Chapter 387 Pretending to be poor was just to test you.
On the third day, Jiang He went back to work part-time at the clay pot rice noodle shop.
Neither of them had classes today, so Zhou Chen waited for Jiang He downstairs at the dormitory as usual, and the two went to the cafeteria together.
Upon meeting, Zhou Chen gave Jiang He a bag.
Jiang He looked inside the bag and saw that it contained a cell phone.
It's a phone similar to Zhou Chen's.
"Is this the phone you bought for me?"
Jiang He was surprised that Zhou Chen was so quick; he bought the phone in just one day.
Yesterday, he still looked conflicted, and I thought he would have to wait until the weekend at the earliest.
They really wouldn't make things too difficult for themselves.
"I asked the boss, and it's really not worth it to repair your phone, plus he can't guarantee it will be fixed."
Didn't you say you liked my phone? I didn't have class this morning, so I went and bought you one.
This phone costs 500 yuan, so you'll have to use it for a long time. Be careful not to drop or bump it.
I also asked the shop owner to get you a screen protector and a phone case so they can protect your phone.
After thinking about it for a day, Zhou Chen finally decided to just buy Jiang He a new phone.
If this needs repairing, who knows when it will ever be finished.
This matter will likely be brought up and rehashed frequently in the future.
Moreover, the more times it needs to be repaired, the more money it will cost.
After several repairs and spending a lot of money, I still had to spend money to buy a new phone in the end.
Then you might as well just get a new phone.
Of course, Jiang He would definitely give him the five hundred yuan.
Although it would definitely cost five thousand to sell on the market.
Fortunately, the cost price of this phone is only five hundred.
Moreover, this phone is an internal device and is not available on the market.
Zhou Chen specifically asked Uncle Zhang to replace the phone's casing, boot animation, and operating system to make it impossible to tell what brand of phone it was.
"Okay, thank you. I don't have any money on me right now, I'll give you 480 yuan later."
The twenty yuan was already paid before, so it should be included in that amount.
She calculates every single penny so meticulously.
Zhou Chen had no objection to this.
Actually, I got this phone from Uncle Zhang; he didn't pay for it.
But Jiang He still had to pay the money.
We must not let Jiang He have the idea of getting something for nothing.
Moreover, as a poor child, no one would give him a cell phone.
In the afternoon, Jiang He went to the bank near the school gate, withdrew the money, and gave it to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen initially thought withdrawing money was troublesome and wanted to teach Jiang He how to transfer money directly to the other party's bank card on her mobile phone.
All you need to do is download one software program.
This phone now has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, so you don't have to worry about it lagging when downloading a few commonly used apps.
But Jiang He refused.
They believe that linking the bank card to a mobile phone is unsafe.
It's better to withdraw the money and use cash; it's clearer and more transparent that way.
If you transfer money to the wrong account or lose your phone, wouldn't the money in your bank card easily be transferred out?
Even if this phone can be password protected, the password is just a few digits, and it might be guessed by chance.
Moreover, this phone requires a password to open, a password to log in to apps, and a password to make payments. She can't remember so many passwords.
It would be troublesome if I forgot.
She didn't want to get involved in these troublesome things.
Zhou Chen felt that Jiang He's words made sense.
Although he knew it was safe, the payment software was still in its early stages, and a large number of people shared the same attitude as Jiang He.
Zhou Chen did not persist any further.
Anyway, he would always remind Jiang He to bring some change before going out.
Jiang He wasn't one of those people; he wouldn't be in a situation where he didn't have enough money to go out and needed to spend it.
Last weekend, he went home and met up with some friends.
It was originally a gathering organized by someone else, and Zhou Chen just went over to sit for a while.
When it came time to pay the bill, two people said they didn't have their wallets, another said their phones were dead, and yet another simply ran off to the restroom.
In the end, the task of settling the bill fell to him.
They think he's a member of the Zhou family and has money, so they're treating him like a sucker.
After paying the bill, Zhou Chen blocked those people.
However, Jiang He was different from those people, and Zhou Chen believed that Jiang He would not disappoint him.
On the weekend, Zhou Chen went home under the guise of a part-time job, just like before.
Zhou Chen usually attends classes, so he works part-time in the cafeteria. Sometimes, when there are good part-time jobs near the school gate, Jiang He will specifically ask him to go with her, and Zhou Chen will go with her.
Zhou Chen would go home on the weekend.
Of course, what she told Jiang He was that she was going to do part-time work there.
This location is usually quite far from the school.
Moreover, the end time is quite late, so I guess I'll have to rush back just before the school closes the dorms.
This also means that Zhou Chen will not have much time to contact Jiang He over the weekend.
Jiang He's visits to him were also interfering with his work.
Therefore, the two have been out of contact for the past two days.
Jiang He also casually mentioned a location to Zhou Chen, saying that she would be working there part-time on the weekend.
Zhou Chen would remember this location and then avoid it when he went out on weekends.
Zhou Chen went home to enjoy his weekend, and Jiang He also started doing her own thing.
Jiang He first found a bank that wasn't near the school and opened a bank account.
The process of getting a bank card is quite quick.
With her new bank card, Jiang He used her points to exchange for the world's currency in the online store.
The new bank card quickly received a deposit of 100 million yuan.
Then I bought a new phone.
The phone Zhou Chen gave me is fine for everyday use.
He might look at her phone.
It's too much trouble to constantly be on guard against messages on my phone.
I downloaded a securities trading app on my phone.
She needed an excuse to make money.
That's just an excuse.
That way, I can give my parents a reason to explain things to them later.
As for which code to buy.
Jiang He discovered that the game master cultivation system from the previous world had undergone some upgrades in this world and has now evolved into the world's richest man cultivation system.
Hmm, becoming the world's richest person, that's a good goal.
To help the host become the world's richest person, some changes have been made to the system's functions.
Jiang He now uses this system to check the subsequent added value of each item.
Jiang He can use this feature to select the code.
This way, she can ensure that the code she chooses always yields a positive return.
Jiang He also saw that the Zhou family's current added value was positive returns, which meant that the Zhou family was on an upward trend.
Her first small goal in becoming the richest woman was to bring down the Zhou family.
Jiang He chose to enter the same industry as the Zhou family: the electronics industry.
This industry is constantly evolving; without the technology, you'll be eliminated at any time.
Only a few brands are mainstream.
Many other brands are very niche, unable to grow into large and strong businesses, and are at risk of being shut down at any time.
They simply disappeared from the stage of history.
