Chapter 426: Accumulation
It’s just a pity that in this life, it can no longer be.
Qin Xiangmei is not Grandpa Mao; she is just Qin Xiangmei, a golden phoenix who flew out of the mountains and became a mother turkey when she fell into the city.
But Qin Xiangnuan listened to these stories without allowing the name Qin Xiangmei to linger much in her own life. Even if they became Emperors, what did it have to do with her?
A while ago, Jian Zhiqing said he needed to borrow Conghua for a few days to go out. Now that he’s gone, it seems much quieter at home. What he is borrowing Conghua for, he wouldn’t say; all secretive—no, more like crafty and energetic.
She didn’t care much about it anymore, focusing on being busy at school. The seniors had already graduated, and now it’s not bad, some even assigned to jobs. If their families were a bit better off, they could land a really nice job; and for those with just average family conditions, as long as they worked hard, they wouldn’t fare too badly.
The last anniversary celebration at Jing University was quite a moment for the design department, showing that their students had skills, technology, and brains. They were seen as material worthy of becoming designers and the future hope of the nation’s fashion industry. Plenty of employers have come over and snapped up many talented students, just waiting for them to graduate and join their ranks. And her senior peers seemed proud, modest as they might be, already seeing themselves as the new stars of the fashion world. To this, Qin Xiangnuan could only respond with a chuckle.
It’s unpredictable where their future achievements will lie—perhaps they’ll reach great heights.
However, from what she knows, if history doesn’t deviate, none of the designers from Jing University’s recent cohorts have made a name for themselves. She knows the direction fashion will take in the future, but whether others understand that, they must follow history and the times.
A few months later, with the new year approaching, it just happens that the new internet cafe building is finished ahead of schedule. The accounts for the café are settled, and Jian Zhiqing found some connections to get a batch of almost new computers. They’re not brand new, but in terms of appearance and performance, they’re close, and most importantly, they’re nearly half the price. This means that the old internet cafe can also upgrade its computers. We’re slowly transitioning to an era of high tech. The internet cafe now has more and more customers, and the daily turnover is frighteningly high, so even replacing all the old computers isn’t considered excessive and will attract even more patrons.
