Fifty million a day, trapped in the county town, can't spend it all.

Chapter 15: I wonder if the photos have been photoshopped.

Zhang Yang clicked on the cartoon avatar and entered her Moments.

Many photos appeared in my WeChat Moments. I randomly clicked on one, and a woman with an oval face appeared on the screen.

The woman had fair skin, her long hair was tied up in a bun at the back of her head, revealing her fair and smooth neck, and her eyebrows and eyes were like paintings, and her lips were like cherries.

Her business attire accentuated her curvaceous figure.

Zhang Yang stared at the photo for a long time before he remembered who the woman was.

It turned out to be Luo Qingqing, the most beautiful girl in my class in high school. We hadn't seen each other for over ten years since we all went off to university. I never expected that we would still have each other on WeChat.

Zhang Yang stared at the nickname and was speechless for a moment, unable to recall why he had called her "class beauty" back then.

Perhaps it was just youthful ignorance!

Returning to the chat window, Zhang Yang typed a few words and sent them: "Hello, class beauty."

"Is it really you?" The other end replied quickly. "I thought it wasn't you. If I hadn't seen that the job posting you sent mentioned Mou County, I wouldn't have dared to send the message."

"It's me, it's me."

What does your company mainly do?

"Investment company, what's up? Is the class beauty interested?" Zhang Yang typed and sent quickly.

"I'm tempted to give it a try."

Our company's workplace is located in Mou County.

"I'm in Mou County."

"You're back too?"

"Yeah, I just quit my job and came back a month ago."

"Isn't this a perfect coincidence? So, are you planning to stay in Mou County for a long time? Or...?"

"Once I find a suitable job, I don't want to go out anymore. I don't feel a sense of belonging when I'm away from home."

"Okay, what position would you like to try? The new company has just been established and we're short of everything."

A few seconds later, the other end replied: "I'd like to try for the position of HR Director."

"What did you major in at university? We have strict requirements for this position; you must have relevant work experience."

"I majored in Human Resource Management and have been working in related fields since graduation. I have worked in several large factories in Chengdu."

"Understood. So, when would you be free tomorrow to meet and talk?"

"That works. Shall we meet on the shopping street across from our old high school?"

See you at 2 PM tomorrow.

The class beauty sent a rabbit making an OK sign emoji at the end.

Zhang Yang put his phone in his pocket and leaned back in the recliner.

The system panel popped up without warning:

[Today's cashback has been issued: 50,032,800 yuan, transferred to your savings card ending in XXX7.]

Zhang Yang turned off the panel expressionlessly and continued to enjoy the evening breeze.

It's a new day again...

Very bored.

Are all wealthy people's lives this simple and unpretentious?

I spend money too slowly on my own, but once the company is fully operational, it should be able to quickly burn through some of the funds.

......

The next day, early in the morning.

Zhang Yang got up early and was eating breakfast in the main room when she heard her mother Chen Xiuyun's voice in the courtyard:

"Rou-mei, have you eaten yet?"

"Good morning, Third Aunt. I've already eaten at home." Chen Rou, carrying a bag, walked into the courtyard and asked:

"Is Brother Yang awake yet?"

Chen Xiuyun paused for a moment: "He's up. He's having breakfast in the main room. Would you like some more?"

"I'm not going to eat with Auntie anymore. I'm going to find Brother Yang to talk to him about something."

"Go."

When Zhang Yang heard the voices, he had already gotten up and walked outside.

"What's wrong? What do you want?"

"I forgot to ask you last night, are those brand-name or regular equipment?"

"Then it definitely has to be the best quality."

"Alright, I'll go check out a few tea factories around here first."

"Oh, by the way, where's the car you arranged for me?"

As the two were talking, Xiao Li parked his GL8 not far away.

Chen Rou looked at the words "Business Reception Only" on the car and exclaimed, "Wow, bro, are you that powerful? You called in a car from the China Merchants Group for personal business?"

"Stop being so sarcastic and get to work." Zhang Yang rolled his eyes at her.

