Chapter 22: Origin

The three people in the house heard that it was a scrap yard, and they each reacted.

Lu Xiaolan was a little surprised, and finally understood that when she asked him what he was doing just now, her expression was hesitant, and she was mostly embarrassed. Her aunt didn't react at all after hearing this, in the eyes of this kind of businessman, the city is deep, and you can't see any unexpected eyes.

On the contrary, the frivolous man next to him, who had an unhappy expression, said sarcastically: "What are you doing with a rag and a signboard, write a few big characters on cardboard and hang it yourself, isn't it over?"

Not to mention, although this is ugly, the method is really the most common trick used by most self-employed people who recycle waste. People who open scrap collection stations think that there is no need to make any good signs, generally at the door of their own homes, either cardboard or long wooden boards, write a few big words on the wall of waste recycling, the effect is almost the same.

Li Zhengyi didn't seem to hear the other party's sarcasm, and cocked his thumb at the young man and said: "This big brother Gaojian, your method is really good, or I won't get the signboard first, and consider your suggestion." ”

Li Zhengyi's words are a bit yin, obviously praising him, but actually commanding his army. In other people's stores, as soon as you open your mouth, you will disrupt the business of other people's door-to-door visits, and everyone will not want to see you in their hearts. What's more, standing next to him is the object of his passion, if he has a bad impression of not knowing what to do, the girl who is already difficult to chase will probably be sentenced to death directly.

The young man also reacted at this time, glanced at Aunt Lu Xiaolan awkwardly, and then stood beside Lu Xiaolan silently, occasionally glancing at Li Zhengyi, his eyes were not very friendly.

Aunt Lu Xiaolan didn't seem to hear it, she still smiled and asked Li Zhengyi about the specific requirements for the signboard, and after learning enough information, she told Li Zhengyi: "It will be fine within three days, you see if there is any problem, if you want to expedit, you can advance it by about a day, but the price is higher." ”

Li Zhengyi said that there was no problem for three days, asked the price clearly, and then went to the room to pay the money.

When paying the fee in the room, he asked Lu Xiaolan: "Who is this person outside?

"It's not. ”

"Thankfully not. ”

Lu Xiaolan paused, glanced at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

Li Zhengyi said casually: "This guy doesn't look like an atmospheric person, it's not suitable for you." ”

Lu Xiaolan smiled: "You seem to know very well, do you know what kind of person is suitable for me?"

"Roughly understood, don't look at me I couldn't remember your name just now, it's because my brain is excited, so it's stuck. Actually, I think with your character, you should find someone who is cheerful and broad-minded. ”

"I'm a student now, my main job is studying, it's too early to talk about that. Lu Xiaolan finished issuing the receipt, closed the pen cover, stood up and said generously.

Li Zhengyi said: "Okay, it's just a personal suggestion. But today my omen is not good, I feel like I am being affected by you again, looking at the eyes of this buddy, I'm afraid I am worried. ”

Lu Xiaolan handed him the receipt and asked rhetorically, "Are you afraid?"

"Of course I'm afraid. Li Zhengyi took the receipt and said as a matter of course, "I am now a good citizen." ”

Lu Xiaolan held back a smile and said: "As far as you are still a good citizen, when you first collected other people's protection money, you were soft-handed?

Seeing that Li Zhengyi didn't agree, Lu Xiaolan said again: "This person's name is Chen Xiangming, you don't have to worry about him." He has nothing to do with you, and he can't get you, and his family doesn't have much power. ”

"Chen Xiangming!" Li Zhengyi repeated thoughtfully, and then asked, "What does his family do?"

Lu Xiaolan said: "The boss of a smelter in the old industrial area. ”

Li Zheng was dumbfounded and said: "You fool me, this is still called no power." ”

Lu Xiaolan smiled again and said, "The smelters are about to close down and are insolvent." It is said that he has recently filed for bankruptcy. As soon as the factory fell, his father didn't know where he went. ”

Li Zhengyi felt a sense of déjà vu again, feeling that he had heard about it somewhere, but he couldn't remember anything. Thinking about it, he spoke a little absent-mindedly, and said casually: "You know quite a lot, thank you." ”

Lu Xiaolan looked at him meaningfully and said, "Don't guess, his father and my father are young, and it's normal to know a little." ”

The two went out of the room and stopped talking.

Before leaving, Aunt Lu Xiaolan said, "Housheng, leave a phone number." ”

Aunt Lu Xiaolan was sorting out the advertising paper in the outer hall, waiting for Lu Xiaolan to leave a phone. Looking at Lu Xiaolan's clear eyes, Li Zheng spread his hands and said, "My pockets are cleaner than my face, and I can't afford a mobile phone." ”

Lu Xiaolan said: "Then contact the address." ”

Li Zheng thought about it and left the contact address of the rented house.

Saying goodbye and leaving, Li Zheng felt something, and through the glass door, he clearly saw the young man's little white face that had become mean. He knew that he had just said a word, and he was afraid that he had offended a narrow-minded person who would be revenged.

After the most time-consuming signboard was booked, Li Zhengyi went to inquire about the price of scales, pole scales, electronic scales, etc. In the end, I shopped around and chose a mechanical scale and a two-pole scale in a store specializing in scales. He asked the boss to purchase an electronic scale, a small trailer and a flatbed pulley in the market, and asked the shop owner to find a guy to accurately calibrate the weight accuracy of the scale weight and the rod scale pressure support. After paying the bill, I found that the 3,000 yuan I brought with me was less than 600 yuan, and these miscellaneous expenses were not small.

In the next few days, Li Zhengyi mainly helped Li's father to deal with the decoration together, because the materials were in place quickly, the cousin contacted by Li's father called a group of people to level the floor outside the house first, and spent a day simply laying concrete. In winter, the concrete dries slowly, and the weather is freezing at night, so it is necessary to cover with straw to prevent freezing, and then uncover it the next day, so after the concrete is laid, it takes four or five days to start to build fences and simple greenhouses.

It is indeed simple to build fences and simple greenhouses, and the four people called by my cousin, plus Li Zhengyi's father and son, were built in one day. If the sun is a little bigger during the day, you should sprinkle a little water from time to time to prevent it from being too dry, otherwise this rough concrete is easy to desand.

Finally, the concrete is dry, and after the fence and simple greenhouse are built, the concrete floor is smeared with a layer of refined cement, and the whole project is completely completed after another day or two.

During this period, Li Zhengyi took the time to call a car to transport the signboard back, and instructed the temporary delivery helper to fix the big signboard at the intersection of the main road and the small road, and the small signboard on the outer wall of the rented house. The two signboards are very eye-catching in the eyes of passers-by, much more eye-catching than the handwritten cardboard or wood-board signboards that are commonly seen.

In less than ten days, the site of the acquisition station was completely new inside and out, and the materials needed to be purchased or sorted out had already been prepared with the joint efforts of the Li family.
