Although Huang Mude verbally supports Chen Yibing to go out to work and has a slightly changed view of her, in fact, he still thinks that as an Oriental with no academic qualifications and poor English, she will probably have no choice but to find a job in Schaffer. After doing low-level jobs such as serving dishes and washing dishes in a dirty little restaurant, a lady from an old-style big family like Chen Yiping would eventually be unable to stand such work and declare failure.

However, Chen Yibing actually thought about this matter for a long time. During her confinement period, she compared her advantages and disadvantages and finally drew a rough direction for herself.

Early the next morning, Chen Yibing put on a neat pair of trousers. Chen Yibing’s previous clothes did not have trousers. These trousers were made from Lu Yunhe’s unworn trousers. She did not deliberately cut them out. Lines and other things, she was a single woman looking for a job outside, so she tried to blur her feminine features as much as possible, so these pants looked a bit baggy, but they were still within the appropriate range.

The coat was also modified from Lu Yunhe's woolen coat. The fabric of this coat was a bit thick, and it was a bit difficult for Chen Yibin to modify it. Because she was in the confinement period, she didn't work too hard, and it took a lot of work to make the shoulders and Sleeves changed.

Lu Yunhe is about 1.75 meters tall. The coat he wore on Chen Yibing almost reached her knees, hiding her whole body under the coat. Viewed from behind, her female curves were basically covered Now, if she had a neat short haircut, she would look like a thin oriental boy from behind.

Underneath the coat was a hand-knitted sweater she learned to make after coming to Schaffer. At that time, knitted sweaters had not become popular in China. Chen Yiping learned it from Mrs. Liu who was studying abroad next door. Although she knitted very averagely, she was not very good at it. He put it on carelessly, covering it with Lu Yunhe's dark gray woolen coat and a thick camel-colored scarf.

She stood in front of the mirror. Her coat was a little too big, her sweater had uneven stitching, and her trousers were a little fat. The combination of these outfits was actually a bit nondescript, but it was more pleasing to the eye than her Chinese-style jackets, skirts, and cheongsams.

Just like that, she rushed out in the early morning train excitedly. In fact, she wanted to use paper to write some resumes and so on. Later, she found that at the age of 21, she had no experience to speak of, and she did not have the glittering resume in her previous life. , she is now a pure housewife and has no choice but to go out empty-handed.

The bus wandered for more than an hour, and finally arrived at Shaffer City at around nine o'clock. She got off the bus and walked a long way before reaching her destination.

Although she had lived with Lu Yunhe in Shaffer City for a long time in her previous life, she had not really visited the city yet. She only spent time in a corner of the countryside planning food, clothing and housework. Later, when she was in her fifties, she returned to travel. It’s time to take a good trip to Shaffer City.

Go back thirty years and come back here again. Although there are no novel buildings and shops like when I came here in my previous life, some iconic old buildings are still there. This may be the beauty of Shaffer, the perfect blend of old and new. , turning the corner of the famous Bright Brothers Bank, Chen Yibing found where she was going: Schaffer Financial City.

The Schafer Financial City is one of the dozen districts in Schaffer, and it is even the smallest among these administrative districts. It is only one square kilometer, but this square kilometer of land is precious. Here stands There are head offices and branches of major financial institutions in the world, including international banks, securities companies, insurance companies, etc. Various financial institutions form the basic composition of this square kilometer.

Before World War I, it was the most prosperous financial and trading center in the world. Later, due to the impact of World War I, many banks went bankrupt and closed, which directly led to the transfer of its most important international securities issuance business to Wall Street in New York. From then on, Schafer Financial The city is no longer as prosperous as it was back then, and the low tide in the 20 to 30 years after World War I left the place in a state of decline. It has transformed from the financial center with the largest transaction volume in the world to one of the four major financial centers in the world. Although it is still famous, But it's no better than before.

Chen Yiping was walking on the streets of the Financial City. Although there were banks, securities companies and other financial institutions on both sides, the buildings of these companies were not cold high-rise buildings. Instead, they were old-fashioned buildings full of historical flavor, with Baroque and Gothic styles. There are many unique-style buildings, the most famous of which is the Schaeffer Stock Exchange just on the corner of the street.

The Schaffer Stock Exchange is a typical white Gothic building. It is said that this building was built in the 16th century. It has been a historical building for hundreds of years. The complex patterns on the outside of the building attract people every year. The bank spends a lot of money on maintenance, but when you stand in the hall of the exchange, when the sunlight shines in from the circular flower window on the vault, you will feel as if you are standing under the light of the Holy Spirit. You can't help but It makes people want to worship here.

