Chapter 16: White Santana
Since the signing of the contract, Tang Tianchen has been like clockwork, repeating the fixed work of two points and one line every day, pulling coal from the mine to loading the ship at Baiyang Ferry, and then pulling potatoes back to Changfeng Town to unload. Repeat the cycle.
Tang Tianchen and Wang Qiping's potato business went even more smoothly than they expected, and with the help of Zhou Lao Wu, a friend of Wang Qiping's father, they easily found workers to help unload and load the trucks. Moreover, there is a large gap in the local potato sales in Changfeng Town, and the distribution of goods is not a problem at all, almost in short supply.
Wang Qiping relied on the right time and place, and easily signed supply contracts with a number of local potato sellers. His father is very prestigious in the local area, not to mention that his uncle-in-law Li Chuanjiang has been the richest man in the county for more than ten years, and his reputation has long been thunderous. I don't know how many people want to get involved with his uncle-in-law through him.
Although Tang Tianchen is a little tired every day, his life is very fulfilling. On this day, when he was directing the workers to unload potatoes, he suddenly saw Wang Qiping sitting on his uncle's white Santana.
Tang Tianchen asked with some surprise:
"Why did you come here today? Didn't you just make an appointment with a potato seller at a few local farmers' markets? ”
Wang Qiping glanced at him angrily, wiped the sweat on his forehead and complained:
"My eldest young master, it's not for you! Do you know what day it is? The teachers at the school and your family are looking for you everywhere, and the phone calls have come to my house. ”
"Really? What's the matter? …… Oh, I remembered......"
"Holy! You can still remember! It's not easy. Make money and make crazy money! Today is the day of the college entrance examination results, and others went to school early in the morning. It's almost noon, and your old man is still leisurely. The school teacher said, you have to show up today anyway! ”
"Really? Why do I have to show up? ”
"How do I know this, okay, stop talking nonsense! Hurry up! Now I can't catch up with the bus. You can drive my uncle's car! ”
"Okay, then I'm leaving!"
Tang Tianchen was about to get into the car, but was suddenly stopped by Wang Qiping and said:
"Big brother, are you going like this?"
Tang Tianchen looked at his dress, it was really inappropriate! I've been running in the mine for the past few days, and I'm dirty, and my clothes can't see the original color anymore! The shoes were also full of mud dots.
Looks like I'm going to have to take a shower and change into clean clothes anyway. Back in the accommodation room, Tang Tianchen washed his hair, took a shower, but was worried.
I've been so busy these days. My clothes are basically dirty, and I haven't had time to wash them. There is no one that can be worn out to meet people!
At this time, Wang Qiping walked in and put a set of clothes and pants and shoes in front of his bed. He smiled and said:
"I knew you had to ask me for help, and I had it ready for you. Take it and wear it! ”
"Hehe, thanks! …… I'll go! Isn't this the Armani suit of three or four thousand? You're so willing! ”
"You're too embarrassed to mention it, and you don't want to see where I've been running these days? It's either a stinky vegetable market or a dusty mine. If I wore that dress, wouldn't I look like a two-in-one? ”
Wang Qiping rolled his eyes and continued:
"Since I bought this dress, I wore it once with you when I went to Aries County, and I have never had a chance to wear it at home. It is estimated that you will not be able to remember it until you have mold. If you like it, wear it! You're welcome! Why don't I feel good wearing this...... Alright, don't rub it off, you hurry up! ”
Tang Tianchen didn't have time to be hypocritical, so he changed into a white shirt, trousers, leather shoes, and then put on the dark gray Armani suit.
I have to wake up every day by my own handsomeness, and I can't wait to kowtow to someone who looks in the mirror!
Tang Tianchen didn't expect that he would have such an absurd idea one day. But this is no narcissism!
My father's appearance was at the peak when he was young, it was really against the sky! It's a bit like Wu Zun with big eyes. Don't lose to those first-class stars in Europe, America and South Korea at all!
Remember the movie "Ace Agent. There is a classic line in "Secret Service Academy": a suit is the armor of the modern gentleman.
A well-behaved suit really makes a man look as glamorous, as in the case of this dark grey Armani suit.
The versatile grey makes you have to worry about styling, while the gun lapels with double-breasted British tailoring make it easy to see that you're in good taste, revealing your respect for tradition and disdain for fashion.
Due to the hot weather, Tang Tianchen unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, the slightly bulging muscle lines on his chest were faintly visible, and his healthy light bronzed skin was like a layer of bees. With his handsome and excessively ascetic face, gentlemanly and elegant, elegant and ...... Wild.
Wang Qiping couldn't take his eyes off him when he came out after changing his clothes, and he exaggerated and shouted:
"Let's go! Go away! You have hurt me deeply. This garment is exactly what it was made for you. Wearing me and wearing you are two completely different feelings. I wear it like I stolen it, and when you put it on, you become a prince and nobleman who walked out of a fairy tale. ”
Tang Tianchen ignored him and asked with some curiosity:
"What's your situation? Why don't you go today? ”
"Young Master, I think everyone is like you! Of course, if I do well in the exam, I have to go, but the sum of my seven subjects this time is less than 200 points, what am I going to do? Shameful? My dad wanted to pay me to go to a junior college, but I wasn't interested. ”
Wang Qiping circled around Tang Tianchen again, and couldn't help but boast:
"Handsome! It's so handsome! If I were a woman, I'm afraid I couldn't help but pounce! Alas, this God is too unfair, a collection of thousands of favors! ”
Bah! You are illiterate, and it is Yang Guifei who is loved by thousands of people!
