Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 225 High-tech Products
"Boss, why are you so happy today?"

The Spring Festival in 2004 was very early, and January 1 was the first day of the new year. As the year drew to a close, there were naturally more gatherings. On the evening of the 22th, the eldest brother went to a junior high school reunion and came back singing. The second brother asked curiously, "Did you run into your old lover at the reunion?"

The boss looked around and found Xianglan was not in the living room. So he was not in a hurry and sat on the sofa before saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? You know what happened to me back then. How can you write a self-criticism if you look at a girl too many times? "

"Maybe you have a crush on her in your heart, but you didn't say it out loud at first because you were afraid to write a self-criticism, and now you finally see her." The second brother guessed. When he said this, A Yao, A Zu and Kang Qirui all looked at the eldest brother Guang with amusement.

Big Brother Guang was anxious at this time, and quickly clarified: "No, don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, if your sister-in-law finds out, she will quarrel with me again." He took out a machine from his pocket, "I'm happy because I got a good thing today, take a look."

Ah Zu's eyes widened, and he snatched the device from Da Lao Guang's hand and said, "Wow, it's the 2003 version of the electronic notepad. It's selling for more than a thousand dollars in stores outside. Why would you spend that much money on something like this?"

"Silly." Big Brother Guang smiled disdainfully and said, "Would I spend more than a thousand yuan to buy this thing? Let me tell you, it's my old classmate Ah Gao, you've met him too, he's now the South China general agent for this electronic notepad. He gave me one to play with at the class reunion today."

"Give it to me?" A-Zu's eyes widened again. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Is there such a good thing? Boss, this is a high-tech product. You definitely don't know how to use it. If you don't know how to use it, it's useless. If it's useless, why not give it to me? I can use it as a phone book, a memo pad, etc."

"I can also give it to you, my second brother." Seeing that A Zu had other ideas, the second brother also had the same idea. He snatched the electronic notebook from A Zu's hand and said, "You are a 24-hour househusband now, so it is useless for you to have this thing. I can use it to keep accounts for Ru Hao Tea Restaurant. In addition to keeping accounts, I can also..."

"You can still use it." A Yao quietly walked behind Er Lao while he wasn't paying attention and took the electronic notebook in his hand, saying, "It's a pity to use it to keep accounts. It's different for me. I have so many work arrangements on a daily basis. I'm a section-level cadre. It's so convenient to use a notebook to keep my entire work schedule."

As he said that, he looked past the second brother and towards the eldest brother Guang, "Big brother, Dad is right, we should make the best use of things, and it is most appropriate for me to use it." The eldest brother Guang took the electronic notebook back and said, "You bunch of bad guys, you see that I have good things and you want to covet them, but I won't give them to anyone. I don't know how to use it, so I will wait until my son grows up and give it to him."

He ignored the second brother, A Yao, and A Zu, and went straight back to the room. The second brother wanted to fight for it, and directly grabbed the eldest brother Guang from behind, "Big brother, wait until your son grows up, you won't need this thing anymore."

What the second brother said was not wrong. When Tianyou grows up, a mobile phone will be enough to travel around the world. However, Kang Qirui did not think that they were right to take the things from the big brother, and said, "Second brother, what you are doing is called Daji's treat."

"What do you mean?" The second brother was uneducated and didn't understand.

"Have you ever watched Investiture of the Gods?" Kang Qirui shook his head and sighed, explaining, "In Investiture of the Gods, King Zhou's wife is a vixen, and her foxy tail shows up when she invites guests."

"Arui is right. All of your fox tails have been exposed." The eldest brother just laughed at them, broke free from the second brother's hand and went straight back to the room.

Er Lao and A Yao didn't really want the electronic notebook. They only became interested in it after seeing A Zu wanted it. After seeing this situation, they naturally gave up. Only A Zu didn't give up. He really wanted the electronic notebook that Da Lao Guang had.

The next day, he saw Da Lao Guang writing something on the dining table in the dining room, and he quickly had an idea. He walked into the dining room and said to Da Lao Guang: "Don't you have a notebook? Why are you writing on paper money?"

"Oh, that notebook, I locked it in the drawer." The boss said casually while writing down his own things.

