Honey asked in surprise, "Can't we make it public yet? No way, it's already 1978!"
Li Xiyue said, "This is right after the reform and opening up. We can't talk about these things now. In two years, having overseas connections will not only not be a disgrace, but will become a source of pride for our family!"
The wealth gap between our country and overseas countries is currently too vast. If someone has relatives overseas, even a small gift from them is something that ordinary people in our country cannot afford…
At this point, she sighed deeply, lamenting how weak the country's national strength was.
Ordinary people only earn forty or fifty yuan a month, and that's the income of workers. If it's an ordinary office worker, the income is only around twenty or thirty yuan a month...
But in this era, on the other side of the ocean, the average monthly wage for ordinary people is about $1,200.
Based on the exchange rate at that time, that's 5,000 yuan.
What does 5,000 yuan mean to people in this era?
It means that the money you earn in ten years is equivalent to what someone else earns in one month.
The money that someone else earns in a year is more than you could earn in a lifetime!
Li Xiyue said to Li Yin, "I can give you some living expenses, but I need to check the things first."
Li Yin said, "Of course. But I don't have those things with me; I have quite a lot of stuff."
Go east from the school, there's a wasteland there, and if I remember correctly, there's a small bunker in that wasteland. Let's meet there.
"Just give me whatever you think the items are worth; enough for my living expenses."
She humbled herself and spoke to Li Xiyue in a pleading tone.
Li Xiyue said, "Okay. Let's go in a bit."
Li Yin naturally didn't want to delay this matter any longer, so she readily agreed, "Okay, I'll go back and get my things now. We'll meet there at 9 p.m. tonight."
You know I'm covered in injuries, so I walk slowly. I'll go home to get my things and come back around this time.
Li Xiyue said, "Go back and get it now. I'll be there when the time comes."
Li Yin finally heard the answer she wanted. She walked down the stairs one step at a time, leaning on her crutches. She walked very slowly, her whole body was covered in injuries, and it hurt every time she walked. She herself didn't know how she managed to come to the dormitory to find Li Xiyue.
This is probably the power of hatred!
After watching Li Yin leave, Mi Bao said, "I'm going to see what tricks she's up to!"
Li Xiyue said, "Okay! Go ahead, but be careful!"
Mibao changed its skin to that of a little parrot, flapped its wings, and flew away through the spatial passage.
Du Guixiang stood at the top of the stairs, hands on her hips, and said angrily, "Why did you agree to give her the money? She's clearly extorting you! You should have called the police!"
Li Xiyue pulled Du Guixiang back to the dormitory and said in a low voice, "My family has relatives overseas. I guess her mother is keeping evidence that my family has relatives overseas. This matter cannot be made public yet."
Du Guixiang said, "So you have relatives overseas? I really can't say this! Otherwise, it would be bad if this affected your job placement after you graduate from university!"
Li Xiyue said, "That's exactly what I was saying. I'll go see what it is tonight."
Oh, by the way, the suit skirt I promised to bring you last time has been in this canvas bag of mine.
As she spoke, she picked up the canvas bag from the bed, opened it, took out the suit skirt, and handed it to Du Guixiang.
Du Guixiang jumped up with joy when she saw the suit skirt. This style was exactly the same as the one worn by the beautiful woman in the calendar!
She exclaimed excitedly, "Yue'er, you're amazing, amazing! Hahaha, my mom went to so many cooperatives and shopping malls but couldn't buy me this dress!"
Li Xiyue said, "Hurry up and put it on, let's go out to eat, I'll treat you to meat buns!"
Hearing about meat buns, Du Guixiang swallowed hard. "Great! It's been so long since I've had meat buns!"
She quickly took off her old clothes and changed into a beautiful suit skirt. Touching her smooth legs, she said, "It's such a pity I don't have those sheer stockings. My brother said that beautiful women abroad only wear stockings in winter!"
It's a pity they're not sold in China yet, otherwise they would look so good with my suit skirt!
She looked down at the white socks she was wearing.
These days, white socks are pretty common, and they look great with cloth shoes.
However, wearing socks with leather shoes would look cheap and out of place!
But if you wear leather shoes barefoot, your feet will get blisters...
Her lips pursed higher and higher. She wanted to go out in this beautiful outfit, but what about these shoes? Wearing these socks would look terrible!
Behind her back, Li Xiyue released a pair of stockings from her spatial storage.
She waved the stockings in front of Du Guixiang, "Look what this is! I prepared it for you a long time ago!"
Du Guixiang took the socks and examined them closely, her eyes nearly popping out of her head. "My God, what are these?! Yue'er, how do you have socks like these?! My God!"
Li Xiyue said, "Keep your voice down. These socks aren't for sale; they're specially made. You can't buy them in department stores, and you've never seen them on the market before."
My friend secretly slipped me a pair, but I don't usually wear these kinds of skirts, so I don't need them and you can have them!
Du Guixiang took the socks and looked at them carefully, her eyes full of surprise.
She put them on carefully, afraid of snagging them.
Li Xiyue wasn't worried at all. These were socks from the future, released from her spatial storage, and their quality was far superior to those of this era!
Du Guixiang put on her stockings and leather shoes, stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself from left to right. She was very satisfied with her current appearance!
She promised that if she went out, she would be the most stylish person on the street!
Li Xiyue and Du Guixiang went to a steamed bun shop outside the school to eat steamed buns.
Sure enough, along the way, people who passed by turned to look at Du Guixiang, thinking she had returned from abroad!
During the meal, Li Xiyue instructed Du Guixiang to organize all the students in the school. Everyone should go out and sell calendars separately. No fighting or rushing was allowed. She had plenty of calendars. As long as everyone was capable, they could earn enough money for two sets of clothes!
Du Guixiang wrote it all down. She admired Li Xiyue immensely; Li Xiyue's methods were too unconventional!
This is about getting rich together with all the students in the school!
What's most infuriating is her brother. He keeps talking about pursuing Li Xiyue, but he hasn't taken any action. He says he'll wait until he gets back before officially pursuing Li Xiyue.
Why should she wait? She doesn't want to wait!
