Chapter 101: I'm going to prove myself
When the sky was bright, although she was very tired, she never felt sleepy, and Miki, who was sleeping on the pillow, gently closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep.
Feeling the swelling in my head, I went to the balcony and lit myself a cigarette, unfortunately the view here is very limited, not as wide as I am on the outskirts of Shanghai, there is more real estate here, but this does not affect my pleasure of enjoying the pleasure of smoking in the morning.
In the past few days, I have hit a wall at work, let me know how unbearable I used to be in my own eyes, in fact, I really shouldn't have impulsively run out to drink last night, toss Mickey all night without talking, what I have gained is just a lesson, and in order to harvest this lesson, the price paid is also a little beyond my imagination......
I slept until noon, when I got up, Mickey was already gone, and the mouth was a little stinky after drinking, so I went to the bathroom to wash up, and when it was almost done, Mickey opened the security door of the living room, and then walked in with some vegetables in her hand and complained that the vegetables in Beijing were more expensive than those in Shanghai, and while I comforted her, my eyes were immediately attracted by the vegetables in her hands, and I had a bold idea in my mind......
A lunch that was not sumptuous but full of warmth began, and after a few bites of the meal, Mi Qi put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and looked at me and said, "Wang Ye, do you think the dignity of men is very important?" ”
I knew Mickie was trying to convince me to agree to her request to arrange a job for me! So he nodded and said, "Dignity is the foundation of a man...... But I think your question is very one-sided, in fact, it's not just men, it's individuals who have dignity, don't they? ”
Miki bit her lip tightly and said, "Or...... You just just look for a job, how can it be possible to always think about finding a job that suits you and has money? It's a real society! ”
I nodded: "I understand what you said, I go to the streets in the afternoon to look around, and I can find any job, and I will do it!" You have to find a job to do first! Otherwise, it's quite useless to spend your money all the time! ”
"I didn't mean that!"
I put down the chopsticks in my hand, looked at Mi Qi and said, "Actually, I don't mean anything else, I just want to ask you to believe me and prove my strength for me, okay?" ”
Mickey exhaled: "I believe in you, there is no rush to work!" ”
I kept silent, but I didn't say anything, because I had low self-esteem with Mickie at this time, because I was too emotional, I imagined everything too beautiful, but when those real-life problems were very real, I didn't have the slightest ability to change him! But I will never bow my head and admit defeat easily, I said, I want to conquer this Beijing! It's not just talk!
In the afternoon, I went to a large vegetable wholesale market in Beijing alone, I came with a purpose, and then asked each merchant about the price of each vegetable and made a detailed record! In the market, I met a man named Li Kang, who was about forty years old, who was in the daikon business, and spoke a dialect with a Henan accent.
Sitting down in front of his truck, I took the initiative to hand him a cigarette, he smiled lightly, looked at the small notebook I was holding in my hand, and entered the market in a suit and leather shoes, and asked me: "Do you want to buy for the supermarket?" ”
I smiled awkwardly: "No, I'm just interested in this industry, I want to try it!" ”
Li Kang took a puff of cigarette, wrapped himself in a long cotton coat, and said, "It's risky to do business, you should be a college graduate, right?" Why don't you do it, you have to wade into the flood here! It's all the work of some uneducated people! ”
I told the truth: "The most important thing in China is college students, with a stable salary of five or six thousand yuan a month, it is better to run out and break through by yourself!" Graduate students can earn tens of millions of dollars by selling stinky tofu, and this industry may not be a way out! ”
Li Kang nodded in agreement, took another puff of cigarette and asked, "Do you have a job in Beijing?" ”
I shook my head and said no, then Li Kang looked at his truck and asked me: "This bag of radishes is fifty pounds, can you get off the car with your suit off?" ”
I looked embarrassed, this car of seventy or eighty thousand catties of goods, I thought I really couldn't do it, but Li Kang seemed to have already anticipated my thoughts, so he explained with a smile: "It's not as terrifying as you think, although there are a lot of goods in a truckload, but you just have three people to do it, seeing that you are a fellow countryman, there is just a lack of a small job...... 200 yuan a day, lunch at noon, if you think you are capable, you can start coming over tomorrow morning, the salary will be settled on the same day, and you can smoke me! ”
I admit that Li Kang's conditions are not bad, but since the moment I stepped into this market, I have never thought of living by taking a stable salary, I said that I want to conquer this Beijing, and I want to write my name Wang Ye on the land of Beijing! It's not enough to just rely on five or six thousand a month, and when I sat in the office and blew the air conditioner in Yigou, my monthly salary was not lower than this amount, so how could I come to the market to do such dirty work.
