Chapter Twenty-Three: Sitting Friends

Huang He admires the trendsetters of this era, it is the existence of these waves that has made China's economy complete a leap in just a dozen years, and it is also their personal experience that provides the world with very valuable practical experience.

Huang He doesn't feel that he is a trendsetter, even if he has insights beyond the foresight of decades in this era, the only thing he can do is respect.

Huang He felt that he should actually have a little restlessness because of the reason.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to run towards Guangzhou with a few hundred yuan in his head, without a plan or purpose, and now he can't help but admire his courage.

As the train approached the station, it was time to check in.

The announcement in the waiting hall immediately sounded the sound of a reminder to go to the entrance to check in the ticket.

Soon, more than 10 people gathered at the ticket gate, although there were not many people, they did not have the habit of queuing for half a minute, carrying bags and carrying bed rolls, swarming forward, for fear that they would not be able to get on the train.

Huang He smiled, also picked up his luggage and walked towards the ticket gate with Shen Qiuyun.

"Hey, little brother, can you help me?"

He hadn't taken a few steps when a middle-aged man's voice came from behind.

Huang He looked back and saw that it was a middle-aged man in a tunic suit.

I saw that he had a partial hairstyle on his slightly fat head, a pair of glasses in front of him, and a fountain pen hanging from the pocket of his jacket on his chest, which seemed to have an elegant taste, giving Huang He a rather familiar feeling.

But just such a Sven man has a large bag in his hand, but he carries three pockets, which not only contain bedding, daily necessities and the like, but also a portable briefcase at the foot next to him.

Because his hand was already full of things, but the handbag was not easy to pick up, his request for help was obviously hoping that Huang He could help him pick up the briefcase and hang it on his wrist.

Because they were two people, they didn't have much luggage with them, and Huang He and Shen Qiuyun were also considered to be light and simple. For the pleasure of helping others, he is still willing.

At least in this day and age, there are not so many old men and old ladies who can't afford it.

What's more, they are all from L County, and they are on the same train, which can be regarded as fate.

Huang He walked over and smiled, motioned to the middle-aged man to put a pocket in his hand on the ground and said, "Why don't I help you carry a bag of things to the platform?"

"Then thank you little brother!" The middle-aged man didn't refuse, and didn't seem to be worried that Huang He would cheat his luggage away, so he directly put down a pocket and smiled, then picked up the briefcase on the ground and walked all the way with Huang He.

In the conversation along the way, Huang He finally understood why this uncle in a tunic gave him a familiar feeling.

At the beginning of the year, he had not resigned at that time, and when the groundbreaking ceremony was held in the Huangshan Contracting County Blanket Factory, he also spoke on behalf of the county government to the blanket factory.....

I really didn't expect a dignified deputy director to go to the sea to do business!

However, Huang He also understands that there is a saying in these years, it is better to sell tea and eggs than to make missiles, and everything is forced!

With the reform and opening up and the change of policies, the original planned economy has become a free economy.

Just after the great man's first southern tour, countless private enterprises, private businesses, and self-employed people sprung up all over the country like mushrooms after a rain, and they first earned the first pot of gold in the dividends of the free economy.

However, the salaries of public servants and personnel of state-owned enterprises are pitifully small for various reasons, and they have become the tail of the crane from the original big brother.

As Ma Yuanshan said, parents have to provide for them, their children have to go to school, they have to dress properly when they go out, and they have to smoke cigarettes from time to time..... Relying on a salary of about 200 yuan, I can't bear it.

After walking far, almost less than 300 meters, the three of them had already followed the crowd in front of them to the waiting platform, and then each looked for their respective carriage numbers according to the train tickets.

Huang He and Shen Qiuyun's tickets were purchased together, and they happened to be seated together, what they didn't expect was that Ma Yuanshan was actually in the same carriage as them, and then looking at the adjacent numbers, it was very likely that the three of them would be seated opposite.

Soon, the train arrives, stops, checks, and passengers board the train in turn.

