Traveling through 1980 to become a top student

Chapter 64

Lin Jinglan actually guessed a rough idea. Zhou Hui had been working in a clothing store for a while, and probably got his first income.But Lin Jinglan looked at Zhou Hui's happy and mysterious face, pretended to be confused, and asked, "What's wrong? What is the happy event?"

Zhou Hui said with a smile, "Before, there were all happy events for you, my daughter, one after another. This time, I am not far behind as a mother. Although it is not a big happy event...it is a good thing!"

Zhou Hui asked with a smile, "Guess how much I earned this month?"

"Fifty?" Lin Jinglan guessed slightly, but it was still quite a lot. After all, the workers in the factory only earn about thirty yuan a month after hard work.

Zhou Hui shook his head, "Not only."

Lin Jinglan added a little more, "Seventy?"

Zhou Hui still shook his head, jokingly said, "In your heart, is your mother so capable?"

Lin Jinglan was a little surprised, "Could it be 100 yuan?"

Zhou Hui finally gave up, "What one hundred? I earned 210 eight yuan!"

Lin Jinglan was taken aback, the look of surprise on her face came from her heart, "So much! Mom, you are really amazing!" But Lin Jinglan also expressed her doubts, "But can everyone in your store earn so much? Yang How does Gui get paid?"

Zhou Hui said proudly, "Of course not! How can everyone earn so much? I earn more because..."

While adding food and vegetables for Lin Jinglan, Zhou Hui explained to Lin Jinglan how she earned so much money.It was only then that Lin Jinglan found out that there was no basic salary in Yang Gui's shop every month!Everyone earns money from the commission of selling clothes, and the more you sell, the more you get.Lin Jinglan was very surprised, Zhou Hui was obviously not a good talker, how could he earn so much commission?
After listening to Lin Jinglan for a while, she realized that although Zhou Hui is not a person with a bright tongue, she is very good at matching clothes. The clothes she matched with the models in the store can be sold quickly, helping customers choose The clothes are also very suitable for customers.So in the past month, Zhou Hui turned out to be the one who sold the most clothes in the store.

Lin Jinglan looked at Zhou Hui, who kept talking about her experience and her face was full of confidence, and she was no less happy than Zhou Hui.She still remembered Zhou Hui from before, who lived in a small town, looked at Lin Shan's face in awe, even endured the beating silently.

But now Zhou Hui, the spirit of the whole person is different, and she dresses up beautifully every day. If Lin Jinglan hadn't met Zhou Hui back then, she would never have imagined that Zhou Hui back then and now Zhou Hui turned out to be the same person.

Although Lin Jinglan didn't ask Zhou Hui, she knew in her heart that if Lin Shan came to find Zhou Hui again now, and asked Zhou Hui to go back to the days of serving others and being beaten and scolded, she would definitely not want to.

Thinking that Zhou Hui also had her share of credit for the change, Lin Jinglan became more and more happy.

After Lin Jinglan submitted a paper to SCI, she conveniently used a bit of content that was not used in that paper, which was the improvement of the experimental device, wrote a small paper, and submitted it to a domestic journal.

Now there is no news from SCI, but the acceptance notice for this small paper has been sent.

Although it was expected that she was hired, Lin Jinglan still felt quite pleasantly surprised, probably because this small paper was just written by her without spending a lot of effort.

Although this approach is not considered opportunistic, it can be regarded as a trick.This also stems from Lin Jinglan's habit when she was a PhD student in her previous life. After all, the competition was fierce back then, and the only thing that could quantify the achievements of scientific researchers were papers, so everyone desperately published papers.Because no matter how good the work is, if no papers are published, it will not be recognized by the academic community.

The remittance slip for the manuscript fee was sent along with the acceptance notice. After Lin Jinglan took out the manuscript fee, she held a thin stack of ten yuan notes, remembering that the whole dormitory had dinner together on the first day of school. At that time, she was also very embarrassed.Now that receiving the manuscript fee is considered a happy event, Lin Jinglan thought, why not treat her roommate to dinner?It can be regarded as an apology for not going last time, Lin Jinglan walked towards the dormitory while thinking.

There were no classes scheduled in the department on Friday afternoon. When Lin Jinglan opened the door and walked into the dormitory, everyone was there. Lin Jinglan smiled and said, "I was worried that you would not be here. I didn't expect that there were so many people. Are you free tonight? I just got some manuscript fees." , shall I treat our dormitory to dinner?"

Everyone in the dormitory was stunned for a moment, and Kuang Yuxuan was the first to react, and said with a smile, "Okay, I can do it at night." Immediately afterwards, other people in the dormitory expressed that they were free at night.

Lin Jinglan said with a smile, "That's settled. I'll invite everyone to dinner tonight! You can discuss what you want to eat."

The girls in the dormitory declined politely, then agreed, and began to discuss what to eat.

Kuang Yuxuan pursed her lips at Lin Jinglan and said, "The manuscript fee isn't much, is it? If you treat the whole dormitory to a meal, you have to add some money yourself?"

Lin Jinglan replied, "No, although the manuscript fee is not much, one meal is still rich."

Kuang Yuxuan's eyes flicked across Lin Jinglan's face, "Really? I've also published a little stuff, both poetry and novels, and the royalties are not much. Could it be that you published a novel?"

Lin Jinglan smiled and praised, "Wow, you are amazing!" Although Kuang Yuxuan had a humble expression on her face, there was a flash of pride in her eyes.Lin Jinglan waved her hand, "How can I write novels? What I publish is papers."

