Chapter 347 The Story of Avandi (2)

He scared his sister to the point of shrunk back. Awandi thought about it and decided to have breakfast here. After all, if you change to a new place, you may not be familiar with where the restaurant is there.

Thinking of this, Evandi shouted loudly: "Mother, I'll eat here."

But soon Avandi regretted it. It took not long for several months, but he had long been used to enjoying exquisite food in the company. Now, when he ate this shoddy breakfast, he had the urge to vomit.

Looking at my seven-year-old sister and three-year-old brother, I hopped on the dirty dining table and ate with relish, as if it was not cheap food, but a delicious meal.

"Evandi, have you heard of it?" His mother is almost fifty years old this year. Her hard work in the slums has left this woman in her nearly fifty years of wrinkles on her face and her forehead is covered with white hair.

"What have you heard?"

He quietly put down the corn-mixed pancake and asked quietly.

"The price of peppers has increased to 2 million rupees recently. I heard that someone ran to Sunadi's vegetable garden yesterday to steal peppers. Sunadi and his brother caught them and beat them to death with a stick..."

"Beat to death?"

Awandi was stunned at first, then a little dazed. He was used to living in a civilized society and almost forgot about this kind of life in the slums.

"So, how are they?"

"Who?" his mother asked curiously.

"Sunidi and the others, if you beat someone to death, you should be punished."

"Of course, the police came, and the Sunadi family was fined 1 million rupees. It would be better to let the thief steal the peppers."

The woman looked heartbroken with a look of heartache, and it seemed that she felt heartbroken for the chili peppers.

One life, the price of four kilograms of peppers.

Avandi couldn't swallow it. He was a little bored and wanted to move out of the slums as soon as possible. Here, life is not equivalent to life in the city center. In the eyes of the police, the untouchables in their country are only worth four kilograms of peppers.

Suddenly, Evandi took out his wallet, counted 2 million rupees and put it on the table, "Mother, take this money and buy Nayoman's pair of shoes, and buy some household items for the rest. If it's not enough, I'll get some money back tonight."

"Oh, oh, this, this...Evandi..."

The woman was a little excited. She picked up 20 large bills with both hands and said incoherently: "Avandi, this is a bit too much."

"Not much, not much money."

Avandi shouted: "I'm saving money, maybe in a few months we can leave here and find a good house to live in."

The woman was stunned. The first time she felt that what Avandi said might be true.

She hesitated for a moment, handed over the money to Avandi, and said stutteringly, "Then, then you should save this money. If it is not enough, I will save a little."

The little girl next to her had heard Awandi say to buy her a pair of shoes, and her eyes immediately became brighter. Suddenly, her mother handed back the money and her eyes dimmed, but she still said nothing, and lay obediently at a table that was nearly as tall as hers, burying her little head in front of the worn-out rice bowl and chewing the cake hard.

"Haha, where did this get the money?"

Before Awandi could continue to say anything, suddenly the door was pushed open suddenly, and an old drunk man walked in. When he saw the money in the woman's hand, he immediately said noisy: "Didn't you say you have no money? You dare to lie to me!"

After saying that, I wanted to come over and grab the money.

Unfortunately, Ewandi stretched out his arm and stopped the drunk old man.

"Hey, you are... Evandi, my son?"

The old man narrowed his eyes, looked at Avandi up and down, and smiled: "My good son, what do you want to do? Do you want to help me? I'm not that old yet."

Seeing his father who had not been home for several months, he was drunk and wanted to steal money as soon as he came back. Awandi pushed hard and pushed the old man to the ground.

"Don't you not come back?"

"Haha, that's just an angry word."

The old man's appearance made the woman tremble and frightened the children. They all hid aside and dared not speak. Only Evandi stood upright and looked down at this bastard who likes gambling and alcoholism.

The old man didn't blame Ewandi for pushing this, and slowly got up from the ground, "I'm your dad after all, don't be so ruthless. I still miss you very much."

"Get out of here, I don't want to say the second sentence."

"Allah is here, are you really going to be so ruthless?"

The old man sneered: "Remember, I am always your father, don't regret this."

"Do you old guy want to stay here and seek death?" Avandi couldn't help but wave his fist.

"Haha, my son looks developed now, not as a pariah as us, and he dares to talk to me like this. But don't forget, no matter how you change, you are my son, don't regret doing such a thing."

He looked drunk, but the old man spoke very clearly. He sneered and glanced at Avandi, glanced at the banknotes on the table with a greedy look, and then pushed the door and walked out.

"Evandi, what should I do? He is back." The woman sobbed and stood up and said.

"Don't be afraid, I'm different. If he dares to come back, I'll call the police."

Now, as an employee of a super multinational foreign company, if he calls the police, he may not be the perfunctory attitude he used to treat the poor.

After comforting his mother, Awandi handed the money back to the woman, "Don't worry, this little money is nothing, we can move out of here soon."

When I walked out of my house, although it was still dark, many people in the slums had already got up early to work. Some people needed to go to the garbage stations on the outskirts of the city to find useful garbage to sell money, while others took hard-grown vegetables and sent them to farmers' markets for sale.

There are very few people wearing a suit like Evandi, with his head held high and his chest held high.

Many people looked at him passing by, and their eyes were filled with enviousness. However, although Avandi looked down on these lazy pariahs, he never relaxed his vigilance. He recently heard a rumor that he had entered a large company and seemed to have money.

It is indeed a fact to say that it is a rumor, but such rumors are too dangerous in slums. It is not ruled out that some jealous people deliberately cheat him or even do something excessive.

So Evandi got up early and left in order to avoid the fact that when there were too many people, some people deliberately hit him and dirty his clean suit.

Yes, just getting Evandi's suit dirty would be enough to cause him a lot of trouble.

For such a world-class multinational company, he attaches great importance to the personal image of his employees. At least in the city center, if he wears a dirty suit to work, in less than a day, the entire company will be spread throughout the company.

Although... a white or core employee like David, dressed casually and even sloppyly, is a manifestation of his personality. But he is a Javanese or a Javanese born in a slum, and he is not qualified to learn David's approach.

Walking out of the slums, Evandi took the bus to the city center.

He got up very early, but unfortunately the traffic conditions in Jakarta are not very good. In order not to be late, many office workers also like to get up early to take the bus. He carefully got on the bus and kept a certain distance from others. After waiting patiently for an hour, the bus arrived at the station.

From here is the periphery of the city center. The hard-core technology company he works at did not choose to be in the core area of ​​the city center as his office location, but directly found a building in the periphery area and used it from the 25th to 27th floors as an office location.

Of course, compared to the hardcore technology company headquarters that is being built in the suburbs, the work here is more important is sales and reception. The work done by programmers like him is just to maintain the official website of the hardcore technology company in Indonesia.
