I found a cell phone from ten years ago.

Chapter 22 Four Credit Cards

After the National Day holiday, Li Xu and his classmates resumed their normal class rhythm.

Due to the National Day holiday, classes will continue as usual on Saturday, the 9th.

During the morning self-study session, Guan Jiayu, the student life committee member, walked up to the podium, knocked on the desk, and said:
"I have something to tell you. Students in our class who have filled out the family financial hardship application form, please submit your poverty certificate to me as soon as possible, before the 11th."

Universities all have subsidy policies for poor students, and private colleges like Yingcai College are no exception. Generally, there are 4-6 places in a class, and the subsidies are divided into three levels: 1000 yuan, 1500 yuan, and 2000 yuan.

The selection process is that the class scholarship review group first holds a meeting to conduct the selection, and then reports the list to the college.

After two advanced mathematics classes in the morning, Li Xu stood up and prepared to go outside the classroom to get some fresh air when he saw Guan Jiayu walking towards him.

"Li Xu, you have a cell phone, right?" Guan Jiayu asked.

Seeing Li Xu nod, she continued, "I have to tell you in advance that according to the application standards for poor students, owning valuables such as mobile phones does not meet the selection requirements."

"I only have this old cell phone, which is not even worth 100 yuan. How can it be considered a valuable item?" Li Xu said, taking out the old Nokia cell phone and placing it on the desk.

Guan Jiayu glanced at the phone on the table. "That's what the document stipulates, but a phone like yours shouldn't be a problem."

She paused, then added, "But you seem to have an MP4 player, right? That won't work either."

"Okay, I understand." Li Xu did not argue any further.

Seeing that he seemed to be a little "emotional", Guan Jiayu patiently explained:

"Don't have any objections. We're all classmates, and I certainly won't deliberately make things difficult for anyone. I'll do my best to help you during the selection process, but the number of spots is limited, so whether you can get in is uncertain."

"Okay, you don't have to explain, I can understand." Li Xu said indifferently.

If he hadn't picked up the Honor Magic 6 Pro, Li Xu would definitely argue for it today. Given his family conditions, he fully meets the criteria for a poor student and should at least be rated third.

But now he can make money by speculating in gold, and in a month or two he will have royalties, so he doesn't care much about the one or two thousand yuan in poverty subsidy.

A few days later, the selection results came out. Four students in the class got places for poor students, but Li Xu was not among them. He didn't even submit a poverty certificate, so it was naturally impossible for him to be selected.

His mother had to go to the brigade several times and use some connections to get that poverty certificate, but it was ultimately of no use.

In a blink of an eye, more than a week has passed and it is now late October.

After four or five rounds of recommendations, the collection of "Mystery" is about to exceed 50,000, and the time for it to be put on the shelves is getting closer and closer.

On Friday, the 22nd, after class in the morning, Li Xu did not rush to the Internet cafe to type as usual, but went to the school cafeteria with Xu Haoyang.

He has been working hard on writing and accumulating manuscripts this month. He currently has more than 280 chapters saved, so he can finally relax a little.

During the meal, Xu Haoyang said mysteriously, "Fu Linlin had her birthday last night, and Guanfu was there too. He even gave her a pretty expensive bracelet. Guess what?"

"Did he confess his love to Fu Linlin?" Li Xu said casually.

"How did you know? Did someone tell you?" Xu Haoyang said in surprise.

"Then what? Did Guanfu succeed in his confession?" Li Xu asked.

"No, Fu Linlin directly refused and did not accept the gift." Xu Haoyang shook his head and said.

Even if Xu Haoyang didn't say it, Li Xu could guess the result. Li Guanfu had been pursuing Fu Linlin for a month, but he had always been one-sided and Fu Linlin had no response at all.

Fu Linlin looks sweet and cute, but she has a sense of arrogance in her bones, so she is not easy to pursue.

"Guan Fu said he doesn't plan to pursue Fu Linlin anymore..."

At this point, Xu Haoyang paused, with an expression that was difficult to comment on, "He wants to pursue Jiang Jingni." Li Xu was also a little speechless after hearing this, "Chasing Jiang Jingni?"

Li Guanfu is a really good guy. He was rejected by Fu Linlin just now, and he turned around to pursue Jiang Jingni. The transition was seamless and he was not idle at all.

The question is, what do you want those two girls to think?
However, this boy has a good vision. Both Fu Linlin and Jiang Jingni are outstanding among the girls in the class.

Of course, the most beautiful one has to be Guan Jiayu, who has the most outstanding figure and looks, tall and cool.

The only flaw is the Northeastern accent, which sounds a bit silly and slightly destroys the beauty.

After finishing his meal in the cafeteria and returning to the dormitory, Li Xu found a letter on his desk.

He Weichen pointed to the letter on the table and said to him, "I just went to the mail room to get the mail. I saw that this letter was yours, so I brought it back for you."

"Thanks!"

Li Xu picked up the envelope and saw that it was sent by China Guangfa Bank, so he knew it must be a credit card payment.

He tore open the envelope and found inside was a China Guangfa Bank credit card, also known as a student card.

Before National Day, Li Xu went to seven or eight banks and applied for four credit cards in total, namely, China Guangfa Bank, Bank of Communications, China Construction Bank and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.

Among them, the overdraft limits of the two cards of China Guangfa Bank and Bank of Communications are 4,000 and 5,000 respectively, while the overdraft limits of the two cards of China Construction Bank and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China are both 3,000.

The three cards from Bank of Communications, China Construction Bank and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China were all issued last week, and the card from China Guangfa Bank was the last to be issued.

Li Xu traded paper gold for more than a month and earned more than 3,000 yuan intermittently. As the funds in his hands increased, the money he could earn from each transaction also increased.

He now has more than 17,000 yuan in his ICBC online banking account. If he cashes out the money in this China Guangfa Bank card, he will have more than 20,000 yuan to operate.

Li Xu had already paid back the fifteen hundred yuan he borrowed. In addition, he had spent nearly two thousand yuan on living expenses over the past month, including clothes and other expenses.

"Brother Xu, why did you apply for a credit card again?" Xu Haoyang walked over, picked up the envelope on the table and asked.

He didn't know that Li Xu had four cards, and thought there was only this one from China Guangfa Bank and the ICBC card that he opened together.

"Of course it's useful. Why would I use it if it wasn't?" Li Xu put the credit card into his wallet, then walked to the balcony, took down the dried clothes, and started changing clothes.

He is now wearing a school uniform, white on top and blue on the bottom, with the school emblem of Yingcai College on the shirt.

Some universities also have school uniforms.

"Brother Xu, what are you going to do? Going to the Internet cafe again?" Xu Haoyang asked.

"Go do something first, then go."

"Then I'll go with you."

Li Xu glanced at Xu Haoyang and did not refuse.

If this kid is willing to follow, then let him follow.

At worst, he would not write (copy the book) today, but would watch the gold market and revise the manuscripts. Most of the 280-plus chapters he had accumulated had not been revised yet.

Li Xu changed into a white base shirt, a color-blocked jacket, and light blue jeans. Then he fixed his hair in front of the mirror and felt satisfied. Then he left the dormitory with Xu Haoyang.

Since he started making money, Li Xu has been more and more willing to spend money. This month, he bought three sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes, not including a jersey specifically for playing basketball.