Tang Tianchen is already immune to his comic performance, this Wang Qiping seems to have really bad grades, if he has no intention of going to college, it doesn't matter if he looks at his grades or not. I didn't force myself to go to school together, and I drove to the school alone.
……
June 20th is the day of the college entrance examination list, most of the graduates of Wu Khan No. 4 Middle School came to school early, and those who did not come basically did not report their hopes, belonging to the type of people who have no hope of going to college.
The 46 classmates in the second class of the third year of high school basically came before half past nine, but Tang Tianchen had not yet appeared after twelve o'clock.
Liu Dejiang was very excited, in his opinion, this was completely a manifestation of Tang Changwen's weak heart, and when he announced the answer last time, he was still swollen and fat, bragging about it. How about now? It's all revealed! I must know that I did poorly in the exam, and I don't have the face to see anyone. That's why I didn't dare to come
He had now developed a feeling of contempt, believing that Tang Changwen was not worthy of being his opponent at all. Just like him! Do you dare to rob Zhao Jing with yourself?
In addition, he did well in the test this time, with an estimated score of about 580. His father was delighted and awarded him a brand-new Lion bicycle for more than 100 yuan.
Liu Dejiang has never heard of anyone who has his own bicycle! Even the parents of many classmates can't afford it! Right now, he was surrounded by a crowd of people looking at his new car......
"Wow, you're so rich! I envy you! I want one too, my dad won't buy me ......"
"The new car is so beautiful! I love it! Can you lend me two laps? ”
"You did so well in the exam, and your father should be happy......"
However, although the envious eyes of these classmates made Liu Dejiang very useful, the fly in the ointment was that Zhao Jing, who he was most concerned about, stood far away without saying a word, although she was pulled by her classmates to watch the excitement, she was bored in a daze.
Liu Dejiang had no choice but to take the initiative to speak with anticipation:
"Zhao Jing, what do you think of my new car? Would you like to take you for a ride? ”
Zhao Jing reluctantly glanced back and said directly, "No." ”
Sure enough, Liu Dejiang was a little frustrated, but this was what he expected. Liu Dejiang suddenly felt that his beautiful new car had lost its luster, and it happened that a classmate who had a good relationship wanted to try the car, so he let him ride away.
Made, where is this Tang Changwen better than me? Zhao Jing seemed to have only him in her eyes. Hehe, this time he failed the test or he appeared.
I know your mother's personality all too well. No matter how rare you are, it's as useless as if you can't get into college. Wait and see, it's strange that your mom doesn't take you apart! After thinking about it, Liu Dejiang deliberately said in a loud voice:
"Someone in our class doesn't seem to be here yet?"
Next to him, his younger brother Mao Jun, someone immediately cooperated and said:
"Yes, it's almost there, why hasn't Tang Changwen come yet?"
"If you want me to say, he must have failed the test this time! Hide from us, don't dare to see people! ”
"It's just that, I think it's too, it's ...... usual"
Zhao Jing glanced at them coldly, turned her head and walked towards the toilet. But the drums began to play in my heart:
This has no conscience, this can't really be a bad test, right? Did you coax me last time? No, no, I must have thought too much...... He must have been delayed......
Suddenly, Director Huang's voice came from the school radio:
"Pay attention, everyone hurry up to the playground according to the formation we said before, the etiquette team hurriedly enters, and Minister Zhao's car from the Provincial Education Commission will arrive soon."
Zhao Jing had no choice but to give up her plan to go to the toilet and walk towards the playground with everyone. The class leaders are organizing the students of their classes to line up. However, because of the imminent graduation, everyone was obviously more casual and began to talk about it.
"Well, what's going on? In previous years, didn't you post a list and leave after reading it! How to do this this year, we have to meet the leadership of the Provincial Education Commission. ”
"That's right, we're all going to get out,, this leader is still a fart! Why did you go earlier? It's a waste of everyone's time."
"That's it! I knew I wouldn't be here today, and I didn't release the list after waiting for so long, so I had to wait until the welcome ceremony was over,! ”
"It seems that the official who came this time is not small! Such a big battle, the principal and director greeted it together, the ...... of the trombone drum"
……
Shen Ying asked the students of Class 32:
"Is Tang Changwen here? Has anyone seen him? ”
Everyone shook their heads, and Shen Ying was obviously a little flustered.
Then Director Huang's angry voice came from the radio:
"Quiet, Minister Zhao This is the first time to visit our school, this is the highest honor since the establishment of this school, please actively perform and leave a good impression on the provincial leaders. When I hear the end of the band's first trombone, let's do it again: welcome the leaders of the Provincial Education Commission to come and guide the work! Do you understand everything? ”
"Understood~" the student replied weakly.
Director Huang was obviously very dissatisfied, and was about to say something when suddenly the teacher standing at the school gate waved to him:
The white Santana of the leader is in!
Director Huang had no choice but to give up and give instructions to the guard of honor: "Play music!" One, two, three, up! ”
"Tut, doo, toot~" The melodious trombone sounded......
