Autumn comes unexpectedly early. In previous Octobers, short-sleeved shorts were all over the streets in Zhucheng, and it was always hot when going out. But this year, after celebrating the National Day, everyone dug out jackets and windbreakers when the cold wind called.

Everyone in the circle of friends lamented that Zhucheng had finally caught up with the pace of people across the country and entered autumn together.

At six o'clock in the evening, the sky was gray and the drizzle seemed to have no end. Lin Qian was curled up on the lazy chair on the balcony in her pajamas, watching the people hurried home after get off work.

He turned his head and leisurely picked up the small tongs and turned over the two rice cakes that were already fragrant. Then he picked up the wine pot on the small stove and poured a cup of warm rice wine. He picked it up and took a sip.

A minute later, she stood up, picked up the camera on the tripod, and began to review the footage that had been shot for a long time.

Lin Qian decided to become an Up owner at the beginning of the year. Her account usually only shares her daily life without showing her face.

The frequency of video uploads also depends on my mood. Anyway, I just want to find something to do for myself, and I don't rely on it to make a living. This way, the frequency of Buddhist updates has accumulated tens of thousands of fans in half a year.

Xiaofu means peace. Lin Qian feels that her life in the first 28 years has been relatively stable, mainly because she met several "noble people" who took her away.

The first noble person was Grandma Lin, the director of the children's welfare home. She was a serious and kind old man. It was also when she was walking in the evening when the sky was full of sunset that she heard cries in the grass and discovered a man who had been killed. The abandoned baby girl, Grandma Lin later named the thin baby girl Lin Qian.

Years ago, life in the orphanage could only be described as subsistence food and clothing. I don't know how many of the white hairs on Grandma Lin's head turned gray because of the money that was far from enough.

Most of the couples who come to adopt children are willing to have a boy. When Lin Qian was a child, she was skinny and small, running around all day long, so naturally she was not noticed by others.

However, she felt that she was different from other children. She didn't like to be controlled since she was a child. She cried when she fell down. She just got up and patted the ground and it was fine.

It's so troublesome to find parents for yourself, and you have to do things based on people's opinions. How nice it is to live with Grandma Lin.

But Lin Qian forgot at the time that she was able to live freely in the orphanage because Grandma Lin helped support her.

After finishing the high school entrance examination at the age of 15, that summer was the darkest time in her life. After seeing Lin Qian admitted to the best high school in the city, Grandma Lin gasped and said the last words to her, "You must go to college. Come see me with your college diploma!”

After the funeral, Lin Qian spent a week in confusion, and was informed by the new director of the orphanage that after the nine-year compulsory education, the orphanage would no longer be responsible for her high school tuition, and she would have to rely on herself for everything.

She doesn't even have time to grieve, she works part-time, part-time, wherever there is work, she is there. She was as busy as a spiral during her three years of high school.

Fortunately, she had a good memory and could basically memorize the knowledge in the book after reading it three times, so she chose liberal arts as a sophomore subject without hesitation.

During the physical examination in her senior year of high school, she was 166cm tall and only weighed 80 pounds. She had a skinny figure under her wide school uniform.

She passed the college entrance examination and entered the 211 University at the bottom of Zhucheng. She was transferred to the history department. There are advantages to taking a side subject, that is, the courses are concentrated and the teacher is not so strict in roll call.

Although she applied for a student loan, she still had to work part-time to earn living expenses. While working part-time during the winter vacation of her freshman year, she met her second "noble person", Ms. Xu.

That night, Lin Qian rode a second-hand electric car from the milk tea shop where she worked to her university dormitory. While taking a shortcut through an alley, she met Ms. Xu who was drunk and being harassed by two men. After hesitating for a few seconds, Lin Qian lowered her voice. The voice said loudly and rudely: "Get away, if you harass my sister again, I will hit you with my car!"

If Grandma Lin was teaching her how to be an adult, Miss Xu was teaching her how to make a living.

That day, she supported Miss Xu and stood there for a while. The other party borrowed her PHS phone to make a phone call and then let her leave. Lin Qian thought it was just a rough encounter on the road and she came to her aid. Unexpectedly, she met Xu at the milk tea shop the next night. Miss.

Ms. Xu asked her if she wanted a high-paying part-time job selling houses. The basic salary is 300 a day on weekends, and the commission is 1% on the sale of a set.

She learned a lot from Ms. Xu in those years. At the beginning, Ms. Xu basically taught her step by step. The first order she took her to negotiate was also the customer resources provided by Ms. Xu.

