born workaholic

At 03:30 in the morning, in a 34-square-meter studio, a person was wrapped in a blanket on a soft bed, with a head protruding from the pillow, and the sound of slight snoring wafted through the dark room.

The man had evidently slept soundly.

Suddenly, he began to turn over, to and fro, as if extremely unsteady.He was dreaming. What was he dreaming of?He turned around and frowned.

In the dream world, it is snowing heavily, fluttering and disturbing.

In the dream, he returned to the time when he was seven years old, walking on the street with his little hand held by his father's big hand.In his dream, he remembered that his mother left him and his father, and his mother said, Duan Weihua, you are so useless.At that time, he didn't know what it meant to be useless, he only knew that his mother had left him and his father cruelly.

Dad's hands are cold, colder than his little hands.However, Dad squatted down, wrapped the scarf around his neck around him, and almost buried half of his face in it.

No sound could be heard in the dream, although Dad opened his mouth to speak.

Didi Didi, where is the weird sound coming from?In his dream, he looked around.

Suddenly, someone threw snowballs at them, not playful snowballs, but mocking, chasing, and contemptuous.

He couldn't hear the sound in the dream, but he could imagine that those snowballs would make many "pop", "pop", and "pop" sounds when they hit him and his father's ski jackets.

Dad first squatted down to protect him, but seeing more and more people hitting them with snowballs, Dad took his little hand and ran.He strode hard to follow his father, but he was about to lose track of him, plop, he fell to the ground.

Boom...!Due to the continuous turning of the body, the person on the bed was wrapped in a blanket and fell to the floor in an extremely ugly prone position.

With such a fall, he opened his sleepy eyes, hesitated for three seconds, and suddenly jumped up from the ground like a spring.Picking up the alarm clock next to the bed, it was five past four in the morning!

"SHIT!" He was late!

Regardless of tidying the blankets on the floor to the bed, he quickly opened the chef's drawer, took some clothes and put them in a plastic bag, rushed to the toilet to tidy up, and then rushed out of the room.

Downstairs, in the darkness, his bicycle was parked.After unlocking the door and boarding the car, he started pedaling desperately and rushed out...

The person in the "running" is Duan Yu, a workaholic.

Get up at 08 o'clock in the morning every day to work as a part-time job, step into the XXYY investment consulting company located on the 30th floor of a business building on N Road, S City at 30:[-] a.m. to start official work, and start another part-time job after [-] o'clock in the evening.Of course, if necessary, Duan Yu can stay up all night and work overtime.

But please remember, there is a prerequisite for everything, that is, you must be able to make money, otherwise Duan Yu will snort and snore in return.

Making money is Duan Yu's greatest joy in life; saving money is his lifelong pursuit.

However, today he got up late, and being late means that his income will be reduced. For Duan Yu, this is a heartbreaking thing.

So, he kept running.Fortunately, there were no people on the road after four o'clock in the morning, allowing him to run through red lights at high speed without being stopped by the police.

At two o'clock in the morning, Duan Yu had just finished a thesis, and he was a writer.Duan Yu charges [-] yuan for a graduate thesis. The fee is not high, and the quality is guaranteed. There are quite a lot of people looking for him to write the thesis.

This morning, he fell asleep with a smile on his face. Thinking of the [-] yuan that he would soon get, he felt his heart beating faster and filled with joy.However, he didn't expect that after graduating from university, he hadn't dreamed for four years, but he actually had a dream, and it was still the same dream.Moreover, at this moment, he felt a toothache.

Even though the bicycle was running fast, Duan Yu still raised one hand to support his cheek, the root of his right tooth was very painful.Duan Yu has a bad feeling, once the toothache hurts, nothing good will happen!

Duan Yu pedaled the car desperately, wishing he could fly the car into the air. In 23 minutes and [-] seconds, Duan Yu arrived at the "Wangfu" dim sum shop.

In the early summer night, it was not so cold, and Duan Yu's T-shirt was a little wet after he hurried all the way.After pushing the car to the backyard of the store and locking the car, Duan Yu hurriedly entered the kitchen through the back door.Inside, Master Liu had already put the crabs and tools on the table, and slowly peeled the crabs.

Yes, judges, you guessed it right, Duan Yu’s temporary work at four o’clock in the morning was to prepare for the opening of the time-honored dim sum shop “Wangfu” in S City—crab peeling. The most famous dim sum in "Wang Fu" is the crab rice dumpling. There is always a queue at the door to buy hot dumpling, even in summer.

It is said that many hotels will also come to the "Wangfu" to buy crab noodles, which is convenient and trouble-free.Therefore, in the "Prince's Mansion", there are always several masters peeling crabs from morning till night.

