I found a cell phone from ten years ago.

Chapter 51 Got taken advantage of
The two walked to the Xuezhe Road subway station and entered the subway entrance. Li Xu first went to the ticket vending machine to buy two tickets, and then he and Xiao Yu passed the security check and entered the station.

After waiting for a while on the platform, the subway heading towards Daxinggong arrived and the two lined up to get on the subway.

It takes a total of 10 stops from Xuezhe Road to Daxing Palace.

At the beginning, there were not too many people on the subway, but after a few stops, more and more people entered the car, and it was almost full.

Seeing this, Li Xu asked Xiao Yu to stand at the other door and protected her with his body.

After a few more stops, the carriage will be even more crowded, as many people are going to Daxinggong and Xinjiekou to transfer to Metro Line 3 and Line 1.

Xiao Yu is so beautiful. If someone takes advantage of her, he would suffer a great loss.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Yu asked softly, noticing the faint smile on Li Xu's face.

"How about we take a taxi when we come back?" Li Xu looked down at her and said with a smile.

Xiao Yu had just been calculating finances with him, saying that they should save as much as possible, but this little rich girl obviously had rarely taken the bus or subway and was not at all used to such a crowded environment.

After hearing what Li Xu said, Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked at him with a smile and said meaningfully: "If you don't take the subway, you won't have the opportunity to show off."

The smile on Li Xu's face froze.

This Xiao Yu is not easy to conquer!
When they arrived at Daxinggong Station, they got off the subway and transferred to Line 3, then rode another stop to reach Fuqiao.

After leaving the floating bridge station, Xiao Yu said to Li Xu, "Why don't we go to Huahai first, and if that doesn't work, we can go to Xiongshi and Bainaohui."

The Huahai she mentioned is Huahai Computer Digital Plaza, which is considered to be a relatively large computer city in Jiangning.

Li Xu naturally had no objection.

Xiao Yu asked again: "What's your budget?"

"About four thousand." Li Xu replied.

"Just four thousand?" Xiao Yu was obviously surprised when he heard that.

"This is my first payment for the manuscript, which is the reward income before the novel is put on the shelves. After tax deduction, it is only 4,400 yuan. I have to save some money to treat you to a meal." Li Xu glanced at her and explained with a smile.

Xiao Yu nodded, then smiled and said, "Then your royalties will be higher next month, right? Can you tell me more?"

Seeing Li Xu's hesitation, she jokingly said, "Why, it's inconvenient to disclose?"

"There's nothing inconvenient to tell you."

Li Xu paused and said seriously, "A few hundred thousand, probably not less than four hundred thousand."

After hearing this, Xiao Yu was obviously stunned for a moment, then looked him up and down with a curious look, and said jokingly: "I didn't expect you to be a local tycoon."

In fact, she had checked online a long time ago and found that Li Xu's monthly income should not be less than 10 yuan, and his annual income should be more than one million yuan. If his novel is published in the future, his income will be even higher.

But the figure of a monthly income of four hundred thousand was still a little beyond her imagination.

"My novel was just put on the shelves this month. I worked very hard, and I also saved a lot of manuscripts, so I made quite a bit of money. After I resume updating normally next month, I won't be able to make as much. It will probably be around 100,000 yuan a month." Li Xu explained patiently.

Starting from next month, he plans to slow down the update speed, that is, two updates a day, and occasionally more updates.

Once a novel is finished, its popularity will drop rapidly. In order to maintain its popularity and expand the influence of the IP, "Mystery" will have to be updated for at least a year, or even longer.

You can't finish updating a novel in a few months just to make some quick money.

"One hundred thousand a month is not bad at all!" Xiao Yu looked at Li Xu with admiration.

Not to mention today, even a decade or so from now, a college student earning a million dollars a year writing novels would definitely be considered a young talent. At that time, one million dollars could buy a small apartment in Beijing or Shanghai. In 2010, the average price of housing in Beijing was only yuan per square meter.

"Compared to you, I'm really far behind. You can make so much money by writing books right after entering college. Not only do you not have to spend the family's money, you can even subsidize the family.

And I'm still spending my family's money, and I don't even know if I can find a job after graduation." Xiao Yu said with a smile, a hint of self-mockery in his tone.

After hearing this, Li Xu just smiled and didn't respond.

This Xiao Yu is a bit "Versailles". She is not an ordinary person. Her monthly living expenses are probably several thousand or tens of thousands.

Even if you can't find a job after graduation, you can go home and inherit the family business.

According to Yu Enxin's little insider, she seems to be an only child, and all the family property will definitely be hers in the future.

Some people have to spend their entire lives to stand at the starting line, while others stand at the finish line as soon as they are born.

Rich girls like Xiao Yu are born into a wealthy family.

Huahai Computer Digital Plaza is just opposite the Fuqiao Station subway entrance.

After entering Huahai Building, Xiao Yu said to Li Xu:

"If you spend four thousand yuan on a laptop, you can only buy a low-end one. You might as well spend a little more money and buy a better one. If you don't have enough money, I can lend you one."

Li Xu shook his head and said, "No, I don't play games, and I don't have any requirements for the configuration. I just want to be able to write, look up information, and watch movies."

Xiao Yu listened, nodded, and asked, "What about brands? Which one do you prefer, Lenovo, Dell, or Asus?"

"I'll listen to you." Li Xu said with a smile.

Xiao Yu also smiled at him and said, "Then let's go check out Dell first. The laptop I'm using now is Dell, and it feels pretty good."

She uses a Dell XPS15D that costs more than yuan, and it must feel good. High-end computers from any brand will not be too bad.

The two came to the Dell store on the 7th floor. After shopping for a while, Li Xu chose a silver-white Inspiron 14 at Xiao Yu's suggestion.

The 14-inch display, Core 2 Duo processor, 512MB video memory, 2GB memory, and 250GB hard drive were priced at 4560 yuan, which was finally reduced to 4200 yuan.

There are only three or four low-end Dell computers priced at around 14 to yuan in this store, and the Inspiron is considered to be the most cost-effective one.

There is also an Inspiron M5010 prototype with better configuration and a special price of only 4200 yuan, but the color looks a bit like gold, which Li Xu doesn't like very much.

Carrying his newly bought notebook, Li Xu walked out of Huahai Building and said to Xiao Yu with a smile: "I still have 200 yuan left. It seems that I can't have a big meal. I can only treat you to a simple meal."

"Why do you have to treat me to a meal?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile.

"This is the first royalties I have earned in my life. It has a different meaning." Li Xu looked at her and said seriously.

"If that's the case, then I'm in your heart..." Xiao Yu stopped talking halfway, wanting to say something more.

"Why don't you say anything?" Li Xu couldn't help asking.

"Nothing. Didn't you say you were going to treat me to a meal? Let's go!" Xiao Yu smiled playfully and walked forward first.

Looking at her beautiful back, Li Xu sighed slightly in disappointment.
