Chapter four hundred and sixty seventh: finally relax
Ding Wei didn't know that she was about to take on the important role of matchmaker, but she felt that she suddenly became quiet and relaxed.
From the end of last year to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, although she didn't do much, she really didn't have any private space of her own, which made her quite uncomfortable.
In the afternoon, she sent her aunt and her family to the train station. Now after taking a shower, she received a call from her aunt, saying that she had already departed. Ding Wei let out a long sigh and fell down on the bed.
ah!
It’s finally a holiday!
There is still a week left before school starts, just enough time to rest and catch up on manuscripts.
By the way, I’m sorting out the homework that Lao Wang needs at the beginning of school.
But when it comes to this, Ding Wei can't help but be a little confused——
Didn’t Lao Wang say that he won’t put more burdens on himself? Why do you feel that the span of this coursework is a bit big?
…
After all, I am young and have little knowledge, so I don’t know how dirty the minds of the cultural people in this world are.
For example, Lao Wang, he was really busy writing articles, and he saw such a good young talent like Ding Wei——
Even though it’s obvious that I’m not interested in culture, I can’t delay it!
As young people, it is always beneficial to study more.
Therefore, Lao Wang finally made a decision - starting next year, he will lead a few graduate students.
With his high status, he said in the school that he would take care of graduate students. Naturally, the school was happy to see this happen and wanted to get it.
It's just that Lao Wang hasn't communicated with the school yet, so even Ding Wei doesn't know about this.
Although she always felt that the recently assigned courses were a bit strange, not in line with Lao Wang's consistent divergent thinking, but rather a bit like exam-oriented education——
But I didn't expect this either.
At this moment, I am still blissfully ignorant.
ah!
She rolled around on the bed twice, she was so happy during the holiday.
…
However, indulgence cannot be endless.
In the days before smartphones, even if she had free time, Ding Wei really didn't know what to do to pass the time.
If you are idle and idle, you will always feel guilty in your heart——
This is the "wasted time syndrome" of being a social animal.
In the end, Weiweizi, who had been working so hard, got up and decided to start the manuscript.
But before that, there is another routine activity that can instantly activate your thinking.
for example--
This Life Is No More 996: Are you there?
…
Editor Guo Mu: No, no, no.
(′?Pan?`)
Every time I see Ding Wei sending messages like this, I feel like the other person is full of bad intentions...
But once she told it as a joke to her colleagues, everyone thought it was normal, and she was the only one who made a fuss——
"It's just a normal and polite question. Why did you react so loudly?"
Editor Guo Mu innocently reflected on himself——
is that so?
Are you thinking too much?
But even though I have repeatedly told myself to change it, now that I see the words "Are you there?", my usual tone still follows.
But who is Ding Wei?
She's not afraid of being shameless.
Besides, isn’t it normal to approach the editor when you have something to do?
No More in This Life 996: Oh, it’s okay, I’ll just be idle.
This Life Is No More 996: Of course, you are probably still a little busy. After all, working as a working man has a working soul, and you have to work as a working man——
Aren’t you considering quitting your job this year and returning to work on the website?
This Life Is No More 996: Are you already at work at this point?
…
That's right.
The social animal fruit tree is now sitting in the magazine office.
My colleague, Editor Su, had already resigned last year and officially went to the online class of Dreamweaver Literature. But fortunately, in an organization like theirs, there are basically no particularly busy times, especially since the sales volume of magazines has dropped a lot this year. The editors are even more relaxed.
.
"I heard? Our magazine is planning to suspend publication of "Dream Talk" this year. Is it true?"
Several editors chatted.
"I guess? The sales of that copy were so bad that I don't even want to buy it from outside now."
"Is it okay to stop? We have too many magazines? As long as the basic sales volume of the main force has not changed."
"That's not to say. If there is one less line in the magazine, will our work be less? Performance and bonuses will definitely be less..."
"There's nothing you can do about it. My son will read books on his mobile phone now? Did you tell me last month to recharge his phone bill? But he ended up spending a hundred dollars a month reading novels. I'm so angry!"
"You said there are so many magazines at home, but they're not enough to read every month?"
…
Guomu listened to those words in his heart and couldn't help but sigh softly at this moment.
——When she first reviewed the manuscript for Dream Weaver Literature Network, her husband said: “Maybe e-reading can really replace physical magazines in the future, but I didn’t think so at the time.