Auntie Su, the fastest crab peeler in the "Wang's Mansion", takes about two minutes and 20 seconds to peel a crab. Her crab peeling skills have been performed on CCTV. The speed and sharpness of her technique are unmatched by anyone.The second is another Master Lu, which takes about two minutes and 40 seconds.However, the two masters are masters, and their working hours are from [-] am to [-] pm.The opening time of "Wangfu" is seven o'clock in the morning. If you want to sell crab noodles when the door opens, someone must prepare crab noodles before six o'clock.

Crabs are amazing. Once they are placed in the refrigerator or stored overnight, they will always have a stale smell. Therefore, they must be peeled and used up on the same day.

Therefore, the first person to go to work in the "Prince's Mansion" is not the master who prepares the noodles, but the small worker who is responsible for peeling crabs.

At the beginning, when Duan Yu approached the store manager of "Wangfu", he said that he hoped to do a part-time job, peeling crabs for the store.Almost didn't intimidate the store manager.

A white and clean young man who looks like a student of a higher education institution wants to go to a dim sum shop to peel crabs? !What an unheard of thing!Besides, they have Aunt Su, who is the best crab peeler in the world, so why would they want such a young man?

At that time, Duan Yu was only 21 years old, a sophomore in college.

"I know that in order to open the door to sell things, I have to start peeling crabs in the early morning. I am willing to come and peel crabs in the early morning." Duan Yu looked at the store manager sincerely.Duan Yu's father used to be a pastry chef, so Duan Yu knows the rules of this business.

"But..." The store manager looked at the masters who were quickly peeling crabs in the glass wall, and then at Duan Yu, and what he wanted to say was self-evident.

"Why don't you take a look at my craftsmanship first?" Duan Yu said confidently.

The store manager can't recall until now, why he easily gave Duan Yu a chance to show his skills, maybe it's always like this in the world.

Duan Yu followed the store manager into the kitchen. He washed his hands, skillfully put on the mask and gloves, picked up tools and began to peel the crabs. It took about three minutes and 25 seconds to peel a crab completely.The people in the kitchen were naturally dumbfounded.

These days, it is really hard to find anyone with this skill at such a young age.

Since then, Duan Yu has worked as a temporary worker in the "Prince's Mansion" until now.

"Master Liu, I'm really sorry, I got up late today." Duan Yu looked at Master Liu who was already peeling crabs with great embarrassment, washed his hands quickly, put on special clothes for the kitchen, put on a mask and gloves, and sat down. Come down and start peeling crabs.

"Hehe, Xiao Duan, it's rare that you have persisted for so many years. This job is hard work." Master Liu didn't care if Duan Yu was late, anyway, it was only 10 minutes, and it didn't affect the opening of the door.He saw Duan Yu taking over the crab peeling, so he put down his tools and got up to do other preparations.

Duan Yu glanced at Master Liu, smiled apologetically, did not speak, and concentrated on peeling the crab.He began to calculate in his heart, ten yuan for an hour, five yuan for half an hour, five yuan was enough for him to eat breakfast and dinner, a heavy loss!

"Xiao Duan, you are peeling faster and faster. In a few years, I am afraid that you will surpass Aunt Su!" Master Liu boiled water, took out the flour, and took out various ingredients from the refrigerator, while While chatting with Duan Yu.

"Hehe..." Duan Yu just smiled, the important thing is to peel the crab.

Today's Duan Yu, if his gestures are good, the time it takes to peel a crab can exceed the 3-minute mark, and the speed is almost as fast as that of Master Lu.However, today's Duan Yu is obviously not in good condition, and his speed has dropped significantly.

"Huh...? What's the matter today? Is the speed a bit slow?" Master Liu didn't mean to blame at all, but looked at the basin with a smile, stroked the back of Duan Yu's head with his hand, and said like pampering his grandson talk.

"Oh... I have a toothache." Duan Yu only felt that his teeth were getting more and more painful, and he had a very bad premonition.

It’s really strange, he really hasn’t dreamed for a long time, and his daily life is full of arrangements. When he returns home and lays down on the bed, it only takes ten seconds for him to fall asleep deeply. He has no time to dream, and he can sleep for a while. for a while.Why are you dreaming today?In the dream, he was only seven years old, but those lingering things did not happen when he was seven!So weird!Is it because I miss my father?

Alas..., sigh.

"Hey...you are so young, why are you sighing? I, an old man, haven't sighed yet!" Master Liu laughed from the sidelines, as did his precious grandson, who likes to sigh at a young age, and always says weird things.Young people today are different from what they used to be.

"It's nothing...toothache." Duan Yu replied a little angrily.

"Are you on fire? Drink more water!" Master Liu said, and drove off again.

It was already 07:30 in the morning when we left the "Wang's Mansion". Duan Yu had peeled enough crabs and left them in the shop, enough for the crab peelers to go to work at [-] o'clock.

