Song Tan Jishi

 The Chinese New Year is a wonderful vacation for some people, but for others, it is layer upon layer of stress.

 The latter is the case in Chen Yuan’s family.

 His situation is known to his relatives and friends.

 In addition, I stayed at home until the Chinese New Year and I didn’t hear of any work. Now is the time to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, and every household has to ask questions when I see them.

Although there are many relatives who try to introduce them with good intentions, and some even directly call their acquaintances or relatives to inquire about job positions.

 Chen Yuan’s parents didn’t even have time to stop him, so they just stood there in embarrassment.

Feeling this embarrassment, Chen Yuan was once again grateful that he had seized the job opportunity a year ago.

Now, when his relatives hung up the phone and looked at his parents apologetically, Chen Yuan finally sorted out his words in his mind.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard his relative say:

“Look...Chen Yuan, it’s not that we don’t want to try to pull some strings, it’s actually that your situation is a bit difficult to handle...”

"But, don't be angry. Your cousin and I still have strong connections. Many bosses in companies and factories are good friends with me. I'll say a few words later and let's make an appointment to have a meal together. You can find a factory and work as a security guard there. "

“You can’t look down on security guards. Many college students want to do this now, just for leisure.”

 Chen’s father and Chen’s mother finally couldn’t help but want to say that Chen Yuan had found a job. At this moment, their brows were filled with joy. Just as they were about to speak, they heard Chen Yuan speak first:

“Thank you, cousin. The security guard is very good and I like to work.”

 “But my job has been settled, it’s just not in place yet.”

What?

Relatives all pricked up their ears: "What kind of job? Where is it? How much does it cost per month? Can you do it with your current body?"

This series of questions were asked all over the place, and everyone looked over with bright eyes, obviously wanting to know more.

 Father Chen and mother Chen were about to say that they also work as security guards, but the salary seems to be pretty good.

I heard Chen Yuan calmly say: "I'm just doing some security work... I'm in another place, it's not convenient to disclose it, and the place is relatively remote..."

 “Who introduced me? Oh, some of my previous relationships...”

“How much is the salary? The salary is not high, just 4,000 yuan. I didn’t ask anything else. I will obey whatever arrangements are made..."

　　His!

 Everyone read this sentence carefully, and now they seemed to have understood something extraordinary.

 Work in security—oh yo! Let's just say that Xiaoyuan is a promising kid. Now that his legs are like this, he can still have such an important task... Isn't he just like the king of soldiers on TV before?

 The place is still remote and it is not convenient to disclose...

 Get it, get it! They all use the Internet frequently, and they understand that there are some places that they just can’t tell, even if they can’t find them on the map.

　　嗐! If you have a good future, what’s the point of being remote? Wage or not is actually not a big problem.

  After all, in that environment, salary may only be an insignificant part of it, and the invisible benefits are the most important.

Xiao Yuan must have some understanding!

 Look what others say? How to arrange and obey!

 Listen! What a trustworthy flavor!

 The atmosphere instantly became more harmonious.

The relatives who had been fussing about helping him find a job enthusiastically served him tea and fruits, and then asked again: "Chen Yuan, you are now 30. Have you considered the target?" "

 The honest father and mother Chen were sitting there, thinking carefully about their son's words.

 There seems to be nothing wrong, but nothing seems to be right.

It is security work, the place is indeed quite remote, and I have some previous relationships with my former comrades...

 The two of them were surrounded by a lively atmosphere, and they were becoming more and more confused at this moment.

 Going home at night, my parents rode an electric car, and Chen Yuan followed a shared electric car next to him.

 There was no one on the road late at night, and they rode slowly, one behind the other, chatting while riding.

“Xiaoyuan, why do you make your job so mysterious?”

“Aren’t we just looking after the rice fields and cattle and sheep in the village as security guards?”

 “I don’t have one.” Chen Yuan said seriously:

“My classmates all reminded me like that. Even if you look at the rice fields, the rice is probably not supplied to ordinary people... so you can feel more comfortable.”

Mama Chen muttered: "I'm afraid that if relatives ask about your work in the future, I won't be able to ask. If you want to introduce someone, you have to know what you are doing."

"Not in a hurry."

Now that the work has been decided, although there will be a lot of gossip during the Chinese New Year, my parents will not be wronged overall.

