My Side Job is a Trader

After Zhang Xin fully mastered the essentials of meditation, the two went to bed separately.

Young people generally go to bed late at night, so although they are tired, neither of them intends to sleep.

So the two started chatting.

Since graduating from university, Zhang Xin has never had the experience of sleeping in the same room with others. At this moment, the two seem to have returned to the feeling of sleeping in the same dormitory when they were in college.

It was the same at that time. Sometimes we couldn’t fall asleep, so we would lie on the bed and chat about all kinds of topics. Of course, the topics related to girls are enduring.

The goddess in Wang Shen's heart was tricked out by other people in the dormitory at that time.

Speaking of women, Wang Shen suddenly became concerned about Zhang Xin's lifelong affairs: "Today I only talked about me and Zheng Xue, how about you? When are you going to find a girlfriend?"

Zhang Xin turned his head, stretched out his hand to gesture for himself, and said, "Are you joking with me? In my current situation, girls will fall in love with me? Let's not harm other girls, and just treat it as a good deed."

Zhang Xin still has low self-esteem when it comes to finding a girlfriend.

Of course, it also has something to do with a relationship in college.

During his sophomore year, he once fell in love with a high school classmate, but they were not in the same city.

Long-distance relationships are very painful. Almost every two weeks, Zhang Xin will take the train to the city where his girlfriend lives, and the two of them will have dinner and watch movies together.

For Zhang Xin, who is from a poor family, this is not a small expenditure burden.

Sometimes Zhang Xin had to do some part-time jobs off-campus to save money.

It's a pity that the relationship between the two lasted only one year. In the end, the girl chose to break up on the grounds that the long-distance relationship was too tiring.

Zhang Xin was very attentive to this relationship, but he did not expect such a result in the end.

On the day of the breakup, Zhang Xin didn't sleep all night. He, who never smoked, smoked five packs of cigarettes in one night, and his voice became hoarse.

After dawn, he went to class normally like a normal person, and when he returned to the dormitory at night, he silently looked at the picture of his girlfriend.

Later, when he was cruel, he deleted all traces related to his girlfriend, but this experience was hidden deep in his heart, and until now he has no courage to start a new relationship.

When Zhang Xin recounted this experience in a calm tone, Wang Shen was silent for a while.

"It seems that there is a reason why we can become good friends. We are both people who love deeply, and the endings also end in tragedy."

Zhang Xin said in a joking tone: "Love is a bastard, whoever falls in love first will die. I especially agree with this sentence in "If You Are the One"."

"Hey, it's said that when you're frustrated in love, you're happy in a casino. Why don't we go to a casino and try it out, and see how it works out."

Zhang Xin replied angrily: "Isn't our stock futures gambling? Is it possible that only going to Macau is called gambling?"

"That's investment, not gambling."

"Is there a difference for most people? Anyway, it's either going up or down, and it's no different from betting big and small."

Wang Shen glanced at the phone, and responded: "The whip is inside. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to bed. I'm already feeling a little sleepy."

...

Early the next morning, after the two of them washed up, Wang Shen packed up everything and was ready to go out with his things at any time.

After checking out, Wang Shen decided to visit Lujiazui first.

In his words, it is to feel the atmosphere in advance, so as not to say that when you come here to develop in the future, you will not be acclimatized.

I deliberately chose a sightseeing bus and spent almost a morning to see most of the attractions.

Because there are too many people in many scenic spots, neither of them wants to get off the bus, so they just sit on the bus all the time.

Since the sightseeing bus is a circular route, when the bus drove to the old pier, the two chose to get off.

It is said that the old wharf was also preserved during the Republic of China, and many buildings still retain the style of that time.

This is also the main reason for attracting two people to come and have a look.

The result was naturally disappointing.

The Old Wharf is by no means "old", most of the buildings look more modern.

"Let's go, there's really nothing to see here. Find a place to eat later, and I'll leave after dinner."

Wang Shen lost interest in continuing to play, and it was almost time for lunch, so he picked up his mobile phone to look for nearby delicacies.

There is no shortage of gourmet restaurants in the old wharf. The two chose a local restaurant at random, ordered four or five dishes, and each had a glass of beer.

After eating, the two walked along the Huangpu River to digest and digest.

Zhang Xin remembered that he and Wang Shen hadn't repaid the money he and Wang Shen had borrowed in the year of graduation, so he took the opportunity to repay the money.

"By the way, Great God Wang, how much did I borrow from you back then?"

"Um...the borrowed money plus the food expenses you should share, the total is less than three thousand yuan. I have to check the details. I have an account in my mobile phone."

After speaking, Wang Shen opened the notepad on his mobile phone, and quickly found all kinds of expenditure records from the beginning.

"I'll send you a copy of the document. You can take a look to see if you have any doubts. If there are no problems, you can transfer it to me according to the final total amount."

Zhang Xin received the document sent by Wang Shen through WeChat, and after opening it, he found that every expenditure was very detailed, even accurate to the counting unit of angle.

"How about this, I'll round it up and transfer it to you for three thousand dollars, and the extra will be considered as interest. After all, you don't borrow money for nothing. I know that if you use the three thousand dollars, you may earn more than one thousand dollars." The interest is more than 100 yuan, so don’t think it’s too little.”

Wang Shen nodded in agreement: "It's very kind of you to be able to pay back the money, not to mention that you paid back the interest. Even if you save it in the bank, the interest is only one hundred and ten yuan."

"Okay, as long as you agree. Although we have a good relationship, it's better to be clear about money. After all, there are countless cases where good friends fell out because of money. I don't want our relationship to become stagnant because of money."

Zhang Xin transferred the money to Wang Shen. After receiving the transfer notice, Wang Shen deleted the recorded bill in front of Zhang Xin, indicating that there was no debt relationship between the two.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Shen transferred hundreds of dollars to Zhang Xin.

"This is the expense I need to bear these two days. It's not easy for you, so I won't take advantage of you. When you get rich in the future, don't forget to treat me to a good meal, at least Michelin-level."

Zhang Xin was not polite either, the two of them knew each other very well.

Zhang Xin sent Wang Shen to Hongqiao Railway Station. In order to save a few dollars, Wang Shen did not let Zhang Xin send him out of the subway station.

Just before parting, Wang Shen invited him to go to Sioux City if he had time.

After Wang Shen disappeared into the crowd, Zhang Xin took the reverse subway and returned to Songjiang.
