Chapter Eighty-Seven: Back to the Pot
Liu Yonghan crossed his hands and talked and laughed with the bosses on the dock. It is already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and the peak season close to the end of the year makes the "bangbang" busy from early in the morning until "Jiang Feng fishes and fires to sleep". Despite the hard work, the hot sweat turned into a cold sweat after more than ten hours of physical labor a day, and the more it went into the evening, the more difficult it was to earn this penny.
Fu Shun saw his godfather from a distance, wearing a thick leather coat. is still so sassy and heroic, but more like a general who has commanded a victory, and is "strategizing" with the lieutenant generals. It's no wonder that the current "Scar Liu" is already the real Boss Liu! The big boss of the "Yonghan Freight Labor Company" at Jiangyun City Wharf has nearly 200 people under his hands. He is now not only engaged in the business of the wharf and Jiangyun, but also the private foreign labor export of Jiangyun City.
"Godfather......" Fu Shun stood on the side of the road above the dock and waved with a full load of things. However, the rumbling whistle easily drowned out his voice, until "Luo Mazi" saw this former "second master".
"Boss Liu, the Shun'er you talk about every day is here!" "Luo Mazi" is really a good voice, shouting at the riverside, dozens of pairs of eyes looked at him in unison, and then looked at the top of the stairs.
"Ah, really, boss, it's true, it's your godson!" Another "bangbang" came to a conclusion after careful confirmation.
"Shun'er......" Liu Yonghan put down the hand on his waist and ran up the stone steps, "Shun'er, why didn't you write to say it?" I thought you weren't coming! ”
Liu Yonghan walked up to Fushun, took the scarf on his shoulder, and pulled this young man who was about the same size as him to the staff dormitory area. "Shun'er, look, it's just been covered, and now it finally has a look!"
Fu Shun looked at this "big boss" wearing a leather coat, tie, and a pair of big scalp shoes, the small flat head turned into a big black and shiny back, and the scar on the head was covered by the long hair - if you didn't look closely, you really wouldn't recognize this big boss as the former "Scar Liu".
"Godfather, you are so decent!" Fushun couldn't find the words to "praise" his godfather. But from his aesthetic point of view, he prefers the former "Boss Liu", the capitalist-like "Boss Liu", he really can't appreciate it.
"Hehe," Scar Liu touched his hard Morse head, "Actually, I don't want to be this virtuous, but look at these people who are doing business now, if you don't do it like this, no one will recognize you as a boss!" ”
"Also, even the driver of our car in Ishibashi is dressed about the same as you. Is it cold to wear this? ”
"It's not cold!" Liu Yonghan suddenly put down his back, asked Fushun to stop, took off the leather clothes on his body, and draped them on Fushun, "Haha, Boss Liu!" ”
Fushun is not only not used to this title, but also unaccustomed to this heavy leather coat on his body - although there is still a thick layer of fluff on the inside. "Godfather, take it and put it on, it's very cold!"
"It's not cold, I've given it to you, Shun'er, you wear it, you look good!"
Fu Shun took the clothes in his hand and followed behind his godfather. "Godfather, that warehouse has been demolished?"
Fushun pointed to the location of the warehouse that used to be a dormitory. The cube, which covers an area of thousands of square meters, stands like a neat box by the river, and the sign of "Jiangyun Yonghan Goods and Labor Co., Ltd." is hung at the door!
"After demolishing it, I thought of many ways to get this land. The first floor is a warehouse, half of the second floor is the company's administrative office, and the other half and the entire third floor are dormitories for employees. Liu Yonghan happily introduced his proud work.
"That'...... Where's my pile of stones? Fu Shun got up in a hurry.
"In addition to the stones, your remaining books and rulers have all been moved to the second floor!"
"And what about my pair of stones?"
"Stone...... Xiang Yu had to ask for the stone at that time, so I found a few people to send it to her! I thought you knew! ”
"Xiang Yu? So a big bunch of all she moved away? ”
"Yes! Shun'er, that's such a good girl! By the way, you didn't get in touch with her? ”
"No, but I heard Wang Guangwen say that she went abroad!" Fu Shun followed his godfather to the second floor with sadness.
Liu Yonghan opened the general manager's office and lit up the bright crystal lamp. The room was full of mahogany furniture, more than thirty square meters, and behind the desk was a huge swivel leather chair with two pots of daffodils on it. There is a rectangular white box hanging on the wall, and the godfather takes the remote control and presses it gently, and the box releases a gust of hot air - this guy, the high-end office of the national leader is nothing more than that!
"Godfather, you have to spend a lot of money here, huh?"
"Anyway, now the state has loans, and the country's money is spent, what are you afraid of! The country used to be sorry for our generation, and now it thinks about how to repay it! ”
Fu Shun felt that his godfather's words were strange. Even if the timbre is still as loud as a bell, there is no longer the embellishment of those poems, nor the humorous "gossip"
Liu Yonghan put down the basket and beckoned Fu Shun to sit down on the mahogany. The heating in the white box spread through the room with the dull air, and it was so smooth that it could not be suffocated.