So he smiled awkwardly and said, "I received your kindness, but I really didn't come to the market to find a job!" I want to make more money! ”
Li Kang patted me on the shoulder again: "Young man, you first have to think about following me yourself, what can you get from it?" Was it just two hundred dollars that day? ”
I looked at Li Kang with a lack of understanding......
At this time, he took another puff of cigarette: "Everyone wants to climb to the sky in one step, but they always ignore the fundamentals, and they can't bear this dirty work, so they vainly claim to make a lot of money...... Your mentality is impetuous...... Literati can only talk about dreams, in my eyes you are bragging, go back to your office and blow the air conditioner, kid! This industry is not for you! ”
I clenched my fists, but I tried to control the anger in my heart......
Sitting outside the gate of the wholesale vegetable market, I smoked one cigarette after another, I admitted that my heart was a little impetuous, in fact, with my diploma and ability, it was too casual to get a monthly salary of five or six thousand, but this was not what I wanted! Maybe in the eyes of others, I am arrogant, but at this time, Mickey has a salary of tens of thousands of dollars for casually taking on an advertisement, and I take this salary every month, it is really difficult to compare with her, I can't stand others talking about her behind my back, and I can't stand others pointing at me behind my back.
The warm light pierced me from opening my eyes, I turned my hand into an OK gesture, looking from the circle circled by my thumb and index finger, I seemed to really see what Ah Huo said**, all the ugliness of those worlds appeared in front of my eyes, and I saw a familiar figure join them......
The whistle sounded, a red Audi sedan stopped on the road not far from me, I half-squinted, only to see a slender beautiful leg from the open car door walked down, and then I saw a person wearing a fiery red Korean version of the small windbreaker, black tight leather pants, wearing sunglasses and a high ponytail and stepping on high heels walking towards me, this person is Mickie's model friend in the Shanghai company, Ruan Yuwei.
With Ruan Yuwei's dazzling dress, most of the eyes of some farmers and buyers were focused on her, but she walked all the way to me in a straight line.
"This world is really small enough, isn't it?" Ruan Yuwei took off her sunglasses and looked at me with a smile.
I looked at Ruan Yuwei in some surprise, and after a pause, I said, "Fire Cloud Evil God......"
"Go, you really can't say good things in your mouth!" Ruan Yuwei looked at the small notebook in my hand and asked, "What are you doing here?" If you buy vegetables for your family, you can run the wholesale market! …… It's cheaper here than there! But you seem to be taking it too seriously!! ”
"You can't talk enough, do you say that I'm more careful than a woman?" I gave up a place next to me, patted her and motioned for her to sit down, Ruan Yuwei didn't care so much, she turned around and sat down next to me, and asked me with a smile: "Did you drink yesterday?" ”
There was a burning heat on my face, and I hurriedly lit a cigarette for myself to hide the embarrassment in my heart, at this time Ruan Yuwei took a cigarette from the cigarette case in my hand and lit it...... After taking two puffs and gently exhaling the smoke again, Ruan Yuwei asked me again, "Do you usually run out to drink alone?" ”
I shook my head, embarrassed: "Yesterday was an exception!" ”
"What's upset about it?"
"Nope!"
