103 Jiangcheng
Gao Qinghe came out of the bathroom and was not surprised to see Huang Yanqiu standing outside the door.
The system had just told her what happened at the door.
After Gao Qinghe washed his hands, the two of them exchanged glances and walked to their seats, one in front and the other behind.
Huang Yanqiu had two bags in front and behind her, one contained the luggage of two people, and the other contained the government bonds bought for 50,000 yuan.
They were not heavy things, so Huang Yanqiu didn't feel anything when carrying them by herself.
She looked at Gao Qinghe who was walking in front of her. He was wearing a loose navy blue shirt, black trousers, sneakers, his hair was tied in a low bun, and he wore a gray baseball cap.
If someone else wore this outfit, they would be completely inconspicuous in the crowd.
But Gao Qinghe dressed differently.
She stood straight, revealing a long, fair neck, a perfectly pointed chin, and endearing light-colored lips.
Huang Yanqiu looked at her, then looked down at herself. Wearing clothes of similar style, she really looked like Cinderella.
She's attracting so much attention, why not just put her in a sack and cover her up? Huang Yanqiu thought with a bit of jealousy.
The two of them were gone not long, but when they came back their seats were occupied.
Gao Qinghe said nothing and motioned Huang Yanqiu to go up.
Huang Yanqiu yelled directly: "Is this your seat? Why are you sitting there randomly? Get out of the way!"
The little girl looks young, but she acts like a shrew.
The two people who occupied the seats knew they were in the wrong and left while cursing in low voices.
Gao Qinghe took the train thousands of times, holding the bag that Huang Yanqiu threw back to him and closing his eyes to rest.
Huang Yanqiu was very excited. This was her first time taking a train and she found everything interesting.
The eighteen-year-old girl was at a lively age and was chatting with the people sitting next to her.
It was not until the train, which had been running for six hours, stopped that my raging curiosity was satisfied and calmed down.
It was time to get off the train. Gao Qinghe and his friend stood close to each other and followed the crowded crowd out of the train station.
The bright neon lights of the big city crashed in with a strong dreamy color.
Huang Yanqiu opened her eyes wide and murmured softly: "So beautiful..."
It was just getting dark, around 7:30 in the evening.
The restaurants and shops next to the train station were full of people, and the sidewalks were crowded with bicycles, motorcycles and tricycles shuttling back and forth.
The system beeped several times. If it hadn't reminded him, the thief would have reached into Gao Qinghe's bag long ago.
Gao Qinghe just wanted to leave this chaotic place as soon as possible.
Huang Yanqiu also recovered from her initial excitement and began scanning the surrounding area for any suspicious figures like an eagle.
Jiangcheng is a city that is more prosperous than the provincial capital in the southwest. It is developing rapidly, has many new things, and people's living conditions are close to the level of the early 21st century.
Gao Qinghe bought a local map at a newsstand, and the two sat at the bus stop to look through it while collecting the voices of locals coming from nearby.
Just as I was about to find a hotel near the nearest bank, someone nearby shouted in panic:
"My wallet is missing! Has anyone seen my wallet?"
As they were shouting, there was a sudden loud noise of glass bottles breaking from the alley behind the bus stop.
Huang Yanqiu's nerves were tense and she pulled Gao Qinghe away.
She had already noted the location on the map, turned left and right, and stopped in front of a bank.
The bank was closed at night. According to Huang Yanqiu, there was no need to stay in a hotel. Just sleep in front of the bank.
However, she was not the one who made the decision, so she could only follow Gao Qinghe and stay in a small hotel nearby.
The room costs 18 yuan and comes with a private bathroom where you can take a hot shower.
"I thought such a nice environment would be more expensive than where we are."
Huang Yanqiu took off all her clothes and stood in the bathroom, sighing while testing the hot water.
Gao Qinghe first checked the doors and windows of the room, made sure there was no problem, and put the bag on the bedside table.
Wen Yan smiled and replied, "This is the advantage of big cities. The bigger the place, the more competition there is, but the cost of living and traveling is actually lower."
Of course, the subsequent skyrocketing housing prices in Jiangcheng are not included.
In his previous life, Gao Qinghe had not been to Jiangcheng many times, only about five or six times.
I went straight to the shopping mall as soon as I landed at the airport. My understanding of the city was very superficial.
But she knew that breakfast here must be mixed noodles.
The next morning, after having breakfast at the breakfast shop downstairs, the two waited at the bank door.
As soon as the bank door opened, Huang Yanqiu immediately asked how much the treasury bonds were worth today.
The staff member replied: "Today's price is 105 yuan, the same as yesterday."
As he was speaking, a small blackboard appeared, and it was indeed 105 yuan.
The teller thought the two wanted to buy it, so he told them that the interest rate was higher than that of deposits and recommended that they hold it for a long time as it would appreciate in value.
Unexpectedly, the white girl behind the black girl came forward, put her schoolbag on the counter, and said in a calm voice:
"We want to redeem it."
The teller immediately noticed an unusual smell and asked tentatively, "How much?"
Gao Qinghe opened the zipper of his backpack. "Everything."
All the treasury bonds purchased with 50,000 yuan were in there. Because they had been sorted, every hundred bonds were bundled into a stack, so it looked like there were more than five stacks.
"Can I exchange it?" Seeing that the teller was a little stunned, Gao Qinghe asked again.
The teller nodded and motioned for her to put it in through the small window.
"Manager Zhang!" The teller called over a man who looked like a leader, and the two of them calculated the treasury bonds together.
The final exchange amount was determined to be 53,025 yuan.
"Please confirm the amount and sign if it's correct."
After Gao Qinghe signed, the teller took out the briefcase where she kept her money and handed her more than 53,000 yuan.
Seeing the two girls stuffing the money into their bags and leaving calmly, the teller and the manager looked at each other, both a little shocked.
The popularity of the "ten thousand yuan household" has not yet passed.
Someone actually sold more than 50,000 government bonds!
The two people who seemed calm were no longer calm after arriving at the temporary hotel.
Gao Qinghe was happy that he had made the right bet. He checked each banknote over and over again, smiling every time he looked at one.
But this wasn't her final destination.
Next she has to go south, where the prices in Shanghai are the highest.
She also knew that the area with the lowest price was in Huicheng.
But just in case, I went downstairs and bought several newspapers to study in advance.
As for Huang Yanqiu, she was still shocked that she had earned three thousand yuan in just four days.
“Why does it feel like money is falling from the sky?”
Gao Qinghe thought, this is just the beginning.
"Check if there's anything I've missed, and let's go."
Gao Qinghe put the bag full of cash in front of him and motioned Huang Yanqiu to check it.
After they packed up and checked out, Gao Qinghe's pager on his waist rang.
She picked it up and saw that it was Jiang Baohai looking for her.
I was so happy today that I forgot to call him. It's only afternoon and he's already been calling like crazy.
Gao Qinghe hurriedly called him back at a nearby phone booth, told him his next destination, and hung up.
The two took a taxi to the train station and bought tickets for the next train to Shanghai.
The 4pm train arrives at 11pm.
