Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Superfluous

The car quickly started and slowly drove out of the county seat towards the provincial capital Lincheng. Lincheng is not an ancient city, there is no long history and culture here, there is no majestic modern building, only a railway station, it still looks a little dilapidated, the new area has not been developed, and it is still on the planning drawings, compared to the Lincheng memory of Chen Shi's previous life, there is still a lack of a huge people's square, but it is already under construction, and it seems to be about to be completed.

At five or six o'clock in the evening, the car passed by the People's Square under construction, where the huge statue of the leader had been erected, the fountain had been built, but there was not a drop of water, and the perimeter of the construction site was enclosed with some blue gauze, and the building materials could be seen faintly appearing inside.

Seeing the People's Square, which was about to be completed, Chen Shi's mind flew to the huge store under the square, which contained a large supermarket. But of course, it hasn't opened yet, and the large supermarket in his memory is Wal-Mart, and it would be great if he won the right to operate the supermarket before Wal-Mart? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but boil his blood, but the reality made him fall to the bottom because of financial difficulties. It is conceivable how much rent it costs for a supermarket that is nearly two or two football fields, even if the price is cheap and the house price is very low, but without millions of capital, don't even think about touching it.

Now it is very difficult to get him to come up with a million, he only has tens of thousands of dollars in his hand, it would be fine if he was given another period of time, but does he still have time? Thinking about it, he can't help but be a little frustrated.

Zheng Tong, who was sitting next to Chen Shi, was introducing the various landscapes in a vivid way, from the name of each street to each large building complex, and she seemed to be familiar with it. It is hard for Chen Shi to imagine that a person is so familiar with this, how many times does it have to go through it to remember, and how many times does it have to be visited to remember it so deeply?

"Are you so familiar with this place?" asked Chen Shi with great curiosity.

"Of course, I know every street here, I can walk out with my eyes closed, I promise not to get lost, and I am more familiar than the taxi driver. ”

"Why are you so familiar?" Chen Shi asked again.

Zheng Tong said proudly: "Of course it's shopping, I'll go to the street if it's okay, I'll go to the street if I have been walking for a long time, so I naturally remember it clearly, if you come a few more times, you won't forget it, I don't believe you can give it a try." ”

For this kind of thing, Chen Shicai is reluctant to give it a try. He really admired Zheng Tong for being able to go up the street for so long and remember every street clearly.

Soon, they got off at the bus station, and then the two took a taxi straight to Mingzu University. Chen Shi happened to be on the same road as Zheng Tong, and after going to school, Chen Shi also asked Zheng Tong for help, so he generously paid the fare, and Zheng Tong did not refuse.

The taxi didn't enter the school and stopped at the gate, and then after the two got out of the car, Chen Shi helped Zheng Tong carry the luggage bag and followed her all the way, like a servant and a boyfriend. Zheng Tong raised her head proudly, proudly like a princess, walking on campus she seemed to be inspecting her territory, occasionally meeting acquaintances, and even curiously asked her about Chen Shi's identity, and some even joked generously.

In this regard, Chen Shi did not say a word, in the other party's territory, of course he should be low-key. Sent Zheng Tong to the door of the girls' dormitory, Zheng Tong asked him to wait, and only after putting down his luggage did he help him find his sister's dormitory.

Chen Shi wanted to refuse, but he couldn't screw the other party, so he had to let her toss. After putting down the luggage, Zheng Tong asked Chen Shidao: "Your sister is from the teacher's college, right? Go, I'll take you to the door of their dormitory, and I'll help you ask the dormitory manager when the time comes." ”

Chen Shi said with a bitter face: "I said eldest sister, I can just make a phone call, why are you so troublesome?"

Zheng Tong suddenly realized: "Ah, by the way, you have a phone, so why didn't you say it earlier." ”

My sister was sent to school by my father himself, of course, there was a phone number in their dormitory, and my father left the phone number when he came back, how could he not know? He smiled and said, "You didn't ask, you were talking all the time, and I couldn't say anything." ”

Zheng Tong was slightly embarrassed and a little embarrassed, but she was a cheerful person and talked a lot, so she quickly said professionally: "I have a calling card, let's go, I'll take you to call." ”

Chen Shi followed her, and the two found a public phone booth, and then Zheng Tong inserted the card into it and said, "You call it yourself." ”

Chen Shi dialed the phone, and the person who answered the phone was not his sister when he heard it, he said politely: "Hello, I am Chen Jing's younger brother Chen Shi, please let him answer the phone." ”

Then Chen Shi heard his sister's voice: "Stone, why are you calling me?"

