After passing through Chongwen Gate and walking a short distance in the direction of Hutong Street, you can see the ruins of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty.

After the Xinchou Treaty, it was included in the embassy area and became a training ground for foreign garrisons, who also built an airfield here, and can still see abandoned earthen planes hidden among the rocks of Cangsong Mountain.

After the spring of 1955, the planning of Dongcheng District was basically completed, the urban and rural roads were smooth, and the extra Dongdan garden was one of the garden construction of Dongcheng District of Beiping.

The huge rich man who invested in the construction of Dongdan Park is Qin Sanye.

Dongdan Park is rich in vegetation and was often a place of pleasure for men and women at night before it was built. Qin Sanye's investment in construction did not destroy the vegetation inside, but introduced a lot of rockeries, fountains, and bamboo forests, expanding the garden in Dongcheng District to nearly 50,000 square meters.

From Sanlitun to Dongdan Park, it takes two hours to walk and less than an hour to reach by trot.

Every day from his home, Xiao Wu will pass by Dongdan Park when he picks up the rickshaw rental company on Hutong Street, and the construction of the park has been started for half a year, and Xiao Wu has also run a rickshaw for half a year.

In the past six months, Xiao Wu has gone from being shy and rusty at the beginning, to becoming a veteran of rickshaw running, he has seen all kinds of people and encountered all kinds of things.

At that time, the wages of workers working in factories were between 60 and 80 a month, and the overtime pay was at most 100, and the work on construction sites was about 150 a month, and the money earned by running rickshaws was more flexible, and the lazy people with poor physical strength could earn 70 or 80 a month, and the good people with good physical strength and familiar with the route could earn 3 or 400 a month.

Xiao Wu earned more than 170 in the first month, and more than 400 in the second month, at that time, the people in Sanlitun were very envious, and they all said that Zhang Xiumei did not lose money in adopting Xiao Wu, her son died, and this godson was more prosperous than her own son.

With an income of more than 400 yuan a month, people in Sanlitun can't even think of it.

Xiao Wu seems to have endless strength, and he specializes in running long distances, sweating profusely every time he runs down, and his figure is getting stronger and stronger.

In the past six months, Xiao Wu and the coachmen in Dongcheng District have long been acquainted, often mixing gags, fighting cocks and lackeys, and after walking a few times at the wine table, they will call each other brothers.

Xiao Wu is the youngest, only nineteen years old after the New Year, in this group of coachmen is often the object of everyone's teasing, maybe he is well developed, everyone will suddenly sneak him when they fight, Xiao Wu doesn't care, still with everyone hippie smile. Once Xiao Wu reacted when he was napping in the shade of the tree, several people fell into the well and stood on the side of the road to beckon the little girls who passed by, and saw that the girls looked ashamed and angry, but they couldn't feel it, and they couldn't wait to untie Xiao Wu's belt and find out.

Half a year later, the rickshaw rental companies in Beiping City introduced new equipment, and the original rickshaw was turned into a power-assisted tricycle, which greatly saved the driver's physical strength. However, the main power tricycle is easy to turn over when riding fast, and the rent is also 50 yuan more expensive than the rickshaw.

Later, for the sake of corporate image, the rickshaw leasing company took back the old-fashioned rickshaw and replaced it with a full power tricycle, which was not bought and sold to the outside world, and the price was too expensive for no driver to afford.

Over the past six months, the company will have two regular meetings every month, Wang Hu as one of the senior executives of the rickshaw company, every time he will attend the meeting, he often plays with his fingers when he sits on the table, a cynical look, Xiao Wu wanted to find a chance to have a good drink with Wang Hu, but Wang Hu's appearance made him feel sour. First, he is at a disadvantage, as an employee under Wang Hu, and secondly, he has become so powerful after not seeing Wang Hu for a few years, as if he has changed a person, although he has big eyes, he is also fleshy, and he is always a little uncomfortable.

However, Xiao Wu does not ask for help, and he will not go through the back door because of Wang Hu in public or private, he has a clear conscience, and he should have never known this person who was a brother before.

People will always change gradually in the process of growing up, some are subtle for a long time, and some are sudden changes in temperament of a certain thing, Xiao Wu feels that even he has changed, not to mention Wang Hu, who left school too early.

Xiao Wu remembered that Wang Hu many years ago was a little fat man who loved to cry, even when girls said that he would cry, he taught Wang Hu who bullied him to bully him with his fists, no one will offend me, I will not offend anyone.

