After careful consideration, Shi Jin looked at the courier who was happily sorting out the order and asked, "Can I refuse these express deliveries?"
The courier's hand froze, looked at him, and suddenly pressed his forehead with his head tilted, sighing worriedly.
Shi Jin: "...What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." The courier shook his head and sighed, "Of course these express deliveries can be refused, but because these are international express deliveries, you know, right? Generally, express deliveries that are refused will be returned to the sender, you know, right?" Shi Jin was confused
: "Then return it, do you need me to pay the postage?"
"Come and take a look at the place where these express deliveries are sent first." The courier waved at Shi Jin.
Shi Jin walked over inexplicably, his eyes scanned the mailing information on the express delivery slip, and his expression gradually became sour.
"You've noticed, these express deliveries are not sent from the same place. This sender is really amazing. He actually calculated the logistics speed of each region and this place, and managed to squeeze all these express deliveries into one day. If you refuse to accept them, will there really be anyone who will sign for them when they are returned to the place? This person who sent the express to you seems to be... well, running around the world." Shi Jin
was silent, thinking of Fei Yujing who started to travel around the world again after dealing with things in Country L. He couldn't help but sighed worriedly, stretched out his hand to the courier boy, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Give me the order. I'll take these express deliveries."
...
Liu Yong and Luo Donghao were grabbed by Shi Jin and came to the school gate to help him transport the express deliveries. After hearing about Shi Jin's plight, Liu Yong even brought a small cart for transporting sports equipment from the sports equipment warehouse.
The three of them grunted and loaded the parcel onto the cart, and then, under the curious gazes of the students passing by, they passed through the playground, the cafeteria, and the teaching building and delivered the parcel to Shi Jin's dormitory.
Shi Jin's roommates were all in the dormitory. After entering the door, Shi Jin pushed the cart to the wall and said to them a little embarrassedly, "Sorry, it may take up the public area for a while. I will send these things to the custody room after I organize them. They won't be kept for too long."
The roommates said that it was nothing, and their eyes swept back and forth on the cart behind Shi Jin, with curiosity and a little subtle emotion in their eyes.
They all knew that Shi Jin's birthday was coming up. On Sunday, when they returned to the dormitory, they ate the cake that Shi Jin had specially left for them. The cake tasted good, but what was even better was the pile of gifts that Shi Jin had piled on the bed. With just a quick glance, they saw a lot of things that interested them in the pile of gifts, such as game consoles, game discs, limited edition albums, etc. At that time, Shi Jin was "dividing the spoils" with Liu Yong and Luo Donghao, and had no intention of inviting them to join in. It's not that they wanted those things, but they felt a little weird being treated differently by Shi Jin.
Then at noon today, Shi Jin signed for several super cool gun models. It was said that they were birthday gifts sent to him by his brother, the instructor who led a class during military training. Boys like gun models. They were really jealous, but they were too embarrassed to go up and play with them. In the end, they could only watch Liu Yong and Luo Donghao playing with the models at Shi Jin's invitation.
Now, Shi Jin actually received another express delivery, and a lot of it.
It was probably a birthday present from somewhere... People are really different. The young master who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth is too far away from ordinary people like them - they couldn't help but have such thoughts in their hearts.
The atmosphere in the dormitory was a bit weird. Liu Yong and Luo Donghao looked at each other, ignored them directly, and took the initiative to ask for permission to help Shi Jin open the express delivery. Shi Jin also wanted to sort out these things quickly, so he kept them to help.
There were more than a dozen express parcels, and three people each opened a few, and soon they were all unpacked. The largest box was indeed filled with books, but unlike the hard and high-end books that Shi Jin thought, it was filled with picture books, from various countries and regions with various painting styles. The only thing in common was that each of them was very exquisite.
"Wow, these are simply works of art." Liu Yong carefully opened a picture book that was as big as two A4 papers, and was amazed. "I can't understand the words on the cover. What country's language is this? But if you just look at the pictures, the content seems to be easy to understand. This... well, this seems to be telling the story of a small tribe's sacrifice."
Shi Jin was also a little surprised. He touched these picture books and thought of the famous specialties and special items that Fei Yujing bought from various countries and gave to the original owner. He felt a little subtle.
It was still different. The gifts given by Fei Yujing now were obviously more thoughtful. Fei Yujing in the past would not specially collect picture books from so many countries and pack them together to send them together.
He suddenly understood the idea of Fei Yujing's choice of giving these picture books. In every region, the things that best represent the local culture are definitely the art treasures such as books, music, and historical stories passed down by ancestors. Picture books, which do not have too many words and tell stories with pictures, are very useful cultural communication tools, so even people who do not understand the local language can roughly understand the content.
Is that what he thinks? Is Fei Yujing such a careful person?
