Zhang Yaoyao picked up the deposit slip that was handed out from the counter, handed it in again, and said sincerely.
"Hello, could you please help me withdraw this money? My family is in urgent need of the money. I don't want the interest."
The counter staff who was calculating on an abacus with his head down looked up at Zhang Yaoyao in surprise and asked in confusion.
"What? You don't want the interest, are you sure?"
People these days don’t have much spare money, nor do they have fancy ways to make money. They prefer safe deposits and earn interest. Most of them like to deposit their hard-earned money in the bank to earn some interest.
But he just heard something. This little girl didn't want interest and wanted to take the money directly.
The staff member picked up the deposit slip again, and then picked up Zhang Yaoyao's ID card to confirm that the depositor and identity information matched. He looked at Zhang Yaoyao again and confirmed again.
"This fixed deposit hasn't matured yet. It can't be used to calculate the fixed interest. Only a small amount of current interest can be used. Are you sure you want to withdraw this money?"
No matter how urgent the money is, why not borrow it from others? When the money matures, you can earn interest and return the money to others, killing two birds with one stone. Isn't this girl still young after all?
Of course, compared to the staff's regret and inquiry, Zhang Yaoyao said firmly.
"That's right, I want to withdraw this money. I don't want the interest on the fixed deposit, and I'll take whatever interest I can get on the current account!"
Seeing the little girl's determined look, the bank staff nodded.
"Okay, since you want to withdraw this money, I'll settle it for you. Don't regret it!"
Zhang Yaoyao: “…”
There are not so many regret pills to take. The staff nowadays are really kind, fearing that others will withdraw the wrong money.
When she came out of the bank, Zhang Yaoyao had 1,800 yuan and a small amount of current account interest in her pocket. Walking on the road with this money, Zhang Yaoyao's mind became active.
It is impossible to live off her savings. With only 1,800 yuan, she will starve to death on the street in a few months. The most important thing now is to find out the price of the shop. If the whole shop is open, with her eloquent mouth, she can at least ensure that she has no worries about three meals a day.
Having made up his mind, Zhang Yaoyao took a step forward and walked along the not-so-bustling streets of City A, starting his arduous journey to find the one he wanted.
As a result, after wandering around aimlessly for a while, Zhang Yaoyao found nothing when the sun gradually set. Most of the shops that Zhang Yaoyao thought were suitable were too expensive, and they had to be rented on an annual basis.
Although City A is not a first-tier city, the annual rent for a shop in a prosperous area is at least two to three or four thousand yuan. The eighteen thousand yuan in Zhang Yaoyao's pocket is only enough to pay for half a year's rent if she wants to buy a shop in a prosperous area. However, those shops in prosperous areas have to be rented on an annual basis, and the rent must be paid in one lump sum.
So, Zhang Yaoyao walked around for a while, but didn't find the shop, and instead got very angry.
As for why she was so angry, it was because Zhang Yaoyao used her eloquence to negotiate the price with several landlords of shops she liked. When the other party heard that she could only pay half a year's rent, they immediately went back on their word and refused to rent the shops to her. Some landlords even spoke to her with a sarcastic look on their faces.
"Wow, you can't even afford a year's rent, and you still want to do business in this area? You're just dreaming!"
Zhang Yaoyao was so angry that she turned around and left immediately. After several confrontations with such unscrupulous landlords, Zhang Yaoyao became numb and could only sulk by herself.
Who could he blame? It was his bad luck. Not only did he travel to the 1980s and 1990s, but he also traveled to a host with a terrible hand, and a poor loser at that.
Poor loser Zhang Yaoyao failed to find the meeting on the first day, and had to ride a broken bicycle back to the old and shabby house in the military compound in a dejected mood.
Pushing the bicycle into the military compound, it happened to be evening. The old ladies and young ladies in the compound gathered in the public washing area, washing vegetables, rice, and various household items. Seeing Zhang Yaoyao coming back from outside, everyone had a look of ridicule on their faces, and saluted in unison, looking at Zhang Yaoyao, who was pushing a broken bicycle and walking towards them. Among them, an unknown aunt spoke first.
"Oh, Lu Sinian hasn't even come back from get off work yet, but her little tail has returned first. How rare!"
It's no wonder that this old lady teased Zhang Yaoyao. On weekdays, if Lu Sinian went to the city on vacation to do business, Zhang Yaoyao would follow Lu Sinian on her broken bicycle, following him closely. She would not wait until Lu Sinian returned home before she would ride her broken bicycle back in a hurry.
No one saw Lu Sinian returning to the compound today. Instead, Zhang Yaoyao came back first. This was really a first move.
Otherwise, the little girl would have to wait until Lu Sinian returned home before following him back. She is really hardworking.
"Hahaha……"
As soon as the auntie finished speaking, everyone present burst into laughter, as if Zhang Yaoyao's appearance had given them a lot of spiritual nourishment, and they felt extremely happy.
"you……"
Zhang Yaoyao turned around and looked sharply at the aunt who had spoken earlier. The aunt raised her chin nonchalantly, as if to say, "I'm talking to you, so what?" Zhang Yaoyao suddenly withdrew her gaze and continued walking towards home, pushing her bicycle.
I recited it silently in my mind while walking.
"Don't bother with a bunch of old ladies. The more you talk, the more they'll make fun of you. It's all because of the original owner's previous incompetence."
With such self-comfort, the anger rising in Zhang Yaoyao's heart slowly subsided, and she completely ignored the harsh laughter behind her.
Looking at Zhang Yaoyao's back as she pushed her bicycle without looking back, Huang Pinting in the crowd fanned the flames unwillingly.
"Ah, Aunt Yu, I guess Zhang Yaoyao was scolded by Lu Sinian. She didn't even refute what we said."
In the past, when Zhang Yaoyao was teased by people in the military compound, she would shamelessly refute them and try to justify all her actions of throwing herself at Lu Sinian as pursuing love. But today she just left without saying a word, which was beyond people's expectations. It seemed that there was something different about this Zhang Yaoyao.
The woman known as Aunt Yu glanced at Zhang Yaoyao's receding figure, then glanced at the disgust on Huang Pinting's face that had not yet disappeared, and spoke slowly.
"If she doesn't want to refute it, then don't refute it. If she can't refute it later, I, an old woman, may not be able to win the argument with her. Pinting, you don't want Zhang Yaoyao to argue with me so that you can just watch the joke from the side."
