Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

Chapter 694 Generous Payment

"A small department, located in central Shandong."

"..."

After Su Ya said that, Gong Qian was completely at a loss.

"Your grandfather is..."

People in the capital know that many high-ranking figures have children who aren't very successful at work. Therefore, Gong Qian believes that it must have been Su Ya's grandfather's generation that made them important figures.

"No, my grandfather is just an ordinary person. These were all given to me by my partner."

"Your partner?"

Su Ya nodded, smiling without saying a word.

Gong Qian asked again, "Which department in the capital does your boyfriend's family work for?"

"No, they're all in central Shandong. His grandfather was a farmer, and his parents were factory workers."

This has left Gong Qian speechless once again. With family backgrounds like that, she's not even as well off as an average person in the capital. Seriously, she has absolutely no sense of superiority.

Su Ya placed a small bag in front of Gong Qian and said, "This is a token of your grandfather's appreciation. If it's not enough, just name your amount and I'll have the bank prepare it."

Upon hearing this tone, Gong Qian thought, "This isn't some big shot from a wealthy family; he's practically a nouveau riche!"

"You're from the west, aren't you?" Gong Qian asked again.

"No, it's in the east, in central Shandong."

"Is there a mine in Shandong?"

"There really is one, Zibo Mining, it's quite famous locally?"

"I knew it!" Gong Qian breathed a sigh of relief. But the problem was that their family's wealth didn't guarantee the old man's intervention.

Just as she was thinking about how to politely refuse, Su Ya said, "My family doesn't have a mine, and neither does my boyfriend's family."

"So what do you have at home?"

“My family doesn’t have much, but the family across the street has factories, several factories.”

At this moment, Yang Na, who had been silent until now, interjected, "The rice business was founded by his boyfriend."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gong Qian put the small bag in her hand and quickly changed her expression, saying, "I'll take the money, but I don't know if my grandfather will help. If he doesn't, I'll give you the money back, but I have a small request."

"Tell me, I'll definitely help you if it's within my power." Seeing that the other party had accepted the money and was making further requests, Su Ya felt relieved.

"Get me a complete set of rice-themed home appliances. I've heard there are smart ones; I want the whole set."

"No problem." Su Ya readily agreed. The rice smart home appliance set was something others couldn't get; it was just a matter of a word from her.

In front of Gong Qian, he immediately took out the latest model of DaMi's mobile phone and called Xing Baohua's first secretary, who was now in charge of DaMi's technology business, including agents and direct-sale stores in various regions.

"Oh, there's one in the capital! Okay, I'll go with my friend this afternoon. It would be best if you told the manager. Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Su Ya said to Gong Qian, "Let's go to the rice flagship store to pick up the goods after we finish eating. They happen to have two sets there. Just tell us if you need anything else."

"I mean the whole set, including the phone and stuff."

"Take whatever you like, and when it comes to food, order whatever you like."

Yang Na stood to the side, her face full of envy. She wanted to say something, but she was too embarrassed to.

Su Ya noticed her little trick and said with a smile, "Yang Na, thank you for introducing me to Gong Qian. You can pick anything you like wherever you go. A cell phone or a tablet is fine."

"Really, thank you so much. Actually, I've been wanting to save up to buy a phone, but I just couldn't manage it. Thank you so much this time."

Perhaps Su Ya's generosity made the two people opposite her feel good about her, but Su Ya knew that while it was easy to get a phone, the cost was not something everyone could afford. Calls and phone calls cost 60 cents per minute, which was not something everyone could afford.
