Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Early Registration

Bai Xue sat in the living room, suddenly feeling somewhat superfluous.

She looked around and suddenly picked up her still-unopened school bag. "Xiao Yu! I’m going to find my desk-mate! See if she has any interesting books!"

"Oh." Zhen Yu felt nothing special, still thinking that Bai Xue really meant it.

She calmly nodded her head, stood up, and saw Bai Xue out.

——

On the 30th morning, the three members of the Zhen Family took the earliest bus to Qi City with large and small packages.

When they arrived at Qi City No.1 High School just after eight o’clock, Grandpa Wang, the gatekeeper, still remembered these three ladies, and warmly led them to handle the enrollment procedures.

"Why have you come so early? You are the first students of this year’s cohort to report!"

Mrs. Zhen vaguely said, "We just happen to have some things to handle, so we came early."

"There are advantages to coming early!" Grandpa Wang led them to the boys’ dormitory building. "You can pick the best beds first in the dormitory! If you come late, you’ll have to make do."

As an experienced resident, Zhen Yu knew too well the rules, and agreed, "Yes! Coming early allows you to choose a bed by the window, and you can pick any cabinet and bunk."

"Haha! If I didn’t know you attended middle school near your home, I would really think you had stayed in a dorm!" Grandpa Wang’s words made Zhen Yu’s heart flutter a bit.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhen and Zhen Yan had grown accustomed to her occasional odd behaviors, so they never exposed her in front of others.

Grandpa Wang stopped outside the window of the first-floor of the male dormitory, introduced them to the dorm supervisor, and then turned to leave, but Mrs. Zhen quickly called after him.

"Brother Wang, I mentioned last time that I wanted to treat you to a meal! What time do you get off work tonight? Shall we find a restaurant outside the school?"

"No need! Really no need!" Grandpa Wang waved his hands repeatedly. "It was just a little help, really not worth mentioning!"

Mrs. Zhen went over the words taught by her daughter in her mind again before speaking, "We actually came early because we really have something! You are being so polite, I feel embarrassed to ask for your help again!"

"This, this, do you really have something?" Grandpa Wang clearly didn’t expect Mrs. Zhen to ask him for another favor, and at this point, not accepting the meal seemed like he’d be unwilling to help, making it hard for him to refuse now.

"We really have something!" Mrs. Zhen spoke very earnestly, "We’ll talk about the details while eating tonight, okay?"

"That’s fine!" After some thought, Grandpa Wang agreed. "I get off work at 5 pm, just come and find me at No. 1 High School then!"

"Alright! Then Brother Wang, please go ahead with your duties! I’m going to settle my son."

"Okay!"

——

Zhen Yan’s dorm room was on the sixth floor, room 606.

"All fees are to be collected on September 1 by the teachers! Just take your things and go up!" said the dorm supervisor as he handed Zhen Yan a key and pointed to a large stack of luggage in the corner.

The school was still on summer vacation. Zhen Yan picked up a set of luggage, and Mrs. Zhen and Zhen Yu accompanied him to the sixth floor.

After cleaning up and choosing a top bunk near the window and an edge cabinet, and setting up the bed, an hour had passed.

"There are still many things your brother needs! This mattress won’t do! Too thin! And this quilt won’t last through the winter! It’s nearly September, and there are still mosquitoes? We need to buy a mosquito net! There are also basins..."

Mrs. Zhen sat on Zhen Yan’s lower bunk, resting while listing the items they needed to buy. Zhen Yan was excited, and Zhen Yu, having been busy for half the day, was also quite tired; neither paid much attention to Mrs. Zhen.

Ten minutes later, Zhen Yu was the first to stand up, "Lock the cabinet, lock the door, let’s go!"

"Okay!"

The three of them greeted Grandpa Wang at the school gate and then headed straight for Xu’s Martial Arts School.

"He! He! Ha! Ha!" As soon as he entered the door, Zhen Yan’s six senior brothers were practicing their punches.

"Brothers, I’m here!" yelled Zhen Yan.

"Ah! It’s Little Seven!"

"Master! Little Seven is here!"

Xu Lin walked out from the inner room, and Zhen Yan quickly stepped forward, "Master!"

"Hmm. You came early?"

"Yes! I came early! Can I start learning today?"

"Sure!" Xu Lin nodded very readily, and then turned to call one of his disciples, "Linzi! You take Little Seven!"

"Yes!" The tallest boy among the six stepped forward immediately, standing out from the rest.

---

Mrs. Zhen gave Xu Lin a meaningful look, prompting him to head for the inner room first.

After they settled down with specific seats for host and guest, Mrs. Zhen pushed a red packet to Xu Lin, "This is Xiao Yan’s tuition fee, please take good care of him and nurture him well, Brother Xu!"

"Don’t worry! I really like this kid, I will definitely teach him wholeheartedly!" Xu Lin sincerely replied.

Mrs. Zhen smiled, "Master, my daughter and I need to find a place to stay for a couple of days, do you know if there’s any guesthouse nearby?"

"There’s one right under the building to the east of this one."

Mrs. Zhen immediately stood up, "Alright! We have some things to take care of, so we’ll leave first. Zhen Yan can stay here and learn, and we’ll come pick him up in the evening."

"Sure! You can leave him to me with confidence!"

Mrs. Zhen and Zhen Yu each carried a bag, left the building, and walked eastward, soon spotting the guesthouse.

Using Mrs. Zhen’s ID card, they booked a room with two single beds.

After sending the guesthouse staff away, the mother and daughter sat on the beds to discuss their itinerary for the moment.

"Mom! Remember, we’re opening a ’computer game room’, not an internet café!"

"I know, I’ve got it!"

After receiving the demolition compensation, Zhen Yu carefully thought through the process of opening an internet café.

It turned out the plan was momentarily unfeasible.

She couldn’t remember if the first internet café appeared in Beijing or Shanghai in 1996, but it was definitely in a first-tier city, which already had broadband.

But Qi City was a fourth-tier city! Zhen Yu recalled that before her middle school exams in her previous life, Teacher Qian buying a computer was all the buzz at Siying School, and everyone was immensely interested in dial-up connections and internet!

Listen! The touching sound of dial-up! That thing charges by data usage! Who would dare use it to run an internet café!

Therefore, Zhen Yu concluded! Qi City’s network development definitely had the same issues! So an internet café is out of the question for now.

However, Zhen Yu could settle for the next best thing, opening a computer game room first! Once the reborn people start making big moves and broadband emerges, she could go to the government to change the license and pull in the internet wires, effectively elevating the game room to an internet café!

Zhen Yu handed a note she had already written to her mother, "Today, you must find out all the procedures for opening the game room because tomorrow is Saturday!"

"This is really tight timing!" Mrs. Zhen realized immediately, if she didn’t get it sorted today, they’d be off for the weekend tomorrow!

After all, she had managed the procedures for setting up Shoe City by herself; though the game room might not be exactly the same as Shoe City, both were businesses, so the process of obtaining a business license must surely be the same!