"Why lock it in the drawer? If you don't need it, just take care of me, your younger brother. You don't need it anyway." A Zu shamelessly asked for it again. "Oh, I just don't know how to use it now, maybe I can learn it in the future." The elder brother put the pen down, looked at A Zu and said, "Even if I can't learn it, I can leave it to Tianyou, and he can teach me when he learns it."

"Wait until Tianyou learns it before teaching you? That thing would have been obsolete long ago." A-Zu stood up and said excitedly, "Let me tell you this, this kind of fashionable high-tech product is updated very quickly. Just like your electronic notepad, it sold for 11 yuan when it was launched in November last year, and now it's only been less than two months and it's dropped to yuan. In a few months, it may not even be worth a few hundred yuan. By next year, I won't want it even if you give it to me."

Then he sat down again, "How about this, give it to me."

"I don't know whether what you said is true or false. Are you trying to blackmail me for my phone?" The boss looked distrustful.

"What do you mean by blackmailing your computer? Feng Shui guys can cheat you for eight or ten years, but I will never cheat you." A-Zu thought for a moment and gave an example: "Do you still remember my classmate Xiongzi? Xiongzi used to have a computer, which his boss brought back from Hong Kong. You still remember how impressive it was at that time? But what about now? It's only been a few years? It's not as good as the five-dollar computer on the carpet."

Da Lao Guang thought about it and felt that what A Zu said made sense, but he still didn't want to give the notebook to A Zu for nothing. So he said, "How about this, three days. If I still can't use it after three days, I will give it to you. Is that okay?" A Zu nodded happily. He concluded that with Da Lao Guang's intelligence and ability to accept new technology, three days would not be enough for him to learn.

The boss stopped writing and went back to his room to take out the electronic notepad from the drawer. He followed the instructions in the manual to learn how to use it, but he couldn't even turn it on. "What's going on? There's no response at all? How can such a high-tech thing be so difficult?" He sighed and suddenly thought of someone who might be able to help him.

He walked out of the room quickly and went to Tianxiu's room. "Xiuzi, why are you doing your winter vacation homework so well?" His target was Tianxiu, who was still in elementary school. Kang Qirui was not at home, and he thought that the others would not teach him if they wanted his notebook. His only savior now was Tianxiu. He took out the electronic notebook and handed it to Tianxiu, "Xiuzi, come and teach your uncle how to use this electronic notebook."

"I don't have time. I have a lot of winter vacation homework." Tianxiu was not in the mood to help him. If he didn't finish his winter vacation homework, he wouldn't be able to go out and play during the New Year. He was busy working now.

"How about this, you help me turn on the computer and then help me write down a few things, and I'll buy you a hamburger and a chicken wing, how about that?" The boss didn't understand electronic notebooks, but he knew Tianxiu.

Tianxiu took a deep breath and was moved. He took the notebook and said, "Okay, then tell me what you want to write down." It must be said that children are really smart. The big brother spent a long time without even turning on the computer, but Tianxiu turned it on as soon as he got his hands on it.

"Then remember this. The first thing is that the tea restaurant warehouse is out of sugar and oil. Remember to remind me to ask your father to restock. Then remind me to buy milk powder. Tianyou milk powder is almost finished. The third thing is to buy a bottle of vanishing cream for your aunt." The big boss said one thing after another, and Tianxiu typed them one by one.

Tian Xiu basically finished writing as soon as Da Lao Guang finished speaking. He returned the notebook to Da Lao Guang and said, "Okay, remember, one hamburger and one chicken wing."

"Okay, I'll buy it for you now." Da Laoguang smiled and walked out of Tianxiu's room.

Another day passed quickly. On the 17th, early in the morning, Da Lao Guang knocked on Tian Xiu's door. Tian Xiu opened the door sleepily and said speechlessly, "Uncle, what's the matter?"

"Please help me see what I should do today." Da Laoguang handed the notebook to Tianxiu.

That's it? Tianxiu, whose sleep was disturbed, got angry and said angrily: "I helped you input it yesterday, and today I have to help you retrieve it again. You might as well tell my dad and mom that I should stop studying and be your personal secretary."
