After resting at Wei's house for a night, early the next morning, Lu Li asked Li Zhengrong for the car keys and went straight to the guest house in the garrison area in the city.

When they arrived at their destination, Zhu Guoying's little jeep happened to meet him in front of the entrance of the guest house in Volga, and the two of them jumped out of the car and hugged warmly, "Good boy, are you capable now?" I actually drove over by myself, and honestly, where did I steal it? ”

"What was stolen? You really can't speak, I'm so rich, I still need to steal? You think they're all like you? Hands and feet have not been clean since childhood? After saying that, the two of them laughed at the same time.

"Less nonsense, let's drive the car in first." Zhu Guoying opened the door of the Volga car and sat in by himself, "You drive my car, and I will also taste what the Volga tastes like." ”

Luli chuckled and drove into the guest house, parked the car in order, and the two leaned side by side on the engine cover of the Volga, smoking and talking, "Xiaoxiao, Brother Hua wrote to me a few days ago. Speaking of you, I heard that you went to Hong Kong? ”

"Yes, I came back last month, and I didn't stay in Tian (Tianjin) for a long time, so I went again. I'm getting a little bit of a start over there right now - maybe it's a little early, but I'm always moving in that direction. ”

"Both of us are older than you, and when I first learned about this, I wanted to say that I have eaten more salt than you have ever eaten rice, and then use this as a reason to persuade you. But then he wrote to me and said, "Although you are young, you have brains. ……”

"I understand what you mean, Brother Ying, a few of us have a good relationship, and there are some things that don't need to be said. I will never forget the kindness you and Brother Hua have done to me. ”

"Nonsense, you dare to forget!" Zhu Guoying bent his fingers, flicked the cigarette butt far away, quickly took out a box, and lit another one, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, what business are you going to do over there?" I heard that it's going to sell hot pot? ”

Lu Li smiled and suddenly said: "Hey, I remember, the last time I went to Beijing (Beijing), I talked to Brother Hua and asked him to join me in a dry stock, why don't you join Brother Ying?" ”

"What am I doing with that? I don't know how to do business either. ”

"I don't want you to do business, but seriously, this kind of hot pot restaurant business, I think it can make a lot of money. Since that's the case, let's get rich together! Brother Ying, I know that you are in the army now, and you don't need to spend money many times, so it can't be said that you don't have any money to spare? Do you know what the world will look like in the future? ”

Zhu Guoying smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I also heard Brother Hua tell me about this, but to be honest, I don't want to take any of your dividends for nothing." Let's just talk about him, he is in Beijing (Beijing), after all, he can help you a little, what about me......"

"Why do you talk like that? Making friends is important in making friends, do you think it's just to ask for help? Besides, when it comes to helping, you're doing less? Needless to say, I provoked such a big basket here, it was you, Regiment Commander Liu, and Staff Officer Xiang who worked together to help me settle it, let's just say that it was the incident that Xu Yunjian went back to, if you hadn't called back here, would it have been solved so smoothly? ”

Seeing that his face was crimson, and he spoke as quickly and quickly as a machine gun, Zhu Guoying scratched his head in embarrassment, "Xiaoxiao, don't be angry, I didn't mean that." I just think that it was our buddies who lost their temper when they helped you at the beginning, and I also have such conditions. Take your money now, as if all the things you did back then were planning for today. I can't erase it in my heart. ”

"It's okay, who doesn't know who? Even if such a bastard voice comes out, you don't pay attention to them. Left and right are these people with hot eyes and jealous hearts! ”

Zhu Guoying laughed, "Well, my brother will be born to you this time!" By the way, what are your next plans, and when will you go back to Hong Kong? ”

"It's going to be a week, I'm here to get some necessary things done, and there may be something I need your help with at that time."

"Nonsense, and I'm still talking about this? Tell me, how can you help me? ”

"I can't mention it for the time being, I'll call you anytime in a few days."

"Okay, what's next?"

"I won't be with you for long, I'll have to leave in a while, and there are a few more to visit."

