Chapter 297: Celestial Star Reunion
Xiao Wu was excited for a while when he first arrived at Tianxing, this planet that tens of billions of people in the world yearn for is much more beautiful than imagined, especially the Glorious City that is half-wrapped in a blue sea.
It's just that as soon as this excitement passed, Xiao Wu was faced with a grim reality: he immigrated as a fifth-class citizen of the Federation, to be precise, the fifth-class is a poor, and being poor means having no income.
In Luoning Town, he can also work as a black worker to make a living, but when he arrives on the sky, let alone a black worker, even if you want to pick up garbage and collect waste.
Xiao Wu, Li Dalong and Jiang Hua have one thing in common in their personalities, that is, the more difficult they are, the more they have to fight, and the stronger they are, the more they have to fight.
Xiao Wu knew that the two eldest brothers had worked hard to save money for 6 years for their own immigration, and now he really couldn't afford to open that mouth if he asked for money again.
So he took the few credit points on his body and came to the fifth-class immigration area to rent a low-cost private house, the so-called fifth-class immigration area is actually a slum, the kind of dilapidated wooden house, in fact, it is not as good as a home on the outskirts of Luoning Town.
Although the stars are beautiful and rich, there are also rich and poor, this is not a problem of the federal government, but a problem of human beings themselves, no matter what level of human civilization has developed, society will always invisibly divide the crowd into three, six, nine and so on.
Many years ago, in Beijing, the capital of the Chinese ethnic group, there was a group of people called "Beipiao", who took low salaries, did heavy work, ate simple meals, lived in a basement of less than 10 square meters, gritted their teeth and endured silently.
Then some people will ask, "Why do you bother?" It's better to live in your hometown than here.
The situation in Guanghui City is a bit like Beijing in history, and Xiao Wu is a very ordinary member of the "North Drift" army. He lived in a damp house, munched on shriveled bread, and slept on a wooden bed as hard as a steel plate...... He has lived so hard, it is nothing more than to endure humiliation and burden, and he will be able to find an opportunity to soar in the future.
However, the reality is always cruel, because he once had an accident in Luoning Town, he can't lift too heavy objects in his hands, and he dropped out of middle school halfway through, and he has no education, which means that he can't do rough work, and clerical work is even more difficult.
But his days in Luoning Town were not wasted, he learned a lot of mechanical structure, crystal source fusion, and network technology on Jiang Hua's optical brain, so he gritted his teeth and bought a set of maintenance tools and a motorcycle. Sell directly on the streets of the ghetto.
What to sell?
Very simple. I undertake the following business: handling, loading and unloading, lathe, fitter, welder, plumber, bricklayer, sewer dredging, range hood dismantling and washing, air conditioning pipe installation......
In short, he will do what he can do, and as for the price, you can just look at it and give it to the employer.
Poverty is not a shameful thing, it is shameful to be dirty and lazy. Xiao Wu was very diligent in his first year at Tianxing. But it was also very difficult. In the hardest time, he was once woken up in the middle of the night on a heavy rainy night to help his employer repair an old large crystal engine, and he was drenched in torrential rain all night due to a great failure. After returning from work at dawn, he had a high fever, and the high fever almost killed him, and he lay in a coma in a rental house for two days, and finally miraculously got better, and finally his life should not be extinguished.
After the difficult period of the first year, the situation improved dramatically in the second year.
Because Xiao Wu was diligent and always shouted, he gradually became famous in the 23rd district of the slum, and everyone here knew that the owner of the maintenance stall on Street 11 was a hard-working man with clear eyebrows, and the young man was not only polite and humble, but also had a very cute smile, and the people in the slum took good care of him.
Later, Xiao Wu's business slowly became bigger, he bought a shop on No. 11 Street, rented three small smart phones, and opened a small shop, the name of the store is "Longhua Maintenance Shop", which is to thank the two eldest brothers for their selfless support and dedication behind him.
Xiao Wu's idea is to slowly save money, do business while studying, and move to the first-class civic area in the city when he has money in the future, and then take the two eldest brothers to Tianxing to settle down, and then open a restaurant for Brother Long and a business company for Brother Hua, which is the wish of the two eldest brothers all along, and the reason why it has not been realized is because it has been delayed for six years for his wish.
As for the girl he has been thinking about, he doesn't have any plans for the time being, after all, the two eldest brothers are still working hard to raise money in Luoning Town, and they don't know when they can come to Tianxing, and I will do my best to help them immigrate.
However, life is so wonderful, when you are struggling to pursue, your wishes are unfulfilled, but when you don't want to care, the person you want to see comes.