But now...
Not to mention the son of a colleague? Even reading books on my mobile phone during the Chinese New Year cost me sixty or seventy yuan.
But not even aware of it.
For this amount of money? If it were a physical magazine, how many people would buy 10 or so copies at a time?
The chat among colleagues continues:
"Didn't Lao Su take an internal leave? Did he go to work at that online novel website? How is it? Have you asked about it?"
Are there no secrets in the unit? Even the leaders at the top don’t mind the employees finding work on their own - the salary is not taken from them anyway.
Therefore? Everyone is also aware of what happened to Editor Su.
"Lao Su can't help it. We live a comfortable life now, but we don't have much money to support it!"
"He just had an operation at home, and his son is getting older. How can we not make more money?"
"Besides, if you apply for internal withdrawal, you will still get a salary, but it will be less. It will not affect him from earning money elsewhere, which is good."
Several editors get together and basically understand everything once the news is combined.
"Not only that, it is said that the owner of this new website is extremely rich. Lao Su is responsible for copyright operations there. It is said that he received nearly 40,000 yuan in salary performance and bonuses at the end of the year!"
40000?!
Now everyone was shocked.
How much money do they make per month now?
If there were no special bonuses, the monthly allowances added up would be less than 4,000!
When this topic was mentioned, no one said anything for a moment.
Everyone was pondering in their minds, not knowing what they were thinking.
…
It took a long time before someone changed the topic:
"By the way, Guomu, didn't you say that your son brought a foreign wife back? What will we do next?"
"Yes, yes, if your son settles abroad, it will be difficult to meet him in the future!"
"If nothing else, air tickets are expensive during the holidays!"
Every household has no mines, so how can they afford to pay such transportation expenses?
Mentioning this, Guo Mu felt happy:
"I was worried at first, but who would have thought that the couple stayed in the Imperial Capital for more than a week during the Chinese New Year, and now Rosie said she doesn't want to go back and wants to live in the Imperial Capital with my son!"
Proud. Complacent. Satisfied.
These three words are not enough to describe Guoshu's current mood.
…
She looked at her colleagues who were waiting for gossip and then said:
"The girl's family is from Australia. They said they have a ranch. At first I thought that they must have a manor because they are such a rich family!"
"They also said there are subsidies for giving birth there..."
"Who knew that after Rosie stayed at our house for a week, we realized that life abroad is different from us!"
"The transportation, the standard of living, including water and electricity maintenance - there's a huge difference!"
Facing a group of curious colleagues, Guomu said with great joy.
"Fortunately, the house will be renovated by the end of the year. If they want to settle down now, they don't have to worry about anything else."
After speaking, he analyzed the life abroad to everyone, and everyone shook their heads. They had no idea what it would be like to buy a house without looking at the apartment type and school district, but first consider the safety environment.
…
After sighing, somehow, the crooked building was pulled back to its previous appearance——
"Guo Mu, can you ask Lao Su about the lead you gave me and see if he's still recruiting people?"
A monthly salary of 40,000 yuan, and everyone is an editor of the same level. Who wouldn’t want that?
Besides, didn’t Editor Su work part-time in the beginning?
They don't ask for internal withdrawal - after all, it's hard to find good companies nowadays, and it's even more difficult to maintain income during droughts and floods. Whether emerging websites can last for a long time is another matter.
But it’s okay to do part-time work, right?
We are all at this age, and it is almost time for our children to start a family and start a business. Now that money is becoming less and less useful, we must think of more ways.
…
Guomu shook his head: "Full-time employees must be given priority over there. I have to ask for more details - you can ask Lao Su directly!"
After a year of development, Dreamweaver Literature Network is now on the right track, and its financial report at the end of the year is basically balanced. This is a fairly fast return rate.
Now that there is no shortage of editors, naturally the conditions are not as favorable as they were at the beginning.
Guomu didn't bother everyone. She was working part-time now and really didn't understand much.
Colleagues were a little embarrassed:
"I didn't lend much money when Lao Su borrowed it. He has just stabilized here. If I ask about this again, won't it seem like I'm robbing others of their jobs?"
It's so embarrassing.
Everyone nodded one after another, probably having the same mentality.
…
Guomu also knew that Lao Su didn't lend much money at that time, so it wasn't like everyone didn't lend a hand.