"No, why don't you have to eat? Where are you going, do I know you? Going with you? ”

"Okay, let's go together, you also know, it's Li Chengsheng."

"I know, I know, the old man who gave you a mouth!"

Lu Li gave him a blank look, "Why don't you open which pot and which pot you mention?" ”

Zhu Guoying laughed.

After lunch in the guest house, he drove straight to the center of the city in a jeep, a little distance from Li Chengsheng's house, Lu Li suddenly moved in his heart and grabbed Zhu Guoying, "What's wrong, why don't you leave?" ”

Lu Li closed his eyes slightly, his expression seemed to be holding back his fart, and suddenly he shouted, "Oh! Brother Ying, let's go faster! ”

"What's wrong?"

Lu Li rushed to the door of Li Chengsheng's house in a few steps, regardless of the rudeness, he opened the horizontal grille door, and rushed in with a shout, and the few people who were talking inside turned around, led by Cao Xun! "Haha!"

Cao Xun jumped up on the spot, rushed to him, and hugged him tightly, "Xiaoxiao, how about it, buddy is enough to mean that, right?" Knowing that you miss us, you took the initiative to send it to the door! ”

"It's ...... Mrs. is too coincidental! Luli stammered a little and said, "You guys...... You...... You're here alone? ”

"Bring a new guy, this is Xiao Sun, grandson, this is Lu Li who talked to you, you can call Li Ge. Xiaoxiao, this is Sun Jin, like us, they are all educated youths, and they can't find a job after returning to the city. ”

"Okay, okay......" Lu Li nodded without a word, and looked at Sun Jin, he was about the same age as himself, white and pure, but he was a little taller, with a restrained smile on his face, and stretched out his hand first, "Brother Li." ”

"Hello." Shaking hands with him, Lu Li's mood calmed down a little, and he greeted Li Chengsheng again, and sat down, "Hey, how did you know I was here?" ”

"I don't know, this time I came here, one is for the costume, and the other is to try my luck, if I can meet you, it's better, if I can't meet you, it's okay, I have to go back in a few days."

"What's the hurry? Stay here with me for a few days, load the clothes in the car first, and then send a telegram to Zhang Qing. You stay a few more days, and let's talk. ”

Cao Xun smiled and nodded, "I didn't say it, by the way, Xiaoxiao, how is your situation in Hong Kong?" ”

"It's good, the first step is to get out. Specifically, you sleep in a room with me tonight, and I'll talk to you well. Luli smiled and patted his old friend on the shoulder, and then asked, "By the way, how is my aunt?" ”

"It's good, it's good, it's good, it's good, it's good. I went to see the old lady before I came out this time, and my mother followed a bag of dumplings. Speaking of which, the old lady just misses you. My sister-in-law and I persuaded for a long time before we were fine. ”

Lu Li sighed gloomily, his aunt was the only concern he couldn't rest assured! Now that he and her are far away, there is no need to mention it, "Okay, you go back this time, give her a message, and say that I will rush back as soon as possible." ”

"No problem."

Lu Li turned his head and chatted with Li Chengsheng for a few words, which was nothing more than some trivial things in the family, but he was born to speak, which made Li Chengsheng laugh from time to time, "Uncle Li, I can stay here for a few days, I will go back today, and I will come to see you in a few days." ”

"Don't, your aunt has already prepared dinner, stay and taste our home-cooked food in Yangcheng?"

"No, Uncle Li, you have also seen it, Cao Xun is coming back this time, I have a lot to say to him, and wait for it, I will come to your house to visit again." Lu Li insisted on leaving, Li Chengsheng was not good at staying, sent a few of them to the gate, watched them board the little jeep, and then turned back.

