Xu Zhe: "Yes, but I need the latest model to make games. Of course, the old one is still useful and can be used as a test machine."

Tang Lingfei sighed in a melancholy manner: "You really know how to spend money. I'm still using the Xiaolingtong you gave me, and you changed your mobile phone again..."

Hearing this, Xu Zhe frowned slightly: "That thing is used for transition, you are still using it? No, the frequency band of Xiaolingtong will be given to 3G, haven't you heard about this news?"

Tang Lingfei shook her head blankly.

Song Xingye: "We normal junior high school students don't pay attention to social news like you do."

Xu Zhe thought about it and said, "How about this? I'll give you my Pingguo 3GS, but there's one condition. You have to be my game tester for free and help me play new games."

Tang Lingfei's eyes lit up frighteningly: "Okay, okay!"

Song Xingye looked down at her toes and couldn't help but recall the time not long ago when she was teased by her classmates in the classroom, with some people shouting "give out wedding candy" and the like... The girl secretly warned herself not to get carried away by other people's thoughts. She still had a lot of little moves to make.

160. Chapter 160 159 Essential Skills for Programmers

160.

2023-09-20

On the second day of summer vacation, in the community downstairs from his home, Xu Zhe saw Shen Lan after four months of absence...

And her new glasses.

It was a pair of retro round glasses with a thin silver frame. If you looked at her from a distance, you might even think she wasn't wearing glasses.

But when you get closer and take a closer look, it becomes obvious. The girl's originally slightly heroic face becomes softer and more feminine after she puts on the glasses.

"Boss, I came here as soon as I got home and put down my luggage. How motivated are you?" Shen Lan said as she approached him.

Xu Zhe clapped his hands twice: "Great, I've been waiting for you to arrive."

Shen Lan: "Why come to your house instead of your office?"

"There are no computers in the office, but I have a desktop at home. I'll use the desktop while we work, and you can use my laptop. Let's go, I can't wait to get started."

As he said this, Xu Zhe rubbed his hands, almost writing the words "I want to work" on his face.

Shen Lan thought of something and asked hesitantly, "Is there anyone else in your family?"

Xu Zhe: "My parents are both at work, there won't be anyone else except the two of us."

"That's good."

Shen Lan nodded, then followed Xu Zhe upstairs and into his home.

This was the first time she actually stepped into Xu Zhe's home.

The interior decoration of this house was very ordinary, but the girl couldn't help looking around, and the tension and excitement in her chest could not be suppressed. However, on the surface, she still maintained a seemingly calm expression.

"I'm here to work, I'm here to work..." Shen Lan reminded herself secretly to prevent her thoughts from wandering too far.

She had imagined today many times. But now she knew that the most important thing was to keep up with Xu Zhe's pace so that they could get along well in the name of work in the future.

Xu Zhe took her into the study. Two computers had already been prepared on the table in the study. The laptop was placed next to the desktop computer, and two stools were placed side by side.

"I just bought a new wireless router, so this laptop doesn't need to be plugged into an Ethernet cable." Xu Zhe said, pointing to a small thing on the edge of the table.

"That's quite convenient..." Shen Lan pointed at the notebook, "Should I use it?"

Xu Zhe sat in front of the desktop computer and said, "Yes, please sit down."

Shen Lan sat down next to him, took a deep breath, and then looked at the laptop and pressed the power button.

After turning on the computer, Xu Zhe pointed to the laptop screen and said, "I have completed all the necessary settings and assigned the work packages. Look here."

Shen Lan nodded, pulled herself together and started to work. Xu Zhe also started his work.

For a moment, the study became extremely quiet. Apart from the sound of the computer running, there was only the occasional sound of keyboard tapping.

After a long while, Shen Lan finally spoke to break the silence: "Why do I feel... it's easier than I thought?"

Xu Zhe: "As long as you determine the direction, there won't be any difficulty."

Shen Lan shook her head slightly: "No, the tasks you assigned to me are all very basic. For example, for this numerical configuration, I just need to fill it in according to the formula you set. Even people who can't program can do it."

Xu Zhe smiled and asked, "Do you want to do something more challenging?"

Shen Lan hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to try."

Xu Zhe stood up and pointed at the desktop screen and said, "Then try this. Can you understand what I am doing now?"

From childhood to adulthood, when has anyone ever said to Shen Lan, "Can you understand this?" The unconvinced girl moved to the desktop and observed carefully.

However, after a few minutes, she could only say helplessly: "I can understand what it is doing, but the question is...what is the principle behind it?"

Xu Zhe: "It's great that you can understand what it does. As for the principle, I'll find the instructions for you."

Shen Lan originally thought that he would look up the comments he wrote and explain it, but he opened the browser, went to GitHub, and found a description page.

Xu Zhe: “That’s it.”

Shen Lan murmured, "You didn't write it yourself?"

Xu Zhe: "Why write something yourself when you can find it online? Let me emphasize again that the essential skills for programmers are to make good use of the Internet and copy and paste."

Shen Lan: "..."

Xu Zhe looked at the girl's profile and said jokingly, "I see you seem to have a lot of objections?"

Shen Lan turned her little face and stared at him and said, "I still think that you should understand the principle thoroughly and write it down yourself, only then can you truly master it."

Xu Zhe: "Well, this is the way of a good student, but it is not the working method of a programmer. If you really insist on understanding everything you use, your game will not be online when other people's games are shut down. The efficient working method is to just make it work."

"As long as it works..." Shen Lan looked at the computer screen again, speechless for a moment.

Xu Zhe: "Come on, give me a seat, I need to continue working."

----

The whole afternoon passed.

