same age, it is inevitable that various minor conflicts will occur in their lives, and quarrels and fights have almost become commonplace.

After several years of this, the "revolutionary friendship" that we had when we were young and jointly resisted the big devil disappeared without knowing when, and was replaced by countless trivial matters.

After thinking about it for a long time, Dabao could only reluctantly give up:

"Dad, let's give it to my second brother!"

Xu Dong was very pleased. Although his eldest son was not the smartest, he was a pretty good brother. At least he knew the principle of respect between brothers, friends and brothers.

"Okay, okay, Dabao did a great job, dad is proud of you."

Hearing this, Dabao suddenly puffed up his chest.

Although the second treasure usually likes to play tricks, he is obviously not as thick-skinned as the second sister. Faced with the super gift that fell from the sky, he gritted his teeth and pushed it to his younger brother.

So after wandering around, the spot returned to Xiaobao. Xiaobao showed a sly smile. This time, he did not refuse and directly expressed his gratitude to his brothers.

Big brother, second brother...

What you shout is so friendly!

At the end of the conversation, Xu Dong took out five IOUs.

"Okay, I have bought the VR helmet for you, but you need to pay for the helmet yourself. This is what you personally promised before."

"Dad, how can we afford so much money?" Lele quickly yelled.

"It doesn't matter if you can't afford it now, you can pay it back after graduation."

Xu Dong waved his hand, saying it was impossible to default on the bill.

"Isn't that enough? Sister Lingling is already a manager, and her monthly salary is only more than 30,000 yuan. She may not be able to pay it back in ten years."

"Don't worry, when dad helps you start a business, how much money can you make from working?"

Regardless of whether starting a business is successful or not, it is a valuable asset and the best way to train people. Xu Dong has no reason to give up.

"Okay! Dad, I want to open a bakery."

Lele quickly accepted the reality.

Xu Dong nodded: "We'll wait until you go to college. In short, you are not allowed to start a business before the college entrance examination."

"oh!"

…

Early the next morning, Xu Dong went to work as usual.

When passing by the north gate, he nodded to Datou. Datou is currently the father of two children, so he can be regarded as having both children.

However, the other party is still doing the same job he did five years ago. For dispatch workers, they have reached the ceiling of their careers and will not be promoted unless they become regular workers.

When he came to the office, Xu Dong first made himself a cup of green tea. It is easy to get angry in winter, so green tea is more suitable.

Handled official business all morning.

As lunch time approached, he couldn't help but stretch a lot, and then wandered to the security department.

The current section chief of the security department is Gu Haiyuan.

Xiang Xin serves as deputy section chief.

"Director, you are here."

Ren Li quickly stood up and said hello.

Xu Dong waved his hand and asked the other party to sit down: "Where is Lao Gu? Why didn't you see anyone?"

"The section chief has gone to the south gate. It is said that Mr. Fei will take office in the afternoon. The section chief is a little worried."

Ren Li replied.

Mr. Fei is the new general manager of the electric power company.

Just a few days ago, Mr. Liao's transfer order finally came down. The other party got his wish and stayed in the capital, and in one fell swoop he won the post of mayor of Bohai New District.

This is a very popular position.

Because the New District is the easiest place to achieve results, and the most important thing is that Bohai New District is right under the noses of the big guys, and it is difficult to hide it.

"Really? Didn't he say he would take office after the year?"

Ren Li looked around and explained in a low voice:

"Director, I heard that senior leaders may come to our company for inspections during the Spring Festival. Mr. Fei probably can't wait any longer."

"Where did you get the news?"

"It's going crazy in the company group. Director, didn't you watch the company group?"

Xu Dong patted his forehead. He was either on a business trip or on a business trip these days. He had no intention of looking at any company groups.

"I was busy and forgot."

"Director, have you heard of Mr. Fei?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "I only know that he just came back from Kangaroo Country, and I know nothing else. What, what inside story did you find out?"

"It's not an inside story. I also heard from a comrade in Guangdong Province that this new leader is said to have a tough style. I'm afraid he won't be easy to get along with!"

"Whether we get along well or not has nothing to do with us. We just have to do our job well."

Ren Li quickly expressed his stance: "Yes!"

At the same time, in a guest house in the urban area, Mr. Fei, whom the two men called Mr. Fei, was humbly asking an old leader for advice.

The reason why he was able to take over the position of general manager was thanks to the operation of the old leader.
