Chapter 234 Economic Crisis
In the end, Luo Dongqing ignored Li Da for the rest of the class, but when get out of class was over, she talked to Li Da again.
She is also a girl who can keep her word, but after class, she chose to forgive Li Da.
Luo Dongqing: This is the magnanimity a girl should have.
The last class in the morning was still English class, and the English teacher asked Li Da to answer questions again. Maybe it was because Li Da was in the last row, but his eyes were still full of thirst for knowledge.
Li Da: I was just distracted.
Just because I looked at you one more time in the crowd, I was called up by you to answer a question.
Fortunately, although Li Da slipped a little, the teacher's questions were relatively simple and the answers could be found in the text. Li Da answered them easily.
However, the English teacher still looked serious.
"Your speaking problem is still very serious. You need to practice more. The teacher recommends that you buy a book called Crazy English to strengthen your speaking skills."
It is also because Li Da is a top student that the English teacher would say such a thing. If it were someone else, the teacher might not say it.
Li Da nodded and sat down, his head hurting a little. The accent issue is really not something that can be changed in a short time.
Of course, if you have determination and perseverance and practice every day, it's not impossible.
but……
Don’t we have the energy?
As for the crazy English the teacher spoke, Li Da was deeply impressed. The founder even came to Luming Middle School to give a speech. It was really contagious and made many people buy the book. However, Li Da had no money at that time and was reluctant to spend money to buy it.
.
But Li Da actually doesn't pay much attention to English now. After all, he has some social experience. After graduating from college, he has never spoken English. Even in college, he didn't use it much.
Although there are foreign teachers in the school, Li Da, who is a poor student, has never communicated with others. After entering the society, because he works in Junsha and speaks southern Mandarin, no one in the company thinks that anyone has a problem with Mandarin. But if it is because of
Talk to people from other places about business issues.
Oh, this rich Shonan accent is instantly recognizable.
Are you from Shonan?
People with accents find it difficult to recognize their own accent problems, and may even feel that they are not standard.
Li Da actually didn't take what the teacher said to him seriously. Although some female classmates in the class laughed when the English teacher complained about Li Da's accent, Li Da didn't mind either. This was very normal in his student days.
Everyone's laughter level is generally low.
For example, if the teacher calls a scumbag to answer a question, someone might laugh.
Li Da was also puzzled at that time, why were they laughing?
What's so funny?
Anyway, I'm a scumbag and I can't laugh. Tears flow into my stomach...
However, Li Da didn't mind. Luo Dongqing gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and said to Li Da: "Let's start special training today!"
"?"
Li Da was a little confused, why did he suddenly say this?
"After you finish practicing the flute, let Aunt Xue correct your accent. Aunt Xue is very good and she will definitely be able to do it."
Li Da: "..."
It turns out to be this...
By the way, Luo Dongqing tried to correct Li Da's accent before, but she was so weak that she was almost led astray by Li Da, and then she gave up.
Now, she is more determined to do this.
How could her boyfriend make other people laugh?
"Okay, if you have time."
Luo Dongqing's serious look was even cuter. Li Da looked at her with doting eyes, which made Luo Dongqing feel shy.
"Don't think too much, it's because Aunt Xue is too busy, I'll find something for her to do."
Luo Dongqing became arrogant again, and Li Da almost laughed out loud.
Let Wang Xue hear what you said and see if she doesn't arrange it for you.
In Luo Dongqing's eyes, Wang Xue was probably like Tinkerbell. Li Da didn't know how they got along over the years. Anyway, from Li Da's point of view, Luo Dongqing had obviously developed the habit of looking for Aunt Xue when he had difficulties.
habits.
I look for Wang Xue when taking photos, I look for Wang Xue when cooking, and now I even learn foreign languages...
Well, learning foreign languages nowadays is still about learning foreign languages.
The end of the English class announced that another half day has passed.
Li Da went to the cafeteria to eat as usual, but received a call from his father.
It was inconvenient to answer the call in the cafeteria, so Li Da sent a text message back saying that he would contact me later, then hurriedly finished his meal and went back to the classroom to make a phone call.
When the phone was called back, the person on the other end asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
"I just finished eating. Do you have anything to do on the phone?"
Li Da is used to talking about things straight to the point. His father didn't say anything, but asked: "How much money have you made recently?"
Li Da heard that the tone there was a bit reserved, and couldn't help but guess if something had happened, so he said: "It looks like it's about 100,000 yuan after tax deduction, what's wrong?"
Li Da's first month's full-length manuscript fee has come out, which is 120,000 yuan, with a tax rate of 14%, and he can still get 100,000 yuan, not counting the income from the magazine.
Li Da has now completed preliminary poverty alleviation.
This book is enough for Li Daben to live a well-off life, because the royalties are usually the lowest in the first month, and will increase after that.
When Li Da heard his father ask about money, he wondered if he had encountered some difficulties, otherwise he would not have asked this question.
"There's nothing wrong. The factory boss said there is an economic crisis and he wants to lay off employees or cut wages."
Li Da frowned when he heard this.
There was no such thing in his memory.
As for the economic crisis in 2008, Li Da remembers it very deeply. He heard about the wave of layoffs and people running out of money, but these were just hearsay.
In addition, the politics teacher occasionally talked about it, but Li Da remembered that he didn't feel much at first.
This should also be equivalent to when people in the village who do not have access to the Internet hear things about students outside, and the matter has already passed.
Just like the original photographic record of Teacher Chen, when Li Dahui went online to look for this kind of thing, the picture resources could not be found.
The closed teaching environment has this kind of disadvantage.
Although Li Da is a day student now, he doesn't watch much news. It seems that it would be better for him to install a TV at home.
With these little things in his mind, Li Da's main thoughts were still on what his father said about the economic crisis.
"No, the economic crisis should mainly affect cities along the coast. Junsha, a central city, should not be affected so quickly."
"The boss said that because the efficiency is not good, we will reduce our wages. Some workers in our factory also said that the boss wanted to reduce wages and made an excuse. I don't know whether this is true or not."