Xu is that over the years, Wang Hu has gradually understood the truth that the fittest survive and the strong are respected, so as the eldest son of the local wealthy Wang family, he is ruthless, so that those who bullied him before will understand what it means to touch the tiger's buttocks.

Sometimes Wang Hu will take a lot of people to fight with others outside, if he can't beat it, he will go back to the company to move the rescuers, pull a group of rickshaw drivers over to fight, and if he wins, he will be rewarded, and whoever is injured will get a condolence fee.

Although Xiao Wu didn't want to go, but every time he could only fight with a large group of thirties laborers, he always remembered Niu Aihua and Zhang Xiumei's words over the years, don't fight with people outside, his strength is too great, and if you are not careful, you will kill people. Today's Xiao Wu is as strong as a cow, not to mention killing people with a fist, at least his bones will be broken.

Everyone is young in the fifth year, so he stands behind and no one says that he is not, and the little five are popular, and the old bridgehead is a brother, the old bridgehead is a good hand at fighting, every time he rushes to the front, almost invincible, with him covering the little five, naturally no one says anything about him.

The employees didn't say anything, but Wang Hu, who was the provocateur, couldn't get over it, he knew that Xiao Wu could fight, but Xiao Wu hid behind every time, he was naturally unhappy and dissatisfied with Xiao Wu.

There are two reasons for fighting, one is to grab the land, the other is to grab the source of customers, at that time, a number of moped rental companies emerged in Beiping City, Wang Hu's family occupied the mountain as the king, and often took people to the newly opened moped rental company to make trouble, smash a light bulb or splash on the door of other people's companies.

Once in a fight, the enemy was outnumbered, Xiao Wu stood behind the crowd and saw that the old bridge head was slashed on the back, blood flowed straight, he stepped forward to drag the old bridge head away, a young man chased after him, one person held a machete in his hand, cut head-on, was kicked away by Xiao Wuyi's foot, and lay on the ground for a long time without getting up.

At that time, Xiao Wu had already had the idea of leaving, but in addition to pedaling a moped, he didn't know what else to make money in other professions, if he could be as smart as Jiang Sheng, go to the pharmacy as a two-year apprentice to teach himself medical skills, and it would not be bad to open a medical clinic, but now Zhang Xiumei's illness costs money, and Jiang Rong's school tuition is also a lot, so he can't leave.

Xiao Wu remembered that his first guest was a middle-aged man with glasses, who looked very cultured, he was going to work in a company near Chongwenmen, Xu was the middle-aged man was pressed for time, so he urged him to hurry, Xiao Wu had to run with all his strength, and it didn't take ten minutes to run from Hutong Street in total, and the man also gave an extra five yuan for consumption.

After that, Xiao Wu memorized the route map of the Dongcheng District of Beiping City every day, and he was probably familiar with it after running for a month.

At that time, Xiao Wu and the group were already acquainted, and everyone began to make fun of Xiao Wu, and sometimes when he was napping in the shade of a tree, the fire would beckon the passing woman to look at a large piece of his crotch bulging, and once a young woman passed by, so she ordered Xiao Wu and asked him to drive him home.

Xiao Wu woke up, wiped his saliva, and drove the woman home in everyone's laughter, and when he arrived at the door, Xiao Wu said that the fare was two yuan, and the woman said that she didn't have any money on her, so she asked Xiao Wu to follow her to the house to get it, and Xiao Wu didn't think much about it and followed the woman into the house.

The woman was overjoyed when she saw Xiao Wu following up in the house, saying that Xiao Wu was tired and sweating profusely, so she asked Xiao Wu to wash her face first.

Xiao Wu didn't understand the amorous style and said no need.

The woman chuckled, and chatted with Xiao Wu, saying that she was not a few years older than Xiao Wu, and married into her husband's family a few years ago, and her husband's family drowned in the river with a few small hair, leaving her orphan and widow, these days the child is at her parents-in-law's place, and she is alone at home, lonely and unbearable, and has nowhere to go.

The woman took off her coat as she spoke, revealing her filament clothes, Xiao Wu's eyes looked at it greedily, and her face immediately turned red, and the woman saw Xiao Wu's expression even more presumptuous, and said some obscene words in her mouth, and then closed the door and touched Xiao Wu.

The woman was overjoyed when she touched Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu gasped, and wanted to be presumptuous, but he suddenly remembered Jiang Rong in his mind, and forced his desire to suppress it, and ran away from the door.

The woman was so angry that she scolded him, saying that he was useless at a young age, and that he didn't need money to pull a car, and he didn't even want people.
