Song Tan's Notes

The Chinese New Year is a wonderful vacation for some people, but for others, it is layer upon layer of pressure.

Chen Yuan's family is the latter.

His situation is known to his relatives and friends.

In addition, I stayed at home until the Chinese New Year, and I didn't hear of any work. Now is the time to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, and every household has to ask questions when I see them.

Although there are many relatives who try to introduce them with good intentions, and some even directly call their acquaintances or relatives to inquire about job positions.

Chen Yuan's parents didn't even have time to stop him, so they just stood there in embarrassment.

Feeling this embarrassment, Chen Yuan was once again grateful that he had seized that job opportunity years ago.

But now, when his relatives hung up the phone again and looked at his parents apologetically, Chen Yuan finally sorted out his words in his mind.

Just as I was about to speak, I heard my relative say:

"Look...Chen Yuan, it's not that we don't want to try to pull some strings, it's just that your situation is a bit difficult..."

"But, don't be angry. Your cousin and I still have strong connections. The bosses of many companies and factories are good friends with me. I'll say a few words later and let's make an appointment to have a meal together. You can find a factory and work as a security guard there. "

"You can't look down on security guards. Many college students want to do this now, just for leisure."

Chen's parents and Chen's mother finally couldn't help but wanted to say that Chen Yuan had found a job. At this moment, they were filled with joy. Just as they were about to speak, they heard Chen Yuan speak first:

"Thank you, cousin. The security guard is very good and I like to work."

“But my job is settled, it’s just not in place yet.”

What?

The relatives all pricked up their ears: "What kind of job? Where is it? How much does it cost per month? Can you do it with your current body?"

This series of questions were asked all over the place, and everyone looked over with bright eyes, obviously very interested in understanding.

Father Chen and Mother Chen were about to say they were also working as security guards, but the salary seemed pretty good.

Chen Yuan said calmly: "I'm just doing some security work... I'm in another place, it's not convenient to disclose it, and the place is relatively remote..."

"Who introduced me? Oh, some of my previous relationships..."

"How much is the salary? The salary is not high, just 4000 yuan. I didn't ask anything else. I will obey whatever arrangements are made..."

hiss!

Everyone read this sentence carefully, and now they seemed to have realized something extraordinary.

Security work - oh yo! Let's just say that Xiaoyuan is a promising kid. Now that his legs are like this, he can still have such an important task... Isn't he just like the king of soldiers on TV before?

The place is still remote, so it’s not convenient to reveal...

Got it, got it! They all use the Internet frequently, and they understand that there are some places that they just can’t tell, even if they can’t find them on the map.

Ouch! If you have a good future, what’s the point of being remote? Wage or not is actually not a big problem.

After all, in that environment, salary may only be an insignificant part of it, and the invisible benefits are the most important.

Xiaoyuan must be savvy!

See what others say? How to arrange and obey!

Listen! What a trustworthy flavor!

The atmosphere instantly became more harmonious.

The relatives who had been fussing about helping him find a job enthusiastically served him tea and fruits, and then asked again: "Chen Yuan, you are now 30. Have you considered the target?" "

And the honest father and mother Chen were sitting there, thinking carefully about their son's words.

Nothing seemed wrong, but nothing seemed right.

It's security work, and the place is indeed quite remote. I have some previous relationships with my former comrades...

The two of them were surrounded by a lively atmosphere, and they were becoming more and more confused at this moment.

When I went home in the evening, my parents were riding an electric car, and Chen Yuan was following a shared electric car next to them.

There was no one on the road late at night, and they rode slowly, one behind the other and chatting while riding.

"Xiaoyuan, why do you make your job so mysterious?"

“Aren’t we just working as security guards in the village, looking at the rice fields and looking after the cattle and sheep?”

"I don't have one." Chen Yuan said seriously:

"My classmates all reminded me like that. Even if you look at the rice fields, the rice is probably not supplied to ordinary people... so you can feel more comfortable."

Mother Chen muttered: "I'm afraid that if relatives ask about your work in the future, I won't be able to speak up. If you want to introduce someone, you have to know what you are doing."

"Not in a hurry."

Now that the work has been decided, although there will be a lot of gossip during the New Year, my parents will not be wronged overall.

