Chapter 59 A Day with Yang Ying
"Thank you for your help. I didn't expect it to be finished so early today." Mao Xiaoyu said as she walked downstairs after leaving the house.
After all, Yang Ying really helped a lot today. Usually when they go to bail people out, Mao Xiaoyu is too young and not very trustworthy. Sometimes some tenants also ignore Mao Xiaoyu.
But this time, with Yang Ying by his side, people came along with Mao Xiaoyu out of consideration for the girl.
When they arrived, they found the environment acceptable and the price reasonable, so they rented it. As a result, the two of them only spent two hours catching people before they were all caught.
"Your job looks so easy. You earned 500 yuan in just two hours. Think about me as a model. I work like crazy all day and only earn 500 yuan. There's no comparison." Yang Ying said enviously as she followed Mao Xiaoyu downstairs.
Because a few tenants were still there, Mao Xiaoyu only earned about 500 yuan on the street today, besides collecting money from them. Even so, Yang Ying was quite envious.
"That's not how it works. Once you become famous, you'll naturally earn more. But my potential is very limited. I can't earn more even if I want to. At most, everyone will raise the bed rent together, and I can only add a little bit. Otherwise, this is all I can expect in the future," Mao Xiaoyu said truthfully.
"Even so, at least you're earning quite a lot now," Yang Ying praised.
"It's just a little money. Let's go, have lunch first, and then go out and find a place to have some fun." Mao Xiaoyu felt it was past 12 o'clock, so she was thinking about where to have lunch.
"Speaking of food, I'm really hungry. Where should we go for lunch?" Hearing that they were going to have lunch next, Yang Ying touched her stomach and realized she was indeed a little hungry.
"I usually eat at street food stalls, since I'm eating alone and it's fine as it is. But since you're here today, let's find a place to have a proper meal. What would you like to eat? Chinese, French, Japanese? You can choose whatever you like," Mao Xiaoyu asked.
"Let's go eat at a street food stall. Eating other things is expensive and not very tasty, so it's better to eat at a street food stall. I did the same thing when I was in Hong Kong. After taking photos as a model, I would often eat at a street food stall." Yang Ying is not earning money yet, so the life she enjoys is the most basic kind of life.
"Alright then, let's go eat at a street food stall first, finish eating early, and then go to the Shanghai Zoo. That way, if we eat for too long and don't have time to go, we can always find a good restaurant to eat at after we get back from the zoo tonight." Hearing that Yang Ying wanted to eat at a street food stall, Mao Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
After all, in Mao Xiaoyu's view, the other party had already seen her work today, so what was the big deal about eating at a street food stall? It's not like she couldn't eat it; she could just treat him to something better later in the evening.
Since the two of them decided to eat at a street food stall, Mao Xiaoyu took Yang Ying to the place she often ate at. After all, she didn't feel comfortable going to other places. The environment and food here were acceptable, and at least the food hygiene and safety were passable.
When the two arrived at the restaurant, Mao Xiaoyu spotted Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei at a glance. However, since Yang Ying was with her, she greeted them from a distance and then helped Yang Ying get a fast food meal. Afterward, she got a bottle of Sprite for each of them.
Because Yang Ying was with Mao Xiaoyu, Mao Xiaoyu didn't plan to go to the Liu, Guan, and Zhang trio's group today. Instead, she ate lunch at a table not far from the three of them.
When Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei saw that Mao Xiaoyu hadn't come over, they knew why. After all, Yang Ying was such a big person, it wouldn't be easy to bring her over.
However, after Liu, Guan, and Zhang finished their meal, Old Zhang and Old Guan left first, and Sister Liu hesitated for a moment before coming over.
"Yes, Sister Liu has finished eating." Seeing that Lao Guan and Lao Zhang had left, Sister Liu came over, and Mao Xiaoyu greeted her.
"I've finished eating, I've finished eating. I just happened to see you here, so I came over to say hello. I hope I'm not in the way?" Sister Liu said politely.
"What's in the way? Come, sit down." Although she felt that Sister Liu was getting in the way, Mao Xiaoyu still generously invited Sister Liu to sit down.
"I won't sit down. I just want to tell you about what happened yesterday. After thinking about it all night, my husband has agreed in principle to start a company. But as you know, there are some things we're doing for the first time, and we don't know anything about them. So when do you have time, we can all sit down and talk about it again," Sister Liu asked.