After getting on the bus, Huang He found the seats accurately in the car, 10-132, 133, which happened to be three rows of seats by the window, but there was already a very fashionable woman sitting on one of the seats.

The woman should not be very old, at best about twenty-three or four, and she was looking out the window at this time, and she didn't turn back until Huang He and the two approached.

"Sorry to interrupt!" Huang He threw a good-natured smile at the woman, picked up his and Shen Qiuyun's bags and put them on the luggage rack above his head before signaling Shen Qiuyun to sit next to the woman, while he himself sat on the inside of the carriage.

In this era, the train is not as safe as in the later generations, thieves and petty touches are common, even if it is a robbery, it is normal, as a man, Huang He still thinks that it is better to protect Shen Qiuyun in the middle.

On the opposite side of the seat is also a row of three-seater seats, in addition to Ma Yuanshan, who just got on the bus, there is also a man with glasses in his thirties, don't look at Si Swenwen's four eyes are about to glow green, sweeping Shen Qiuyun from time to time, and looking at the fashionable woman by the window from time to time, he almost didn't leave saliva.

The other is an old man in his sixties who is also wearing a tunic suit, unlike Ma Yuanshan, this old man's tunic is obviously some years old, and it is still the same "card" fabric as before, and it has been washed a little white, and you can know that it is an old object at a glance.

In addition to the old tunic that makes people shine, the most striking thing is the old man's hands like old bark, very wide and rough, but holding a new cowhide handbag, giving people a nondescript feeling.

After the three of them sat down, the train gradually started after a while, and started with the long-lost "clang" sound.

To be honest, Huang He is not very satisfied with this old-fashioned green leather carriage, especially the old-fashioned seats under the fart, although it is very avant-garde in this era, in fact, it is really hard to make the fart, think about the two days and three nights from Suizhou to Guangzhou..... Huang He's head is big.

But it can't be helped, who is called a hard seat?

Because it's already early in the morning, and I'm really tired all night, even if it's a hard seater, I can actually sleep.

In this way, Huang He, who swayed with the train and nodded with the train, as if he was in a cradle, fell asleep.

This sleep.... It's just a couple of hours.

"Miss, it's right for you to go to Guangzhou! Let me tell you, Guangzhou is an international metropolis, and the food, use, and housing are several grades higher than those in our mainland. Let's take the TV as an example, there are not many people in our Shuzhong Province who can afford to buy it, but in Guangzhou, you can walk on the street casually, and there are TVs in those shops. And ah, there are a lot of foreigners, what a day stupid, Singapore, England, France.... They all have high noses and blue eyes, and they don't need to dye their natural blonde hair, and they wear them to be called a grand ....."

In a daze, Huang He heard a large string of half-Shu, half-Mandarin, mixed with a bit of Cantonese, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the man with glasses opposite was talking to Shen Qiuyun.

"So, this person, I just have to go out and see the outside world, and only after seeing more will I know how big the gap between us and the outside is. The man with glasses became more and more excited, looking at Shen Qiuyun, who was full of fascination like a curious baby, and said: "I don't know if Miss Shen is going to Guangzhou for business or business this time?"

"No... I'm just going to follow my nephew to Guangzhou to find someone, so I don't need you to bother!"

Shen Qiuyun hurriedly excused herself, although she was simple, she was not stupid, although the Guangzhou in the mouth of the glasses man was magical, she was already impatient with the obscene appearance of the glasses man.

If it weren't for the fact that she would have to spend a lot of time together on the train, she probably wouldn't have bothered to take care of the glasses man at this time.

Shen Qiuyun didn't continue the topic just now, but Ma Yuanshan was aroused by the glasses man's words.

The main purpose of his trip to Guangzhou this time is to find business opportunities, or first-hand wholesalers, if there is a familiar Guangzhou Menqing, it is bound to be able to take a lot of detours, and immediately said: "Haha, I really didn't expect it, my brother is so familiar with Guangzhou, I don't know where the small commodity wholesale is?"
