Half an hour later, Yan Bugui knocked on Ye Tianya's door.
Ye Tianya was at home drinking malted milk and eating fruit-flavored biscuits for breakfast.
"Tian Ya, what do you need our help with?”
Yan Bugui swallowed his saliva as he sniffed the fragrance of the malted milk.
Seeing this, Ye Tianya generously brewed a bowl of malted milk and placed it in front of him.
"Third Uncle, let's drink together!"
"Then I'll try this luxury item again.”Yan Bugui smiled obsequiously.
Malt Milk Essence was a high-end nutritional supplement that could only be bought on the fourth floor of the department store.
The fourth floor of the department store was only open to senior officers, so Yan Bugui didn't even have the right to go up and take a look.
"Third Uncle, ask Third Aunt to help me buy these tickets from the store.”
Ye Tianya said as he placed a pile of colorful bills on the table.
He had received a bunch of tickets yesterday, and many of them had an expiration date.
He was too lazy to line up and didn't want to waste it, so he wanted to ask someone to help him buy it.
Third Aunt was usually free at home, so she was a suitable candidate.
Meat, cloth, cotton, sugar, oil, etc., almost dazzled Yan Bugui.
"Tian Ya, where did you get so many tickets? Did you get them from Pigeon City?”
Pigeon City had specialized ticket scalpers who could buy everything from food stamps to bicycle tickets.
Ye Tianya took out so many kinds of tickets at once, and he naturally thought that he bought them from ticket scalpers.
"They were all given by the leader yesterday. If you don't use them, they will expire. Help me buy them back, and I'll give you 10% as compensation for your hard work.”
After Ye Tianya finished speaking, he took out ten big black tens and gave them to him.
There was no room for bargaining in the mall, so he didn't have to worry about them making a profit.
As for the 10% that they would be given, it would be their reward for queuing up to buy things.
After all, it was time-consuming to queue up to buy things these days, and it was often not guaranteed that there would be goods in the queue.
"Ten percent for our family?" Yan Bugui beamed with joy.
"Yes, but you have to keep it a secret so that others won't be jealous.”
Ye Tianya said bluntly.
This pile of tickets could buy a lot of things. It was inevitable that outsiders would be jealous.
They could only come sneakily, not with guns.
"I understand, I understand. Tian Ya, thank you!”
Yan Bugui thanked him sincerely.
He knew that Ye Tianya was indirectly helping his family. Otherwise, he could just find someone to help buy it.
"Don't be so polite. Aren't we neighbors?”Ye Tianya said with a smile.
Although Yan Bugui was stingy, he didn't have any malicious intentions and had a bottom line.
Therefore, she didn't mind using some small favors to rope him in. Perhaps it would be useful in the future.
"Tian Ya, then I'll put away the money first. I'll check with you after I buy things in batches, okay?”Yan Bugui asked.
"Yes, yes. Just send me the things you bought.”Ye Tianya nodded and said.
Yan Bugui carefully put the money note into the pocket of his tattered cotton-padded jacket, drank the malted milk in one gulp, and hurriedly left.
He had taken advantage of Ye Tianya early in the morning. He had to hurry home to report the good news.
After he left, Ye Tianya simply dressed up and pushed the brand new 28 bars out the door.
His experience in the Dark World last night made him realize a big problem.
His English level needed to be improved, otherwise he would not be able to communicate with the natives.
Taking advantage of the few days of sick leave, he went to the library to borrow a few English dictionary to refresh himself.
...
The city library was not far from Nanluogu Alley. It was only a ten-minute ride.
Previously, Ye Tianya often came here to borrow novels to pass the time, so he could be considered an old horse who knew the way.
Now that the library was open to the public for free, anyone could go in and read.
However, borrowing books required registration with a work pass and a maximum of three books at a time.
After Ye Tianya returned the Romance of the Three Kingdoms he borrowed last time, he began to look for the Chinese-English dictionary he needed.
In the end, after working for half a day, the harvest was barely satisfactory.
Although he had found many English reference books such as the " Chinese-English dictionary,"" New Chinese-English dictionary," and " World Chinese-English dictionary," the translation of the content in them was quite different from what he had learned in later generations, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of his revision.
In the end, Ye Tianya chose the hardcover edition of the 2034 edition of the World Chinese-English dictionary.
There was no other reason. It was the thickest and the most high-grade.
Then, he found a seat by the window and sat down to read a book, hoping to awaken his memories of learning English.
Near noon, Ye Tianya, who was immersed in his studies, suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Many people around him seemed to be secretly sizing him up, and a few young people were even pointing at him.
"Brother, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?”
Ye Tianya asked a young man at the side straightforwardly.
"Doctor Ye, I'm sorry. We just didn't expect to see you here.”the young man replied.
"You know me?" Ye Tianya said in surprise.
"That's right, you're the great hero of our capital!”
The young man handed him a copy of the Capital Daily that was published yesterday afternoon.
Ye Tianya took a look.
The newspaper had a special report about him saving people the day before yesterday, and there was also a photo of him bowing.
No wonder the people around him looked at him curiously.
Usually, it was not easy for them to encounter a hero that was not hanging on the wall.
If it wasn't for the fact that the library needed to be quiet, they might have swarmed over to ask for his autograph.
"Doctor Ye, are your injuries alright?”The young man asked again.
"Much better. Thanks for your concern. Goodbye.”
Ye Tianya realized that he couldn't stay in the library anymore. After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Being a celebrity was like being an animal in a zoo. He had no choice but to flee.
At the same time, he was glad that he had wrapped the gauze again when he left the house in the morning. Otherwise, his acting would have been exposed.
"Doctor Ye is seriously injured, but he still doesn't forget to learn. As expected of our role model.”
"He saved dozens of people in the frozen lake in the middle of winter. He's really too great.”
"He's kind and handsome. It would be great if we could be friends with him.”
...
Ye Tianya had just left when the surrounding people began to whisper.
Some people envied him for getting the honorary title, some admired his courage, and some girls wanted him to get a partner.
It was a pity that he left too quickly and did not even give them a chance to communicate.
