Chapter 171 Learning Paper Cutting
Chapter 171 Learning Paper Cutting
As for 15 to 20, Bai Xi thought about it and came up with an auspicious number, giving each person .
As for the bodyguards, each of them was given 1.8 million, also for the sake of luck.
Bai Xi divided the money and asked Qiao Na to call everyone to collect the money.
As soon as the money was paid, the villa became more lively than ever before.
The bodyguards were happy to receive the money - but they had made more money before and it didn't make them lose their composure.
But the gardeners and aunts couldn't help themselves. They really didn't expect that the year-end bonus could be equivalent to half a year's salary.
Several people were so happy that they danced and kept bowing to Bai Xi.
It took Bai Xi several attempts to persuade him before he finally calmed down.
After everyone received their money, she announced the next thing, "I'm leaving in the next two days. After I leave, everyone clean up the house and you can have the holiday."
"My school starts on February 2th, you just need to come back on the 19th."
Now everyone is even happier, with more than 30 days of annual leave, paid vacation, and a large bonus, it’s so wonderful!!
Everyone happily took the money and returned to work.
Bai Xi stopped the four bodyguards and said, "I want to go home, but you can't all be away. My idea is that at least two of you should be on duty. You can arrange your vacations."
Lin Yi stepped forward and said, "No problem, we'll take turns."
Compared to his previous life of protecting wealthy people or politicians, where he had to be extremely alert whenever he went out, he still prefers this kind of life where he can take shifts and doesn't have to be too tense.
Although I used to earn tens of thousands of dollars an hour, I didn’t have work every day, and I risked my life to make four or five million a year.
Now I work comfortably and earn four or five million.
The key is: meals are provided and year-end bonuses are given!
"Okay, then one of you can go and rent a house in my neighborhood first, preferably in the same unit. I'll reimburse you for the rent."
Lin Yi: "The money you gave me before is enough, don't worry, Miss, I will make arrangements."
That's it.
After all the money that should be distributed was distributed, Bai Xi kept one million yuan for the remaining money, and the rest had to be piled in the safe for the time being.
After packing up, she called Feng Jiu, "Come over here."
As soon as Feng Jiu arrived, one million in cash was thrown into his arms. Seeing his astonished expression, Bai Xi laughed.
So this is the joy of throwing money at people? ! !
Really happy!!
On the second day of the holiday, early in the morning, Bai Xi's WeChat group became lively. Shen Zheng asked, "When are you all going home? Have you bought your tickets?"
Li Yuanquan quickly followed up the topic, "Li Zhenzhen and I bought the ticket together. We will leave at noon tomorrow."
Bai Xi was not happy with this. "Li Yuanquan, our friendship between the front and back desks, have you forgotten me and only remember Li Zhenzhen?"
Li Zhenzhen sent a voice message, "Well, didn't we all think you had to take a plane?"
"Although the plane is faster, it takes two hours to get to and from the airport, and you have to arrive at least an hour in advance. It's much faster to go to the train station. So, I chose the train, which will also be at noon tomorrow."
You must experience the charm of the Spring Festival travel rush!
"What time do we leave?" Li Zhenzhen asked.
"12 o'clock."
At this time, Gao Jun, who had been in hiding for half a year, interrupted, "I'm here at 12 o'clock tomorrow too, so we should be in the same car. Which car are you in?"
Tang Zicheng spoke up at this time, "I guess Bai Xi is in business class."
Bai Xi: "No, it's three and a half hours, there's no need to lie down, I'm in first class. Tang Zicheng, aren't you going?"
Tang Zicheng quietly dropped a bombshell, "I'm already home! I just got off work yesterday, so I took a taxi straight to the train station."
Li Zhenzhen sighed, "We just got our day off today, you guys got your day off so early! Then Bai Xi, why haven't you left yet?"
Bai Xi was about to say that she had something else to do, but Tang Zichen was one step ahead of her: "Our Bai Xi is no longer just an ordinary Bai Xi. She is now President Bai, so of course she is busy!"
Bai Xi: "Stop being so sarcastic. I just have a little bit of work to do. I will be back tomorrow."
Li Yuanquan suggested, "How about we have a dinner together when we get back? Let's sign up..."
After everyone agreed on the dinner arrangements, Bai Xi sat on the sofa and began to think about what gifts to bring back for his father and aunt when he returned home for the New Year.
After thinking for a long time, I decided that in addition to the starry sky watch that Patek Philippe had given me, I could also buy some clothes for my father, uncle, and aunt.
Of course, you have to buy it yourself.
Yes, there is one. The watch I bought from Vacheron Constantin last time is very suitable for my eldest brother, so my second brother should also have one.
Even if a bowl of water is not balanced, you can't be too biased.
So: I have to buy a watch for my second brother.
Then, buy some good tea? ?
My father likes to drink Dahongpao and my uncle likes to drink Pu'er, both of which cost several hundred or at most a thousand yuan per pound.
Bai Xi took out a piece of paper, wrote down a list, and then she went shopping.
Bai Xi hasn't been shopping for a long time. She dedicated her weekends to the ski resort. When she first arrived at the mall, she was stunned!
So many people!
Looking at this bustling shopping mall, Bai Xi suddenly felt like he was returning to the mortal world.
But there are too many people, right?
Is it on discount?
She walked into the shopping mall. There were many red lanterns hanging in the hall inside the mall. There was also a large zodiac statue next to it. There were also people cutting window decorations, writing couplets, and drawing sugar paintings on the spot.
Year-round.
Of course, there were a lot of people surrounding it.
Despite this, Bai Xi still squeezed into the crowd. Xiao Shi always complained that he did not do a good job of live streaming, and now the opportunity came suddenly.
Of course I have to seize the opportunity.
She walked over and learned how to cut paper-cuts from the teacher inside, starting with the simplest "喜" character, then the "福" character, the "春" character, and more complex patterned paper-cuts.
As for learning, it is naturally not always smooth sailing. There are many cases of cutting badly, cutting in pieces, or cutting incorrectly.
Bai Xi spent more than half an hour cutting paper-cuts. He learned a few words of blessing and some simple flower patterns.
I don’t know where the mall invited the old craftsman from, but he never bothered me and answered every question I had.
But Bai Xi couldn't get it for free, so after finishing the learning process, she bought some complex window grilles inlaid with wooden frames.
Of course, the price is not expensive, ranging from 30 to 50 per ticket depending on the difficulty.
After learning paper cutting, Bai Xi walked out of the crowd and asked Xiao Shi: "How was the response to the live broadcast..."
Xiao Shi was silent for a while, then answered, "Everyone is paying a lot of money to buy red paper!!"
"Does it cost a lot to buy paper?"
"We have been working without paper for hundreds of thousands of years..."
Bai Xi snorted, bragging! ! There are still hundreds of thousands of years, "What about wiping my ass?"
Xiao Shi felt his non-existent hair explode, "You're vulgar!!"
What's wrong with me being crude? Who can resist the cycle of reincarnation?
Bai Xi continued to ask, and Xiao Shi's tone was full of helplessness, "First of all, you have flush toilets in your era, let alone ours. Second, most people take nutritional supplements, which can all be absorbed by the human body and do not need to be excreted..."
Oh……
There is no toilet at home.
What if…someone…eats…meat!!!
What's on the street?
Don’t…dare…think about it!
