On the way home from the shop, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother left the shop, and there were many people who came to inquire, whether it was out of concern or just like gossip, in short, it was quite annoying.

Mother Jiang rushed that day, but she didn't have time to stop Aunt Zhang's mouth after all.

In fact, even if it was too late at the time, it was useless, once a person like Aunt Zhang knew a piece of news, even if she plugged her mouth, she would hum it out of her nostrils.

Aunt Zhang, who runs a small shop and has a TV and a telephone at home, has always been an important source of all news, scandals, national events and gossip in this area.

What's more troublesome than these is that it seems that the matter of Jiang's mother's nephew and son-in-law running a factory has suddenly been shelved, and the news currently being passed on among relatives seems to be to blame the Jiang family for suddenly giving up the shareholding.

Either way, the year has to pass first.

Jiang Che walked all the way, while enjoying the fireworks in the city, it was only a year or two, and soon, Shenghai would begin to ban fireworks.

Then covered in neon.

It was about ten o'clock when he walked back, passing by the entrance of the Palace Hotel, Chu Lianyi, who was dressed in a black windbreaker, happened to put a bag of garbage into the trash can, and then turned around.

"Xiao Che? I really didn't go back for the New Year? Seeing that you haven't come for the past two days, I thought you went back. Chu Lianyi saw Jiang Che walking alone on the street, and asked with some surprise.

"Well, I'm really going to earn money for food and housing for the New Year. Jiang Che smiled and looked at the salon hall where the lights were still on, "What, is anyone still here today?"

"There were quite a few, but they were all after dinner, and before nine o'clock, they all went home again. Chinese New Year's Eve, no, the workers have also gone back, I just finished cleaning. ”

"Sister Chu has worked hard, by the way, Happy New Year. ”

"Happy New Year. ”

Two people staggered by.

Jiang Che probably walked a dozen steps.

"Xiao Che. Chu Lianyi's voice came from behind.

Jiang Che turned around.

"I got a pot, do you want to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together?" Chu Lianyi said.

"It's all one person anyway...... It's all to blame for the pitiful. She said again, smiling.

Suddenly, there was a feeling that he was also a fallen person at the end of the world, although in fact, Jiang Che would soon be a small person, and Chu Lianyi's wealth could not be guessed.

A meeting on the edge of the craziest storm of wealth in the early 90s of the 20th century, a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner between strangers.

It seems to be not bad.

……

……

The small hot pot was boiling on the table, and Jiang Che added vegetables and meatballs to it.

Chu Lianyi took a bottle of Moutai out, red wine has not become popular in these years, she asked, "Is one bottle enough?"

Jiang Che smiled bitterly and said, "I can choke on a white cup." ”

Chu Lianyi said: "Then you can have a drink, and mine will be left." ”

"Happy New Year. ”

"Wishing you prosperity. ”

The two men touched their glasses for the first time.

"Have you earned any money for the New Year, where do you live?" began as just the most ordinary greetings.

"Earned, stay in the back of the urban village hotel. Jiang Che has nothing to hide, let alone the idea of slapping a swollen face and becoming fat, there are some things, needless to say, others can see through it at a glance.

"How did you earn it?"

"Go to the surrounding counties to sell New Year's paintings, wall calendars, and then go to Sheng Hai to dry mushrooms. ”

Chu Lianyi looked up at Jiang Che's eyes for a while, smiled, took his bowl, and put vegetables in it. It feels like saying, hard work, or maybe you deserve it.

"How old are you after the New Year?" she asked.

"Nineteen years old. Jiang Che said.

“…… I'm thirty-three," Chu Lianyi said with a wry smile, "So many people have been playing with warrants recently, and you are the most different one among them." ”

"Is it because of your young age, or because you are poor?" Jiang Che asked with a smile.

"Let's have it", Chu Lianyi put the bowl back in front of Jiang Che and said with a smile, "The most important thing is that you are not like a speculator, but you are more stable than a seasoned speculator, my sister has seen so many people, and there are few who can't understand it, you are one." ”

"Actually, there's nothing I can't understand", Jiang Che said briefly, confessing that he cheated his family's money to buy a warrant, and then said, "So I don't dare to go home until I make money." ”

Why do you dare to cheat your family's money to gamble on the warrant? Chu Lianyi didn't ask, she smiled and said, "But you've already earned it, right?"

"It's not enough. ”

Jiang Che raised his glass.

He only took a sip, but Chu Lianyi took a drink.

Then she put down her cup, looked at the nineteen-year-old boy in front of her with clear eyebrows and clear eyes, and said with a wry smile: "It's really convincing." ”

There are many things that are inconvenient to ask between speculators to a certain extent, such as net worth, intentions, and the basis for buying and selling behaviors......

There is also the most sensitive at the moment, the number of warrants on the body.

But there are some things on Jiang Che that are actually easy to judge for Chu Lianyi and others:

For example, he is not a speculator, his family background is not good, he is gambling on his net worth, he is nervous, and he is very calm...... This proves that his expectations are high and he is confident.

To do this, the young man will go to earn his hard-earned money in order to stay in Shenghai...... Even if in fact, he only needs one thought, and he can easily go home with tens of thousands of yuan for the New Year.

It's not easy to do.

It is human nature to be greedy for scenery and small profits, not to mention that this time the profits are definitely not small.

It is also common to hover between greed and fear.

Chu Lianyi has seen too many people seeking stability these days, selling the subscription warrants, taking the money and leaving, from four or five thousand to fifteen thousand, some of them regretted coming back to make trouble with the buyer, and some people posted money from the seller to the buyer, and then sold again, back and forth, back and forth.