Chen Shidao: "Sister, you come out quickly, I will be in your school." ”

"What?" Chen Jing couldn't believe her ears, she thought she had heard it wrong, and only after confirming it again did she know that what Chen Shi said was true, so she quickly changed into sportswear and hurriedly came out.

As soon as they met, Chen Jing asked him: "What are you doing here? How did you come here?"

Chen Shi said that there is some business matter, so I will come by the way. When Zheng Tong, who was on the side, heard this, he immediately interjected unhappily: "What else haven't you told me? Didn't you say that you came to see your sister?"

It was only at this time that Chen Jing noticed Zheng Tong. It's not that I haven't seen it before, but I always thought that she was waiting for someone else, and didn't think of her and Chen Shi together, at this time, the person in front of her gave her an amazing feeling, and every woman couldn't help but be jealous when she saw her figure.

Chen Jing asked, "Who is this?"

Before Chen Shi could speak, Zheng Tong introduced himself: "Hello, I am the daughter of Chen Shi's former landlord, my name is Zheng Tong, this time we came together, I am also from Mingzu University, I am a sophomore." ”

When Chen Jing heard this, she quickly chatted with Zheng Tong, and instantly forgot about her younger brother, she could see that this Zheng Tong and her younger brother had an unusual relationship, so she immediately asked a lot of Zheng Tong about Zheng Tong as Chen Shi's family, as if interrogating a prisoner.

But what he didn't expect was that Zheng Tong and his sister actually chatted very happily, and the two of them talked with each other, and they treated Chen Shi as a passerby, and it took a long time to mention him.

Chen Shi was sad, and after the two women finished talking, he said, "Sister, I'm hungry, let's find a place to eat!"

"I'll take you to the cafeteria. Sister Chen Jing said.

But Zheng Tong retorted: "What is delicious in the cafeteria, I will take your sister and brother to a restaurant to ensure that you are satisfied." ”

Chen Shi didn't care, and her sister Chen Jing couldn't object, so the three of them went on the road. The two women walked in front, and Chen Shi was left behind again, becoming the background of the tragedy, and he was really a forgotten person.

The place to eat is not far away, the location of the restaurant is outside the school, the decoration is very exquisite, there is a quiet and elegant feeling, it is very suitable for couples to date, this should be specially prepared for students, the seat is also a small table for two people, there are cold drinks and snacks in the store, there are Western-style pastries, there are pizza rice noodles, etc., Chen Shi has never eaten this style of food, no matter in his previous life or present life, he has never been to this kind of place, so he just came in a little restrictive.

However, Zheng Tong, who is generous, seems to be very familiar with this, and also helps Chen Shi's sisters and brothers when ordering, asking about their tastes, asking their preferences, asking their taboos, etc., in every detail. Chen Jing usually eats at school and has never been to a restaurant outside, so she is not familiar with it, and Zheng Tong is completely in charge.

After ordering, Chen Shi asked Zheng Tong: "You are so familiar with this place, do you come often?"

"Of course. Zheng Tong replied happily.

Chen Shi took the opportunity to ask: "It seems that most of the people here are dating couples, are you dating your little lover?"

When Zheng Tong heard this, his face turned red instantly, but his mouth was unforgiving: "Nonsense, who said I came to eat? I came alone, came here to work as a temporary worker, I don't have a boyfriend yet, don't spread rumors everywhere." ”

If you don't have a boyfriend, is this a hint? Chen Shi felt a little suspenseful. Chen Jing on the side was like a wooden man, she didn't seem to hear anything, pretending to look east and west, if her younger brother could chase this woman down, she would promise a hundred times, of course, it would not spoil the atmosphere of their talking.

However, there was nothing between Chen Shi and Zheng Tong, so the embarrassing words would not continue, Zheng Tong was a lively person, and immediately asked Chen Jing: "You are a freshman, are you used to it when you first come to Xi?"

The two women chatted again, and the words between the women seemed to be inexhaustible, Chen Shi had to be secretly depressed, and he originally came to see his sister, but a nosy person came, which made him feel uncomfortable. In their chat, Chen Shi thought about it again, this time it seemed that he had come too hastily.

How to make drinking water? What kind of qualifications do you need? He didn't know anything about it, and when an idea came out, he hurriedly ran out, lacking a plan, lacking a unified arrangement, what kind of big thing could he accomplish in this way?

And the site to start a factory, this is also a very laborious thing, the best way is to acquire a small water plant, he believes, such manufacturers are many, and want to sell will not be too little, if you can buy an early water plant, then on this basis the transformation and upgrading is not much easier, and the problem of talent does not have to work.

Thinking of this, Chen Shi had to secretly scold himself for being an idiot, but it was not too late to come to the provincial capital, and there were many water plants here, so if he wanted to find a water plant for sale, where should he start? Chen Shi fell into deep thought again.