In the evening, Xu Zhe packed up the results of his work for the day and sent them to his notebook as a backup.

Shen Lan looked at his work results and suddenly said with emotion: "You are so efficient..."

Xu Zhe walked out of the study and brought in two glasses of water. He handed one to Shen Lan and drank the other.

Then he said, "I can't be inefficient. I'm in a hurry. I hope to finish it this summer."

Shen Lan: "Based on the speed you're going at today, I think you should be able to make the game before school starts. I've seen your entire design framework, and it doesn't seem to be particularly complicated."

Xu Zhe shook his head slightly: "It's not complicated, but you must always reserve enough time to run tests and fix bugs."

Shen Lan thought for a moment and said, "I can help out this summer, so regarding the salary..."

Xu Zhe: "How much do you think is a good salary for you during the probation period?"

His current labor costs are very low, after all, he pays the outsourced workers piecework. As for Song Huaifeng, although his probation period has passed, his current official salary is only 1,200 yuan, and he also takes care of all kinds of miscellaneous work in the company and the office. Considering that Shen Lan can help more limitedly now, the reasonable remuneration should certainly not be higher than Uncle Song Huaifeng.

Of course, for Xu Zhe, even if she asked for more, he felt that he would agree. Just think of it as a sign of optimistic about her future and investment in talent...

However, Shen Lan said openly: "I don't take any salary. The tasks you give me are the simplest. If I can't help with the really difficult ones, then I shouldn't take any money."

Xu Zhe was slightly startled: "But at least you worked hard."

"I don't think this kind of labor is worth your salary. However, if you must be paid...can you cook a few meals for me?"

Having said this, Shen Lan licked her lips, seeming to be a little greedy.

Xu Zhe said readily: "No problem, I'll take care of both lunch and dinner."

Shen Lan: "Then I'll be responsible for washing the dishes."

"Okay, now is the perfect time..."

Xu Zhe turned and walked out of the study, came to the refrigerator in the kitchen, took out several ingredients from it, and prepared to start.

Shen Lan stood with her hands behind her back, staring curiously.

But at this moment, the door opened.

The one who returned home at this time was Zeng Jing.

"Xiaozhe, are you cooking today? That's good... eh?"

Zeng Jing was talking halfway when she looked towards the kitchen and saw someone other than her son.

The short-haired girl smiled at her and said, "Hello, Auntie. I'm Shen Lan. I've met you before."

"I know. I saw it in the hospital."

When saying this, Zeng Jing restrained his expression, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Shen Lan had a smile on her face, and her politeness and attitude were impeccable.

Xu Zhe in the kitchen did not notice the interaction between the two women, one big and one small. He just asked loudly while busying himself: "Mom, why hasn't Dad come back tonight?"

Zeng Jing: "Your father has a social event tonight, so don't worry about his meal."

Xu Zhe: "Okay, then I'll just make three servings."

Three servings, that means...

Zeng Jing's eyes returned to the short-haired girl in front of her. In her opinion, although this girl was pretty, she looked a bit difficult to deal with and had a strong personality. Moreover, her family ran a billiard hall, and she was a single-parent family, and her father wore leather jackets and rode a motorcycle. These factors combined made Zeng Jing want to stay away from her.

However, this girl showed up at her home today, and she was alone with her son...

This forces mothers to be vigilant.

I’ll make up for the update I missed yesterday.

By the way, I found a great way to help me fall asleep. Just open the document, repeatedly tell yourself that you still have work to do, and then say "I'll just take a break..."

Then you can sleep till tomorrow morning!

Zeng Jing's current state of mind is very delicate.

Ever since her son turned into a top student and showed all kinds of extraordinary qualities, she began to feel that any girl who married her son would be taken advantage of. Just like a father with a daughter doesn't want to see a wild boy who came from nowhere kidnap his daughter, a mother naturally has a similar mentality.

What's more, she gave her son a perfect score of 100, while other girls in her eyes could never reach that score, at most or . Shen Lan might be particularly attractive in the eyes of little boys, but this kind of charm is of no use to elders of the same sex. What Zeng Jing noticed, in addition to her unusual growth environment, was that this girl seemed to be particularly opinionated - for a mother, this was not a good thing.

Besides, Shen Lan is two years older than his son. Compared with her, both Tang Lingfei and Song Xingye are obviously better candidates for future daughter-in-law. Song Xingye's score is higher, but Tang Lingfei has the added bonus of a familiar family, and a girl who has grown up with him is more reassuring.

Three people with different thoughts sat at the same dining table, which was filled with freshly cooked meals.

The dishes cooked by Xu Zhe are still as delicious as ever, as if he inherited his father’s culinary talent.

A dish of beef slices with bamboo shoots, a dish of tofu with green onions, and the simplest dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes are all ordinary ingredients, but they taste so delicious.

This was what happened to Shen Lan when she took her first bite. She showed surprise on her face and said as soon as she swallowed it, "I'm not exaggerating at all. Your cooking skills are amazing!"

Xu Zhe smiled and said, "That's good."

But as Shen Lan ate, she frowned slightly, and the frequency of picking up food with chopsticks also slowed down a bit.

Xu Zhe noticed this detail and asked, "Is there any problem?"

Shen Lan: "No problem, it's just..."

Xu Zhe: "Don't be embarrassed, just say it directly."

Shen Lan suddenly glanced at the aunt next to her and shook her head.

But Xu Zhe remembered that when they ate together in the past, Shen Lan would always ask for spicy food, no matter whether they ordered noodles or cold noodles. But the food she made today was not spicy at all, which might be too light for someone who loves spicy food.

So he asked, "Do you think it's not spicy enough?"
