Chapter 9 Which summer job earns $1,500 a day?
On the night after the high school entrance examination, Li Luo sat on a chair in the study room of Ying Chanxi's home, turned on her computer, looked at the screen, and watched with gusto.
He skillfully entered his QQ account number and logged into the QQ he used twenty years ago.
At this time, there are only classmates from elementary school and junior high school in the friend list above.
It is foreseeable that it may be difficult to see each other again in this life among high school and college classmates from previous lives.
At least it is unlikely to appear in your friends list again.
After the high school entrance examination, his life has taken a completely different direction from his previous life.
Sighing slightly, Li Luo opened Baidu and searched a lot of well-known websites.
At this time, it can be said that the Internet is gradually entering the mobile era from the PC side.
In terms of film and television, Tencent Video, iQiyi, and Youku Tudou are still competing with each other to compete for the market.
Live broadcast platforms have also sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and Douyu, Huya, etc. have all shown their prowess during this period.
Offline, three food delivery platforms compete with each other. Meituan, Ele.me, and Baidu Takeaway are competing for food.
Didi and Kuaidi are also competing fiercely in the taxi-hailing field.
In the competition on the mobile Internet, everything has not yet been settled as it was in later generations.
But for these things, even Li Luo, who has returned from rebirth, can only watch the show from the sidelines.
Whether it is 35-year-old Li Luo or 15-year-old Li Luo, they are just ordinary people.
I have no capital, no connections, and no extraordinary abilities.
Although the memory palace has good abilities, it is limited by brain power and energy, so it is not omnipotent.
So after flipping through the familiar names on the web page with some excitement, Li Luo's heart gradually cooled down and returned to a calm state.
Although behind the dazzling array of names above, there are countless amounts of money and wealth.
But these things, whether before or after rebirth, most likely have nothing to do with him.
Taking out his pockets, he only had more than thirty yuan of pocket money. Counting his status as a minor, he couldn’t even buy stocks...
After thinking about this clearly, Li Luo sighed. , giving up those grand plans that have been circling in my mind since rebirth.
I really read too many rebirth articles in my last life. I worked hard as a worker and followed the trend to find ways to persuade my parents to buy a house. It was much more reliable than anything else!
Other than that, I can only think of ways to make some money and give it a try.
After all, in these days, almost every industry needs some upfront investment to achieve success.
To truly be able to enter the industry at zero cost and with no threshold, and still make money, there are really not many ways except working honestly.
Thinking of this, Li Luo reopened Baidu and searched two websites.
One Bizhan and one Qidian Chinese website.
It’s a pity that Douyin is still very early to go online, otherwise Li Luo would still be more inclined to find it.
He has no more ideas now. He just hopes that his family can have enough food and clothing, and then live a happy high school life.
As for the serious matter of making money, let’s wait until we go to college.
......
"What are you looking at?" At around nine o'clock in the evening, Ying Chanxi's voice suddenly appeared behind Li Luo.
Her head poked out from Li Luo's right shoulder, and her long hair that fell down rubbed Li Luo's face, slipped from his shoulder, and fell to his chest.
"Why did you start reading novels?"
"Oh...just take a look." Li Luo sniffed the light fragrance of hair around him, glanced at Ying Chanxi, and saw that she had already worn Putting on the panda pajamas, it was obvious that she had already taken a bath.
Then he came back to his senses and continued to browse the novel website logged in on the computer web page, briefly browsing the rankings above.
I want to seal the sky, Perfect World, The Wilderness, Douluo 2...all of them are quite ancient stuff.
Li Luo was in a daze while reading. He never thought that one day he would be able to go back to the time when these books were still being serialized.
"You stopped playing games today and read novels instead?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously.
"Do you read it?"
"I don't read it." Ying Chanxi shook his head, "I still have to preview the contents of the first year of high school, and I don't have time to read leisure books."
< br>"You are too curly..."
"What is too curly?"
"Well... I just mean to praise your efforts."
Ying Zen Xi didn't think much about it. He leaned closer to the computer and took a look at the time, and then said: "You can play until ten o'clock at most, and then you have to go back."
"I understand."
"Then I'm going to bed first."
"Okay, let's go."
"Then...good night?" Ying Chanxi blinked and looked at the computer screen without looking at Li Luo's face, saying this with a cautious questioning tone.
"Well, good night."
