When the final exam results came out, Tian Shao ranked fifth this time, falling out of the top three as Mu Ningzhen expected. Bao Yiqiu also fell three places, and working for Tian Shao definitely affected his results.
Class monitor Qi Lei couldn't help but ask: "Yi Qiu, you have followed classmate Tian to her rented house after school every day for the past two months. What on earth were you doing there? Why did your grades drop so much?"
Bao Yiqiu said vaguely: "Don't worry, I know it well."
Qi Lei said: "Can I not worry? No matter how smart Tian Shao is, she can get into the top five in the exam without studying outside class. But we are different. As soon as we relax, our grades will fall."
After a pause, he continued: "Tian Shao's partner has a good job and earns a lot. As long as she graduates successfully, she can stay in Sijiu City. But we are different, Yiqiu, we have to rely on ourselves. If our grades are not good, we will not be able to do it in the future.
We may not be able to stay in Sijiu City."
Bao Yiqiu knew that he was doing it for her own good, but she still felt uncomfortable after hearing this: "Qi Lei, the little book Xiaoshao wrote before has monthly royalties. She spent her own money on food and has not used it.
Comrade Pei’s.”
Last time they went to eat hotpot mutton, it cost more than 30 yuan for the four of them. She and Bao Yiqiu were shocked when they found out, but Tian Shao didn't even blink. From this, it can be seen that her current comics must be
She earned more than in "Little Hero A Yong". But she promised Tian Shao so she never mentioned it to anyone, even when Mu Ningzhen asked her.
Seeing her anger, Qi Lei explained: "I know Comrade Tian is very capable, and I am also thinking about our future."
He really liked Bao Yiqiu, so he wanted the two of them to make it to the end.
Bao Yiqiu said: "Qi Lei, Xiao Shao's request for my help is not free. It's because we have a good relationship that I take special care of you. Don't worry, I will try my best to improve my grades next month."
Qi Lei didn't ask any further, nodded and said, "As long as you know what's going on."
Bao Yiqiu went home that afternoon.
Some students in the school did not go back because their homes were too far away, it was inconvenient to go back and forth and the fare was expensive. However, Bao Yiqiu helped Tian Shao for the past two months. In addition to his salary on the third day of every month, Tian Shao also paid for the meal in the evening.
.So now she is not so strapped for money and has money to buy a bus ticket to go home for the New Year.
When Bao Yiqiu boarded the train, Tian Shao had already entered the territory of Hong Kong City. This time, the place of residence was changed again. Xing Shaohui rented a high-end apartment, which was three times more expensive than before.
The reason why it is expensive is that firstly, it is very strictly controlled and no one can come in; secondly, there are three rooms and each room is very spacious and has excellent light.
Tian Shao fell in love with the bright floor-to-ceiling windows immediately. The living room was also in the simple European style that she liked. Tian Shao looked at the three rooms and the kitchen and was very satisfied. He asked: "How much does a house like this cost?"
Gong Zheng thought for a moment and said: "The rent is 800, but I don't know what the house price is. Miss Xing, you can ask the general manager about this."
Xing Shaohui is often in the newspapers now, and there is a risk of being recognized wherever he goes, so there is no road. This time, Gong Zheng was specially sent to pick up Tian Shao and the others.
It was Yuan Jin's first time to go out, and his legs felt a little weak after hearing these words. The rent was 800, which was almost his two years' salary. There was indeed money in a capitalist place.
Tian Shao said oh and stopped asking any more questions. Let's rent it for now and wait until the house price drops before buying it: "Go back first and tell Uncle Xing that I'm not in a hurry here and let him come back after he's finished."
"good."
It was very warm here in the harbor city. Tian Shao changed her thick cotton-padded jacket into a dress. But she was afraid of the cold, so she also put on a windbreaker. Then she said to Pei Yue, "Let's go get something to eat!"
When he got outside, Tian Shao first called Zhao Xiaorou. Coincidentally, Zhao Xiaorou happened to be at home. He immediately became anxious when he heard her voice: "Xiao Shao, I didn't ask Xing Shaohui to tell you not to come to Hong Kong City for a short time. Why are you still there?"
Are you coming?"
What did Xing Shaohui do? After giving such instructions and letting Tian Shao come over, he was not afraid of anything happening.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Xiaorou briefly explained the matter, and then said: "Now in the eyes of those people, you are just a piece of fat, and everyone wants to swallow it. Xiao Shao, you'd better go back quickly! It's too dangerous."
Not to mention the opponents of Xinbao and the gang who were targeting her, even Bao Huamao asked her several times when Tian Shao would come to Hong Kong City, which made Zhao Xiaorou frightened. As a result, she had nightmares for several nights in a row, Tian Shao was in her dreams.
Shao was captured by those bad guys and tortured to a state of disgrace.
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Xinbao's net profit last month was more than 3 million, so it's normal for them to be jealous."
These people would be even more jealous when the newspaper reformed its double-issue weekly and doubled its profits. However, she just thought about it in her mind and did not say it out loud, for fear of scaring Zhao Xiaorou.
"Aren't you afraid?"
Tian Shao was really not afraid and said: "Those people are bullies and afraid of the strong. Knowing that I have a backer, they don't dare to make any decisions."
Seeing that she was not afraid, Zhao Xiaorou stopped persuading her, and then told her a good thing: "Our gold futures have made a profit, five times. You bought 500,000, and now it has become 2.5 million.
"
Two hundred and five, there is wisdom in fools and blessings in fools. I hope I can be eagle-eyed this time.
Zhao Xiaorou said: "Xiao Shao, I invested 88,000 yuan before, and I can get 400,000 yuan after excluding the handling fee. Xiao Shao, I want to use this money to buy the house I live in now."
Tian Shao thought it was a good thing to be so sober. With a house, she would at least have a place to stay after being separated from Bao Huamao, instead of going back to squeeze in with her mother. As for her mother, she thought it would be better not to recognize her.
Tian Shao said: "It's a good thing that you want to buy a house, but don't buy the house you live in now."
"Why? I quite like this house."
Tian Shao said bluntly: "I'm afraid that one day you will see things and miss people."
Zhao Xiaorou paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't even think of going so far. Okay, then I'll listen to you and buy another property. But Tian Shao, please take out your money too! You said this before
It's just a gamble on luck, we ordinary people don't have such great luck and can't afford it."
Tian Shao secretly thought, I am not an ordinary person, I am a cheater: "Now the gold futures are booming. It would be a pity to withdraw. I am going to buy a few more times."
Just as she was about to say what if she lost money, Zhao Xiaorou remembered what Tian Shao had said before. If she lost the money, she could still make it back from other places, and it would not affect her life.
Zhao Xiaorou said: "Xiao Shao, I don't dare to bet. I think it is safer to buy a house."
Losing more than 80,000 yuan would make her feel uncomfortable for a few days at most. If she lost 400,000 yuan and failed to buy a house, she would always regret it. Moreover, Bao Huamao was not as caring about her as before, and he had to think more about himself.
The fourth update. The small days are here, and we are going through the tribulation. The fifth update will be later.