"This big box only contains such a small lamp?" Luo Donghao suddenly said, and took out a small glass lamp tightly wrapped with cotton balls and newspapers from another box filled with foam and shockproof cotton.
Liu Yong heard the sound and looked over. When he saw the lamp, he exclaimed in surprise and said, "This is the lamp in the picture book! The lamp used for sacrifice in the tribe. The book says that as long as you sleep under the lamp for seven days, the lamp god will fulfill a wish of the person who lit the lamp."
Luo Donghao: "Ah? Really the same?"
"Exactly the same, look, the gemstone beads, the lamp face with seven different patterns, the lamp post entangled with the flower of destiny... This seems to be a switch, twist it." Liu Yong pointed to a flower bud on the base of the glass lamp.
Luo Donghao looked at Shi Jin and asked, "Is it okay?" Shi Jin looked
at the exquisite and ancient glass lamp in his hand, stood up and walked over, stretched out his hand and twisted the flower bud.
With a click, the glass lamp lit up, and the gemstone beads inside began to rotate. The light passed through the seven different colors of the lamp surface, illuminating seven hazy abstract paintings. Music came from the lamp, and the soft rotating light and the pictures on the lamp surface seemed to be telling a distant story.
"... So beautiful! This gift is so great, it's like sending a legendary story from a foreign country to you. Shi Jin, who gave you this gift? The creativity is so great!" Liu Yong was very excited.
Luo Donghao thought of something else, glanced at the other boxes that had been opened, and said, "The things in these boxes can't all be drawn in the picture books."
Liu Yong was stunned, then immediately squatted down and began to look through the things in the other boxes.
An hour later, everyone in the dormitory was staring blankly at the various exotic items spread out on the table, unable to find words to describe their feelings.
"It all actually matches up. There's a music disc attached to the back of each picture book. The story has become reality." Liu Yong murmured, looked at Shi Jin, and asked, "Who gave you these gifts? This person is so... so romantic."
Romantic, a person like Fei Yujing who puts profit above all else would actually be praised as romantic one day.
Shi Jin's mind was a little blank. Looking at those exquisite picture books and the corresponding gifts, he said, "The person who sent the gifts is my second brother. He... because of his job, he always travels around the world, so he can buy some more interesting things."
"These things can't be bought just because you want to." Luo Donghao regained his sanity a little and said objectively, "Things like this that can almost be called works of art can't be obtained without putting in some effort. Especially that glass lamp, the gems used on it are all real, and the shape is also very old. It feels like a collectible from somewhere."
"Maybe." Shi Jin was a little distracted. Some things in his mind wanted to overflow, making him absent-minded. After realizing this, he was startled and pinched himself to clear his mind. He shook his head to get rid of the memories and emotions that wanted to surge out, looked at Liu Yong and Luo Donghao, and said with a smile, "My second brother always gives me useless things, and I have to organize a cabinet for them. It's too troublesome."
Liu Yong couldn't stand it and rushed over to strangle him, saying enviously, "Don't be ungrateful for what you have. Such a great gift, others want it but don't want it. "How many brothers do you have? There are already quite a few of them!"
Shi Jin begged for mercy, saying, "Not many, only five... All right, I will appreciate these gifts with a grateful heart. Help me put them away. I have to transport them to the care room."
Liu Yong howled exaggeratedly when he heard this, muttering that the artworks should not be thrown into the care room. He let go of Shi Jin, stepped forward and carefully put all the things on the table back into the box.
...
Shi Jin slept a little uneasy that night. He had a dream. In the dream, he slept under the lamp for seven days, successfully saw the blurry face of the lamp god, and then made a wish devoutly.
"To be with my brother and dad forever."
A child's earnest wish echoed in his mind. Shi Jin opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for a while before sitting up. He took out his mobile phone to check the time. Seeing that it was almost time to get up for morning training, he wiped his face, threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
At noon, Shi Jin was called out by the security guard again.
"Hey, courier, you are in class and the phone can't be reached, so I will sign for the courier for you."
The security guard was very kind, but Shi Jin felt a little broken in his heart.
There were several boxes again, and the sender was Shi Weichong. Shi Jin didn't understand. In the semi-closed environment of the mental hospital, how could Shi Weichong prepare gifts, and several boxes!
Liu Yong appeared out of nowhere, holding a small cart in his hand, and grinned at Shi Jin: "I knew you came to the door to pick up the express. Look, I pushed the cart out for you."
Thank you, you are such a thoughtful friend.
Shi Jin silently put the express into the cart.
...
After returning to the dormitory, Liu Yong rubbed his palms and said with interest: "Okay, let's see what kind of birthday present Shi Jin received today! Come on, birthday star, you open the first box!" Then he stretched out a utility knife in front of Shi Jin. Shi
Jin's eyebrows twitched, took the knife, dragged the box closest to him over, and opened it casually.
