Chapter 1 Want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus and wine

"Boss Zhang, I probably won't be able to work overtime at the company during the Chinese New Year this year."

"I haven't been back for two years. And yesterday my childhood friend told me that she's getting married on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. So I was wondering if I could not stay and work overtime this year?"

"But don't worry, Mr. Zhang! I promise to rush back to the company after the second day of the Chinese New Year, and I will definitely not fall behind in my work progress!"

In the general manager's office of Hangzhou Xinghe Media.

Gu Heng slowly poured out the words he had organized for several minutes outside the door to his boss who was sitting at his desk playing on the computer.

After hearing what Gu Heng said, the boss just raised his eyebrows and did not answer.
Seeing his boss's expression, Gu Heng knew that his plan to go back to attend his childhood friend's wedding was probably going to fail.
as predicted.

Two minutes later, the boss saw that the character he controlled in the mini-game had died, then he looked up at Gu Heng.

"Gu Heng, if I remember correctly, you joined the company as an exception, right?"

Hearing this, Gu Heng felt a little more bitter in his heart and nodded slightly.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang. At the beginning, the company required me to be at least an undergraduate majoring in editing and directing for this position. The company treated me well and did not despise me for only graduating from high school and hired me into the company."

He was respectful in words, but was complaining in his heart.

It's true that the company hired me as an exception.

However, in the market, the monthly salary of a dialogue writer is at least 7,000 or 8,000 yuan, if not more than 10,000 yuan.

What about yourself?
After becoming a regular employee, the salary is only 4500 yuan.

Others' probation period is only three months at most, but I was squeezed by the company with a probationary salary of 2500 yuan for seven months before I was finally able to become a regular employee.
Not only that, his workload was several times that of other colleagues in the same position. Fortunately, Gu Heng's greatest pleasure was surfing the Internet. He knew a lot of bad jokes and wrote good lines for scenes. He was still valuable to the company, so he was not fired.
But Gu Heng didn't blame others, he had brought all this upon himself.
If I hadn't listened to those netizens' opinions on the uselessness of studying when I was studying, and thought that I could make a name for myself with my brain even if I graduated from high school, I wouldn't be suffering from academic discrimination in the company now.
The boss had no idea and no interest in knowing what Gu Heng was thinking. He just nodded slightly after listening to Gu Heng's words, then lit a cigarette and said slowly: "Since you know that the company treats you well, why do you still make such an excessive request?"

Gu Heng: “.”

I just don't want to work overtime during the New Year. Is this too much to ask?

Do you really think my dignity is worthless?!

Although I really want to smash the ashtray on the desk into my boss’s 00-yard face, and then take a video to tell netizens that this is how we, the post-s, clean up the workplace!

But when I thought that doing so would not only make me lose my respectable office job with two days off in the eyes of my friends, but also that I might be invited by the police to have tea and spend the New Year in the detention center, I could only give up my own shitty dignity and smile awkwardly.
obviously.

The boss did not notice Gu Heng's mental activities. After gently flicking the ash into the ashtray, he slowly spoke again.

“Well, you are also a veteran employee of the company, so I won’t make things difficult for you.

I'll give you two options.

1. If you continue to stay and work overtime during the Chinese New Year, I will still pay you the overtime pay according to the statutory holiday overtime pay, and I will give you a raise after the Chinese New Year.

Second, if you really want to go back home for the New Year, please hand in your resignation to the HR department after you leave. I will ask the finance department to settle your salary, and you can go back home to have a good New Year. "

After saying that, the boss's eyes turned to the computer again.

No matter what choice Gu Heng makes, what happens next has nothing to do with him.

Although his company is not big, it still has dozens of people. If he has to care about the stay or departure of an ordinary employee, then isn't he a failure as a boss?

Seeing that his boss no longer cared about him, Gu Heng could only smile bitterly and walked out of the office.
In front of the workstation.

After hesitating for a long time, he clicked on an avatar on WeChat and made a voice call.

"Hello? Hengzi, tell me what you want to say. I'm a little busy now."

Listening to the familiar dialect on the phone, Gu Heng hardened his heart and said slowly: "Fengzi, I may..."

But before he could finish his words, he heard a heated argument over there. "What the hell? Two Audi A4s and four Volkswagens, a normal fleet, 10 hours of driving costs 6000 yuan? Are you trying to rob me?"

"The 6000th day of the twelfth lunar month is the busiest wedding day here. yuan is not a lot. If you don't believe me, go check out other rental companies. If the price is lower than this, I'll twist the head off and use it as a chamber pot for you!"

"No, no, it's too expensive. The highest price I found online is 4000! You've paid more than half of that!"

"If you can't accept it, then go look somewhere else. But I tell you, if you leave this door now and the fleet is rented by someone else, you won't be able to rent it again even if you spend 6000, not to mention 1."

"If I can't rent one, then I can't rent one. I don't believe that I can't put together a wedding car fleet without renting one!"

