Chapter 3 Are you rich?

The girl stopped kicking Alex's legs and leaned against the car window, listening to her song quietly.

"The next stop is York Station. Passengers who are getting off please get ready. This stop will last for fifteen minutes."

The train broadcast announced the arrival of the station, and Alex began to pack his luggage and prepare to get off the train.

Unexpectedly, the girl next to me also started packing her luggage, obviously she was also going to get off at York Station.

When the girl stood up, Alex estimated her height and found that his guess was correct. The girl was about 1.65 meters tall.

After getting off the train, Alex looked at the magnificent buildings in the train station in amazement.

Although I came here once ten years ago, York has undergone tremendous changes ten years later.

"Wait a moment!"

A sweet female voice sounded behind Alex. Alex stopped and turned back subconsciously.

It was the girl who had just sat next to him on the train. She was waving her hand and running towards him quickly.

"What's the matter?"

Alex naturally wouldn't believe that a girl would fall in love with him at first sight. Although he was quite handsome, his outfit was too rustic.

He was wearing khaki pants and a white vest, the same attire as the migrant workers who came to the city to look for work.

"Are you thinking of redeeming the prize?"

The girl said with some resentment that she was angry about why Alex ignored her reminder on the train before.

"Oh, you mean this?"

Alex took out the pull ring from his pocket and threw it on the side of the road.

"ah?!"

This time it was the girls' turn to be dumbfounded!

She never expected that Alex would do such a thing!

"You...you threw it away?"

The girl pointed at Alex in surprise, her mouth wide open.

"Well, throw it away."

Alex nodded: "It's fake in the first place, there's no point in keeping it."

"You knew it was fake?"

After hearing what Alex said, the girl was suddenly confused and looked at Alex stupidly.

What's wrong with this person?

You know it's fake, but you still spend money to buy it?

Are you crazy?

Judging from his appearance, he doesn't look like the kind of rich man with a bad taste.

"I know. Even if I didn't know, you reminded me on the train!"

Alex smiled and said.

"Then why do you give them money?"

The girl suddenly became anxious. Who is this person?

Alex smiled, took his backpack off his shoulder, unzipped it, and then opened it in front of the girl.

The girl looked at Alex in surprise, then lowered her head and looked into Alex's backpack, and was immediately shocked!

There were actually seven or eight bundles of banknotes inside!

"You are very rich? Even if you have money, you can't spend it carelessly?"

The girl didn't quite understand what Alex meant and thought that he was doing this to show how rich he was.

“This is the money from before.”

Alex said.

"The money just now? What does that mean?"

The girl didn't understand: "You mean you got the money back? It was only 49,000 Nr, right? It must be 70,000 or 80,000 Nr now?"

"The man with glasses had another 30,000 Nr in his hand, and I took it away as well."

Alex shrugged and said.

This is just a small thing, just a piece of cake. For Alex, it is very simple.

"Huh?"

The girl was completely dumbfounded this time! It wasn't that Alex was sick, but he was more skilled than her. Not only did he get his own money back, he also got the money from the man with glasses!

"Why do you have that expression? Are you planning to report me for theft? You have a strong sense of justice."

Alex looked at the girl's surprised expression, smiled and teased.

"Of course not."

The girl blushed and shook her head.

"Thank you so much before, though. There aren't many girls like you left."

Alex said sincerely: "Will you have a meal later?"

“No…”

The girl shook her head shyly: "My family is waiting for me at the exit."

Alex nodded after hearing this but did not force it. Picking up girls is a skill, but it also requires going with the flow. Being too deliberate will backfire: "Then I won't bother you anymore."

Isla looked at Alex's receding back and shook her head. What a peculiar person he was. If her mother hadn't been waiting for her at the exit, Isla wouldn't mind having more contact with Alex.

It’s not that Isla has any good feelings towards Alex, she just feels that Alex is really different!

She carries so much money in her backpack but doesn't keep it in the bank. She wears the most rustic clothes possible, but she has an indescribable temperament.

"Sir, would you like to stay at the hotel? It's very cheap..."

As soon as Alex got out of the train station, he was surrounded by a group of people soliciting customers from a nearby hotel.

This kind of migrant worker-like dress is the focus of business for these small hotels.

Who among the rich would stay in such a small hotel? There is no need for the big hotels to come out and solicit customers.

Alex waved his hand, squeezed through the circle of soliciting customers, and walked towards the taxi stop in the square. Alex held a piece of paper in his hand, which was the address the old man gave him before he left.

I got into a taxi and the taxi driver asked enthusiastically, "Where are you going, young man?"

"Go to this address."

Alex handed the note in his hand to the taxi driver.

This driver was a black car driver who specialized in sneaking around the train station area and he was very good at identifying his passengers.

As soon as he saw Alex, he knew he was from another place, probably here to work, so he wanted to make fun of him.

Anyway, the kid was not familiar with the road, so he happily took the note handed over by Alex. After taking a look at the address on it, the driver's face immediately turned green!

The note read: Coke Building, No. 36, Gray place Avenue, York City. 11.2 kilometers from the train station, take the New Second Ring Bridge.

Even the route has been designed, and the mileage is clearly marked, so who can blame them?

But what was this young man doing at Coke Building?

That is the largest group company in York City. How could a guy dressed as a migrant worker like him know anyone inside?

The driver sighed, threw the note aside, and drove the car obediently.

The transportation in York is very good, with many bridges. Alex felt that he had reached his destination in one go. He paid twenty-four Nr for the fare and got off the car.

Looking at such a tall building in front of him, Alex felt a little dizzy. It seemed to be taller than the mountains in his hometown?

It seems that my employer is very rich. Maybe it's just like what the old man said, that one task can support me for a lifetime.

I just don't know if I will die if I jump from it.

However, when he was at his hometown, Alex was kicked by the old man from the top of the mountain and fell directly into the ravine, but he did not die. He just lay in bed for several days with a bruised face.

Alex confirmed the house number and the name of the building, and after verifying that they were correct, he swaggered into the building.