The week she signed her first deal, she got a commission of 3 yuan, which was enough to cover her living expenses for four years of college. When Ms. Xu asked her if she wanted to continue working, Lin Qian thought about it all night. The next day, I went to Taikoo Hui to pick up a Chanel bag and put it on Ms. Xu's desk.

Ms. Xu, who was drinking coffee at the time, took the bag and glanced at it. After being stunned for a few seconds, she looked up at her, smiled, and said to her, "Sissi, you have already left school."

Who came to view the house? All kinds of people.

In Zhucheng, the uncle holding a toothpick and wearing slippers might be a demolished household with a net worth of tens of millions. The aunt wearing gold and silver who is calling friends might have just returned from shopping in Paris. There are elites who still wear suits and leather shoes in the dog days of summer. Maybe it’s the financial upstart who just got off the plane.

Lin Qian relied on her good memory, diligent skills and sweet talk, plus the customers introduced by Miss Xu, to average 1-2 orders per month.

Now that she has money, she has the confidence to buy things for herself. I don’t know if it was because she was so short before. In her junior year of college, she actually grew to 170cm tall and she didn’t gain weight no matter how much she ate.

Ms. Xu likes to feed her snacks the most. According to her words, "Every time I see you eating, I feel like I have tasted it myself."

After graduation, Lin Qian made a copy of her graduation certificate and burned it at the grave for Grandma Lin to see.

As a matter of course, she chose to continue working in sales. Ms. Xu resigned a few months ago and immigrated to Canada with her husband.

In the past few years, Lin Qian had only been acquaintances with her classmates in the dormitory, and only had a relationship with her colleagues as dining friends. When Miss Xu left, she became alone again.

When Miss Xu left, she talked to her a lot, including telling her about the past: "When I met you, you looked tall and thin, but your eyes were firm and persistent, like a fire burning. At that time, I just thought, this girl must be a good girl."

Miss Xu's face was calm and she took a sip of coffee and continued: "A stupid woman was saved by a good girl. At that time, the stupid woman had just been dumped by a rich second generation, and she cried so hard that she People go to bars to get drunk.”

"People don't care about your sincerity, they only care about who you marry. Sissi, do you know that the man proposed to me with a ring just last month and said he would take me to meet his family during the National Day. This month he turned around and said He said that he couldn't help himself and coaxed me to be his lover. Look at you now, you have grown more beautiful, you are good at dressing up and you are young and have a good figure. You must remember my lesson. Don't take it too seriously, or you won't be sad. "

Ms. Xu finally told her with sincerity: "House prices will only rise but not fall. If you have savings, buy a house as soon as possible."

After hearing these words, Lin Qian thought about it again and again, and finally decided to spend all her savings and find the department manager of the real estate developer.

Because they often cooperated with each other, the other party readily gave her a very low discount. So when she was 22 years old, she bought a 56-square-meter small two-bedroom apartment with full payment, and got the key to the house a year later. , she officially felt a sense of belonging in this city for the first time.

After officially becoming a full-time salesperson, Lin Qian was transferred to the villa area based on her experience and performance. She found that there were still many differences between full-time and part-time sales on weekends.

There are many people on weekends, but those who come to view properties are usually with their families, so the transaction rate is low. There are fewer people coming on weekdays, but there are more potential customers.

Having been in this business for a long time, especially after she was transferred to sell villas, she slowly thought about the meaning of Miss Xu's words. It was really hard not to be enchanted by the prosperity and wealth of Zhucheng.

Some of my colleagues around me became the one who came to buy a house with her "boyfriend" after working for a few months, even if the boyfriend was old enough to be her father.

There are still people who are envious of this. If you buy a villa in a few years of youth, you will make money no matter what! Whenever colleagues around her made similar remarks, Lin Qian would argue with her reasoning at first, but later she learned to remain silent.

Three years later, she sat in the same position as Miss Xu, with a wider horizon and more resources. Lin Qian once again decided to use her savings over the past few years as a down payment, borrow money from the bank, and follow an old customer to buy it. A few months later, the municipal government announced plans to build a subway station for a 28-square-meter duplex shop. The price of the shop suddenly doubled several times.

A year ago, after her 28th birthday, she decided to resign.

She has been busy for so many years. After all the loans for the shop are paid off, the monthly rent of 3 yuan is enough to cover her daily expenses and even have a balance.

It’s so great to not have to wear high heels or put on makeup to go out, to greet people with a smile every day, and not to have to be busy and miss meals on time!

Today would have been a perfect day if this thing that claimed to be the end-of-day civilization rescue system hadn't appeared in front of her, causing her to almost drop the camera.
