Chapter 234, Section 233: Recruiting People Again
After a friendly discussion with the dormitory supervisor, the staff of Buynow Computer Center were finally allowed to bring their computers into the dormitory.
In fact, Jiang Xia could assemble it himself, and he even bought a complete machine, which only required plugging in a few cables to use it normally.
He was just worried that if he received a defective product, such as a faulty monitor, an unresponsive mouse and keyboard, or frequent blue screens or black screens, he would let the people at Buynow handle it themselves. Even if there were problems, it wouldn't be his problem; he would only need to inspect the product.
As a result, many freshmen saw that Jiang Xia bought a desktop computer the day after the report, and it was even Lenovo's latest model, so they couldn't help but cast envious glances at him.
It's good to be rich.
It took about half an hour to complete the computer installation. The system is a genuine Windows XP, and it runs very smoothly without any lag.
The installers even included two cracked versions of large-scale single-player games as a bonus, so you could play them when you didn't have internet access.
"Brother Jiang, you didn't go out this afternoon just to buy a computer, did you?" Zhou Zijian clicked his tongue, as a programmer, he was extremely envious.
He doesn't have a computer himself, and if he wants to run a program, he can only go to the school's computer lab for now. He might buy one in a while.
"Hmm...more or less." Jiang Xia nodded slightly. He couldn't very well say that he actually went to visit the startup base.
This is terrifying for a college freshman.
"Brother Jiang, how much did you pay for this computer?" Zhao Ning asked.
He's been considering whether to buy a computer lately, torn between a desktop and a laptop for a long time. Logically, a laptop would be more convenient for a programmer, but laptops with the same specifications are expensive!
"It's a little over six thousand. It's a new model, so it's a bit expensive. If it were an entry-level model, it would be cheaper and enough for daily study. But I have certain requirements for graphic design, so I decided on this one," Jiang Xia said seriously.
He wasn't showing off at all; after all, the computer was his work tool.
"It is indeed a bit expensive." Zhao Ning nodded in deep agreement.
"Um... I won't set a password for the computer. Everyone can use it freely in the future, but I only have one requirement: you can only do things related to studying, and you can't play games."
"Wow, Brother Jiang, from now on you're my real brother!" Zhou Zijian was extremely excited. This solved his immediate problem, and he no longer needed to run to the server room so often.
Zhao Ning was overjoyed. Having a Su Ma and a Jiang Ge in the dorm was amazing.
Su Qing chuckled and said, "Old Jiang, aren't you actually Jiang's mother?"
"No, no, no, this was just a small favor. You should take the place of 'Mom'." Jiang Xia looked at the group and smiled. "So, I'm recommending Aunt Su as the room leader. Does everyone agree?"
Zhou Zijian and Zhao Ning: "Agreed!"
Su Qing looked helpless; how did he become a member of the "Mom" generation?
After getting the computer sorted out, Jiang Xia went to the student community service center to apply for campus internet. It's said that Tsinghua's broadband is the best in the country, but I don't know if that's true.
After filling out several forms, Jiang Xia was told that the internet would be available the day after tomorrow. He didn't mind, since many drawing software programs could be used normally without an internet connection.
After finishing these things, he called his wife: "Baby, are you ready to eat?"
"Hmm, where are you?"
"I'm in the student community."
"Okay, I'll be right down."
A few minutes later, Jiang Xia waited for his wife downstairs. She seemed to have just taken a shower, as she carried a faint fragrance of lavender, and her cheeks were slightly flushed.
"What would you like to eat?" He skillfully took his wife's hand, gently sniffed it, and then kissed her fair and tender hand.
Lin Yanwan felt a little itchy, but after being with him for so many years, she had long been used to his hands and feet. As long as he didn't hug, kiss, or touch her inappropriately in public, she let him be.
"Something light, please. I don't have much of an appetite."
Jiang Xia nodded and walked towards Taoliyuan Restaurant with his wife.
At this time, there weren't many people in the cafeteria. Lin Yanwan only ordered a bowl of white fungus soup, while Jiang Xia ordered a bowl of beef noodles.
He was eating when he suddenly noticed someone.
Lin Yanwan followed his gaze and saw a fat man carrying a bag with a large bowl of fried rice in front of him. She asked in a low voice, "Do you know him?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Yes, he's a classmate. He was the last one to arrive at yesterday's class meeting, and I remember him quite well during his self-introduction."
His name is Luo Peng, nicknamed Fatty Luo. He said he wanted to find a few like-minded friends to achieve something great in the animation industry.
Jiangxia is currently lacking precisely this kind of talent.
"Baby, wait for me a moment, I'll go ask."
He sat down with his bowl of beef noodles. Luo Peng looked up and thought he looked familiar.
"You...you are..."
“Jiang Xia, we just met yesterday,” he said with a smile.
"Oh, right, I remember now, you're Brother Study, hello, hello, my name is Luo Peng."
Jiang Xia's face darkened: "What the hell is 'Study Bro'?"
"Didn't you say you came to Tsinghua for only three things: to study, to study, and to fucking study?" Luo Peng chuckled.
Jiang Xia was immediately at a loss for words, so he decisively changed the subject.
"...Why are you only eating now?"
"Oh, it's nothing much. I went to a publishing house this afternoon to submit my manuscript, but it was rejected again." Luo Peng couldn't help but sigh as he said this.
