Guyuan Town, close to a tributary of the Xiangjiang River, is a well-known ancient town in the country, and millions of tourists visit the town every year. In addition to the urbanization area of the permanent population, it is not comparable to the county seat of Xiangnan, but in terms of the luxury of some entertainment and leisure facilities, it is even better.

At this moment, Ning Qinghua was sitting in a well-known farmhouse restaurant in Guyuan Town, and sitting opposite him was the owner of this restaurant, Tao Rongbin. He can be regarded as a native of Guyuan, and he is also well-known in the local area. It's just that the reason why it is famous is not because of this two-story restaurant with only three facades, but because of the tens of thousands of crabs he raises. In addition to serving his own small restaurant, nine out of ten restaurants in Guyuan Town take crabs from him, and his crab farm can sell hundreds of crabs every day.

In Guyuan Town, Tao Rongbin is also a genuine "crab king".

The table covered with transparent plastic sheeting was already full of crab shells and crab claws, and four or five empty beer bottles were also piled up haphazardly in the corner of the table.

After eating and drinking, Ning Qinghua told the truth the purpose of his visit this time.

"You've resigned!"

Like everyone else, Tao Rongbin was also shocked when he heard that Ning Qinghua had quit his golden job as a civil servant and planned to go home to farm and engage in farming. You know, this is not the time of the 90s of the 20th century, when a large number of civil servants resigned and went to sea. Perhaps compared with a boss like Tao Rongbin, who is not big or small, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, the salary of civil servants is really unsightly. But the problem is that this civil servant has room for advancement, and who knows what position Ning Qinghua will sit in ten years. Maybe it's still a small clerk, or maybe it's already the department director of the county agricultural bureau.

But don't underestimate the position of a department director, even if you don't do those illegal things, it's just a daily ushering and sending, don't worry about business every day The small boss has to nourish a lot, not to mention the gap in social status between the two.

"Brother Tao, no, as soon as I resign, you won't recognize me as a friend!"

Tao Rongbin is a whole round older than Ning Qinghua, just thirty-six this year, because there was a problem with the crabs in the farm, Tao Rongbin, who couldn't solve it, found Ning Qinghua. Ning Qinghua, who was tired and crooked in the office, was also straightforward, stayed in Tao Rongbin's farm for a week, and used the equipment of the county agricultural science station to conduct laboratory analysis, and finally solved the troubles at that time. For this matter, Tao Rongbin was impressed by Ning Qinghua, who was a round of his own minus.

"How can you! I, Tao Rongbin, am not that kind of person! Say, if there is anything that my brother can help, no matter what! ”

Seeing Tao Rongbin patting his chest, Ning Qinghua secretly said that he didn't see the wrong person. At the beginning, he helped him solve the problem, not only because he had free time, but also because he felt that the other party's bold temper was his appetite.

"Hehe, I just want to buy a batch of crab seedlings from Brother Tao's crab farm."

"You want to raise crabs?"

"What? Brother Tao thinks I can't make it? ”

"How can it be, just rely on my brother's brain, it will definitely be done!" Tao Rongbin is not afraid that the other party will grab his market share, and he will not be able to eat the market of Guyuan Town alone! It's just that he has been raising crabs for seven or eight years, and Tao Rongbin knows that raising crabs is not easy. The young man in front of him, who was even a little delicate in appearance, was he able to endure this hardship.

Ning Qinghua is a character who can understand it little by little, how can he not hear the hidden subtext in Tao Rongbin's words, and laughed softly: "I also grew up in the countryside, and I am also a native life!" ”

"Yes, yes! It's all shaved and eaten in the ground, isn't it the life of the earth! ”

Listening to what Ning Qinghua said was interesting, Tao Rongbin couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were no customers in the restaurant, and as for the waiters behind the counter, they obviously wouldn't come to disturb their boss's good mood. …,

The quantity and price of crab seedlings were negotiated, and Tao Rongbin was additionally responsible for door-to-door delivery. The place in Shihe Village is nearly ten miles away from the nearest town that operates buses. It is more than 40 kilometers away from Tao Rongbin's crab farm, and nearly 20 kilometers of it is a winding mountain road, and if you hire a car, this trip will inevitably cost five or six hundred yuan. Don't look at Ning Qinghua who gave his brother 10,000 yuan before going out, which is more than half of Ning Qinghua's savings as a civil servant for half a year. As for the remaining thousands of dollars, almost all of them were spent on crab seedlings. It can be said that on Ning Qinghua's salary card now, there are probably less than 2,000 at his disposal.

The things that should be done are also done smoothly, and when I look at the time, it is almost four o'clock in the afternoon, and there are already customers in the restaurant who are sitting down to order food.

After drinking half a glass of beer in front of him, Ning Qinghua got up and said goodbye. Tao Rongbin didn't hold back too much, seeing that the restaurant was about to reach the peak hour of the day, and he was busy next, and he probably didn't have time to greet the other party.

Out of the restaurant, Ning Qinghua found a small hotel in the middle of town, and after booking a room, Ning Qinghua wandered around this ancient town alone.

"Ning Qinghua!"

Just when Ning Qinghua turned to a small stone bridge, a crisp female voice suddenly came from the ancient street on the opposite bank.

"It's really a senior!"

With the sound, a young girl with a youthful atmosphere ran up from the other end of the stone bridge.

"It's Xiaojin!"

Since cultivating the "Fu Zheng Shen Gang", Ning Qinghua not only has a physical quality far beyond ordinary people, but also has a memory that is far superior to that of ordinary people.

"Seniors still remember me! Hehe! ”

This girl looks like she is only about twenty years old, but in fact she is only one year younger than Ning Qinghua, and she is an alumnus who met at the university association, and the two have met once or twice, but they didn't expect the other party to remember her senior. If it weren't for his excellent memory, I'm afraid I wouldn't have remembered who this cute girl with a baby face was.

Although the other party called himself a senior, but speaking of which, the two graduated in the same school year, and Liang Xiaojin studied a year earlier than ordinary children when he was a child.

"Nishiki!"

was about to open his mouth to ask about Ning Qinghua's current situation, but there was another sound behind him, Liang Xiaojin couldn't help but pat his head, stuck out his tongue, and said with a playful expression: "Damn, pull our boss down!" ”

Ning Qinghua himself is not tall, only 1.7 meters, which is the most ordinary in the south, but Liang Xiaojin in front of him is probably wearing high heels, and it is less than 1.6 meters, plus he is at the height of the middle of the stone arch bridge at the moment, and he can see the "boss" chasing after Liang Xiaojin clearly.

"Hello, my name is Liang Yiyun, and I am Xiaojin's sister-in-law!"