 Chen Yuan's whole person's brilliance gradually soared again, and he was one or two years younger than his previous depressed state.

 As a result, I am no longer so worried about the future.

At this moment, he took the initiative to comfort his parents: "I'm going to take a look at the work environment first, and then think about the future. Can we wait until these things are sorted out before we talk about the partner? Otherwise, it will be in a different place now, and it will not be easy to talk. become."

 “Okay, okay, okay.”

It is so difficult to have a son, and the mother doesn’t have to push him, but she just wants to give him more consideration. Now that they have a plan, they are naturally more confident.

 When Chen Yuan returned home, looking at his neatly packed luggage, he couldn't help but take another deep breath.

If we have four days off every month, it will take more than ten hours to go back and forth on the high-speed train and travel, making it a bit difficult to go home.

 But in his current situation, staying at home for unnecessary company would only cause rumors to hurt his parents.

 He looked down at his leg again, took out his disability certificate and put it away, and finally sighed deeply.

 …

 On the seventh day of the first lunar month, many people have once again flooded into the high-speed rail station.

Most of them carry large and small bags from their hometown to another distant place, running for life.

 Chen Yuan informed their small group of 23 people, and then took the certificate and entered the high-speed rail station directly.

 High-speed rail security check is much more convenient than that of an airplane. You can pass the inspection smoothly after showing your ID and showing your injured leg in a separate room.

And he strode along with the surging crowd, and there was no trace of his prosthetic limbs in his movements.

After stuffing the suitcase on top, he helped the little girl sitting next to him put the suitcase on top. Chen Yuan sat there and let out a long sigh of relief. Inexplicably, he felt a faint sense of nervousness about his future working environment. .

 The girl beside him put down the table, with her cell phone standing on it, and turned to look for her headphones.

 She should be watching the live broadcast. Chen Yuan had no intention of watching, but the live broadcast was broadcast externally, and the refreshing voice of the boy came from inside:

“…My sister said that we won’t be allowed to go to class because of the big holiday.”

“…Let’s show the children our working environment and accommodation environment today! New employees will arrive tomorrow… My sister said they will be cool brothers…”

This voice is clear and has a slightly innocent feeling in it, which makes people want to continue listening.

Chen Yuan subconsciously glanced over and saw the boy pushing open a large iron door and walking towards the self-built building on one side.

Huh?

He frowned, feeling that this picture looked familiar.

I was about to explore further, but I saw that the girl beside me had already taken out her earphones and enthusiastically passed her phone to the side:

 "Do you also like to watch Qiaoqiao's live broadcast? Let's watch it together!"

As she spoke, she sighed exaggeratedly: "Without Qiaoqiao live broadcasting the dinner during the Chinese New Year, I feel that the New Year's Eve dinner is not as delicious... I prepared a lot of New Year's money and year-end bonuses, and prepared to go shopping in the store! But he still didn't have anything. Selling... is too much..."

This girl seems to be a talker. Chen Yuan hasn't said a word yet. She started talking a lot by herself.

  But fortunately, no personal privacy was revealed, and the male anchor named Qiaoqiao was all he talked about.

 This made Chen Yuan frown slightly again.

 But everyone’s life and pastime are different, and he doesn’t intend to make too many comments. Just when I glanced over subconsciously, I saw the door being opened, revealing a brand new, unoccupied dormitory environment inside.

ah? !

This time he was really shocked.

 Because the picture in front of him was not only familiar, but he even took it out and looked at it every now and then. Want to see from the details what exactly you need to prepare for your accommodation environment?

 He took the earphone and thanked him, and then asked curiously: "Is this anchor famous?"

 “Qiaoqiao?” The girl said “ah”: “I thought you were an old fan of Qiaoqiao! It turns out you just know him...”

“Well... to be objective, Qiao Qiao is not famous, because the live streaming platform he is on does not have that much traffic.”

“But if we talk about fan stickiness and purchasing power, I feel he must be a well-known anchor.”

 “Anyway, I will go wherever Qiaoqiao goes.”

 Fan stickiness? Purchasing power?

Chen Yuan asked subconsciously: "Does he usually make a living by bringing goods?"

The girl's originally cheerful expression suddenly collapsed. :

 “It would be great if he could live by carrying goods.”

