"It seems that I can only go to the county seat once! Thank you!" Li Quan sighed, retrieved his bank card, and turned to walk towards Zhang Daniu. "Da Niu, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you to lunch today, I have to take a ride to the county seat. ”

He smiled apologetically and wryly.

Old classmates who haven't seen each other for many years finally met, but they didn't have time to have a meal together, which is really a pity.

"Are you in a hurry to use cash?" Zhang Daniu asked.

"Well, my family owes a lot of foreign debts to support my college education. After working this year, I finally made some money, and when I came back this time, I thought about paying off my foreign debts. ”

Li Quan generously explained the reason.

"Oh my God, you've just started working and can earn more than 50,000 yuan a year, this is a scholar! I think after graduating from junior high school, I followed my acquaintances to work as a dishwasher in the city, with a salary of only 300 yuan a month, and often washed dishes until more than one o'clock in the morning, and had to get up at six o'clock the next day to work. ”

Zhang Daniu looked at Li Quan with admiration.

"The teacher told us back then that there was a way out by studying, and I was talking nonsense as a teacher. I also laughed at the teacher's method of trying to trick us into reading, which is too inferior, what way out can there be in reading? Alas, over the years, I have encountered walls everywhere in society, suffered losses everywhere, and was looked down upon, which is the loss of not studying. ”

"If I could turn back the clock and let me choose again, I would definitely study hard. Become a college student just like you. ”

Zhang Daniu's words were full of remorse.

"Haha, do you remember the interesting things back then! Don't say it, if it wasn't for my crush on Gong Shaping in the class when I was in junior high school, I heard that she wanted to be admitted to the county No. 1 middle school, I would have been like you, just as a teacher who wanted to trick us into studying hard. ”

Li Quan remembered the funny story of his ignorant youth, and couldn't help laughing.

may be because his family is poor, Li Quan was very inferior when he was a child, and he was also very strong.

The class leader Gong Shaping not only has excellent grades, but also looks very beautiful. There are not a few boys who have a crush on her.

Once, the head teacher adjusted the seat, and Li Quan, a boy with extremely low self-esteem since childhood, was fortunate to sit with Gong Shaping, the excellent and beautiful class leader.

At the beginning, Li Quan would blush and heartbeat even if he peeked at the other party.

I shared a table with her for a week, but I didn't dare to say a word to her.

Until a math test, Li Quan's grades failed.

After class, Gong Shaping actually took the initiative to find him and help him tutor his math knowledge. Patiently teach him to correct his mistakes.

Since that contact, Li Quan and her have slowly become acquainted.

Maybe it's out of the ignorant love of a teenager.

At that time, he felt that Gong Shaping was the most beautiful girl in the world and the goddess in his mind.

He went from admiration to liking, and then incorrigibly had a crush on Gong Shaping.

After the two got acquainted, Li Quan, who had low self-esteem, gradually had a smile on his face, and he became hardworking in his studies.

But Wu Ziming, the deputy squad leader of the class, was unhappy.

Why?

Because Wu Ziming has always been recognized as the first in the class, and his family conditions are also very good. Wu Ziming's family runs a bookstore in the town, and the economic conditions are much better than those of ordinary peasant families.

It is precisely because of his superior conditions that Wu Ziming naturally thinks that the most beautiful girl in the class should be good with him.

Now a male classmate with poor grades and a poor family actually wants to rob Gong Shaping with him, so he must teach this boy a lesson.

At that time, everyone was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and their minds were very simple.

After school, Wu Ziming led someone to block Li Quan on the path outside the school.

Crossing his waist, he said angrily, "Li Quan, you are just a piece of stinky shit, your family is poor, and your grades are not good, why should you compete with me for Gong Shaping? People must be self-aware, you are not worthy of her at all." ”

Li Quan's self-esteem was greatly humiliated, and he was also angry at the time.

"Wu Ziming, then let's compare, I will compare my grades with you now, and who will be richer when I grow up in the future. ”

After Wu Ziming heard this, he laughed.

With a contemptuous expression, he looked at Li Quan, who was full of anger and stubbornness.

"Li Quan, do you want to compare with me? Don't pee and take pictures, I am the first in the class every time, but you are the bottom, can you compare to me? If your grades in the final exam of this semester are not as good as mine, you will not be allowed to associate with Gong Shaping in the future. ”

"A hundred years of hanging on the hook!"

Li Quan was also enthusiastic, and agreed on the spot. In order to compete for the goddess Gong Shaping, the two teenagers made a bet.

Since then, Li Quan began to study hard, getting up every day before dawn to endorse books.

If there is a math problem that he doesn't understand, he asks Gong Shaping or the teacher until he understands it.

