After closing at nine o'clock in the evening, Xiao Yu greeted Old Zhang and walked to the internet cafe behind the bazaar with Xiao Zhou.
Hongxing Internet Cafe was one of the few big Internet cafes in this area.
It was located on the second floor of the clothing wholesale market, occupying an entire floor. The large neon lights outside the Internet cafe were particularly eye-catching at night.
Xiao Zhou brought Xiao Yu up to the second floor with ease. He pushed open the glass door of the internet cafe and a dozen rows of computers appeared in front of Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu roughly counted and there were probably more than 200 of them.
The clean and tidy floor, the spacious and comfortable environment, and the cooling air conditioner made Xiao Yu, who often dealt with oil fumes and the dirty environment in the kitchen, very satisfied.
A computer was a new thing for Xiao Yu. How could he find the knowledge he wanted with something that looked like a television? Just thinking about it was unbelievable.
Xiao Zhou took the 20 yuan that Xiao Yu gave him and quickly got the boss to turn on two computers. He brought Xiao Yu around and the two of them sat down in a corner.
The seat was very comfortable. It was a seat that was a little like a sofa. Sitting on it made one feel comfortable all over. The two of them sat side by side. Xiao Zhou helped Xiao Yu turn on his phone and taught him how to log in, how to use the browser, and how to search for information.
With Little Yu's intelligence and memory, he naturally remembered everything in one go. This also made Little Zhou click his tongue in wonder.
"Xiao Yu, look, our domestic search engines now generally use Baidu or Yahoo. Of course, there was also Google in the past, but since they withdrew from China, very few people use it. You just need to enter the keywords in this box and click the search button next to it. The results you need will appear. It's very convenient.”
Xiao Yu tried to type a few words into the search box. It was his first time using the keyboard, so he was not very familiar with it. It took him two minutes to type the words 'Shanghai High School Exam Paper.'
He gently clicked the button beside him with the mouse. As expected, rows of information containing the 'Shanghai High School Exam Paper' appeared in front of him.
"Xiao Yu, most of this information is free. Of course, there are a few that can only be read by joining a membership fee. You can just check those free ones.”
Xiao Zhou taught Xiao Yu how to download the test papers and how to use the software to read them. He also applied for a QQ number for Xiao Yu, saying that it was the most popular communication tool for modern young people. Then, he left Xiao Yu behind and curled up in a corner to watch a small movie.
Xiao Yu used the mouse to open the links one by one. The content inside surprised Xiao Yu. There were many places where you could download the test papers for free. Xiao Yu tried to download a set of test papers. It was actually the test papers that had just been used for this year's final exam. Such a new test paper could be downloaded, which really surprised Xiao Yu.
Since he had found the test papers, Xiao Yu immediately took action. He quickly browsed through the contents of the test papers. At the same time, rows of answers jumped out in his mind. Xiao Yu's reading speed became faster and faster. He downloaded the test papers from the internet one by one. On average, he could complete a set of test papers every 20 minutes.
After doing more than 20 test papers in one go, Xiao Yu had a general impression of the examination mode of Shanghai High School and the composition of the knowledge points on the test papers. He accidentally clicked on an English teaching video and realized that he could learn English online.
This made Xiao Yu very happy. In the past, he learned English completely by memorizing words and grammar. He did not know the pronunciation of English. He remembered many English words in his mind, but he could not speak English. This made Xiao Yu very depressed.
Now, with this kind of teaching video, it was much more convenient. Xiao Yu followed the subtitles on the screen and muttered the words. The English words and pronunciations matched one by one. Xiao Yu was like a small fish swimming in the infinite sea, greedily absorbing the nutrients of knowledge. Unknowingly, an overnight had passed.
"Hint, your proficiency in spoken English has increased by 2%!”
He was very excited about the improvement of his proficiency in spoken English. He did not expect that he could learn spoken English online. This was something he had never thought of before.
"It's time to open the shop!" Xiao Yu stretched and looked at the clock on the wall. It was already five o'clock. Just as he was about to wake up Xiao Zhou, who was already snoring loudly, he suddenly realized that there was a horn-shaped mark flashing in the lower right corner of the computer.
"What is this?" Xiao Yu curiously used the mouse to click on the small loudspeaker.
" Green Grass by the River wishes to add you as a friend and requests your permission, yes? No? A small picture frame appeared.
"Green grass by the river? Who is this?" Little Yu didn't expect that someone would add him as a friend just after he applied for QQ. Looking at the name, it should be a girl. He excitedly clicked 'yes'.
A girl's profile picture appeared in his friend list. She looked innocent and innocent. After a while, he received a message.
"Hello, Little Yu."
Xiao Yu's QQ name was 'Xiao Yu'. This was what Xiao Zhou insisted on when he applied for a QQ account for him. Although Xiao Zhou said that everyone on the Internet used a fake name, Xiao Yu still insisted on choosing his own name. Xiao Yu had his own thoughts. He would not steal or rob, so why would he use a fake name?
