Super-rich: Spending money is just a job!

One day after the start of the semester, Xiaomeng had no classes in the morning and slept in, which was a rare treat.

Is going to university really that great? Before university, she had to get up at six in the morning to catch the bus to clock in for her early shift. Even after the system came along, she still had to leave early for training, catching flights, visiting stores, and so on. She never had a single day as leisurely as this.

She went downstairs and ate breakfast prepared by a local family chef: borscht and crab roe and crab meat noodles. Back upstairs, she did stretching exercises barefoot on the wooden floor, strolled around, sat, lay down, read, listened to music, wrote novels and scripts, and even slept. She leisurely squandered a morning in the cool breeze and sunshine.

She seemed to only come to her senses when Sister Zhang sent her a message reminding her that she had class in the afternoon and needed to prepare to leave.

Did I really spend the whole morning so easily and pleasantly? When did I become able to enjoy such a relaxed life so comfortably?

A short while later, her newly hired personal assistant came upstairs and followed her into the dressing room, where a dressing table had now been added.

Yes, she has now hired an assistant to help with makeup, hair, and clothing.

Coming to Shanghai to study such a strange major suddenly increased the requirements for daily makeup and styling. Sometimes I have to change my look three times a day. It would be too much of a waste of time to think of and do all of them myself, so I might as well outsource the work.

She didn't know if her classmates had assistants, but it seemed like everyone's makeup and styling were always appropriate when changing scenes; it had become an unspoken agreement. Only if someone's attire was inappropriate would they be treated differently.

Xiaoli, her personal assistant, was a Hanfu enthusiast she had previously employed, whom she met through a museum event.

After graduating with a bachelor's degree in fashion design and performance, Xiaoli had been involved in the Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) community, presumably searching for a long-term career. She met Xiaomeng and collaborated with her a few times. Knowing that Xiaomeng needed an assistant to help with makeup and styling while she was still in school, Xiaoli volunteered. She knew Xiaomeng was genuinely wealthy and generous. Sure enough, after joining the company, her salary was 30,000 yuan a month, plus social insurance and housing fund contributions.

My job simply involves styling my boss's outfits, accessories, and makeup for the day's events. It's a very relaxed and enjoyable job, and I even have time to pursue a side hustle.

The boss needs to teach two large classes this afternoon, and then go horseback riding at the horse farm, so we need to prepare two sets of gear and help prepare the horse tack with the other employees.

During class, the boss always wore a plain silk shirt with a horse-face skirt, and her jewelry consisted of white light bulb pearl earrings and a pair of spring-colored jadeite bracelets.

Today's class was taught in French. Xiaoli sat in through the classroom window, finding it very difficult to understand. She remembered how hard she had tried in school, but had forgotten a lot. Looking at her boss inside, she saw him diligently reading, taking notes, and answering questions, seemingly without any difficulty.

The other people in the classroom, some spoke fluent French, while others wore translation glasses. Everyone used their own methods, and it seemed that understanding the lesson was not a problem for them.

Anyway, the fashionable white old man on the podium seemed quite satisfied with his class of students.

As soon as the bell rang, the bosses came out of the classroom. Xiaoli quickly drove her electric scooter to her boss's location.

The campus is quite large, and it's crowded everywhere during classroom changes, plus cars aren't allowed on campus. To improve commuting efficiency, Xiaoli drove her electric scooter in to pick up her boss and took him to the parking lot.

Xiaoli helped her boss change into his equestrian sportswear in the van. Upon arriving at the horse farm, she and the driver helped the boss carry the saddlebags.

The boss himself carried small odds and ends, such as horsewhips and small carrots.

By the way, what Xiaoli admired most about her boss was her attitude of treating money like dirt. For example, the entire set of equipment her boss used for riding horses was from the same brand. This included the saddle, leather goods, stirrups, water bucket, brush for brushing the horse's hair, bucket for storing hay, and so on—all from the coachman's family.

These items are quite exquisite, but their prices are outrageous. She had checked before; the hay bucket cost over 3 yuan each, and the brush cost several thousand yuan. They were actually being used as everyday tools that cost only a few yuan.