Ruan Yuwei said with a skeptical face: "It's because of micky, right?" ”
I took two puffs of cigarette and was silent for a long time before I looked at Ruan Yuwei with a straight face and asked, "From the perspective of a third person, do you think I am compatible with Mi Qi?" ”
Ruan Yuwei hesitated a little, and finally said: "To be honest, it's not worthy...... But although she is excellent in all aspects, you are not without advantages, a heart that loves her, what material can be exchanged for it? ”
"Hehe......" I let out a long sigh, knowing that she was comforting her based on kindness, and flicked the cigarette ash in my hand, and I asked her curiously: "Why did you come to Beijing?" ”
"Go home...... My family is from Beijing! Ruan Yuwei was speechless and spat out the smoke: "Do you know, I just got off the plane yesterday, and I received a call from Micky, she asked me to ask a friend in Beijing to help find you...... It's enough to hang it, blow the beggars away, and you sit there and sing......"
I was speechless for a while, in my memory, these things really never appeared, but subconsciously there seemed to be a little blurred image, maybe this is the sequelae of drinking, but at the same time I was even more puzzled in my heart when I was drunk, Su Man did not look for me, so with a trace of expectation, asked: "When you saw me yesterday, did you see a woman in a black trench coat?" ”
"Black trench coat ......" Ruan Yuwei fell into a burst of memories, but finally shook her head and said: "Your posture at that time, the excitement surrounded you, and the reporter almost alarmed you...... As for the woman in the black trench coat, she really hasn't been impressed! ”
I nodded, because in my vague memory, I seemed to remember that Suman had made an accusation against me, and we seemed to snuggle up tightly together to drink and talk about ideals in the cold wind...... It doesn't really matter if it's proven or not, but I just don't believe in my heart that it's just a game and a dream......
Ruan Yuwei's appearance was more like passing the boring afternoon for me, and she didn't sit here for long before driving away...... And I was alone again and had to face this boring afternoon, and Li Kang finally said to me: "The ideals that the literati talk about are just bragging in his eyes!" Like a headless fly "buzzing" in my ears, I didn't believe it, I didn't believe why I couldn't do what they could do? I can't forget the sneering glances of those people when I walked out of the market!
With the reluctance in my heart, I turned around and returned to the market again, took off my suit, I stood in front of Li Kang, he looked at me with a hint of surprise: "Why are you back again?" ”
I looked at him with very firm eyes and said, "I'll do your job, start today!" But I don't want a penny from you today! I just want to prove it to you, to all of you, that I can't do the work you do! And what I can do, you may not be able to do! ”
Li Kang said with a contemptuous smile: "Then you prove it to me, there are less than 30,000 catties of goods left in this car, if you can unload them all tonight, I believe you are a gentleman!" ”
I quietly looked at the bags of white radishes wrapped in sacks, although my heart was not scored, but I was not afraid at all, gritted my teeth, I climbed directly into the truck, and then everyone began to carry bags of goods......
Time gradually passed, the sky gradually darkened, and more than three hours passed in a blink of an eye, and in these three hours, I unloaded almost nearly 20,000 catties of goods! And although I had a break in the middle, I was already tired to the point of back pain, especially after I stopped carrying goods, my waist was about to be straightened! But in order not to let the people in the market see the joke, I gritted my teeth and stood by the truck as if nothing had happened!
At this time, the phone in my mobile phone pocket rang, and I went around to the back of the truck to find a quiet place to connect the phone, which was from Sun Zhenzhen.
I took a deep breath, adjusted my mentality, and then turned into the phone and asked, "What's the matter with calling?" ”
Sun Zhenzhen said in a deep voice: "It's been a few days since I went to Beijing, don't you know how to call me?" ”
I gasped: "I'm so busy all day, how can I have time to call you?" ”
"Busy? You're going to work so soon, huh? Is the salary good? And is it fun over there in Beijing? "Sun Zhenzhen's series of questions were thrown to me like a curious baby! However, I didn't know how to describe my current living situation, and I didn't want my friends in Shanghai to know that I was unloading goods for others and doing hard work, so I struggled with how to answer Sun Zhenzhen's question.