Hearing Li Luo's response, Ying Chanxi pursed his lips slightly, then turned around and walked out of the study, stepping on his slippers and returning to himself In the bedroom.
Folding the small blanket that Li Luo gave her personally as a child into a rectangular shape and covering it on her own pillow, Ying Chanxi lay on the bed, smelled the smell on it, and soon fell asleep peacefully.
Li Luo, who was checking the website in the study, watched the time come to ten o'clock in the evening. He also shut down the computer on time and went back to the opposite door to sleep.
……
The next day, it was about three o’clock in the morning.
When it was still dark, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong got up on time and got up in the dark.
The two washed up gently to avoid waking their son, and prepared to go out to the breakfast shop to make preparations.
But at this moment, Li Luo's bedroom door was opened.
Li Luo, who had already changed his clothes, walked out and squeezed into the bathroom with ease. From the gap between the two of them, he touched his toothbrush cup: "Give me a step, I'll brush my teeth too."
"What do you want to do?" Lin Xiuhong looked at her son in surprise, "You don't sleep at three o'clock in the middle of the night. Where are you going to fool around so early?"
"Go and fight. Summer job." Li Luo soaked some water, put toothpaste on it, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely.
Li Guohong raised his eyebrows: "Why did you suddenly think of taking a summer job? It's not like your mother doesn't give you pocket money."
"What kind of summer job are you doing?" Lin Xiuhong also said, "Go to bed first. I'll give you a thousand yuan of pocket money during the summer vacation. Just don't spend it randomly."
"I'm already up, so I can't sleep." Li Luo finished rinsing his mouth and washed his hands. After wiping his face with cold water, he followed his parents out of the house, "Let's go, let's go!"
Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong walked out of the house in confusion, watching Li Luo follow them all the way. Go to the breakfast shop they ordered across from the community.
Then Li Luo put on an apron, and together with them, tidied up the tables in the store and began to prepare the morning meals for the breakfast restaurant. The couple looked at their son who was working seriously in the store, and they looked a little dazed for a moment.
The key point is that this guy is really not doing any harm.
Not to mention things like washing and preparing vegetables, even steamed buns and steamed buns can be learned once.
The three of them prepared these ingredients together. The process that should have been almost ready at 5:30 in the morning was completed before 5:00 after Li Luo joined.
Just wait for the guests to come to your door.
"Okay, okay, we're all done." Lin Xiuhong pulled Li Luo to a chair and sat down, "Have a rest for a while, and then go home and catch up on some sleep."
"I'm done again. "I'm not sleepy." Li Luo looked at his mother with a strange look on his face, "I'll just go back and take a nap after lunch."
"You're really not sleepy?"
"I'm really not sleepy!" Li Luo said with a smile. Then he saw an uncle walking into the store and immediately stood up to greet him, "What would you like, uncle? We still have to wait for steamed buns and fried dumplings. Everything else is already available." ."
"Can I have some fried noodles?"
"Yes."
"Add an egg, not spicy."
"Okay." Li Luo responded and shouted into the kitchen, "Dad! Add an egg to the fried noodles! Don't add spicy food!"
The uncle sat down on the chair, looked at Li Luo, and then She looked at Lin Xiuhong and asked with a smile: "Is this your son?"
"Yes, yes." Lin Xiuhong responded with a smile, "I just finished my high school entrance examination. I don't know what I thought. I can't stay idle at home. I just came here to help.”
“You are so sensible,” the uncle said with praise, “Your family is a good tutor. That girl in my family... tsk tsk... has a headache. It would be nice to have a boy like yours who is so sensible."
"Well...he is just like that." Lin Xiuhong said modestly and politely, "He used to be very naughty." , I was naughty when I was a kid." The uncle shook his head and laughed, and then asked, "Does the boss have some soy milk? I want it to be hot."
"Yes, I will get it for you." With a sound, he turned around to get the soy milk.
As a result, Li Luo over there had already scooped up a bowl of hot sweet soy milk and handed it directly to Lin Xiuhong's hand.
Lin Xiuhong reached out to take it and looked down at the bowl of soy milk in front of her. She was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and hurriedly served it to the guest.
Li Luo's breakfast shop has been in business for more than ten years and its business is very good now.
Especially people from the two or three surrounding communities usually look for their breakfast shop.
Starting from less than six o'clock in the morning and lasting until about nine-thirty, there was an endless stream of customers in the store.