Chen Yuan's whole person's brilliance gradually rose again, and he was one or two years younger than his previous depressed state.

As a result, I am no longer so worried about the future.

At this moment, he took the initiative to comfort his parents: "I'm going to take a look at the work environment first, and then think about the future. Can we wait until these things are sorted out before we talk about the partner? Otherwise, it will be in a different place now, and it will not be easy to talk. become."

"Go, go, go."

It's so hard for a son, so the mother doesn't have to push him, she just wants to give him more consideration. Now that they have a plan, they are naturally more confident.

When Chen Yuan returned home and looked at his neatly packed luggage, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

If I have four days off every month, it will take more than ten hours to go back and forth on the high-speed train and travel, making it a bit difficult to go home.

But in his current situation, staying at home for unnecessary company would only cause rumors to hurt his parents.

He looked down at his leg again, took out his disability certificate and put it away, and finally sighed deeply.

……

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, the high-speed rail station was once again crowded with people.

Most of them carry large and small bags from their hometown to another distant place, running for life.

Chen Yuan informed their small group of 23 people, and then took the certificate and entered the high-speed rail station directly.

The high-speed rail security check is much more convenient than that of an airplane. You can pass the security check smoothly after showing your ID and showing your injured leg in a separate room.

And as he strode along with the surging crowd, there was no trace of his prosthetic limbs in his movements.

After stuffing the suitcase on top, he helped the little girl sitting next to him put the suitcase on top. Chen Yuan sat there and let out a long sigh of relief. Inexplicably, he felt a faint sense of nervousness about his future working environment. .

The girl next to her put down the table, with her cell phone standing on it, and turned to look for her headphones.

She should be watching the live broadcast. Chen Yuan had no intention of watching, but the live broadcast was broadcast externally, and the boy's refreshing voice came from inside:

"...Sister said we won't be allowed to go to class because of the big holiday."

"... Let's show the children our working environment and accommodation environment today! New employees will arrive tomorrow... My sister said they will be cool brothers..."

The voice was clear, and there was a hint of innocence in the tone, which made people want to continue listening.

Chen Yuan subconsciously glanced over and saw the boy pushing open a large iron door and walking towards the self-built building on one side.

Huh?

He frowned, feeling that this picture looked familiar.

I wanted to explore further, but I saw that the girl beside me had already taken out her earphones and enthusiastically passed her phone to the side:

"Do you also like to watch Qiaoqiao's live broadcast? Let's watch it together!"

As she spoke, she sighed exaggeratedly: "Without Qiaoqiao live broadcasting the dinner during the Chinese New Year, I feel that the New Year's Eve dinner is not as delicious... I prepared a lot of New Year's money and year-end bonuses, and prepared to go shopping in the store! But he still had nothing. Not selling it... is too much..."

This girl seems to be a talker. Chen Yuan hasn't said a word yet, so she started talking a lot by herself.

But fortunately, no personal privacy was revealed, and the male anchor named Qiao Qiao was all he said.

This made Chen Yuan frown slightly again.

But everyone's life and pastime are different, and he doesn't intend to make too many comments. Just when I glanced over subconsciously, I saw the door being opened, revealing a brand new, unoccupied dormitory environment inside.

what? !

This time he was really shocked.

Because the scene in front of him was not only familiar, but he even took it out and took a look at it every now and then. Want to see from the details what exactly you need to prepare for your accommodation environment?

He took the earphones and thanked him, and then asked curiously: "Is this anchor famous?"

"Qiao Qiao?" the girl said "Ah": "I thought you were an old fan of Qiao Qiao! It turns out you just know him..."

"Well... to be objective, Qiao Qiao is not famous, because the live streaming platform he is on does not have that much traffic."

"But if we talk about fan stickiness and purchasing power, I feel he must be a well-known anchor."

"Anyway, I will go wherever Qiaoqiao goes."

Fan stickiness? Purchasing power?

Chen Yuan subconsciously asked: "Does he usually make a living by bringing goods?"

The girl's originally cheerful expression suddenly collapsed. :

"It would be great if he could live by carrying goods."

