Lu Jiaxin told Nie Zhan about this idea and asked for his opinion.
Nie Zhan certainly supported it: "You have already mastered these contents, there is no need to waste time. Jiaxin, do you want to continue reading?"
"You mean the postgraduate entrance exam?"
Seeing him nod, Lu Jiaxin quickly waved her hand to refuse: "No, no, I won't study anymore. A university degree is enough for me."
I have barely managed to get through these two years and I don't want to continue studying. But I don't regret studying finance, because everything I learned will be useful in the future. As for graduate school, forget it, I've had enough of studying for so many years.
Nie Zhan found her like this very funny. She was reluctant to apply for fashion design when he suggested it, but she would have found it very easy to learn otherwise.
Lu Jiaxin said, "I wonder what preparations are needed to skip a grade?"
Nie Zhan touched her head and said with a smile, "You don't have to prepare anything. I will arrange it. You can just start your senior year when school starts."
Lu Jiaxin knew that his cousin's father was a school director: "Let's just follow the rules! I've studied hard and I'll have no problem with the exam."
I can’t guarantee that I’ll be exceptionally good, but I’m confident that I’ll have no problem passing the exam.
Nie Zhan had an idea in mind.
Thinking about what Master Xinyu said on the phone during the day, Lu Jiaxin asked, "Is Fu Ye getting engaged again?"
Nie Zhan didn't expect that she already knew, so he nodded and said, "Yes, his fiancée is the daughter of his father's old friend. They'll be engaged next Saturday and married at the end of the year."
I didn't expect it to be so fast. Lu Jiaxin said with a look of disdain: "Go early and come back early."
Although he didn't like Fu Ye, Nie Zhangan couldn't stop his long-time friend from interacting with him. Although the old saying goes, "If you keep company with a good person, you will be red; if you keep company with a bad person, you will be black," they were all adults and had their own choices and judgments.
Nie Zhan knew that Lu Jiaxin was reasonable, which was rare at this age: "Don't worry, I'll be back after dinner."
The next day, Lu Jiaxin called Yu Meitong and told her about it: "He is getting engaged next week. Do you know about this?"
Yu Meitong hummed and said, "I know. An old friend of mine told me yesterday and said I was too serious."
Hearing her low voice, Lu Jiaxin comforted her, "Don't worry about what they say. You know how your life is. Sister Meitong, you need to look forward and stop thinking about the past. Let's enjoy the beautiful future."
Yu Meitong burst out laughing and said, "Do you think I still miss him? How is that possible? I was relieved to hear that he was getting engaged."
"Then why are you unhappy?"
Hearing this, Yu Meitong became depressed again: "I want to go home to get my clothes and bags, but my mommy said my daddy told me not to go back. My clothes and bags are all brand names, and I can sell them for a lot of money at a second-hand store. Renting a house is inconvenient, so I want to sell these things to get a mortgage for a house."
It's okay if the room is small, but it's too inconvenient to share a room with someone. She likes to go to bed early, but her colleague often comes home late from dates and has different living habits. She can tolerate these, but she really can't accept her boyfriend staying over.
Lu Jiaxin didn't expect her to be so calculating now: "Didn't you say before that you would sell the necklace and use the money to buy stocks?"
"I bought it. It's increased by 10%! But I really can't live in this house, so I want to move to another one. Renting is inconvenient, and I feel more at ease living in my own house."
Lu Jiaxin gave her some advice: "Your dad only said that he would not let you go back, but he did not say that he would not let you take your clothes and bags. Ask your mom to pack your things and have the driver at home deliver them to you."
"If your mommy loves you, it should be fine."
Yu Meitong thought it was okay: "Although my mom values my two brothers more, she loves me too. She knows that I am poorly dressed and looked down upon by others, so she doesn't dare to give me money. But my clothes and bags are still delivered."
"That'll do."
Yu Meitong did what she said, and she called her mother to complain. The next day at noon, she received her clothes, shoes, socks and bags. As for the jewelry, it was withheld and not delivered.
Yu Meitong immediately took all the clothes and bags to second-hand shops to sell them, and used them to set up stalls if the shops didn’t want them.
After selling everything and getting the money, Yu Meitong called Lu Jiaxin: "Jiaxin, I remember you said you knew a real estate agent before, can you recommend one to me? I want to buy a second-hand house so I can move in directly."
Lu Jiaxin immediately thought of Bi Feiliang, but she didn't remember his phone number. She went upstairs to find the memo, found the phone number and told her: "I'll call him later and ask him to give you a preferential price."
Yu Meitong felt that it was just a second-hand house, so there was no need to waste Jiaxin's favor: "I told them that you were the one who introduced them. Those who understand will take the initiative to give discounts, and those who don't understand can change agents."
Who can do business without some skills? If you don't have this kind of sense, don't even think about making money. After entering Wufu Jewelry, she felt ashamed every time she thought about what she had said to Lu Jiaxin. She had worked at home for two months and knew about the design department, but she knew nothing about the operation of other departments. If she really opened a company, she would lose all her money.
Lu Jiaxin really felt that she had matured. This was good. It was better to rely on yourself than on others. "If you don't have enough money, tell me and I'll lend it to you."
Yu Meitong politely declined: "No, I sold more than 280,000 yuan of clothes and bags, and 300,000 yuan with the diamond necklace. I have become a regular employee and earn 6,200 yuan a month. The bank will lend money if I have a stable income."
"I plan to buy a small apartment of 300 to 400 square feet, with a budget of 600,000. I can afford a mortgage of 300,000, or about 2,000 per month."
Seeing that she had such a plan for the future, Lu Jiaxin was very happy for her. In order to make her feel more relaxed, Lu Jiaxin called Bi Feiliang and asked him to find a cost-effective apartment for Yu Meitong.
The next day Lu Jiaxin went to school to take an exam.
Before the exam, she thought the exam content would be easy, but it turned out that she overestimated it and the questions were difficult. Fortunately, she studied hard and her tutors were all experts, so she could basically answer all the questions.
The results came out very quickly that afternoon after the exam. Half of the subjects were A and half were B+. However, this result was very good, and she would have no problem going to the senior year.
Nie Zhan said: "The school intends to expand the library, you can donate some money then."
Lu Jiaxin agreed with a smile. As for how much to donate, we'll talk about it later.
In the evening, Yu Meitong called her to thank her. She had started to pay attention to the house price when she had the idea of buying a house. The price Bi Liangfei quoted was lower than the market price, so she knew at that time that Lu Jiaxin must have made special instructions.
Lu Jiaxin reminded: "Sister Meitong, please be careful when living alone."
She told Bi Liangfei that Yu Meitong was her good friend and should recommend a house with good security and property management. But as a single woman living alone, it's better to be careful.
Yu Meitong is not worried about this: "The house I bought has two rooms. I plan to rent out the other room, and the rent can just be used to pay off the mortgage."
She is the landlord. If a tenant violates the rules she sets, she can just evict him/her without having to swallow her anger.