"Is this... a notebook?" Liu Yong was puzzled.
"Obviously it's a notebook." Luo Donghao, who came to help halfway, answered affirmatively. Shi
Jin was stunned for a moment, picked up the top soft-leather notebook, opened it and took a look.
Liu Yong tried to move closer, and seeing that Shi Jin did not stop him, he cast his eyes on the title page with only one line of words, and read: "Chen Xiaodi, Shi Weichong... Wait, why does the name Shi Weichong sound familiar to me?"
Luo Donghao also frowned, then thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Shi Jin in disbelief: "You, you are Rui--"
Shi Jin already knew that things were going to be bad, and seeing this He quickly closed his notebook, put his hand on Luo Donghao's shoulder, and said, "There are still several boxes here, you can help me unpack them all."
Luo Donghao quickly shut up after receiving the hint, glanced at Shi Jin's roommates who were looking at this side vaguely in the dormitory, silently swallowed the words that surged to his throat, and knocked on Liu Yong who was still thinking about the name of Shi Weichong, and diverted his attention with other topics.
The boxes were quickly unpacked, and Shi Jin counted the things inside, and found that the things sent by Shi Weichong could be roughly divided into three categories: knowledge, wealth, and connections.
Shi Weichong probably learned from Lian Jun that Shi Jin was studying business management, so he specially sorted out some practical books and personal experience notes and sent them to Shi Jin, and recommended several good management courses to Shi Jin. Each course was accompanied by detailed introduction materials and instructor information, indicating that if Shi Jin was interested, he could contact these instructors at any time, and they had already made arrangements.
In addition, Shi Weichong also sent a report on the income of the fund that the five brothers had set up for Shi Jin, and sent part of the income along with the report as a birthday red envelope.
Finally, Shi Jin found a thick stack of information in the box containing the report. It was the information of all the subordinates that Shi Wei Chong needed. Now these subordinates were scattered in the branches and departments of Ruixing to work for Shi Wei Chong, and now, Shi Wei Chong sent their information to him. Shi
Jin thought of something, picked up the notebook he had started with, and turned to the first page.
[In addition to the most basic things in managing a company, the most important thing to learn is how to manage people's hearts.
Over there, Liu Yong was flipping through a management book that looked very difficult at first glance, and he said stupidly, "Oh my God, there are notes in all these books, and the key points are marked so clearly, so attentive... Shi Jin, are you planning to inherit the family company after graduation? These are all management books..." Shi Jin 's
roommates were also stupid, looking at the pile of things on the table, and for the first time they realized so deeply that Shi Jin was different from them. What Shi Jin was exposed to every day and was destined to have in the future were things that they might not be able to get even if they struggled all their lives. Those rumors are too stupid. Shi Jin actually has much more than those jealous rumors say. Moreover, Shi Jin himself is so outstanding, and there are countless people training him to be even better... He is not someone to be envied at all. Shi
Jin closed the notebook with a bang, and looked at the things in front of him, and his palms slowly tightened. Knowledge, wealth, connections, and even life experience, Shi Weichong is pouring all the resources and efforts in his hands onto him little by little. This is not a birthday present, this is simply a dedication of his entire life! After staying in the hospital for so long, and recuperating for so long, is this all he has learned and figured out?
He suddenly felt very angry, angry at Shi Wei Chong and also at himself. But he soon realized that this emotion was wrong, frowned and let out a long breath, and began to organize these things, preparing to put them all in the custody room.
Liu Yong and Luo Donghao recovered from the shock of this "high-profile" birthday gift, and saw that Shi Jin was about to put these things in the custody room, so they hurriedly held his shoulders one by one.
"Don't put these in the after-school care room." Liu Yong looked at the books filled with notes and said, "These things are too heavy, it's better to carry them with you. You, you sort them out and lock them in your own cabinet."
Luo Donghao also nodded and said, "Some of the information in here is very important. It will be bad if it is lost or damaged. You should lock it with you." Shi
Jin was forced to stop moving. He frowned and looked at the handwritten notes in the box. He adjusted his mood and let go of his hand: "...Then I'll listen to you."
...
Shi Jin fell asleep in trepidation that night. When he woke up the next morning, he was stunned for a while, then he breathed a sigh of relief and got up from bed - he didn't dream, and no messy memories came up, so good.
During the morning training, Shi Jin noticed that people around him kept looking at him from time to time, and they were obviously discussing something. He frowned, suppressed his doubts, and after the morning training, he found Liu Yong and Luo Donghao and went to the cafeteria with them.
"Why do I find that everyone is looking at me? Is there a mess outside because of those couriers?" Shi Jin asked Liu Yong while making porridge.
