"This is the latest version of Win98 system, newly released this year. Compared to the previous system, it is easier to operate and has a better visual experience. Give it a try. If you don't know how to use it, I'll teach you while I'm still here."
Lin Yizhou checked it and found no problems, so he let Liu Zi try it.
Although the equipment wasn't very good, Liu Zi could still perform the basic operations.
She quickly created a new notepad on her desktop, wrote a line of text, and then tried to print it.
Lin Yizhou was almost dumbfounded by her hand speed. Had this woman used it before?
He seems even more capable than the salespeople in Brother Li's shopping mall.
"The machine is nice, how much is it?" Liu Zi didn't have high demands; she just wanted it to help her with her writing.
"The package price is 18,000." Lin Yizhou raised his chin smugly.
"It's alright, I'll get the money for you later." Liu Zi nodded, having no objection to the price.
"By the way, where are the printer paper and CDs I asked you to bring?"
She rummaged through the bags next to her but couldn't find it.
"..."
Liu Zi didn't hear anything, so she turned around.
Xiao Linzi stood there awkwardly.
"I'll bring it to you next time."
"Fine, I'll go myself. Just tell me the address of Polaris." Liu Zi knew she couldn't push her luck; she couldn't possibly treat Detective Lin like a mere errand boy.
"Sigh, if only the mall could deliver." Liu Zi missed the convenience of later generations, where these things could be ordered online and delivered in two hours.
"You want home delivery for buying such a small amount of stuff?" Lin Yizhou thought this woman was delusional.
“You’re wrong about that. I may not be in a huge shortage, but at the same time, is everyone in Beijing short of it? If we could focus all these people’s needs together and deliver them all at once, it would be a huge amount.” Liu Zixiao shared some of her ideas about online shopping malls with him.
Lin Yizhou thought about it and felt that her idea was quite unique.
"Then what should we use to focus on everyone's needs?" Lin Yizhou realized the key.
"Rely on it!"
Liu Zi patted the computer in front of her.
"The people who can afford computers now, apart from those used by relevant organizations for office purposes, are mostly wealthy individuals. They are the main consumers of this type of electronic product and also the main customers that Polaris targets."
"You mean using shopping websites?"
“No, the things inside are hard to distinguish from the fake, people won’t believe it.” Lin Yizhou shook his head.
“What if this website address is promoted through Polaris stores? With the endorsement of Polaris stores, I believe 80% of consumers will agree.” Liu Zi is not letting Polaris rely on other shopping websites, but letting it operate itself.
Lin Yizhou pondered in silence, and he felt that Liu Zi's suggestion was feasible.
He just didn't know about the costs involved. He'd better tell Brother Li about it when he had the chance and let him make his own judgment!
At noon, Liu Zi stayed at Lin Yizhou's house for lunch. In addition to the delicious braised pig tongue, there were also oat noodles that Aunt Zhang specially made for Lingzi.
Lingzi was completely unaware of the situation. Upon seeing the steamer basket on the table, she excitedly jumped into her grandmother Zhang's arms.
The little girl had only taken two bites when she noticed that another pair of chopsticks were eating much faster than her.
She turned her head and met a pair of dark eyes. The two looked at each other in silence, but after realizing what was happening, they both quickened their pace.
Aunt Zhang looked at Lingzi with some concern. This girl ate too fast today. These oat noodles are hard to digest, and she'll get indigestion soon.
"Lingzi, eat slowly."
"But if I eat slowly, this uncle will eat it all in a little while," Lingzi said, feeling wronged.
Lin Yizhou choked and started coughing.
Liu Zi thought this guy was too shameful, actually competing with a child for food, he was so pathetic.
“Lingzi, your uncle is a guest. He’s here to help out today, so we need to treat him well. Also, you’re not in good health, so eating too much will make you indigestion. If you want more later, Grandma Zhang will make it for you.” Liu Zi used this opportunity to give Lingzi pointers on table manners.
Aunt Zhang nodded in agreement.
Lingzi thought for a moment, then looked back at the direction of the inner room before obediently nodding.
"Okay, I'll eat it next time."
"So obedient!" Aunt Zhang praised from the side.
Lin Yizhou suddenly felt that he was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to eat or not.
Forget it, this girl can be taken advantage of anytime, but he can't. Let's focus on the immediate benefits first!
So, under Lingzi's envious gaze, Lin Yizhou ate the rest of the food.
Liu Zi was completely dumbfounded.
After the meal, Lin Yizhou took his leave.
"Are you home tomorrow? I'll bring the things over to you." Lin Yizhou felt obligated to help, so he decided to deliver them again tomorrow.
"No need, I have something to do in the city tomorrow, I'll just go to Polaris to get it myself." Liu Zi couldn't possibly trouble Lin Yizhou, who was always so busy.
"Fine, then I won't bother with it."
The security situation around Polaris is pretty good, so Liu Zi should be fine going there on her own.
"By the way, what are you going to Beijing for?" Lin Yizhou asked casually before getting into the car.
"I've found a run-down house that I like, and we've already arranged to sign the contract tomorrow," Liu Zi said.
"A run-down house? You're short of money?" Lin Yizhou asked, puzzled.
Liu Zi rolled her eyes at him and told him about the house.
"I'll check it out for you when I get back today and see if there are any other problems. I'll call you tonight." As soon as Lin Yizhou finished speaking, he knew that he had done Liu Zi's work for free again today. Why couldn't he control his mouth?
"Then I'll believe you," Liu Zi said with a grin.
Buying a house is a big deal these days, and having more people ask around means more security, so of course she wouldn't refuse.
Lin Yizhou dared not answer carelessly anymore. He got into the car and fled as fast as he could.
Liu Zi was surprised that the boy was running so fast. Had something happened?
The next morning, Liu Zi took her relevant documents and went out.
Lin Yizhou called last night. He had inquired with the relevant personnel at the housing management bureau and there were no problems with the house.
That's why Liu Zi felt at ease taking her bankbook to pay the money today.
Liu's parents were already waiting for her at the alley entrance, and they walked in together.
Years ago, the Liu family also lived in a large courtyard house. It was only after Liu Daqiang got a promotion that they were able to move into an apartment building.
Mr. and Mrs. Liu were still somewhat puzzled that their daughter wanted to come back and buy a house here again.
When they arrived at the location, the agent opened the door, and Liu's mother, Xu Mei, nearly fainted upon seeing the scene in the yard.
“Zizi, tell your mother if you don’t have enough money. Your parents have some savings that we can help you out.”
“Mom, what are you thinking? It’s easier to rebuild a dilapidated house! The approval process is simple, and there are policy supports. As for those houses that others have rebuilt, they’re too ugly, I don’t like them,” Liu Zi explained.
"Mom, don't you think this place has a pretty big yard? After the house is built, I want to plant some flowers in the yard, build a swing for the two kids, and put a small stone table over there." Liu Zi thought it sounded wonderful.