Little Zhou's QQ name was extremely lewd. It was called " Burning Incense to the Sky ", which made Little Yu speechless.
Xiao Yu typed two words in the reply column of the dialog box-'Hello.'
Seeing that Xiao Yu had responded, the other party seemed to be very excited and immediately sent a new message.
" Paying video service: Wonderful performance waiting for you to enjoy. Brothers who are willing to pay, please come in. Brothers who want to watch for free, please don't add. I hope you can understand. I sincerely serve you. If you don't shoot, you won't succeed.”
What was this? Little Yu was stunned.'Pay for video'? Could it be that he was also studying English? He remembered that Xiao Zhou had once told him that some websites had to be charged. It seemed that this website might require a member to pay to enter.
Xiao Yu thought for a while and asked carefully," How much do you charge?”
The other party's message was sent over like lightning." 100 per shot. If you don't shoot, you won't succeed.”
Little Yu was shocked. Could it be that it cost 100 yuan to download the test paper? This was really expensive, but what did it mean?
Even though Xiao Yu had a head full of high school language textbooks, he still couldn't find the meaning of 'no shot, no success' in this sentence. Could it be that it meant '100% accuracy?'? However, since it was a fee-based website, it was better for him not to use it.
Little Yu followed Little Zhou's previous instructions and blacklisted this profile picture. His heart was filled with a strange feeling. The things on the Internet were really strange!
After waking up Little Zhou, who was in a daze, the two of them left the internet cafe and walked straight to the market. Little Zhou was also a man who had fallen from grace. He usually slept in that half-door shop.
Little Yu told Little Zhou about the " green grass by the river " incident. Little Zhou was so happy that she bent over." Little Yu, there are many such things on the Internet. They are all scamming the money of those rich people. We can't afford to spend it. If you want to have fun, you can spend 30 yuan and go straight to Honglin Road to take a plane. It's cheap and affordable.”
Only now did Little Yu know that it was actually that shady business. He couldn't help but spit and think to himself,'As expected, there are all kinds of birds in the forest. It's just a pity that such a good name like' Green Grass by the River'.
After returning to the market, Xiao Yu came to the entrance of his shop and found a person sitting on the steps at the entrance. It seemed that he had been here for a long time and was dozing off with his head lowered.
Xiao Yu took a closer look. This person was actually a young lady in her twenties. She was wearing a flowery plaid shirt, a pair of jeans, and a pair of cheap sneakers. There was a large travel bag beside her. From the way she dressed, she should have just come from the countryside. She was dressed a little rustic.
She was obviously not asleep and was very alert. As soon as Xiao Yu came close, her eyes immediately opened and her right hand habitually pulled the travel bag to her side.
"May I ask who you are?" Little Yu looked at the girl in front of him and had an idea in his heart.
When the girl saw Xiao Yu asking her, she immediately stood up in a hurry, looking a little at a loss. However, when she saw Xiao Yu's expression, her expression clearly relaxed. The boy in front of her was younger than her, gentle and weak, and did not look dangerous.
"Are you the owner of this shop?" The girl asked timidly. She couldn't believe it. Why was the boss so young?
Xiao Yu nodded and took out the key to open the shutter door, confirming her guess with facts.
The girl immediately became excited and said to Xiao Yu," I saw the recruitment notice. I heard that you're hiring people here and even provide food and accommodation. Is this true?”
Xiao Yu sized her up and realized that she was about 1.65 meters tall, almost taller than him. Her figure was well-proportioned. Although she did not put on any makeup, her beautiful facial features could still be seen. It could be said that if she dressed up, she would not be inferior to those young ladies on Honglin Road.
Little Yu couldn't help but frown. In comparison, he would rather find a male assistant. What kind of work could a girl like this do?
At the thought of this, he couldn't help but ask," I'm looking for a worker here. I don't think it's suitable for you to be like this, right?”
The girl understood the meaning behind Xiao Yu's words and immediately became anxious." Boss, I'm very capable in my hometown. There are many job advertisements on the road. I tried to find a few, but after working for a day, I escaped. I don't want to go to those messy places. I just want to earn money with my own hands.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but be moved. This girl was obviously much more courageous than those women in the hair salon on Honglin Road. After the exam tomorrow, she would be preparing to go to school. The shop really needed someone to look after it. In the past few days, no one had come to apply for a job. Although she was a woman, she might be able to do the work here. At most, she would let Old Zhang look after her more often!
"The salary for the probation period is 600 per month, including food and accommodation. After three months, the salary will be 800. Are you willing?”Little Yu stated his conditions.
The girl was very happy. The salary was about the same as working in a factory, and it also included food and accommodation. Naturally, she was very willing.
Little Yu asked for her name. The woman's surname was Zhou, and her name was Xin. Little Yu saw that she was a few years older than him, so he called her Sister Little Xin.