Kuang Yuxuan was taken aback, "Thesis? What thesis?"

Lin Jinglan replied, "It's just a short paper, not long."

Kuang Yuxuan looked curious, and raised her voice twice, "You can actually publish academic papers! Jing Lan, you are really amazing! Can you show us?"

The girls in the dormitory who were discussing what to have for dinner gathered around when they heard Kuang Yuxuan's words, "Academic papers? I thought you have to be a senior to publish a paper! You have to be a very good person. Lin Jinglan, you actually published a paper?"

"Yes, yes, we just entered college and haven't learned anything yet. We only know what we learned in high school. Can we still publish papers?"

Surrounded by Lin Jinglan, she was very embarrassed, so she could only be modest, and at the same time, she did not forget to answer Kuang Yuxuan's question just now, "There is no sample issue yet, and the paper has not yet been published. It may be published in the next issue or the next issue. Now it is just I have received the manuscript fee. If you want to read it, I will get it for you when the sample issue arrives."

The girls responded one after another, "Okay, okay!" "You must bring it later!" Only Kuang Yuxuan remained silent, with the look on her face that was exactly as she expected, but soon returned to normal.

Lin Jinglan happened to see Kuang Yuxuan's expression, and felt strange in her heart, but quickly forgot about it.

Finally, everyone decided to eat skewers, and Bai Ping said happily, "I know where you don't need a meal ticket! Let's go, I'll take you there!"

After turning around and walking into a small shop, Lin Jinglan suddenly remembered the scene when her classmates in the dormitory ate skewers together when she was repeating high school.The same are all skewers, and they are also small shops that do not charge meal tickets.

Everyone sat around the table, and Kuang Yuxuan took out a tissue from her schoolbag, wiped the stool carefully, and then sat down slowly.Looking at Kuang Yuxuan's graceful movements, Lin Jinglan probably guessed in her heart that her family background must be good, and she must have been pampered since she was a child.

As soon as everyone came up, they ordered a lot of things in one go, and ordered a bunch of beef, mutton, and chicken skewers.Bai Ping said, "Did I order a little too much? It's all meat skewers, and it's not cheap."

Lin Jinglan said with a smile, "Not too many, there are so many of us. My manuscript fee is enough, and everyone is free to eat, so don't save me money."

When Kuang Yuxuan heard this, she gave Lin Jinglan a half-smile.Lin Jinglan looked at Kuang Yuxuan with puzzled eyes, not understanding what Kuang Yuxuan meant.Kuang Yuxuan lowered her eyes and said softly, "Since you said so, we won't be polite to you. Boss, add [-] skewers each for lamb skewers and beef skewers. Do you have any drinks here?"

The boss said with a smile, "Yes! I have a lot of good things here, and drinks are nothing."

Kuang Yuxuan said with a smile, "Then boss, just watch, let's have some more drinks."

Bai Ping lightly touched Kuang Yuxuan's arm, "Let's forget about the drink. That's a rare item. If the boss can get the drink, it must be very expensive. Let's not ask for it."

Kuang Yuxuan looked at Lin Jinglan with a smile, "How about a drink?"

Lin Jinglan hurriedly said, "Don't, I want to go! I told you to order whatever you want, and one meal won't eat up my manuscript fee." But even if Lin Jinglan was a little slow, now she realized that something was wrong with Kuang Yuxuan, why did she feel like she was hostile to her?Moreover, on Kuang Yuxuan's face, "I'll just quietly watch you pretend to be aggressive", Lin Jinglan really didn't understand what it meant.

She and Kuang Yuxuan had actually only met a few times, and she really couldn't think of where she would offend Kuang Yuxuan.Can't figure it out, Lin Jinglan simply ignores it.

The meal was full of enthusiasm, and Lin Jinglan felt that her relationship with her roommate had become much closer unconsciously, and she decided in her heart that she could spend more time with her roommate in the future, eat, drink and relax together, and she was also very happy.

Everyone opened their mouths to eat. In the end, there were still more than [-] skewers left, and everyone couldn't eat any more.Bai Ping hesitated, "Pack it up and take it back to the dormitory? There are still so many... What a waste?"

Just as Lin Jinglan was about to say take it home and eat, she heard Kuang Yuxuan say, "Don't lose that person! Besides Jinglan's treats, people don't feel sorry for them, why do you feel sorry for?"

Lin Jinglan was taken aback when she heard the words, and then thought that people at this time probably didn't have the concept of packing. She remembered that until the [-]s, the guests were still embarrassed to pack after eating in the restaurant, feeling shabby and shameful. Other guests and waiters Seeing those who are packed, they often cast strange glances.However, Kuang Yuxuan's tone of voice to Bai Ping was a bit harsh. Lin Jinglan saw that Bai Ping's face was flushed, and she stood there bewildered.

Lin Jinglan quickly smoothed things over, considering the characteristics of the times, she said, "Don't pack it up, it won't taste good when it's cold." After Lin Jinglan paid the bill, the group walked back, and Lin Jinglan deliberately found a topic to resolve the embarrassment just now.

Lin Jinglan separated from her roommate at the school gate and walked towards the laboratory.Bai Ping looked at Lin Jinglan's back and said in a low voice, "No wonder she was able to publish the paper early, she almost planted her roots in the laboratory."

Kuang Yuxuan sneered, "You believe what she says? You are really easy to deceive."

Bai Ping's eyes widened, she looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"

The corner of Kuang Yuxuan's lips curled up, "It's not good to talk about other people's right and wrong outside, let's talk about it when we go back to the dormitory."
