The sky of Daye City has more dark clouds.

It is light at first, but gradually thickened, entrenched above, and lingering.

Li Changjing suddenly became busy.

Over there, I often don't see anyone all day, and the six salesman ladies have long been accustomed to his existence, after all, the store manager is kind to people, good at chatting, knowledgeable, and the most important thing is that he is handsome, and he can't smile when he smiles.

Only Lin Jia knew that he was actually locked up in the courtyard house, and he didn't know what to tinker with, and from time to time there would be a sound of a hammer hitting a hard object, or some burning "snort" sound. However, more often, the strong medicinal fragrance will spread throughout the courtyard, although Lin Jia does not have a Dao fetus, he is also half a person in the cultivation circle, guessing that Li Changjing should be refining medicine.

In today's courtyard, most of the neighbors have moved away, after all, the people who live here are basically the elderly, and their legs and feet are inconvenient, some are picked up by their children, and some are sent to nursing homes.

Although he was reluctant, Li Changjing was still ready to advance a salary to Lin Jia, so that she could make a down payment on a villa in a more prosperous section, get to know some new neighbors as soon as possible, and broaden some interpersonal contacts, so that it would be convenient for Duoduo to find more friends.

Qingtan called back in Herbin, saying that the opening of the branch was going well, the location of the store had been decided, she and Xu Huairou had communicated with the Ice Clan, and decided to let the Ice Clan run it personally, and we would send them a certain amount of pills every month, and the Ice Clan could provide us with ten places to enter Tianchi every year in return.

This is a very good deal, and Li Changjing readily agrees.

There are many masters of the Ice Clan, and there are many talents, and it is definitely a good thing to have a good relationship with them.

Before hanging up the phone, Qingtan asked what the situation of Daye City was now?

Li Changjing replied that everything was fine, the Zhang and Du families were no longer pressing step by step, and the situation was very optimistic.

Qingtan thought for a while, and suddenly said in a worried tone: "I've been a little restless lately, and I still have nightmares at night, and I always feel as if something is going to happen...... You have to be careful at home, understand? ”

Li Changjing said with a smile: "Go back to your lordship, you must complete the task!" ”

After hanging up the phone.

Li Changjing came to the courtyard, raised his head and looked at the heavy dark clouds in the sky, and the smile on his face slowly began to disappear. What followed was unprecedented ferocity and ...... Lonely.

————

Suddenly it rained in Daye City.

The rain in winter is the most annoying, wet and cold, and the pedestrians on the street are wrapped up in their clothes and come and go in a hurry, and even the business of the shops is much lighter.

Towards the end of January, there is still a week to go until Chinese New Year's Eve.

Li Changjing called Qingtan and asked them if they would be able to come back for the New Year?

Qingtan said that it is not sure, the matter of opening a branch is very cumbersome, three or five days, more than ten days are possible, if you can't come back in time, on Chinese New Year's Eve, she will try to call Xu Huairou and Shui'er together, open the video New Year's Eve.

Li Changjing smiled and said okay.

That evening, after two days and two nights of drizzle, it finally stopped.

Li Changjing took a red gift bag and returned to the shop, announcing that he would take annual leave from today, thanking all employees for their efforts and dedication, and distributing this year's year-end bonus to them one by one.

A super big red envelope that is nearly half a finger thick.

In addition, this month's salary, he will later instruct Lin Jia to call their bank cards one by one.

The six salesmen cheered and were so moved that they didn't know what to do.

The sales of the pharmacy are simple and easy, mainly because the treatment is good, if it is not really happening in front of them, they dare not imagine that there will be such a great job in the world.

Li Changjing took everyone to have a reunion dinner, and it was not until more than ten o'clock in the evening that it gradually dispersed.

Lin Jia went to the courtyard to pick up Duoduo, went back to the store to pack up her things, and chatted with Li Changjing until late, then reluctantly drove away, she said that she planned to go back to meet her parents this year, although the relationship was very stiff at the beginning, but there was no contradiction between the family members, and no one wanted to be left out all the year round, being a lonely child without a home.

Li Changjing stood at the door, beckoned to her with a smile, and agreed to see her next year.

————

The city was a little more festive.

Families have already begun to put up their lights and prepare for the arrival of the new year.

It's just that in the face of countless reunited families, the fatherless young man can only move a chair to guard the door of the shop, looking at the pedestrians coming and going outside.

That day, Xu Zhenlin, the head of the Xu family, personally drove over and invited him to Xu's house for the New Year, but Li Changjing declined.

In the evening, Huo Qingrou also came to invite, but he still refused.

It's not that I don't want to go, but I don't know any friends I know, what's the point?

On the twenty-eighth day of the year.

The young man bought a lot of red paper and came back, ready to paste Spring Festival couplets on the door of the shop.

It's just that he had just stirred the paste when a strange man with shriveled limbs and shaped like a bamboo pole appeared outside the door.

The young man turned around and smiled, "Why are you here now?" I've been waiting for this for a long time. ”
