Chapter 74

When the hostess came back, Locke discussed with the other party again, and finally set the price at 650 million U.S. dollars. The two parties signed a contract of intent, and then it was Dylan who was busy.

With such a large contract, the huge bonus alone is enough for Dylan to have enough mobility to get things done faster.

For this reason, Locke borrowed 4000 million US dollars from the bank, using some stocks as collateral, and the whole process was extremely smooth. The account manager of Citibank wanted to borrow more from Locke.

Back in Meijing Town in the evening, listening to Peggy talking about her experiences during the day and describing the manor on the farm at dinner, Ashley regretted not following along.

Fortunately, there is not no chance in the future. Locke promised to find a chance to go there for a few days together after the farm is transferred.

Then Ashley talked about playing cards at Gabriel's house and meeting Mr. Solis's mother who just came to visit yesterday.

"Mr. Solis's mother is a good card player, but after a while, I lost more than 300 US dollars, which is really terrible."

Ashley still had a look of lingering fear. She usually bought clothes and shopping with Locke's card. She really didn't have much cash on hand, and it was all given to her by Samantha when she left.

Locke didn't give her cash, and she spent a lot of money these days. In such a short period of time, she lost more than 300 US dollars, which was one-third of her remaining money.

He was thinking about whether to wait for Locke to act like a baby when he was alone at night, so as to get some pocket money.

In the next few days, Locke processed some documents brought by Tang Wei and arranged for the investment of overseas companies and Sky Fund.

It was finally time to enroll at Princeton University.

The school welcomed Peggy very much, and Dr. Gait from the Department of Mathematics was especially waiting in the principal's office.

In the original plot, Peggy and Sheldon would choose the Department of Physics together, but perhaps influenced by Locke, Peggy decided to choose the Department of Mathematics early on.

According to the previous agreement, both Peggy and Locke received full scholarships, but Peggy also had other living allowances, while Locke did not.

He didn't care about the little money. Dr. Gate attached great importance to the two of them, and together with the headmaster they praised them, especially Peggy, who they described as valuable assets of the school.

The principal also said that a separate dormitory was prepared for Peggy, free of charge.

Peggy didn't say that she didn't need it, and directly accepted the key handed over by the principal. It would be nice to have a temporary resting place at school.

After leaving the principal's office, the two walked on the road in the school. Peggy said, "Would you like to go and see the dormitory I was allocated now?"

"It's good to go and have a look. You can ask someone to clean it up, and then see what you need to buy, and bring it when you come next time." Locke did not refuse.

The two came to the dormitory building. Looking at the girls wearing bath towels walking towards them, Locke suddenly regretted his original choice: "Mixed dormitory, maybe I should really choose to get a place."

The two quickly found Peggy's dormitory room and opened the door with the dormitory key they received.

The inside seemed to have been specially cleaned, and there was still a faint smell of disinfectant. It was not the same as other dormitories at all, it was just tidied up. It seemed that the principal cared enough for Peggy.

"The dormitory is very clean, it seems that we only need to add some things." Locke said.

"It is true that there is still a lack of bedding and some commonly used clothes. You can bring them directly when you come to school next time." Peggy looked at her new dormitory and felt very satisfied.

Locke stood at the door and glanced at the opposite dormitory. There was a girl changing clothes inside. The door of the dormitory was ajar, and the looming scenery could still be seen.

As soon as the girl looked up, she noticed Locke.

"Hi!" The other party didn't close the door, let alone curse, but opened the half-closed door and greeted Locke, allowing Locke to enjoy the scenery that can only be seen on the beach.

"Hi, Locke Lee." Facing the other person's eyes, Locke introduced himself with a smile: "Freshman, Department of Mathematics."

"Elizabeth Plimpton, senior, Department of Physics." The other party introduced himself, and then asked, "Do you live across the street?"

If Locke remembers correctly, the Elizabeth Plimpton in front of him seems to be the future female doctor of physics.