"Shun'er, have a cup of tea, this is authentic Yunnan Pu'er tea, it tastes very good, and Director Wang of the Education Bureau is the favorite!" Liu Yonghan used the boiling water in the thermos to make a cup of tea for Fushun, "I can get you a student status, thanks to Director Wang!" ”
Fu Shun then remembered the purpose of coming to Jiang Yun this time, but he didn't have the heart to talk about it yet, because his stomach was already rumbling after being hungry for a day!
Liu Yonghan didn't seem to notice his godson's hungry call at all, and expressed a long feeling: "I lived in vain in the first half of my life, and I only woke up in the second half of my life." I'm sorry for many people in this life, my father, my sister, and Ma Lanhua, and I'm sorry for myself. I can't live like this in the second half of my life, the debts I owe before will be repaid later, and now my life is better, and my life will be better in the future, and living my life well is the last word. Now that the company is registered, the scene is open, and a lot of money is counted every day. This money, you don't count it, but when you count it, you know that it's really a good thing......"
"Godfather, I'm hungry!" Fu Shun was a little uncomfortable listening to those words, and instantly felt that the person in front of him was not the "Scar Liu" who valued love and righteousness in the past.
"Oh, look at my skull...... I'm going to call Mao Xian to get up and give you the whole thing to eat! "Mao Xian is an aunt who cooks on the stove in a big pot. Liu Yonghan got up and walked out, taking off a thick military coat from the hanger.
"No, where's the kitchen? I'll eat it whole by myself! It's so late, everyone is asleep! ”
"No, sit down. If you get paid a month, you have to do it no matter how late it is! It's all in one go. ”
Fushun sat on the sofa and looked at a few big words on the wall uneasily - "Tranquility Zhiyuan". This is a godfather's favorite idiom, godfather said, it comes from Zhuge Liang's "Book of Commandments", the original words are "non-indifferent and unambitious, non-quiet and far-reaching", which means that we must meditate and reflect, not be swayed by distracting thoughts, in order to achieve lofty goals.
But now this "Boss Liu" has hung the four words that were originally hidden in his heart on the wall, and the so-called "tranquility" is just the "ethereal" of the middle of the night in this big office.
"Mother-in-law, Lao Tzu said that he ate dozens of catties of meat in a day! It turns out that every night he opens a small stove for his man! Liu Yonghan held a bowl of steaming hot pot meat in his hand, pushed open the door angrily, and threw the bowl on the desk. Frightened, Fu Shun, who had just sat down, stood up again.
"What's the matter, godfather?"
"The mother-in-law surnamed Mao, you don't need me to shout, I'm busy in the kitchen, I don't see it, I know that my godson is here, and the meat is all fried!" Liu Yonghan rushed out of the door, with an obvious sarcastic tone. "Get in!"
Fu Shun looked at Mao Xian with a red face and a bowed head - this fat aunt who had been at the dock for a long time and Fu Shun were also old acquaintances. "Mao Xian, thank you for your hard work!"
"Hard shit! I said that one day he looks like a pig, stealing his mouth, and a few wild men also taste fishy, right? ”
Only then did Fushun understand that Mao Xian quietly made a supper in the kitchen for a few jobs that were still working at the dock, and was hit by the boss.
"Godfather, forget it, they are very tired from doing work, what do they have to eat meat!"
"You know! Dozens or hundreds of pounds of meat a day! Not enough for them, huh? ”
Mao Xian's tears kept flowing out. Fu Shun hurriedly walked over, and while handing over a look to his godfather, he pulled Mao Xian to the stove room on the third floor. Fushun comforted the fat aunt for a long time, and patted her chest to ensure that the godfather would not drive her away because of this, so he took the meal to the second floor.
Liu Yonghan casually flipped through a copy of "The Ups and Downs of the Business Sea", and when he saw Fu Shun coming down, he pushed a bowl of meat with only a trace of heat down in front of him, "Eat quickly, Shun'er!" ”
"Godfather, you're so fierce now!" Fu Shun swallowed a mouthful of rice and took another sip of Pu'er tea, which was almost cold.
"Don't be fierce, Shun'er, now there are nearly two hundred people on the dock, and they have to help the first few big companies in the city to recruit workers, if you are not strict, not only do I have nothing to eat, but even they will starve! All year round, I give them more money than they earn by digging hoes in the countryside! Eat me, live me, even a few bosses who run freight, think of a benevolent boss like me! ”
"Godfather, what are you going to do with Mao Xian?"
"Together with his men, roll up and roll away!"
"She's been with you for seven or eight years, hasn't she?"
"Seven or eight years? The anemone has been with me for nearly ten years, and in the end, it was wrong for me! ”
"That's different, Mao Xian didn't have any bad intentions, just add a meal to a few bangbangs......"
"Shun'er, eat the meat, eat it all, I won't pursue her after eating!" Liu Yonghan looked at Fushun, who didn't hold a piece of meat and couldn't swallow a mouthful of rice, and his heart softened a little......
