Rocky accepted his invitation. The cafeteria provided burgers, sandwiches, pasta and the like. The two of them came down to eat about 20 cents.
It doesn't sound like much, but it is also a big burden, especially for the poor family, who needs to rely on scholarships and part-time jobs to maintain his livelihood.
When I came to the door, Joey was already waiting, reading professional academic journals.
"Joy." Saying hello, Li Zitao pointed to Rocky beside him: "My roommate, don't mind him coming together!"
"No problem, do you have a car?" Joey asked.
"My car was driven away." Li Zitao shook his head.
"No." Rocky also shook his head.
"Go to the school cafeteria! Other places are too far away." Joey set the place in the cafeteria. Rocky had no opinion. What he thought was the cafeteria.
Li Zitao also had no opinion. He just wanted to invite the two to have a meal.
Pretending to beep, even if it is expensive, is not enough to show his composure. The state banquet can be eaten every day.
Pit
A little deep horn sounded and looked up, it turned out that Tia was back, and the first officer was sitting with two men in work clothes.
"Is something brought back?" Li Zitao stepped forward and looked at the body of the car, which was filled with various daily necessities.
"Velvet bedding, radios, leather chairs, small wardrobes and clothes for everyday use." Tia explained the same as she pointed at the contents.
These are bought according to Li Zitao's habits. He likes to listen to the radio when he relaxes and likes soft and comfortable seats.
The clothes should be changed every day after taking a bath. If it is not forbidden, I believe he will definitely put a wine cabinet in the bedroom, which is specially used to put his ‘drinks. ’
"303, just put it inside, it's hard work." A tip of 10 dollars was given, and the key was given to the worker. Li Zitao said to Tia; "Go with me for dinner."
"My life consultant, Tia, this is Joey, a student advisor, Rocky, my roommate." Li Zitao introduced Tia to the two.
"Hello." The two sides greeted each other, and did not change their goals, but moved towards the school cafeteria.
"You just gave the worker a tip of 10 dollars?" Joey asked in a slightly mysterious whisper.
"Uh... is there something wrong?" Li Zitao said blankly.
"It's nothing, it's okay." Joey shook his head, his expression didn't look like it was okay.
Rocky also had a weird face, and there was a tip of 10 dollars to move such a thing.
If he weren’t afraid that the two strong men who got tips would kill himself, he would now like to say to the new roommate; "Leave this job to me!"
Lao Mei will not be embarrassed by this kind of thing, as long as it is based on the money earned by their labor, they will never feel that there is a difference between high and low.
Originally, I didn't want to ask each other's personal questions, but in the end Lodge still couldn't help asking: "Just now, was it your car?"
"F931, less than 500 yuan." Li Zitao explained.
"That's an astronomical figure, enough for my six years, six months, and fourteen days of food expenses...if food prices don't rise," Rocky said.
5 cents for breakfast, 8 cents for lunch and dinner, 21 cents a day, and 6.3 dollars a month. This is what he spends on food.
"Are the students here the same?" Li Zitao asked in surprise. The food cost of 21 cents a day really scared him.
"Mostly, there are few opportunities for part-time work, and the economy is not good, you know." Joey gave him a deep look.
If he can help, it is great news for the school and the students.
So far, Joey only knew that his face was somewhat familiar, she didn't pay much attention to economic things, and there were messy reports.
To the rich, Joey's attitude has always been: no hatred, no attention.
She was not interested, and had no time to see which club those rich people went to today, which Hollywood star had rumors, or which company was acquired.
To waste time on these'junk' information, it is better to find ways to help students contact more business positions that can provide part-time jobs.
"McDonald's, I think you know." Joey suddenly slowed down and walked side by side with him. "It provides tens of thousands of jobs for college students and unemployed people throughout the United States."
"Is there anyone in our school also working part-time?" Li Zitao showed admiration, "That's a responsible company."
"Yes, Lawrence, he is from the Rockefeller family, and they will always assume the social responsibility they should bear." Joey answered very positively, it sounded like she admired Rockefeller very much.
"Rockefeller is the pride of America, and I really hope to work for them after graduation." Rocky was also excited to mention the name.
"But as far as I know, this cannot be decided by Lawrence alone." Li Zitao grinned and wanted to hear people's comments.
"But this must be his proposal, and there is still a meal, and he announced that it will be implemented in all McDonald's stores." Joey said in an undoubted tone.
"Yes, Lawrence is really amazing. Without him, McDonald's may not appear." Rocky resembled Yingsheng, and once again agreed with her point of view~EbookFREE.me~ Because of Lawrence's relationship, they said between them. Endless, Li Zitao seems to have become a marginal figure.
Fortunately, the cafeteria finally arrived.
A simple long chair, a square table, and then placed a few tables on the right against the wall, with a bamboo basket on top, covered with white gauze.
On the left side of the table is a sign that says ‘6.5 cents for burgers, 8 cents for pasta, 3.2 cents for sandwiches, 2.5 cents for milk, and coffee—’
"Why pasta is the most expensive?" Li Zitao asked curiously.
"Because there are vegetables and bacon in it." Joey answered his question.
"There are four pasta, sandwiches and burgers." Li Zitao finished looking at the people around him. "Do you want milk or coffee?"
"Coffee." Joey and Rocky spoke in unison.
"Milk." Tia asked for a different one.
"3 cups of coffee, 1 cup of milk." After ordering, the total cost was less than US$1, and the price was so cheap that Li Zitao doubted his life.
"No need to look for it." Li Zitao said habitually after taking out the change of $5.
"It seems that I'm going to spend 4 years in college with the rich." Lodge said jokingly, he was not malicious for Li Zitao.
Li Zitao is not like the children of other rich people. He disdains the poor, scornful eyes, and discriminatory tone, as if they should not live in this world.
Moreover, the rich roommate also invited him to a rich lunch.
After paying the money, two plates were added to each person's hand, and the pasta was filled with tall piles, then two broccoli, and a small piece of bacon.
That bacon is really small, about 2cm wide and 3cm long.
After seeing it back and forth several times, Li Zitao wondered if it was enough to stop his teeth. As for other foods, he could only describe it with misery.
