Chapter 41: The World Is Changing
"Where are we going to go after eating?" Mo Qing asked, and Yuan Yuxiao knew that he had a long thing to say.
"Guiyuan Park?" Yuan Yuxiao asked rhetorically.
"Just what I want!"
When I went out after buying the order, the boss was still chattering behind me, "Old acquaintance, I said I don't need it, what do you always do so politely, I often come to play if I have nothing to do......"
The two of them left the store, Mo Qing smiled and said, "He either doesn't collect money, or he closes his mouth when he collects it, I can't see the face of a businessman!" β
"What the hell are you doing with this kind of thing!" Yuan Yuxiao also smiled.
"The two of us, I don't know who is more honest than the other." Mo Qing's words are sharp, and he is still as easy and unforgiving as in the past.
Yuan Yuxiao only smiled lightly. He suddenly felt strangely that Mo Qing's students had a strong taste.
On the way to Guiyuan Park, Mo Qing was still rambling, as soon as he entered the park, night fell, his face was also solemn, and he went straight to the theme without foreshadowing, which was indeed his character.
"There are too many differences between me and Qin Qing in all aspects, and I can't say anything for a while. For example, when it comes to the future, the two of us have very different ideas. She hoped that I would follow a career in public office, or simply, make a lot of money in business, and she believed that China would definitely prosper in business in a few years, and that I should catch up with the tide as soon as possible. Of course, she has a vision, but unfortunately, I am not so interested! β
That feeling came up again just now, Yuan Yuxiao always felt that Mo Qing was older than herself, but tonight, why did he look a little immature?
Could it be that I have changed?
Although she knew Mo Qing's character, a kind of regret and melancholy still forced Yuan Yuxiao to exhaustively investigate, "I feel that Qin Qing shouldn't be such a vulgar person, isn't she very talented?" β
Mo Qing slowly took out a box of cigarettes, took one out of his mouth, and handed the cigarette case to Yuan Yuxiao, "Have you learned to smoke?" Yuan Yuxiao was a little surprised.
"You didn't learn to smoke?" Mo Qing's expression was even more surprised than his, "I thought you must have smoked - do your business, smoke and don't need money!" β
Yuan Yuxiao smiled dumbly, "What do you think of our business?" Besides, because you don't want money, you have to smoke? What kind of logic is this? β
Mo Qing also smiled, "I mean don't smoke white, don't smoke!" He lit a cigarette and took a puff, and spit out a straight lonely cigarette in a posture of looking up to the sky and roaring, and then continued the topic just now, "Qin Qingai is good, she said, because talented people can be in the upper reaches of society." Of course, the upstream she said is nothing more than power and wealth, which is not bad, but it is far from my ideals. I have no intention of being an official or a businessman. β
"Break up for such an illusory reason?" Yuan Yuxiao felt a little unsettled, is this a reason or an excuse. In his opinion, the differences between the two should be bits and pieces of reality, not those uncertain futures.
"As I said, we have a lot of differences, even almost all-round, but those trivial things are not worth mentioning in my opinion, maybe you pay more attention to the details of life, but I pay more attention to the general direction of personality and concepts!"
"So how does your old man plan for the general direction of the future?" Yuan Yuxiao suddenly became interested in this, after all, she almost went to college at the beginning, how will this old friend who has been in college for a year plan for the future, maybe if he is in college, his thoughts will be similar.
"I want to do something practical! Use what you've learned to do something practical! After graduating, I tried to be assigned to a textile factory, you know, my mother was a textile factory, I was very impressed by her noisy and dirty working environment since I was a child, I was determined to grow up to change the working conditions of my mother - and textile workers like her with my own knowledge, not to work three shifts, not to stand and walk so tired every day, this idea has not changed until now! β
Yuan Yuxiao unconsciously put her arm on his shoulder and said sincerely: "You are a person, although you are sometimes very arrogant and selfish, but in your so-called general direction, you can still be regarded as a good young man with ambitions!" After thinking about it, he continued, "But why do I think you're a little bit out of touch with reality......"
Mo Qing's expression was still solemn, "If I said this a year ago, would you think I'm angry?" β
"I don't know ......" Yuan Yuxiao thought to herself, this really can't be "if".
"You are slowly changing, of course I am also changing, the world is changing, I only hope that one thing will not change, between you and Xiaolu!"
Saying this, Yuan Yuxiao's heart slipped and she almost slipped. If his hand-in-hand with Xiaolu turns out to be a kind of mission, the pressure will be great. Thinking that Xiaolu had not contacted him for more than a week unprecedentedly, he suddenly became more and more unsteady.
