Shihua lowered his head and repeatedly pressed the phone icon with his fingers, but since there was no SIM card installed in the phone, he couldn't make a call or send a text message.
Zhang Zian looked at her lonely look silently, feeling sympathy and sadness in his heart.
He knew that she was very lonely, and he was alone in the small room every day, looking at the world outside the window from the small window, and only occasionally interacted with Fina. He was always running outside a few days ago, and he didn't even say a few words to her.
She is very lonely, because she is neither human nor thinks she is a fish, but a mermaid that may be unique in the world, and there is no one of the same kind.
The other elves in the store, whether cats or dogs, have a lot of companions, and even π has companions, countless monkeys who are typing on the keyboard all day long. Only Shihua has no companions, and was born alone in the world.
She longs to be cared for, so she became addicted to watching Korean dramas famous for their love, because there were other mermaids in the Korean drama she watched, who were cared for by the male protagonist, and finally found happiness.
Who doesn't want to be happy? Even imagined happiness.
She would rather believe that somewhere far away there is a man with a rich family and a handsome appearance waiting for her with a smile. This is her belief, her obsession, otherwise how will she spend the countless days and nights after that
Zhang Zian said, "You just want to make a call, so just say no?"
"?"
Shi Hua raised his head, his eye circles were slightly red.
"I can help you apply for a phone card, and then you can make calls. Not only can you make calls, but you can also send text messages, WeChat, and various communication tools." Zhang Zian said.
"real?"
She smiled in surprise, "You need money for calling, right? But I don't have money..."
"Let's owe it first, anyway, you still owe me a mobile phone, a bubble bath ball, about seven tons of tap water, 50 degrees of commercial electricity..." Zhang Zian counted with his fingers.
"... A-Ze'an, if you are so stingy, you won't have a girlfriend!" She was quite speechless, but her lonely expression also disappeared.
"Quack!... Quack?"
Zhang Zian knew what Richard wanted to say, and before it could actually say it, he picked up the green washbasin and threw it in the direction of the sound, stopping Richard's screaming abruptly.
"However, even if you can make a call, you still need to know the other party's phone number. Do you know the number?" he asked.
Shihua shook his head slowly, "I don't know yet, but I will know."
Although her tone and voice were slight, there was a firm will in them.
"Okay, after lunch, I'll go to a nearby business hall in the afternoon and apply for a phone card for you." Zhang Zian said.
Although you can also apply for a phone card online, it is too slow to send it by mail, so it is more convenient to go directly to the business hall and get it immediately.
"That...that..." She hesitated and stammered "that" for a long time before she whispered, "Thank you."
Before she finished speaking, she had already turned her head to look out the window.
If Zhang Zian remembered correctly, this was the first time she said thank you. Before, no matter what requests she made, she always seemed to take it for granted.
He remembered what Old Cha said, and wanted to wash the lotus polluted by the mud with clean water.
Although it is only two short words, this is real progress.
"You're welcome." Zhang Zian said, "By the way, you owe me the 19 yuan package fee every month."
"Humph! You are stingy!" Shihua turned his head and glared angrily.
Zhang Zian said calmly: "No way, small business, do you think it's easy to make money? I want to spend every penny in half."
"That's why you're stupid! The male lead in the TV series is worth hundreds of millions every minute! The gift for the female lead is either a luxury car or a villa!" she complained.
"You're not stupid, so try to earn money? Don't talk about hundreds of millions every minute, even if it's a few dollars every minute, you can pay back the debt you owe me very quickly, so that I don't have to keep accounts all day long." Zhang Zian shrugged.
"I... If I want to make money, I can make a lot of money right away!" She said sternly, "Yes! I'm so tired from swimming, I want to buy a ticket to South Korea and a first-class cabin on a luxury cruise ship! What a beautiful diamond ring, I am so envious of that fat orange cat!"
"Oh? Then how do you plan to make money? Don't tell me you're selling yourself, and someone has to buy it." Zhang Zian teased deliberately.
"I… "
Shihua rolled his eyes, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
How can she earn money in a bathroom of this size
There was the crackling sound of π typing outside. She heard that π could make money by writing, but she couldn't write, she couldn't even type, and besides, there was no way to get a computer in the bathroom.
She looked down at her phone and noticed the icon of the live broadcast app, and her eyes lit up.
"That's right! I can live broadcast! Just like that woman named Xiaoxue!" She raised her phone confidently, "Should I be able to make money from live broadcasting?"
"Live broadcasting can indeed make money. Although a good anchor can't reach hundreds of millions per minute, I heard that at least one million is earned every day!" Zhang Zian admitted, "But people have special skills, or they have outstanding talents. Either you play the game well, what is your specialty?"
"I..." Shihua was dumbfounded, "I have a very long tail!"
To prove her point, she lifted her strong pale blue tail from the tub, water and foam cascading down her translucent tail fin.
Zhang Zian: "...I advise you to forget it, no matter how long your tail is, how many plates of chopped pepper fish tail can you make?"
"Hmph! A-Ze'an, don't underestimate me! I'm even afraid of myself when I'm serious! Besides, that Xiaoxue has no special skills!" She forced a fierce look, "Anyway, I want to broadcast live! I want Make money! I want to earn millions every day! I... teach me how to live broadcast!"
Unable to withstand her repeated pestering, Zhang Zian had no choice but to download another live broadcast app and teach her how to live broadcast.
In order to put an end to live broadcast chaos, live broadcast platforms are increasingly standardized, real-name authentication is required to become an anchor, and it is not possible to broadcast live casually.
Real-name authentication requires an ID card and a bank card. It is impossible for Shihua to have ID card and bank card information, and it is impossible to borrow from others, so he has to use Zhang Zian's phone number.
It was almost noon, and he was hungry, so he completed the real-name authentication for her with ease.
"A-Ze'an, why are you so familiar with the process?" She asked suspiciously.
"Well...it's none of your business!" Zhang Zian didn't want to answer this question.
Thinking back when he first met Xiaoxue, he was jealous of the many rewards Xiaoxue received, and he also considered live broadcasting to shovel cat shit and earn millions a day, and he really tried it secretly, but of course no one watched it, and it ended up being dismal In the end, it became one of his dark histories that no one knew about.
"Quack! My uncle thinks it's suspicious!" Richard's voice came from outside the bathroom, imitating the tone of a elementary school student who died and said: "Ah, there is only one truth!"
"I went downstairs to eat, and then I will apply for a phone card for you. You can play slowly and familiarize yourself with the operation of the mobile phone. If there is anything you don't understand, ask me when I come back."
Zhang Zian squeezed his fist, and by the way, taught that overly clever gray parrot a lesson.
"Quack! Help! Someone is going to kill the bird! Help!" Richard had a premonition of the danger coming, and before he came out, he fluttered his wings and flew downstairs desperately, trying to escape.
"Yeah!" Shihua casually agreed a few times, lowered his head and fiddled with his phone, all his thoughts were on how to play the live broadcast app.
"Stop!"
Zhang Zian chased after Richard.
He didn't stop Shihua from playing the live broadcast, because he felt that a child like her would only be enthusiastic about the live broadcast for three minutes, and would soon be discouraged because there were no viewers, just like he was back then.