At that time, he often dreamed that he was solving a math problem.

It was precisely with this stubbornness that he never admitted defeat that he was stunned and got a good score of 682 points in seven subjects in the final exam.

Even the teacher praised him for creating a miracle of counterattack.

Wu Ziming, who bet with him, was a full twenty-one points worse than him because of his arrogance.

However, the contest between the two men did not end there.

Wu Ziming also began to study harder.

Until the end of the high school entrance examination, Li Quan and Wu Ziming were both admitted to the county No. 1 Middle School.

On the contrary, the class leader Gong Shaping was only admitted to an ordinary high school.

Later, Li Quan devoted himself to pursuing his studies, and buried the ignorant love of his youth deep in his heart. A few years later, he had no contact with Wu Ziming and Gong Shaping.

Thinking back to his youth at this moment, Li Quan still finds it particularly interesting.

"Li Quan, the shuttle bus from our town to the county seat is only once in the morning and once in the afternoon. If you want to go to the county seat to withdraw money, I'm afraid you can only take the trip at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. I have a car, and there is nothing urgent anyway, so I might as well send you to the county seat. ”

Zhang Daniu is still as enthusiastic as when he was a child.

"This ...... Not so good!"

Li Quan refused.

"Classmate for nine years, when I helped you fight before, why didn't you say anything bad?" Zhang Daniu pulled him and walked out. "Don't be pretentious with me, get in the car! ”

Zhang Daniu didn't say anything, and pulled Li Quan into a silver van parked outside the bank.

It seems to be from Chang'an.

Although Li Quan doesn't understand cars, he can see at a glance that the price of this van should be tens of thousands.

"Hehe, this is the first car I bought in my life, and the landing price cost more than 73,000 yuan. Although it is a garbage truck at the bottom in the eyes of people in the city, I am very content. It is very convenient to drive it to the city to pull goods. ”

Zhang Daniu introduced with a smile.

"Da Niu, you can do it, among our classmates back then, there should be only a handful of people who bought private cars. The next time I see the homeroom teacher of the year, I have to tell her that Zhang Daniu in our class has only finished junior high school, and he is still promising. ”

Li Quan's emotional intelligence is not so low as to say that the car is bad.

He also really admires Zhang Daniu.

Because many twenty-three-year-old young people are still gnawing at the old and asking their parents for money to spend.

Zhang Daniu not only made his career prosperous, but also made money to buy the first car in his life, which is already very remarkable.

"Haha, don't hurt me. A while ago, I also met our junior high school homeroom teacher, Mr. Bai. She is retired, planting flowers and grass at home, reading and writing, very leisurely and comfortable. It's just that her health is not very good, and she always coughs. I guess it was when I was teaching, I was angry with a naughty student like me. ”

Zhang Daniu was praised by Li Quan a few words, and he couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

"Teacher Bai has already retired, and when I go home for the Chinese New Year, I have to go and see her. It was thanks to her that I am where I am today. Li Quan thought of the former homeroom teacher, and his heart was filled with gratitude.

Mr. Bai is a very responsible and good teacher.

Unlike some teachers nowadays, who are extremely business-minded, they only pursue their own interests and do not care about the growth of students at all.

At every turn, let the parents of students enroll their children in which cram school.

The child's daily homework is also checked and tutored by the parents themselves.

These teachers have long forgotten their original intentions and their work ethic.

It is supposed to teach and educate people, but it has become a tool to use students as a tool to make money.

The van sped down the road.

Along the way, Zhang Daniu talked endlessly about his growth experience over the years, as well as some observations and interesting stories.

Li Quan occasionally interjected a few sentences, and more often than not, he was a qualified listener.

"Oh, by the way, when we get to the county seat, let's not eat dumplings. I'm in for a treat, and I'm full. Plus, it's going to give you an unexpected surprise. ”

Zhang Daniu smiled mysteriously.

"Unexpected surprise for me?" Li Quan didn't know what kind of medicine this old classmate was selling in his gourd.

From the town to the county seat, all are standard county roads, asphalt roads.

The country has vigorously engaged in infrastructure construction in recent years, and Li Quan can feel the rapid change of the countryside.

Forty minutes later, the van drove into the city.

Looking at the high-rise buildings rising from the ground, Li Quan couldn't help but sigh that the changes in the county town are really great.

"Li Quan, do you see? What is being built over there is the Country Garden real estate project. It is likely to become a new urban center in the future. Now the house is still in the pre-sale stage, about 3,000 per square meter, if you have money, invest in buying a set, even if it is a loan to buy, you can appreciate in the future and make a lot of money. ”

Zhang Daniu's eyes revealed the shrewdness unique to a businessman.

Li Quan really admires this old classmate, although he hasn't read much, he has a flexible mind and a long-term vision.

