Chapter 72 Good luck

Tiandu is the southernmost coastal city in China, adjacent to the South China Sea. It has the largest trading port in the world. The average daily throughput far exceeds the sum of No. 3. Ships from all over the world come and go here.

This has naturally created the prosperity of the city today, and it is firmly ranked among the top three in the world.

As a coastal city, Lausanne will pale in comparison.

As the world's leading city, Tiandu is full of opportunities, and it is a place that many people yearn for. Not to mention other countries, as far as Huaguo alone is concerned, millions of "Tiandu" pour into it every year, seeking to "break the cocoon" chance to become a butterfly.

But opportunities often coexist with challenges.

Isn't the reason why ordinary people account for 90.00% of the world's total population at [-]% because they cannot complete challenges and obtain opportunities?
Sun Lei is a member of the general public in the world, and has been a "Tian Piao" for two years.

After graduating from school two years ago, he came to Tiandu with full enthusiasm and was determined to make a career without choosing to continue his studies.

But living in a big place is not easy. As a three-no person with no funds, no connections, and no experience, he will lose a lot of hair every time he pays the rent. Even today, he is still hovering on the line of food and clothing.

A month ago, due to the shortage of funds, the company announced that it will only pay the basic salary for the time being, and the bonus will need to wait until the next month to pay it together.

This made Sun Lei, who was about to let go of the pot, feel more and more cold.

The basic salary is enough to pay the rent, but after paying the rent, he will have to drink northwest wind for the next month.

But if he doesn't pay the rent, it is estimated that the charter woman who doesn't like him at all will immediately let him pack up and leave.

The harm between the two powers was the lesser, Sun Lei gritted his teeth and decided to pay the rent first.

After all, living on the streets without a house can kill people.

However, just after Sun Lei was ready to live in the company for a month, that kind-faced charterer who loved to wear thin printed skirts came to the door, saying that she saw him living in such a large room alone. The house was a bit lonely, so a "roommate" was specially found for him.

With one more person, the rent will naturally be reduced appropriately.

If it was according to Sun Lei's temper two years ago, how could he accept living with a stranger.

Even after two years of beatings by the society, he would turn a corner and refuse last month when he still had the confidence to pay the rent.

But today is different, and he has no "confidence" in his pocket, so Sun Lei can only agree with a smile, and by the way, he also helps his "roommate" carry the luggage into the house.

After the charterer left, Sun Lei, who was not very good at interacting with strangers, greeted his "roommate" in a blunt tone because of the reason why he looked up and looked down.

This "roommate" was estimated to be a few years older than Sun Lei, but he could still be considered to be of the same age. He seemed to have just arrived in Tiandu.

It may be because he is the same "Tian Piao" and is about the same age. He is very friendly to the "enthusiastic" Sun Lei. He not only responded with a smile, but also took the initiative to invite guests to dinner.

Sun Lei, who was already stretched, would naturally not refuse.

With this meal, the two quickly became familiar from strangers, and Sun Lei also learned the name of this "roommate"——Shen Xiu.

After a period of contact, Sun Lei is quite satisfied with this "roommate" with a delicate name.

The other party not only doesn't like to be nosy, but lives in seclusion, and invites him to dinner from time to time.

The only thing that surprised Sun Lei was that this "roommate" said on the day he moved in that he didn't want others to enter his room at will.

Everyone has privacy, and Sun Lei is no exception.

He didn't want outsiders to enter his "territory", and the bedroom was even more "hidden away", even if the other party didn't tell him, he would bring it up.

In addition, he is also a little curious about the source of income of this "roommate".

This guy doesn't go to work every day. He either goes out for a walk alone or hides in his room. He doesn't know where the money for treating him to dinner comes from.

Of course, Sun Lei was only secretly wondering about this kind of privacy issue, and would not really ask it.

The other party also has a tacit understanding, and will not take the initiative to ask him similar questions.

The two of them got along so peacefully, maintaining a lukewarm relationship where they would have a meal from time to time and have been roommates for more than a month.

On this day, when Sun Lei came home from get off work, he was surprised to see Shen Xiu sitting on the sofa watching TV for the first time.

"Didn't this guy always like to stay in the bedroom, and the sun came out from the west today?"

Sun Lei casually hung the backpack on the hook on the wall, walked over, glanced at the TV, and said with a smile:

"Okay, don't look at it, pack up and go out, we're getting paid today, and after eating you so many free meals, it's our turn to treat you once."

"Really? Then I'm welcome."

Shen Xiu raised her eyebrows and simply turned off the TV.

The two left the rental house and came to the place where they often ate. Sun Lei took the menu handed over by the waiter very grandly, and handed it to Shen Xiu, as if he wanted to order whatever you wanted.

Shen Xiu didn't speak, just sketched a few dishes at random, and returned them to the waiter.

Sun Lei took a peek, and found that they were all home-cooked dishes, not too extravagant, so he couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"This guy is really on the right track, he didn't let us bleed, he's very loyal."

Shen Xiu naturally noticed Sun Lei's careful thinking, and didn't point it out. She took a sip of the tea from the restaurant and said:
"Look at your rosy face, today should not be as simple as paying salary, is there other good things?"

Sun Lei smiled and said triumphantly:
"Finally, we have finally come to an end."

"Promoted?" Shen Xiu narrowed her eyes and smiled.

Sun Lei nodded, picked up the cup to moisten his throat, but felt that the tea was a bit hot, so he had to take a sip.

"Not yet, but soon"

Sun Lei is usually not a chatterbox, but perhaps he was too happy today and had no one to share with him, so he could only tell Shen Xiu his joy.

Shen Xiu didn't interrupt him, and listened while drinking tea.

Who knows, he didn't stop until the first dish was served.

Sun Lei said so much, most of which were about the difficulty and bitterness before complaining, and only a little bit about his "promotion".

And the reason why he said that he was about to be promoted was also very simple.

As the new year approaches, many companies in Tiandu City are preparing to hold annual meetings. As an event planning company, Sun Lei's company has naturally received many projects.

However, due to some incidents not long ago, some positions in Sun Lei's company became vacant.

After the dust settled, many newcomers were recruited. Now that so many projects have been received at once, it is logical for the old employees to step up.

However, promotion requires a causal relationship, and one cannot be promoted for no reason.

Therefore, the company boss took all the projects received this time as an exam.

If anyone successfully completes the project, the position will naturally be secured, and if he makes a mistake, he probably won't have the face to be promoted.

"Old Shen, it's not that we're bragging. Our promotion this time is a sure thing." Sun Lei blushed slightly, a little excited.

"How do you say it?" Shen Xiu was very interested.

Sun Lei smiled and said:

"We're lucky. The project we got was from an old client. Don't be picky. It's easy to talk. Let me tell you the truth. It's a nursing home. It's full of old men and women. As long as the event is lively , they like it very much, and the place is not too far from where we live, it is only four streets away, so it is convenient for us to commute to and from work."

Speaking of joy, Sun Lei narrowed his eyes with a smile.

At this moment, the waiter who served the food suddenly froze and said strangely:

"Brother Sun, you didn't mean the 'Wutong Garden' on Tianshui Street, did you?"
