Chapter 33 The Emotional Value of Tall, Legged Athletes
"Assuming you choose the [Savings Account], there are roughly three ways to use it."
Zhou Lang lay on the bed, picked up a pen and paper, and wrote something simple.
First, the limit is 5000 yuan per day, payable only at one store.
He can buy expensive clothes or food every day and treat his family to a luxurious experience.
5000 yuan a day is enough to eat very well and dress in a high-class manner.
Second, spend 5000 yuan every day to buy goods that are easy to convert into cash and resell them.
For example, you can cash out prepaid shopping cards from large supermarket chains, or even buy gold, fine wines, or unopened and unactivated electronic products that retain their value.
The loss from cashing out can be controlled within 5-10%, which is equivalent to a net profit of about 30,000 yuan per week and a monthly income of 120,000 yuan.
It's a little troublesome, as it needs to be done once a week.
Third, you can spend 5000 yuan per day, up to a maximum of one week, after which the amount will be cleared. This means you can purchase a single item worth up to 35000 yuan per week.
This amount is enough for the average person to basically cover most of their material desires besides cars and houses.
Travel? Although you are restricted to spending at only one store, you can find boutique travel services with privately customized itineraries.
If a single person spends 35,000 yuan in a week while traveling domestically, wouldn't that mean they'd practically disappear from the destination? (I'm not talking about the "piao" in "shuang piao" – I'm sure of it).
Electronic products? Of course, many enthusiast products such as complete computer systems and SLR cameras cost tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan. But being able to buy an electronic product worth more than 30,000 yuan every week is enough to fully enjoy the daily life experience.
There are also miscellaneous expenses such as hotel stays and game top-ups, not to mention the rest.
As for [Gold Coins Falling from the Sky].
The drawback of this cash-making ability lies in the "random 1~10 grams".
The average expected return is equivalent to 5.5 grams of physical gold per day, which is equivalent to 5500 yuan in cash, and 38500 yuan per week.
But if you're incredibly unlucky and keep getting stuck with only the guaranteed 1 gram of gold coins for a whole month, then there's really nothing you can do...
After a brief analysis and consideration of the above details, Zhou Lang had a rough idea of what to expect.
[Savings Account], if you spend 35000 yuan every week, that's 182 million yuan a year. Go ahead and spend it, and you'll be left all alone.
[Gold Coins Falling from the Sky]: You can randomly receive 1000 to 10000 yuan every day. It has to be admitted that there is a gambling element involved. The average expected income per year is about 200 million yuan (minimum 365 yuan, maximum 36.5 million yuan).
He sent Su Ying'er a WeChat message, inviting her to lunch tomorrow.
……
The next day.
Inside the only handmade hamburger shop in Xiashan County.
"That's great, bro! I was worried I wouldn't be able to get you to agree to meet up."
Su Ying'er wore a loose-fitting sports sweatshirt today, paired with a faux two-piece skirt that covered her hips.
Almost her entire pair of long, slender legs were exposed.
When she stood up and sat down, her skirt fluttered, always revealing the super short shorts underneath.
Zhou Lang deliberately avoided looking at it, but then "accidentally" glanced at it a couple more times and realized that this was how the skirt, which was so short it couldn't be shorter, was designed.
The skirt and shorts are level and connected, essentially making it a pair of super short shorts, so there's no fear of accidentally exposing yourself.
So Zhou Lang openly began to scrutinize Su Ying'er's outfit.
This sporty-style soon-to-be female college student seems to have gotten used to the "no pants" style of wearing super short shorts.
She can confidently show off her long legs, which is truly pleasing to the eye.
"Do you feel uncomfortable when you owe someone a favor?" Zhou Lang smiled and asked casually.
Su Ying'er poked the ketchup with a French fry, nodded and said, "My family owns a factory and does business. We often call trucks to deliver goods. Sometimes my parents ask the driver to help load and unload the goods, otherwise they won't pay the freight."
"I felt really bad about it, so I would give the driver a case of drinks or a towel gift set worth a few dozen dollars at the end. No matter how much or how little, I would still thank them."
"My mother said I'm a spendthrift who 'sells his family's land without a second thought'."
