Chapter 323 Don't Go on Vacation
Once people develop a hobby, it’s impossible to keep the money in their pocket.
Professor Zhu's daily life is to save money for several months and spend it in one second. One bracelet costs him half a year's salary.
If during this period, he also sold two items that he didn't like so much and recovered some money, he could barely make up the 500.
Lin Xiangnan put the bracelet back into his pocket and said with a smile: "I'll give you two months. If it's too long, I won't be able to guarantee you anything."
"Okay. It's okay to sell it in advance. You have a lot of good things anyway, and I can exchange them for other things later." Professor Zhu said in a relaxed tone.
There are some beautiful things that he likes and wants to buy, but Professor Zhu doesn't have any obsession. There are so many things he wanted to buy but didn't buy, and even if he is not used to this feeling, his wallet will make him get used to it.
Professor Zhu has always been open-minded. For example, for this tourmaline bracelet, he didn't have enough money to buy it, but if any of his friends wanted to buy it, he would take the initiative to take them to find Lin Xiangnan to buy it.
He didn't buy many things from Lin Xiangnan, but his friends bought quite a few.
Similarly, Lin Xiangnan also bought a lot of good things from them, focusing on orderly circulation.
"Professor Qian from the school next door has got an authentic painting of Su Shi. Would you like to go and see it?" Professor Zhu invited.
Lin Xiangnan refused, "I can't go. I have to go to work tomorrow."
Hearing this answer, Professor Zhu sighed regretfully again. He had advised Lin Xiangnan to change his major several times before, but unfortunately, Lin Xiangnan remained unmoved.
Later, after learning about Lin Xiangnan's performance in the department, Professor Zhu began to advise him less.
He admitted that Lin Xiangnan was talented in mathematics, but smart people are talented in everything. If he transferred to their department, Lin Xiangnan would also be a genius.
Unfortunately, Lin Xiangnan slipped away quickly after finishing the class. She was obviously a scumbag who would throw away her after using her.
Lin Xiangnan was only slightly sincere about the major he had chosen. Not only did he review before the exam, he also expected to get first place.
Not only Lin Xiangnan, but also his former classmates have high expectations for Lin Xiangnan.
When Zhuge Yongkang caught Lin Xiangnan attending classes in other departments, he said, "Class monitor, where have you been? Have you reviewed? Hurry up and review. You've been abroad for two months and wasted so much time. Don't let others catch up with you!"
"Class monitor, your grades are not just your grades, they are also our face!"
"That's right. Don't let others suppress you. It's more uncomfortable than others suppressing me."
It is better to have only one mountain in front of you than to have many mountains in front of you. It is enough to have Lin Xiangnan as a target, and it would be too discouraging to have more.
In the past, classmates were afraid that Lin Xiangnan would lose, but now, classmates are afraid that Lin Xiangnan would win.
Who doesn’t want to be the best? I may not be the best in every subject, but I must get the best in the subject of my tutor.
Ding Yougui and Wei Dongliang started to roll with each other in front of Lin Xiangnan.
Lin Xiangnan was a little confused. "Is it because I don't read enough books that I gave you some false impression? You obviously can't compete with me for the first place."
If she didn't have a thorough understanding of the knowledge points, how could she dare to ask Lin Xiangnan to substitute for the class when Professor Wang was busy before. This alone shows that Lin Xiangnan's progress is indeed ahead. When I borrowed Wei Dongliang's notes before, I also read other teachers' courses.
Ding Yougui covered his ears and said, "You are ruining my moral integrity. I don't like what you said. Take it back."
Lin Xiangnan glanced at him speechlessly, then turned to Wei Dongliang and asked, "When will you go home after the holiday?"
"I don't know. It depends on the teacher's arrangements. If something happens, I will stay in Beijing for the New Year." Wei Dongliang said indifferently.
"I'm almost there," Ding Yougui agreed, "It would be great if I could go back a few days before the New Year."
Hearing their answers, Lin Xiangnan put on a mask of pain on her face. She said, "You can study hard, but don't waste your vacation." She wanted to give herself a short vacation.
"There are only two years when we can have winter and summer vacations. Why don't you cherish them? For interns like us, we can't help much if we stay in the institute during the New Year, so why bother?"
The three of them were talking about the winter vacation when a researcher came with a serious expression to notify everyone to hold a meeting.
At the meeting, everyone was scolded.
"If we continue at this pace, what else can we catch up with? I have issued this notice for a long time, and some of you have issued military orders. After working on it for so long, this is the result? This is a very important task, and you take it so seriously..."
Except for a few big guys who had status and were not scolded, everyone else was scolded by the leaders one by one.
Fortunately, this is a stable job. If I were to work in a private company in the future and get scolded like this by the boss, everyone would have to submit their resumes on the recruitment software that night...
As soon as the leader got angry, Lin Xiangnan and the other interns lowered their heads and pretended to be quiet, saying to themselves, "Don't look for me, don't look for me, we are just interns..."
It’s okay to be scolded a few times in private, but it’s really embarrassing to be scolded in a meeting with so many people.
Just when Lin Xiangnan was worried, her name was suddenly mentioned by Professor Wang.
"Xiao Lin has been performing well recently. Starting tomorrow, you will be my assistant. Get familiar with the job first, and then take over everything after you finish your final exams."
Lin Xiangnan was not scolded, but was given clear arrangements by Professor Wang.
In addition to Lin Xiangnan, Professor Wang also assigned tasks to other researchers. The leader said at the meeting that "some people" had issued a military order, and this "some people" refers to Professor Wang and his group of bigwigs.
The leader dare not scold this group of people and can only give them reminders in a tactful way.
In fact, not only the leaders are anxious, but Professor Wang and others are also very anxious, and they all hope to get results quickly.
The project that the institute has spent the most energy on recently was the one that Lin Xiangnan memorized and copied out by hand. She also followed the entire inspection and exchange trips to England, France and Germany. She has her own advantages and is a perfect fit to be Professor Wang's assistant.
Having worked for decades, Professor Wang had long forgotten what winter and summer vacations felt like. She also forgot that Lin Xiangnan even had winter vacations.
You've already entered graduate school, and you don't want to stay up late, but you want to take a long vacation? What good things are you thinking about?
The atmosphere at the meeting was not very harmonious. Lin Xiangnan hesitated for a long time, but in the end he did not dare to open his mouth, for fear of being scolded as soon as he opened his mouth.
Huang Xiaogang and his people's scolding service couldn't help her scold her boss. She really couldn't scold him.