In recent years, house prices have been rising.

Buying a house has also become the most popular investment and financial management project.

"Three thousand yuan per square meter is indeed not expensive, compared with the house price of seventy or eighty thousand or one hundred thousand square meters in the magic capital, it is completely the price of cabbage. Li Quan didn't have the idea of buying a house in the county.

"I have already contracted the construction of 11 houses this year, and if nothing else, it is estimated that I can earn more than 200,000 yuan. When the time comes, I will pay off the loan for the purchase of equipment, and if I still have money left, I will buy a house with a down payment. With a house in the city, I have become a real city person, and I can be regarded as really getting ahead. ”

Zhang Daniu said his plan.

"Li Quan, what about you? You can earn tens of thousands of dollars a year, and a down payment is only a hundred thousand, aren't you going to buy a set?"

"Not at the moment. Li Quan shook his head. "By the way, how much does it cost to build a new house in the countryside now?"

Li Quan wanted to tear down the old house in his hometown and build a new villa to make his parents more comfortable.

Zhang Daniu is his old classmate, and he happens to be engaged in this business again, so it is better to take care of the old classmate's business.

"It depends on how big you want to build, whether it is a flat-story brick house, a two-story small western-style house, or a luxury villa. Their specific cost needs to be calculated in detail. ”

Zhang Daniu talked about these things and seemed quite professional.

"Then what if we build a villa?" Li Quan definitely wanted to build a villa.

"If you build a villa, you don't have a basement, and if the total area does not exceed 300 square meters, the general cost is about 500,000 yuan. Including decoration, fences, floor tiles and other expenses are all included. ”

The price quoted by Zhang Daniu made Li Quan's heart pound.

500,000 to be able to build a big villa, which is very tempting. In the magic capital, the price of a villa is hundreds of millions.

Li Quan already had the idea of asking Zhang Daniu to build a villa for his family.

"Okay, there is the branch of China Construction Bank in front, you go and withdraw the money, I will wait for you in the car. Don't be too long, you won't be allowed to park for long periods of time. ”

Zhang Daniu parked the car on the side of the road and turned off the engine.

......

A few minutes later, Li Quan had a CCB handbag in his hand.

The 50,000 yuan I just took was packed inside.

Wrapped in a black plastic bag.

The bank's service is pretty good.

"Hurry up and get in the car, I'll take you to lunch." After dinner, I had to rush back to the town to work. ”

Zhang Daniu waved at Li Quan.

After the van started again, it turned left and right, and finally stopped in front of a dumpling restaurant.

"Northeast Dumpling Restaurant!"

Or a chain store.

Looking at the decoration of the store, it is indeed much more high-end than the general dumpling restaurant.

"Don't be surprised for a moment. Zhang Daniu winked at Li Quan, smiled mysteriously, and got out of the car first.

Li Quan carried a paper bag from China Construction Bank and got out of the car.

He followed Zhang Daniu into the dumpling restaurant full of doubts.

Could it be that there is any secret to this dumpling restaurant?

"Welcome!"

As soon as he entered, a waitress greeted him with a smile.

"Li Quan, come over and see who this is?" Zhang Daniu smiled and beckoned to Li Quan.

Li Quan raised his eyes to look at the woman behind the cash register.

"Ah...... Squad leader!"

He didn't expect to see Gong Shaping, the class president when he was in junior high school, here.

I haven't seen her for many years, and she has become more beautiful and moving, especially the big eyes that can talk, which make it even more difficult for men to resist. She wears tight-fitting overalls and outlines her fiery figure with extraordinarily curvy figures.

Snow-white skin, delicate makeup.

It is definitely a rare top beauty in a small county.

"You, are you Li Quan, a classmate at the same table back then?" Gong Shaping was also extremely surprised when she saw Li Quan, with a happy smile on her face.

"Hehe, the squad leader still remembers me. No wonder Zhang Daniu said he wanted to surprise me. I haven't seen each other for many years, and the squad leader has become more beautiful. Li Quan greeted with a generous smile.

After many years, when he unexpectedly saw the squad leader he had a crush on, Li Quan found that his heart did not make any waves.

It's more of a nostalgia.

The ignorant love of my youth is actually not real love at all.

At that time, I only knew that I liked to be with her, and I would be very happy to see her every day.

"Yo, the little boy who would blush when he said a word, would only lower his head, and didn't dare to look at people, has really become different. The mouth has become sweeter, the person has become more handsome, and the temperament is also very unique, elegant and confident, and generous. Gee...... I used to think that only the eighteen changes of women, but I didn't expect you men to become attractive too!"

Gong Shaping's big eyes stared at Li Quan up and down, full of admiration.