“You can take a look at his online store, and there is nothing there! In the past, there was no limit to tea, but for 10,000 yuan a catty, who would drink it? I’m still wondering who is this kind of person who is being taken advantage of?”

“Fortunately, I am still a long-time fan. I only bought Honey once. I bought it because it was not easy for him. But after I bought it, I didn’t know how to seize the opportunity to look at other products..."

“Unknown tea, the packaging is very ordinary...but these are all methods to confuse people! I doubt he doesn’t want to sell it at all!”

The girl was extremely depressed: "Ever since I bought a trial pack, do you know that feeling? My heart is broken, and I just hate that the person who took advantage of me is not me..."

The other party’s words are so thick!

 Chen Yuan was listening to the live broadcast in his headphones and her chattering, and the CPU in his brain was almost burning up.

Fortunately, I finally figured something out. I took out my phone and searched for the online store where [Pastoral Notes] was broadcast live.

At a glance, there are quite a lot of things inside. Tea, honey, white fungus, dried cowpea, chili sauce, soy beans, watermelon sauce, chickpea...

 Very diverse, everything is included.

 But the price above is too shocking—all 9,999 yuan? !

 Does everything cost 10,000 yuan?

 Chen Yuan frowned, and now he clicked on a link, only to see a few eye-catching characters on the blood-red background map on the details page:

　　【Don't buy it, don't buy it! If you buy it, it won’t be shipped. We will cancel it if you buy it! No goods, really no goods! 】

 The sales volume is 0, but the reviews are densely packed, and everyone is eager to show pictures of the products. There are thousands of them in the Q&A area.

Everyone was praising the product and shouting, wishing the shop owner would read the comments and give them another chance.

These days, is online shopping live streaming so crazy?

Chen Yuan doesn’t quite understand.

Before he could understand, Qiaoqiao in the live broadcast had already held up the camera and walked around the room, while the girl sighed:

“Hey, I, Qiao Bao, am so honest. I have to tell you something, even the fact that the bed board is only 1m2... This dormitory is really spacious. Food and accommodation are included. I cry with envy just thinking about it..."

Um?

 Chen Yuan didn’t understand a little.

He looked at the girl beside him. Although the girl was dressed casually, the workmanship of the fabric was not that cheap, right?

 It’s not like you’re envious just because of this, right?

He hesitated and said: "The anchor Qiaoqiao just said that the salary is 4,000, living in a dormitory and eating in a canteen. Do you think it is good?"

"Please!" The girl looked at him: "What otherworldly words are you talking about? In the environment of Qiaoqiao's family, you are already very happy if you have food for free, okay?"

“And their village has its own way of farming. The arrowroot powder I bought from that village is much better than what is on the market. My mother was very proud of it.”

"And in the village, as long as you don't spend money in vain, life is really happy. Unlike me, the salary is quite high, but the rent is half of it. It's not possible without renting. I can't catch the subway every day. An hour or two..."

The girl sighed, then held up her cell phone and started posting messages without any hesitation.

 Chen Yuan took a look and found that what was written was—

　　【Ah ah ah Qiao Bao, are you still recruiting people? My aunt wants to go there too! 】

 Aunt? !

Chen Yuan didn't quite understand the sense of identity of Yun Yang's children. At this moment, he looked at the girl next to him again and felt that the girl was really good at looking good!

But as soon as the barrage was sent out, it was lost in the same overwhelming barrage.

 Chen Yuan suddenly became curious.

 He thought for a while and asked curiously: "Which live broadcast platform is this? I'll check it out next."

 “Okay! Come and let me teach you!”

 The girl was very enthusiastic about Amway, especially when the other party picked up Amway on the spot, which made her feel full of accomplishment!

 …

Here, Qiaoqiao walked out of the factory holding his mobile phone, and then went to the canteen to take a look.

Zhai Xiaofeng and her daughter usually stay in the dormitory, but the mother and daughter cook in the kitchen during the holidays. Not only do they keep the account books clearly, but they also keep the kitchen clean and tidy every day.

At this moment, I opened the door and walked in. In the huge canteen, the disinfection cabinets were polished to a shiny finish.

The rows and rows of tables and chairs were deserted, and even the floor looked increasingly bare.

Looking at the stainless steel stove in the kitchen through the transparent glass, it is also clean.