Liu Yong snorted coldly and said, "It's all your roommates' fault. They spread a lot of rumors. Now everyone in Class 2 and Class 3 knows that you received a lot of expensive gifts on your birthday. Oh, don't worry about it. They just found out that you are really a walking golden boy, and they feel uncomfortable and awkward."
"What do you mean by golden boy? Can you talk?" Shi Jin teased him and realized that it was indeed the couriers who were causing trouble. He felt both clear and upset.
"By the way, your birthday is today, right? Will there be any more couriers today?" Luo Donghao asked casually.
Shi Jin's expression froze when he heard that. He calculated in his mind and found that except for Rong Zhouzhong who sent him a birthday present in advance, the remaining four brothers, Shi Weichong, Fei Yujing, and Xiang Aoting, had already sent gifts. Now only Li Jiuzheng had not made any move.
But Li Jiuzheng probably wouldn't send any, after all, that guy had really picked up a weapon and wanted to kill him directly, although he gave up later and even changed his attitude to show him goodwill...
"Probably no more." He said without much confidence.
Liu Yong and Luo Donghao looked at him at the same time, and then understood instantly - probably, that means there will probably be more.
...
Under the lively eyes of Liu Yong and Luo Donghao, after class in the morning, Shi Jin's mobile phone rang.
"Courier?" Luo Donghao asked.
Liu Yong asked excitedly: "Are you going to push the cart?" Shi
Jin looked at the flashing caller's name on his phone, was stunned for a moment, shook his head at them, and said: "It's not a courier, it's my fifth brother."
...
Shi Jin trotted to the school gate and saw Li Jiuzheng standing outside the guardhouse. He frowned and walked over quickly, asking: "Why are you here?"
Li Jiuzheng was dressed like an ordinary college student this time, wearing a dark brown coat and black jeans, with a black bag slung over his shoulder, and half of his face buried in a scarf, looking gentle and harmless. When he saw Shi Jin coming over, he first looked up carefully at Shi Jin in his uniform, then smiled and said, "Happy birthday, Xiao Jin."
Shi Jin frowned at his smile and asked, "When did you come to City B? Have you had lunch?"
Li Jiuzheng said seriously, "The school doctor here is a relative of my master." "What?" Shi Jin
was puzzled.
"I asked him, and he said that your class has no class in the first period this afternoon, and the lunch break is longer... So can you arrange to go out temporarily? The elder brothers asked me to celebrate your birthday well, and asked me to at least take you out for a big meal." Li Jiuzheng asked, because his appearance was naturally non-aggressive, so when he spoke in a soft tone, it was inexplicably a bit of a coquettish and pleading flavor.
Shi Jin got goosebumps all over
his body and asked, "Did the big brothers ask for it?" "Well, they all have things to do and can't go back to City B, so they asked me to do it." Li Jiuzheng replied. Seeing that Shi Jin's neck was bare, he thought of something and hurriedly lowered his head to take out a scarf from his backpack. He stretched out his hand to help Shi Jin carefully wrap it around his neck and said with a smile, "Here, a birthday present."
The scarf was very soft. It was probably because it had been by Li Jiuzheng's side for too long, and it was slightly stained with his scent. Shi Jin was a little stunned. He raised his hand to touch it, and then he found out with a frown that the scarf he was wearing was the same style as the one on Li Jiuzheng's neck.
"I'm not very good at choosing gifts. Don't you like this one?" Li Jiuzheng asked a little nervously when he saw that his expression was not right.
"...No, this one is pretty good." Shi Jin answered, and in his heart he really thought that this scarf was pretty good. After being bombarded by all kinds of expensive and heavy gifts from other brothers, this scarf was so ordinary and normal that it was touching.
"Are we going to have dinner?" Li Jiuzheng asked, gesturing outside the school gate.
Shi Jin thought about it, and finally accepted his invitation because of the scarf and Li Jiuzheng's ears that were frozen red waiting outside. However, he was very careful. After accepting the invitation, he immediately reminded Xiao Si in his heart to pay attention at all times. Once he showed signs of being stimulated by Li Jiuzheng's memory or emotions, he should immediately burst into tears, even by quacking like a duck.
Xiao Si: "..."
Not only that, he also called Lian Jun and told him that he was going out to have dinner with Li Jiuzheng.
After all the arrangements were made, he took the permission slip he had asked his counselor for and followed Li Jiuzheng out of the school gate.
Li Jiuzheng led Shi Jin to a low-key black car and asked Shi Jin, "Do you like it?"
Shi Jin was afraid that he would take out a key and hand it to him, so he quickly said, "I don't have a driver's license and can't drive, so I don't know much about cars. I can't tell whether a car is good or bad, and I can't say I like it or hate it."
Li Jiuzheng looked at him sideways, took out a key from his pocket, unlocked the car, got in the car first, and whispered, "Oh."
Shi Jin: "..." He seemed to hear the sound of a boy's heart breaking.