"As you can see, it's definitely not possible today. At the latest, it will have to wait until tomorrow. If your husband is in a hurry, you can have him call me tonight, and we can talk about it over the phone. Actually, as long as the general direction is right, the rest are minor issues. Of course, if you're not in a hurry, I'll come to your house for dinner tomorrow night, and we can discuss the company contract then," Mao Xiaoyu said.
"Okay, no rush. Come to my house tomorrow night to talk, and we'll discuss it then." Sister Liu glanced at Yang Ying, knowing that now was not the time to discuss business, and then arranged a time.
"Sure, just like yesterday, I'll come to your house at the same time tomorrow," Mao Xiaoyu agreed.
"Alright, that's settled then. I won't bother you anymore. Have fun, you two." Seeing that the business was done, Sister Liu didn't want to stay and be a third wheel, so she left directly.
"What does Sister Liu do? What company business did she want to discuss with you?" Yang Ying had overheard the conversation, but she was a bit confused. Now that Sister Liu had left, she asked curiously.
"It's nothing, just preparing to invest in a company. You don't think I'm just someone who collects bed fees, do you? Just kidding. I have other businesses too. For example, investing is one of my businesses. Her husband is preparing to open a company to run a hospital cafeteria, and I'm planning to get involved," Mao Xiaoyu said pretentiously.
"It must cost a lot of money to book the hospital cafeteria, right?" Yang Ying asked.
"Not bad, 6 million over 600 years. At this price, we should still be able to make a profit," Mao Xiaoyu said boastfully.
However, Mao Xiaoyu wouldn't say what exactly happened with the 6 million over 600 years. She only planned to invest in one or two shares, and of course, she definitely wouldn't say that, because it would lower her status if she did. Only by talking about it in a grand way could she appear to be showing off.
"Oh, 6 million over 600 years, that's a lot of money!" Yang Ying exclaimed in surprise.
"What's the big deal? It's just that kind of thing. It's good in some ways, but hard to earn in others. It seems like 6 million in 600 years is a lot, but honestly, if you do it well, you can get your principal back in one or two years, and the rest is pure profit." Mao Xiaoyu said with a disdainful look.
"What you said really discouraged me. I wish I could earn a million a year!" Yang Ying said enviously.
"Keep it up, work hard, you'll definitely earn a million in the future, and much more. But that's all in the future. Right now, our main priority is to finish our meal and hurry up to catch the subway to the zoo. It'll take a long time to get there by subway."
"Okay, I'll eat." Yang Ying stuck out her tongue and started eating her lunch.
In just over ten minutes, the two of them finished their meal and then hurriedly left the restaurant to catch the subway to go to the zoo.
Shanghai Zoo is located at No. 2381 Hongqiao Road, Changling District, Shanghai, adjacent to Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport. It covers an area of 74.3 square meters, with a building area of 4.72 square meters. It was originally built in 1954 and was formerly known as Xijiao Park.
The park houses and exhibits more than 5000 animals of over 470 species, including rare and endangered species unique to China such as giant pandas, golden monkeys, South China tigers, and Yangtze alligators, as well as representative animals from around the world such as African lions, giraffes, kangaroos, and gorillas.
The zoo currently has five main exhibition areas: birds, primates, carnivores, herbivores, and amphibians and reptiles, with a total of 22 animal exhibits, including the ring-tailed lemur enclosure, the carnivore ecological area, the squirrel monkey ecological area, the amphibian and reptile pavilion, the chimpanzee ecological area, the Asian elephant enclosure, the giraffe pavilion, the tropical herbivore ecological area, the herbivore area, the lion and tiger mountain, the panda ridge, the Brazilian wolf ecological area, the wading bird ecological area, the swan lake, the parrot enclosure, the flamingo enclosure, the aviary, the penguin pool, the peacock garden, the emu enclosure, the goldfish corridor, and the butterfly pavilion.
"You said we were coming to have fun, so why did we have to buy a digital camcorder? It cost over 6000 yuan, that's so expensive!" Yang Ying couldn't help but complain as they arrived at the zoo entrance.
Originally, they just came here to have fun, but unexpectedly, Mao Xiaoyu saw a store selling digital cameras on the way and suddenly had the idea to buy a camera to record today's trip.
