It is also the only star-rated hotel in Fengcheng City.

The consumption here is naturally top-notch, if it weren't for Ma Daqiang patting his chest and saying that he could mess up the venue, those students in charge of the party organization would never dare to choose the party venue in such a high-end place.

The specific arrangements for the party have been widely announced in the class: 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock in the afternoon is the registration time, the first students to gather in the banquet hall, can enjoy the exotic elegant music in the banquet hall, while tasting the fragrant coffee; 5 o'clock to 8 o'clock is the dinner time, after the dinner to the KTV VIP room on the fourth floor, the organizing committee also booked a number of exquisite and comfortable rooms on the eighth floor of the hotel for the students who came from other places to stay, the next morning after drinking morning tea in the banquet hall, set to go to the alma mater Fengcheng Yi, to take a group photo.

Lin Qiang stayed in Wu Jiming's KTV that night, and he has a few rooms here.

Wu Ji is going out to talk to people about things tomorrow night, and when he accompanies Lin Qiang for dinner, he calls Manager Zhou of KTV over and introduces him to Lin Qiang, so that Lin Qiang can treat this place as his own place, play with confidence, and don't be polite.

Lin Qiang thanked Wu Jiming, came to the guest room after dinner, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling large glass window, and looked at the increasingly prosperous Fengcheng street scene with deep feelings.

This is Pioneer Street, when Lin Qiang was high, Pioneer Street was just a two-lane dilapidated street, and now it has become the most prosperous commercial area in Fengcheng City, and the original county government seat has also become a magnificent city square.

The city square is facing the South Gate Street, and the entrance of the street is dozens of meters into the original New Street right lane. Zhou Jie grew up here and didn't move to Shuguang Road until her sophomore year. There are many memories of Lin Qiang that cannot be erased here: the first time she was at home, the first time she saw her parents, the first time she wrote poems for her on the rooftop, and the first time she accompanied her back here to visit her kind grandmother.

Lin Qiang's heart was touched for no reason, he walked downstairs and turned into Nanmen Street along Pioneer Road, and found the right lane of Xinjie, but this place has already changed, the original large number of low-rise residential buildings have become high-rise buildings, and Lin Qiang can't even find the location of Zhou Jie's house.

Twenty years, a full twenty years, it is said that the cells of the human body should be replaced every seven years, and many people and things that have been experienced will gradually forget with metabolism, but some memories buried in Lin Qiang's heart are still so vivid and unforgettable.

Looking at the unfamiliar streets and the strange pedestrians hurrying by, Lin Qiang sighed lightly in his heart, and gave birth to a feeling of "playing the command room for twenty years, and Xiao Lang is a passerby from now on".

Lin Qiang took out his mobile phone, flipped out the address book, and found Zhou Jie's number, originally wanted to call her, but his hand slidied, but he clicked the key to send a message, and smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that he rarely talked to her directly, mostly chatting through QQ, msn, or sending messages, so he edited a message and sent it over: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Soon, a message sounded on the phone, "Just had dinner and watched TV at home, how are you?"

"In the afternoon, I arrived in Fengcheng, and now I am wandering around the streets alone, at the entrance of Xinjie and alleys. ”

After Lin Qiang's message was sent, it took more than two minutes to receive Zhou Jie's reply, and there was only one word in the text message plus a series of ellipses: "Oh。。。。。。。 ”。

Lin Qiang stared at his phone for a while, and then sent her a message: "When will you return to Fengcheng tomorrow?"

"Morning bus, go back with my mother. ”

"Oh, is it convenient to call you now?"

"Hmmm... ”

Lin Qiang walked to a secluded place and called Zhou Jie's phone, "Your mother went over to help you take care of the child again?"

"It's been almost a month, come back with me tomorrow, and come back with me the day after tomorrow. ”

"Your mom is okay, I haven't seen her in years. ”

"Thank you. My parents are in good health. ”

"What time will I be in Fengcheng tomorrow? I'll pick you up at the station?"

There was an obvious pause on the other end of the phone, "Thank you, no need, my parents' house is now very close to the bus station, two or three minutes walk." I went back to my parents' house for dinner in the afternoon and rushed directly to the hotel in the afternoon. ”

Lin Qiang originally wanted to ask her to have a meal at noon, but when he heard her say this, he gave up, knowing that she was at home now, and it would be inconvenient to speak, so he chatted for a while, and said "see you tomorrow" to each other and then closed the line.

After walking aimlessly on the street for a while, he was too bored, so he called Secretary Yan.

Secretary Yan was just transferred to Fucheng School as the principal last year, he said that he was with Wu Xiaoming and Shrimp Gong, and was still discussing the details of tomorrow's party, and when he heard that Lin Qiang had arrived in Fengcheng, he asked him to come over to find them quickly.

