Chapter 69: 300,000 in the shit tank (2)
If you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are good, you will help the world. In fact, in everyone's heart, there is a guy called kindness, and Gou Sigang is no exception.
"I also want to do something for my hometown, but everything has been done by Brother Long and Mr. Huang, although I don't have much money, but if I still need it, I can also contribute some money. However, I don't know if there is a chance?" Huang Dong's words just now touched Da Gangzi a little, outsiders know what to do for their hometown, and they are born and raised here, so they should also express it.
Liu Yalong glanced at Huang Dong at this time, and somewhat understood why Huang Dong wanted to invite Da Gangzi to come, he had his own ideas, but what he didn't expect was that Chuhongwan Town was Da Gangzi's hometown, and Da Gangzi wanted to take the initiative to get some money, which saved Huang Dong's tongue.
Liu Yalong thought to himself, this Huang Dong, how can he have an idea as soon as he turns his head, if his method works, Song Jiacheng and Xia Weiren will definitely remember their favors, even if the solution fails, Da Gangzi is unwilling to take the money, and he must not offend Da Gangzi, and he also invited him to eat a very distinctive meal, which is done without leakage.
"Haha, Brother Gangzi, although we have just met, I can see that you are a conscientious businessman, in fact, this kind of kindness is not necessarily only for Flood Bay Town, but also for the entire North Bay District. ”
Da Gangzi heard something in Huang Dong's words and asked, "Mr. Huang, what do you want to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
"I heard Director Xia of the District Education Bureau say that now various primary and secondary schools are expanding their libraries and buying sports equipment, which requires a sum of money, and Brother Long and I originally wanted to do this, but if Brother Gang Zi has a heart, then I think the entire education system in the North Bay District, including primary and secondary school students, will thank you. "Huang Dong is a bit like a cadre of the Education Bureau, trying his best to lobby Da Gangzi.
"I don't know how much money it costs, I don't have as much strength as the two of you?" Da Gangzi was still quite interested in what Huang Dong said.
"It's not good, more than 100,000 is about the same, or you can meet with Director Xia to talk. "Huang Dong is not afraid that Xia Weiren and Da Gangzi will meet, and Da Gangzi's career will not conflict with him.
"Director Xia, is he here?" Although Da Gangzi's business has grown in the past few years, he has basically never been in contact with government officials, and the cadres he can contact are all officials in charge of sheep.
"No, I'll make an appointment to see if we can meet. After Huang Dong finished speaking, he called Ma Xiaoying and explained a few words.
Ma Xiaoying put down Huang Dong's phone and called Xia Weiren, after the phone was connected, Xia Weiren's voice was a little low, "Hello, Mr. Ma, I'm in a meeting? What's the matter?" In fact, this is Ma Xiaoying's phone, other calls, Xia Weiren can't answer at all, he is holding a meeting for the overall situation, mobilizing everyone to find a way, can solve a little is a little, there is not so much money, can only gradually expand the primary and secondary school library and stadium step by step. But these people in the bureau are all from education, and no one can worry about Director Xia.
"I'm sorry, Director Xia, I'm sorry to disturb you, or I'll talk to you later. Ma Xiaoying asked tentatively.
"Tell me what's going on, I'll listen. "Ma Xiaoying is someone from Song Jiacheng, Xia Weiren knows it, but he can't call his sister-in-law openly.
"I'm going to put you in touch with a businessman from Mongolia who said he'd like to contribute money to help us in the North Bay area expand our primary and secondary school libraries and stadiums. After Ma Xiaoying finished speaking, she waited for Xia Weiren's reply.
"Mr. Ma, is the news true?" Xia Weiren could lower his voice and ask, he didn't doubt what Ma Xiaoying said, but happiness came too suddenly, and he had to get used to it.
"Yes, now that person is with Huang Dong and Liu Yalong, both of whom are inspecting the Central Primary School of Chuhongwan Town, if it is convenient for you, I can ask them to come back to visit you in the district. Ma Xiaoying has always maintained due respect for Xia Weiren, which makes Xia Weiren have a good impression of her, this time, she also helped him so much, for Ma Xiaoying, Xia Weiren has a real and real sense of closeness for the first time, and it does not involve Song Jiacheng's closeness at all.
"Then don't need it, how can you let our guests run back and forth, I'll contact Mr. Huang now, I'll go to Flood Bay Town immediately, go and meet him, thank you Mr. Ma, thank you Mr. Ma." Xia Weiren put down the phone, immediately announced the adjournment of the meeting, and hurriedly didn't go back to the office, went downstairs to get in the car and went straight to the town of Chuhongwan. Xia Weiren knew that if the expansion of the central school in Flood Bay and the expansion of the library and stadium in the district were implemented, it would be a big political achievement for him.
