Chapter 4016 4018 [A gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way]
…
"You don't want 400,000 yuan in advertising fees? Oh my God, if it were me, I would have accepted it a long time ago." Wang Di sighed with emotion when he heard that Xiang Nan rejected the advertising invitation.
After his parents were laid off, they set up a stall selling fried skewers every day and made a thousand yuan a month, so they secretly enjoyed themselves. He simply couldn't imagine how many fried skewers the couple would have to sell to earn 400,000 yuan.
“Yeah, you didn’t make any money from 400,000 yuan? I made money even if you left me alone.” Feng Xuejiao nodded.
"A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. Those health care products are all deceptive. I won't deceive people just for such a small amount of money." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
If he wants to make unconscionable money, let alone 400,000, even 4 million or 40 million is easily available. The key is that he doesn't want to make money.
"Qin Li is right. To make money, you should be down-to-earth and not go astray." Huang Shu nodded and said, "My uncle just fished for side jobs. As a result, not only did he not make any money, but he always owed money to others."
Her uncle Wang Haitao doesn't want to find a serious job and work hard to make money, but he likes to work sideways. Either watching the show in a bar or setting up a gambling house at home. As a result, I didn't make much money, but owed a lot of money.
Because watching shows in bars inevitably leads to the bad habit of eating, drinking and having fun, and the little money earned is not enough to spend. Opening a mahjong parlor at home and recruiting people to play mahjong at home seems like he can earn a few bucks. However, he often cannot control his addiction and plays cards at the table himself. As a result, he loses nine times out of ten bets, and often loses so much that he has no money to buy groceries. .
Hence, she learned from her uncle that you can't make money by doing evil things. Even if you are lucky enough to make money, you will lose it very quickly and you won't be able to keep it.
“My father is like this too. He thinks that he will rob money quickly and die quickly.” Xiang Nan nodded.
"Of course robbery is not good, nor is cheating, but advertising is not. After all, so many celebrities are doing advertising, and no one has been arrested." Wang Di curled his lips and said.
“Yes, don’t all those big stars do advertising, and some of them are really reliable.” Feng Xuejiao curled her lips and said.
“I don’t care what other people do, I don’t make this kind of money anyway.” Xiang Nan waved his hand and said.
Young and energetic people always want to change the world, but in fact, I realize that it is already difficult to not be changed by the world.
…
"Qin Li, I watched a very good movie two days ago." In the evening, Xiang Nan and Wang Di were enjoying the cool air on the top floor together, and Wang Di said to Xiang Nan with a smile.
"What's a good movie? "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," "Mission: Impossible," "X-Men," "Abduction," or "The Matrix"?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.
“No, it’s a pornographic film.” Wang Di said mysteriously, “It’s quite enjoyable.”
Xiang Nan smiled when he heard this.
"Why don't you ask me how to enjoy it?" Seeing his reaction, Wang Di couldn't help asking. He originally wanted to show off, but Xiang Nan's reaction made him feel a little disappointed.
"Is there anything to ask? It's just that little thing." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said.
He has read countless women and is well-informed. There is nothing rare about just one movie. It is all leftover from his play.
"No, but I think it's nothing surprising." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Where did you watch the movie? That video studio on the corner?"
"Look, you still want to watch it." Wang Di said with a smile, "Let me tell you, you can watch it not in the video hall, but at Gao Lei's house." "Gao Lei?" Xiang Nan curled his lips, "This guy is boring. Wang Di, please listen to my advice and stay away from him."
"What's wrong? Is it because he wrote a love letter to Huang Shu that you have a problem with him?" Wang Di asked doubtfully after hearing this.
"He wrote a love letter to Huang Shu. It was his freedom. What do I have to say about it." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "But he wrote a love letter, but he didn't dare to hand it to her himself. Instead, he entrusted you to do it.
I don’t think he has any sense of responsibility as a man. I don’t think such a person would be so kind to his friends. So if you are with him, be careful of being tricked by him one day. "
“No, he is actually quite nice. On my birthday last time, he gave me a Jordan player card.” Wang Di said with a smile, “But the genuine one is worth hundreds of dollars.”
"Then you have to be more careful." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan shook his head and said, "There is no such thing as hate without reason, and there is no love without reason.
We have grown up together since childhood. You protect me and I protect you. I give you gifts and you give me gifts. This is all normal. You and Gao Lei have only known each other for a short time, but he gave you hundreds of yuan in star cards. Don’t you think he has some plans for you? "
"What does he want from me? I don't have much money." Wang Di said nonchalantly, "Besides, they are so rich, and they don't take anything that we think is expensive at all, so don't worry about it, okay?"
"Okay, anyway, be careful." Seeing what he said, Xiang Nan couldn't persuade him any more, so he gave the final instruction.
…
At the end of August, Xiang Nan handed Huang Shu five thousand yuan and asked her to pay Yuying’s tuition and living expenses for the next six months.
"Five thousand yuan?" Huang Shu was surprised after taking the money, "It's too much, Qin Li, how can I use so much?"
"Not much. The tuition, food, living expenses, and rent for the second half of the year are all included here." Xiang Nan explained, "Five thousand yuan is not too much. After all, I don't want you to live too hard."
The room fee for six months is 2,000 yuan, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees are at least 1,000 yuan, which is already 3,000 yuan. The remaining 2,000 yuan for six months is only 340 yuan per month, which is an average of only 11 yuan a day.
Of course, the money is not too small. In two thousand years, the average monthly salary of employees was only 780. Note that this is the average monthly salary. In comparison, in 2024, the average monthly salary of employees was more than 10,000 yuan, and there were many people whose actual monthly salary was less than 3,500 yuan.
It can be seen that with 340 yuan per month, one can basically live a moderate life. It's not very good, but it's definitely not bad either. For a girl named Huang Shu, it should be enough.
"Qin Li, where did you get so much money? You still have to pay your own tuition and living expenses." Huang Shu said worriedly.
"I was admitted to college with no tuition fees, and I wrote those articles and earned enough royalties to live on." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled, "To tell you the truth, I have saved 20,000 yuan, which is enough After four years of college.”
“Qin Li, you are so awesome, thank you.” Huang Shu nodded and said with great emotion, “I really don’t know how I can repay you.”
"Don't say that. I helped you and never thought of repaying you." Xiang Nan shook his head.
"I know, that's why I'm even more moved." Huang Shu nodded.
There are many people in the world who are nice to her, but she can see that the reason why those people are nice to her is just to chase her. This is true for Zhang Xu, Gao Lei, and even Wang Di.
But Xiang Nan is not like this. The look he looked at her was very pure, without any hint of sensuality. She therefore knew that Xiang Nan was not being courteous because he wanted to pursue her because she was beautiful, but was really helping her out of kindness and loyalty, so she was even more moved.
Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Don't think about this. Study hard. Getting good grades in the college entrance examination next year will be the greatest reward for me."
