Upon hearing Ling Yi's words, Lin Yuya immediately backed down. " Old Zhao definitely won't agree; it's too late!"
Although she calls him " Old Zhao" all the time, it's only in private.
She wasn't like Ling Yi; she was genuinely afraid of her teacher.
"Day students, go home early and be careful on the way. Boarding students, don't wander off. Go back to your dorms right now! If I find out anyone's skipping their dorm, hmph!"
Old Zhao gave them some instructions, then waved his hand, signaling the students to leave.
Seeing Ling Yi, Chai Zhiwei, and Lin Yuya still there, Old Zhao frowned and said, "What are you waiting for if you're not leaving?"
" Old Zhao, I'd like to invite you to dinner, are you in?"
Zhao Wen was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Ling Yi suspiciously and asked, "What are you up to now?"
"Hey Old Zhao, aren't you overthinking this? I just wanted to treat you to a meal because I see you've been working hard. You eat at home anyway, don't you?"
"Don't you know the saying, 'Unsolicited kindness is either a swindler or a thief'?"
But then, Old Zhao changed the subject. "What dish?"
"I'm making braised goose in an iron pot for lunch!"
"You guys go ahead, I'm going back to my office!" he said, and walked out of the classroom.
When Lin Yuya heard Ling Yi mention stewed goose in an iron pot, her mouth watered.
Meanwhile, Chai Zhiwei, who was standing next to him, really wanted to join in.
Ling Yi is amazing! He's only been here a few days and he's already so familiar with the homeroom teacher?
After Old Zhao left, Lin Yuya exclaimed, "Wow, Ling Yi, you're going to make braised goose in an iron pot for lunch?"
"Yes, a nine-pound goose, a whole pot, smells amazing!" Ling Yi laughed heartily.
Of course, at noon Ling Yi not only stewed goose, but also went to Shen Bin's place to explain some things.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
He paused, then asked, "May I go and call Yanzi?"
"Go ahead!" Ling Yi naturally had no objections.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuya turned and ran out.
" Old Chai, let's go together!" Ling Yi called out to Chai Zhiwei.
"Oh dear, is this appropriate?"
"It's just a meal, what's there to be inappropriate about!"
Chai Zhiwei wasn't one to be pretentious, so he nodded and followed Ling Yi outside.
"Don't you live in the dormitory?" Old Chai asked.
"Yes!" Ling Yi nodded. There was nothing to hide, and besides, it was impossible to hide it anyway.
"How did you do that?" Chai Zhiwei was very envious.
But as much as he admires him, he might not actually go to live off-campus.
Unlike Ling Yi, he felt that living in the dormitory was just fine.
Every night, I chat with my roommates, play cards, and read novels; it's quite fun.
If he lives off-campus, all by himself, what's the point?
Despite his unconventional thinking and intelligence, this guy is actually a very rule-abiding person at heart.
The two waited at the door for a moment, and then Lin Yuya ran over with Yin Qingyan.
Yin Qingyan was in Class 1, which was only one classroom away from Class 3, not far at all.
Then, the four of them walked towards Ling Yi's courtyard.
Just as Ling Yi brought out a large pot of stewed goose, Old Zhao arrived.
Seeing such a large pot of vegetables and smelling the delicious aroma filling the room, Old Zhao couldn't help but smile.
Putting everything else aside, this kid's cooking is truly exceptional.
These days, teachers' salaries aren't high, and Old Zhao really can't bear to spend the money on a meal like this when things are going smoothly.
Old Zhao originally intended to go back to his office to retrieve his half-empty bottle of wine, but ultimately didn't.
If it's just Ling Yi alone, then there's no problem.
Ling Yi is different from other students; she possesses an unexpected maturity.
But it wouldn't work with Lin Yuya and the others around, since drinking in front of students is ultimately not a good thing.
"You're living such a comfortable life!" Old Zhao said enviously as he sat down in the chair.
"Let's eat! Just so you know, the goose leg is mine!" Ling Yi said, scooping a piece of goose leg into the dish with his chopsticks.
