158. Regain sovereignty
When the days were calm, Lin Zichen put all his thoughts back on studying.
The final exams are approaching, and the students of Pingfu High School have no more leisure to gossip about other people's affairs, and they are all engaged in intense study.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and it coincided with the monthly holiday, and the Friday classes at Pingfu High School were only held until noon, and the students could go home in the afternoon.
Lin Zichen held a few books in his arms, left the school alone and returned to the convenience store.
"Aunt Li, I'm back." Lin Zichen shouted at Li Xin in the store.
"Xiao Chen is back, come in, have you eaten? The soup is hot in the pot, so go and drink a little. Li Xin urged Lin Zichen to hurry up and enter the house.
"Eh, I'll be right here."
Lin Zichen went upstairs to put down his things, and went down to the first floor into the kitchen to serve soup and drink.
"Aunt Li, are there many people who come to buy things today?" Lin Zichen drank soup while talking to Li Xin in the shop.
Li Xin said with a smile while stringing the beads in his hand: "During this period of time, the people who buy things have gradually stabilized, and the income has gradually stabilized, and at least seventy or eighty yuan can be credited to the account every day." ”
"Well, that's good."
In addition to the soup, there was still hot food in the pot, Lin Zichen had no appetite, so he continued to put the rest of the vegetables back in the pot and heated them, waiting for Li Ji to come back and eat them.
"Xiao Chen, I'm back."
As soon as Lin Zichen finished washing the dishes and chopsticks, Li Ji's voice came from outside the house.
Lin Zichen walked out of the kitchen, and when he saw it, the two Gu Mingxuan brothers also came: "Brother Mingxuan, Mingze, why are you here too?" ”
Gu Mingze explained lightly: "Our classes are also held until noon, and we can go home in the afternoon." ”
"Horn" Suddenly there was the sound of a car horn outside the house.
Lin Zichen looked out curiously and actually saw Jiang Rong. So he asked Li Ji strangely: "Why is Uncle Jiang here too?" ”
Gu Mingxuan said with a smile: "Uncle Jiang said that he hadn't been to Fenghezhuang for a long time, and he wanted to take advantage of the weekend to have a look." ”
Lin Zichen suddenly realized, and saw Jiang Rong sitting in the driver's seat and waving to her with a smile, and knew that the matter was probably settled.
"Xiao Chen, do you have anything you need to take home? Hurry up and clean up, let's take Uncle Jiang's hitchhike home. Li Ji urged.
"I don't have anything to take, just leave." Lin Zichen said lightly with both hands.
"Then let's go right away. Rush back and expect to have lunch. Gu Mingxuan said.
"You haven't eaten yet. Do you want to eat here and go back? It's just not a lot of food. Li Xin asked embarrassedly.
Lin Zichen also missed the food at home, so he said to Li Xin: "Thank you, Aunt Li, let's go back and eat." It will take more than half an hour to drive back to Fenghezhuang from the county seat, and I am not very hungry yet, so it is just right to go back for lunch. ”
"Okay, then be careful on your way." Li Xin instructed.
Lin Zichen nodded. followed Li Ji and the others out of the convenience store.
"Eh, wait a minute." Lin Zichen suddenly shouted. I turned around and went back to the store, got a bag, and took a lot of snacks from the shelves and stuffed them inside.
Considering the presence of Gu Mingze and Jiang Rong, two uninformed people, Lin Zichen said to Li Xin: "Aunt Li, these snacks will be paid on credit first, and I will give you money when I come back." ”
"Alright. Go ahead. Li Xin replied with a smile, knowing in her heart that Lin Zichen was asking her to keep counting.
Li Ji and the others said goodbye to Li Xin and got into Jiang Rong's car.
"Uncle Jiang. I treat you to a drink and thank you for taking us home. Lin Zichen sat in the passenger seat. handed a bottle of drink to Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong took it with a smile: "A bottle of drink offsets my fuel cost, this transaction is a bit worthless!" ”
"Hahaha!" Gu Mingxuan and the others immediately laughed.
Jiang Rong started the car, and the car drove away, leaving a trail of cigarettes.
Li Xin waved his hand and watched a few people walk away, and did not turn around and go back to the house until he couldn't see the car.
It was already half past twelve when they returned to Fenghezhuang, Jiang Rong's car stopped at Gu's house, and seeing that the doors and windows were locked, Gu Mingxuan's brothers knew that their father was probably going to Li's house to eat again.
"Uncle Jiang, let's go to Xiao Chen's house together, my dad is probably eating at their house again." Gu Mingxuan said to Jiang Rong helplessly.
Lin Zichen chuckled: "Uncle Gu must be too lazy to cook at home alone, how good it is to go to my house to eat, it is lively." ”
"Well, I also miss Xiao Chen's green vegetables a little, and those green vegetables are the best I've ever tasted." Jiang Rong couldn't help but start drooling.
Li Dawei laughed: "I've only heard people say that they miss someone's cooking, and it's the first time I've heard that I miss our family's vegetables." ”
Gu Mingxuan and the others also laughed when they heard this.
"You don't know, your food is really delicious." Jiang Rong said seriously.
"Then Uncle Jiang will be able to eat our family's food soon." Lin Zichen walked in front and led Jiang Rong to his home.
"Grandpa, Grandma, let's come back! I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat? Lin Zichen shouted into the house.
Li Yuedi and others, who were eating in the house, heard the sound and hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks. And Li Weiyan turned around and went to the kitchen to get dishes and chopsticks.
