My Side Job is a Trader

If the main project on the second day is sightseeing, then the third day is the real entertainment experience.

Although the Shanghai Stock Exchange is also a coastal city, there are really no soft beaches for leisure and entertainment. The slightly more qualified ones are close to Zhejiang Province, which is too far away from the SJ area, so I don’t usually bother to go there.

Now that it's hard to come to the beach, if you don't swim a few laps, it must be a waste of time.

After taking out the swimming equipment that had been prepared, I came to the beach for a look, and instantly lost the interest to go into the water.

I saw people everywhere, a small bathing place, and the density of the crowd was staggering.

Sure enough, no matter where you go in China, the number of people is always an unavoidable problem.

When he came to the seaside, Zhang Xin found that the unsatisfactory place was not only the crowds, but also the seawater here was not very clear. I don't know if it was caused by the crowds being too dense.

Fortunately, there is also a jet ski experience project next to it. It cost a hundred and ten yuan to get rid of the addiction of racing on the sea.

In the afternoon, I learned from the tour guide that Haizhou's specialty is snacks made of various seafood, and you can basically buy related food in major chain supermarkets across the country.

I made a phone call with Li Xueer and told her that the so-called special products of Haizhou are nothing more than some seaweed, dried fish and other seafood products. If you want, he will buy a few boxes and send them to her.

In the end, Zhang Xin asked the store to send several boxes of special products directly by courier after payment. Basically, there were all kinds of special products, and Zhang Xin also took into account that Li Xueer would share with her roommates and ensured that the quantity was sufficient.

The last stop is the East China Sea Crystal City.

Donghai is worthy of being known as the hometown of crystals. There are shops selling crystal jewelry everywhere on the street. When you walk into any shop, you will feel dazzled by all kinds of crystal fans.

Not to mention women, even straight men like Zhang Xin think Crystal is very beautiful.

After choosing a relatively large store, Zhang Xin began to carefully select all kinds of crystal jewelry. He wanted to buy several sets of crystal jewelry for Li Xueer, including earrings, necklaces, rings, bracelets and anklets.

The reason why I need to buy several sets is mainly because Zhang Xin found that each color of crystal is very beautiful. If it can be worn on the naturally beautiful Li Xueer, it will definitely add a bit of charm.

The price of a single piece of jewelry may not be expensive, but it costs a lot to buy several sets, which makes the colleagues around look at each other, thinking that Zhang Xin is simply too arrogant.

Just when everyone thought it was over, Zhang Xin discovered that there was another kind of bracelet made of tourmaline, so he also added it.

When passing by an antique shop, Zhang Xin couldn't help but walk around and found that the shop made all kinds of retro accessories with crystals, such as many hairpins and step shakers. Zhang Xin imagined that Li Xueer was wearing an ancient costume. The appearance of the hairpin, I thought it should be not bad, so I bought a few more crystal hairpins and step shakers.

In just half a day of hard work, almost a year's salary was spent.

When Ou Xiaoyong and others from the same project team saw Zhang Xin carrying crystal ornaments with both hands full of big bags, they were very surprised.

Because in their impression, Zhang Xin is relatively restrained in spending money, and he doesn't have a famous brand all over his body.

"Brother Xin is bleeding profusely today. Didn't he buy it for his girlfriend?"

"I also bought some amethysts for my family. They said that wearing them is good, but I don't know. Whether it's good or not, just buy them."

"Brother Xin is domineering, these stores like bold tourists like Brother Xin."

But although he said it nicely, he was thinking in his heart that the salary of the technical department of the company was only at this level. Looking at the big and small bags in Zhang Xin's hands, at least half a year or even a year's salary would be gone, which was very abnormal.

Of course, no one talked about him. After all, Zhang Xin spent his own money, and he could buy whatever he wanted, that was his own right.

After a day of shopping, everyone was quite tired, and most of them still couldn't resist the charm of crystals, so they bought a few more or less, but there were almost no ones like Zhang Xin who returned with a full load.

