Jiang Ning would definitely buy some necessary things after suddenly receiving such a huge sum of money.
The first thing he did was to go to the telecommunications business hall and get a 20m broadband connection.
The Internet speed of the mobile card I usually use at home is too slow. In the era before 4G network, even videos cannot be loaded.
Nowadays, broadband is expensive. A 20m broadband costs 2,500 yuan a year, unlike in later times, when a 200m broadband costs only 360 yuan a year.
It doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive. WiFi is a necessity in life. Having gotten used to the convenient Internet in modern times, Jiang Ning would rather spend a little more money.
He also planned to change his mobile phone. He had this phone that was given away as a gift when he recharged his phone bill for 300 yuan. He usually had QQ and Tiantian Dongting running in the background. The operation started to lag and the phone crashed from time to time.
Even though Jiang Ning has a good heart, he is still speechless when facing this kind of mobile phone.
Jiang Ning was planning to upgrade his phone to Xiaomi 2s, but when he asked several mobile phone stores, they all said they didn't have it. Instead, the store clerks enthusiastically recommended OPPO and Vivo to him, but Jiang Ning politely declined, as these two brands were still high-priced and low-spec these days.
There was a small shop owner who said he could buy Xiaomi phones on behalf of customers, but he would have to pay an extra three hundred yuan. After all, Xiaomi phones are hard to get, and once you get one, you can just raise the price and sell it back.
Many scalpers do this. They grab a Xiaomi phone and sell it for a few hundred yuan more.
Jiang Ning was speechless, and couldn't help but think of the time when he tried to snatch Xiaomi mobile phones but was fooled by Xiaomi many times. Now that Jiang Ning is not short of money, he will not do such stupid things again.
He turned and went to the Apple store next door. When he was a student, Jiang Ning was very envious of his classmates who used Apple phones and praised them for being easy to use, the user-friendly system, and the smooth transition animations.
There are countless Apple fans on the Internet who regard Apple as a god. If you dare to say anything bad about Apple, they will criticize you all the way to your ancestors.
Nowadays, in the small city of Yuzhou, apples are still the symbol of quality, and young people who use apples have a slight sense of superiority.
Jiang Ning is not that fanatical. To him, Apple is just an ordinary mobile phone. It's just that he didn't own one at the age when he wanted it the most. Although he bought the latest model later, he no longer has the same feelings as before.
Jiang Ning spent more than 4,000 yuan to buy a white iPhone 5 with 32GB of memory. Why didn't he buy the black one
Because the black paint is peeling.
If you calculate carefully, the iPhone 5s was also released at this time, but it will still take two months before it arrives in China, so you can just buy one then.
Jiang Ning didn't use a screen protector or a case for his phone. With his quick reaction, he would never drop his phone.
As for the scratches on the screen, he mastered various spiritual arts and kept his body clean at all times, so there was no dust at all.
For those who regard their mobile phones as heirlooms, the methods of immortal cultivators are definitely what they dream of.
Jiang Ning went to the store next door and bought two sets of clothes. The Adidas clothes that his uncle had bought for him before were now a bit too short as he had grown taller.
Jiang Ning did not buy Adidas. A series of wise operations made by this brand in later generations made him have a bad impression of it. The price was high and the quality was so-so. Like other brands, it was all OEM.
The main reason for such a high premium is that the marketing is good.
Jiang Ning is not a person who values brands. The iPhone is priced at a premium because in this era, whether it is the screen, performance, system, camera, or texture, it surpasses Android phones. He thinks it is worth it.
As for Adidas, he felt it was not worth it. There are also some good brands in China. He picked out two sets of clothes, but the prices were not as high as those of Adidas, so it was really cheap.
Then he went to the supermarket to buy rice, flour, oil, a large bag of snacks, and various dried fruits and candied fruits.
I went to the market again and bought some pork ribs, beef, and fruit. I didn’t buy much, just enough for him to eat for a day or two.
The rented house didn't have a refrigerator, so Jiang Ning didn't go to the trouble of buying one. He knew a little about formations, so he casually set up an ice formation, which was much more effective than a refrigerator.
Jiang Ning tied the things to the back seat of the mountain bike and the horizontal bar in front, and the mountain bike was armed.
Today's total consumption is less than ten thousand.
On the way home, Jiang Ning saw some people selling candied haws on the street, so he ordered two strings of mixed fruits, including hawthorn, orange, kiwi, etc.
He also saw some rock sugar water and taro and sago ice water for sale. They looked thirst-quenching, so Jiang Ning ordered two portions. He took them away and cast two ice spells to ensure that they would remain icy cold when he got home.
Then Jiang Ning didn't hesitate any more and rode away on his bike.
After crossing the dam, I saw Xue Yuantong sitting in front of his house enjoying the cool air from afar.
Xue Yuantong saw the rice, flour and oil on Jiang Ning's car and wanted to help, but when she saw the snacks on it, she couldn't help but hesitate: "What if he thinks I'm helping him just for the snacks?"
'Am I that kind of person?'
Seeing Xue Yuantong's hesitation, Jiang Ning shouted:
"Xue Yuantong, come and help me. I bought some sugar water."
"Well, okay." Xue Yuantong tied her ponytail with a rubber band, rolled up her sleeves, and prepared to get to work, only to find that the short-sleeved shirt she was wearing was useless.
She picked up the oil barrel and went back and forth twice, putting everything back in place.
Xue Yuantong naturally wouldn't be thinking about sugar water and candied haws. Is she that kind of person
Xue Yuantong walked forward slowly, expecting Jiang Ning to call her. But when she was about to leave, Jiang Ning still didn't speak, and Xue Yuantong became anxious.
Xue Yuantong snorted in his heart and quickened his pace. At this time, Jiang Ning shouted:
"I bought a lot of sugar water. Let me share some with you."
It was like walking in a vast desert and suddenly stumbling upon an oasis. Jiang Ning's words made Xue Yuantong swallow uncontrollably.
She held the cup of sugar water that Jiang Ning had given her, feeling the coolness of the cup on her skin, and her mood suddenly became cheerful.
"Okay, then I'll try this dessert for you to see if it's authentic, so you don't get ripped off." Xue Yuantong said calmly.
"Okay, okay." Jiang Ning said, "I'll give you a bunch of candied haws, too."
He handed over one and bought two because he thought of Xue Yuantong. He sold the gold under her house for tens of thousands of yuan and spent a dozen yuan on her. It wasn't too much, right
Xue Yuantong's expression remained calm, but her heart was slightly disturbed. Jiang Ning had been taking good care of her recently. Apart from her parents, she had never felt such care before. So she couldn't help but think back to the past, and those things that were not easy to remember came to her mind.
The icy temperature that continued to come from the sugar water cup made Xue Yuantong cut off those memories. The sugar water and the candied haws were icy cold, and the hot summer did not seem to heat them up, which showed how fast Jiang Ning rode his bike. Although she was very happy to eat something cold in the hot summer, she was worried about Jiang Ning at this moment.
"Ride slower next time. I know you're a good rider, but going too fast is dangerous. There are often children rushing up to the sides of the dam."
Xue Yuantong frowned and reminded seriously.
"Okay, I remember." Jiang Ning nodded seriously, as if he really took Xue Yuantong's words to heart.
Xue Yuantong was very satisfied and brought a small stool for Jiang Ning. The two of them sat at the door, drinking sugar water and eating candied haws together.
Aunt Gu, who was busy in the room, smiled after seeing this scene. She suddenly felt that her daughter Tongtong and Jiang Ning were quite a good match.
"Mom, have some candied haws. Jiang Ning gave them to me." Xue Yuantong trotted over.