Now he only thinks that the letter sent out in the morning can reach Yu Xiaolu as soon as possible.
They had been chatting in the park before leaving at about two o'clock in the morning. Yuan Yuxiao couldn't fall asleep when she got home, and when she took a nap, the sky was already bright, so she simply got up and went to the market, and tried to catch up with Jin Daotong.
When I arrived at the Shiliangtang market, it was just after six o'clock, and the market was already bustling. Sure enough, Jin Daotong has not yet arrived. Yuan Yuxiao thought to herself, and finally grabbed a time when she arrived at the market earlier than Jindaotong. Now that he is here, he should just do it first, and if he can collect the meat tax in this market alone as soon as possible, see what kind of expression Jin Daotong will have to greet him.
After closing the market, it was almost seven o'clock, and there was still no shadow of Jindaotong, which was a bit abnormal. "Xiao Yuan, why don't you see Xiao Jin today?" Even Director Han came over to ask.
"I don't know, did he go to other markets today, then he should have said hello to me yesterday first......
"There must be something going on at home, an activist like him will not be absent from work without special things." Han Changchang said.
At this time, the old man Wang, who collected the management fee, came to him and whispered: "Xiao Yuan, that Li Yanju who sells dry goods, do you want to take care of her, her lover had a car accident last month." It's quite difficult. β
Yuan Yuxiao thought about it, last month's incident, this month, we ran the market every day and didn't listen to you, why am I alone here today, you just said. He felt a little awkward in his heart, but he still didn't want to refuse, thought for a while, and said, "I'll discuss it with Jin Daotong." β
"Oh, okay, please."
"It's okay, it's okay."
As soon as Lao Wang turned around, Yuan Yuxiao thought to herself, I don't know how Jin Daotong will answer this Lao Wang.
Suddenly remembered that there was a phone call in the market office, so I simply called the bureau to see that Jin Daotong was not there. Now that he is very familiar with the old man Wang, the head of the Han field, he said to borrow the phone, and the head of the Han field said that it only works.
I dialed over, and it was Uncle Wang who answered the phone in the communication room, and he said that he was looking for Jin Daotong, and Uncle Wang said that it was only seven o'clock, and it was not yet time to go to work. Yuan Yuxiao put the microphone wistfully.
At this moment, in the communication room of the sub-bureau, Uncle Wang had just finished the call from Yuan Yuxiao, and the head of the white unit entered the gate of the sub-bureau.
The head of the white unit usually arrives at the branch very early, and when he is old, he doesn't need to sleep much, so he wakes up early, so it is better to go to the office early than to sit at home.
"Chief Bai, I had a few calls to you in the morning, and I started to make a fuss at six o'clock, so I didn't sleep yet." Uncle Wang said.
"Whose phone is it?"
"A girl's phone ......"
"Is it Bai Huanhuan?" Chief Bai thought of his daughter who had just gone to study in a foreign country, if it was her, there must be something urgent to call so early, and he felt a little uneasy.
"I'm familiar with your family's Huanhuan's voice, it's not like ......" Uncle Wang didn't finish speaking, and the phone rang again in the transmission room, and the white chief rushed in with an arrow.
"Please find the white chief!" The white chief picked up the microphone, it was really a girl's voice, but the voice was very unfamiliar, obviously not his daughter.
"I am! Which one are you? What's the matter? The White Chief secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, hello! Do you have a ...... Colleague's name is Kim Daotong? β
"Yes, what's wrong with him? Do you have something to take off today? "When the white chief heard that it was Jin Daotong, his professional instinct came up.
"No, he, he was arrested by the police station......"
"What?" The white strand that had just breathed a sigh of relief was startled.
"Like, it seems to be for a test certificate......
Chief Bai reacted very quickly, "Oh, I see, which police station?" β
"Guiyuan Road Police Station, the phone number is ......" The girl called a number.
"Oh, I see, I'll get in touch right away!" As he spoke, the chief of the white unit took out a pen from his old leather bag and wrote down the phone number on the wall next to him.
The other party hung up the phone. Didn't even say goodbye or anything like that.
Chief Bai put down the phone, glanced at the number on the wall again, and was about to dial it, but the phone rang again.
"Uncle Wang? Is the white chief coming to work? Asked on the phone.
"I'm Run Off!"
"Oh, Chief Bai, I'm Jin Daotong......"