The original plan of the company was to take the bus back in the afternoon, but later I felt that the schedule was really tight, and because tomorrow is Saturday, I don’t have to go to work anyway, so I stayed with the hotel for one night generously, and returned to Shanghai the next morning. Only then did everyone have time to shop in the afternoon.

In the evening, I video chatted with Li Xueer as usual, and told her that Haizhou’s specialty snacks have been delivered to her, but it’s best to bring a friend with you when you go to pick up the delivery, after all, the quantity is a bit large.

This also made Li Xueer a little speechless. Originally, she just wanted Zhang Xin to buy some for her to taste, but Zhang Xin sent several large boxes by mail.

"It's okay. If you can't finish eating, share some with your classmates and friends. If you share one point, you will lose it."

"Uncle, I know that earning money is not easy even before I left school, so don't spend money randomly just to please me."

"Okay, I'll pay attention later."

The two of them lingered for an hour before reluctantly waving goodbye.

It wasn't long before the two of them started dating, so they didn't think it was enough to be bored every day, and they didn't feel bored. They never got bored with each other. Zhang Xin also began to gradually regain the feeling of being in love that he had lost in college.

After returning to the Shanghai stock market, Zhang Xin did not go out the next day. After meditating in the morning, he went back to sleep and finished a rare mid-day practice at noon. Only then did he feel refreshed. Although he did not play in Haizhou for three days What, but it is still very tiring. In the words of many people, traveling is simply spending money to make money.

As soon as he started working on Monday, Zhang Xin received an internal email from the CEO of the company, explaining to everyone the difficulties of layoffs some time ago, and then said that the company’s development encountered a bottleneck and needed everyone’s encouragement to move forward. Finally, he decided to learn a lot The practice of major Internet companies has begun to implement the 996 work system.

After reading the eloquent thousands of words, Zhang Xin was immediately overjoyed. He was thinking about what excuse would be more appropriate to leave the job, but he didn't expect someone to bring him a pillow when he fell asleep.

After waiting for a while, guessing that everyone should have read this email, Zhang Xin found Ou Xiaoyong.

"Brother Yong, is it convenient?"

Ou Xiaoyong looked at him: "What's the matter?"

"Let's find a place to talk, I want to say something."

Ou Xiaoyong turned off the computer screen, and then signaled Zhang Xin to follow him.

The two came to the open-air balcony on the second floor, where no one disturbed them.

"Brother Yong, have you checked your mailbox?"

Ou Xiaoyong nodded.

"Okay, then I won't be around the corner anymore, I may have to resign."

After listening, Ou Xiaoyong asked in surprise: "Resign? Why? Are you not satisfied with your treatment?"

Zhang Xin shook his head: "It's not a salary issue, the main reason is that I can't accept the 996 work system. I'm in a relationship now, and I spend a long time every night. If I get off work at nine o'clock in the evening, I'm going to bed after washing up at home. Give me time to talk about love."

"You don't even need a job just to fall in love?"

Ou Xiaoyong, who has been married for many years, has no idea that someone will give up his job in order to fall in love. For him, work means having income and being able to support the family, so work is the most important thing.

After a long silence, Ou Xiaoyong asked: "Then did you find it at home?"

Zhang Xin shook his head: "No, didn't this happen suddenly? You don't think I want to change jobs, do you?"

"Don't think about it again? You have been in the company for half a year, and I can apply to the higher-ups for a raise in your salary."

Ou Xiaoyong also wanted to keep them. After all, the cost of recruiting new employees is relatively high for the company. Under normal circumstances, it is not easy to dismiss employees or let them leave.

After Zhang Xin knew the company's business model, he just wanted to get out as soon as possible, so he was very firm: "This is not a matter of treatment. Brother Yong, you should understand me. It's not easy to meet a girl who looks at each other well. I value this very much." A relationship, I can even sacrifice my job at any time for her."

Zhang Xin had already talked about this, and Ou Xiaoyong couldn't say anything more: "That's fine, you can directly send the resignation letter to Mr. Zeng, and prepare to go through the resignation procedure."
