Chapter 128

The school building is bathed in sunlight, and the air is filled with the smell of fresh paint.

Chen Lanjun walked up the steps, with the corner of her long white skirt swaying slightly. People passing by couldn't help but look at her twice.

"Hello, I'm here to report." Chen Lanjun knocked on the office door, introduced herself confidently, and took out the materials she brought from her bag.

The middle-aged woman wearing black-framed glasses took the registration card and looked her over: "Welcome, Comrade Chen, I am □□, the secretary of our branch. Have you brought all the documents?"

"I have brought almost everything. Secretary Cai, please check if there is anything missing."

Secretary Cai checked it and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll take you to transfer your organizational relationship first."

As soon as they left the room, the other teachers in the teaching and research section stopped what they were doing and started talking:

"This is Chen Lanjun who reported last."

"She really came on the last day of registration."

"It seems a bit aloof."

Nowadays, everyone basically holds the concept of "once you join the company, you are colleagues for life", and they are very concerned about each other's situation. Chen Lanjun was the last one to report, and she was also good-looking, so her colleagues were particularly interested in gossiping about her.

When Chen Lanjun was filling out various forms for collecting family information, a few curious people came into the archive room to do some trivial things, but their eyes were actually glancing at Chen Lanjun.

When I saw the parents' household registration form, a colleague asked, "Hey, are you a local? Then why did you register so late?"

"I guess I'm a new local," Chen Lanjun said. "My parents' household registration was moved here from the countryside two years ago."

"Is it a job transfer?"

"I bought a house." Chen Lanjun said lightly.

The listener was not so calm: "Is it the kind that comes with a household registration? That's very expensive!"

"Yes, I have a sister in Hong Kong."

"Ah, no wonder."

After getting the information he wanted, the man went out contentedly with a file in his arms. Chen Lanjun knew without even looking up that he must have gone to share the gossip with others.

She curled the corners of her mouth unconsciously.

I think new colleagues will soon know her workplace personality. Someone in her family lives in Hong Kong, she is very capable, can afford to buy a house and move her parents' household registration here, and she is also a graduate of a prestigious university. This kind of personality is a bit of a background, but not to the extent that people are afraid of it. It is most suitable for people like Chen Lanjun who also want to do a "side job".

Knowing that her family has some background, some work will not be easily piled on her, which is good.

After completing the formalities, Chen Lanjun's household registration was changed to "Pengcheng City", but there were also conditions: she had to work in the school for at least two years. The oil and grain and other material receiving books were also replaced. According to the grading, Chen Lanjun's monthly salary was 68 yuan per month, and the school provided accommodation, but it was a three-person room.

After hearing this, Chen Lanjun said that she would not stay in the dormitory for long because her home is here. If the school's housing is tight, this dormitory can be allocated to others.

Secretary Cai felt comfortable hearing this. She was a principled person and believed that everyone should work hard for the development of the school and not hinder it. There were also students who had local accommodations in the school, but they still had to take up a place for accommodation so that they could store their belongings. She was impressed by people like Chen Lanjun who took the initiative to say that they didn't need to worry about accommodation.

When they saw the restaurant, Secretary Cai took her to the cafeteria to get food - using Secretary Cai's meal ticket.

"It's your first meal here, I'll treat you."

The first day Chen Lanjun came, she didn't bring a lunch box, so the chef in the staff canteen served her food in an enamel pot, with a layer of rice at the bottom and shredded potatoes, braised pork and winter melon on top.

While eating, Secretary Cai briefly introduced the situation to her. As an undergraduate, her main job now is to be a teaching assistant for the professor, familiarize herself with the class process, prepare for a basic course, and take care of the students. She will officially start school and work next Monday.

After getting familiar with the environment, Chen Lanjun left the campus, hailed a taxi, and left in a hurry.

The taxi stopped in front of a bank, and her cousin Zhao Hong had been waiting for her inside for a long time.

There was a man chatting with Zhao Hong, wearing a large gold chain around his neck and dancing with joy. Chen Lanjun walked over and heard a few words: "... that's much faster than a bank loan."

"What are you talking about?"

Zhao Hong turned around and smiled: "Finally he's here. Let me hear this guy talk about how he got rich."

The man nodded and bowed: "Hello, hello."

Chen Lanjun smiled but did not respond. She dragged Zhao Hong towards the counter and whispered, "That man is probably from the casino. You must not get involved with him."

"Of course, anyone who gambles is a fool." Zhao Hong said nonchalantly.

As they were outside, Chen Lanjun couldn't speak directly, so she just nodded and went about her business.

After the dividends arrived, the balance in her personal account had reached 980,000 yuan, which made her a "rich lady". After she showed her passbook, someone immediately invited her into the office and provided her with special service.

This time she came to withdraw money to buy a house, which was not far from her parents' community, a newly built commercial community for mainland residents. She bought a house of more than 50 square meters and planned to live in it herself.

Firstly, the original house was too small to accommodate her. Secondly, she also hoped to live more comfortably. After arriving in Pengcheng City, she finally had some free time and wanted to sleep in, but her parents still maintained the habit of getting up at five o'clock, moving stools, boiling water, and calling outside to fetch coal... It was always easy to wake people up.

So she decided to withdraw 80,000 yuan from her account and buy herself a house.

The location is relatively close to the city center, and it is convenient to go to Pengda or the railway station to the border.

After paying the money and getting the key, I opened the door and found that the house was bare and had no furniture. It was definitely uninhabitable.

Let’s go home and eat.

Xixi is going to primary school, and Fengjun has taken her back to Hong Kong and will come back on weekends.

Chen Zhisheng was waving a spatula in the kitchen, while Zheng Mei and her younger sister were sitting on the sofa watching a movie. When they heard the key turning, they all turned around. Seeing that it was Chen Lanjun and Zhao Hong, her younger sister immediately said, "Look, second sister, there's a sports advertisement playing."

Chen Lanjun came over and took a look. On the color TV was a scene showing the Fourth Food Factory busy shipping products. The person on the screen was Tong Tong, who had changed into a suit and was talking about his achievements in "athleticism".

As she watched, she took out a can of Sports Energy from the refrigerator, opened the pull ring with a "click", and drank the drink.

With a can of sports energy, the meal was almost finished. Seeing that everyone was almost full, Chen Lanjun said solemnly: "Our family is now a little rich, and I want to remind everyone that you should not touch pornography, gambling, or drugs."

It is also time to remind your family again and again to stay sober.

This is an era where it is easy to get rich. If you catch a good opportunity, you may become rich overnight. But being rich is just the beginning. Once you become rich, some people with bad intentions will target you like prey.

Chen Lanjun has heard of several examples where someone suddenly became rich, and then he or his children were lured by some brokers, or spent huge sums of money at the gambling table, or took things they should not have tried. The word "rich" actually became a collar around the neck, dragging the entire person or even the entire family into the abyss.

Her tone was very serious: "If any friend wants to take you to gamble, buy lottery tickets, or do something illegal, that friend is definitely not a friend, but a bad person."

She rarely spoke so harshly to her family, so the family members present took it to heart and said that they would never follow bad customs.

After hearing the assurance in person, Chen Lanjun picked up her chopsticks again and ate a piece of roast duck with sour plum sauce.