"You can look at his online store and you'll see there's nothing there! In the past, there was no limit to tea, but for 1 yuan a pound, who would drink it? I'm still wondering who is this kind of person who is being taken advantage of?"

"Fortunately, I am still a long-time fan. I only bought Honey once. I bought it because it was not easy for him. But after I bought it, I didn't even know how to seize the opportunity to look at other products..."

"The unknown tea has ordinary packaging...but these are all tricks to confuse people! I doubt he wants to sell it at all!"

The girl was extremely depressed: "Ever since I bought a trial pack, do you know that feeling? My heart is broken, and I just hate that the person who was taken advantage of is not me..."

The other party’s words are so thick!

While Chen Yuan was listening to the live broadcast in his headphones and her chattering, his brain's CPU was almost burning up.

But fortunately, I finally figured out something roughly. I took out my phone and searched for the online store where [Pastoral Notes] was broadcast live.

At a glance, there are quite a lot of things inside. Tea, honey, white fungus, dried cowpea, chili sauce, soy beans, watermelon sauce, chickpea...

There are so many different kinds, everything is there.

But the price above is too shocking—all 9999 yuan? !

Does everything cost 1 yuan?

Chen Yuan frowned, and now he clicked on a link, only to see a few eye-catching characters on the blood-red background map on the details page:

[Don’t buy it, don’t buy it! If you buy it, it won’t be shipped. We will cancel it if you buy it! No goods, really no goods! 】

The sales volume is 0, but the reviews are densely packed, and everyone is eager to show pictures of the products. Thousands of them are piled up in the question and answer area.

Everyone praised and shouted loudly, just wishing that the shop owner would read the comments and give them another chance.

Is online shopping live streaming so crazy these days?

Chen Yuan didn't quite understand.

Before he could understand, Qiaoqiao in the live broadcast had already held up the camera and walked around the room, while the girl sighed:

"Hey, I, Qiao Bao, am so honest. I have to tell you something. Even the bed board is only 1m2. I have to explain clearly... This dormitory is really spacious. Food and accommodation are included. I cry with envy just thinking about it..."

Ok?

Chen Yuan didn't understand a little.

He looked at the girl beside him. Although she was dressed casually, the fabric and workmanship shouldn't be that cheap, right?

It’s not like you’re envious just because of this, right?

He hesitated: "The anchor Qiaoqiao just said that the salary is 4000, living in a dormitory and eating in the canteen, do you think it is good?"

"Please!" The girl looked at him: "What otherworldly words are you talking about? In the environment of Qiaoqiao's family, you are already very happy if you eat for free, okay?"

"And their village has a good way of farming. The arrowroot powder I bought from that village is much better than what is on the market. My mother praised it very much."

"And in the village, as long as you don't spend money in vain, life is really happy. Unlike me, the salary is quite high, but the rent is half of it. It's not possible without renting. I can't catch the subway every day. An hour or two..."

The girl sighed, then held up her cell phone and posted a barrage without any hesitation.

Chen Yuan took a look and found that what was written was——

[Ah ah ah Qiao Bao, are you still recruiting people? My aunt wants to go there too! 】

Aunt? !

Chen Yuan didn't quite understand the sense of identity of Yun Yang's children. At this moment, he looked at the girl next to him and felt that she was really good at looking good!

But as soon as the barrage was sent out, it was lost in the same overwhelming barrage.

Chen Yuan suddenly became curious.

He thought for a while and asked curiously: "Which live broadcast platform is this? I'll go check it out next."

"Okay! Come and let me teach you!"

The girl was very enthusiastic about Amway, especially when the other party picked her up on the spot, which made her feel full of accomplishment!

……

Here, Qiao Qiao walked out of the factory holding her cell phone, and then went to the canteen to take a look.

Zhai Xiaofeng and her daughter usually stay in the dormitory, but the mother and daughter cook in the kitchen during the holidays. Not only do they keep the account books clearly, but they also keep the kitchen clean and tidy every day.

At this moment, I opened the door and walked in. In the huge canteen, the disinfection cabinets were polished to a shiny finish.

Rows and rows of tables and chairs were deserted, and even the floor looked increasingly bare.

Looking through the transparent glass, the stainless steel stove in the kitchen is also clean.
