Thanks to the book friend "Yang Jia Tian Bo Fu, Can Ji, a book lover for life, a scientific research dog who loves stew" for his monthly vote.
.................................................................
Wu Fei knew her husband's temperament, so he didn't continue the topic.
However, I remembered that when Su Mingzhe just came back from Suzhou, he vowed that he had found a new job.
And I actually believed his lies.
"The new job you are talking about is to be a bug bounty hunter?"
Wang Lidong heard the hint of resentment in his voice, hugged Wu Fei a little tighter, and explained softly:
“I thought that an income of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month would be considered good.
I really didn’t expect this money to be so easy to make.
It's my fault for frightening you."
Wu Fei saw Su Mingzhe acting rogue and rolled his eyes at him.
"Mingzhe, we are husband and wife.
If this happens again in the future, you can’t fool me again.”
Wang Lidong raised his right hand and made an oath:
"Honey, don't worry, I promise there won't be a next time."
In the following week, Wang Lidong accepted several bounty tasks one after another, and another US$260,000 was added to his bank account.
"Buzz buzz", "Buzz buzz"
Wang Lidong looked at his phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Which one?"
"Hello, are you Mr. Su?"
"I am, you are?"
"Hello, this is Heidricke & Struggle. You can call me Walter."
.....
"Walter, thank you for your call, 88."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Lidong thought for a moment.
I didn’t expect headhunting companies to have such a keen sense of smell.
I didn't complete a few tasks before this group of people got a taste of me.
Thinking of the salary package promised just now, Wang Lidong curled his lips in disdain.
600,000 plus some stocks, just to make money by working for the capitalists.
This is probably overthinking.
Wu Fei was busy with dinner in the kitchen. After seeing Wang Lidong hang up the phone, he asked:
"Whose phone number?"
"Buzz buzz", before Wang Lidong could reply, another call came in.
When he saw the call sign, Su Daqiang.
"Hey, Dad, why did you call me so early (Suzhou time)? How have you been doing these past two days?"
When Su Daqiang saw the call connected, he started to complain loudly.
"Mingzhe, don't you want to care about me anymore?
If you don't want to care about me, then tell me and I will go to a nursing home immediately."
Wang Lidong felt a little puzzled.
It’s not like I just moved to a new home, and I also have a nanny.
What happened to the cheap daddy again?
"Dad, no one cares about you.
Tell me, what happened?"
Su Daqiang said loudly:
"You guys promised at the beginning that when I move to a new house, you will buy me a computer.
But it’s been a week since I moved into my new home.
Where’s the computer? I didn’t even see a shadow of it.
Didn't you ask me to look at America's information online, but now I don't even have a computer, so I can't look at it.
I talked to Mingcheng several times about this matter.
I think he just doesn't want to buy it for me.
Mingzhe, I can't count on Mingcheng.
You can buy me a computer from América now and send it to me right away."
In the last sentence, Su Daqiang used an imperative tone.
Wang Lidong on the other end of the phone rolled his eyes.
If it were the original person, he might still stick to this.
"Dad, it's just a computer.
Don’t worry, I’ll call Mingcheng later and ask him to send it to you today.”
Su Daqiang said unhappy:
"Su Mingzhe, I asked you to buy it and send it over, not to Mingcheng.
Why did you learn from Mingcheng and start pushing it back and forth?"
Wang Lidong took a few deep breaths and suppressed his anger slightly:
"Dad, you can let me buy it if you insist, but you'll pay for the shipping. Do you think that's okay?"
Su Daqiang felt that the eldest son was easier to bully.
If you have a firm tone, the matter will be done.
“Okay, isn’t it just the shipping fee?
Your father and I can still afford this amount of money.
You buy it for me today, I’m waiting for it to be used urgently!”
Wang Lidong said with a smile:
"Dad, there is an ocean between San Francisco and Suzhou.
I bought it today and it will be delivered to you in four or five days at the earliest.
By the way, the courier fee is about seven to eight hundred yuan, so remember to prepare it."
Su Daqiang thought his ears heard it wrong,
"Mingzhe, the shipping fee is seventy or eighty, right?"
Wang Lidong said:
"Dad, I said seven or eight hundred.
The distance between our two cities is more than 10,000 kilometers.
Think about it for yourself, how could it be seventy or eighty?"
Wang Lidong continued:
“Of course there are cheaper ones too.
It just takes a little longer, it will take about a month or two before you can receive the goods."
Su Daqiang begged: "Mingzhe, I bought the computer, so you can help me pay for the express delivery.
Dad has no money!"
Who wouldn’t cry about poverty?
Wang Lidong sighed:
"Dad, if it had been before, I would never have asked you to pay for the shipping.
But have you forgotten that I am unemployed and at home now?
Food, drink, clothing, everything is not paid for by Fei Fei.
To put it bluntly, it’s your eldest son and me who are eating my wife’s soft rice.
Dad, you also have to think about me."
The eldest son, who has always been proud, talked about this.
If Su Daqiang knew about the shipping fee, Su Mingzhe would definitely not pay it.
But if he had to spend so much money himself, how could he be willing to do so?
"Then you call Mingcheng immediately and ask him to send me the computer today.
Otherwise I will move to a nursing home."
Wang Lidong didn't believe Su Daqiang's nonsense.
We had food, drink, and people waiting on us, all we needed was a warm bed.
"Dad, don't worry, I will tell Mingcheng later.
By the way, are you still getting used to living in the new house? How is the nanny you hired? "
When it came to the house, Su Daqiang's tone became much better.
"As a habit, a big house means you can live comfortably.
It’s a pity that this house is rented from someone else, it would be nice if it was my own home.”
Wang Lidong remained silent after hearing this.
He wouldn't accept that.
Su Daqiang on the other end of the phone waited for half a minute but didn't hear Wang Lidong's response.
He could only continue: "Mingzhe, are you listening?"
Wang Lidong said: "Dad, I'm listening."
Su Daqiang's voice came again, but this time the volume was much lower.
"Mingzhe, when you call Mingcheng, tell him to replace the current nanny for me.
This nanny is so lazy.
Every time I sweep the floor, I will be nagging for a long time.
Moreover, the cooked dishes are very salty. Every time I finish eating, I have to drink a large glass of water to quench my thirst.
You ask Mingcheng to find me a more diligent cook, preferably a local one, so that I can get used to the food cooked like that."
Wang Lidong promised:
"Okay dad, I will talk to Mingcheng about these two things later.
Take care of yourself and contact me if anything happens."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Lidong said to Wu Fei:
"The first one was called by a headhunting company and wanted to poach me.
The one at the back is my dad’s phone number.”
Wu Fei said curiously:
"What is the salary of a headhunter?"
Wang Lidong made a 'six' gesture with his hand.
"Six hundred thousand?"
Wang Lidong nodded.
When she asked about this, it was just something new. After all, it was the first time in her life that a headhunter came to her door.