ββAt the same time when Bai Guchang answered the phone, Yuan Yuxiao had already walked out of the Shiliangtang market, Jin Daotong had not yet come, and he was not in the sub-bureau, Yuan Yuxiao didn't know whether to continue to wait here, or go to other markets. After thinking about it for a while, it is better to go to his house to have a look, anyway, his house is not far away.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Jin Daotong's house, he saw his mother hurrying out. Yuan Yuxiao called out to her aunt and asked if Jin Daotong was not at home. "Oh, yes...... It's you," he had only been there once, and Jin Daotong's mother had obviously forgotten his name, "Daotong, this kid, didn't come home all night, I don't know which classmate he went crazy again, and he wasn't afraid of causing trouble to other people's families!" β
"Oh, then I'm leaving!"
"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry to go to work, so I won't leave you to sit!"
"You're welcome, goodbye!" Yuan Yuxiao turned around and walked a few steps, Jin Daotong's mother followed up again, and asked quietly: "Do you know, did Daotong start to fall in love?" I didn't come back all night! β
Yuan Yuxiao remembered that Jin Daotong said that he didn't have a girlfriend yet, "No, no!" β
"You guys, you like to cover each other, I don't know if you can't tell the truth!" Kim Do-tong's mother smiled and said, "I'm going to be late, goodbye, I'll come to the house more in the future!" β
"Okay, okay, thank you, Auntie!"
Since Jin Daotong didn't go home all night, I'm afraid that he won't come for a while, so he can only go to the market alone today. Yuan Yuxiao rode to the next market with some interest.
After running through the four markets, although I usually collect some scattered tax money with tax stamps, I still feel very bored when I go to work to run the market. Yuan Yuxiao didn't bother to go to other places, so she rushed back to the sub-bureau early.
As soon as I entered the office, I saw Jin Daotong, Liu Shucheng, Li Zhuo, and Bai Guchang all there. The expressions of several people were a little strange.
"Jin Daotong, ...... you today" Yuan Yuxiao asked urgently, and suddenly closed his mouth again.
Jin Daotong's eyes were a little bloodshot, but he was still in good spirits.
"Xiao Yuan is back, just in time, we are having a small meeting." Bai said.
Yuan Yuxiao sat down next to Jin Daotong.
"Something happened to Kim last night, I just said that. It's good that you work actively, but when you go out at night to collect taxes, you're still afraid of safety problems, and I hope you don't do it again in the future. β
Yuan Yuxiao looked at Jin Daotong, although she didn't know what happened to him, but fortunately, the latter sentence may be regarded as a theme of this small meeting - you can't collect taxes at night, and you must pay attention to safety. He understood that, and that's about it.
I don't know what happened to Jindaotong's tax collection last night? Is it still a security issue? Car accident? Rob?
The white chief took a slow puff of his cigarette and said slowly, "As for the issue of the inspection certificate, I have already talked about it, and I will not repeat it. In short, if something happens during the daytime work because of the inspection certificate, you can at least contact the sub-bureau immediately, and it is not difficult to solve it. So the key is to stay outside of eight hours, and individuals don't act alone! β
Yuan Yuxiao thought about it, it turned out to be the inspection certificate, the inspection certificate...... It can really happen...... Because it's not very formal, it's caught by taxpayers? It's not going to be a mess all night, is it?
Chief Bai slowed down a little, and then said: "In two days, the work permit will be issued, so that your inspection certificate will not be used." That's the end of it. It's a good thing that you've been very motivated lately, and in that sense alone, it's commendable. I passed by the Shiliangtang market yesterday, went in to see the head of the Han field, I heard that Jin Daotong's group is doing well, the head of the Han field said, the businessmen in the market know that there is a Jin Mengzi who has come here recently, see the meat and drag the meat, see the fish buckle the fish, advance and retreat in a degree, soft and hard do not eat, spread the gods, it is said that they are quite afraid of you! β
"It's not my credit alone, it's Yuan Yuxiao who did it with me!" Jin Daotong hurriedly confessed.
"Don't listen to him, I didn't do anything, really! It's all done by Jin Daotong alone, and I only hide behind to collect money! Yuan Yuxiao was even more anxious to confess.
"It's not interesting for you to say that, as if I told a lie in front of the white chief!" Jin Daotong said.
"It was supposed to be......"
"Okay, okay, all good! I know what to expect! The white chief happily interrupted Yuan Yuxiao's words, "Today I have to tell you a good news, from next month, there will be a commission reward of twenty yuan, which will be distributed to your bazaar group, as long as you complete the task, of course, you should definitely complete the task!" So this bonus is basically in your pocket! β