After that, the quarrel on the other end of the phone came to an abrupt end, and then the voice of my childhood friend Fengzi rang out: "Are you still there, Hengzi?"

But at this moment, Gu Heng's thoughts had already drifted to a few years ago.

When I graduated from high school and was planning to go out to work, I once boasted that when some of my childhood friends got married, I would definitely drive a luxury car as the lead car to pick them up.
But now
Although others are complaining about car loans and mortgages, they at least have a car and a house, and they have a dream.
With my salary of 4500, I can't afford a car or a house. Even the house I rent is in the most remote area. I have to change trains several times a day and take the subway for 40 minutes to go to work. I do this for no other reason than to save some money on rent.
But even so, after living frugally for several years, the money I saved was only 8 yuan.
Watching the name of the script that the director of the company used to fill in his own lines
"I want to buy osmanthus flowers and carry them with wine, but it doesn't look like the time when I was young."
This line of poetry, which seemed to be a whining before, now completely penetrates my heart.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Heng made a decision that went against his ancestors!

"Fengzi, don't worry about the wedding car. I saw Xiaohua and Haibin in my circle of friends have bought cars. You can ask them. As for the first car.
Do you remember what I told you before? I will definitely give you the most awesome lead car! "

"Really? You have the guts to do this? Don't try to fool me. My parents have spent half their lives getting married. This is probably the only chance in this life. If you mess it up, I will really bring my wife to smash your windows!"

"rest assured!"

"Okay then, let me see how awesome the lead car you drive back is!"

After hanging up the phone, Gu Heng exhaled the foul air in his chest, directly found a resignation letter template on the Internet, copied, pasted, and printed it out in one go!
Half an hour later, Gu Heng walked out of the personnel office without any hesitation or uneasiness he had before resigning. Even his spine, which was often bent when he had to bow his head to see others, straightened up a little.

He has already thought about it.

After receiving my salary, the total balance in my card was more than 85,000 yuan.

Rent a BMW 730 or Mercedes-Benz S350. Even if the price increases during the Spring Festival, the price for a week is probably less than 2 yuan. When you drive back home to show off, don't worry about whether others will see through you. Anyway, just pretend that you bought it with a huge amount of money! After all, the cost of showing off is too high. After doing it once this year, I probably won't go back for several years.

I don’t want to care about the subsequent chain reactions. After I’ve finished pretending, I don’t care about the flood!
Spend another ten thousand to buy a watch and some expensive clothes to dress yourself up.
The other five thousand yuan is used to buy some gifts for my parents and elders.

Thirty-five thousand is used to show off.

I will use the remaining 5 yuan next year to open a snack stand in front of the university!
Born in 00, he is only 23 years old now. Although the beatings of society over the years have smoothed out most of his edges, Gu Heng still hasn't forgotten that he is still a young man!

The main point is a promising future!
At this moment, Gu Heng's mood was even more excited than after watching the entire episode of Boruto!

The world in my head is still undecided! I am not a beast of burden! As long as I don't lie down, I will eventually come out on top!

At this moment, a bland electronic voice sounded in Gu Heng's mind.

[The lustful male god system has been activated. 】

[From this moment on, every time the host indulges in lust, the system will give cash rewards based on the event. ]

[The host faced his true heart and made a decision to let his mind flow, resigning! And successfully indulged himself once, and rewarded the host with 10 yuan! ]

I originally thought that I had been oppressed by reality for too long, and that I had a short escape, and the pressure was released, and that I had mental problems and was hallucinating.
As a result, the next second, I received a text message on my iPhone 12, which I have been using for three years.
“您的银行卡账户8529，于2024年1月25日收入RMB10万元，交易后余额18.04万元【建设银行】”

Gu Heng, whose brain was a little out of order, was stunned for a moment, and immediately logged into the CCB APP. Looking at the 18 yuan in the balance, he swallowed hard.
Tongzi, are you serious?

I have been working since I was 18 years old, and have always followed what my parents taught me.

When you are out, you should control your temper and endure the troubles.
Over the past five or six years, what made Gu Heng most proud was that he had saved more than 8 yuan. People of his age might still be asking their families for money.
After enduring for so many years, he wanted to be willful for once, but he couldn't endure it anymore. As a result, the system told him that because of his willfulness, he would be given 10 yuan at one time? More than yuan more than his savings over the years?
The first thought that came to my mind was not the ecstasy that the system's overwhelming wealth had befallen me.

But what’s the point of being a man like that for so many years?
If I had been willful earlier, could I have suffered less than two years?

Moreover, I have just encouraged myself and am planning to make a name for myself. Now that I have the system, do I still need to work hard?

What's the fucking difference between this and when you are full of confidence and shouting that your destiny is in your own hands, and your dad suddenly calls you and tells you, "Son, stop working so hard. Come back and inherit the family business. I kept it a secret from you for over 20 years just to test you. I'm actually a billionaire. Come back and lie down and be a waste."
It's not hypocritical.
Sudden wealth or sudden poverty can easily cause a person to lose his or her balance.