On the way, Xia Weiren took the initiative to call Huang Dong and told him that now he was rushing to the town of Chuhongwan, and he must wait for him and have a light meal together at noon.
Huang Dong told Liu Yalong and Da Gangzi the news that Xia Weiren was rushing over, but Da Gangzi was very surprised, thinking that with his own money, he could still go to the director of the Education Bureau of the Labor District to make a trip in person, I am afraid that there must be a relationship between Huang Dong and Liu Yalong. Otherwise, if he wants to meet this director, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
Arrived at the school before Xia Weiren, is the principal of the central school Gou Chunxiao, his home is not far from the school, is at home with a few friends mahjong, a heard Liu old man on the phone said, someone is coming to repair the school, the card game pushed, riding an electric car hurried over.
Gou Chunxiao put the electric car up, saw two BMW cars parked on the playground, a group of people chatting next to the car, a group of people measuring the house and the playground, this really believes, there is indeed a God of Wealth coming, he has declared to the above many times, said to expand the school, at least repair the old school buildings, but has not replied, this time it seems that the district has paid attention.
Gou Chunxiao walked up to Huang Dong and the three of them, and took the initiative to say hello, "Excuse me, how many of you are from the city?"
Huang Dong and Liu Yalong also saw Gou Chunxiao coming over, but they didn't know who this person was, and they didn't take the initiative to say hello, only Da Gangzi turned his back to Gou Chunxiao and didn't see him.
"Well, we're from the city, who are you?" Huang Dong vaguely agreed.
"This is the principal of our school. At this time, Lao Liu Tou came over and took the initiative to introduce Gou Chunxiao, Gou Chunxiao stood tall, after all, in his own one-acre and three-point land, especially in front of Lao Liu, he always had to come up with some of the principal's style.
"Oh, Principal Gou, disrespectful!" Liu Yalong and Huang Dong hurriedly came over to shake hands with Gou Chunxiao to show respect, which made Gou Chunxiao very face-saving, thinking that after all, he was a person from the city, although he had strength, he was still very polite, "Let's not stay here, come to my office." Principal Gou warmly greeted Huang Dong and the others into the house, and shouted to Lao Liu, "Lao Liu, help me boil some water." ”
Lao Liu Tou agreed, and hurriedly went to boil water, at this time Da Gangzi also turned around, and looked at Gou Chunxiao with a smile, Gou Chunxiao suddenly felt that Da Gangzi was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, and he couldn't help laughing at himself, "I'm dazzled, people are all big entrepreneurs from the city, where have I seen it." Seeing that Da Gangzi kept smiling at him, he was inexplicably a little excited.
A few people entered the principal's office, which was very simple, a mottled desk, an old-fashioned sofa chair behind it, opposite the desk, a long sofa was placed against the wall, Gou Chunxiao let the three of them sit on the sofa, and pulled a chair to sit down.
"Haven't asked you what to call it?" He saw that although Liu Yalong didn't talk much, he was sitting in the middle position, and he should be a leader, so he asked Liu Yalong.
"Principal Gou, you are polite, my name is Liu Yalong, you can call me Lao Liu, this is the general manager of our company. Liu Yalong introduced himself and Huang Dong.
"Xiao Huang, Xiao Huang!" Huang Dong also followed politely.
But when he wanted to introduce Da Gangzi, Liu Yalong was a little difficult, he had been called Da Gangzi all these years, and he didn't know what his big name was. Liu Yalong looked at Da Gangzi, Da Gangzi also turned his head to look at him, and saw that he didn't know how to introduce himself, no wonder, except for a few people, basically no one knew his real name, but Da Gangzi ignored Liu Yalong, and still looked at Gou Chunxiao and smiled.
Gou Chunxiao saw that Liu Yalong had finished introducing himself and Huang Dong, so he didn't follow, and asked, "Who is this?"
"Canned, you really don't remember me?" Da Gangzi didn't wait for Liu Yalong to answer, he knew, Liu Yalong didn't know how to answer, so he simply asked Gou Chunxiao directly.
"Canned" is his nickname, only his closest friends when he was a child know this nickname, mainly because Gou Chunxiao loved canned food when he was a child, and in order to eat canned food, he pretended to be sick a few times. At that time, canned food was a rarity and was not readily available. But he didn't care about pure filial piety, and when he was uncomfortable, he shouted "canned, canned", so he got such a nickname.
Hearing Da Gangzi call him "canned", Gou Chunxiao bounced up from the chair, the people who knew his nickname were the closest people, how did this person know? Who is it?
Liu Yalong and Huang Dong were also confused by this play, and looked at the two of them looking at each other in a daze, and finally Huang Dong couldn't help but ask, "Brother Gangzi, do you know each other?"
