"Hello."
"..."
"oh."
"..."
"Oh, I'm fine."
"..."
"Okay, okay, I will report tomorrow. Thank you, supervisor."
Duan Jiabao hung up the phone, looked at Jiang Xiaoguo, then at Luo Yan, and said with a little timidity: "Shitou, tomorrow's job fair... I may not be able to go with you. Director Qian called just now and asked me to Go back to work and continue to take care of Ouyang Yushuang."
Because she forgot that Ouyang Yushuang was allergic to seafood, she developed a rash on her face and was unable to work for half a month. Manager Qian fired her in anger, and now he called her to ask if she was interested in returning to the company. Under the current circumstances, there was no reason for her not to agree.
3,000 yuan a month was a small amount of money for her in the past. She could go to Hong Kong and buy whatever she wanted. But now it is different. It can cover three months of living expenses. She will live on this job for the next six months. .
Luo Yan heard that she was a little disappointed, but she didn't show it: "Oh, you go ahead, I can go to the job fair alone."
"Then these bags."
"Can I contact Sister Song for the Alibaba leather goods on the first floor of Xinghe Coco Park? Don't worry, I'll deliver them there early tomorrow morning."
When Jiang Xiaoguo heard about it, she immediately understood what Duan Jiabao was going to do: "Dabao, you want to sell these bags to physical stores? Those people keep the prices very low, why don't you just sell them to girls in the same city as salted fish?"
Duan Jiabao said: "That's too slow. Lili will be participating in a show this weekend. I have to prepare gifts quickly."
"..."
What else can Jiang Xiaoguo say? It's like chasing stars. It's useless to persuade her. Unless her idol does or says something that she can't accept, or she is hit hard by reality, she won't be able to wake up.
…
the next day.
Luo Yan took a bunch of luxury goods that Duan Jiabao had packed up, such as Hermès Birkin bags, LV bucket bags, etc., and brought them to the physical store in Galaxy Coco Park that Duan Jiabao mentioned. After inspecting the goods, she watched the store manager transfer the money. In the past, after finishing my work, I went back to school, printed out a few resumes, and went to the autumn recruitment meeting.
At this time, the autumn recruitment is coming to an end, and the companies coming to the school are basically supplementary admissions and expansion enrollment.
Compared with September and October, there were a lot fewer people attending the job fair, because a large part of the graduates have already found jobs, and the rest are either preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination or the public service examination, or they are a group of people who are unable to achieve a high level or are delayed by force majeure factors. s student.
Luo Yan walked around the venue for a long time.
Wind power company, Shenzhen Energy, Chint Electric, Bairong Yunchuang, Smart Bud...
Look at this, a state-owned enterprise. There was a long queue in front of the window. She weighed her weight and thought it was better to forget it.
Look at that, in a financial company, if she doesn’t have the right expertise, people will definitely not want her.
After much selection, I chose a team-building company called Feiyue Team-Building. Its business scope was event planning, corporate annual meetings, group tours, etc. This was fairly consistent with what I had learned in the past three years, so I walked over and waited to submit my resume.
Because team building companies are generally small in scale and private companies, there are not many people who apply for the job, and she was quickly placed in the queue.
"Hello, my name is Luo Yan. I am a senior graduate of the Department of Tourism Management."
As she spoke, she handed her resume to the man in his thirties opposite.
The interviewer looked up at her and threw the resume into the drawer next to her: "I accepted the resume. You go back and wait for the notification."
Without asking questions or understanding the situation, he just asked her to go back and wait for notification. What does this mean? The answer is obvious.
"Can you tell me why?"
"what why?"
"My resume is not done well, or does it not meet the requirements of this position?"
Jiang Xiaoguo once said that during the interview, the interviewer usually asks a few questions. After all, it is campus autumn recruitment, and applicants are basically on the same starting line. Enterprises will definitely not be as strict as social recruitment.
The interviewer said, "You really want to know?"
Luo Yan nodded.
"Okay, I think there's something wrong with your attitude."
"manner?"
The interviewer pointed to her hair. Yes, it was the red hair that declared to the whole world that she would not bow her head.
"Sir, with all due respect, today's young people are not like those born in the 70s and 80s. They pursue individuality and fashion and do not restrain themselves. Shenzhen is a young city with a low degree of aging. Most of the clients of the team building company are 40 years old. To the following employees, I think your company should recruit fresh blood like me who understands the thoughts of today's young people. If you think there is something wrong with my attitude just because I dyed my hair red, is it too rash?"