As soon as Jiang Rong stepped into the door of the Li family, he smelled the aroma of food, and when he saw Gu Sting, he walked up even more eagerly: "Sting, I'm here." ”
"Jiang Rong?" Gu Sting stepped forward and looked at Jiang Rong in surprise: "Why are you here?" ”
Li Yuedi beckoned a few people to sit down, and Jiang Rong said while eating: "Come and see what is going on here in the manufacturing factory, go around and around, I still think there is a lot of potential here." ”
Gu Sting knew that Jiang Rong had been robbed of the management rights of the manufacturing plant, and when he heard Jiang Rong say that the management rights of the manufacturing plant were taken back, Gu Sting couldn't help but be happy in his heart.
"Eat, eat, and we'll have a good talk after eating." Gu Stin warmly beckoned Jiang Rong to eat more vegetables.
The Li family didn't think that Gu Sting's behavior was suspicious of taking the lead, but persuaded Jiang Rong to eat more like Gu Sting, which moved Jiang Rong, a single old man, to tears.
After eating, the women of the Li family cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and then went back to their rooms for a lunch break.
The two Gu Mingxuan brothers also returned to the Gu family, leaving the men of the Li family and Gu Siting and Jiang Rong sitting in the hall chatting.
"Dad, I'm going back to my room to do my homework." Lin Zixi stood up from Lin Qingxiang's side and said.
Lin Qingxiang touched his son's head with satisfaction: "Hmm." Go ahead, sleep for a while after finishing your homework, don't get too tired. ”
"Hmm." Lin Zixi nodded, got up and went back to the room.
Lin Zichen looked at his younger brother, who was already in the sixth grade, and he was also very proud in his heart. Twelve-year-old Lin Zixi began to smoke strips, becoming more and more like a little adult.
Li Ji also left the hall under the pretext of supervising Lin Zixi, and Lin Zichen wanted to leave. was stopped by Gu Sting. So I had to sit back in my place.
"Jiang Rong, tell me how your kid got back the management of the manufacturing plant this time?" Gu Sting patted Jiang Rong's arm and asked.
Thinking that when he learned that Jiang Rong had been tripped and lost the management of the manufacturing plant, Gu Sting was so worried that he didn't sleep well for several nights. Fortunately, the buyer's information is in their own hands. Even if the new ruler did not take care of the manufacturing plant at all, the business did not fall at all. Gu Stin also had to thank the new ruler for ignoring the manufacturing plant, so that the interests of the Zhuang people were not harmed.
Jiang Rong listened to Gu Siting's words and said with a smile: "I have to thank Xiao Chen and Mingxuan for this, if it weren't for the two of them giving me an idea." I really couldn't have taken back the initiative of the manufacturing plant so easily. ”
"Oh, this has something to do with our family Xiao Chen?" Li Bangguo interjected curiously.
Jiang Rong explained: "Yes. Uncle Li, I have to praise your Xiaochen's brain is alive, and he has already caught the other party's psychology firmly, as long as I follow the plan. The other party must have taken the bait, and sure enough, the other party really handed over the management of the manufacturing plant to me. ”
Jiang Rong couldn't help but feel happy when he remembered Zeng Rong's expression when he promised not to interfere in the affairs of the manufacturing plant in front of everyone in the county government.
Jiang Rong carefully mentioned Lin Zichen as he promoted the planting of peanuts in Donghui Town. Engaging in an oil mill to make money attracted Zeng Rong's attention, and finally put his mind on the oil mill. Because of this, he had to give up the management of the manufacturing plant and told the Li family and Gu Siting about it.
Several men in the Li family were angry when they learned that Zeng Rong actually used tricks to take away the management of the manufacturing plant, and when they learned that Jiang Rong skillfully used clever tricks to fight for sovereignty, they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Lin Zichen looked at Jiang Rong's slightly exaggerated narration, sat aside and couldn't help shaking his head. The story is not so complicated at all, but it is particularly exciting and thrilling from Jiang Rong's mouth. Lin Zichen suddenly felt that Jiang Rong was really a loss if he didn't want to be a storyteller.
Jiang Rong said the words in his heart in one go, and the whole person was relieved. After drinking a sip to moisten my throat, I remembered the main purpose of coming to Fenghezhuang this time.
So Jiang Rong turned to look at Lin Zichen and asked curiously, "Xiao Chen, didn't you say before that there is a big thing waiting for me to take back my sovereignty?" What's the big deal? Let's hear about it. ”
Lin Zichen smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Jiang, I have already handed over this matter to my uncle and Uncle Gu, if you want to know anything, you can ask them directly, what about me, let's enjoy my vacation only once a month!" After that, he got up and prepared to go back to his room for a lunch break.
"Eh, Xiao Chen, don't leave yet." Jiang Rong and Gu Sting stopped Lin Zichen at the same time.
Lin Zichen turned around and asked puzzledly, "What?" Anything else? ”
Gu Sting said embarrassedly: "Xiao Chen, I have read the plan you gave me before, but I am still not sure, so you can stay and give us a move." ”
Lin Zichen was speechless, looked at Li Weiye, and saw that Li Weiye also looked like he didn't know what to do, so he had to resign himself to continuing to work as a coolie.
Gu Sting and Li Weiye were overjoyed, and the worries in their hearts were gone.
"Jiang Rong, you take a look at this plan first, it is about our plan for the development of the entire Jiangchun Town, if you also think it is feasible, then we will pull the mayor into our camp, and then as long as the county magistrate agrees, we can directly contact the city government." Gu Sting handed the plan book in his hand to Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong took the thick stack of papers, looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more stunned he became, and after reading it, there was only an indescribable shock left in his heart. (To be continued) R580