"Brother Ying, smoke a cigarette." Cao Xun and Sun Jin sat in the back, took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhu Guoying, "Little Sun, why are you so ignorant?" Give it to Brother Ying. ”

"Oh, oh!" Sun Jin smiled apologetically, took out a match, and lit a fire for the three people in the car, "That, doesn't Brother Li smoke?" ”

"He doesn't smoke." Cao Xun took a puff of cigarette, "Xiaoxiao, where do you live when you come back this time?" ”

"Originally, I lived in Brother Rong's, but now I will live in a guest house temporarily, Brother Ying, no problem, right?"

"No problem, no problem, a matter of one word."

Driving all the way back to the guest house, Zhu Guoying arranged two rooms for them and left temporarily, Lu Li and Cao Xun had time to get down to business, "Xiaoxiao, this little grandson, how do you look?" ”

"It's not a big problem, it's just a little bit eyeless."

Cao Xunha's laughter! "That's right! This kid is similar to Xu Yunjian, he is all pulling and moving, and he stands like a fool if he doesn't call him, sometimes I'm quite anxious with him, but I'm obedient. ”

"That's fine. With your current situation, try not to look for those who have too many eyes, like Xiao Sun is good-don't talk about him, how is the business over there? ”

"It's good, but there isn't much meat, I discussed it with Zhang Qing, I went back from Yangcheng, and it was time for him to run to the northeast. The two of us go back and forth, and no one can be idle anyway. Oh, in addition to Xiao Sun, there are two other people, one is named Zhang Liang, and the other is Song Jianhua you know. ”

"Song Jianhua? He's back again? ”

"Isn't it, I said that I would give him mutton according to how much money per catty, but later I found that it was a little difficult to go on - our mutton skewers business here is very good, and the meat we got back is not enough to sell, and finally I discussed it with my sister-in-law and they simply stopped. For this matter, Lao Song is quite unhappy,......"

"Why didn't I know about this?" Lu Li asked a little strangely: "I went back to Tian (Tianjin) last month, why didn't you tell me?" ”

"It's the middle of the month, and I haven't had time to tell you yet." Cao Xun said with some embarrassment.

"No," Lu Li's face was as calm as water, and he shook his head resolutely, "This thing can't be done like this, I have long said that the most important thing in doing business is integrity, and people cannot stand without trust!" I told Lao Song at the beginning, how can I regret it? After you go back, tell Xiao ......, forget it, I'll go back and write a letter to her, and you can take it back to her by the way. ”

"Xiaoxiao, just do what my sister-in-law says, we don't know him too well, why are you so self-sacrificing?"

Lu Li glanced at him in some surprise, "Why don't I go back in person?" ”

Looking at the strange look on his face, Cao Xun was suddenly scared, knowing that he had said something, he shook his head urgently, and said, "Don't, don't, don't, Xiaoxiao, I don't mean anything else, I listen to you, listen to you." So what if we suffer a little bit ourselves? ”

"It's not a question of losing money or not, Cao Xun, I said at the beginning that I would hand over all the business of Tian (Tianjin) to you because you reassured me. But sometimes, when we do business, we can't just look at the little bit of interest in front of us, let's talk about Song Jianhua, you think that he cut off his mutton source, he has no business to do for a while, so he has to lower his head and return to you, follow you and Zhang Qing to start and be a buddy. What about the future? When one day, this kind of mutton and other agricultural and sideline products will no longer become a restriction, and he will hold a grudge in his heart, once he separates again, what he will do is not as simple as doing business by himself, and ruining your reputation by others before and after him - these things, people who are familiar with us may not believe it, but what about those who don't know much about us? Once you believe it, if you want to redeem it, it will be extremely difficult! ”

"Tiny, isn't it?"

