Before getting off the bus, Dong Qiangqiang ordered Lu Shan to put the cowhide envelope away. Lu Shan refused to obey and declared that Dong Qiangqiang would not stay if he did not accept the payment. Dong Qiangqiang saw that he was sincere, and the monthly meal and room expenses were not much. , no longer nagging, and they worked together to carry all the luggage to the third floor.
The weight of the suitcase was not light. Dong Qiangqiang leaned back in the chair and breathed heavily. He felt inexplicably sad: since he no longer engaged in strenuous "sports" such as catching wild boars, he switched to copywriting work such as studying financial reports of listed companies. Afterwards, his physical strength plummeted. Of course, it may also be related to the fact that he has been lying in bed watching TV series and inactive for the past few days.
"Brother Qiang, your room is very orderly. It's not like a boys' room at all. It's more than ten times cleaner than our dormitory..." Lu Shan stood in the middle of the room with a red face and looked around, not shying away from his "scandal". .
Dong Qiangqiang smiled bitterly in his heart. The house had been tidied up less than an hour ago. If he had seen how miserable he was a few days ago, he would probably be shocked.
Lu Shan strolled to the window and looked out: "You open the window and you see the scenery. When you close the window, you see the birds and the nets. It's so enjoyable. This is the true meaning of hiding in a small building and uniting, don't care about winter or summer." With Chunqiu, 'Ah, tsk tsk, that's not bad. No wonder you and my sister both went abroad. You know the conditions are so good, I didn't even study for half a semester, it would be great to come out directly..."
"The undergraduate education in domestic public universities is the best in the world, and German universities admit that you should graduate after completing your studies." Dong Qiangqiang lamented.
"It's a pity that I have no way out..." Lu Shan spread his hands and made a helpless expression.
Dong Qiangqiang touched the suitcase with his foot: "Stop talking about this, wash your face, and then bring your passport, preparatory exam notice and change. I will take you to eat Turkish barbecue first, and then go to the city hall to register and change Visa, then go to the city center to find a private insurance company and pay one month's insurance premium first, and then switch to public insurance after passing the preparatory course. After all these are done, let's go to the preparatory college to check out some places. If you still have time, you can visit the city center Even if it’s a scenic spot that’s close to the city, like the City Hall, it’s almost enough time in an afternoon. Tomorrow you study hard at home, and the day after tomorrow you go to the exam, and after the exam I’ll take you around.”
"Okay, Brother Qiang, I listen to you." Lu Shan thanked him from the bottom of his heart, "Your arrangement must be reasonable. If I were to do it myself, I would be in a hurry and not know where to start..."
Dong Qiangqiang waved his hand: "These are trivial matters. Anyone who has experienced them once knows. In this way, you can clean up first, and we will set off in 10 minutes."
"Brother Qiang, I'll try this tonight." Lu Shan said, pointing to the sleeping bag hanging on the side panel of the closet.
"No, you will sleep in this room this month."
"how about you?"
"I have a buddy who lives downstairs. If he goes out during this period, I can stay in his room."
"Isn't this a man occupying a magpie's nest?" Lu Shan was very embarrassed, "It's okay for me to sleep in a sleeping bag, Brother Qiang..."
"Bring your things with you. I'll call you later." Dong Qiangqiang patted his shoulder, turned around and walked out the door.
Thinking that Lu Shan might stay at his place for a long time, Dong Qiangqiang decided from the beginning that it would be better to pay the rent to the landlord Sasha as soon as possible, lest the other party come to try to force him. Although we usually have a good relationship, foreigners usually make a clear distinction between money and friendship. As Lu Shan said, he can't escape the money and will have to pay it sooner or later.
He explained the situation to the landlord in a few words. Considering that Dong Qiangqiang frequently used, maintained and cleaned public spaces on weekdays, never defaulted on rent, and also sent him samples of foreign cosmetics and Chinese delicacies from time to time, Sasha not only happily agreed to him The request came with a little discount: Dong Qiangqiang was only allowed to pay half of the rent.