(After all, Yang Ying is with me. If I don't take a couple of photos while traveling with her, it would be a shame.)
So Mao Xiaoyu took Yang Ying into a digital video store and spent half an hour buying a digital video camera. The video camera cost more than 6000 yuan. Fortunately, the store accepted credit cards, otherwise, they really wouldn't have had enough cash.
This action prompted Yang Ying to complain, feeling that the money was too expensive. Mao Xiaoyu didn't say anything, after all, it would be more meaningful to take the photos and keep them for later.
"It's not expensive at all. What's so expensive about a camera? It's only a few thousand dollars, and it's not like we'll only use it for one day. We'll need it later."
"Come on, smile, I'll take a picture of you." Mao Xiaoyu fiddled with the camera, preparing to take a picture of Yang Ying at the zoo entrance.
Upon hearing that photos were to be taken, Yang Ying took her position and struck a pose. And I must say, she has a strong sense of the camera, befitting a professional amateur model.
"Okay, that's a really nice pose. Give me a smile, and I'll take another picture of you." Women love to be praised, so Mao Xiaoyu praised her while taking the picture.
After taking a few photos at the zoo entrance, the two bought tickets and entered the zoo. Once inside, seeing the adorable animals, Yang Ying was even more enthusiastic than Mao Xiaoyu, snapping photos of them with her camera.
Mao Xiaoyu followed Yang Ying and accompanied her as they explored the zoo.
Following the crowd, the two saw monkeys, flamingos, rhinos, camels, crocodiles, peacocks, hippos, vultures, and other animals along the way, which was quite an experience for them.
However, because the zoo has more than 400 kinds of animals and covers a huge area, Mao Xiaoyu and Yang Ying played until the zoo closed at night and still didn't see all the animals.
No, I should say we haven't even seen half of the animals yet; there are still more than half of our animals that we haven't seen.
Even so, the entire camera's memory card was filled with footage, which made Mao Xiaoyu realize just how much Yang Ying had filmed.
Most of the photos were of animals, with a few of them featuring Mao Xiaoyu and Yang Ying. To make the trip more meaningful, Mao Xiaoyu asked some tourists to take several photos of her and Yang Ying.
Seeing the cameras full of footage, Mao Xiaoyu thought to herself that she needed to buy a computer and some USB drives to store the photos; otherwise, she would have nowhere to put them.
Although they didn't get to see all the animals in the zoo, it was closed, so the two of them had to leave with regret. They then took the subway to the city center.
This time, Mao Xiaoyu finally decided to have a big meal with Yang Ying, which cost them more than 2000 yuan.
Although the cost wasn't too high, it was enough for the two young people.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Mao Xiaoyu took Yang Ying back to her maternal grandmother's house.
"Will you come to see me again tomorrow?" Standing outside Yang Ying's grandmother's house, Yang Ying looked at Mao Xiaoyu, who was about to leave, and asked.
"Sure, but as you can see, I have things to do every day. At least this afternoon I have to go to the hospital to bail someone out." As she said this, Mao Xiaoyu made a gesture as if she were bail someone out.
"Okay, then come find me tomorrow, and I'll go with you to get them out of here," Yang Ying said happily.
"Okay, but it might not be that early tomorrow, it'll be a little later."
Mao Xiaoyu figured that since she hadn't gone to the real estate agency today, she would definitely have to stop by the agency tomorrow morning, which would make her arrive a little later. So she postponed their meeting.
"Oh, it's okay, I have nothing to do anyway," Yang Ying said.
"Alright, go ahead and go. Don't go back too late and worry your grandma," Mao Xiaoyu advised.
"Then I'll go up. Be careful on your way." Yang Ying was still a little reluctant to part with Mao Xiaoyu.
"Go ahead, go ahead, see you tomorrow." Mao Xiaoyu waved her hand, telling her to go up directly.
After Yang Ying slowly went upstairs, Mao Xiaoyu left and took a taxi straight to her apartment.
Half an hour later, Mao Xiaoyu was almost home when her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and saw it was a QQ call.
Brief news.
Mao Xiaoyu opened QQ and found that it was Yang Ying who had sent her a message: "Have you arrived home yet?"
Upon seeing this message, Mao Xiaoyu felt something was off, like a middle-aged man trying to trick a young girl into dating him.
However, Mao Xiaoyu also enjoyed it.
The two of them then started chatting on QQ.