"Yes, you have great ideas." The interviewer nodded, appreciating her courage to think and speak out in this regard: "We do need fresh blood, but talents with ideas must meet a major premise. First, you are the company's leader. employees, and secondly an individual who is independent, outspoken and knowledgeable. If you cannot serve this group, then everything in your mind will be a castle in the air for us. Let’s put it this way, what you are subconsciously looking for is a partner. Rather than becoming a steel nail in the collective, what is the meaning of team building activities for our customers? Have you ever thought about it? If we, the planners, cannot have a strong sense of teamwork and cooperation, how can we help them? Customers achieve their goals? Young people, don't always think about cool-sounding words like 'revolution', 'creation', and 'pioneering'. As a newcomer, being down-to-earth is more precious than having an unbridled imagination."
"But……"
The interviewer didn't want to continue to pester her, so he tilted his head and said, "Next person."
Luo Yan had no choice but to walk outside the team. At this time, two people in the team pointed at her, but she glared back hard.
She was very unconvinced by the interviewer's words, thinking that this was the old people in society ostracizing and suppressing the younger generation, just like those ugly, old, and wretched villains in anime and games who only play power games.
Next, she submitted several more resumes, but unfortunately, they all failed. One of the answers she gave was that her major did not meet the job requirements, another one said that she did not have a deep understanding of the company's business, and the remaining two did not add details. The answer was just that it was inappropriate, but Luo Yan knew that 90% of the time it was because her red hair was too flamboyant.
So, can you turn your hair back to black?
First of all, she doesn't have that much money, but she can try to borrow it from the dormitory next door. One or two hundred yuan from a small shop should be enough.
But the problem is not here, the problem is what red hair means to her--even if everyone betrays me, I will not compromise with something I don't like, Shitou, why does she want others to call her that, because This is her quality, as solid as a rock, as stable as a rock, if you want to change her, just dream!
Luo Yan didn't know that while she was bumping into walls below, a man wearing sunglasses on the second floor of the auditorium was watching her every move while cracking melon seeds.
After watching too many hot-blooded dramas, I always thought that I would be the protagonist who smashes the rotten old world. It is difficult to recover from chuunibyou without enduring a few beatings from society. Just like in "Children of the Qiao Family", some people always I feel that the police could see clearly that Qiao Zuwang was murdered by Qu Aying. If the reality was so ideal, there would be no "killing chicken" profession that shows the evil of human nature.
"Hey, is this Mr. Zheng from Spring and Autumn International Travel Service?"
After watching Luo Yan leave, Lin Yue took out his cell phone and dialed someone's number.
"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that I have a big order that can support your company for two months. I can introduce this deal to you, but in exchange, you must promise me one thing. .”
"..."
…
Five days later.
Just when Luo Yan was fighting to the death even after being beaten to death at the Qiuzhao site, Duan Jiabao and Ouyang Yushuang came to the rest area of Yifangtiandi Shopping Center.
"Sister Yushuang, walk slower, slower..."
Duan Jiabao had Ouyang Yushuang's bucket bag hanging on his left shoulder, and in his hand was a cup of latte he just bought at Starbucks. In his right hand were his own bag, a parasol, and a thermos.
With her size, she would be out of breath after walking a few steps without carrying these things. Now holding these, she has to catch up with Ouyang Yushuang, who is walking gracefully in a pair of flat shoes in front of her. There is only one word to describe it, and that is "difficult" .
"I said Duan Jiabao, you've just walked a few steps and you're tired? Hurry up."
Not only did Ouyang Yushuang not stop and wait for her, but he walked faster.
Huchi, wheeze...
Duan Jiabao gasped and rushed forward.
She suspected that Ouyang Yushuang did it on purpose, just to avenge the previous incident that made her covered in rashes and unable to work for half a month.
First, as an agent, this is indeed her fault; second, now she relies on this job to support herself, and the 1,000 yuan given by her parents... is really not enough. In fact, she has been sending money to her home a lot in the past two days. She called, but she didn't know whose biological father, who had always doted on her, had listened to someone's slander and refused to let go. The monthly living expenses were only 1,000 yuan, without giving her a penny more. She wanted love or not, and it was not enough for her to earn it.
She also said that she was an adult and had to learn to rely on herself. Her parents could not protect her for the rest of her life.
She had no choice but to endure Ouyang Yushuang's difficulties.
