Chairman Xiao Xu had just returned home when he saw a familiar figure at the door.
"Hey! Isn't this Xiaochuan classmate? How did you get here... Could it be that you are dissatisfied with me and secretly hate me, and decided to stage a Jing Ke assassination of the Qin Emperor?"
Yin Xiaochuan was also stunned for a moment, a little surprised: "Principal! Why are you here too?"
"This is my home, why am I not here?"
Yin Xiaochuan looked at the Tang-style building in front of him, then looked at Principal Xu who was walking towards him with a smile, and thought about it carefully... So, Shao Yujie went to the principal's house?
Could it be that, Brother Jie, Brother Jie! ...
"Student Xiaochuan, are you thinking about something strange?" Principal Xu looked at Yin Xiaochuan. He always felt that student Yin Xiaochuan might be thinking about something strange like "becoming his shape" or "they are all my wings".
"nothing!"
Yin Xiaochuan put aside the messy thoughts in his head and remembered the purpose of this trip.
"I need help from Shao Yujie!"
"Oh, I'll take you to them!"
Yin Xiaochuan followed Principal Xu into the room. Principal Xu later adjusted the building and expanded it into a courtyard with two entrances in the front and back. In the separate game room, Shao Yujie and Gao Xiaolong were playing a racing game on PS3... There were also two bottles of Coca-Cola next to them.
Yin Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment.
He looked at the separate game room, the refrigerator in the room, the game console, and then thought about the furnishings in Ma Duoshuai's home...
I have mixed feelings.
"Principal, you are arrogant and extravagant!"
"Ogawa-san is really outspoken!"
Principal Xu smiled and said, "But the question is, what is the purpose of making money? Isn't it for spending? What's the meaning of the string of numbers lying on the passbook, Xiaochuan! Why do I feel that your reaction is a bit too excited? What do you mean? Are you not satisfied with the real rural life experience?"
Yin Xiaochuan was indeed a little stimulated, mainly because the contrast between the beginning and the end was too great, and he couldn't help but blurt out what was in his heart.
Fortunately, Shao Yujie stepped forward and rescued him at this time.
"Xiaochuan, are you looking for me?"
"Brother Jie, um...I'm sorry for something."
Yin Xiaochuan took out the broken MP3 player and said guiltily, "I accidentally broke the gift you gave me. It's only been a few days... I wonder if I can return it for a warranty or something."
"Is it broken? Let me take a look!"
Shao Yujie came over immediately: "It should be repairable, I'll go find a computer and ask the seller!"
Principal Xu also came over curiously to take a look, and suddenly said:
"How about letting me try?"
Two pairs of eyes looked at Principal Xu curiously.
At that time, Taobao had not yet reached the level of service that people would call "Dear" in later generations. It was still a bit troublesome to return or exchange goods, mainly because broken goods were considered "man-made damage", which would inevitably involve some disputes.
At this time, Principal Xu's basic profession of "electrical appliance repairman" came in handy.
Why did he choose this profession? Principal Xu was helpless...
He successfully led Tianya Village into electrification, but electrical appliances are always prone to malfunction, and the quality of many electrical appliances of this era was no match for those of more than a decade later.
Since it was impossible to find maintenance talents in the short term, Principal Xu had to do it himself and take a few apprentices with him.
I called the apprentice and a set of tools was delivered quickly.
So three pairs of eyes watched as Principal Xu pried open the MP3 player's shell expertly, and then said, "This thing is of poor quality. Sometimes you can't buy things that are too cheap. If you buy things that are too cheap, you will end up spending more money!"
The MP3 player that Shao Yujie bought cost 180 RMB, but in 2006, the price of an MP3 player produced by a legitimate manufacturer, even the lowest-end product, was around 300 RMB.
An MP3 player that costs 180 yuan is most likely a counterfeit product.
But the glory of MP3 will not last long.
Next, the price drops every year, and the production process of the MP3 player in your hand will be reduced. After more than ten years, when you open the online shopping, it should be 9.9 yuan including shipping... maybe 6.6 yuan can be bought. If you buy it online from a certain website, 3.3 yuan is not impossible.
"It's really desoldered. Even if the seller replaces it for you, it may not take too long. The welding process is really poor! I will re-solder it for you!"
Principal Xu picked up the soldering pen and professionally fixed the main board, then reinstalled the MP3 player and even repainted the damaged parts.
Ah this!
Yin Xiaochuan and Shao Yujie were both stunned.
"Principal, how come you know everything!?"
"The principal knows a lot! How could he be the principal otherwise? Listen and see if it's fixed!"
In front of the MP3 that had regained its normal functions, the two people had to admit that what Principal Xu said just now was so convincing that there was really no way to refute it.
“Just like new!”
Yin Xiaochuan took it in his hand and looked at it, and couldn't help feeling a little excited.
"No, you're wrong! Its original welding process is much better than the new one! As long as you don't break the motherboard and circuit components, this thing will basically not break again. The materials used are OK, and it should be fine to use it for another one or two years!"
"Principal! Thank you!"
Yin Xiaochuan thanked him from the bottom of his heart, and then ran out, even forgetting to say goodbye to Shao Yujie. Principal Xu stared at Xiaochuan's back thoughtfully, probably...
He didn't break the MP3 player himself, did he?
…
He ran back to Quema Village from Tianya Village in one breath. Even though the two villages were not too far apart, it was at least ten miles away. Yin Xiaochuan, the crooked guy, was almost exhausted to death.
However, just like Pheidippides who ran 42.193 kilometers in one breath despite being injured in order to convey the news of victory to his compatriots, Yin Xiaochuan also ran back to Lame Village in one breath with excitement.
This is also thanks to Coach Zhou's "professional player training".
Otherwise, even if he was excited, Yin Xiaochuan would have to lie down halfway.
"Ma Duoshuai! The MP3 has been repaired! I'll give you the money back—"
"Brother Chuan, my family is rich now!"
Almost at the same time, Ma Duoshuai excitedly shouted to Yin Xiaochuan.
He just turned 18 this year, and with the share given to his parents and three younger brothers and sisters, he received a total of more than 6,000 yuan.
The wealth that fell from the sky fell on this poor family like a blessing from heaven, making every family member excited. Ma Duoshuai couldn't wait to share his joy with Yin Xiaochuan.
But after the joy, a faint sadness arose in my heart.
Ma Duoshuai looked at the empty chicken coop and murmured, "It would be great if I could have money sooner."
"If only I could have money sooner..."
