Chapter 022 Counter-offer

At the moment, her luggage only has two bags in total.

A yellow satchel given by Gu Qia, and a sack she brought from Daming Village. In the satchel were some documents, and in the sack were two changes of clothes.

The ten yuan she brought out went to Jinling all the way and cost her three yuan and seven cents. Later, Lin Zhengqing gave her another ten cents. Now her total property is six yuan and four cents.

This scumbag father thought he had arranged a smooth road for her, but he didn't even leave a dime behind when he left.

He is indeed a hardworking man... Huh? Not a chicken?

Lin Siwei took out a stack of plastic meal tickets from his pocket.

This was a ten-dollar meal ticket bought for her by her father at the logistics office when she started school. However, Lin Siwei felt that he was paying for the meal ticket in front of Xie Baosheng. The scumbag didn't want to lose face, so he paid for the ten yuan. I guess I will have to kneel down and explain to Liu Yuxiu when I get home.

Lin Siwei's sense of crisis was relieved immediately. Ten yuan of meal tickets could be used in many ways. And according to Xie Baosheng, the technical school has a subsidy of six yuan a month.

Not to mention in the city, technical schools are also quite popular. For families in need, not only do their children not have to spend money to study, but they also receive subsidies and are assigned jobs, which is really great.

She placed the sack on the iron bed board, but still carried the yellow satchel on her back. Then he shook the thermos bottle, and the water in the half-filled bottle made a squeaking sound. When he opened the stopper, he saw that there was no steam coming out.

We didn’t get any water this morning.

Lin Siwei shook his head and planned to fetch water. He just picked up the thermos bottle and put it down again when his heart moved.

The roommates in this dormitory don't seem to be diligent. I am a newcomer, so I shouldn't be too proactive, otherwise I will become a dumpling with words engraved on my face.

Lin Siwei thought for a while and went downstairs to find the dormitory aunt.

The dormitory aunt was over sixty, with gray hair and a little deaf. She played the radio very loudly. Lin Siwei shouted "Auntie" three times in a loud voice before she stretched out her head and turned down the volume of the radio.

"Aren't you a classmate who just came here? Have you found the dormitory?"

"Yes. Auntie, let me ask you something. Do you know any classmate who has old bedding? I will collect one."

The dormitory aunt looked at her: "You No supplies? Your parents didn’t prepare

anything for you? My parents say it is true, but they say it is not true.

Lin Siwei was inconvenient to explain: "I thought the school had prepared it, so I didn't bring it with me..."

"The school is a place for teaching, and it doesn't care about the bedding." The dormitory aunt murmured, "How much... do you pay for the meal tickets? "

The dormitory aunt has already looked at this new classmate. From the angle of her sitting in the window, she can only see Lin Siwei's old clothes that have turned white after washing, but not the red leather shoes on his feet. From this look, he looks like he is in the countryside. Girl, there's nothing interesting about it.

"One dollar." Lin Siwei said.

The dormitory aunt suddenly laughed: "Classmate, do you know how much it costs to buy a quilt? One yuan, just pick it up from the trash."

Lin Siwei was very sure. While she was talking to the dormitory aunt, she had already swept the small room in the window. On the cabinet, there are about ten porcelain drinking vessels, most of which are missing. There are nearly twenty pairs of shoes under the bed, all kinds of leather shoes, cloth shoes and Jiefang shoes, in various sizes.

This aunt is very good at picking things up. It would be unscientific for her not to pick up some quilts to cover her bed.

Lin Siwei said: "One dollar is a lot. Many people's daily wages are less than one dollar. Besides, I don't want a new one, I just want it to be cleaner."

"One dollar and fifty cents, I will help you get a bed." The dormitory aunt said My heart is moved. " Auntie

, actually my family... forget it, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. One and a half dollars is too expensive, so I can't do it. I'll go and ask other classmates. Maybe someone just wants to throw it away, so they give it to me."

Aunt Guan suddenly felt that a business deal was about to run away. If any classmate really gave her a bed, she would get away with the dollar.

You must know that the state only issued regulations last year to encourage self-employment. In the minds of most people, private individuals are still not allowed to do business. Even the famous crime of "turning the tables" will not be lifted until fifteen years. The dormitory aunt picked up so many second-hand goods, but she actually didn't dare to sell them for fear of being arrested.

After passing this village, there is no such shop.

"One dollar and two cents." The dormitory aunt waved her hand, as if she had made some important decision, and she looked very heartbroken.

Lin Siwei hesitated: "But... two cents is my day's meal..."

"It can't be lower. If you don't want it, just leave. You can go with whoever you want." The dormitory aunt is also smart.

Lin Siwei thought for a while: "Auntie, if I pay one yuan and two cents, can you give me the porcelain vat as well? And the lunch box..."

Negotiation is an essential skill for a salesperson. How can a dormitory aunty Withstand her calculations.

Lin Siwei returned home with a full load. Not only did I choose the best quality quilt and bed, but I also picked out a tin lunch box, two enamel teapots, two pairs of chopsticks, two spoons, five soap heads, and a brand new towel issued by the school. Haven't used it yet.

By the way, I also became friends with the dormitory aunt, and helped her scold her daughter-in-law for not being a thing.

Lin Siwei didn't know her daughter-in-law anyway.

After returning to the dormitory, I made my bed and put my personal belongings back into place. Student life finally took shape.

Lin Siwei looked at her bed with satisfaction. It was the best time since she traveled to this world.

Just as I was sighing, I heard the school bell ringing. get out of class is over.

It has only been a few years since the Grain Technical School resumed enrollment. During those years, many students were dawdling. Formal teaching has only begun in the past few years. Even so, it is not like the learning atmosphere of high school.

Not long after the bell rang, I heard the sounds of chaotic footsteps, boys shouting, and girls gossiping and laughing.

A group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls walked past the window, looked at the unfamiliar Lin Siwei curiously, and shouted downstairs: "Xu Yi, there is a new classmate in your dormitory."

Then a man with a ponytail and glasses ran in. When a girl saw Lin Siwei, she asked, "Who are you? Are you new here?"

"Hello, my name is Lin Siwei, I just transferred here."

"Which si, which wei?"

"'Siwei' who is prepared for danger in times of peace. The girl laughed: "

I thought Rose Flower's Wei was also a boy's name like me. My name is Xu Yi."

It is indeed a boy's name. In this day and age, not many girls are given such names.

Xu Yi looked at the iron bed frame by the window and found that the bedding had been laid out. He smiled and said, "Oh, it's all done. We only have three people living in the dormitory, so we knew the school wouldn't be so kind and always want to stuff things for us. "Full."

"Who's stuffed?" Another sharp voice sounded, and a thin girl with a pale face came in.

"Xiao Huiyu, this is Lin Siwei, the new kid in our dormitory."

Xiao Huiyu looked at Lin Siwei: "We are already in the third grade, and there are new classmates here. It's really strange."

Somehow, Xiao Huiyu's look and tone reminded Lin Siwei of Liu Yuxiu , they are so similar, they have a common aura.
