Unconsciously, Hu Youmin graduated from university, and his graduation thesis was "On the Role of Finance in Decision-making in Enterprises", which is also a question he has been thinking about for a long time. This is followed by the dissertation defense, which is basically a formality, and the questions asked by the teacher are very simple, and most of them can be passed. However, the graduation certificate and files will not be available until July, and Hu Youmin has decided to go back to develop, so he entrusted his cousin to get it and mail him back at that time.

Hu Youmin specially talked to Tian Yumei about his return, hoping that she could follow her to Xiangnan. Of course, Tian Yumei wanted to go with her lover, but when she told her parents, she was strongly opposed. Tian Yumei made trouble several times, and finally her mother forced her to die, and she couldn't make sense of her parents, she found Hu Youmin and wanted him to stay in Tanglin, looking at her sad lover, Hu Youmin's heart hurt like a knife.

But reason told him to dismantle him, even if he stayed, he could only buy a house and settle down in the city by working in the year of the monkey? There was no place to live, and people could marry his daughter to him? plus he had a little pitiful self-esteem in his heart, and he was afraid that others would laugh at him for living by clinging to women, even if he married Tian Yumei, it would let her marry to Xiangnan in a beautiful manner.

In the past few days, Tian Yumei's eyes have been red, and her face has lost its luster and looks haggard, Hu Youmin has to keep comforting her, asking her to wait for a few years, and when he goes back to develop, he will come to pick her up immediately, and the two will never be separated in the future!

Liu Hongyang also has a lot of complaints about him, he originally wanted to train him to be his important assistant, and he also tried his best to match his relationship with Tian Yumei, but now he wants to return to Xiangnan to develop, and his sister-in-law is sad. But the young man wanted to go on a rampage, and he couldn't say anything.

On the first night of his departure from Tanglin, Chen Guoliang and Liu Xinyuan came to give him food, and Chen Guoliang invited them to eat at a small restaurant near the factory. There was the sadness of parting on the wine table, more of a blessing, looking at the two good friends, Tian Yumei's figure appeared in his mind, and his mood fell. Hu Youmin, who pretended to be indifferent in front of Tian Yumei, had a desire to vent at this time, to release the suppressed pain.

He gulped down the wine, the hot wine flowing from his throat to his heart, as if it was about to burn his heart. Hu Youmin kept drinking while crying, which startled Chen Guoliang and Liu Xinyuan, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he had to let him get drunk, and then the two carried him back to the dormitory.

Afraid that Tian Yumei would cry, and even more afraid of seeing her sad, Hu Youmin didn't tell her when he left, and got on the train alone. In the sound of the whistle, the train slowly left Tanglin Station, no one saw him off, thinking of leaving this place that he had lived for four years, he had been familiar with and accustomed to, and went to another place to wander, he was just a passer-by of Tanglin, and a kind of sadness and a kind of parting sorrow came to his heart.

The train is very crowded, and this time Hu Youmin bought a seat ticket, but this kind of seat is a straight back, and it is not comfortable to sit for a long time, but it is much more comfortable than standing. Compared with when he came, Hu Youmin has lost the simplicity and timidity of the countrymen, has the comfort and self-confidence of the city people, and also has the wisdom and elegance of the scholars, and his pocket is not tight, his salary rose to 450 yuan at the beginning of last year, and in the past four years, in addition to the money sent to the family and daily expenses, he has also saved more than 8,000 yuan.

If you have money, you have the confidence to spend, buy a boxed lunch on the train, and even drink a bottle of beer. When the train stopped in Hebei, he went to the platform to buy a Texas grilled chicken, but he was still reluctant to eat it, and was going to take it home for his parents to try. Got off at Baisha Railway Station, heard the cordial local voice, Hu Youmin was more eager to go home, took the bus to Baisha West Station, and then took the bus to get on and off on the national highway, and walked a kilometer of simple highway to get home.

I bought a ticket at the West Railway Station, sat on the bus and waited for the bus to leave, and a book and newspaper seller came up, and saw that Hu Youmin was dressed better and looked like a foreigner, so he blackmailed him to buy a five-yuan magazine. Hu Youmin saw that this kind of magazine was only a penny a piece on the bookshelf, and knew that he had encountered blackmail, where was he afraid of this kind of gangster in his hometown, so he refused in a tough tone, and the man said angrily: "You wait." So he got out of the car and called his accomplices.

In less than a minute, two people came up, and it was the gangster who hit the head, he was followed by a yellow hair wearing sunglasses, taller than him, the gangster had a helper, and came to beat him violently, Hu Youmin grabbed the punch that came over, and kicked him in the lower abdomen, the gangster was so painful that he squatted on the ground and couldn't move, and the yellow hair behind him saw that he had encountered a hard stubble, and he didn't care about the gangster, turned around and ran, Hu Youmin shouted to the gangster: "Get out." ”

The thug clutched his stomach and climbed out of the car. No one in the car made a sound from beginning to end, as if nothing had happened, Hu Youmin knew the mentality of the Chinese people, more things are better than less things, and no one was nosy if they didn't bully themselves. Hu Youmin won't blame them, it's not that he has no choice but to do it, and he won't take it lightly.

When I got home, it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and when I saw Hu Youmin, I hugged him in my arms: "Youlingzi, you are really dripping back!" My sister, who was lighting the fire in the kitchen, also came out and called out to my brother while moving a chair for him. My younger sister is in her second year of high school at County No. 1 Middle School, and my younger brother is still in school and won't be able to return home until the end of June.

My father was not at home, so he went to the vegetable patch and came back when it was dark. The family sat down for dinner, and my mother stir-fried a lot of dishes as if she were entertaining a distinguished guest. The father poured the grain wine brewed by himself in the second tea jar, and the father and son had one tea jar of grain wine, and in the strong family affection, Hu Youmin felt drunk before he started drinking it.