If there are only two people together, Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong are often too busy to work.
But today is very different from usual.
After Li Luo joined, although it is still very busy, the rhythm of the entire operation is orderly.
Li Luo, a young man, was busy and was responsible for listening to the guests' orders and then calling his parents to prepare the meals.
With the memory palace, no matter how many guests come, Li Luo will not forget anything, and he can serve the meal accurately every time, without any signs of rush.
This made Lin Xiuhong, who was responsible for accounting and collection, as well as making steamed buns, fried dumplings and fried dough sticks, suddenly feel much more relaxed.
In addition, many of the people who came to the store were old customers. When they saw an extra figure in the store, they couldn't help but ask questions.
After knowing that he was Lin Xiuhong’s son, he smiled and praised him a few times.
As a result, Lin Xiuhong didn't feel tired at all, but was smiling all morning.
After nine o'clock, there were not so many customers in the store, so I felt a little more relaxed.
It is said to be a breakfast shop, but in fact it is open all day long.
It’s just that the busiest hours are in the morning. After noon, there are basically no customers.
In the afternoon, I tidy up the store, and after receiving a small wave of customers at five or six in the evening, I can close the stall and leave.
After finishing his morning work, Li Luo stretched his limbs at the door of the store.
Although I am quite tired, I don’t have the fatigue that comes from the depths of my soul after I turn thirty.
My waist is not sore, my neck is not hurting, and I still have plenty of energy.
As expected of a 15-year-old young body!
Li Luo felt the sweat falling from his forehead with a satisfied look on his face, and felt that everything was beautiful.
At this time, Li Guohong was cleaning up the kitchen when he heard a low sobbing sound behind him.
When I turned around, I found Lin Xiuhong hiding in the corner, secretly wiping tears.
"Hey, why are you crying?" Li Guohong stepped forward, held his wife's shoulders, and handed her a tissue.
"It's okay... I'm just happy..." Lin Xiuhong cried with a smile, wiped her tears, choked twice more, patted her chest and said to Li Guohong, "Do you think Li Luo has grown up? It feels like that. It seems that he suddenly became sensible? I am so happy today. You don’t know how many people praised him all morning.”
“This is a good thing.” Li Guohong also smiled and hugged him. Lin Xiuhong, "Li Luo is sensible now. Let's just be happy. Boys, as I said before, will always become sensible."
"Yes, you are right." Lin Xiuhong raised her eyebrows. With tears in her eyes and a very happy smile, she then walked to the counter, took out a wad of red banknotes and started counting the money.
"What's wrong?"
"Give him pocket money for the summer vacation." Lin Xiuhong said while counting, and then took out ten Mao Zedong cards from it.
But the movement of her hand paused, and she took out five more cards, a total of 1,500 yuan, and clenched her palms.
After wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Lin Xiuhong took a deep breath, adjusted herself, walked out of the kitchen and walked to Li Luo.
She looked up at her son, who was already 1.75 meters tall, and recalled in her mind the rebellious appearance of this boy in the past few years.
Then the memory played back to the past few days, leaving Lin Xiuhong in a trance.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Li Luo looked at Lin Xiuhong strangely, raised his hand and waved in front of her, "Are you tired?"
"No, I'm not tired. " Lin Xiuhong shook her head and came to her senses, then reached out to grab Li Luo's hand and stuffed fifteen red bills into his palm, "Take it, let's have fun during the summer vacation, but when we get to high school, we can't. You have to work hard."
Li Luo lowered his head, looked at the money in his hand, blinked, and then took a deep breath.
I vaguely remember this summer vacation in my previous life, because I went to play basketball the day before the exam and quarreled with my parents.
I didn’t do well in the high school entrance examination either.
I don’t even have the last penny of pocket money.
And now the high school entrance examination results haven't come out yet... He was just doing normal things like a normal student, stopping by to help out in the store...
But he was stuffed with 1,500. pieces of pocket money.
When he first went to college, his monthly living expenses probably amounted to this much.
Li Luo's heart was full of emotions, but he said: "Mom, is your summer job here so profitable? Can I come back tomorrow? I can work for 1,500 a day until I retire."< br>
“...” Lin Xiuhong stared at the thing that couldn’t spit out ivory from the dog’s mouth. She was so moved that she was instantly retracted, “Get out of here!”