As soon as Gou Chunxiao heard Huang Dong call him "Brother Gangzi", he immediately remembered it and asked uncertainly, "Isn't it Sigangzi?"
Da Gangzi listened to this "Four Gangzi", laughed, and said with a smile that tears were about to flow out, Huang Dong could see that Da Gangzi was revealing his true feelings.
"Brother Canned, do you remember me?" After a long time, Da Gangzi stopped laughing, tightly held Gou Chunxiao, who was being laughed at, and shook Gou Chunxiao's hand vigorously.
"Sigangzi, this is you, I haven't seen you for so many years, where did you go?" Gou Chunxiao was very excited, outsiders could see that the relationship between the two brothers must have been very good when they were young.
Da Gangzi and Gou Chunxiao are distant relatives, the two families are of the same clan, Da Gangzi's surname is Gou, his name is Gou Sigang, when he was a child, Da Gangzi's family had four brothers, the eldest brother Gou Dayong and the second brother Gou Ermeng are twins, five years older than Da Gangzi, and the third brother Gou Sanqiang is two years older than Da Gangzi. Da Gangzi's father named his child very simply, "brave and strong" and "pillar of the country" These are the most common names of children in that era.
The eldest brother and the second brother don't have to say, when they give birth to the third brother, the life of the family is really difficult, and the two of them don't want to want it anymore, it stands to reason that the third child should be called Gou Sangang, but Da Gangzi and his father are afraid that after the third gang, there will be the top four, so he simply used the last strong word of "brave and strong" to let the third child back the cover, thinking that there would be no more one to eat.
But I didn't expect that the third strong was just two years old, and the fourth came again, and he was still a son. So, Da Gangzi has his big name "Gou Sigang", when he was in school, because of this name, his classmates always called him a shit tank, Da Gangzi doesn't care, if you can beat it, you will be beaten if you go up, and if you can't beat it, you can call it if you love it.
Speaking of Da Gangzi's childhood, he was actually not very happy. Once, a fortune teller passed by in the town, and after seeing Da Gangzi, he said that Da Gangzi had a hard life, and when he was a young man, he was a young brother, and he was bumpy, and if he didn't get it right, he would be imprisoned.
At that time, Da Gangzi's father almost beat this fortune teller, Da Gangzi has four brothers, and he is still a young brother, so he wants a few more, not to ask for his old life, these fortune tellers are just fooling people.
It's strange to say, not long after the fortune teller left, when Gou Dayong and Gou Ermeng were playing in the town, they were abducted by traffickers, and a year later, Gou Sanqiang drowned and was not saved. Da Gangzi's mother lost three sons in two years and became crazy, Da Gangzi's father believed in the fortune teller's words a little, but when Gangzi and his father also died in a car accident when Da Gangzi was in the fourth grade of primary school.
The whole family only left Da Gangzi and the crazy mother, Da Gangzi, at that time, the people in the town were still used to call him Si Gangzi, Si Gangzi was very sensible, his own family had a few acres of land near the edge of the town, and the villagers helped him to serve these few acres of land, and it was autumn, and the grain was sold, which was enough for Si Gangzi and his mother to eat and wear for a year, who had children wearing small clothes, and also took two sets, what was delicious, and it was not stingy to catch up, and gave Si Gangzi a bite. Therefore, Sigangzi grew up eating hundreds of meals and wearing hundreds of clothes.
Gou Chunxiao and Sigangzi are in the same class, but Gou Chunxiao is a good student and studies well, Sigangzi is a naughty child who doesn't like to study. But the relationship between these two little brothers was very good when they were in school, and whatever delicious food Gou Chunxiao's family had to give to Sigangzi.
Slowly, both of them grew up, after Sigangzi graduated from junior high school, the crazy mother didn't know where to go, Sigangzi didn't want to stay in the town, in his young heart, although he was very grateful to the townsfolk in the town, but he felt that here, what could leave him was painful memories.
So, Sigangzi went to Beihua to break into society, and now there is the current Dagangzi, after graduating from Gou Chunxiao Normal School, he became a teacher in the central school, and later became the principal here.
The two have been out of touch for decades, but they didn't expect that today because of the meeting between Huang Dong and Liu Yalong, the brothers reunited after many years, and the two had mixed feelings.
"Sigang, where have you been all these years, why don't you come back to take a look?" Gou Chunxiao punched Da Gangzi hard, and his eyes were still a little red.
"Brother canned, no, Brother Chunxiao, a lot has happened over the years, and I'm chatting with you slowly when I have time, in short, I didn't have the face to come back before, and the days have just been better in the past few years, so I won't come back." Da Gangzi steadied his mind, took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag, and lit one for Gou Chunxiao.