Furthermore, the boss also used a large kangaroo leather Birkin bag as a miscellaneous bag, stuffing it with all sorts of odds and ends such as riding crop, gloves, and water cups, making the bag, worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, bulge out.

The first time the boss came to teach as a teaching assistant, the female college students were chattering and nitpicking about the horse farm. But the moment the boss showed up with his gear, he stunned them.

The following lessons went much more smoothly, and everyone followed the coach's and Boss Lin's instructions. They brushed the horses when told to, and fed them carrots when told to.

The boss's classmates really know their stuff. An ordinary person might not be able to figure out the price of the outfit on the boss's horse, but the boss's classmates only needed to glance at it to roughly estimate the total price.

Xiaoli overheard them whispering as they waited in line to mount their horses, saying that Boss Lin's entire outfit would definitely cost two million. Some of the gear even had the boss's initials embroidered on it; those were definitely custom-made personal items, and those would cost extra.

No wonder he's a student studying luxury brand management.

If Xiaoli were to see this during her university days, she definitely wouldn't understand. They were all poor students; who would go into a store like that to spend money? She'd heard that a single silk scarf there cost three or four thousand yuan, and that they were known for not cheating poor people.

Today is the second equestrian lesson, and the students are already able to try riding. The owner is demonstrating the key points of riding to the students.

Because there weren't many horses on the field, the owner even lent his own horse to his classmates to ride.

So after the boss finished demonstrating, he jumped off and let the others ride on him to practice.

This horse is certainly not "Kapibala," which must stay in a disease-free riding area and be ready to compete at any time.

The horse staying in Shanghai is a newly purchased domestic warmblood, a warmblood with an Australian sire and a domestic dam. It's a very good horse, costing over 800,000 yuan, and has excellent physique, no less than those thoroughbreds. Of course, its price is a bit lower because of its pedigree.

Because it's white, Xiaomeng named it "Xiaoxue Takes Flight." Actually, she originally wanted to name it Xiaobai or Xiaoxue, but those names were too common and she couldn't register them, so she had to choose a four-character name.

While riding on the horse, Xiaomeng's classmate exclaimed, "Xiaoxue is so well-behaved! No wonder it's such an expensive and fine horse. It's so tall and handsome! I heard that Boss Lin often participates in competitions. Will he take it with him?"

Xiaomeng pulled on the leather strap around the horse's mouth, saying, "No, this horse is just for riding around at the school's riding stable. It can't go into the competition area."

"Why? This horse is so handsome."

Xiaomeng felt that this person was really forcing the conversation. What could be the reason? It's because it doesn't meet the epidemic prevention requirements. Why didn't he check the information before taking the equestrian class?

If she gives the real reason, this person will definitely ask what the epidemic prevention requirements are.

So she simply replied, "This horse hasn't been trained much, its running and jumping skills are too poor, it's not worth competing with."

Because there aren't many horses at the school, only about twenty students from each college can enroll in the equestrian course each semester. So, all Xiaomeng needs to do is help the instructor get these twenty-odd students to ride around once, and that's it for their class.

I heard that their college's physical education classes are different from other schools. In addition to basketball and soccer, there are also courses such as golf, tennis, and sailing to choose from.

After Boss Lin finished class, Xiao Li also said goodbye to the other young lady's personal assistant.

She also had to go with her boss to dismount the horses, wipe their sweat, put on their riding clothes, and feed them snacks.

Everything was done, and I got home at 7:30 pm.

Back home, after her boss had finished washing up, she gave him a new look.

Tonight, the boss is going out to a private restaurant to have dinner with a friend.

Fortunately, after seeing her boss off, Xiaoli didn't have to follow in the car anymore. She was able to enjoy a relaxing time after get off work at home.

While checking the messages, I noticed she just joined a group today. It's a group privately formed by the boss's classmates' assistants. They're all assistants to the boss, and since the bosses saw each other frequently during their school days, it's reasonable for them to chat and catch up.
