"Jingle Bell!!!"
A shrill ringtone suddenly rang in the dim room.
Chen Yi, who was distracted, looked at the incoming call notification that kept flashing on the screen of his mobile phone. There was no note, it was a call from out of town.
After being silent for a long time, he finally chose to answer the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hello, Mr. Chen Yi, right? It shows that the 30,000 yuan you borrowed from Paimaidai has been overdue for 7 days. Our colleagues have also called you several times. Can you pay it back before six o'clock tonight? Up?"
"Today is the last day. If you don't get it today, I don't need to say more about the credit report or something."
“You only need to pay back 2,000 yuan for the first installment. Can’t a grown man afford 2,000 yuan?”
"I try my best."
"Don't say anything like this to me. It's you who owes money, not us who owe you money. I"
The words are not finished yet.
Chen Yi hung up the phone and muted his phone.
They were urging me hard, and he had received seven or eight calls today alone.
Paying back debts is a matter of course.
The problem is that he has no money now, not even a penny.
"."
After Chen Yi was silent for a long time, he walked out of the room and walked downstairs with his mobile phone and data cable. If he didn't go downstairs, the convenience store would be closed.
Chen Yi carried his mobile phone, laptop and data cable to a convenience store. After selling a few smiley faces to the cashier, he shamelessly sat on a chair in the convenience store, plugged the data cable into the socket, and started to give himself of mobile phones and computers.
Steal electricity.
Theft of electricity is always frowned upon.
But maybe this cashier had some difficult moments and quietly told him that as long as he was on duty, he could come and charge for free, but not if other employees were on duty.
is a good person.
When people encounter a little kindness in desperate situations, they will always remember it for a long time.
It was as if he was very grateful to the cashier in his heart and wanted to give something in return, but his pocket was empty. He could only express his gratitude by giving a few more smiles.
The only way for poor people to express their gratitude seems to be to smile.
A man who has a smile on his face all day long does not necessarily mean he is kind and has a good personality. He may also be penniless and put on a smile when he sees everyone, as if he can hide his inferiority in his trouser pocket.
About an hour passed.
Chen Yi stood up and thanked the cashier, then left the convenience store and returned to his empty house, which had long been out of power.
The mobile phone can be out of power, but the computer must have power.
After the failure of his business, he lost all his financial resources and still had a lot of debts waiting for him to repay. It would definitely be too late for him to go to work. He would have to pay a salary for nearly a month and a half when he went to work, so he couldn't wait until then.
Moreover, his salary is too low for his ability, and he cannot afford to repay the loan.
So after thinking about it for a few days, he came up with a new approach, which was to write.
An industry with zero cost but extremely high mortality rate.
If a thousand people write, nine hundred and ninety-nine will starve to death, and the remaining one can barely eat some meat.
But he entered the industry anyway.
Just like when he started a business, when he entered a certain industry, he never cared about the high mortality rate, he only cared about whether the return was enough for his expectations.
Just like every man thinks that he will be a warrior who will overcome all obstacles to marry the princess, he never believes that he will fall on the road. No matter how high the death rate is, he will survive.
Confidence is the last dignity of a man.
Perhaps the goddess of luck finally took care of him this time.
On the seventh day after publishing the book, he made more than 100 yuan a day.
Chen Yi sat in the dark room, casually dug some dog food from the dog food bowl and stuffed it into his mouth. He leaned over the faucet and drank some water. Then he touched the puppy that had been following him and looked at the dog in front of him. whispered on the computer screen.
"I'm not trying to compete with you for food. The main reason is that the economy has been really disappointing recently, and I'm also very hungry."
"When the money is paid next month, I will take you to have a nice meal."
It's good to have income every day, but this income will not be distributed until the 15th of next month, which is more than 20 days away. During this period, he still has to persevere.
If I can get 2,000 yuan next month, I can pay off the first installment of the loan first, and then buy some dry food or something, which will be enough for more than a month.
good.
It's developing in a good direction.
"Hello."
A girl walked to the convenience store just now, looked at the cashier, and asked calmly: "The man who left just now seems to be familiar to you. Do you know him?"
"What's wrong?"
The cashier raised his head and glanced at the girl in front of him and said casually: "I don't think I know him. I'm a man who has been a little depressed recently. I don't know his name. He comes down to recharge his batteries at this time every day."
"But I don't know if it's an illusion, although this man looks very depressed and can't even take out a dime in his pocket."
"But I always felt like he could get up."
"Do you know why?"
The cashier suddenly became excited and grinned like a magician: "Although this man is down and out and his clothes are not very clean, there is a sharpness in his eyes. How can I say that sharpness? He has a feeling of dissatisfaction." .”
"The waist is very straight."
"A person who cannot be defeated is terrible."
"I guess you have encountered some difficulties recently. We are all workers, so it is not easy. If you can help, please help. After all, the electricity bill is paid by the boss, right?"
"oh oh."
The girl nodded thoughtfully, then bit her lip and said with slight hesitation: "I'll leave you a phone number. Next time he comes, can you ask him to add me on WeChat?"
"sure."
The cashier patted his chest confidently and promised: "But he will come down at this time every day. If you want to find him, why don't you wait for him here tomorrow?"
"I'm just here today on a business trip, but I won't be here tomorrow."
"Oh, that's how it is."
The cashier nodded and stuffed the piece of paper with the mobile phone number into the drawer: "I have remembered this, don't worry, but I have to remind you if you should say something. If you have a crush on this man, now is obviously not a good time.”
"A down-and-out man is like a completely wary hedgehog."
"Any favorable impression of the opposite sex from the outside world will be viewed as provocation and contempt by them."
"What's the meaning?"
"Literally, okay, what's your name? I'll make a note of it."
"Jia Ye."
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely teach him the note tomorrow."
The second day.
Chen Yi slept until mid-afternoon. After getting up and washing briefly, he sat on the bed in a daze and began to fall into a trance.
After a while, I was about to go downstairs to the convenience store to recharge as usual.
"."
After seeing the cashier change, Chen Yi was a little dazed. After a pause, he still hesitated and said: "Hello, isn't the chubby cashier supposed to be on duty now?"
"You said Lao Li, Lao Li was fired."
"Why?"
"The boss is very angry because he lets you charge for free every day."
And at this time.
Tutu Rabbit and the others, who had already gotten up, yawned and walked to the rooftop, rubbed their sleepy eyes and glanced around.
"Hey, where is Brother Yi?"
"Jiaye is also missing. Where did these two people go early in the morning?"
"Leave us alone and go off to the map?"
The next second——
Chen Yi and Jia Ye appeared on the rooftop at the same time.
Jia Ye's face was filled with tears. The moment he saw Chen Yi, he immediately threw himself into Chen Yi's arms, sobbing unbearably as the tears kept pouring out, and his arms tightly hugged Chen Yi's waist.
Chen Yi's eyes were also red, his mouth was tight, and he hugged Jia Ye into his arms, patting Jia Ye's back gently as if to comfort him.
Tutu Tu, who had just lit a cigarette and was about to wake up, saw this and turned his head in confusion to look at Jian Wuya beside him, swallowed secretly, and whispered in a trembling voice: "Brother Yi's eyes are red?"
"Brother Yi and I have been together for many years, and this is the first time I see Brother Yi's eyes turn red."
"Even when Brother Yi was sure that his parents would not come to pick him up, his eyes were not red. He just sat alone on the wall for a night and never went to the wall again."
"Now.?"
He actually wanted to ask Jia Ye, what did you do to Brother Yi on the map just now, so hard that your eyes turned red because of Brother Yi?
