Chapter 655 Knowledge changes destiny 6
After getting off the train, I arrived at the provincial capital city more than a thousand kilometers away. I only had 2,500 yuan with me, a bag of worthless clothes, and a second-hand, almost obsolete mobile phone.
Speaking of mobile phones... Xining used his ID card to get a new mobile phone number and replaced the old mobile phone sim card inside.
I can finally turn on my phone with confidence, and from now on, Zhao Yuanchun can finally continue to live.
The first thing is to find a job.
I downloaded a job search APP, specifically looking for the kind that can be interviewed directly.
After choosing a few, go to a small shop near the school to make copies of various certificates. Experience has proven that photocopying in small shops near schools is the cheapest. After visiting two universities, I found a shop that charges more than 100 copies for a dime a piece.
I also borrowed the computer in the store to type up a resume.
Seeing her typing her resume in English with her fingers flying, the shop owner couldn't help but take a second look. Bind the resumes well. Due to the number of pages, each resume should be controlled to less than 5 pages, so there will be twenty copies in total.
When collecting the money, the total printing and copying fee was 12 yuan, which was 10 yuan for the copying fee of 100 pages.
Who says that knowledge cannot change destiny? From ancient times to the present, only reading is the only way to be good. A person with literacy and knowledge will be respected by people wherever he goes.
With my resume still warm from the copy machine, I started to visit every company.
The master of the body was originally very good at reading, with CET-6 in English, which he had accumulated from previous tasks. Xining spoke in standard Z-country speaking, as if he was born and raised there. Although his bachelor's degree in economics is a bit low, he could pick up any English financial statement and see the problem at a glance.
Every executive and boss, as long as they were from country Z, would look at her as if they had found a treasure within ten minutes.
The first one asked for 5,000. That's right. All you want is a small manager. She's a talented person, so she's more than this price. Bye bye.
The price of the second one is 6,000. Well...can you add more? Then I'll think about it.
The reason for the third one is 7,000, and it’s very simple. After all, I just graduated from college, and I will definitely add more after trying it out... Okay, it’s up to you!
Half a day later, Xining became the assistant to the regional general manager of a multinational company. He is said to be an assistant, but in fact he gives his name first. In fact, he discovers problems in the company's operations and reports them, and helps write English reports for the regional general manager to report to the headquarters. If you become a regular employee, you will be the Operations Director.
When I walk out of this 4A-class office building, I feel happy inside. Seven thousand yuan, when have you ever made seven thousand yuan? No wonder I can't restrain my excitement.
Come on, my sister has a net worth of hundreds of millions and a daily salary of one thousand dollars. She is successful like this on seven thousand dollars. What kind of future is she? Did she graduate from a university? Experience really limited his vision, and Xi Ning despised it.
After finding a job, it’s time to find a house. Xining browsed online and found that they were all occupied by intermediary companies. There were only a few owned by the landlords themselves, and the prices were about the same.
So Xining turned off her mobile phone and went directly to the agency. The request was very simple: rent for three months, the cheaper the better.
If you stay in a hotel, even the cheapest hotel, 2,500 yuan is not enough to cover your salary until next month. Just find a house to live in!
Passing by a restaurant, there was a sign on the door recruiting waiters, with food and lodging included, and interested parties could go in for an interview.
Xining couldn't help but stop for a moment, but soon he stopped moving and walked forward without looking back. The body owner must be thinking about working as a part-time worker for four hours, with food and accommodation included, saving money on rent and making money at the same time.
No, don’t do it, I won’t do it! Only if you have done your job with a monthly salary of 7,000 yuan is the right path. Working a second job, do you think you are an iron man or a superman? And what if I work overtime and have a part-time job? Nothing can be said about picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons.
For three-month short-term rentals, the cheaper the better. Such customers are generally called junk customers by intermediary companies.
Looking at the ordinary-looking girl wearing ordinary clothes, the agency manager lazily replied: "Whether it's three months or one year, the agency fee is the same."
Xining nodded directly: "Okay, look at it now and decide if you are satisfied."
The agency manager then took her to see the house. It was a partition room worth 400 yuan. The tenants in the eight partition rooms shared the bathroom. There was not even a window: "Pay one and deposit one!"
Xining looked at it and said, "How much does it cost for the one with a window?" My sister needs air, and it's very stuffy without even a window.
This kind of rubbish customer has no money but a lot of requirements. Sometimes they look at several houses. Even though they know that all the houses are the same, they still want to continue looking. Only when they see that there are no houses to look at can they make a decision.
The agency manager became more and more impatient: "It costs 600 for a room with a window and a bigger room, and it costs 800 or 900 for a room with its own bathroom or kitchen."
Xining thought for a while: "Give me a bathroom with its own bathroom."
The agency manager became interested: "How about one thousand and two dollars? It's shared by three families. The more people share it, the more people have to queue up to take a shower in the bathroom at night..." He said a lot.
Xining just listened quietly, and then said: "No, just bring your own bathroom, sign for half a year!" Within half a year, Zhao's mother should not come here after her.
Because the contract was only for half a year, the second landlord refused to lower the price and rented a partitioned room with its own bathroom for 900 yuan.
Deposit one, pay one, plus a slightly discounted agency fee, 2150 yuan is gone. There is still 350 yuan left, and it will take a month, which is enough.
Xining turned on her phone and looked at her credit limit. Because she didn't spend much money, she only had a credit limit of one thousand yuan. It has been six years since I opened it, and my credit limit is only 1,000, which is really good!
After thinking about it, I took my ID card to the bank and applied for a credit card. It would take a few days to get the credit card.
I went to buy bedding, pots and pans, but luckily it was summer and I didn’t need quilts. But even if I choose the cheapest one, it still costs nearly a hundred yuan. If you need anything else, just buy it online.
After cleaning up the small room, I went to eat a bowl of pickled vegetables and noodles, went back and took a shower, and lay down on the bed tiredly. Finally got it done, start work tomorrow.
Xining does everything in the company with ease, and can always point out various operational problems to the point. The English reports he types can be sent to the headquarters without any modification at all. The general manager was impressed by his excellent business ability, and his colleagues went from being uncooperative to admiring and obeying this newcomer.
"Emma!" After reporting something, the general manager stopped her. This is a middle-aged man in his forties. Like the ordinary middle class people in Country M, he pays attention to daily exercise and maintenance, and maintains a good spirit. Appearance, suit and leather shoes. He sat behind the desk, and after hesitation he said it: "I found that you only have two pieces of clothing, and this afternoon, I happen to have a more important meeting, and I want to take you there."
