Chapter 193: Passerby A in a 1990s Housewife Rebirth Novel (Part 2)
The last sentence was said by the proud and arrogant Wang Xuan. Jiang Yue glanced at her and was glared at in return. Jiang Yue smiled and saw that Wang Xuan was about to jump up and down, so she quickly looked away. After resting for a while, the group went to the class teacher's office together, where the class teacher handed out their graduation certificates to each of them.
After leaving the office, the four roommates walked around the school together and took some photos. At noon, they had a farewell lunch. There was so much reluctance to part. Jiang Yue hugged Xu Qing and Liu Xiao, and after seeing them off on the bus, only Wang Xuan and Jiang Yue remained.
When Wang Xuan's driver came to pick her up, Wang Xuan walked up to Jiang Yue and handed her a piece of paper. Jiang Yue opened it and looked at it, and then heard Wang Xuan say, "This is my home phone number. If you don't have any food, remember to call me. I'll find you a cleaning job. Anyway, you're so clean."
Jiang Yue put away the note and smiled. Then she took a few steps to face Wang Xuan. Seeing Wang Xuan's uncomfortable expression, she reached out and hugged her, then whispered in her ear, "Thank you."
After letting go, Jiang Yue looked at Wang Xuan's blushing face. Wang Xuan took two steps back and stammered, "Who...who...who cares about your thanks? I'm just worried that you won't be able to afford food and will have to beg on the streets. If people find out that we went to the same school and were even in the same dormitory, they'll probably laugh at me to death."
"And why did you hug me?"
"I'll hug you if I want to."
Hearing Jiang Yue say that, Wang Xuan glared at her angrily. Just then, her driver got out of the car and opened the door for her. Wang Xuan got into the car and saw through the window that Jiang Yue was still standing there waving goodbye. The car slowly started moving, and after it had gone some distance, Jiang Yue saw Wang Xuan stretch out her arm to say goodbye.
Jiang Yue smiled as she watched this scene. After waiting a while, the bus arrived. Jiang Yue picked up her bag, boarded the bus, found a seat, and began her journey home.
It took her forty minutes to get home. After getting off the bus, she carried her things home and walked into the alley. She ran into acquaintances one after another, and they all greeted Jiang Yue warmly when they saw her return.
After walking for a while, she arrived at the gate of her own yard. As she entered the yard, she almost bumped into a child running out. Everyone who saw Jiang Yue greeted her as she walked in: "Xiao Yue is back! Did you get your graduation certificate?"
"You're back. What's Auntie doing?"
"Hey, what can I do? Sew shoe soles. You're graduating soon and will be looking for a job soon, right? What kind of job are you planning to look for?"
"It's not certain yet. We'll see what we can find and do it. There's no rush."
Everyone has to ask about job hunting. If there were a trending topic right now, it would definitely be: "How's it going with your job search after graduation?" Jiang Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief after weaving through the crowds and closing the door at home. It's just like when you get home and are questioned by the aunties on the street. Even though Jiang Yue has experienced so much in the world, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
After drinking a glass of water, Jiang Yue opened the bag and put her things away. Jiang Yue's current house is only about 30 square meters. This was the house that her father was allocated when he was working. After tidying up, she lay on the bed to rest for a while before starting to think about what kind of job to look for. Although Jiang Yue has money and can support herself without working, it's not right to live here and not do anything while having money to eat and drink.
Jiang Yue thought and thought about finding an easier job, not wanting to be as busy as a dog like in the last world. After thinking for a long time, she found it really hard to find one. She had never worked as a civil servant, but now there was a wave of layoffs, and many people in government agencies and public institutions were busy taking unpaid leave to make money in the private sector. Moreover, the restrictions within the system were too great, which was not suitable for Jiang Yue.
The best thing to do is to find a way to make money without working. After being busy for several worlds, can't she enjoy life? Nowadays, it's popular to go to the south to make a living. Jiang Yue can also give it a try. Jiang Yue remembers that the female lead in the world's story went to the south to buy land and made more than three million in one go. She can also try it, make a deal or two and buy a small courtyard. And who knows how much money she made after she came back.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Yue found a newspaper and looked at it. She then discovered the stock market information, checked the world's plot, and memorized several stocks the female lead had bought. Seeing that she had plenty of time and was staying home anyway, she grabbed some money and set off. (The stock market information is purely fictional.)
Jiang Yue still had some savings, totaling over 20,000 yuan, which was a lot these days. Part of it came from her parents, their pensions, and the money she earned working as a director for foreigners at the Great Wall during her university years. She had to admit that she was very grateful for the tipping system of foreigners. She could conservatively estimate that she could earn tens of dollars a day, and on holidays, she could earn up to 100 dollars a day.
After leaving, I took a taxi to the trading market. It was a bit deserted today, not as crowded as I had imagined. The trading market was on the first floor, with four glass doors. Inside, facing the main entrance, were rows of glass-enclosed counters. There were several computers in the hall, and many people were gathered around them.
Although Jiang Yue had never bought stocks in this world, she understood that the process was similar, since it was a world generated from the real world. She opened an account and bought some of the selected stocks. Actually, if she couldn't copy the homework, Jiang Yue had a way: she could just use the Bai Ze cheat. But if she could copy the homework, why bother with all that?
After leaving the stock exchange, Jiang Yue went to a nearby shopping mall. If you're going to speculate on land in the south, you have to dress presentably. After buying clothes, she went home. The stocks still had several months to roll over, and most of them wouldn't be sold until early 1996. Like the female lead, Jiang Yue didn't plan to wait until the peak; she was content with what she had.
When Jiang Yue returned home, her neighbors saw her carrying large bags and asked if she was going on a blind date. Jiang Yue smiled and made an excuse: "No, my classmate introduced me to a business opportunity. My classmate's family is planning to go south to do business with foreigners and they need a few translators to accompany them. She knows that my English is very good, so they gave me an advance of a month's salary to buy some clothes. These clothes don't look like those of a translator."
Several girls around Jiang Yue's age ran over and asked, "Xiao Yue, can we see what clothes you bought?"
"Sure! Feel free to look around, just don't get it dirty or damaged."
With Jiang Yue's permission, the group opened the bag and looked inside. Inside was a formal suit and two shirts. Buying clothes was just a cover-up; the clothes in the space were great, they could transform into whatever they wanted. Well, to be honest, Jiang Yue only realized she was broke when she got to the mall. She couldn't even afford a train ticket, so she could only pick out two clothes to make it look like a proper outfit.