It's really no coincidence.
The unit here is talking about welfare housing, and everyone in the entire office gets one - everyone has the same conditions. After buying the house, how much money will you have left?
So when something big happened to the old Su family, everyone just chipped in with a small part.
I am really short of money - even if I have some money left over, it will still be spent on eating, drinking and sleeping with the whole family.
Speaking of this, the big guy got energetic again:
"I heard from Lao Yang that you helped your author to buy Lao Yang's house again?"
…
Guomu quickly modestly said: "It was bought by her relatives. There were many things to do during the New Year, and the queue at the housing authority was long. I didn't have time to stay for two more days, so I signed the entrustment agreement directly——"
"The money hasn't been given yet!"
The topic changed instantly——
"It doesn't matter whoever buys it. The key point is that they came from other cities to buy a house. They obviously think the houses in our imperial capital are good!"
"You said that people from other places know this, so why can't Lao Yang think about selling his house?"
"Didn't his son just graduate? He won't need a house when talking about marriage in the future?"
"Yes, the property of the house in our unit is very cheap, the environment is good, and the location is not bad - let me tell you, my house was rented by a decoration team in the community, with 4 single rooms separated, and now they are all rented
out!"
"3,500 yuan a month!"
“What a deal!”
…
When it comes to houses, everyone is interested again.
Anyway, it’s Chinese New Year, so although they are required to work, there really isn’t much other work to do, so they might as well take this opportunity to chat for a while.
"Your family can collect rent, but mine can't. My daughter has a boyfriend, and this house will be left to her..."
"I am here too. My child wants to live on his own and I am looking for someone to decorate it..."
"Let me tell you, the decoration of the house I found is really good -"
The topic got mixed up again, but no one paid much attention to the small talk.
However, Guomu asked more: "Where is Lao Yang? You won't come to work today?"
Are there guests? When I left, I didn’t see any movement in the house opposite.
…
Speaking of Lao Yang, everyone has more to say.
"Don't mention it, my wife insists on going stock trading with Lao Yang. She said that it's a good start today, so she must stay in the trading hall..."
The editor who said this was very disdainful:
"If you want to make a fortune by stock trading, those people who jumped off buildings in the past will not count. I have already asked me to use the money I lost to buy a house. If he wants to use it, he can use his private money to play."
Guomu sighed: "I persuaded him when I inquired about the house. The children are grown, and it would be safe to have a house there to discuss marriage..."
Another editor came over mysteriously:
"What's the peace of mind for? It's Lao Yang's son, haven't you heard? He ate and drank in college. After graduating last year, he got pregnant with his girlfriend, and then insisted that the child was not his. Lao Yang's wife is also immoral.
, loud mouths are everywhere saying that parents are restless..."
…
"You said young people, break up when they break up, admit mistakes when they admit mistakes, but in the end they are still classmates, open your mouth so harshly!"
This kind of news is much more exciting than the topics we talked about before.
Guomu couldn't help but frown:
"It's okay to see Lao Yang normally..."
Colleagues scoffed:
"Then you must have never dealt with Old Yang's wife, that's it!"
"Then it's the girl who's so pitiful..."
"This is not the first time this girl has been pregnant. The previous time, Lao Yang lent my salary to his son and secretly beat him!"
"No, the girl is stupid, she has been coaxed back by sweet words again!"
Bringing up this kind of topic is really unreasonable and unclear for girls.
Of course, the same goes for boys.
…
But in short, the reputation of Lao Yang's family is there, and no one in the office is optimistic about it now.
The editor opposite even laughed happily:
"Not everyone in this world is a fool!"
"This girl is so stubborn, with a big belly, she went straight for a test, and took the report and said she was going to sue him!"
Oops!
This kind of thing is not something you just fall in love with. If someone insists on suing, even if Lao Yang wins, his son's reputation will be lost.
This girl is so brave!
Those who have seen the demeanor of Lao Yang's family have no sympathy at all.
…
"Good guy, do you know why Lao Yang is so anxious to speculate in stocks? And why he wants to sell his house to speculate in stocks?"
"Except for the house, all the money in the family has been paid to him! The whole family has been telling good stories just to prevent the girl from suing her son."
"Otherwise, if his son keeps a criminal record, which unit can ask for him in the future? There will be no way for him to take the public examination."