Now, Chu Lianyi can already judge that Jiang Che is likely to have more than one set of warrants judged by others.

……

……

The more I drank, the more unscrupulous the topic became.

"Why don't you ask me, why do you celebrate the New Year alone?" Chu Lianyi was already a little drunk, his eyes were particularly shining, and he looked at people directly.

Jiang Che smiled and didn't speak.

"You guessed that, didn't you? It's irritatingly smart. Or because he was drunk, his age and experience became traceless, and his speech became casual, Chu Lianyi poured another cup and drank it, saying: "He went home for the New Year, and I don't have a home...... Don't laugh at me. ”

"No, Sister Chu has worked hard. ”

"Well, it's hard, everyone thinks I'm doing well, what did you guess? Otherwise, you guess again, guess a lot, and I'll tell you a big piece of news that I've heard. ”

It's a game, right?,If you really want to talk about secret news.,Who has more than me?

Jiang Che thought for a while and said: "I said that Sister Chu is hard, because when a person feels all-encompassing every day, like a spring breeze, he often works very hard. ”

Chu Lianyi's eyes lit up.

"There must be some guests, Sister Chu is actually too lazy to pay attention to him, and there are some people, Sister Chu will think in her heart, if she can beat him, how happy she is......"

Chu Lianyi laughed out loud, and said while laughing:

"It's all right, it's all right, it's amazing, Xiao Che. That's what I think every day...... But no, right?"

"Because the distance between the shabby and the scenery is not far at all, even if you are ignorant, you can't stop luck. Times began to change, and it became possible to be unreasonable and change a person's fate in an instant...... From now on, there will be many people who will turn into dragons when they encounter a storm. ”

"Some of these things he taught me, and some of them I have only seen through for so many years...... But you're only nineteen. Sister doesn't know how to praise you. A gambler, a genius, a genius gambler? a genius calm and down-to-earth gambler?"

Chu Lianyi held the wine glass, looked at it, and smiled.

But the truth should be reversed, it is Jiang Che who should admire her observation and judgment of the times.

Chu Lianyi opened another bottle of Moutai, and Jiang Che also added a small half cup.

She didn't tell the secret and asked Jiang Che, "Do you know how to dance?"

"It's rusty. ”

"It doesn't matter. ”

She turned out to be an old-fashioned record player, and with the fall of the stylus, Zhou Xuan's unique singing voice sounded, and the atmosphere of Lao Shenghai instantly diffused......

Chu Lianyi took off his windbreaker, tall and curved, this is a mature stunner.

The moment Jiang Che put his right hand on her waist, he felt the undulating arc between his waist and hips, and unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The sound of laryngeal rolling is particularly clear in the song's soft interlude.

Chu Lianyi smiled and said, "Relax......"

In the end, I don't know how many tunes I danced, and I don't know how long, until Jiang Che's dance steps became very proficient, and the two of them stopped.

For a certain period of time, Chu Lianyi was very close, and his chin was almost on Jiang Che's shoulder......

A few times Jiang Che stepped on her feet, and her palm pressed on Jiang Che's chest to refuse, saying that it hurt and beating people, like a girl......

The atmosphere is ambiguous.

It's impulsive.

Especially when the arc between her waist and hips rose and fell with the dance steps, when her chest felt the pressure of her palm and the sliding of her fingertips......

Perhaps it can be guessed that on this somewhat bleak and somewhat surprising Chinese New Year's Eve, the lonely man and widow, coupled with the effect of alcohol, this lonely but very attractive woman probably does not mind what happens to the beautiful boy in front of her.

Jiang Che said: "I should go back, Sister Chu should rest early." ”

The way he fled made Chu Lianyi look at it and laughed, she said: "Didn't you think there was an opportunity to take advantage of it just now? Try it, maybe you can stay." ”

"Actually, I secretly thought about it. Jiang Che said honestly.

"Then why did you run because of your girlfriend?"

"Girlfriend...... Just broke up some time ago. ”

"Huh, why separate?"

"She stayed in school, I didn't. ”

“…… I think she'll regret it. ”

She said she wouldn't. ”

"Yes, because very few women meet a boy like you at a young age...... Okay", Chu Lianyi paused and said, "It seems that I am not attractive enough." ”

"No, Sister Chu is very charming. ”

"So, don't you dare?"

"Well, sort of, I thought about it for a moment, I'm not qualified enough to sleep with you. ”

He was half-drunk and spoke very directly.

Chu Lianyi laughed so much that he couldn't straighten his waist, and his style was infinite.

"Ruthless, steady, rational, sober, self-control, you all have", Chu Lianyi said after laughing, "plus the part I can't figure out, I believe that after this storm, you will turn into a dragon." ”

A lot of the rest is something that doesn't need to be said, when both people are smart people.

For example, if this matter is impulsive and provoked, it will not be a one-time event, and it will not be so easy to break ...... But in fact, neither of them can bear the possible consequences of it.

For another example, the next time we meet, please be natural and normal, Chu Lianyi knows the same, and she doesn't need to remind or advise.

"For the time being, you can't sell it. The great comrade was walking south, and it seemed that he was going to walk in a circle, and some of the things he said were analyzed...... The reform situation will be good, so maybe a lot of things will change, good changes. I can't even say when new documents will come out on the securities side......"

When Jiang Che went out, Chu Lianyi said behind him.

For someone else, maybe this is really a big news that hasn't been noticed yet, but for Jiang Che, it can at least give him more confidence and judgment basis.

Southern Talk—So it was, some connections were established, and Jiang Che was transparent.

"Thank you, Sister Chu. He said.

Of course, for Jiang Che, this is still more of a fun night, not going to bed, more interesting than going to bed, and it is more worth savoring.