Chen Rou stuck out her tongue, grinned, and ran to the car to run errands.

After watching the car drive away, Chen Xiuyun walked over and asked, "Son, what's going on?"

She pointed to Chen Rou, who was leaving in a car.

"Didn't Rou also quit her job and come back? I'm starting a company and need an accountant, and Rou happened to study finance, so I asked her to work for me."

"That's good too. I feel more at ease using someone I know well..."

Zhang Yang: "..."

......

The morning passed quickly. Zhang Yang pondered his next move. He had too much money, and it was increasing by 50 million every day. He felt uneasy if he didn't invest it.

After lunch, Zhang Yang took a nap, glanced at the time, and realized it was almost one o'clock.

He got up, tidied himself, and prepared to meet his high school class beauty. According to the agreed time, it would take at least half an hour to get there, but after so many years apart, it was better to arrive early...

He straightened his collar in front of the mirror, and a thought inexplicably popped into his mind: I wonder what she looks like now, and whether the photos on her social media have been photoshopped.

Zhang Yang arrived at the commercial street opposite the high school ten minutes early.

It's been a few years since I last came here, and a lot has changed. The milk tea shop I used to frequent is closed and replaced by a real estate agency. The noodle shop on the corner is still there, but the signboard is much dimmer than I remember.

He stood at the intersection and lit a cigarette.

Just as I was finishing my cigarette, a white Tesla pulled up in a parking space on the side of the road.

The car door opened, and a woman got out.

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment.

The photo wasn't photoshopped.

She's even more beautiful in person than in photos.

Luo Qingqing was wearing a light blue shirt, and her hair was a little shorter than in the photo. She closed the car door, picked up her bag, turned around, and immediately saw Zhang Yang.

She smiled, greeted us, and walked over.

"Extroverted?"

"Luo Qingqing." Zhang Yang stubbed out his cigarette. "Long time no see."

"It's been a long time." Luo Qingqing looked him over. "You've changed a lot."

"I'm getting old." Zhang Yang waved his hand with a smile. "Let's go, let's find a place to sit down."

"There's a coffee shop across the street; I just passed by and saw it."

The two walked side by side toward the coffee shop. Zhang Yang glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw that Luo Qingqing was half a head shorter than him. Her hair was blowing in the wind as she walked, and it had a faint fragrance.

In the coffee shop, the two found a seat by the window.

Luo Qingqing ordered a latte, and Zhang Yang ordered an iced Americano.

"When did you get back?" Luo Qingqing asked first.

A few days ago.

Luo Qingqing stirred her coffee. "It's good that you're back. I've been in Chengdu for six years, and I'm tired."

Zhang Yang nodded, picked up his cup, and took a sip of coffee.

"Your company," Luo Qingqing looked up at him, "is it yours?"

"Otherwise what?"

"I'm just a little surprised." Luo Qingqing smiled. "I remember you were just an ordinary person back in high school, and now you've started a company."

Zhang Yang rolled his eyes: "Does this have any necessary connection to starting a company?"

Luo Qingqing laughed out loud, her eyes curving into two crescent moons.

Looking at that face, Zhang Yang suddenly thought of the words: "Beauty is a curse."

Luo Qingqing is indeed very beautiful. She has completely shed the naivety of a girl from her school days and now exudes the charm of a mature woman.

Zhang Yang isn't the kind of person who can't resist beautiful women, but as a man, he knows how to appreciate them.

At that moment, a flood of youthful memories rushed back, and he was momentarily stunned.

Luo Qingqing waved her hand in front of Zhang Yang's eyes: "What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Yang coughed lightly, gave an awkward laugh, and then cut to the chase: "What were the specific reasons you resigned from your last job?"

Luo Qingqing's expression froze for a moment before she realized that this wasn't a normal chat between old classmates. She then sat up straight, ready to speak.

Just then, Zhang Yang's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was the manager from Moore Department Store calling.

Zhang Yang felt a surge of excitement; it seemed there was news from the shopping mall.