"Duan Jiabao!"
"Hey, it's coming, it's coming."
"Look what time it is? There are still a few minutes until the time agreed with the organizer."
"It's now 2:11 p.m., a little over half an hour away."
"I'm tired after walking around for a few times, so sit down and rest for a while."
Ouyang Yushuang walked to a bench and stretched out his hand.
Duan Jiabao quickly served the latte from Starbucks.
Ouyang Yushuang said: "Don't you order cold brew every time you drink Starbucks? What happened today?"
"I...I'm not thirsty."
This was just a lie to herself. Others were not blind and could not see the sweat on her forehead.
The real reason is that it’s too expensive and I can’t afford to drink it. Ouyang Yushuang can be reimbursed for her drinks, but she can’t. Let’s just say that the malt snow cold brew that she has liked so much in the past six months costs nearly 60 yuan a cup. A dozen or twenty cups can make the difference. She's broke.
I used to have all the black cards in my hand, but now it's not like before, and it's not like I don't know, I'm shocked when I think about it.
Not to mention the cost of meals, transportation and phone bills alone are a big expense.
At this time, Ouyang Yushuang stretched out his hand again.
"What?"
"Sunglasses."
"Sunglasses? There's no sun in here."
"Duan Jiabao, are you stupid? I am a smart person now. What if I get recognized by people passing by and ask for a photo, which delays my work."
Duan Jiabao thought to himself, didn't you just play a supporting role in "The Legend of Butterfly Love in the Qing Dynasty", called Concubine Xi? You really regarded yourself as an onion.
Of course, complaints are complaints, and work is work.
She obediently handed over the sunglasses.
Ouyang Yushuang took it and put it on, drinking coffee with a straw in his mouth and looking at the passers-by walking in front of him.
When Duan Jiabao saw that he had time, he quickly transferred the more than 10,000 yuan he had collected from selling luxury goods to the leader of the support group. He also chatted about the content of the event on WeChat and expressed regret that he could not make it to Hunan to participate.
"oops."
At this time, an exclamation came out, which scared her so much that she almost dropped her phone on the ground.
"Duan Jiabao."
Ouyang Yushuang suddenly took off his eyes: "Where are my high heels?"
To participate in events, you must wear high heels to enhance your look, but for daily walking, even an artist like Ouyang Yushuang will not have trouble with his feet, so he usually prepares two or three pairs of shoes when going out. As for whether they are cumbersome or not... Duan Jiabao This kind of role is euphemistically called an agent, but it is actually an assistant. There is no reason to use free labor.
"High heels, high heels..."
Duan Jiabao was stunned for a moment. He looked through this bag and that bag, but he couldn't find Ouyang Yushuang's high heels.
"Sister Yushuang, I think... I left it in the taxi."
On the way here, she had been chatting with the plums from the support group, and this distraction caused something to go wrong.
"There's only half an hour left for the event to start. What are you doing standing around? Think of something quickly." Ouyang Yushuang looked around and said, "Well, that's the shoe section over there. Go and see if there's anything suitable."
Duan Jiabao sat there with a grimace, motionless.
"Duan Jiabao, why don't you go?"
"I...I...have no money."
Ouyang Yushuang looked at her in disbelief. Did Duan Jiabao say that he would have no money?
Coming and going in business class, she said that sitting in economy class was uncomfortable. She eats and sleeps in five-star hotels. She said she likes to watch TV while taking a bath in the big bathtub.
If such a person suddenly says one day that she has no money, nine out of ten people will not believe it.
"Duan Jiabao, are you kidding me?"
"I'm not kidding, I really have no money. Just a week ago, my parents stopped my credit card."
"What a waste. You have no money and you are still standing here stupidly. Why don't you think of a solution quickly?"
Duan Jiabao shivered, quickly put his things on the bench, and called the taxi company to find shoes.
At the same time, behind the corridor on the second floor of the shopping mall, Jiang Xiaoguo looked at Duan Jiabao who was embarrassed below with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Dabao actually has a day when he is poor. This is really..."
Lin Yue said: "It's nice to hear it, right?"
Jiang Xiaoguo did not argue with him on this issue because she suddenly realized that something was wrong with his tone. It was not entirely true that he was gloating about his misfortune, but it had some expected meaning.
"Did you do it when Dabao's parents decided to stop the two siblings' credit cards?"
ps: The monthly votes have been doubled, so remember to vote. There are almost three chapters today.