Su Ying'er took a bite of her fries, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed together, and she looked like she was seeking comfort.
Zhou Lang nodded in agreement, saying, "You did the right thing. The driver's help with loading and unloading is charged separately. Hiring a short-term unloading worker separately costs fifty yuan. Generally, the agreed freight rate does not include the cost of the driver's help."
"Right?" Su Ying'er was happy to be recognized. She murmured, "I don't know why, but we've only met twice, and I couldn't help but say these things. I usually keep them to myself."
Zhou Lang thought for a moment and asked, "Have you mentioned it to your friend?"
"Mo Keyun? I've complained to her about it too, and she went even further, saying that I was wasting this money and that I should have just given it to her."
Zhou Lang chuckled, took a sip of his cola, and said, "This is probably the crux of the problem: you don't have any friends around you who share your values."
After poking the fries with ketchup, Su Ying'er picked up the burger and her hands slowed down unconsciously. "So, are we the same kind of people?"
"At least somewhat similar," Zhou Lang said. "Anyway, from getting to know you, I feel you're a beautiful and kind-hearted young woman with very positive values."
"Hmph, thanks for the compliment~"
"Are we staying in Xiashan County for another two days?" Zhou Lang asked. "I don't think there's anything fun to do back home."
Su Ying'er held the hamburger in both hands and smiled sweetly: "Actually, I just didn't want to stay at home. Traveling doesn't necessarily mean visiting certain tourist attractions. Eating local snacks and taking some photos is enough."
"Do you make travel plans in advance and strictly adhere to them, or do you just pack up and go wherever you want, and then wander around as you please?"
"Well, that's what I wanted to talk about next."
Su Ying'er wiped her hands with a wet wipe, took out a self-made strategy guide table from her phone, and showed it to Zhou Lang.
"The original plan was to cycle to Xiashan County, rest for a night, and then challenge a mountain road cycling route."
Then, you can cycle to a charming old-fashioned town with hot springs, massages, terraced fields, and flower fields perfect for taking photos.
Su Ying'er scrolled down the screen, where there were several lines of must-try foods: "The roasted lamb leg and whole fish feast in Xiashan County are very famous. Half of the reason I came here this time is for them."
Her sweatshirt sleeves dangled over the hamburger.
Seeing that there was some sauce on the hamburger, and that Su Ying'er might get her sleeves dirty, Zhou Lang reached out and rolled up her sleeves for her.
With a simple gesture, Su Ying'er's eyes blinked, and the smile at the corners of her eyes seemed to deepen.
Zhou Lang scanned the list of food recommendations and noticed a problem: "One person can't eat all of this, so you need a companion on the way to order more dishes and share them."
"That's exactly right! The most fatal flaw of solo travel is that you can only eat for one person. You can't order stir-fries because ordering too much is wasteful, and ordering too little means you won't get to experience all the local specialties!"
"I went to Yangzhou by myself during the summer vacation after my junior year of high school. I didn't even dare to order morning tea or Huaiyang cuisine. I was always curious about what braised shredded tofu and crab meat lion's head tasted like."
"Is your female companion still going to stay with you?" Zhou Lang suppressed a laugh, and seeing Su Ying'er's somewhat dejected expression, he already knew the outcome.
Su Ying'er slumped onto the table, looking weak and listless: "She took a taxi home by herself yesterday. She even asked me if I knew anyone who buys used cycling clothes and mountain bikes. If not, she'll put them up for sale on Xianyu (a second-hand marketplace app)."
Zhou Lang thought to himself, "Wow, she loses interest so quickly! Is this the origin of girls using nearly new secondhand items?"
"Then why don't we switch to a local partner and continue?" Zhou Lang asked directly.
Su Ying'er tilted her head and stared at Zhou Lang's expression.
Among boys my age, I've never met anyone I click with as well as him.
Perhaps because, at home and at school, she always habitually accommodates those around her, playing the role of someone who unilaterally provides emotional value.
After meeting Zhou Lang, her emotions were more tolerated and cared for by a more mature person, so the relationship was unexpectedly comfortable.
All sorts of thoughts gathered on her tongue, and Su Ying'er softly said, "Mmm, okay."