After resting at home for a few days, Hu Youmin discussed with his family to open a furniture factory, but his parents didn't understand these and said to let him make his own decisions. At present, the funds are not enough, I want my parents to go out and borrow some money, and I ran for a few days to borrow 5,000 yuan, and my mother has a cousin who promised to borrow 5,000 yuan, but I want a monthly interest of one and a half cents, and my mother did not dare to make the decision, and asked him if he wanted to borrow this kind of money.

Unable to scrape together the money, Hu Youmin had to postpone the opening of a furniture factory, but it was not the same thing to be idle at home, so he wanted to take a look at the economically developed coastal areas, broaden his horizons, and look for some business opportunities. I have always heard that Shenzhen and Hong Kong are developing well, and it is known as the second Hong Kong. It's better to act than to act, told my parents my thoughts, and began to prepare for the trip to the south.

There is a direct long-distance bus to Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, with a ticket of 100 yuan, Hu Youmin carried a total of 13,000 yuan of agricultural bank cards, border certificates, and ID cards that he had saved and borrowed, and went straight to Shenzhen-Hong Kong City with simple luggage. After more than 10 hours, the passenger car arrived at the Shenzhen-Hong Kong border, and several armed police officers came up to check the border permit, and only after the inspection was completed did it be released.

The bus only arrived at the passenger station in Nanshan District, Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, and it was about ten o'clock in the morning when it arrived, Hu Youmin got off the bus and bought a map of Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, a newspaper, looking for a nearby industrial zone, and wanted to find a job to settle down first. First look at the recruitment advertisements in the newspapers, those who recruit accountants must have a local household registration or a local household registration, and there are many people recruited by shoe factories, garment factories, and electronics factories, but basically only female workers are needed. Sheet metal, welders, fitters, and lathe workers are less recruited, and they also require an operation grade certificate.

Hu Youmin had no choice but to put down the newspaper, picked up the map to read, and found that there was a Meilin Industrial Park nearby, so he took a bus to take a look. The industrial park is very large, and many factories have advertisements posted at the door, but they can't find a suitable job after shopping, which is a bit of a blow to Hu Youmin.

It was past one o'clock in the afternoon, his stomach was rumbling with hunger, and when he saw a self-service fast food restaurant, five yuan a piece, and the meals were all-you-can-eat, Hu Youmin decided to fill his stomach first and then look for a job. In June, when the city of Shenzhen and Hong Kong was like a stove, Hu Youmin spent five cents to buy a bottle of mineral water, drank it all in one go, and then went to the store to fill the bottle with tap water, and then wandered along the street.

In the evening, I couldn't find a job, so I had to find a hotel to live in, a room for eight people, ten yuan a bunk. Hu Youmin washed his face and went to bed, touched the bank card sewn in his pants, and fell asleep with extreme fatigue, regardless of the noise around him.

On the afternoon of the third day after arriving in Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, Hu Youmin finally found a job as a general worker in an advertising store, including food and lodging, and 500 yuan a month. General workers are actually handymen, who have to do everything, welding advertising racks, pasting advertising words, installing billboards, and doing whatever they encounter. There are no holidays, and I have to work overtime until more than ten o'clock in the evening every day, and when my movements are a little slower, the boss will keep muttering in Cantonese, and Hu Youmin can't understand it, so let him talk.

After working for more than ten days, when Hu Youmin cut the advertising words one night, I don't know if he was too tired or distracted, he cut the words wrongly, the boss's face turned green, and he kept shouting: "Lei Jiju." Hu Youmin guessed that this was a curse, threw the scissors, glared at the boss fiercely, and went to sleep. Early the next morning, the boss threw him a hundred yuan, and he didn't want him to do it, Hu Youmin was annoyed, and patted his ass and left: Ye won't wait.

Under the scorching sun, Hu Youmin ran around the streets and alleys of Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, bought two steamed buns to eat when he was hungry, looked for tap water to drink on the roadside when he was thirsty, and sometimes couldn't find a place to sleep at night, so he slept under the bridge cave. There are many people looking for jobs, some go to the talent market, and more people like him are looking for them all over the street, and once, he also met a girl who was seventeen or eighteen years old and also slept under the bridge. But she was very guarded, and found a place to sleep away from him, and left early the next morning.

Day by day, once when Hu Youmin was exhausted, he saw a recruitment advertisement for a salesman posted in front of a magnificent building, and he also wanted to hone his ability in this area, so he took the elevator to the thirteenth floor according to the address on the advertisement, and knocked on the door of 1303. A sleepy-eyed girl opened the door, listened to him, and led him into a room.

He was greeted by a man in his forties, with a big back comb, a tie, a thick gold chain around his neck, and a large ring on his hand, looking like a boss. As soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't have the boss's style, and introduced the work content of the salesman and the company's requirements like a salesman.

It is mainly to sell products such as air freshener, dish soap, socks, etc., and after buying products from the company, they go outside to sell, and the difference in price belongs to them, and the company only cares about where they live, and does not care about the rest. Seeing his hesitation, the middle-aged man explained that you have taken the product and what should you do if you don't come back? He also said that the difference between the price of the product given by the company and the market price is more than 30 percent, and it is very easy to earn several thousand yuan a month.

Thinking that ninety-eight yuan was not too much, and that there were still a bunch of products, even if they couldn't be sold, they wouldn't lose anything, so I bought a copy, filled out an employee registration form, and went out to sell the products. After running for two days, none of them were sold, and once I went to a small supermarket to buy a bottle of water to drink, and saw that the price of air freshener on the shelves was cheaper than the price given to him by the company, so I knew that I had been deceived.