After paying the rent, he wanted to call Lu Shan downstairs, but he accidentally saw newspapers and advertisements coming out of the mail slot of his mailbox. He hesitated for two seconds and opened the mailbox.
Although he was careful with his movements, something fell from the mailbox to the ground the moment he opened the mailbox door.
Dong Qiangqiang simply pulled everything in the mailbox to the ground and squatted on the ground to sort everything.
Newspapers and junk ads were quickly sorted, and the rest were letters.
The school emblems of every university in Germany are unique. Dong Qiangqiang took a moment to distinguish them carefully and recognized that the letters were sent from the University of Berlin, the University of Leipzig and the Technical University of Dresden.
He had received three rejection letters and knew that since the rejection letter was only one page, the envelope would be thin.
The three letters were stacked quietly on the dark gray floor. Judging from the thickness of the envelopes, he had a bad feeling.
His heart was beating fast, as if he was excited and scared as if he was getting a visa for the first time.
Finally, he tore open the top letter, and the content was just as he expected: Dear Mr. Dong, thank you very much for applying for the business management major of our school... Although you are excellent, it is a pity...
Dong Qiangqiang suddenly felt that he was ridiculous. Before, he looked down on East German universities, but unexpectedly, he couldn't even get an admission notice from East German universities. He had the nerve to help Lu Shan. It was so generous.
"Brother Qiang, there are so many letters?" Lu Shan stood behind him unknowingly, "Shall I take it back for you?"
"Well, no need." Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to show off in front of Lu Shan, and hurriedly threw the letters into his backpack, threw the newspaper back into the mailbox, and balled up the junk advertisement in his hand, "Let's go."
Under the August sun, Dong Qiangqiang led Lu Shan to finish the Turkish barbecue, and then went through the standard landing procedures for international students. After everything was settled, the two went to the preparatory school again.
The preparatory school was not open during the summer vacation, so Lu Shan could only take a quick look outside.
Seeing that it was still early, Dong Qiangqiang wanted to take him for a walk around Mashi Lake, but he felt that Masi Lake was not very beautiful and difficult to discern, so he simply took him to Volkswagen City.
Seeing with his own eyes the three-dimensional parking lot that is full of futuristic technology and full of mechanical feel, Lu Shan was so shocked that he exclaimed "It's so cool" and repeatedly lamented that "the trip was worth it".
On the way back, he took Lu Shan to visit the nearby attractions. However, Lu Shan was a man of science and engineering and was not very interested in traditional German architecture and cultural landscapes. Instead, he preferred those with a strong sense of science and technology. He begged Dong Qiangqiang to visit After the exam, I can take him to see more places like Volkswagen Auto City.
Time flew by and it was night. It was still not dark, so Dong Qiangqiang took Lu Shan to "Big Ox Bones" again. After drinking and eating, he took Lu Shan to different supermarkets, guiding Lu Shan to buy necessary daily necessities and stocking up his refrigerator.
The two of them returned home with a full load. There was still a traffic light away from home, and the car stopped in front of the zebra crossing.
The clouds roll in the sky with a beautiful, gentle rhythm, as if they are dancing with the sunset.
Lu Shan seemed to be very excited. He was not tired from flying for more than ten hours. Instead, he was dancing and happily talking about what he had seen in the afternoon.
After all, he is a young man, Dong Qiangqiang sighed while echoing the other party, while casting his eyes towards the church in the distance.
The moment his eyes crossed the church tower, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he seemed to have remembered something. He quickly moved his eyes back, staring at the tower in a daze unconsciously.
Before he could think about it carefully, the green light in front of him turned on, and the car parked next to him rushed out quickly. Dong Qiangqiang did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly started the car and drove towards home.
The church spire flickered in and out between the top floors of other buildings, until it was completely blocked.
Realizing what he had just thought of in an instant, Dong Qiangqiang felt a palpitation in his heart.
Will this method work? He asked himself softly, if it worked, would he be able to find someone?