Leonard and her have one night and one morning fun, plus Howard the delivery guy and Rajesh the landlord because they 'can't afford it'.

"Ah, this is my friend's dormitory..." Locke replied while thinking about the plot.

"Lock?" At this moment, Peggy came to the door after checking the private bathroom.

"She is your friend." Elizabeth looked at Locke strangely.

"Peggy Swanson, like me, is from the Department of Mathematics. Her parents are my friends and asked me to take care of her at school."

Locke said: "This is Elizabeth, living in the dormitory opposite."

Elizabeth looked at Peggy carefully, and then remembered what she heard a few days ago that there will be two 11-year-old super geniuses in the school, and Peggy is obviously one of them.

She can understand the existence of geniuses because she is one of them. She went to university at the age of 15, studied for two years, and is now ready to graduate early and study for a master's degree.

But Peggy's age in front of her is really beyond her imagination.

Peggy seemed to have a bad impression of Elizabeth, and Elizabeth seemed not interested in Peggy. After saying hello, Elizabeth closed the door of the dormitory.

"Wow." At this time, there was an exclamation from the side.

Locke turned his head and saw a handsome white boy who said to Locke, "It's really a beautiful scenery, isn't it?"

"Hmm." Locke shrugged.

"I'm Ben Tris, a freshman from the Department of Biology." The other party stretched out his hand proactively.

"Lock Lee, freshman Department of Mathematics." Locke said with a smile, "Are you interested in the Department of Biology?"

"I want to apply to medical school." The other said: "I am very interested in medicine."

Locke nodded clearly. There are countless students in the United States who have worked hard to become doctors since middle school.

The United States does not have a medical undergraduate degree. If you want to become a doctor, you need to apply for a medical school after graduating from university, and you have an advantage when you study related majors during college.

As for the so-called interest in medicine, most of them are actually interested in money.

After all, persuading people to study medicine is a thunderbolt. If it is not for money, not many people will be interested in studying medicine through hard work.

After the two chattered a few words, two people, one fat and one thin, came out of the dormitory behind him. They looked like typical nerds in their appearance and expression.

The fat man was acquainted, and he greeted Locke: "I'm Michael Duncan, and this is Kem Jordan. The three of us are good friends."

"Have you known each other before? It seems that you are lucky to be together." Locke said with a smile.

"Kem asked someone to change the dormitory." Fatty Michael said with a smile: "Would you like to go out and look around the campus together, there are many beauties in the school~"

Michael winked while talking. For some homeboys, they are often able to talk eloquently in front of the same sex, but in front of beautiful women, they are easy to hesitate for a long time.

"I really want to agree, but I still have some things." Locke took Peggy's hand: "There will be a chance next time."

"No problem." Michael glanced at Peggy, who had already obtained information from the senior and recognized this talented girl, but this was not in his focus.

Smiling and patted Locke on the shoulder, Michael frowned at Locke: "If you are interested, you can come to me, I know a lot of 'information'."

"Thank you." Locke smiled slightly: "But no need."

"Don't be embarrassed." Several people walked outside, and Michael continued: "You must know that university is a battlefield, and it has always been fast and slow."

"Yeah." The skinny Kem interjected at this time: "If you start late, the high-quality resources will be taken away by others."

Locke's mouth twitched, wanting to say that he really doesn't need to study those materials, just look at the charm value on the system panel, what he should worry about is how to refuse.

But he also knows not to show off too much, otherwise he doesn't know how they will react, maybe the good impression brought by the charm value at the beginning will be reversed soon.

Otakus have always had a complicated attitude towards people with rich records like Locke, they are both envious and jealous, especially there is never a shortage of people who are jealous or even jealous.

"Tomorrow we can make an appointment. University is a new beginning. We will definitely have a happy university life." Michael announced with a smile.

Kem also nodded, and Locke could only smile without saying a word. When he reached the dormitory downstairs, he pulled Peggy to say goodbye to them.