"What I'm saying is a bit alarmist, but the general trend is this, while it is important to make money in business, it is equally important to maintain friendships with peers. When necessary, you can even earn a little less. ”

"Okay, I remember. I'll talk to Lao Song when I go back. Cao Xun asked, "Xiaoxiao, how is your situation when you go to Hong Kong this time?" ”

Lu Li smiled proudly, "Cao Xun, I have recently experienced a major event in Hong Kong!" ”

"Oh? What's the matter, tell me quickly. ”

“…………”

By the time Lu Li finished speaking, nearly half an hour had passed, Cao Xun's eyes widened, and he said sneeringly: "Then, you're not injured, are you?" ”

"No, look at me now, isn't it good?" Lu Li smiled and said, "However, after this time, I also have a little understanding of my kung fu, I mean, the depth of my kung fu." ”

"I understand, I understand." After the initial surprise, Cao Xun was also happy, "In that case, the money for the renovation and opening is already there, and now we are waiting for the renovation to end, and then transport things from here?" ”

"Yes. Now it seems that there is no big problem in this regard. Lu Li knew that Cao Xun was a square person, so when he was talking, he hid the content of Qian Youen, "I am now thinking, if this first step can go out and go well, I will expand my business as much as possible, not only this kind of mutton, but even the vegetables and seafood produced in our mainland will be continuously shipped to Hong Kong, if we can seize this best opportunity, it will not be a problem to occupy Hong Kong's vegetable and seafood supply market in the future!" At the very least, we want to get a big share of it! ”

Cao Xun was enthusiastic! How many people are there in Hong Kong? How much food do you have to consume in a year? If you can win such a large market, you will really only have to lie down and count the money! His face flushed, and his breathing was uneven, and he asked, "Xiaoxiao, is it really okay, can there be such a day?" ”

"As long as you have brains, courage, and relationships, this may not be a dream." Luli smiled and said, "Of course, there may be many, many troubles, but it doesn't matter, it's a matter of people!" That's all we have to do with that. “

Cao Xun nodded, "Hey, if I knew that this was the case, I let my sister-in-law come with me." When I came out, she told me, "How nice would it be if I could meet you here by accident?" Tell me about this? ”

Luli didn't speak, but there was a strong longing in his heart, "That, is she okay?" ”

"Okay, my sister-in-law is very good now, I go to my aunt's every day after work, my sister-in-law is here, talking and chatting with the old lady, coaxing a few little bits, hey, Xiaoxiao, my sister-in-law is really good to you, hurry up, when she graduates, you will get married quickly." When the time comes, let's have a good time. ”

"I know, actually, that's what I intended." Luli said, "By the way, how are you and Xiao Huang?" ”

"Not like that? She went to school, and I was on Binjiang Road, so I asked her to come over when I had time, and there was no progress. Cao Xun said: "Hey, how many of them are Xu Yunjian?" Not with you? ”

"I originally wanted to bring them over, but they didn't want to move, maybe they were reluctant to Hong Kong's flower world, right? This group of grandchildren! ”

Cao Xun laughed, "That's right, Xu Yunjian, this grandson, it's best to do this kind of thing." But Xiaoxiao, you have to keep an eye on him, Xu Yunjian is obedient, but you have to be by his side, you can't see it at a glance, he will cause trouble. ”

"I know, to be honest, I can't help it, he's this kind of person, what do you want me to do? Hey, if you miss them, come with me in a few days? Brother have a good walk in Hong Kong, and you will come back? ”

"No, there are still a lot of things going on over there." Cao Xun yawned, pulled the quilt and lay down, "Xiaoxiao, sleep, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

*********************************************************

Cao Xun stayed in Yangcheng for four days, completed the transportation of clothing, and finally came to the time to break up, "Xiaoxiao, go home early for the New Year, everyone misses you too, when the time comes, let's meet at home, I will call Yaohua and them too, let's get together." ”

"I didn't say it," Lu Li smiled and stretched out his hand to shake him, "Have a good trip, it's still the same sentence, our buddies will make money in the future, don't be in a hurry, pay attention to your body." Not only you, Zhang Qing, but you also brought the words for me. ”

"Okay, got it, let's go back."

The body of the train shook, started slowly, and drove away from Yangcheng Station, Luli followed for a few meters, and stopped abruptly. He turned his head to look at Li Zhengrong and Wei Tieliang, and smiled bitterly, "Let's go, let's go see Da Ge!" (To be continued.) )