"Yo, my Sigang brothers are now rich, and they all smoke China. Wow, wow!" Gou Chunxiao took care of talking to Da Gangzi, but snubbed Huang Dong and Liu Yalong. Huang Dong and Liu Yalong are happy for the two of them, and they won't pick on them. Especially listening to Da Gangzi tell about the past, it's quite pitiful to Da Gangzi.
When Ting Gou Chunxiao said, I heard the elders say that the fortune teller told the fortune of the four gangzi, Huang Dong and Liu Yalong thought together, this fortune teller is a master, when he was a child, the family had no four people, only the big gang son was left, and in Beihua, Fu Yuanjiang, Wang Jiaqiang, Lin Zhiling, and an old man died in Mongolian Province, which was exchanged for the prodigal son of the big gangzi turned back, it seems that the fortune teller is right, the life of the big gang is hard, if all of them are said, then the big gang son next, it is really a rich life.
Da Gangzi also heard others say this thing, I didn't understand it when I was a child, he always looked forward to meeting a nobleman when he was older, when he met Wang Jiaqiang, he thought he had met a nobleman, and as a result, the nobleman died. When he met Liu Zhao, he thought he had met a nobleman, but as a result, the nobleman harmed him. In the end, I met my boss in Mongolia Province, and the old man, this time I really met a nobleman, and the days to come will get better and better.
Gou Sigang and Gou Chunxiao, the two brothers haven't seen each other for many years, and they chatted for an hour. In the middle, Lao Liu Tou sent hot water, Huang Lin and the two accountants also entered the office, because the school was about to start, the school's small boiler had begun to burn, and the house was not cold.
"What are you talking about? It's so lively!" With the laughter and questions outside the door, Lao Liu Tou pushed the door open, and standing behind him was Xia Weiren, director of the Beiwan District Education Bureau, Gou Chunxiao saw that the leader was coming, quickly got up and ran a few steps to the door, stretched out his hand and held Xia Weiren's hand, "Oh, leader, why didn't you notify me in advance when you came, I can pick you up?"
Xia Weiren laughed, "Pure filial piety, we don't pay attention to those false courtesies, besides, I didn't come this time because of you." Saying that, he bypassed Gou Chunxiao and came over to shake hands with Huang Dong and Liu Yalong, Liu Yalong also hurriedly pulled Da Gangzi over and introduced Xia Weiren and said, "Xia Ju, this is Gou Sigang, Mr. Gou, and an entrepreneur born and raised in our Hongwan Town, this time I came back, and I am also ready to contribute to the education of my hometown." ”
Xia Weiren immediately understood that it should be Mr. Gou who would pay to help expand the library and stadium, so he took Gou Sigang's hand and said, "I thank Mr. Gou for his generosity on behalf of my hometown, and the children in my hometown will not forget Mr. Gou." ”
Da Gangzi shook hands with such a big cadre, and he was still a little unaccustomed to it for a while, and he responded in a sneering manner, "Xia Ju, this is what I should do, you must not be polite, you are welcome." ”
A few people sat down again, Huang Lin took two accountants to other offices, Xia Weiren very politely introduced the expansion of the library and stadium to Gou Sigang, there are currently a total of ten primary and secondary schools do not have libraries and stadiums, and what is needed now is not the cost of infrastructure, but the purchase of books and sports equipment, the cost of each is about 15,000, and ten is 150,000.
"Mr. Gou, no matter how many schools you solve the library and stadium, it is all one heart. Xia Weiren was afraid that Gou Sigang would be under pressure, and explained that it was not necessary to solve the problems of ten schools at once.
Da Gangzi thought about it for a while, and said to Xia Weiren, "Xia Ju, I'm not an entrepreneur, but I've made a little money in the past two years, so I took all the 150,000 yuan from these ten schools." ”
"Thank you, thank you. Xia Weiren didn't wait for Gou Sigang to finish speaking, he got up and held Gou Sigang's hand again to express his gratitude.
"Also, there's one more thing. Da Gangzi said, glanced at Gou Chunxiao, Gou Chunxiao was also looking at him, Gou Chunxiao thought, this brother has a future, and his face is bright.
You say. Xia Weiren was also very polite.
"I'll take another 150,000 yuan and use it in this central school to improve the office conditions for teachers and Principal Gou, you look at the principal's office, how can you look like a central school?" Gou Sigang said, patting the couch that had cracked and peeled off the skin when he sat down.
"No, I don't use it, I still use it on students. Gou Chunxiao didn't expect that the Sigang brothers actually proposed to take out 150,000 yuan to improve office conditions, no matter whether the money can be used in the end or not, he is still very grateful for this heart.
"Haha, okay, Mr. Gou still cares about his hometown, and he must do it according to Mr. Gou's ideas. "Xia Weiren is the highest-ranking cadre here, and what he promised will definitely be done.