One sunny afternoon, Xiao Wu received another business, a company in the city has a problem with the insurance system, because the company is not large, reluctant to pay a lot of money for a professional insurance company to repair, so I had to ask the number of the wild road to come and see, even tried three masters, and finally someone recommended to the boss: the boss of the Longhua maintenance shop on No. 11 Street, District 23, the fifth-class immigration area, has good skills, why don't you come and try?
After finishing work, Xiao Wu happily took the elevator downstairs with a toolbox, and when he walked out of the door of the building, a lady with an elegant temperament came to the side of the flower bed.
Time seemed to stop at that moment, and both of them looked at each other in a daze, as if they couldn't believe that after 7 years, they could still meet each other again.
7 years ago, both of them were extremely young students in the middle school of Camellia Star Snow City, and 7 years have passed, and the little girl who used to blush when she spoke in a floral skirt has now turned into a tall, glamorous and beautiful workplace elite.
Xiao Wu, who used to be ignorant and shy, actually appeared here in the clothes of a maintenance worker, the only thing that has not changed is Xiao Wu's expression when he laughs, still childlike innocence and friendliness, such a smile has been stationed in Shen Tong's mind for a long time for 7 years, and it has never been waved away.
"Xiao Wu!" Shen Tong finally smiled, "Why are you here?" ā
Xiao Wu smiled: "I didn't expect to meet you here!" ā
This afternoon, Shen Tong specially asked for leave to chat with Xiao Wu in the coffee shop on the street, and from this afternoon onwards, Xiao Wu would appear on time downstairs in the building every evening after work.
Of course, Xiao Wu will not wear dirty maintenance worker clothes to wait for Shen Tong, his clothes do not have a few decent sets, and they are not famous brands, but the clothes he wears on his body are always clean and tidy, and he can't see that this is a person who has lived in the slums for a long time, but Shen Tong's colleagues can see that Shen Tong's boyfriend is not a rich man, but Shen Tong likes to stick to his boyfriend very much, and always happily holds Xiao Wu's arm, talking and laughing along the way.
Colleague Fang Fang was very surprised, she and Shen Tong were not only colleagues, but also friends, she knew that there were many people who pursued Shen Tong, but Shen Tong had always been above the top, and he had always refused, how could he fall in love with this kid?
But later I heard that the two were classmates in their first love, Fang Fang was also relieved, and then Fang Fang also liked Xiao Wu very much, this young man smiled very kindly, and was very kind and friendly to people, no one would hate such a person.
Shen Tong does not have any dislike for Xiao Wu who lives in the slums, she has always believed that it is not a shameful thing to support herself, it is glorious to earn money with her own labor, and she is very confident in the future of herself and Xiao Wu, she believes that Xiao Wu will leave the slum sooner or later.
On the contrary, she was very interested in how Xiao Wu immigrated to Tianxing, and Xiao Wu did not hide it, suing her that she still had two eldest brothers suffering in Camellia Star.
After listening to Xiao Wu's story, Shen Tong was also infected: "Xiao Wu, although the two of them are not your big brothers, they are actually your big brothers, in order to make up the 50 million credits, I think they have suffered a lot." ā
As soon as Li Dalong and Jiang Hua were mentioned, Xiao Wu's eyes were a little red: "I heard Brother Long mention that they were deceived in their first business, and they were wronged by the police station. ā
So Shen Tong mentioned yƬ, our marriage has to be postponed for two or three years, and we must save money together to bring Brother Long Hua to Tianxing to settle down, we can't let them spend the rest of their lives in Luoning Town, we want them to live a good life, these two big brothers of yours are also equivalent to my biological big brothers, we can't take care of our own happiness and abandon them.
Although Shen Tong does not dislike him, Shen Tong works for a large group company, serving as a middle-level manager, with a considerable income, and a high salary of 1.5 million credits per month.
Xiao Wu's repair shop business is also not bad, with a monthly income of 200,000 points, if the two maintain family life after marriage, the total monthly income of the two of them is nearly 2 million points, which is definitely enough to start a family, but if you want to get Li Dalong and Jiang Hua to Tianxing, this money is far from enough, it is impossible not to eat or drink for two or three years!
Money is still a trivial matter, the key is that Li Dalong is an alien refugee and does not have legal federal citizenship, and to obtain this qualification, it is not something that can be done with money.
Shen Tong's mention made Xiao Wu's heart disease disappear immediately, but everyone, including Shen Tong herself, did not expect that her mention would make things change dramatically in the future. (To be continued......)