"Oh no, there are only two goose legs, give me one!" Lin Yuya also reached out her chopsticks to grab it.
And he successfully snatched the goose leg before Ling Yi could, then exclaimed, "This is huge!"
In general, the goose legs in stewed goose in an iron pot are cut open.
But Ling Yi didn't worry about that this time. This time, the stew was cooked for a longer time, so he wasn't concerned about the goose legs not being flavorful or not being tender enough.
Ling Yi was just putting on an act; otherwise, with his speed, how could he possibly fail to snatch it?
However, after Lin Yuya grabbed the goose leg, she didn't eat it herself first, but put it in Old Zhao's bowl.
"Teacher, this is for you!"
Not bad, she knows the rules and knows how to be filial. It seems this little girl is quite worldly-wise!
Old Zhao chuckled and put the goose leg back into Lin Yuya's bowl, saying, "My teeth aren't good, I can't eat this, you eat it yourself!"
The claim that he has bad teeth is obviously false; he's not even forty yet, his teeth are excellent, and Everything Tastes Delicious.
How could he possibly have bad teeth?
"Hehe, thank you, teacher!"
" Yanzi, let's share this goose leg. I can't eat this much by myself!"
The goose legs were stewed until tender, Lin Yuya easily separated them with her chopsticks, giving one to each of her and Yin Qingyan.
Then Lin Yuya couldn't wait to take a bite, her eyes immediately narrowing into slits, her cheeks puffing out like a little hamster.
With his mouth full of grease, he exclaimed, "Delicious! Delicious!"
Yin Qingyan was a little reserved, especially with the teacher present.
Chai Zhiwei is the same.
Old Zhao picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. "Hmm? Hmm, it's flavorful, not too salty or bland, just right!"
"Absolutely! Isn't it incredibly fragrant?" Ling Yi laughed heartily.
After the two of them said that, the atmosphere immediately improved a lot.
Chai Zhiwei and Yin Qingyan also started working.
" Ling Yi, your stewed goose in an iron pot is better than any restaurant chef's!" Yin Qingyan exclaimed.
"It really smells amazing!" Chai Zhiwei also gave Ling Yi a thumbs up.
The group quickly relaxed and began to enjoy their meal.
Just then, the phone in the room rang.
Ling Yi walked over and answered the phone; the caller was Shen Bin.
" Ling Yi, the internet was installed for you this afternoon, but it won't be activated until tomorrow. I've put the Key in the crack in the wall next to the main door; please keep it safe later," Shen Bin said.
"Yes, thank you!"
Shen Bin's tone became somewhat excited. " Ling Yi, I've already called the owner of the Computer mall in the city, and he's very interested in our proposal."
"If this works out, Dragon City Internet Cafe will have fifty Computer available."
Ling Yi nodded and said, "Don't offer too much of a share, no more than 10%. No matter what they say, stick to this principle. After all, there's more than one Computer store in the mall."
"Also, have him handle the delivery arrangements, and then sign a contract for at least three years."
"Remember this: no contract, no business," Ling Yi cautioned.
Shen Bin nodded excitedly. "I understand. In that case, the internet cafe will make 140,000 yuan a month, and 1.4 million yuan a year."
"Only 140,000? That's too little." Ling Yi shook his head.
"Wow, bro, 140,000 a month, and you still think it's not enough?"
"Is it a lot? This is just Little Qian. The management software is the Big Head expense. You'll understand later. By the way, if other internet cafe owners come to test this out, just reveal this model to them."
"Why?" Shen Bin asked, puzzled.
"Hehe, of course we're going to lure them in. These people are just small-timers, not even close to scale, how can we compete with them?"
"Remember this: software is the Big Head. Oh, and set aside 100,000 for me this month to buy a server. You know what a server is, right?"
"I know, but..."
"Come over tomorrow at noon, and we'll talk then!"
"OK!"
After hanging up the phone, Ling Yi noticed that Chai Zhiwei and the others were looking at him with curious eyes.