So the building of the Schafer Stock Exchange is not only a symbol of the Schafer Financial City, but the exchange itself is also a giant in the Financial City.

Walking on the streets of the Financial City, there are not only financial institutions that look daunting, but also many small stalls selling food. You can smell these tempting smells, these tempting delicacies and The Gothic architecture weakens the sense of distance given by the Financial City, making people marvel at the beauty of the Financial City.

Chen Yiping was walking on the roadside and was attracted by a stall that had a long line of fish nuggets and chips. She had not had breakfast when she left in the morning, so she waited in line for a while to buy one. Fish nuggets and chips are a long-lasting food in Shaffer City. The Shaver people especially like it. They eat it about two or three times a week on their dining table. The poorer the family, the more they eat it. , because these two foods are very cheap in Schaeffer.

Chen Yiping took the fish nuggets and chips and bought a newspaper from the newsstand on the corner. She found a coffee shop facing the street and ordered a cup of hot coffee. She ate and read the newspaper in the spring breeze in April. find a job.

After reading the newspaper, Chen Yibin began to feel a headache because she miscalculated the economic situation and thought it was the boom period after World War I. It turned out that there were very few job recruitment information in the newspaper, but there were many reports of unemployment, even Several branches of Schafer Financial City closed their doors and returned to their headquarters. After eating, she walked deeper into the Financial City and found that the doors of many buildings and shops were closed, and there were not as many people walking on the street as she had in her previous life. I saw so much when I came here.

People were walking in a hurry, carrying briefcases under their arms, with worried expressions on their faces. Chen Yibing looked at the recruitment information in the Financial City in the newspaper. It seemed that there were only two types of people recruited. One was the top elites, such as CEOs or managers. Although it is rare to recruit high-level talents from outside, the requirements are extremely high. They require academic qualifications, working hours, even companies that have worked for them, and even financial cases that they have taken on. In the end, the exchange of top talents is actually I still rely on headhunting companies to find them.

The second type of people recruited are those at the lowest level in the Financial City institutions, or even non-staff, such as cleaning, security and other types of workers.

In the current economic recession, there are only large-scale layoffs, and everyone is too self-conscious to take care of it. It is rare to recruit ordinary salesmen, and even give ordinary people the opportunity to learn knowledge from the bottom and climb up. Basically There are mostly internal changes of guard. Ordinary employees working in the Financial City will basically not want to change jobs outside the Financial City, because the salary in the Financial City is the highest in Shaffer, and even in the country. Statistics show that the salary in the Financial City is higher than that in Shaffer. 30% more jobs

Whether it is now or decades from now, a decent job in the City is something to be proud of. Although the Financial City gradually lowered its salary due to the economic recession, it was still higher than other places.

But people working in the Financial City now have no idea that a short-term economic boom will be followed by a long period of ice. People in the Financial City still miss the position of the Financial City as the world's financial leader before World War I, thinking that after the war, they will will regain its former status. In fact, the business that was transferred will never come back.

In her previous life, Chen Yibin knew about the short-term prosperity period of the Financial City, and even knew that it only lasted for two years. However, she did not expect that the so-called prosperity did not actually last for two years, but just more than a year. In the second year, the remaining warmth from before continues. When the remaining warmth passes, only the coldness remains. This coldness may even last for twenty or thirty years.

Chen Yibin took the newspaper and went to the first job that caught her eye. A small bank was recruiting account managers. At this time, either the banking industry is booming and needs people to expand its business, or it is this The bank manager did not understand the situation.

Chen Yibing was still doubting whether this small bank was reliable. When she arrived at the bank, she told the front desk staff that she was applying for a job. The front desk staff looked her over and said without even concealing their contempt: "We don't accept Asians. ."

When she heard this was the reason, she turned around and left without even asking. The first one just blew it.

The second one she finally found a job recruitment information from the newspaper's back cover, which asked for a skilled accounting reviewer. Thinking of her skilled abacus skills, she went there excitedly, but the bank here didn't use it yet. Abacus, and there were more than a dozen white people applying for the job at the same time. Before they could interview Chen Yibing, they chose a blonde beauty.

After that, Chen Yiping tried more than a dozen jobs. Basically, half of them rejected her because she was an Oriental, and the other half of them rejected her because she could not provide any proof of education or work. Anyone who does decent work in the Financial City must have these beautiful hardware equipments. Although Chen Yibing is very capable, he doesn't even give him a chance to show off.

Then, Chen Yiping came back and looked for a job for half a month. Even Huang Mude asked her once, but she only said vaguely that she was still looking. Huang Mude had long thought that she could not find a job. When she heard this, It wasn't surprising at all, but she was surprised when she said she found it.

Finally, Chen Yiping found a job as a cleaner.
