Volume 1: The Bridge Man Chapter 92: Treat
September 23rd, summer isn’t quite over yet.
Barbecue is a very good choice for dinner or midnight snack. Qiao Yao brought him to the food street here several times during the summer vacation, so he knew which ones tasted good.
Although it was still a little early, it was Qiao Ji who was the host, so he decided the time and place.
"You don't know, my teacher took my phone away right after I sent you a message."
Zhang Chenyu was peeling the peanuts and edamame given by the store and complained, "That was my dad's old phone, it was only used to make calls, but I have to charge him for this..."
They have already ordered a lot of food, and the store is grilling it.
"You're incompetent. This has been discovered. Who can you blame?" Qiao Ji was not going to take the blame.
Zhang Chenyu: …
What you said makes a lot of sense.
"Can I have it back?"
"My math teacher received it."
"Oh." Qiao Ji nodded. "That's uncertain. He may give it to you after the monthly exam."
Both the math teacher and the head teacher have strong auras and are the type that are difficult to talk to.
If it was confiscated by the Chinese teacher, Mr. Fu, you should be able to get it back after school.
Qiao Ji had no intention of helping him get it back, as there was no time.
He is very busy now. Since he got on the subway, he has been chatting with Director Huang of Yulian University on his mobile phone, asking when can enroll and sending messages to Qiao Yao.
While sending the message, he switched apps, searched for real estate agencies in Yujing, and searched for flights to Yujing.
He plans to go there tomorrow.
"By the way." Qiao Ji asked without even raising his head, "Your phone was confiscated. Didn't you tell your family that you were going out to eat?"
"Needless to say, my dad's sports car is not at home, and my mom has been working overtime these two days and will be back very late."
After listening to Zhang Chenyu's story, Qiao Ji paused, and then continued to send the message to Qiao Yao.
"I still have to tell my family."
After sending the message, Qiao Ji summoned a frying pan placed it next to his stool, then reached into the portal and took out a thick stack of bills.
This was the money Zhang Xiaoli used to escape, including 90,000 yuan in cash and six kilograms of gold bars. She also withdrew more than 100,000 yuan in bank cards later.
Qiao Ji took out a stack of banknotes and put it on the table. "Since your phone was confiscated because you helped me, I'll give you a new one. There's a mobile phone store over there."
Zhang Chenyu looked at the banknotes placed in front of him and quickly waved his hand to refuse, "No, no, I can't take this."
"It's easy for people with special abilities to make money. I'll tell you about this later."
Qiao Ji pointed to the business hall in the distance, and then pointed to the next door to the barbecue stall, where there was a shop selling crayfish.
"When you come back from buying a cell phone, remember to buy two pounds of minced garlic and two pounds of crayfish with thirteen spices on the way."
Zhang Chenyu took the money in a daze, "Isn't this too much?"
"I can eat it."
Qiao Ji’s appetite is still OK, and he never has too much to eat.
Zhang Chenyu wanted to say, I didn’t ask about the crayfish, I was asking if the money was too much…
Forget it, Qiao Ji doesn’t seem to care about this little money at all.
Damn, so envious.
"Should we go order some crayfish first? Going over here to buy a phone will definitely take some time. Let them prepare it first..."
"Just do it if you think it's right." Qiao Jiyou received a call. He waved his hand, told Zhang Chenyu to go quickly, and then answered the call.
All right.
Zhang Chenyu quickly ran to the crayfish restaurant next door, ordered the dishes, and asked the boss to deliver them later.
Then he ran to the mobile phone store far across the street.
Qiao Yao happened to be taking a break at the moment and went to the cafeteria to eat. Signals could be received here, but the messages received were all monitored.
After seeing Qiao Ji's message, he called back, "Come over tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry?"
He was surprised that Qiao Ji sent a message saying that he would come over tomorrow, but he also felt that it was not possible.
Because they had been busy at work all day, they had no time to look for a house from the time they arrived until now.
"Settle down early and go to school early. The courses in Yujing will be more intense, right?"
It is easy to find reasons. For students, studying is the best reason.
Qiao Yao glanced at Lin Xingying next to him and said, "I think what Qiao Ji said makes sense. Let's arrange accommodation for the children first."
"Who of us should take leave when we go to look for a house tomorrow?" Lin Xingying thought for a moment, "Or I can ask my brother to come and help."
Qiao Ji's voice came from the speakerphone, "No need, I'll go find it, you guys go about your business."
"Will you find one? You've never rented a house before."
"There is a profession called intermediary. If you pay, you can always find a suitable place. Tell me where you work. I will look at the map and choose a suitable location."
"Yujing's housing prices are high, so don't even think about finding a suitable place. We have accommodation here, but we can't bring you in. You should mainly look for a place close to the school."
In fact, Qiao Yao felt that living on campus was a good choice. The Yulian University Affiliated High School also had accommodation facilities and the environment was pretty good. Director Huang had told him so.
But after thinking about it, I gave up. It's always good for the family to live together.
"I've looked at all the places close to school. There are a few good options. The monthly rent for a three-bedroom apartment is about 7,000 to 8,000 yuan. The environment is pretty good."
Seven or eight thousand?
Qiao Yao was shocked and said, "Good boy, this is a bit too expensive. Please consider our wallet."
"Isn't this rent a bit too..." Qiao Yao wanted to express as tactfully as possible the reality that the researcher's family was not particularly wealthy.
"I have money."
Qiao Ji's words stunned Qiao Yao, and then he asked: "Where did you get the money?"
"Have you forgotten that everything in my training ground will automatically repair itself?"
"Yeah, so what?"
Qiao Yao couldn't wrap his mind around it for a while and didn't understand what automatic repair had to do with money.
"It can repair itself automatically. I'll dismantle the steel structures and sell the scrap metal to buy a few houses in Yujing."
Qiao Ji explained calmly.
“…”
Qiao Yao and Lin Xingying were speechless for a moment.
Think carefully -
Damn, it’s true!
"Not to mention selling scrap metal, I can also make money by transporting it. After all, my space is big enough."
“Indeed…”
With such a large space, transportation must be very profitable.
Qiao Ji was sure that he had convinced them, and a smile appeared on his face. "But I'm in school now, so I won't do the transportation business anymore. I can just sell a few tens of thousands of dollars of scrap metal. Leave the renting to me, and you can just work without worry."
Qiao Ji is quick-witted, capable of getting things done beyond their expectations, and has a strong sense of action. He has decided to come to Yujing tomorrow, and it seems that he has no intention of changing his mind.
"Well, now that you're grown up and have financial resources, I'll leave this matter to you. Remember to discuss it with your sister."
"no problem."
Lin Xingying interrupted, "Do you want me to find someone to pick you up?"
