As mentioned earlier, Shi Liu has a wide range of interests and hobbies. She changes one from time to time, and she is the best in almost every one of them. From this, we can see that she is a person who likes to learn.
Perhaps this is what is called "the top students don't understand the pain of the poor students," Shi Liu thought somewhat irrationally.
Although Tang Tang was full of resentment whenever she mentioned Shi Liu, this did not affect their relationship. Shi Liu always felt that Tang Tang's eyes were full of stars and admiration when she looked at her.
This look made Shi Liu feel more stressed. In order to maintain her status, Shi Liu had to spend more time studying high school knowledge, and even started to read some college textbooks.
Brother Shi Si looked at Shi Liu, who was in a hurry even to eat every day, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's really not easy to get into university.
When he thought about his eldest sister who was already the top student in the school and was still working so hard, Fourth Brother Shi felt embarrassed to sit idle.
So, Shi Si Ge also started to compete internally. The other apprentices in the transport factory suddenly found that the people with connections studied harder. This made them seem lazy. The masters looked at them with disgust. In order to avoid being compared to the mud, they had to study hard one by one.
In order to finish the review notes as quickly as possible, Shi Liu kept writing at school, and as a result, this matter was noticed by a few people with ulterior motives.
Shi Liu looked at the classmates who stopped her and sighed helplessly in her heart. She really had no intention of selling review materials in school, but it seemed that they all thought she was amazing and wanted to buy the "secret book" she compiled.
In fact, based on the tactics of solving a large number of questions in her previous life, Shi Liu was not bragging, the review materials she wrote could really become a "secret book", but Shi Liu was quite worried. Although they were classmates, they were not familiar with each other after all.
Seeing Shi Liu pretending to be dumbfounded, the two men immediately became anxious. The hot-tempered Zhao Yihong reached out to pull Shi Liu away, but was stopped by Chen Boyi beside him: "Yihong, it's not convenient to talk here in the crowded school. Let's go to Shi Liu's house to chat."
Shi Liu knew she couldn't hide away from this. She couldn't just bite the bullet and bring them back to the rental house, so she had to explain, "Classmates Zhao and Chen, my family lives in the commune downstairs, and now I'm renting a house in the city. I'm afraid it's not very convenient to discuss things."
Chen Boyi thought about it and realized that what they were going to talk about was somewhat sensitive. If it was heard by outsiders, it would cause trouble. So he simply suggested: "Why don't the three of us go to Zhao Yihong's house? Their house is in the government compound, so it's relatively safe." The key is that it's a private house, so no matter what they say, it won't be overheard by outsiders.
Shi Liu nodded and agreed: "I'll go back and tell the landlord first, so that I won't be late and worry them." She was mainly worried that Fourth Brother Shi would be anxious.
Chen Boyi immediately smiled and said, "Sure, we'll go with you. It's a good opportunity to get to know the place. If you come across any questions you don't understand in the future, you can talk to Shi Liu about it."
Although Zhao Yihong has a bad temper, he is also very thoughtful. Since Shi Liu said so, it proves that what they ask for is 80% likely to be achieved.
It was only after Shi Liu entered the government compound that he realized that his classmates were truly talented people. Zhao Yihong's father was Mayor Zhou's capable secretary, and Chen Boyi's father was the captain of the armed forces. Both of them were considered the top second-generation powerful people in Lin City.
As the host, Zhao Yihong personally brought a bottle of soda to Shi Liu. "With our grades, we have a 70% chance of getting into university. However, our father may be transferred to Hai City next year or the year after, so we both naturally hope to see our family more often."
Shi Liu nodded: "Are you two planning to take the entrance exam to Hai City?"
"Shi Liu is truly a smart person," Chen Boyi said, adding a little humor. "But our grades might be good in this small Lin City, but getting into a top university in Hai City is still quite difficult."
Zhao Yihong said bluntly, "We've noticed that Shi Liu is very good at studying. Her grades are definitely among the best even in other major cities. So, we'd like to ask if you could sell us a copy of the review materials you compiled. Don't worry, we brothers won't take your stuff for free."
Shi Liu felt relieved. These two people were really here to review the materials, but Qiao Hongbin and his partner gave her 100 yuan each. How could these two people chop her hands off? Moreover, "Does your family know about this?"
Chen Boyi and the other man clenched their fists excitedly. Chen Boyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Shi Liu, our family knows about this."
Shi Liu pursed her lips and said with embarrassment: "In that case, I will just say it straight. Actually, this review material was compiled for the educated youth in our village. They each gave me 100 yuan, so you..." How much did you give?
When Zhao Yihong and the other man heard that each of them would get 100 yuan, they gasped. They had originally planned to give 30 yuan each, but now it seemed a bit too much. However, 100 yuan was indeed too much. Nowadays, a job only costs 500 or 600 yuan.
Seeing the two people's dilemma, Shi Liu continued, "In addition to spending countless efforts, I will also have to pay the cost. I will find someone to print the information into a book."
Zhao Yihong didn't expect that Shiliu actually had this method. If this was true, the cost would not be low, and the 30 yuan was really too much to ask for. It was a good thing that he didn't speak quickly just now, otherwise he would be embarrassed now.
Chen Boyi thought of the rumored military officer boyfriend of Shi Liu, and guessed that this matter must have been arranged by him. He printed the information into a book. Even if someone found out, there would be no evidence to prove that the book was sold by Shi Liu. His classmate was really meticulous.
Chen Boyi silently calculated in his mind, 100 yuan may seem like a lot, but in reality it is not much more than buying the book directly. Even review materials are not available in bookstores nowadays, and many people spend more money to buy second-hand books for the slim chance.
As far as he knew, Shi Liu had a lot of review materials, so she must have the confidence to ask for such a high price.
Chen Boyi finally relented: "Okay, I'll send the money home to you tomorrow."
Zhao Yi's eyes turned red as he saw that his brother agreed, and he nodded as well. After all, it was not like their family couldn't come up with 100 yuan.
Shi Liu smiled happily, this trip was not a loss at all, he made a net profit of nearly 200 yuan.
After Zhao Yihong's family came back, they invited Shi Liu to dinner. Shi Liu did not refuse. After all, 200 yuan was not a small amount of money, and it was not a big deal if they wanted to see her skills.
After a conversation, the elders of the Zhao and Chen families discovered that this little girl was no ordinary girl. She spoke very carefully during the meal and did not look like someone who came from a small mountain village. She looked more like... more like the eldest daughter of a prominent family who was carefully trained!
Suddenly, Zhao's father thought that his boss's nephew seemed to have found a girlfriend and was now attending No. 1 Middle School. Could that person be Shi Liu? Thinking back to his son's female classmates, Zhao's father found that no one could compare to Shi Liu. So it seemed that his guess was 80% correct.
Shi Liu was quick to notice that Mr. Zhao's attitude towards her had changed. Although she was a little curious, it wasn't a bad thing after all. (End of this chapter)