Rubbing Ji Li Gu Lu's stomach, Duan Yu pushed the cart to the snack street behind the "Wang's Mansion", and went to the bun shop where he often buys breakfast to buy breakfast.The buns in this bun shop are not the best, but they are the cheapest in the whole street.

"Two meat buns, a cup of soy milk?" the little bun seller asked with a smile.

Nodding his head, he handed over the money, Duan Yu always buys these two things.Every time he handed over the money, Duan Yu always murmured in his heart: Why are the meat buns and vegetable buns the same price?Why is the steamed stuffed bun almost the same size as a small cage?

Duan Yu doesn't like meat buns very much, but in the whole street, vegetable buns and meat buns cost the same. The most luxurious commercial street in S City is surrounded by unscrupulous shops, and even the bun shop is also unscrupulous.Since vegetable buns and meat buns cost the same price, it is always more cost-effective to eat meat buns, so Duan Yu insisted on buying meat buns.

In the morning of early summer, the sun was already full of sunshine, making people slightly hot. Due to toothache, Duan Yu lost his appetite, so he simply wrapped the second uneaten bun and put it in a plastic bag in his bicycle pocket , Thinking about having it for dinner.

I stepped on the bicycle and was about to go to the company, but when I stepped on the pedal, I found that the bicycle was very weak. I looked down, okay, the tire is flat, or both are flat at the same time!

"Prince's Mansion" is still a little distance away from the company. If you walk there, you may be late.After touching the change in his pocket, Duan Yu gritted his teeth and decided to take the bus to the company.

Locking up the car at a place where bicycles can be parked for free on the side of the road, Duan Yu hurried to the station with a plastic bag in his hand, and squeezed into the compartment just before the bus door closed.

However, tragedy happened!The road was a bit congested, but after climbing half the distance, a traffic accident happened at the intersection ahead, and it stopped completely.After waiting for a while, everyone saw that the accident could not be ruled out for a long time, and seeing that there was no hope to move on, they all got out of the car and walked forward.

At this time, it was almost a quarter past eight.Our Duan Yu started running wildly after getting out of the car, his beloved car was already lying far away and helpless.

When he ran downstairs to the company, Duan Yu was out of breath and sweating profusely, but he was still late, ten past nine.

As I said before, Duan Yu's formal occupation is as a white-collar worker in a business building on N Road in S City.As usual, the employees of the company only need to be in the office before 08:30 a.m., but because of temporary work, Duan Yu always arrives at the office after breakfast at [-]:[-].On weekdays, after stepping out of the elevator, Duan Yu would turn a corner and go straight to the toilet, and change into clothes that matched his work, including a shirt, trousers, leather shoes and a tie.

However, he was late today, so he decided to change his clothes in the toilet on the 29th floor before going up to the 30th floor. Being late can never change the fact, at least not in the current embarrassment.

Just when Duan Yu stepped into the toilet on the 29th floor, he found that today was his tragic day, the plastic bag in his hand, the plastic bag containing his full suit, was not in his own hand.When did you lose it?He can't remember at all!

"My God!" A miserable cry came from the 29th floor of a commercial building on N Road in S City, resounding through the sky.

Absence from work is always wrong, so Duan Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and walked into the office of XXYY Investment Consulting Company on the 30th floor.

Someone blew the whistle!Naked-naked mockery.

"I said, Xiao Duan, what did you do last night with your outfit?"

Duan Yu looked down at his slightly bulky, shabby, and sloppy T-shirt, and felt that his face was a little hot.This is his one hundred and one piece of clothing at home, which he wears outside in summer and inside in spring, autumn and winter.It was worn out and mended, the seams were scratched, and it was dirty and washed.

"Wow... Team leader, is this... performance art?"

Art hair? !

It's a shame, it's really a shame!He, Duan Yu, is one of the team leaders of the sales department, so it's really embarrassing.What an excruciating day this is going to be? !

Smile, no matter how ugly you are, you have to laugh.Duan Yu smiled wryly and walked to his seat.

"Team leader Duan," Wu Ming, another team leader of the business department, walked up to Duan Yu and whispered in his ear, "You haven't forgotten, have you? Today is the day when the general manager announced who was promoted to assistant manager of the business department." Days." Complacent, even a little gloating, and wishing to be able to make trouble.

a bolt from the blue!

He actually forgot all about it!Duan Yu stared blankly at the desk calendar on his desk, the huge thick circle drawn with a red pen a month ago was still there, and the day in it was today.

Did he lose his memory?Or crossed?

Duan Yu felt his teeth hurt even more!It seems... and some stomach pains...

The tragedies in life are more or less a domino effect. When one happens, the next one will happen, and then another one will come. The tragic effect will not end until the last domino falls.Duan Yu felt a little nervous, he didn't want to worry about when the first domino fell, when will the last domino fall?No... There are N+1 dominoes, right?