" Ling Yi, what are you busy with?" Old Zhao asked, frowning.
Ling Yi didn't hide anything and briefly explained his collaboration with Shen Bin.
But after hearing Ling Yi's words, Old Zhao's face didn't look too good.
" Ling Yi, your primary task right now is to study!"
Ling Yi shook his head and said, " Old Zhao, I've already finished the senior year curriculum and am now self-studying materials science and advanced Physics."
"Therefore, even if I take the college entrance exam now, I can still get good results and choose from all the universities in the country."
Old Zhao was stunned. "Really? Are you that amazing?"
"If you don't believe me, go back and find a set of college entrance exam papers, go through them once, and you'll see."
"Okay!" Old Zhao believed it in his heart, but whether he believed it or not, he wanted to test it out so he could have a better understanding of the situation.
"But isn't it a bit too early for you to be thinking about making money right now?"
Ling Yi shook his head again. "My purpose in making money is not for making money!"
Zhao Wen rolled her eyes. What do you mean, "The purpose of making money isn't to make money"?
This sounds awkward, but there's nothing you can really refute it.
Moreover, Ling Yi was clearly hiding something.
The specific reasons are definitely not something Ling Yi should reveal right now, otherwise many things would be impossible to explain.
Old Zhao finally realized that his student was too prodigy; he simply couldn't teach him or manage him.
"I only hope you don't go astray and don't disappoint Old Yan and me."
"Teacher, please rest assured!" Ling Yi nodded solemnly.
Old Zhao stared at Ling Yi for a long time, then finally patted him on the shoulder without saying anything.
The three people beside Chai Zhiwei looked at each other in bewilderment.
The three of them all had the same feeling right now: Ling Yi is amazing.
Let alone the three little ones, even Old Zhao Chai Zhiwei finds Ling Yi as an Heavenly People genius.
How old is this kid? He'll only be 17 after the New Year, right?
You can earn tens of thousands a month now, and you're still not satisfied? You still think it's not enough?
His monthly salary is only eight hundred!
Compared to Ling Yi, I felt like I had lived in vain, which made me very depressed.
And where did this kid learn Programming?
Even if Programming can be self-taught, where did he learn these business ideas? Even if Zhao Wen doesn't understand business, she knows how brilliant Ling Yi's operational methods are.
"Alright, we've eaten, let's go!" Old Zhao called out to Chai Zhiwei and the others.
None of the three boys actually wanted to go back to the dorm.
Lin Yuya and Yin Qingyan didn't want to go back because there was good food at Ling Yi's place.
With so many rooms in Ling Yi's courtyard, there shouldn't be any problem for each of them to have their own room, right?
Chai Zhiwei was curious about Ling Yi Ling Yi had many questions for her, and he didn't want to go back.
But since Old Zhao had spoken, they naturally dared not say anything.
On the way back, Old Zhao Human Dao, "Don't compare yourself to Ling Yi. That kid is no ordinary person."
"You should not follow his example. Your main task right now is to study hard."
Chai Zhiwei shrugged and said, "Teacher, we can't learn it, we just can't!"
Lin Yuya and Yin Qingyan both nodded!
Zhao Wen thought about it and agreed, so she said no more.
After escorting the three students back to their dormitory, Zhao Wen did not go home but returned to school. Tonight, she would be working overtime to grade students' exam papers.
Ling Yi, meanwhile, had already opened Baidu again.
Search: Major events from 1997 to 2000!
Ling Yi examined each item one by one, and the more he looked, the more Ling Yi brows furrowed.
Ling Yi's memory of many things has become blurred, given the decades that have passed.
Looking at the search results, Ling Yi sighed, "Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do right now; it's still too slow!"
Although Ling Yi Revive and brought back Baidu a Chinese search engine) from his mind, there are many things he can neither change nor stop now.
"If we could bring the biochip phone over..." Ling Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he shook his head helplessly.
He can't even handle a 223 New Energy, so biochip technology is even less likely to succeed.