Lin Qiang thought about it and said that he was near the city square, so let them rush over to the Sun City Business Building, and open a KTV private room by himself and wait.

Half an hour later, Lao Yan and the others rushed over.

We haven't seen each other for ten years, the last time we met was the year when Lin Qianggang resigned and went to the sea, and once when I returned to Yuantan Porcelain Factory to buy goods, I had dinner with everyone at the river Xianfang by the Beijiang River.

"Old witch, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're in good shape. Lin Qiang patted Wu Xiaoming on the shoulder and said. In his imagination, an official in the system like Wu Xiaoming, who can often eat and drink at public expense, although he is not so pot-bellied, should have a belly, but he didn't expect Wu Xiaoming to still maintain a good figure.

"Lin Qiang, we insist on exercising every day, running and swimming, and often playing table tennis, which is like us, too lazy to exercise, and the belly slowly grows out. Shrimp Gong laughed. He is now the director of the teaching department of the city school, and he is the main football player in the class.

Lin Qiang has rarely exercised systematically over the years, but many of the things in the factory are done by himself, plus he has good living habits, and his figure has not been blessed, but he has been a lot stronger before, but he feels that his physical strength is not as good as before, and sometimes he is a little out of breath when he goes to the stadium to play a few games of table tennis with Xiaoyan.

Wu Xiaoming was still a little shy in front of his old classmates, "Lin Qiang, your table tennis has not regressed, right? ”

"No problem, I'll probably have to run to Fengcheng a lot after a while. Lin Qiang said with a smile.

"Lin Qiang, you are still in the business of building materials, you should have done well in the past few years, right?" Lao Yan had been to Lin Qiang's polished brick processing factory many years ago, and he also knew about Lin Qiang's ups and downs.

"It's also related to building materials, thanks to the blessings of the old classmates, it's so-so, you can support your family. Lin Qiang said, "Come, what do you drink?" beer or red wine?"

"Red bar, drink too much beer and grow belly. "Lao Yan said.

Lin Qiang then asked the waiter to open a bottle of red wine, and spent a lot of words explaining that he really couldn't drink with everyone, the three of them were quite able to drink, a 500ml bottle of Hennessy was about to bottom out unconsciously in the chat, Lin Qiang also wanted the service to open another bottle, Lao Yan hurriedly stopped him and said: "Forget Lin Qiang, it's enough to drink this bottle tonight, tomorrow night is the main event." Hu Qi said that he would bring two boxes of Hennessy and two boxes of Feixia liquid tomorrow, two bottles of red and two bottles of white on each table. ”

"Hu Qi is still a trading company now, right?" asked Lin Qiang. Hu Qi was admitted to a vocational school that year, but did not graduate and came back to Fengcheng, with the sponsorship of his father to start a business, it was Lin Qiang's class of high school classmates who were the first to go to the sea to do business, and later by virtue of the father's relationship as the deputy director of the Fengcheng Economic and Trade Bureau at that time, Fengcheng Yuqian Trading Co., Ltd. was established, participated in government procurement projects, and made a lot of money. When Lin Qiang was still in the ceramics business, Hu Qi had purchased a large number of cheap polished tiles from Lin Qiang for the purchase of decoration materials for the new office building of the Economic and Trade Bureau. Later, after Lin Qiang suffered a heavy setback in the business world, he cut off contact, and I heard from his classmates that Hu Qike has been prosperous over the years, and at this class reunion, Hu Qi spent a lot of money and contracted the banquet meals and wine supply.

Lao Yan said that Hu Qi is still a trading company, and this time it is all up to him and Ma Daqiang to come forward, so that the class reunion can be held in a high-end place like Haolaideng.

Wu Xiaoming took a sip of wine and said, "Lin Qiang, you are also a big boss, what do you mean?"

Lin Qiang smiled and said: "How can I follow them? One of them has a lot of money, the other has real power, and I am a grass people, so I can only do what I can, this time I prepared a commemorative gift for each student and teacher who participated in the party, and the gift has been placed in my car and will be sent directly to the hotel tomorrow afternoon." ”

After sending Lao Yan away, Lin Qiang returned to the guest room, took a comfortable hot bath, and turned off the lights to rest. Early tomorrow morning, he will have to go to Wu Jiming's newly built waste electrical appliance processing plant as planned, and by the way, discuss the matter of Wu Jiming's repeated mention of increasing the supply of goods in large quantities.

"Confucian Merchants" is currently being written online, and I hope to see everyone's comments and suggestions. Friends who are waiting for more can read "Time Apocalypse" first to learn about Lin Qiang's early growth experience. Thank you very much!
